“Heather was awesome and helpful with last minute changes. My dog looked happier coming home than other daycares I’ve tried! She was definitely worn out and sleeping alllll day when I got her home.”
“This was our first time leaving our little dog with someone we didn’t know. Robin was fantastic, we went on a cruise and she sent an update within a couple our on how our little girl was doing along with pictures. And updated us again before we got back really put us at ease. Will definitely use her again, highly recommend.”
“Skylar was great!! She was super accommodating, communicative, and sent daily updates of how my pup was doing. Everything went smoothly and I would recommend her to others!”
“She was so good with my boy!! My dog is a lil toot but she had no problem catering to his special perks! She frequently sent me pictures and updates which made me feel 10x better being miles away! My dog felt very comfortable and safe at her house and he was always was able to exert his puppy energy! Highly recommended her as a reliable sitter ❤️❤️”
“Jennifer went above and beyond taking care of Daisy. We have never left her for more than a few days and she always gets anxious when we do, Jennifer made sure she felt right at home in her home. We will definitely use her afain when we travel.”

“I cannot even adequately express what an amazing experience this was - when you board your pet you want them to go with someone who treats them as well as you do. In this case, I believe Elizabeth actually treated him better than us! He was living in the lap of luxury at her home and my husband and I joked that we were going to have to really work hard to convince him to come home with us. I would not hesitate to book with Elizabeth again.”
“Flor was awesome! Very accommodating, well communicated and very patient when it came to my dogs needs. Will definitely book with her again when we’re back in town.”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Thank you so much for caring for Mabel while I had to travel out of town. I’m so happy she was with someone that loved and cared for her. She is not used to being alone and Sherry was the perfect fit since she is a stay at home mom. I would definitely recommend Sherry and would use her again if I needed a sitter”

“Haylie was great with our three little, energetic dogs. She was punctual and a great communicator. Haylie kept them busy, and sent photos.

About: I have taken care of many cats in my animal sitting career and have one myself. My cat suffers from anxiety and needs special attention so I have experience in that area.

About: Hi there! My name is Haylie and I’m a nursing student at UTMB. I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of nine amazing pups of all different breeds and sizes. Taking care of them every day has given me tons of experience with all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. Since I was unable to bring my dogs to school with me, I’d love to help take care of others! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family! As a nursing student, I’ve learned how to balance responsibility, care, and time management — skills that carry over perfectly into pet sitting. I usually finish my classes around 4 p.m. most days, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet is well looked after, loved, and secure while their owners are away
About: Hi. Our first dog when I was 6, aLab. An Irish Setter joined the family about 7 years later. Since then more dogs and then during the last 5 years some casual cats. I do some driving for my two sons, school, work, and such but the rest of my days are mine. Early AMs not a problem and preferably not later than 10PM. I am currently only offering dog walking and check in visits. Mentally healthy dogs like me. I'm also pretty good connecting with not-so-mentally-healthy dogs. I'm pretty empathic.

About: I know how stressful it can feel to leave your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am a certified Vet Asst with a lifetime of pet experience. After years of caring for pets, I've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. I currently have 3 dogs and 8 cats, including a few fosters. Pet care is my full-time job, so I am available throughout the day. During each visit, your pet will get more than just the basics. They'll get attention, playtime, enrichment, and the care they're used to receiving at home. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I don't just see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, attention, and care.
About: As a family very familiar with farms I've been around a multitude of animals from horses, cows, 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.
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 have always had cats. I am very understanding of their character and can easily figure out what a cat needs or doesn’t. Cats I have owned have been leash trained by myself and have allowed me to cut their hair with clippers. So I understand the personality of each cat.
About: Available most days. Currently have a part time job typically with mid day hours. I’m available to do walks, stop in visits, and possibly boarding and doggy day care. Please let me know any special accommodations/requests your little ones need. Right now I work part time. I have availability throughout my work days, and I'm very available in the evenings.

I do not have any pets of my own. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can take nice walks or drive to the park.
About: I have had lots of pets. From newborns to Seniors. Pets are amazing. Take your dog for walks or just sit with your pet in the sunlight for company I’m retired so I can walk your dog anytime. 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. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to animals, whether that means keeping up with an energetic dog, giving extra care to a shy pet, or maintaining a consistent routine. I truly enjoy being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m a full-time online college student, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and consistent care. As a single mom to a 9-month-old, I spend most of my time at home, so I’m already in a routine that supports being present, reliable, and responsive to pets’ needs throughout the day. Pet sitting and drop-ins align well with my lifestyle, allowing me to balance school, parenting, and caring for animals without conflicting with a traditional work schedule. I’m able to incorporate feeding, playtime, litter care, and companionship into my day while maintaining a calm and structured environment. This also gives me the opportunity to do something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals—while earning income in a way that fits my current responsibilities. I take the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet very seriously. I follow each client’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, litter care, medication if needed, and any specific care guidelines. I approach each pet with patience and respect, allowing them to feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also treat every client’s home with the utmost respect. I keep spaces clean and tidy, follow all house rules, and ensure doors, gates, and entry points are securely handled. I am mindful of security and privacy at all times, and I leave the home as I found it or better. My goal is to provide reliable, trustworthy care so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

I see them as family members who deserve patience, attention, and care.
About: Hi. Our first dog when I was 6, aLab. An Irish Setter joined the family about 7 years later. Since then more dogs and then during the last 5 years some casual cats. I do some driving for my two sons, school, work, and such but the rest of my days are mine. Early AMs not a problem and preferably not later than 10PM. I am currently only offering dog walking and check in visits. Mentally healthy dogs like me. I'm also pretty good connecting with not-so-mentally-healthy dogs. I'm pretty empathic.
About: I have had many animals throughout my life. I have also cared for friends’ animals when they go out of town. Your fur babies will be well cared for with me! I am a stay at home mom to teenage boys, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am home all day most every day, so you can rest assured your pet is getting one on one attention every day of their stay! I have a fenced yard and a 9-pen boarding facility at my home. Each pen has access to a private, fenced potty area and your dog can either participate in group play or have private one-on-one play if they are more shy.
About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs for over 10 years, and I currently have a rescue poodle named Zeke who I’ve had for 3 years. He’s spoiled with homemade meals, gets two walks a day, and plenty of playtime chasing balls. I treat every dog I care for like family—because that’s what they are. My goal isn’t just to walk your dog, but to make sure they have fun, feel safe, and enjoy their time out. I’m attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Whether your pup is high-energy or needs gentle care, I’ll tailor the experience to what they need most. Currently, I’m in between jobs, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to care for your pup throughout the week. I’m available most days, mornings or evenings—just not Sundays, as I observe the day for church and rest. Your dog will always get my full attention when they’re with me! When I walk your dog, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid high-traffic areas, and pay close attention to each dog’s pace, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a slow sniff-around-the-block or a playful, active walk, I tailor the experience to your pup’s needs and treat them like family every step of the way.

About: With 21 years of military service, I bring a unique blend of commitment, discipline, and attention to detail to every aspect of my life. I grew up as part of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), where I gained extensive hands-on experience in raising pets. This foundation in animal care has shaped my practical approach to dog and cat husbandry. Currently, I maintain a diverse array of animals, including a black lab that I personally trained for duck hunting, a cat I’ve leash-trained to go on walks, a turtle, and a small-scale quail farm. My experience has taught me the importance of precision and organization, which I apply to managing my pets, ensuring everything is in top shape and that the animals receive the best care possible. I finish my workday in the early afternoon on weekdays, and I prioritize your pet during my free time. Your pet’s care will always be my top focus. I’m also available for early morning visits to accommodate your schedule. I treat our pets like family. Without children of our own, our 'fur babies' are everything to us. I care for every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give to my own pets.
About: Hi there! My name is Michael (pronounced Michelle) but I go by Niki! As a lifelong animal lover and beachside mama with a heart as big as a Great Dane, I go beyond basic dog sitting. I treat your fur baby like family—because they are. From belly rubs to pup-approved playlists, each visit is personalized, playful, and filled with love. Whether it’s morning zoomies, sunset strolls, or calming snuggles while you’re away, I create a safe, cozy, and joyful experience tailored to your pet’s unique personality. Your dog doesn’t just get a sitter—they get a best friend, a routine they can count on, and a home-away-from-home feeling every time. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s woven into my daily life. As a mama with a flexible schedule, I’m up early and out walking when the world’s still quiet (and perfect for peaceful pup strolls). This isn’t just a job for me—it’s like a calling, a joy, and a part of who I am every single day. I have a big fenced in yard and a friendly, full of energy mini dachshund to keep your fur baby company! I can also easily crate your fur baby, if you request it.

“Heather was awesome and helpful with last minute changes. My dog looked happier coming home than other daycares I’ve tried! She was definitely worn out and sleeping alllll day when I got her home.”
“Skylar was great!! She was super accommodating, communicative, and sent daily updates of how my pup was doing. Everything went smoothly and I would recommend her to others!”
“She was so good with my boy!! My dog is a lil toot but she had no problem catering to his special perks! She frequently sent me pictures and updates which made me feel 10x better being miles away! My dog felt very comfortable and safe at her house and he was always was able to exert his puppy energy! Highly recommended her as a reliable sitter ❤️❤️”
“Jennifer went above and beyond taking care of Daisy. We have never left her for more than a few days and she always gets anxious when we do, Jennifer made sure she felt right at home in her home. We will definitely use her afain when we travel.”
“I cannot even adequately express what an amazing experience this was - when you board your pet you want them to go with someone who treats them as well as you do. In this case, I believe Elizabeth actually treated him better than us! He was living in the lap of luxury at her home and my husband and I joked that we were going to have to really work hard to convince him to come home with us. I would not hesitate to book with Elizabeth again.”
“Flor was awesome! Very accommodating, well communicated and very patient when it came to my dogs needs. Will definitely book with her again when we’re back in town.”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
About: Available most days. Currently have a part time job typically with mid day hours. I’m available to do walks, stop in visits, and possibly boarding and doggy day care. Please let me know any special accommodations/requests your little ones need. Right now I work part time. I have availability throughout my work days, and I'm very available in the evenings. I accept cats as well. So just let me know if there’s a specific time you need me, and I will try and work it out. I can bring your pet into my home, I am in a small condo. I do not have any pets of my own. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can take nice walks or drive to the park.
“Haylie was great with our three little, energetic dogs. She was punctual and a great communicator. Haylie kept them busy, and sent photos. She checked in with questions and updates, and also kept them happy. They were smiling and enjoying their time, as you could see in the photos. I felt confident leaving the dogs with Haylie, and would certainly use her services again. Thank you!”
About: Hi! We're Ashley and Chantelle, a dependable animal-loving couple who treats every pet like family. One of the biggest benefits of booking with us is that Ashley works from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We're also proud pet parents to two dogs of our own—Mylo, who is 8 years old, and Rose, who is 3. Caring for them every day has given us firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the love and attention dogs need to thrive. We enjoy staying active and providing walks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of affection. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, we'll follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. We believe in reliable communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. We believe pets are family. Unless requested by the owner, dogs are not kenneled and are free to relax, play, and enjoy our home just like our own dogs, Mylo and Rose. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Ashley works from home, so pets are supervised and cared for throughout the day with plenty of attention, potty breaks, companionship, feeding, walks, and playtime. After Chantelle gets off work, we continue walks, play, and care together, making sure pets receive consistent love, structure, and attention throughout the day. We prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, pet-friendly environment. At our home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play.

Dog daycare is also available in our home with plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.
“Michelle is absolutely the best! She took amazing care of my fur baby and kept me updated with frequent messages and pictures. I could tell he was being loved and spoiled the entire time. He honestly didn’t even want to come home! I’d recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. She’s truly one of a kind! 🐾❤️”
“Amazing! I have a dog that is a little temperamental and Angelo was willing to give him a chance and did amazing with him. Provide me pictures, videos, and when I checked in he answered me promptly. Will definitely use again. Thank you for taking wonderful care of Hachi!”
“Our boys had the absolute best time with Thi. They were spoiled beyond belief I didn’t think they’d want to come home. Thank you for being amazing with our boys!”
“We couldn't have been happier with Abby's care for our dog. As other reviews have mentioned, she was not only incredibly loving and attentive to our dog, she also did an amazing job of keeping us informed of how our dog was doing. We have an older Doberman that has lived with us her entire life, in the same house, and sometimes requires a little more attention and care (meds, e.g.) so we were a little nervous about leaving her somewhere else for a few days but that nervousness was completely unwarranted. She really did treat our dog as if she was her own. We couldn't imagine leaving our dog with anyone other than Abby going forward and obviously we highly recommend using her to anyone else looking for a a reliable, loving pet sitter.”
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!
