“Harper loved staying with Jennifer, they sent pictures, communicated regularly, made sure Harper was comfortable and treated her like their own. Very thankful we have found our "go to" pet sitter in Galveston! Not to mention their location is very central and easy to pickup and drop off! Thank you thank you!”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Haylie was great with our three little, energetic dogs. She was punctual and a great communicator. Haylie kept them busy, and sent photos. She checked in with questions and updates, and also kept them happy. They were smiling and enjoying their time, as you could see in the photos. I felt confident leaving the dogs with Haylie, and would certainly use her services again. Thank you!”
“Christy cared for my two dogs for four days and three nights, and everything was fantastic. She took excellent care of them, sent us photos, and maintained great communication throughout. I will definitely reach out to her for help again next time!”
“Amazing experience. I did not have any worries while I was away. I also think my dog’s experience here was way better and healthier than the big boarding facilities. Bella came home happy and tired from playing with all her new friends.”
“Heidi was excellent. She treated Gizmo like we was in his own home. They went for walks, played and in general she let Gizmo feel safe and secure as if he was home. Thank you Heidi as we were so worried to leave him for that many days.”
“Robin was kind and gentle with our boy Yoda. He loved it there, I could tell by that big smile on his face. Being available during Christmas was a big deal! Thank you Robin for caring for our little man, even letting him snuggle!!”

“She was so good with my boy!! My dog is a lil toot but she had no problem catering to his special perks! She frequently sent me pictures and updates which made me feel 10x better being miles away! My dog felt very comfortable and safe at her house and he was always was able to exert his puppy energy! Highly recommended her as a reliable sitter ❤️❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of all dogs since I was a little girl I love animals of any kind. My favorite has to be dogs. We just get along so great. I’m currently unemployed pregnant with happy baby number two so I’ll have plenty of time to love care and play with your puppies I live in an apartment so space is limited, though we do go outside and play fetch and tug-of-war go on plenty of walks and plenty of treats
“Sammy was a happy boy during his visit. When we picked him up he looked great. We appreciated the pictures Michelle sent. It was wonderful knowing Sammy was in a safe and caring home.”
“We used Kelly to watch our little Cassie for 5 nights. Each day Kelly sent pictures and videos. She helped us feel at ease being away from her and we knew Cassie was safe and having a blast! The icing on top was the beautiful gift Kelly put together for Cassie when she left. Thanks Kelly for such wonderful service. We will definitely be using you again soon!”

Meghan will be my go-to for all future dog sitting. She took care of my pups as if they were her own. She’s extremely conscientious and caring, as well as professional. My pups loved her and that is part of my litmus test. You cannot go wrong with Meghan in charge!!
Clara did an amazing job taking care of our elderly dog while we were gone for 10 days. She sent us pictures regularly and updates of what he was up to. I know it wasn’t an easy task because he needs a lot of attention. Clara also is very nice and respectful and we appreciate her for taking care of our little Tyson.
