Dog Sitting Hockley

About: I have been around and owned a number of different animals all throughout my life. I have a very soft spot in my heart for dogs and kitties. I used to find stray dogs as a kid and do my best to find them a loving home. Pets make everything better! I am currently a student doing all my schoolwork online from the comfort of my home. I run a couple errands during the day but they don’t keep me away from home for long. I also have a 15 year old daughter who does homeschooling and also loves pets just as much as her mom. There’s usually always someone home to care for the animals. I have a very well fenced in backyard. I have a big front yard also that I take the pets out in but on a leash of course. I also have an elderly small female dog. I have a male young cat, he’s inside and outside so he’s not always around

“Awesome sitter and my 3 Shepherds were well taken care of...Kari is always communicating and everything went extremely well. Definitely recommend and may even try boarding with her another time and her house in the future !!”

“Cathleen was great! I really appreciated her stopping by before her scheduled time to meet our dogs and get to know their routine before their scheduled walk!”

Scout O.

“Stephanie was great! She understood how shy my cat was and did her best to make him comfortable and hang out! She was great with communication and got all the tasks I asked done! Thanks again Stephanie!”

Gina M.

“Ashley is great! I was surprised how quickly my scaredy cats warmed up to her which shows she really takes the time and cares=) Will definitely be using her again!”

Heather

“Kristina was awesome! Our dogs were in great hands while we were out of town for the day. She sent pictures and text updates during both of the visits. We recently moved to the area so finding someone we can trust to take care of our dogs seemed hard, but Kristina made us feel at ease :) we will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and have grown up around so many. Dogs, cats, ducks, turtles, birds, etc. I have a 17 year old dog and a 2 year old cat and I love them both more than anything. I would love to get to know and take care of your pet! I work full-time with a hybrid schedule, so I have full availability on weekends and Fridays. Monday through Thursday, I’m available before 7:00 AM and after 5:00 PM. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve! Your pets’ safety and well-being will always be my top priorities! I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. ❤️

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting with my parrot I’ve had since I was 8, along with growing up with cats and a dog. Over the years, I’ve also pet sat for neighbors, friends, and family, becoming someone they trust to care for their pets like my own. I have experience with cats, dogs, and birds, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, with a good understanding of pet behavior. I also provide updates and follow all care instructions to make sure both pets and owners feel at ease. I currently work full-time but have a flexible schedule that I manage myself. On weekdays, I’m typically available after 5 PM, and on weekends after 6–7 PM. I am fully available on Mondays and Tuesdays. I always make time to prioritize the pets in my care and can accommodate consistent routines, drop-ins, walks, or extended visits as needed. I’m happy to communicate and coordinate to best fit your pet’s schedule and needs. I create a calm, safe, and loving space where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. At home, I have one cat who is very well cared for and enjoys a relaxed, free-roaming environment. When caring for your pet, I treat them like my own—keeping their routine consistent, following your instructions closely, and making sure they feel secure and stress free. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I always provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: I have owned cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, fish, horses and many other creatures. I have more than 45 years experience with animals and I have also worked in an emergency animal hospital (VCA Spring Branch). I have tons of patience and free time and would love to help out with your pets. I own a tabby cat currently so I am always taking care of her in some way. I am neurodivergent and a bit awkward from C-PTSD, ADHD and mild autism spectrum disorder. I am more than capable of doing a great job with your animal kiddos and probably more in touch with them than humans because they are predictable which is a nice change from humans. I am trying to help my mom in any way I can to send my 18 yr old twins to college even if that just means taking care of myself more without help from her since she and I have coparented for 18 years and she has always been my biggest inspiration and supporter. I have a fenced yard. There are tons of walking trails in the area. I am very relaxed around animals and just love to give attention and companionship. Pets are allowed to be inside and outside. Whatever makes them comfortable. They cannot get out of my yard and I would never leave them unattended outside. I love to meet pets before staying with them even if more than once because their security and comfort allow us all to stay safe and secure especially if i am coming in their house with their humans not there. Please let me know how they act on walks when they run into new people, kids and animals.

About: I’ve always been a dog lover, and when my daughter decided she wanted to become a veterinarian, that love grew to include animals of all kinds. Whether your pet stays in my home, needs a drop-in visit, or joins me for a walk, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I provide a loving, comfortable environment and give each pet the attention they deserve. I also respect your home during visits and clean up after your pet. Keeping you informed matters to me, so I’ll communicate important updates or concerns promptly. My goal is to give you peace of mind and real value for your hard-earned money. Love is my language. Let me talk to your pets! I work from home, so your pet will have regular company and attention throughout the day. My routine allows time for feeding, potty breaks, play, and rest. I occasionally step out for errands, generally for no more than one to two hours. Before booking, we’ll make sure my availability fits your pet’s needs. I provide a loving home with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of toys, and comfortable spaces to relax. New arrivals have time to explore and settle in at their own pace. I follow your pet’s agreed care instructions and can accommodate an established crate routine with clean, comfortable bedding. Soothing bedtime music is also an option to help them settle down.

“Larisa went above and beyond! I booked with her pretty last minute, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She kept me updated throughout the entire stay and even took my dogs to the dog park, which was such a thoughtful extra and not something I had asked or expected her to do. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. I will absolutely be booking with Larisa again!”

“She’s awesome! Communicated with me so much and she made me feel so at ease. And she really showed my baby love which I really appreciate.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for family friends and neighbors since I was 12. It’s been everything from horses to cats. They have all relied and trusted me to take care of their babies. I work a Monday- Friday job that’s 8-5 so I’ll have plenty of time to walk or feed your babies in the morning and evenings. I typically take care of animals in other peoples house because I don’t have a fenced yard and live on ten acres so I wouldn’t want something to happen at my house

About: I started dog walking and pet sitting at 18 as a way to pay rent during COVID. Like anyone learning on the job, I made some mistakes in the beginning, but over the past 6 years, I’ve made a complete 180 — gaining valuable knowledge and refining my skills to care for animals the right way. Now at 24 and working toward becoming a veterinarian, this has grown from a job into a true passion. I combine experience, education, and genuine love for animals to provide the best care possible for your furry friends. My schedule varies weekly, so I update my calendar regularly to ensure you can easily book dog walking and sitting services whenever you need it. When walking dogs, I always bring a water dispenser and doggy bags, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. For dog boarding, your dog will feel right at home! Dogs are welcome on the furniture unless you prefer otherwise, following your training guidelines. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours and extra walks for energetic pups to burn off energy. Bedtime is at 8 PM, with the last walk of the day to help your dog settle in comfortably.

About: I've had a bubbly passion for all animals since childhood. I've owned a menagerie of canines, felines, reptiles, small mammals, and more. I worked at petco for two years, and also have experience as a house cleaner to ensure your home is cleaner than from when I arrived. My attention to detail will guarantee the animal(s) are met with their own unique requirements and filled with lots of love! I am also insured to ensure safety and comfortability. Thank you for your consideration. I have open availability and am flexible on scheduling as I am pursuing this full time. I prioritize mon-fri but am open to pick up certain weekend dates as well. I care for animals by being attentive to all of their needs and ensuring the water is consistently fresh and clean, food is served at the time that matches their current routine, walks and potty breaks are met for them to both relieve them self as well as receive some lovely fresh air and sunshine!

“Very kind and very thoughtful definitely using her services again my cats and dog where well taken care of”
