About: i’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. i take the time to make shy or anxious pets feel safe and comfortable, and i adjust my approach depending on their energy level and needs. i’m also very reliable with routines and communication, so you can trust your pet is getting consistent care and attention. pet care is part of my everyday routine, as i currently care for two kittens with consistent feeding, cleaning, and play schedules. i’m used to planning my day around their needs, so incorporating additional pet care is something i can do reliably & consistently. when caring for pets in a client’s home, i focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. i follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific preferences your pet has. i take the time to understand each cat’s personality—whether they’re social or more independent—and adjust my approach so they feel comfortable in their own space. i also keep the home tidy and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I have always loved dogs and all animals. I have a small and friendly pomeranian. Your pets would have full range of my apartment. I aim for 4 walks a day but can do more if your pet is accustomed to that. I will do whatever I can to make your pets happy and comfortable while they stay with me. Thanks for reading and I hope to work with you and your furbabies. I don't like taking multiple clients at once but if you have multiple pets that's okay. I can offer 4 walks a day. I work from home so your pet will not be left unattended for long periods of time. I am awake around 8 am and go to bed around 11. I can wake up earlier to walk your dog. Your pet has full access to the apartment. I have pets myself so my place is pretty pet proof. I will follow any directions you leave me.

About: I grew up in a house caring for cats, dogs, and chickens. Additionally, I was in 4-H for 10 years, caring for sheep and goats. I have a wide range of pet sitting experience, caring mostly for dogs and cats through drop ins, walks and overnight stays. I have great attention to detail and am a good communicator. I will do my best to serve each client's wants and needs for their pets, knowing how much they love them and want to keep them safe! I have a full time job but it is hybrid. I work from home 3/5 days a weeks and have a flexible work schedule, available to drop in during the day. Also, my evenings are generally free. I respect each client’s space and make sure it is left exactly how I found it, if not cleaner. Each client has unique needs and I cater to them to ensure the best care possible.

I’m patient, reliable, and attentive — making sure every pet feels loved while their owners are away.

About: If you're looking for an experienced pet caregiver who cares about the health, safety and care of the animals she looks after, you're in great hands. I have previously worked for Houston Dog Butler where I cared where I focused on cat sitting and dog walking. I will learn about your pet's personality and quirks before we develop a lasting friendship together. I will, without a doubt, give the upmost care for your loved one. I’m currently full time pet-sitting on Rover and have plenty of availability throughout the weekdays and weekends. Send me a request and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible! ❤️ As a cat parent to two myself, I know it takes time and patience to get most cats to warm up to you and I love to learn each pet’s individual quirks.

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I always strive for a 5-star experience, but my top priority will always be the safety of the pets in my care. I chose to refuse a request to take a cat outside without a harness, as the flight risk was far too high. It resulted in a low rating, but I will never compromise an animal's safety. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

About: Natalia and I both have had dogs for most of our lives and get tons of joy from being around dogs all the time. We even met each other with our dogs. Life with Pepper, our miniature dachshund, is full of laughs, strolling around the neighborhood, and endless cuddling. She is always making us laugh with her larger than life personality. We plan to get another dog, and in the meantime, we would be happy to hang out with yours if you need a sitter while you head out of town. Pepper loves dogs, and they will be running around and cuddling and playing most of the day. Pepper has lived with dogs before and likes to have friends over. We look forward to helping out with your pup! Update: Welcome to Lola, our new lab rescue! Update 2026: Sadly, Pepper crossed the rainbow bridge in 2024, and now we have a wonderful scruffy rescue, Tallulah! Stay tuned for added photos as we move along!
