About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I grew up with a family dog, so caring for pets has always been part of my daily life. Throughout high school, I also worked at a boarding kennel where I gained hands-on experience caring for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs. During that time I helped with feeding schedules, cleaning, administering basic care, and making sure every dog got the attention and exercise they needed. Whether your dog needs walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, my goal is to make them feel comfortable and keep their routine as normal as possible. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I manage an Airbnb property and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and plenty of attention. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or their own home. In both environments, I prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I live in a lovely gated community with a great street for dog walking. I would also be happy to walk your dog on the seawall or on the beach and will even send you pictures of your pup throughout the day!

I am a very reliable and responsible person and will always treat your animals and home with the utmost respect. I hope that you would choose me to take care of your fur babies and look forward to spoiling them with snuggles and long walks on the beach. Even timid rescue dogs take to me, as I feel that animals can sense good energy. :)

I have also helped neighbors, clients, family, and friends watching their babies. I have owned animals since childhood. Pets have become my life!

I can come over when you need me to. I’m flexible when it comes to scheduling Right now, I don’t have any pets. I get my dog and cat fix by visiting friends that have pets. Your pet will be treated like he/she is my pet.
About: Let me be honest, years ago, I would have never considered myself a cat person. Then, my sister approached me to adopt her 8 year old calico and the rest is history. I feel in love with Doonie and we became the best of friends. She was the sweetest, and sometimes, most loving creature on the planet, and other times she just wanted to do her own thing and I can completely understand that. Simply, I can relate. Ha! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their feline friends over the years. I easily adapt to the kitty and can be as hands on as he or she needs, but I can also read them well enough to understand when they do not want to be bothered. Following feeding instructions and cleaning a litter box will never be an issue. If administering medications is necessary, I have experience with this as well.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8 years old and have cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, from small to large dogs, and I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs.

About: As a family very familiar with farms I've been around a multitude of animals from large livestock, goats to rabbits, cats and dogs from a very young age. I absolutely adore going above and beyond for your pet! Every animal I interact with is going to get the same premium treatment my pets do. I worked in a vet office as a veterinary technical assistant during my senior year as well. I am currently a student going to Texas A&M Galveston for my Bachelor's and Masters degrees, I plan to go fly planes into hurricanes for data collection! I have classes late into the day Tuesday and Wednesdays but besides that I am very available for early mornings before 10 and afternoons after 130! weekends are on a case by case basis. I live in a dorm but am more than happy to take your fur baby to the park or stay in your home and the safe environment they know!
