“Kin was excellent! My little man Ziggy is a Houston SPCA rescue with trust issues. Kin and he quickly became friends and hence I now have a solid choice of who to call when I am away from home. Short trips with my partner just became a whole lot easier! I highly recommend Kin!”



“Deanna took great care of my foster pup while I was out and about. She accommodated an overnight stay last minute, which really helped me out. I will continue to book with her ??”


“We absolutely loved our experience with Cheyenne! My dog instantly connected with her and would cry when she left—he adored her that much. Cheyenne was not only reliable and communicative, but she also helped curb some of his bad leash behaviors with patience and skill. Her genuine care and professionalism really stood out. I would absolutely book her again without hesitation.”


“Kelsi is amazing! She is so kind and seems to really enjoy Huckleberry. While I was recovering from surgery and on bed rest my dog was looking forward to when she came for his walk. I cannot say enough kind things about her and I definitely recommend her. She will now be Huckleberrys new dog walker 😁”


“Chelsea is so great! We use her at least once a week (usually more) to walk our pup while we’re at work! She always sends multiple photos and updates after she is done walking! She is quick to respond so booking is always easy and flexible! Our dog has a lot of puppy energy and Chelsea is great with helping wear her out! We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!!”


“Anna is great! I trust her with my baby and will even take super late requests. If you cannot be home and need your little one to be taken for a walk, I would pick her over anyone in the area.”



“I feel incredibly lucky to have found this dog walker, Lindsey. She is reliable, trustworthy and knowledgable about pups—excellent in the intuitive understanding of canine behavior. If you are looking for a good dog walker w/training talent, I highly recommend Lindsey!”


“Jennifer did a wonderful job with my dog. Even though my dog refused to go for a walk, Jennifer stayed to play with him. She even tried several times to get him out but the time turned into some playtime together.”


About: I had always had pets for most of my life (since I was 3) and love animals so much that I even had worked at a humane society for about a year in 2016. Thankful for the experience as well as being able to find my lil guy Peanut. I’ve had him since he was 2 months old. He was my failed foster lol I couldn’t imagine not having him be part of my little family. I have a set schedule at work and set days off which is great in regards to also having set availability for Rover and being able to help out other families with fur babies. I always make sure they’ve had their potty break and get enough stimulation from either playing or walks. Give lots of love and pets and treats.

“Jessica was absolutely incredible! My dog is a rescue and he took to her immediately. She was punctual and put my mind at ease about leaving him to go out of the country for a few days. I HIGHLY recommend her.”


About: I have lifelong experience and a genuine love for animals. I grew up with both dogs and cats and would assist in caring for my neighbor's animals when they were out of town. I have also had several roommates with both types of animals as well so I know how to handle pets of all ages. Since I have a cat, a dog that is cat-friendly is a must for me when boarding in my own home! Additionally, I may be boarding more than one animal at a time so we should discuss any behavioral needs or requirements to keep separated. I prefer to be as transparent as possible. I am open to any dynamic when providing pet care outside of my home. Working remotely allows me to be almost always home, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve. During COVID, I spent weeks caring for various animals in client's homes and ranches, gaining hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and various other animals like guinea pigs, rabbits, sugar gliders, birds, etc. I am very interested in knowing about the habits you keep when caring for your animals and any fun or quirky behaviors they may have. Communication is key, and I want to know it all to make both you and your animal feel safe and at ease. Whether it is for a check-in, a nice walk, or boarding. My background in pet sitting, combined with my current lifestyle, makes me a reliable and dedicated caregiver for your furry friends. I work remotely during regular business hours. This means that I do need to be home with a private internet connection whilst working. However, I do have much more flexibility with being able to go for walks, check-ins, or basic presence and care. In my home: I have a first floor apartment with a very large L-shaped privacy screened concrete patio. There is a drain in my patio and turf grass. I do not have any toxic plants to cats or dogs within my home area. I also do not own a dog crate. I am a cat friendly home and am open to other cats and having another litter box for them. Please make me aware of any medical issues your animal has and whether they would need to be kept separated for the safety of my own animal. I do have cameras in my main living space. In my client's home: I follow your rules in your home. I would never bring another animal or human into it and I respect your privacy and the safety of your animal(s) and belongings. I do ask for clear instructions and communication and am happy to provide the same in return. Whether that's photos or texts to see how your fur baby is doing or quick and reasonable last minute requests.

About: I’ve been taking care of my family pets since I was 10. I love all kinds of pets! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and ferrets. I’ve trained our family dogs many tricks and my cats loves me. I currently work from home 2 days out of the week and I love taking walks everyday after work and especially on the weekends. I’ve recently move to this area and couldn’t take any pets with me. So I would often times take these walks by myself (unless our family dog Naruto visits me). So I’m looking for a new buddy to walk with! We have enough space in our home for a crate and any pets of any size. We love dogs and cats, and welcome them anytime!

“Shelby is awesome! She came over to greet the pups and they instantly fell in love with her. Shelby is very patient, kind and loving with animals. Can’t wait to book her again in the near future.”


About: “What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of responsibility, empathy, and adaptability. As someone who manages a home, studies, and keeps a consistent fitness routine, I know how to stay organized and committed — qualities that naturally carry over into pet care. I treat every animal like part of the family, and I adapt to their unique needs, whether it’s giving extra patience to a senior pet or playful energy to a puppy. I’m also bilingual, which helps me communicate clearly with a wide range of clients and follow detailed instructions. Above all, I bring calm, care, and reliability to every visit.” Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine. As someone who exercises and goes for runs regularly, I often take my pet along with me — it keeps both of us healthy and active. I’m also a student and manage my home, so having a structured routine is important. Caring for my pet helps me stay organized, responsible, and connected to a sense of balance in my busy days. It’s not just a task — it’s a part of my lifestyle.” When I offer dog walking services, I make sure each walk is safe, structured, and enjoyable. I follow any special instructions from the owner — like preferred routes, leash preferences, or avoiding certain areas. I pay close attention to the dog’s behavior and energy level to adjust the pace and keep them comfortable. Walks are not just for exercise, but also for stimulation and connection, so I make sure the dog feels engaged and cared for.” During drop-in visits, I follow the pet’s daily routine as closely as possible. I check that they have fresh water and food, take them out for potty breaks, and spend quality time playing or cuddling if they enjoy that. I also keep the pet’s area tidy and follow any specific care instructions left by the owner. I always make sure to send updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away.”
