    Every pet sitting visit in Texas comes with:

    • A veterinary professional

      Experienced, background-checked and interviewed by a veterinarian-led team.

    • Medication given correctly

      Pills, liquids or injections, as your veterinarian prescribed.

    • A trained eye

      VetterCare providers know what's normal and what's not, and notice early signs of illness or stress.

      See how your pet is doing while you're away.

    "We couldn’t be happier with Cassie! Having someone we can trust to come into our home and take such great care of both our dogs and cat gives us so much peace of mind when we’re away. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely cares about our animals. It’s obvious they are comfortable with her and well taken care of while we’re gone. We highly recommend Cassie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!"

This made me so happy that she has such a great connection with animals and you can see her love and passion for taking the best possible care of them! My cats also loved her!

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I know I can trust my pet sitter in Texas?

    Every VetterCare veterinary professional is experienced and background-checked, not just anyone who signed up on an app. We match you directly and stay involved, so you're not relying on a stranger's self-written profile.

    What's the difference between VetterCare and a pet-sitting app?

    Those platforms are directories — you're choosing between profiles written by the sitters themselves, with no clinical training required. Everyone who cares for your pet through VetterCare is a veterinary professional, trained to notice things a general pet sitter wouldn't, like early signs of illness or stress.

    How much does pet sitting cost in Texas?

    Pricing depends on visit length, frequency, and your location. You'll get a clear quote before booking — no surprise charges.

    What happens if my pet needs medical attention while I'm away?

    Because your sitter is a veterinary professional, they're trained to recognize when something's wrong and can act quickly — coordinating with your vet if needed, not just noticing a problem after the fact.

    Will I get updates while I'm away?

    Yes. Your veterinary professional sends photo updates while you're away, so you know how your pet is doing.

    Can my sitter give my pet medication?

    Yes. Our veterinary professionals are trained and comfortable handling medication as part of a normal visit, not as a special add-on.
