About: Hi there! I’m a doctoral student with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve shared my home with 3 amazing dogs and 1 sweet (and very opinionated!) cat, and I’ve run a neighborhood dog walking and pet sitting service. One of my dogs was trained by me from puppyhood, which taught me the power of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I understand that every pet has their own quirks and needs, and I always aim to connect with them on their terms. Whether your furry friend loves cuddles, playtime, or just a calm presence, I’m here to make them feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Please refer to the scheduling area on my profile for specific availability! About My Availability: Hey there! I’m here to keep your pets happy and well-exercised. I’m a busy doctoral student, so I’ve crafted my schedule to balance school and furry friend fun perfectly. Generally, I am in clinicals on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9-6, and Fridays from 9-12. However, there is always space in my schedule, and I will consistently provide weekly updates in this section for your convenience. Here’s when I’m usually available to help out during the week: Every day: Early bird? I’ve got you covered with walks from 5:00 AM to 6:00 AM — a great way to start the day! Monday: Available in Houston after 6 pm Tuesday: Unavailable Wednesday: Available in Houston after 6 pm Thursday: Available in Houston after 6 pm Friday: Available in Houston after 12 pm Saturday: My schedule’s wide open — perfect for spontaneous walks or playdates! Sunday: Free until 4:00 PM for your furry friend’s needs. If your schedule’s a bit different, just ask — I’m flexible and happy to help whenever I can! Looking forward to meeting your pets and making their tails wag! Beyond this week, I would love to work with your furry friend, and I will be able to answer any questions you have! For drop-in visits and dog walking, I focus on giving your pet quality time, whether a fun, energizing walk or calm, attentive companionship during a quick visit. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved, whether I’m there for a few minutes or overnight. When house sitting, I stay overnight at the pet parent’s home to provide consistent, loving care and maintain your pet’s usual routine in a familiar environment. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort while you’re away.

Medical pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ginger was amazing! Our dog is shy, scared, and difficult to deal with. Ginger knew exactly how to make her feel comfortable and bring her out of her shell, and Ginger was great at dealing with her quirks and checking on her wellbeing. We also loved how responsive and accommodating Ginger was! Definitely we will be relying on Ginger in the future.
Raven was a wonderful sitter! She arrived on time, communicated well throughout the stays, and took great care of my dog. She also left thorough notes & pictures for me to review while I was gone! Trust her, your animals will be in good hands. I plan to rebook with her for future care!

We had a great experience with Cheyenne! She was extremely responsive, very professional, and sent the cutest, highest-quality photos of my dogs during each visit. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in great hands. Highly recommend her for drop-in visits!

Darren was the best cat sitters I’ve ever had. He was responsive, accommodating, and provided daily updates. He even checked on items that I didn’t instruct him to check such as the litter box and food level of my automatic feeder. Definitely goes above and beyond. I will be booking again with him in the future.
