About: My parents have taken care of 40 cats, and counting, in the last 28 years. This included four dogs that questioned their own relationship to these critters. It’s safe to say I’ve experienced the wide range, just from family care alone, to care for your pet. In addition, I’ve worked as a Kennel Technician in a boarding facility and have customer experience with high-risk canines and environment training sessions. I’m openly available. Weekends will specify accordingly and I can accommodate! Check my calendar for more information. If you need another time, then let me know! Knowing your canine can trust their handler is important, no matter the situation. In my zone of safety, I ensure clients understand that I’m wanting a safe time too.

Erica was prompt, reliable and sweet to our two small pups. We received regular communication from her with photos. The moment we met her we felt confident that our puppies (who are like babies to us) would be well cared for and she exceeded our expectations. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Erica!

About: *I can work with you on prices* I’ve spent over 15 years caring for all kinds of pets who just want a gentle touch so they feel safe, loved, and cared for—just like they would at home. Reliable care, happy pets, and peace of mind for you—that’s my promise. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m available most days with a flexible schedule that fits your pet’s needs—walks, playtime, meals, and snuggles whenever they need. I’m home full-time, so your pet will never be left alone for long Cozy home with two friendly dogs—a calm senior and a playful 4-year-old. Secure yard for outdoor fun and plenty of indoor space for relaxing or playing. I’m home full-time with my 3-year-old, so your pet will get lots of attention and care throughout the day. We are a 5 minute walk to the lake in a gated community so its very safe. We all know each other in the neighborhood. I usually walk down to the water and let the pups get a good picture for Momma & Daddy

We are new to the area so we are very nervous about leaving our pets with someone we did not know. But James did absolutely amazing job! It was amazing to know our pets were well taken care of and happy in their own home. We will for sure be asking James to come and sit with our pets again!

About: I have had dogs in my family all my life. I worked at a pet boarding center called Circle Star Pet Resort and will always take cute pictures of your fur babies! I used to foster dogs, but I get too attached to those babies so I couldn’t do it anymore :( I have helped out with bathing and taking care of some of the top show dogs in our country which has been the best opportunity of my life! Due to that my prices are a bit higher but I have the experience! I have a dog myself who is the sweetest baby ever! He loves it when I bring home a friend so they will have plenty of playtime together!

About: I have several years of experience pet sitting as well as working as a veterinary technician for three years in the Houston area. I have grown up around animals all my life and dogs are absolutely my favorite animals! I have two of my own, one of which I've had since 2010 when he was a little puppy around 10 weeks old. I nursed him back to health when he had parvovirus! My other is a smaller rescue dog I adopted in 2017 who originally tested positive for heartworm disease but now he has been heatworm free for about two years! I am currently working a full time Monday through Friday job, but I do have weekends free and evenings. I also can get Fridays off most of the time if needed. I have been at my current job for almost 7 years so my bosses are very negotiable and I am generally able to adjust my schedule with advance notice. I will play with your pups, cuddle, take them on walks, and even to the dog park with your approval! I have a smaller dog of my own who loves to play with other dogs!
