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: I had a dog in my life for 12 years, since I was 3 years old. So I grew up loving dogs. My pet was my best friend, literally. Out of all my siblings, I was the one who fed him, bathed him, played with him. I was the one who took care of him. Anyways, I’m available the whole entire week. Any dog that I meet always ends up loving me right away. It’s like we connect. I’m special I guess. I believe dogs should be treated equally as us human beings. I am very responsible & have my surroundings clean and safe. You won’t regret choosing me to take care of your furry baby! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

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: As most typical people, I love taking care of all doggies… the bigger the better. Going on walks and playing is just as much fun for me as it is for them. I work base off your dogs energy, if they just need cuddles and pats I’ll give them all of that! If they’re the more energetic dogs that love running around, I’ll be sure to get their energy out before you come home. Spending time and taking care of dogs is my ultimate at peace moment that fills me with serotonin despite your own dogs needs! 🫶🏼 I have a hybrid work schedule, some days I’m home all day and when I’m not I’m usually only gone for a few hours. I am open to having your little furry ones spend the night or two or however many haha! ❤️ I live in a gated community next to a pet friendly park in a safe neighborhood. I can easily walk around my own community to get all your fur babies energy out, but if needed, there’s lots of areas and parks for me to visit nearby as well! At your own residence, whatever you would like me to do I am more than willing in order to ensure your overall trust and comfort while taking care of your fur babies.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals since I was a small child. I am very good with dogs and know how to manage even the jumpers, growlers, and hissers. I’ve always had an innate ability to bond with animals. I’m very punctual and detailed oriented. I truly care for animals and their owners. I’ve cleaned up pee, torn up dog beds so owners would not have to come home to it, and gave lots of love and belly rubs. I work Monday through Friday but my hours vary. I’m available at lunch I am able to take flexible lunch breaks. I’m home most weekends because I’m taking online classes, so walks are a nice break for me. I’m available every afternoon for the most part. I do not have any pets of my own. I have a few fish. I have a condo and two dog parks in walking distance, countless parks and an off leash dog park I like to go to. I’m a smoke free home.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for friends and neighbors since as young as 11 and grew up with as many as 3 dogs in the home at one time!! Would love to meet your fur babies! I currently am going to school and working in retail so my schedule is super flexible. I will never be gone for more than 4 hours (that is roughly how long my shifts are) at a time. I don’t work everyday and some of my courses are online, so I can spend a lot of time caring for your animals! Shoot me a message if you have any questions! Will always make sure the fur babies get lots of love while they are in my care and my neighborhood being on the bayou I like to take advantage of walks (if it’s not too hot!).

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
