About: Money can buy you a fine dog, but only love can make him wag his tail and with me your dog won’t be able to wag their tail enough! For as long as I’ve been alive animals and specifically dogs have been a passion and love for me. Unfortunately I have never had the pleasure of owning my own dog because of my mother’s personal beliefs on them in my young life and now with being in college finances don’t permit. So instead I decided to take care of other people’s dogs and sometimes for weeks on end! With me, your dog recieves the love and care he deserves while respecting the requests of the owner! With me your dog is not dog but instead a companion.
About: I’ve grown up caring for dogs my whole life and have hands-on experience with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. While I’ve only owned dogs personally, I’m comfortable and happy to care for other animals as well. I’m a quick learner, very observant, and always follow pet care instructions carefully to make sure every animal feels safe and well-cared for. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets, and I treat each one like part of the family. I’m currently a high school student (senior) and have flexible availability during the week and weekends. I’m happy to work around any of your pet’s needs! I have a comfortable home with a medium-sized backyard that’s fully fenced for safe outdoor time. While I don’t have pets of my own right now, my space is clean, quiet, and ideal for dogs or other animals to feel relaxed and secure. I always follow each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy.
“Chloe was amazing! She took Prince for his walk every day, rain or shine—no matter how chaotic the Houston weather was that week.
