About: I was raised around animals of all kinds and have always loved caring for them. I’ve spent plenty of time looking after the pets of neighbors, friends, and family, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. Since I’m unable to have a pet of my own, I love taking every opportunity to spend time with other people’s furry friends. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and affection I would want for my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Rover is my full-time job, which means I have the flexibility to build pet care and exercise into my day around what works best for you and your pets. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, some extra playtime, or companionship throughout the day, I’m happy to work with your schedule and give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for in their own home by sticking to their routines and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and love. I’ll also treat your home with care and respect, leaving everything just as I found it.

About: I want to make sure you feel comfortable with me taking care of your pet(s) and/or home and I am open to any questions or instructions you have. I’ve had dogs my whole life and have cared for others’ pets for over 10 years. I’ve raised and trained puppies and am willing to help with training, and have cared for older dogs who have mobility limitations. I am comfortable with any size/breed dog and have basic care knowledge for a variety of animal species! I currently live with a sphinx named Luvi who is my chosen stepdaughter. I’ve been house sitting alongside pet sitting for over 10 years. Last minute bookings are more than welcome. I am often available for morning/evening appointments! I would be happy to discuss an extended pet/house-sitting agreement! I welcome notes and will ask questions if anything is unclear or unexpectedly occurs. I am eager to respect any directions or guidelines you have for your pet and home.

About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets responsibly since the age of 7. I have a gift in being able to build trust fairly quickly with all pets. I work from home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to furry friends :) I have a flexible schedule so I’m able to take on pet responsibilities at a last minute’s notice more often than not. I spend a lot of time on my own so a pet would add to my day to day! I have an apartment with 3 dog parks less than a block away, and I have plenty of space for cats. We have a a very secure building with fob access so the security of your pet is very high!

About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience working in dog daycare and boarding facilities. Caring for dogs has always been something I'm passionate about, and I've had the opportunity to work with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I'm comfortable caring for multiple dogs, supervising playtime, maintaining a safe environment, and making sure every pup receives the attention and care they deserve. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Rover is my primary focus, so I have flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I'm available for daytime visits, walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I'm happy to work with your schedule and accommodate your pet's individual needs whenever possible. I welcome advance bookings and look forward to providing reliable, loving care for your furry family members! Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. With over 7 years of professional dog daycare and boarding experience, I understand the importance of proper supervision, secure environments, and recognizing each dog's individual needs and behaviors. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. I follow owners' instructions carefully and treat every pet with patience, love, and care as if they were my own.

About: I am a dog owner myself and would love to play with other dogs as well. I am an active person as well so if you’d like me to go on a run with your dog, I can do that:) I wouldn’t mind going on simple walks either ! Starting today (11/8) I have four weeks off from my current job so I am available 8-4pm on weekdays and available to drop in on weekends if needed! I am currently giving all my attention to my current dog, Pisco! I can drop in after 4pm on tuesdays, wednesdays, and friday’s only. I can easily get a dog into their crate when needed. Taking care of dogs is second nature to me as my friends always ask to have me take care of their own pets!

About: Hi there! I’m a big animal lover and active volunteer at my local animal shelter and routinely foster dogs in need. I have experience providing medication to dogs of all sizes and modifying schedules based on each dog’s needs. I’ve owned dogs ranging anywhere from 10 pounds to 70 pounds, and am confident that I can provide the support your dog needs. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I’m currently working part time, meaning I have plenty of time to adjust to varying schedules and last minute requests! I also live in a central part of Houston, making my commute quick and accessible to most places. If I am house sitting or providing a drop in service to your home, I ensure that no interactions are made with other dogs or animals outside the home, as I want to ensure the safety of your pets first and foremost! I also make sure to read your dog’s body language, and remove them from any situations that may be causing them distress (neighborhood dogs they do not like, loud sounds that startle them, etc).

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and have been caring for them my entire life. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have regularly trusted me to walk, feed, and pamper their pets. I treat every dog like my own family, ensuring they get plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I work a full-time job Monday through Friday, but I am off every day by 5:00 PM to handle evening visits. I am completely open on weekends as those are my scheduled days off! I am not available for overnight stays since I have my own dog to look after. Instead, I specialize in safe, dependable dog walking and drop-in visits to give your pets the attention they need. :)

About: With over 10 years of pet-sitting experience and a lifetime spent around animals, I bring both experience and genuine care into every home I enter. I believe pets deserve more than having their basic needs met—they deserve patience, companionship, affection, and someone who takes the time to understand their individual personalities and routines. I’m attentive, nurturing, respectful of each pet’s boundaries, and committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment while their family is away. I also treat every home with the same care and respect I would want someone to give my own. I have taken care of all sizes of dogs from Rottweilers to German Shepard to jack russel terroirs. Cats, dogs, bearded dragons, bunnies, turtles and more. I truly enjoy having a pet as they bring life to a family in ways they never knew they could! For me, pet sitting is an opportunity to build meaningful connections with animals while giving their families peace of mind. 🐶🐱🤍 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and make sure they have someone in the home connecting with them as much as possible! 📆🦮 I care for each pet according to their individual personality, needs, established routine, and their owner’s household rules. I understand that every pet is different, so I take time to learn their feeding and walking schedules, energy levels, boundaries, favorite activities, sleeping routines, and any special instructions their owner provides. I also respect all home rules, including where pets are allowed, cleanliness expectations, security procedures, and how the home should be maintained. My goal is to keep their environment and routine as familiar and comfortable as possible while providing plenty of attention, companionship, and loving care. 🐾🤍

Amber was absolutely amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She was so attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring with our pets. She kept us updated throughout our trip, sent pictures, and made sure we knew they were happy and well taken care of. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. She went above and beyond, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared. We are so grateful for her and would 100% recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and loving pet sitter! ❤️
