“I want to thank Kristen and her family for taking care of our two dogs while we were away. I was very nervous. That person had never let them with anyone. Appreciate the pictures the continuous correspondence in a timely manner and yes, we definitely will use her again I enjoyed walking through seeing her home and being able to feel comfortable leaving my pets there I would only make one recommendation that I don’t see on the website and that is pet vaccinations although I did observe vaccination tags and microchips I would feel much better knowing that all sites would have on hands current vaccination records as a requirement; especially for Pavo and Bordetella.”
“Kendra took such amazing care of our two dogs while we were on vacation! She was super patient and sweet with one of my dogs that has bad anxiety and takes long to get comfortable with. She even went out of her way to make her scrambled eggs just so she would eat while we were gone! We loved seeing the updates and pictures she would send us daily. We 100% recommend and plan to use her for future stays!”
“Penny loved her stay with Jessica. She took a very good care of her. She constantly kept sending us Penny’s photos and updated us with her routine. She was very quick with the responses. Penny made new friends with Jessica’a pets. Overall, completely satisfied with Jessica :)”
“I’m not sure who is more in love with Patty; my pups or myself.?? Very informative with multiple pictures. Very attentive to both of our needs. A very easy experience with so much compassion and excitement at the same time. Don’t hesitate to embark on using Patty..she is awesome as well as “Uncle Jim”? sharing his chair.?? Will definitely use again!! Very open to your schedule at the very last minute. We love you Patty!!”

“Saphire was super great for us!! It was our first time using Rover so we weren't sure what to expect but in the end it was so helpful! We left our pup Lee-Lou with her over the weekend while we went to New Orleans and Lee-Lou was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with her other dogs. Saphire was extremely responsive with texts and also sent us cute pictures of Lee-Lou having fun. She made us feel very comfortable the moment we dropped our dog off with her. I picked up Lee-Lou on Monday and everything was packed up and Lee-Lou was ready for a nap. :) We will for sure let Saphire watch over our pup in the future!! Thank you Saphire! :) :) Theresa & Taylor, Lee-Lou”

“Lindsey was great! She is super sweet and updated me with pictures through the whole stay. I was super nervous leaving him with someone he didn’t know but she gave me such peace of mind and made me feel better! Will definitely be contacting her again!”
About: I grew up in a home that always had dogs and cats. As I got older, we began fostering dogs and venturing into owning more exotic animals such as hedgehogs, tortoises, mini pigs, pygmy goats, and saltwater fish. Growing up we had a dog that had seizures. Since being an adult and living on my own since 2014, I have owned a French bulldog, two toy yorkies, saltwater fish, a Persian cat (who had a seizure condition), and two standard poodles. I absolutely adore any and all animal and love learning about new species and breeds. I briefly worked for a vet's office as a vet tech in 2015 and a doggy daycare (Planet Canine) from 2012-01/2014. Since 2015 I have dog sat periodically for family and friends. I enjoy taking my poodles on long walks in our neighborhood. I have experience with administering medications for my previously ill and senior dogs such as ear drops, oral tablets and liquid, and eye drops. I am reliable, detail oriented, and a lover of all beings big and small. I am a self-proclaimed helicopter dog-mom. I start my day by caring for my dogs before I get ready for the day. Either me or my husband comes home in the middle of the day and lets them free roam and play for a little while. My 9-5 is flexible which means I can normally leave during the day at any point if and I am typically available after 5 pm most weekdays. I like to be home by 9 pm at the latest. Weekends I am normally available 9am-9pm. Fridays are normally the most flexible day for me. I have a privacy fence, and both of our gates are locked on the inside. I closely watch my dogs when they are outside. I have ample spaces to allow for crates, big and small. When I care for pets in someone else's home, I will stay outside with them while they potty and stay near them when they eat. I typically will not leave pets alone with toys unless the parents specifically ask this of me.
“Melissa showed great care for our fur baby Valentino. She ensured he was engaged and even purchased toys for him to play with while under her care. She kept in regular contact with us and shared lots of photos to put us at ease. I absolutely recommend Melissa for your pet care needs.”
“Andrea was amazing with our guy. We got in touch with her last minute with our plans changing from the hurricane and couldn't bring our dog with us. from being nervous leaving him for the 1st time, she made everything easy and smooth. Our guy came home happy and tired playing with her dogs all day. if you are nervous about using the app and leaving your pet definitely give her a try!!!”
“Celeste is a super sitter - 5 star plus plus. She took excellent care of our chocolate lab, a very senior member of our family who is 17+ people years old and needs a little extra help. We are very happy with the love and care shown our old girl, and have found our new sitter of choice.”
About: I have over 20 years of experience from breeding to boarding to dog walks. Exercise is an important part of your dog's day so is love and affection. My daughter, Haleigh, and I, provide several different services to accommodate your needs. Our services can be set on daily, weekly, or on as needed basis. During our visits we come to your home and provide one-on-one time, love, and attention to your fur baby. Time can be for a leashed walk, yard play, potty time, feeding, or any combination. Please feel free to contact us with any questions, we are here to help you feel at ease. I currently work part-time Monday thru Friday. I'm off at 1:00 so have plenty of time to show your fur babies the attention they need! I have 4 children and 1 fur baby. We live in a smoke free, pet friendly home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 6 years, including walks, playtime, feeding, and bathing. I treat every pet with love, patience, and attention as if they were my own. Friends and family trust me to keep their dogs happy and safe every time. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available during weekdays and weekends, morning or afternoon walks included. I always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care.

About: Iv taken care of different dogs and love playing with them. I've taken them out to walk, had them over for boarding and everday daycare. I'm currently not working and am available to give all the attention to your furry friend. Play days and walks are the best along with cuddles. I have a fenced home with plenty of yard to run and play. I have 2 dogs that are always willing to play all day.
About: I love to bond with pets. Dogs especially, they are like built in best friends. However, sadly I am not a fan of house cats. I work from 5am-2pm daily, and I have college on Tuesday evenings. I am free any other time. Just let me know what’s best for you. I treat them as if they were my own. Love them how they should be loved. They and friends. They have hearts too and should be treated as so.
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and providing them with lots of love and attention. I also enjoy photographing pets and capturing their personalities along the way. I work Monday–Friday from 8–5, but I’m available before work, after work, and on weekends for drop-ins, walks, and quality care. Would love to meet all the pup and kitten friends around town. I’m happy to help with early morning potty breaks or walks, as well as evening visits to help pets burn off that last bit of energy before a cozy night in. I grew up around rescued dogs thanks to my grandma, who passed her love for animals on to me. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I build my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins so pets always feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I enjoy making time every day for attention, exercise, and consistency. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get regular walks or playtime, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I also keep homes clean and secure and provide updates so owners feel at ease.

About: Grew up on a farm and had/have dogs my entire life. I also within the last 2 years have volunteered with working dog training facilities and horses at an equine therapy program. It has been great learning how to train and approach dogs, make them feel at ease along with challenging their brains.

I was a little nervous about a stranger having access to my house but I realized quickly she was trustworthy. She communicates well and sent reports and photos of my cats which put my mind at ease. I will definitely use Molly again when I need a sitter.”

“We left our pup in the care of Jessica, and hwr family, and we honestly couldn't be happier. Stryker was treated like one of her own, and also made us feel very welcome when we did a pre-meet and greet. I found Stryker's home away from home, and will continue to use the services of Jessica.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all ages from bottle feeding pets to giving injections to senior pets. I look forward to meeting your SETX pets! I currently work part time so I have lots of available extra time to go spend time with animals. I’m super flexible with my schedule and am available most every day. I love taking pups out to the local parks, or exercising your pet in the back yard. I sadly cannot keep any dogs in my house.
“The absolute sweetest person! Sent me many updates of my 11 week old puppy! She even gave him his medicine at the correct time I asked. Did everything perfectly and comforted him with his separation anxiety. She played with him and made him feel comfortable and let him take all the puppy naps he wanted. She’s an absolute saint the way she took care of my puppy. He normally refuses to be around anyone that’s not me but when I came to pick him up he hesitated leaving her side and watched her walk away. He adores her and I can’t wait to bring him back tomorrow!”

I definitely recommend Mrs. Patty and I will be using her services again.”

About: I have had many types of experience through-out my life caring for pets. Just to name a few, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and a chinchilla. I have potty trained my pups, and simple commands/tricks. Currently my schedule is open so I am able to care for pets anytime weekdays and weekends. Animals with a more rigorous/timed schedule are welcomed as well. I have two friendly, loving doodles who are always trying to make friends. We regularly bring them to the beach, parks and long walks. They love making new friends and playing fetch. They have a large backyard to play in at times but they are usually in the house because they are spoiled and this Texas heat is savage. I can crate pets if needed, it just depends on your preference.
