“Amazing sitter for our family fur-baby. Received daily updates with pictures. Calm environment. Amanda was also very responsive and supportive of our highly anxious dog. Marigold spent two weeks with Amanda. We so appreciate her kindness and care.”
“Sandra was THE BEST dog sitter ever! My dogs had a phenomenal time and were so exhausted after they came back (from all the fun and playing!) they slept for a whole day. Haha! Sandra took so many great photos of my dogs and videos of them having fun. It was such a joy to have the dogs somewhere so safe and secure. Her house is PERFECT for dogs and she has a fenced in back yard. She also has a way to separate dogs if a small dog is anxious or nervous around other dogs. Sandra is amazing!!”
“Andrew did great with our dog! We felt like we could trust him with our dog, and he sent regular updates and took him on plenty of walks. We’d definitely use him again. Thank you!”

“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
“I can not put into words how grateful I am to have found Bekah for my dog baby! My first time with an overnight dog sitter and Bekah was wonderful, attentive and caring! I would love to keep her all to myself and dog baby but she must be shared ! If you’re in need of someone to watch j your baby, she’s is the one !!”
“Megan is my go to sitter. My dog wasn't feeling too well on his last visit and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands with Megan. She is also always gracious in any changes that happen in my business travels and willing to work with me. Thanks Megan!”
“Cathrin was kind enough to watch our puppy we had only had a few weeks. He has tons of energy and is hard to keep up with most days. She provided updates and photos during his stay. We are so grateful for her care of him.”
“I highly recommend Candi to watch after your pets! Her setup was great and I got daily updates, and she was very flexible when my schedule changed unexpectedly!! The dogs came home happy and tuckered out from all the fun!!”

About: We have worked with animals in all stages of life. Have helped train in the past. We love dogs and love the opportunity to take care of yours. We will be able to come home for lunch to spend a good amount of time with them mid day. We both currently work full time and are free after 3pm Friday until Sunday evening. We know it can be difficult trusting your fur baby with someone new or just not having them by your side but we would love to do anything to help you and your fur baby feel comfortable with their stay. We have a park right by our house to walk and intact with other dogs. You dog would have the opportunity to run around play on our property where we would take your dog for a walk and play. Although we both work full time we would make your fur babies our top priority. Our house is puppy/ dog proof. We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.
About: Give your dog a vacation! :) Your dog won't have any lack of attention in a home of two dog-lovers and an adorable little mutt named Tiger! We both work from home so we’re able to give attention throughout the day. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and being from the country, we'd usually have six or seven in our family at a time. Tiger loves all dogs, big or small - he's a real dog's dog. Whatever your dog's temperament may be - whether chilling on the couch, or going for a walk or run, we will be happy to accommodate. We only board small and medium sized dogs, up to 40 pounds. If your dog is larger, we are open to house sitting at your residence. Your dog will have lots of room to play and relax in our two bedroom, dog-proofed home. We are lucky to have a fenced in back yard and to live in such a walkable neighborhood (less than half a mile from town square). Since we work from home, I'm able to do multiple walks (or jogs, if you are so inclined) a day. I will also send you updates and photos so you can relax and rest assured that your canine friend is in good hands. Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated at night or sleep with us. We also have several plush dog beds throughout the house, but feel free to bring any bedding or toys that will remind them of home.
“Lili took care of our 3 cats while we went away for our honeymoon. She came 2 times a day to care for them. We couldnt have picked a better sitter! She went above and beyond and we didnt have to worry about our kitties while we were away. She was so responsive and went out of her way to get photos of all 3 cats. Even when they hid under the bed! Thank you Lili for everything!”
“Tamaria kindly checked in on my cat when I needed someone very last minute over the holidays. She is extremely fast to respond and sends regular updates, including plenty of pictures. My cat is very shy around new people but warmed up quickly to Tamaria with a few treats of encouragement! I recommend Tamaria and will certainly reach out to her in the future.”
“Jordan went above and beyond to make our cats and parrots comfortable. It was such a relief to know someone was looking in on them and giving them some attention while we were gone!”
About: I've grown up around all kinds of cats, from family pets to barn cats and even neighborhood strays. I recently adopted a kitten of my own and have loved learning even more about them and their personalities. I'd love the chance to meet and care for your cat!
About: I’ve owned and taken care of cats for 20+ years. I’ve worked with a wide range of cat personalities from feral to super friendly. I can understand the social cues from cats and can notice most medical issues early on due to my vet/med background. I have experience administering medications/injections/fluids, and have learned calming methods.
About: I absolutely love animals and am committed to taking care of and loving your pets. I have had an English Bulldog for 3 years now, so I am accustomed to both the playfulness of a puppy and the stubbornness of a bulldog. I have been around the block with doggy health issues and training, so I am more than happy to accommodate special training or care requests. While I do not have an inclosed yard, I would love to take your dog to the dog park or out for walks if requested. I would always have your dog on a leash whenever we are not in an inclosed area. I am willing to board/dog sit two dogs from the same household although my profile says differently. It just depends on the size, breed, and age of the dogs.
About: Over 33 years experience caring for animals. Technician, hospital and boarding experience. Very knowledgeable about giving injections, medications etc. It's very important to me that each clients needs are met. If lounging on the couch or bed is okay with mom and dad I love it. If mom and dad's rules say no furniture, I will follow any guidelines. My passion in life is animal care and treating each one of these amazing fur babies like they are part of my family. I also have extensive knowledge about breeds and the traits they have. They are individuals just like we are and each have different needs. Forming a trusting bond is very important to me. It's an honor to be entrusted with their care. :)
About: I've taken care of dogs of every size .Neighbors, family, friends dogs. My son and I will take them on walks, feed and bathe them. I work full time and like to do this on the side since I dog sit sometimes for friends, family. My son LOVES cats and dogs and enjoys playing with them. His day is made anytime he sees a new pup when he comes home from school. I have a fenced yard and live in a neighborhood where we all look out for each other and our pets. Very friendly and small neighborhood.
“My boy is usually scared around strangers but Kristen was able to pet him on one of her first visits. In addition she was able to get him inside. She left him with my tv onto a channel with birds. Thank you Kristen!”
About: I be taken care of a variety of animals from livestock to house pets for over 6 years.

I can do last mute booking depending on the circumstances I can give your animal(s) any care needed from medical care depending on what the care is to basic care including feeding, training, walking etc.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Vilas
About: I am a stay at home mom and I have 3 dogs of my own. I’ve lived at my husbands family’s farm for a couple of years so I’m comfortable with multiple different animals. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have an abundance of free time. My most busy day is Mondays where I run all of my household errands. I have cables and leashes for dogs that I take care of and I am very open to your animals needs, wether they are at my rv or your house.
About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
“Jaeger had a good time with Reagan. He came home happy but tired. He must have gotten plenty of exercise because it takes a great deal to wear him out. We will definitely be back. Reagan was informative, kind and kept us up to date on how Jaeger was doing.”
“My dog takes a long time to warm up to men, hates peanut butter, and isn’t food motivated. Within the first 5 minutes of our meet and greet my dog was eating peanut butter treats out of his hand and happily getting all the scratches. I have no idea how he did it but my dog instantly loved him. When it came time for the booking my dog jumped out of the car and ran straight for his door with out waiting for me. I got a ton of photos and my dog was very relaxed in all of them. I highly recommend Joshua.”

My name is tamaria I am 24 years old and I look forward to having the opportunity to assist you and your animal needs I work from home, been doing so for years with very flexible working hours on a set Salary so time for other hobbies and side gigs were always an option on the table for me and what better therapy to cure cabin fever from working at home than with fur babies.. :) Any pet in my care, fur babies, reptiles, farm animals, I've experienced working with them all will always and forever gain more than just care from me but genuine love, an additional friend to their life. This will consist of, being lived on, treated with care, long walks, conversations because they are great listeners lol, meds if needed, and any direction of feed that might need to be implied during my services,nevertheless i always put out a fresh bowl of water at end of my service for the animal and lastly play time to burn energy upon owners consent of course and state of dogs health to be able to do so without being in harm to self.
About: My genuine interest and love for my own babies coupled with their happy, carefree, and free-roam attitudes makes me a prime & the right candidate to be your pet's new friend. I have two furbabies that I absolutely love & adore. I understand the importance and severity of wanting them to go... unfortunately, they simply can't for whatever reason. So, you do the next best thing, you hire me. Give me the opportunity to extend my love, adoration and safe environment to your furbaby (canine or feline). If you hire me, worrying about your pet will be the least of your worries, as it should be. Help me to help you give your pet a vacation-like stay while you're away. You'll be glad you did. I'm retired so I'm home all day. I have lots of time to hang, lounge and play with your furbaby(ies) and I'll enjoy every minute In my home and client's home, the treatment is basically the same. Furbabies are given cuddles, hugs, and attention. They are fed, walked and allowed to run around and squabble in the back yard.
About: As a kid I was taught responsibility by caring for our horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish and guinea pigs. I’ve had pets all my life! My mom’s cat almost died of a bacterial infection in her mouth and I’ve helped administer antibiotics to her until she got better. I had a cat who had kidney disease and needed to have IV fluids every week. My other cat had to be mouth fed with a syringe as well as monitored via thermometer up his butt. I have house and pet sit for friends and family that have multiple pets, most recently for a friend that had 6 dogs of all sizes! I am an active individual so walking will be a treat for them and me! :) I have given dogs and cats baths and also cared for dogs in heat. I have a very open and wide range of availability and I am available most days, including weekends and holidays as I rarely ever go out of town. It would be great to develop some long term relationships with new pets and their owners! Repeats are always great but not expected. I will do what I can to work with your schedule and the needs of you and your fur child. I will do my best to maintain consistency and high-level care when it comes to your pet. Each pet is different and I try to get to know each one individually in order to gain their trust and yours and provide the best care possible. Often times, I will send pictures to the pet owner, especially if it is a new client or a pet owner is out of town for an extended amount of time. I am easily reachable and try to communicate clearly about wants, needs, and scheduling. I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to providing a service, but it is not mandatory, especially for last minute bookings! We have a small yard in front and neighbors that will walk their dogs but they are all on leashes and well behaved. We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups! From nervous and anxious dogs to high energy working dogs, I am willing to create a safe and effective boarding/care experience for them. My whole life revolves around my dogs so your pups will be loved and cared for during their stay. I have a schedule that allows me to fit any pet care needs. My dogs get tons of outside times, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day so whatever plan your pup needs we can accommodate! I am flexible on creating a system that works best for you pets. I can house dogs that are not good in crates and well as dogs that need to be crated. I have pet cameras throughout the home so I can keep watch at all times! We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!
About: I've been a dog mom to multiple pups over the years. Plenty of time spoiling them and taking them out on adventures. Sadie and I love hiking and kayaking, or just strolling through the neighborhood. I currently work from home and make my own schedule, so I can easily adjust it to your needs. This leaves plenty of room to hang with my sweet dog and hopefully yours as well. I have a fenced yard and a sweet shorkie that would love play time with your sweet dog. I can keep them separated or allow them to play depending on your comfort level.
“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
About: Hello my name is Cayla. I’m from Houston, Tx and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish). I’m choosing to do Rover so I can build clientele and so I can expand my knowledge on dogs outside my pit bull and a few other breeds I’ve dealt with within my family and friends. Hopefully I’m someone you’ll love and trust around your home and your four-legged best friend. I do work from home and only work 4 days out the week so it's no hassle making sure everything and everyone is doing great. During the booking process I do ask for a routine so I can keep everything consistent. I do have doggie treats, extra blankets, training pads, and doggie toys I keep on stand by. In the morning I will open cages and let them move around freely aslong as im home and awake. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to them aswell, I do work from home so that will not be an issue.
“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”

About: Ive owned two dogs in my lifetime. They were healthy, happy, and well taken care of. I love keeping dogs on their feet up and running, seeing things and enjoying their time with me. I will treat your dog as if it’s my own, they are very cute and smart, I would love to spend time with them :) I go to school and love going on walks in my free time. My classes are fairly spread during the week so ive got alot of time on my hands. I used to take my dogs out to walk twice a day, sometimes three times depending on my availability. I make sure they have as fun of a time as i do when I go on walks.

About: I have watched people's animals before and have had background in dog and cat sitting. I ensure that your animals are in the best care and that they will stay safe and happy when I am caring for them. I’m currently a student at the University of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, with a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time each day to caring for pets. I fit dog and cat sitting into my routine by planning walks, feeding times, and play sessions around my classes. It’s a responsibility I take seriously, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—it keeps me grounded and active. You can count on me to provide consistent, attentive care and make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you're away. I will care for pets by ensuring they get regular playtime, access to fresh, cold water, and food either at all times or according to their specific needs. I’ll also make sure they get outside safety whether that means keeping them on a leash or checking that the yard is secure to prevent them from wandering off. Their comfort and safety will always be my top priority.

“We will definitely be a repeat client! Our girl was so happy to get her visits during the day and she was in constant communication with us! Thank you for taking such good care of her!!”
About: Hello! My name is Jordan and I've been passionate towards all animals my entire life and have experience with a variety of different species. I've worked as an animal care intern at a wildlife rehab and as a kennel technician where my primary duties were to work closely with veterinary staff to provide care for animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience plus a life long history with animals has allowed me to recognize each pet's individual personalities so that I may tailor my care to fit their exact needs. My goal is to treat your pets with respect and warmth in order to ensure their happiness while you’re away. I'm sensitive, flexible and empathetic to the individual needs of your pet so that their time apart from you is happy and stress free. I'm communicative and open so that you can rest assured knowing how much fun your pet is having under my care. As an pet parent of many different species myself, I understand the dedication and love you have for your pets and I understand the desire for an accountable, kind caregiver. I am also able to accommodate any special requests, such as if you would prefer your dog be crated during certain times, if your pet needs medications administered during the day and much more. Additionally, I have experience with invertebrates, reptiles, birds, small mammals, dogs and cats. I’m currently a stay at home mom to two amazing kiddos, so I will have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they need and deserve. I live on half an acre of land with a massive fenced in backyard that will give your babies plenty of space to run around and explore. Additionally, I live in a large 3,200 sq ft home with three living spaces and plenty of bedrooms that can accommodate any pet's preferences. If I’m going to your home, I will be respectful and courteous to any rules and maintain the standard of care you treat your animals with. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for pets in a way that truly fits their individual needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can adjust feeding times, walks, play, and quiet moments based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. This flexibility means my care isn’t one-size-fits-all. If your pet needs more frequent bathroom breaks, extra exercise, or just a little reassurance and companionship, I’m able to respond right away instead of sticking to a strict timetable and I can easily monitor changes in behavior or health. My daily routine may be full, but it’s adaptable—and that makes all the difference in giving pets the individualized attention they deserve. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment where they can relax and follow a consistent routine. When caring for your pets at your home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel comfortable and secure. My hands-on experience working with many types of animals—different species, breeds, ages and temperaments—gives me the confidence to handle everything. Whether you need me to care for your scaly, feathered, or furry friends, my goal is always the same: to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.
About: I grew up in an animal shelter. Sounds crazy right? Well, it's true. My mom has always worked around animals(and still does) so I was always right by her side. Whether it be at animal shelters, helping with adoptions, walking, feeding, giving medications. Anything to be involved ! Then she became a Veterinarian. So of course, when I got old enough, I worked at her clinic. I've truely worked with animals my whole life and have always had animals of my own. I am currently working as an Animal Rescue Coordinator each day but would love to further my pet care business . My fur babies are my children and I treat them as so. You will always be able to find comfort knowing that I will treat your fur babies with the same love and care as my own! My favorite thing to do is spend time with my 3 dogs. A few things we love doing are going to the dog park, playing fetch, frisbee, going to the lake to swim, agility, hiking, and of course getting frozen yogurt! I would be more than happy to spend time with your pup doing these things. I'm sure they deserve it! I can't wait to spoil your pup and put your mind at ease knowing he/she is loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Your fur babies deserve the best! I currently work full time in VetMed but I have Fri-Sun off. This is when I’ll offer pet services. I’m hoping to offer full time care eventually. I care for pets in my home as if they were my own. They are allowed on furniture/beds if the owner is okay with this. I have doggy gates for separation of other animals if needed. Pets are never left unattended in my home. If I must leave for any reason, your pet must be kenneled in my home.
“My dog absolutely LOVED Kimmie from the very first meeting. And my pup can be somewhat reserved around new people so that told me all I needed to know about Kimmie’s ability to connect to pets. Kimmie is very professional, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other household animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I was laid off a few months ago from my last job so I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room. I also live in a reasonably sized home and have two young children that will love and play with them. I will have a crate if you want me to crate your dog. If not, they will be able to hangout with me or on a dog bed! 😊
About: I'm Aubreya and I work from home as a financial analyst. My friends and family have referred to me as a dog whisperer, as I tend to immediately fall in love and build great relationships with fur babies! Plus I know all the best spots to scratch! Over the years I have been a reliable pet-sitter for many friends, neighbors and family members and I would love the opportunity to do the same for you. I currently have a 6 y/o yorkie-schnauzer and a 5 y/o great pyrenees-springer spaniel. My care giving style is relaxed, attentive and loving. I will follow your directions and pet needs to the letter. After completion of my services, I will ensure that your home is left clean and provide you with a detailed report of my stay. Since I work from home, I am able to provide full time care for housesitting as long as you have Wifi. I am typically available on weekends and also able to do drop-ins with a bit of notice. I would ask for detailed information on your pet(s) routine so that I can follow it precisely. Everything that I do is based soley on the need of you and your dog, so that I can provide an accommodating and positive experience.

About: I have owned dogs for over 20 years. I would love to help with your dog sitting, walking needs. I have watched my friends dogs and now I am looking to expand to helping others. I am currently a substitute teacher so I am not working full time and I am available most days to help out for a short time or extended times. I am active and I would love to walk or jog with your dog if that is preferred. I have owned dogs for most of my life and enjoy being around them.
About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.
About: Hi there! I'm Melayna, and I'd love to help out with petsitting and walking. I just moved here with my furry friend and would love to meet yours! I love animals and have had many of my own so I have experience caring for pets. I also love being outside so I can take them on walks and play with them! I am currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule. My schedule allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my routines. I understand how important consistency can be for pets so l am happy to adjust to your pet's needs and schedule to keep them comfortable while you are away! I treat every pet and home as if they were my own. I do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable— whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, or medications. I'm attentive to details, respectful of your home, and always make sure your pet gets lots of love and attention while you're away. I also believe communication is important. I make sure to send plenty of photos and reach out if I need any clarification about your furry friend's care! I am also happy to meet clients and their furry friends before booking to find out if we’re a match!
About: I’ve been a big dog lover since I was practically born! I love all kinds of the dogs, the big, the small, the crazy, and the shy ones! I’m good with medicine and scheduled feeding sessions! I’ve taken care of dogs that have medical issues, such as seizures or joint issues. I can handle the hyper puppies and cuddle the lazy senior dogs❤️ I’m ready to treat your dog with love and patience! Hi! My name is Faith and i’m 20 years old. I work part time right now so i’m free to care for any animal during the day and night! I work at a horse ranch between 3-6 pm during the weekday, so I can be with your dog all day! I do have dogs of my own but they will always stay home! When house sitting or drop in visits, I will make sure everything is safe during visits or outside time! I’m good with crating dogs or doing whatever they need to feel safe around me
About: I love pets!! I have owned many animals growing up and loved each and every one. I currently own 3 dogs and a hedgehog. They are all playful and loving animals!! I would love to take care of, play with, and have fun with your furry friend! Since I have 3 dogs of my own, my days consist of playing tug of war, chase, and doing tricks! I enjoy making a routine for the animals I watch so that they know what to expect while you are away. I understand accidents happen!! If you trust your pet to free roam in your home while you’re away that’s no problem. It is no big deal to me to clean up after your pet. All I ask is anything that your pet will need, you leave out for me to easily find!
About: Since I was young our house was always filled with dogs and sometimes cats. I have been around many different size and breeds of dogs so I am comfortable with all. I am currently a stay at home mom so have a lot of free time to give your fur babies all the love and attention they need. I have a fenced yard for your fur babies to run around and play. I do have one dog, so your fur baby would have to be friendly with other dogs. As well as young children. Your fur baby will get lots of love and attention.
About: I've had pets my whole life. And when I'm not taking care of my own or my parent's dogs, I care for my neighbors and sisters dogs. I also love cats and can take on the responsibilities of those as well. I have also cared for mice, rats, and bunnies so if you have a house full, I'm not afraid of the challenge. I am able to take on walks, give baths, feed, and give allergy medicine as needed. I will also give plenty of play time to your furry family members. I am a uber driver who makes her own schedule, so I can easily work around yours. I do like to drive some during the day, but I can work anywhere within my 100 mile radius so I'll remain close to your home to provide your animal with potty breaks. Dogs and cats both thrive better in their own home with their normal routine. It is a more comfortable experience for your pet and if your pet prefers a sleeping buddy, I can stay overnight. A guest bed or even a sofa is fine for me. I bring my own food, so no need to provide me anything if I'm staying in your home.
About: I've taken care of variety of pets including reptiles. I would love to care for your pets and love on them for you while away I work half the week so I have plenty of free time to help you care for your pets when you are away from them. I am unable to have pets in my apartment. I am trustworthy and care for your pets in your home and you don't haveto worry

“Sandra was THE BEST dog sitter ever! My dogs had a phenomenal time and were so exhausted after they came back (from all the fun and playing!) they slept for a whole day. Haha! Sandra took so many great photos of my dogs and videos of them having fun. It was such a joy to have the dogs somewhere so safe and secure. Her house is PERFECT for dogs and she has a fenced in back yard. She also has a way to separate dogs if a small dog is anxious or nervous around other dogs. Sandra is amazing!!”
“Heather has been such a great sitter for my dog. She is patient and understanding, especially since my dog has separation anxiety. She is super responsive, professional and friendly. I'm so glad I've found such a reliable person & family to watch Ridley while traveling.”
“This was great stay for my 3 dogs.they had a great time . Our sitter was awesome. He kept us well informed was quick to respond and sent several updates . I would definitely use him again and recommend him to others. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Mary has a great set-up with large, fenced yard. My dog Nova can get separation anxiety, but she was a happy pup when I picked her up after a week of boarding - this tells me her needs were met and she felt comfortable. Great service and daily pics!”

“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”

“Mark went above and beyond to care for our girl, Maple. She injured herself just before boarding, and Mark made sure to give her medication faithfully and keep the wound clean and on the path to healing. Maple clearly enjoyed playing with the few well-behaved puppies that stayed with her. Mark’s is a place where your baby will get plenty of attention and be safe and happy. It is hard to overstate the value of a great pet sitter… We enjoyed our vacation knowing our girl was well-cared for! We’ll definitely be back!!”
