“Elizabeth is fantastic with my dog! She makes sure he gets the time outside that he loves and also pays attention to his energy level as a senior dog and spends time with him as per his needs and preferences. Walking, sitting outside on the patio, and giving him all the snuggles. I feel confident my dog, Petie is getting all the TLC he deserves when Elizabeth is caring for him. Thank you, Elizabeth for giving me this peace of mind! Highly recommend!”

“Jill is amazing. Pepper my puppy took to her immediately. Not only has Jill taken Pepper for a walk but with Jill's doggy background she also trained her in going down stairs and improving he behavior. I cant recommend Jill highly enough.”

“Emily was SO easy! I had to ask her last minute for one morning because my friends couldn’t that specific time & she made things a breeze! I got pictures of my fur baby & now will definitely be using her again 😍”

“Lisa was fantastic with my three dogs. She did twice a day walk for Pitbull while we were on a 5 day vacation. Having a Pitbull will turn some walkers/sitters away and Lisa being experienced with this bred and being a vet tech was a blessing. We will booking her for a future trip and additional walks. She was the BEST!”


“Hana helped out at short notice and it was very easy to arrange Baloo’s walking schedule. Communication was good and we will definitely use again. Highly recommend!”
“Kara was incredibly kind and sweet with Bo. This was their first time meeting before she sits for him. She was proactive in asking for all of Bo’s care instructions and personality. I could tell that she has tons of experiences with all types of dogs and truly cares about their comfort. If you need a dog walker or sitter, book Kara!”

“Kylie was very good. She did such a wonderful job of taking care of my baby. Wish I could find more people like her. Will definitely use her again if she is available.”

“Dalya is awesome!! Walked and hung out with our puppy, and sent plenty of photos/videos. She sent timely messages during her scheduled visit and was so quick to respond. Will be keeping her in mind for the future!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 4-5 years. Dog-sitting and cat-sitting for my church family and friends, I really enjoy it. I also have a fur baby of my own. I love him so much, and he is so spoiled, like any animal should be! I’m not really busy other than running maybe a few errands. I will be able to stay and play with your fur baby’s most of the day and all night. I have a spacious backyard where they can run and play. I do have 1 dog, golden retriever- he’s super sweet and friendly. Although, I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“July walked our pup on last minute notice and proceeded to be so helpful! We ask her every chance we need somebody and I couldn’t say enough good things!”

About: When I attended Texas Tech U in Lubbock, Texas I was fortunate enough to volunteer weekly at this special shelter. This place is so special to me because of the mass amount of new faces I see daily. Some of the activities I partook in was bringing some of the dogs home and cleaning them up while teaching them to be house trained and well behaved. I was also a dog walker for Dog Butler in the Heights area for 6 months. Apart from being a dog lover I am a NICU nurse 3x a week! I love taking care of babies and would love to take care of yours! I work really well with crates to continue kennel training or to just maintain that. Very familiar with animal behavior to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
About: Grew up surrounded by horses, cows, chickens, and never went without a pet in the home! I’ve even worked a little bit on farms and called myself “Captain of the Dogs” as a kid! Being in medical school keeps me a little too busy for a dog of my own, but I absolutely love the opportunity to care for your pets. I hope to be able to both take care of your pets in home, where they are used to, as well as out on walks to have some adventures! I look forward to it! I’m currently in medical school, so I stay very busy studying. However, I take frequent breaks to get outside and get active. I am also always looking for somewhere new to study (your home!) and a fur baby to pet (yours!). It’s very important to me to be as accommodating as possible so both you and your pet are comfortable, whatever that means for you guys. My priority is to keep things safe, fun and loving always.
About: I have had cats as pets my whole life and dogs as an adult. I have been pet sitting for about 6 years to dogs from puppies to seniors. Times have ranged from weekends to a month. I started fostering kittens when covid hit. I have found joy in caring for animals with all their different personalities. I have become experienced in all things kittens : bottle feeding , tube feeding administering medicine (my neighbor will even call me to give her pets pills) flea baths ringworm baths, brushing teeth you name it . I have even had to help kittens cross the rainbow bridge. It has been bitter sweet , but the love they give is more then enough. All animals deserve the best treatment and love we can give them I have been in education for 20 years teaching art and currently an administrator for the districts Fine Arts Department. My schedule is flexible enough to be able to check on animals during the day so they are taken care of. I have found pet sitting and fostering to be very rewarding and someday would like to start my own fostering service . Foster group Tall Tail Rescue . My job is flexible enough that i can leave for lunch and take care of your pets in the middle of the day as well. I have three cats that have been around lots of dog and cat “visitors” . Fostering cats has helped, … oh here comes another friend
“Thank you for fitting us in for a week worth of daily walks at the last minute. I appreciate your good communications and punctuality. Brice enjoyed her walks with you this week. We will definitely book with you in the future!! Highly recommended...”

Had a really good experience with this pet walker! Super reliable and easy to communicate with. You can tell they actually care about the pets, which made me feel way more comfortable. I loved getting little updates and pics after the walks too. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for someone you can trust with your pet!

Suzanne came through tonight and walked my dog when I was called away for an emergency! I appreciate their communication and response time with a request that only left a couple hours until booked appt time. Bonus points that he’s been helped by them before so I didn’t have to contact a complete stranger. Thank you!
Tess was outstanding, very smart, good energy and gets dogs! She shows up on time, made a joyful day and evening for our 7 year old terrier. They bonded well. She was a great communicator, sent many pictures, and overall amazing. I will definitely use Tess again and highly recommend her.
