It's great to see how much our Stella loves being with you both, and we can tell she misses her friends when she comes home. Thank you, Justin, for taking such good care of our little one! You are the best!!!”
“Eliza goes above and beyond! The dogs were happy and active with the other dogs staying there. Eliza has a doggy door from the living room to the backyard, so I am sure the dogs made good use of it!”

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Heather! She’s our go-to sitter whether we’re gone for the day or away for two weeks. We completely trust her with our precious fur baby, and it’s clear our dog feels right at home with her and her family. Thank you, Heather, for always keeping us updated with sweet pictures while we’re away. We’re so grateful for you! ❤️”
“Jessica was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and treated him like her own. He was so happy and comfortable with her that I don’t think he even missed me! 😂🐾 I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. 💕”

“Zorro's time with Sarah was incredible! He had a wonderful time. She was very conscientious to make him feel loved and comfortable. Sarah knew this was his first experience with a new sitter and sent pictures and videos to show how happy and content he was. His appetite was good and he slept well through each night. I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.”

He went out of his way to give her chicken in her food and she even gave him hugs before we left when I came to pick her up💕”
“Brittany was so sweet with our pups. She was patient and kind and understanding when one of our dogs developed an UTI right before their stay. Would definitely recommend and go back!”
“Bailee’s communication is phenomenal! She responds fairly quick and gave us constant picture updates of our fur baby’s progress. Ozzy seemed to have made himself at home and had fun there because he came back sleepy, which is good for us! :)”

I always prioritize safety by supervising interactions, keeping a clean and comfortable environment, and following your pet’s routine closely.

I will definitely use her services again.”

About: We have had pets for as long as I can remember. Caring for animals brings me so much peace and joy, I am definitely the type of girl to pick up any dog or cat from the side of the road and take care of it!! I currently work part-time as a Licensed Esthetician. I just started in January, so my books aren’t quite as full as I need them to be, but I know that comes with time. I’m wanting to start dog/cat sitting to help me with my financial struggles and fill any extra time I have in my schedule! My dogs aren’t very sweet when it comes to meeting strangers pups, but when I’m watching puppers at clients houses I allow them to run their little tails off for a good amount of time outside (if there is a fenced in yard of course). I am definitely an outside girl so I love to just grab a book and sit outside with them, no matter the weather. If walks are needed, all I need is my Crime Junkie podcast and I’m good to go!
About: I’ve been taking care of sweet pups for awhile. They deserve good company (& treats;) I have two mini Aussies and they are my children, so I know exactly how i’d want them to be treated while I was gone! With my own dogs I have weekly and daily routines. I do work at the hospital once a week, so on those days routine changes. We make it work!! Walks and treats are important, as well as just being their company. While they are missing you, I will do my best to keep them occupied with lots of love and fun.

Typically, I feed them and give them fresh water, then take them for a good walk and when we come back I like to get a little play time in.

I understand that every pet is an individual with different likes and care needs. Assuring that our furry family members get the care they need is top priority.
About: I’ve taken care of many different animals over the past 13 years. I have vet clinic experience and I’m certified in pet CPR and First Aid. I’m available basically any day and any time. Only have a few things to do every week, but I shouldn’t be gone for more than an hour at a time. I will follow your instructions and make sure the dogs get plenty of outdoor time and potty breaks. I can give medication and I also have the patience for puppies and older dogs.
About: I've had all kinds of pets my whole life. Dogs, chihuahua, labs, mix breeds, pomeranian. Cats, I currently have 3 sweet girls. Rabbits, ferrets, birds, fish, snakes, frogs, etc... I promise I will love, nurture, and protect your baby like they're my own! My babies wake me up every morning for breakfast. They're very spoiled. My husband works from home so they have someone to love on them while I love on yours! Ask about they're allergies and medical conditions if any, food, toys, snacks, meds, and any other important information. Their routine, favorite places to walk, likes and dislikes in general.
About: Great with puppy training, walking, and playing! I Own 3 dogs and love all the different personalities and fun dogs bring! I’m patient and willing to work with anything from potty training to tricks. Will walk, care for, and cuddle your fluffs! My availability is pretty open for the summer (I’m a teacher). Starting in August, I will be limited to evenings and weekends. We can work together to find a time that works, or even a weekly occurrence for care or walks! I am more than willing to follow instructions for care in your home. I’m very familiar with being cautious with letting pets out, feeding, etc and will pay close attention to your pet and our surroundings at all times.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth! I was always surrounded by at least two, and couldn’t wait to have my own. I was obsessed with “The Dog Whisperer” at an early age and fully planned to become a dog trainer at 18 (seriously!). In HS, I acquired over 500+ hours at my local animal shelter. I’ve owned and trained 4 dogs in the last 10 years! I have the most experience with herding breeds (shelties, border collies, aussies, etc), but I have been around all kinds of dogs, big or small. I also have a VERY high energy BC myself, so I understand the kind of work it takes to make sure they’ve worked off their excess energy. I bike with my pup and have a lot of experience biking with two at the same time, so rest assured your dog will be good and tired staying with me ☺️ I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pets when you need an extra hand! If you’re in the area and think we’d be a good fit, let me know! I recently moved to the Tyler area to do my master's online! I’m a serious homebody and have a flexible schedule. Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are typically pretty open! I have a fenced yard and a doggie door for total access! My pup can teach them how to use it if they’re unfamiliar. The backyard is very safe and clean.
About: Hi, I’m Alyviah! I’m 24, a veteran, and a lifelong animal lover. My crew includes two mini schnauzers, two cats, and a banana ball python, so caring for different personalities and species is part of my everyday life. I’ve had dogs big and small throughout my life. For the past 4 years, I’ve provided walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and boarding for dogs, cats, and reptiles. I’ve also rescued and fostered stray animals and volunteered with local adoption centers. Life can be unpredictable, so I’d love to help when you need an extra hand. I would love to create new memories with your furry, feathered, and scaly babies and hopefully become your go-to gal! Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days, including weekends, allowing me to provide reliable care when needed. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and following their routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their normal routine and make their time away from their owner as stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. I also believe communication is important, so I like to provide updates and photos when possible. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for.
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. Everything from chickens to iguanas, but I’ve always had a love for dogs. I’ve been volunteering at the spca since I was eleven, and now I would like to care for animals in home. I am currently very part time, only working about 10-15 hours a week at my job, that gives me plenty of time to care for your fur baby, with undivided attention or last minute cancellations. My apartments are very pet friendly with plenty of greenery and walking space. Dogs (or cats) will be supervised at all times, and cared for thoroughly.
About: I have taken care of the neighbors dogs and my friends and families animals. I walk them, feed them, wait around while they go outside and run. I am flexible during the summer and can come anytime. during school year I can come after 3:30pm. I have my own vehicle to go to and from. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam. I can take your animals on walks around my neighborhood or yours or to the dog park.
About: I am reliable, caring & flexible when it comes to accommodating yours & your pets needs while you are away. I have been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life so I understand the love & care that your fur babies require! As a former kennel technician, I have years of experience with various breeds of dogs of all sizes. I am also highly experienced with kittens and cats of all temperaments. While you are away, I am always available to provide you with updates via text, pictures, emails or calls! Rest assured that your fur baby will be happy & loved! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me! **Please check availability calendar as schedule may fill quickly during summer :)** Availability subject to change. Please reach out and we can discuss a schedule that works best for you and your pets! I like to spend as much time playing with and loving on pets as I can to ensure they feel relaxed, cared for and to also get out any energy that builds up between visits. They will be fed according to your preferred feeding schedule and will have plenty of potty breaks through out the day. However, because accidents do happen, your house will be checked during each visit for any "gifts" left between visits & will be cleaned thoroughly.
