Karina was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her enough. Princess is an extremely shy dog who rarely trusts new people, and it is not easy at all to win her over. In the past, many sitters have struggled with her, and some have even given up, so finding someone like Karina has been a huge relief for me. Karina was incredibly patient, calm, and clearly very experienced with dogs. She truly went above and beyond to earn Princess’s trust at Princess’s own pace. It takes someone with real skill, understanding, and confidence around dogs to handle Princess the right way, and Karina did exactly that. Knowing Princess was in such capable and caring hands gave me so much peace of mind. I am so grateful that I found Karina, and she will absolutely be the first person I reach out to whenever I need help going forward. I look forward to working with her regularly because it is truly hard to find someone this dependable, skilled, and caring. If you have a shy, nervous, or challenging dog, I would recommend Karina without hesitation. She is outstanding.

Risi did a wonderful job taking care of our two pups. She was very communicative, provided tons of photo updates, and cared for our dogs as if they were her own. We are very much looking forward to her pet sitting for us again in the near future!

Ive been having great experiences with Corina during her drop-in visit with my dog, Gunner. She were punctual, friendly, and gave Gunner lots of attention and care. I appreciated the detailed updates and professional photo shots—it was clear that he was happy and well cared for. Corina followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable pet care!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. Growing up in the big city, I cared for my rescued Rottweiler-Pit Bull mix, and an American Shorthair cat. When I migrated to Houston, a wonderful Chihuahua-Papillon mix, Daisy, rescued me. Caring for pets throughout my life has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important loving, reliable care is for animals. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in the Houston/Katy area, and I’ll always treat your pets like family! My schedule is flexible on evenings and weekends, which allows me to provide attentive care, walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship for pets. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always try to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pets. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I gave my own pets growing up.

About: Hi! I’m Marisol, a Physical Education teacher based in Katy, TX and an animal lover who believes pets deserve patience, structure, exercise, and lots of care. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including senior pets and active breeds. I make sure pets stay hydrated (especially during Texas summers), get the exercise they need, and receive plenty of attention while you’re away. During drop-in visits I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication reminders (if needed), and light clean-up. One of my biggest inspirations was my rescue dog, Beethoven, who lived a happy life for 15 years and taught me to care for every pet like family. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and giving you peace of mind while you’re away 🐾 I am currently in summer break till the end of July since the follow the traditional school calendar, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. I usually cater to your pups needs, I always keep them hydrated specially on this summer time by carrying a water bottle for them. I also make sure they have enough exercise and play time. During my visit I i try to clean any mess that your pup has done while being alone at home.

Rebekah was so sweet to our Butters. She came to our rescue while we were at a wedding and took very good care of him. Cuddles, petting, playing, din-din (dinner), and followed all our directions. Definitely a trustworthy sweet lady!

I hired Carole to take care of my beloved cats while I was away on a two‑week trip, and she was absolutely amazing. When I came home, my cats were happy, healthy, and incredibly well cared for. It was clear they received a lot of love and attention every single day. Carole did an excellent job with my cats during my time away. Her dedication and attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind while I was traveling. I am extremely grateful for everything she did. Without a doubt, Carole will be my go‑to person every time I need to travel and leave my babies in someone’s care. Highly recommend her!
