Top rated Vista pet sitters

“Jennifer is the best puppy-sitter ever! She provided 10 drop-ins for my two large dogs during a five day vacation. My dogs absolutely loved her and she even gathered my mail and pulled garbage can in from road. Five star dog care right here!”


“Courtney did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Smores, while we were away in Austin. She was incredibly accommodating and took the appointment on short notice, which we truly appreciated. Courtney even came over the night before to meet Smores, which gave us peace of mind. Her communication throughout was excellent, and she came over twice to let Smores out as planned. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely call on her again in the future. Highly recommend!”



“Genniver was amazing with our pups. She arrived on time, sent a lot of pictures and kept us updated. She was also very flexible with our schedule unexpectedly changing.”


“I hired John to take care of my two Shih Tzus while I was away for training, and I was genuinely impressed. He went above and beyond sending lots of pictures and thorough updates after each visit, which I really looked forward to. It made being away from my pups so much easier, knowing they were in such good hands. What stood out the most was how at ease my dogs were with him. They looked happy, calm, and completely themselves in every photo. That kind of comfort doesn’t come easily with just anyone. John clearly connects with animals in a thoughtful and respectful way, and it showed in every interaction. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again, and I truly appreciate the care he gave my girls. John, you rock!”


“Jenna was an absolutely lovely sitter to our little Pearl, who liked her a lot and took to her from the get-go. She’s very professional yet friendly, very responsible, and reliable. We hope to keep working with her in any other occasion we might need Pearl taken care of, as we’re extremely pleased with her.”


“Kelsie was so great with our cat! Our cat immediately warmed up to Kelsie who played with her, gave her pets, made sure she was fed and had water. We got lots of pictures and detailed updates every day. She even made our cat an extra cuddle spot on the couch to be sure she felt safe and cozy. It’s always hard to leave town, but I feel confident that she will be in great hands every time with Kelsie!”



“Mandy was great! She did a great job with my dog snoop & cat, Leche. She provided useful updates and we had absolutely 0 issues. When she first met snoop, I noticed she has the love for animals and saw it in the photos of my animals.”


“Araceli did a great job. She was on time and spent time with Cooper. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a good pet sitter. I will use her again!! She stayed in contact with me and that was great!”


“Abby was great taking care of our boxer while we were out. She got alone with Sabrina right away or vice verse. From the first visit, we knew we were in good hands and she was very professional and if we ever need services again, we will not hesitate to contact her. Highly recommend to friends and family.”



“Second time around she take care of our puppy and we are super happy for it. Definitely someone that takes really good care of our dog and the mess that out puppy makes at the house. Will count with her anytime.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a teenager, helping out neighbors, friends, and family with everything from daily walks to multi-day pet sitting. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life—including both cats and dogs—and currently have a large-breed puppy. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. While I don’t currently have a cat, I’ve had them in the past and have experience with a variety of personalities—from playful kittens to more independent cats. I’ve also administered medication to both cats and dogs, so I’m confident caring for pets who need a little extra support. My own dog can be excitable around other animals, but she is crate trained and will always be safely crated in a separate room when I’m not home. Any playtime or interactions will be fully supervised to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. If your pet feels most secure in their own home rather than staying elsewhere, I’m happy to offer drop-in visits to refresh their food and water, go for walks, provide potty breaks, playtime, and all the affection they’re used to. Because I have a dog at home, I’m unable to offer overnight stays—but I’ll make sure your pet feels just as loved and well-cared for while you’re away. I adore animals of all kinds and breeds, and I know how important it is to feel connected while you’re apart—so I always provide photo updates and check-ins during each visit (unless you’d prefer otherwise). I’m typically an early riser, which gives me time in the mornings to take on drop-in visits or walks before heading to work. I work full time but have two days off each week, which are perfect for one-time bookings or flexible scheduling. Even on my workdays, I’m often available for morning or evening appointments depending on location and timing. After work, I head straight home to care for my own pup—so I understand the importance of keeping pets on a consistent routine. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or just checking in while you’re away, I’ll work with your pet’s needs and your schedule as best I can. Both dogs will always have supervised playtime. If they get too excited, they can be separated, but if they become best friends, they’ll happily play together! When I’m not home, each dog will be crated in separate rooms to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable. If in your home for drop ins- any instructions you leave will be followed! I have no issues with indoor cameras either- I have one as well to check in on my pup throughout the day.

About: I’ve grown up in a household with many pets all my life, so I know how important it is to find exceptional help with looking out for them. I will tend to any of puppies needs I can help with potty training needed as well as any special diets of preference. Any senior dogs with any special requirements I’m more than happy to help. I’m willing to ask any additional questions just so I can be absolutely certain your pet is getting the exceptional care they deserve. I usually go on walks every morning out of habit, so having a furry friend with me makes walks or runs more enjoyable. I can update any owner however often as needed to ensure the safety of their pets. (Pictures included!) I’m an online collage student just looking for a way to pay for classes, and get into a nursing program later this year. Any additional questions please reach out to me I’m always available! I’m currently a collage student at Northeast Lakeview Collage , usually I do in person classes but I decided to try my classes online this semester. Since I am home I’d like to find a way of getting my school work done as well as finding a way of paying for classes. I’m always home I would say I’m more of a homebody over anything. I do like going to the gym for about an hour or two a day as well as going on walks in the morning. I live close to a Walmart less than 3 minutes away so if there’s any last second necessities I’m able to assist. I have my own vehicle to make any travel arrangements if needed. I have 2 dogs of my own, they’re both a little territorial of their backyard. I’d prefer not to have our dogs interact with other animals just to make sure all animals are comfortable under the same roof. The dog run is a large running around area the length of our house, it’s a wooden fence so the dogs maintain some comfortability. Usually we put our dogs on the side of the house if we’re going out for extended hours of the day. Regardless I can maintain both parties fairly easily. My family is very easygoing and interactive with animals, especially dogs. They usually run loose in the house and are kept an occupied by toys and treats.

About: I used to work with the animal shelter in Okinawa Japan with the army. I was a civilian worker( not in army). I also worked with a few veterinarian offices in different parts of the county. I have volunteered and worked here in San Antonio Tx at the animal defense league. I have hands on first aide and CPR experience. ( I am NOT certified).I foster on occasion when I find strays. I have a Passion for animals and there needs. I can administer meds. Take temps, squeeze anal glands when needed, and groom. (Not licensed to groom). This is just from hands on experience. I have a seven year old son. I have three dogs of my own and a cat a bearded dragon and two rats. I pretty much cater to the animals and my youngest son. Caring for animals and family is something I absolutely love to do. I leave house to pick up son from school or take him to extra classes. Or to grocery shop. I have older children and grandchildren that pop in all times of the day. Also I have a terrific husband who helps when he is home. I give my full attention to the care of the animals in my home. They are family to me, even the furry visitors! I am here to let them out side in fenced locked yard as needed . They can get on bed. Lay on couch. Get as comfy cozy while there in my home.


“Thank you Sarah for watching Taco!!! I know it was a last minute rover appointment set up, but you went above and beyond taking care of our Pup! Thank you also for help with our package delivery-added bonus! Thanks again!”


About: Whether it’s dogs, cats, or small pets, I provide loving, personalized care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine and personality so they feel right at home. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I believe having a routine and giving lots of attention is key. Pets feel safe and happy when they know what to expect, so I stick to regular walks, meals, and playtime while making sure they get plenty of love and cuddles. I provide a clean, safe space where pets can relax and play. I follow each pet’s individual routine for feeding, exercise, and rest, and make sure they get plenty of interaction and supervision throughout their stay.
