About: Hi! I’m Tania, your local pet lover in the Energy Corridor area 🐶🐱❤️ At this time, I’m offering walks, drop ins, and house sitting during the day and evening hours. While I’m currently unavailable for overnight stays, I’m happy to provide extended house sitting visits to ensure your pets receive plenty of care and attention. Thank you for your understanding! Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love! I’ve spent years working with dogs and cats, helping families with walks, bath time, feeding, play sessions, enrichment, and of course lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I’m a proud dog mom and grew up in a family that love and owned dogs for many years specially bulldogs, so I understand different temperaments and breed-specific needs. I’ve trained all of my own dogs in basic obedience and continue reinforcing positive behaviors daily. As a pet parent myself, I completely understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care and I treat that trust with the utmost care and respect. I’ve also volunteered with rescues and shelters, which deepened my love for providing patience, comfort, and reassurance to animals of all backgrounds. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs a gentle approach, I adjust to their unique personality. And because I love adding special touches with your approval, I can bring your pet their favorite treats or a small toy for our first visit! I also enjoy photography so you’ll receive adorable keepsakes along with exceptional care. I can’t wait to meet you and your sweet fur baby and give them all the love, attention, and tail wagging fun they deserve! At the moment, I’m not available for overnight stays, but I can provide house sitting for extended hours. I’m also available to return the next day as early as the pet parents prefer. My schedule is flexible so it allows me to work around your schedule. I’m available through the week and weekends. Let me know your schedule and I can accommodate it. I first tend to the client’s specific needs for their pet. There are many parks around we can walk and enjoy. I’m always cautious of other dogs around and keep safe distance.

About: Hi! My name is Michellee and I am a 4th grade teacher in the Houston Heights! Growing up I was always surrounded by cats and dogs but I mostly grew up caring for dogs. When l lived at my in laws I helped care for two puppers Luna, our energetic and super lovey dovey chihuahua and Misu (a rescue), the independent and energetic terrier mix. Through my experience with our pups and as a current teacher of super active children I am an energetic, observant, and patient person. I love to go for runs and walks so no matter how active the pup, they'll love taking a stroll in the park with me. If your pup has any special accommodations, I'm flexible to work with whatever you need. Due to my occupation my preferred method of contact from 7am-3pm is text messaging. After those times You can contact me via call. I look forward to working with you and your furbaby!

About: I’ve always had dogs ever since I was young. With all my siblings dogs, we have 9 in the family and they typically call me for walks or dog sitting. We have dogs ranging from Maltese to Rot/boxer mix. I work from home and outside my front door is a small park but have surrounding parks around the neighborhood close by. With my dog, I took work breaks as walks. It’s Texas so my assumptions the pets are inside, I have a small fence yard but access to a park in front of my house.

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes from chihuahuas to pitbulls to Great Danes. My father is an owner of 4 cats which I also have experience taking care of. One of his former cats was disabled with feline AIDS so I also have experience handling and administering oral medication. I’ve even worked in an emergency vet hospital as a scribe and know how to identify signs of illness and where to take them should something go wrong (knock on wood). My whole life I have been a lover of all animals and I do my best to stay educated on animal safety and body language. I mainly take freelance jobs so I can take jobs any time between the hours of 11am and 10pm with some exceptions if necessary for overnight bookings. I do not take in pets in my own home as I live in an apartment and other dogs and owners can be unpredictable. I can take your dog on walks, feed them, and cuddle or play with them or let them rest in their own space! Let me know their quirks and I will work with them as best I can!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. Growing up we’ve always had a house full of animals. Dogs, cats, fish, frogs, you name it!! I enjoy animals greatly and looking forward to meeting new fur babies! I’m currently a school teacher. However, I have plenty of time after work on weekdays (4:00pm) and ALL day during the weekends and the summer months (June - July). If needed, I have crates that can be borrowed. I also have access to a near by dog park 4 minutes away by foot. I have plenty of dog toys, food, water, and treats for the fur babies.

About: Hello my name is Camila or cami I would like to share a bit of my experience with the animals I have/had taken care of throughout my years of living. Starting off strong I have only ever rescued/homed/adopted all of my animals including smaller critters such as rodents, birds, frogs, and reptiles. I also have experience in walking dogs for families and friends this being dogs that are big as a Labrador and small as a Yorkie. My first interaction with rescuing an animal was when I was 5 with my first dog Bouncie. She was a poodle/shnauzer mix and we found her in an abandoned apartment’s back patio that was locked. Seeing her limped right leg we immediately took her to a clinic and we neutered, chipped, bathed, and took her to get her vaccines as well as getting her medicated. She lived for a very long 14 years and unfortunately had to be put down after two failing attempts of removing a tumor in her stomach that was the size of a tennis ball. Though heartbreaking it made me understand and motivated my care for animals not just dogs but also any defenseless critter. Present time I now have two dogs, Corey who just turned 5 this year and Joy who will be turning 14 and two cats, Gert who is a 1 year and Mila who also turned 5 this year. Overall I take the care and love for animals very seriously as they are just like children they need attention and plenty of love as well as care. I hope to be considered as someone who can be trusted with their babies when and if needed! I am always on my feet with our animals even with my husband. I make sure to walk our dogs for at least 30-45 minutes twice to three times in the day depending on what our schedule is looking like. Feeding proper amounts of food and following diet restrictions since one of our pups is having tummy troubles and is taking medication. This is an everyday routine that both me and my husband do and enjoy doing. When going into a clients home and needing to feed, walk, or simply play I make sure to follow instructions without disrupting the actual house of the individual. Respecting the place is the main key and making sure to not invade but also communicating with the client. There can definitely be moments where something might be confusing so becoming approachable is important to establish proper care for the clients pets. As for the care I provide for my pets it’s the same minus being in someone else’s home. The type of care and respect I give to my animals in my home is the exact same care and respect I would want anyone I am not close with to give to my home and pets.This means maintaining and cleaning the main areas where they play, eat, sleep, and do their business.

About: Hi! I would love to take care of your special friend! I am home 24/7 so I will be able to attend to your fur baby and give them the love and care they deserve. I currently have a rescue, Savana and she will help me welcome any new friends into our home! I allow dogs in my home to free roam, and they are more than welcome on the furniture and bed. I know canine CPR/ first aid and can administer oral medications. I will go on 4-5 walks daily, either around the apartment complex or the neighborhood. We will also visit the Millie Bush dog park everyday. I do live in an apartment so at this time I will only be able to take small to medium sized dogs.

Jake does such a wonderful job with our dogs and is always so reliable! He goes above and beyond just walking the dogs. He makes sure they have water, allows them plenty of time for potty breaks, gives them their little treats, and even brings in our Amazon packages from time to time. We always appreciate his help!

About: Nice to meet you! My name is Erika and while I’ve never been in professional pet care, I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals - such as dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Caring for my own pets over the years have taught me how to adjust to each dog’s unique needs, whether that means lots of playtime, a slow walk, or extra cuddles and patience. Moreover, I have 2 years of being a Behavior Technician, which has given me a strong understanding of behavior and how to use positive reinforcement effectively. This experience transitions seamlessly into working with dogs that need that consistency, rapport building, and support. Whether you need someone to help your puppy burn off energy or give your senior dog the gentle care it deserves, I’m here to help. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love and respect I give my own. HABLO ESPAÑOL :)! I currently work a full-time remote position and my schedule is incredible flexible. I make my own schedule and can fit morning or midday walks 3 times a week. And daily, I can allocate my afternoons to pet walking. My weekends are completely free and will be focusing on taking new clients all day. I live in a 1-story house with a large backyard. If pet sitting is necessary, your dog will have a place to stay in the living room and a large backyard to play in. The area where I live is safe and my house has camera around the premise that allows me to monitor them if they want to spend more time outside sun bathing. I also have a camera inside for when I need to step out and run an errand, they will also be monitored. My house is also 5 min away from a park that loops a .5 mile walk therefore they’ll be guaranteed a good walk.

About: Hi, I am Krithika! bring the mix of experience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every pet I care for! I’ve fostered dogs, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from playful, high-energy puppies to shy or adjusting pups who just need a little extra patience and reassurance. I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique quirks and making them feel safe and happy. I also have a dental and healthcare background, which means I’m familiar with basic pet first aid and keeping an eye out for any changes in behavior or health. I’m naturally observant, so I notice the little things and make sure your pet is always well cared for. I love helping my neighbors with training their dogs, so I’m happy to reinforce good habits, practice basic commands, and support routines you already have in place. Whether it’s guiding a young puppy or making sure an older dog feels comfortable and relaxed, I’m all about creating a positive, loving environment. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of care, attention, and affection! 🐾 I am currently working from home and have a pretty chill schedule. I build my schedule around making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I am used to planning my day with regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, and checkins, so your pet will always have structure and consistency. Since I have fostered dogs and regularly help neighbors with their pets, I am comfortable adjusting my routine to fit different energy levels and needs, whether that means active playtime for a puppy or a slower, more relaxed pace for a calmer dog. I also make time for training reinforcement, enrichment activities, and, of course, lots of cuddles. I live an apartment with great space. My dog, Tisha is allowed on our furnitures and beds. She used to sleep in her crate but we recently made the switch to let her sleep on her bed in our room.

Melody was great. I reached out as I needed a a walker while I was out of town. I asked if she can stop by so that she can meet my baby. And she did just that, even took her for a mini walk to see how it would go. And they both did great. She came by and walked by baby without any issues and kept me abreast of everything. I would highly recommend Melody and will definitely use her again. Melody was great! I reached out because I needed a walker while I was out of town.
