CJ was amazing with the pets! She sent photos and I think they enjoyed our vacation as much as we did. I didn't have to worry at all knowing they were in good hands.

Such a blessing to have Matthew watch over our fur babies! He was attentive, responsive and dedicated to keeping our babies safe and secure during our vacation. Daily updates and fast responses, even though we were halfway around the globe. He adapted to a problem while we were gone, and resolved it for us without complaint. If you’re thinking about him, don’t think twice, just book!

About: With over 10 years of experience owning and operating a grooming and boarding facility in Houston, Texas, I bring professional, hands-on expertise to every dog I care for. As a devoted dog owner myself (four fur-kids and counting), I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs—including administering medication, handling anxious or difficult dogs, and, of course, managing the occasional mess with patience and care. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and attentive, but most importantly, I genuinely love dogs—and they know it. When you’re done booking, be sure to tell your dog I said hi. I’m semi-retired, which means I have the flexibility to provide reliable, around-the-clock care for your pets. Your dog won’t be squeezed into a schedule—they’ll have consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. As a longtime dog owner myself—sharing my home with an Olde English Sheepdog, Border Collie, Shih Tzu, and Miniature Poodle—I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, attention, and genuine affection. In my home, your rules. I'm fine sleeping with dogs. I'll feed and play on your established schedule. I'll order in if the dogs can't be left alone.

About: I've had dogs all my life, currently have a 3 year old Husky mix (50lbs), who LOVES other dogs. I've successfully crate trained pups, although my current set-up with Goose, our Husky, he has a built in dog home inside our condo, along with a doggy door to our patio, which has alleviated any need for a crate. I work from home, part-time marketing job, allowing me to watch dogs, take them on walks, throughout the day. Outside of taking and picking up my daughter from school, and normal errands around town, I'm at home throughout the week and weekends. Goose, our 3 year old Husky, has a large enclosure I built underneath the stairs that is secured with a dutch door with ample room for him to walk around. My condo (1,600 square ft) has an fully enclosed outdoor patio with both a rock area and fake grass pee pad, with a doggy door which is always open, for Goose (and your pup) to freely go back and forth. My condo community itself is extremely dog friendly with nicely manicured walkways, along with a golf course that wraps around the complex - ideal for taking pups on walks.

Mary did an outstanding job looking after my precious boy, Cornelius. The photos and comments she sent were adorable and gave me peace of mind. It was a delight to come home to a happy cat that had been loved, cared for, and pampered in my absence. I am lucky to have found Mary and would re-book her in a heartbeat. I can’t recommend her enough.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every pet in my care. As a dedicated dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and truly attentive watching over your fur baby. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I intentionally plan my week to make sure every pet in my care receives dependable attention, patience, and love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully so pets feel secure in their familiar space. I also keep homes tidy and respect each client’s preferences and boundaries.

About: 🐾 Need a Reliable Dog Sitter? I've Got Your Tail Covered! 🐾 Heading out of town or working long hours? Let your pup stay safe, happy, and loved right in their own home! ✅ Experienced & trustworthy ✅ Daily walks, playtime & snuggles ✅ Administering meds if needed ✅ Updates & photos sent to you ✅ Available weekdays, weekends & holidays Whether it’s for a day, a weekend, or longer treat every dog like my own! Retiring soon, I work from home. I can’t really have a dog. I look forward to spending meaningful time with animals and sharing unconditional love with your furry friend while you’re away from home. My approach to pet care is always personalized to meet the unique needs of each animal, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness. Depending on the services requested, here’s how I typically provide care: Feeding: I follow the specific dietary instructions provided by the pet owner, including portion size, feeding times, and any special dietary needs or restrictions. I make sure fresh water is always available. Medication: If pets require medication, I administer it carefully according to the owner’s directions. This includes pills, topical treatments, or any other prescribed care, while closely monitoring the pet for any side effects or changes in behavior. Walking and Exercise: For dogs, regular walks tailored to their energy levels and physical condition are a priority. I ensure they get enough exercise and bathroom breaks to keep them healthy and happy. I’m attentive to leash safety and environmental conditions during walks. Play and Enrichment: Pets receive plenty of interactive playtime, stimulation, and affection to keep them mentally engaged and emotionally satisfied. This might include playing with toys, training exercises, or just spending quiet cuddle time. Comfort and Supervision: I maintain a safe and calm environment, making sure pets have a cozy space to rest and feel secure. I monitor their behavior closely to detect any signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. Communication: I keep pet owners updated regularly with photos, messages, or videos, sharing how their pet is doing and any noteworthy observations.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. From my childhood German Shepherd to my first puppy, I’ve always had a special connection with dogs. That explains why I live happily with two fur-babies, Rigatoni and Millie. Between caring for my clients pets and pets of my own over the last decade, I believe I have attained the necessary skills to properly care for any house pet no matter the size or temperament. I understand the love and attention our fellow canine friends need. I make it my responsibility to keep my client's pets active, regular, well-fed and properly groomed. I stick to a schedule and prefer a 24-hour notice, but I can definitely remain lenient with last minute conflicts as we all have them at one point or another. That said, I work from home and can certainly be flexible with your schedule. I am almost always willing to make special accommodations. I graduated from UCLA and work as a media planner for Ohio State University. In my free time, I’m always looking for flexible ways to combine my passions with work. I work from home and am free every day of the week. I live in a home with a large fenced backyard and tons of shade. I enjoy walking my dogs in the evening when it has cooled down a bit but I am totally willing and able to take your fur baby on as many walks as they need to stay healthy and happy. Additionally, I can always crate your fur baby or keep them in a private room if necessary.

I really appreciate Megan, she's very loving with Bisquit, plays with her, makes sure food is right, fresh water, litter changes. Sometimes I have to head out in a hurry and she's willing to work with me on the phone to find things that need to be found. She's perfect for what we want and need for sure!

I met Megan for the meet and greet for her to drop in to check on my cat while we were out of town for a few days and I immediately trusted her. I appreciate her excellent communication and as a bonus she took great photos of my cat which made me feel even more at ease. She was super helpful and followed all care requests perfectly.

Hannah and William are extremely good at what they do, and are incredibly qualified as well! They willingly took the time to get to know our Dogs before we even left on our trip. Both of them have a very soft and kind approach to nervous dogs of which we have one. In no time Our dogs were extremely comfortable around William. William was our primary dog sitter and did a tremendous job. He went above and beyond while we were away. I highly recommend Hannah and or William if you need someone to take care of your most beloved Members of your family!

Melissa was the best possible answer for our need to care for our 3 cats during our vacation! She did everything we asked and more. She clearly cares a lot and knows what she is doing. The kitties were all healthy and happy when we got home, and the photos we received while we were gone show that our shy cats warmed up to her right away. The house was all as we left it, if anything a little cleaner. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants a kind person to care for their animal friends and to keep a responsible eye on things while they are away.
