House Sitting in La Porte

About: I'll try to keep this brief or I risk sounding like Dr. Suess . I LOVE animals, even the ones who don't love me. Dogs of all sizes, cats of all colors, anything creepy or crawley or scaley is right up my alley. I grew up with dogs and cats but also rats and mice as well as scorpions, snakes, and lizards. I have experience with every stage of life for these animals as well as a variety of temperaments and medical needs. I have experience with hand rearing kittens and in handling rambunctious puppies. Every animal is unique and I enjoy getting to know each one individually and tailoring their care to their needs! I will say I do not have much experience with birds but I am happy to learn! I have a wonderful job that I love but there are gaps in my work schedule that I would love to fill with animals ! My mornings through the afternoon completely free , I work in the evening and I am available overnight. I will always care for your pets as instructed and to the best of my ability! Feeding, walks, and potty breaks will be consistent with lots of play and attention for the animals who want it!

“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our 12-year-old dog. She actually house that for us and we could tell our dog was very happy and comfortable when we got home. She was very clean and tidy around our house, sent us updates with pictures every day and replied to any text that we had very timely. We appreciated her, taking care of our fur baby and our home. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! I grew up in a big family that always had cats and dogs around, so caring for animals has been a natural part of my life from the start. I’m responsible and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality! From the bubbly ones to those who take longer to open up, I believe every animal deserves empathy, patience, and a loving environment. I’d love to be a fill-in to help make your pet feel comfortable and cared for when you’re unable to be there. I’m working part-time, so I have a conveniently flexible schedule and would love to work with you to accommodate your needs. I’d love to meet you in the way that works best for you. I understand pets are precious to those who love them, and it’s an honor to watch yours! Safety is a number one priority, and all communicated concerns will be closely monitored. I am happy to double-check locking the gate, to feed pets separately if necessary, or to meet whatever requests you may have.

“This is my first time trusting someone to care for Blu. Amanda exceeded ALL of my expectations. I believe that dogs can sense souls of people that they meet, and Blu ADORED Amanda! She was so gentle and sweet with him. She was attentive to his needs and asked plenty of questions about the care she needed to provide. She sent frequent check-ins and pictures. If you want the best in care for your pup, she is your first choice! 10 stars! Thank you Amanda!”

About: Hello, my name is Susie. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I’ve cared for our pet and family/friends pets while they are away on quick trips or vacation. They rely on me for feeding, waking and keeping their pets busy while they are away. my days are very open while my kids are in school. I have plenty of time in my days to care for your pet and keep them busy thought out the day. Feeding, walking, baths if needed, play time, taking them out to potty as often as they need. Most importantly, keeping them safe and stress free while their family is away.

“Yahaira and Nahum were great with our girls. Very responsible and caring. It was a blessing to be able to be away and not feel worried about them getting good care. We truly are excited to welcome Yahaira and Nahum into the family and our girls love them too! Thank you so much!!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I have experience caring for a wide variety of pets. I currently have three cats of my own, including one that I rescued and bottle-fed from just two weeks old. Raising a kitten from such a young age taught me the importance of patience, attention to detail, and understanding the unique needs of animals at different stages of life. I grew up around both large and small dogs and am comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have provided dog and cat sitting services for friends, family, and pet owners, including drop-in visits and overnight stays. I understand how important it is for pets to maintain their routines and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My experience extends beyond dogs and cats as well. I have cared for ferrets, sugar gliders, fish, and turtles, giving me confidence in following specialized care instructions and meeting the needs of a variety of animals. Whether your pet needs playtime, exercise, feeding, medication reminders, companionship, or simply a caring and dependable presence, I am committed to providing the same level of love and attention that I give my own pets I currently work a full-time schedule four days per week from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. I am off on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, which allows me to provide flexible availability for pet care during those days. On my workdays, I am typically available for morning drop-in visits before 7:00 AM and evening visits after 6:00 PM. On my days off, I have full availability for drop-in visits, extended care, overnight stays, and more flexible scheduling to best meet your pet’s needs. I am committed to working with pet owners to find a schedule that ensures consistent, reliable care and keeps pets comfortable and supported while their owners are away. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I believe this helps reduce stress and anxiety, especially for cats and other animals that are sensitive to change. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for both the pet and the home. I follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions exactly as provided and take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, personality, and boundaries. I make sure doors, windows, and any potential escape points are secure during each visit, and I carefully monitor pets during playtime and interaction. I also keep the home tidy by cleaning litter boxes, food areas, and any pet-related messes as needed. During overnight stays or extended care, I maintain a calm and consistent presence to help pets feel safe and relaxed. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care while treating every pet and home with the same level of respect and responsibility as I would my own.

“Absolutely amazing! She is so sweet and made sure my fur babies were taken care of! She arrived on time and gave me updates. My dog, Zeus, loved her! I will definitely book with her again”

“Having never left our 'babies' before with a live-in sitter, I was hesitant. However, from the first interaction Sydney began to put my worries at ease. She asked all of the right questions about them and their habits and while we were away she sent daily updates and pictures. She left our house in perfect order, including a detailed written log of everyday of her stay. I highly recommend her to anyone and plan on using her again for our 'kids'.”

About: I have loved animals ever since the 3rd grade I knew I wanted to be a veterinarian. I graduated from Texas A&M University- College Station with a B.S. of Science in Animal Science. I was able to a lot of hands on exposure that I’ve never got before with livestock. I currently work at a general practice animal hospital in league city as a Veterinary Technician. I’m doing any and everything to help me continue on my path of veterinary medicine. Anything dealing with animals I’m there. I am basically available all the time when I’m not at work. I work 4 days a week for about 9 hours during the day. My early morning and evenings are available. I AM AVAILABLE ON THE WEEKENDS- we would just have to talk about it more in detail. I have cameras inside and outside of my home. Before I left off for school , I begged my mother to get a fence built around our house due to us living on a busy street. I was nervous for my babies. Cars have no mercy and are zooming through. I try my best to make sure they have everything they need regarding food,water, vaccines, treats & toys. Car rides are our favorite things. They also enjoy the doggy park, but due to the Texas heat it’s currently not a safe zone to be outside in the heat for long hours.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for pets comes naturally to me! I’m patient, attentive, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy keeping pet parents updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind! I work full-time during the weekdays, but I’m available for evening visits/walks after work and have much more flexibility on weekends! I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to work with different schedules whenever possible. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for pets comes naturally to me! My roommate and I share a Maltipoo named Lyric, so I’m very used to different personalities from calm senior dogs to more playful energy. I also have a poodle back at home who is basically my daughter, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet with real care, patience, and love. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away and treat them like part of the family.
