“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”
“Great sitter for my pet. Bo was constantly updating me by sending messages and pictures, and my pet loved it as he got to play and interact with his dogs. Overall I definitely recommend Bo as being your choice to trust your pets with.”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Alicia and her family were incredible! Alicia watched Loki while I was traveling for the holidays and really treated him as her own. Loki even came home from his first Christmas with his own stocking of treats and toys which was above and beyond!!! Great communication, flexible with scheduling, trustworthy! I highly recommend Alicia!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!

“Alexis was such a great sitter. She offered to come meet my crew before the appointed time which I really appreciated. She arrived early for the sit and sent photos. My doggos were tired when we got back so I know they had a good time! Thanks Alexis!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛

“Two "additional" COOL points for Margot! Kristoff was treated first class. I will be back and highly recommend Margot & Matt. It was good to hear Krisoff did well with others. MC”
“We couldn’t be happier! They took such wonderful care of dogs while we were away. Getting daily picture updates brought us so much peace of mind, and their communication was always prompt and friendly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! 🐾🐾”
“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”
“Great sitter for my pet. Bo was constantly updating me by sending messages and pictures, and my pet loved it as he got to play and interact with his dogs. Overall I definitely recommend Bo as being your choice to trust your pets with.”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Alicia and her family were incredible! Alicia watched Loki while I was traveling for the holidays and really treated him as her own. Loki even came home from his first Christmas with his own stocking of treats and toys which was above and beyond!!! Great communication, flexible with scheduling, trustworthy! I highly recommend Alicia!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!

“We really enjoyed dealing with Samantha to take care of our little paw baby. She requires a lot attention, but Samantha managed taking care of her while taking care of her own family and accommodated us to pick her up quite late at night. We highly recommend her and look forward to booking her again ??? Thanks so much.”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Mister Pickles! Appreciate you sending all the photos as well. Such a relief to know he was being well taken care of while we were away.”
“We are very happy with the care provided to our puppy. Maya is a very energetic puppy and sometimes it is hard to keep up with her but Brittany seems to have been able to handle her perfectly. Maya was very happy when she got home. Brittany was even nice enough to pick her up and drop her off. I will definitely book with Brittany again should we require a sitter. She seems like she really loves all animals and genuinely cares for them. I highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“We trusted Samantha with our dog and we are appreciative of the great care she provided him. It was our first time away from him and her daily pictures and comments during his stay reassured us that he was well. We will soon be glad to have him stay with her again .”
“I had a great experience with Claudia through Rover! She communicated really well and kept me updated with messages and pictures of my dog, Cecil. I was a little worried leaving him since he’s an older dog, but her experience with senior pets made me feel so much more comfortable. I could tell he was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
