Availability
I’m semi-retired, which means I have the flexibility to provide reliable, around-the-clock care for your pets. Your dog won’t be squeezed into a schedule—they’ll have consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. As a longtime dog owner myself—sharing my home with an Olde English Sheepdog, Border Collie, Shih Tzu, and Miniature Poodle—I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, attention, and genuine affection.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, your rules. I'm fine sleeping with dogs. I'll feed and play on your established schedule. I'll order in if the dogs can't be left alone.

Information Carl G. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any special needs, routines, or behaviors your dog may have so I can provide the safest and most comfortable care possible. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes—from small to large—and all kinds of personalities, including those with a little extra attitude. I promise, I've seen it all!
A typical day
We’ll start with a stroll around the neighborhood so your pup can catch up on all the latest “pee-mail.” Then it’s game time—tug-of-war, fetch, and whatever gets that tail wagging—followed by well-earned scritches and some quiet time to relax. And of course, we never forget the most important part: mealtime.

Pet care experience
With over 10 years of experience owning and operating a grooming and boarding facility in Houston, Texas, I bring professional, hands-on expertise to every dog I care for. As a devoted dog owner myself (four fur-kids and counting), I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs—including administering medication, handling anxious or difficult dogs, and, of course, managing the occasional mess with patience and care. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and attentive, but most importantly, I genuinely love dogs—and they know it. When you’re done booking, be sure to tell your dog I said hi.
Reviews
Carl was a good sitter. He provided frequent updates and cared for our pups like they were his!
Carl is the best! We love bringing Atticus over knowing hell be in good hands and well taken care of!
Wonderful care of our two dogs. We appreciate Carl G.'s responsible boarding so much.
Carl is a great pet sitter for my dog with special needs. I feel very confident leaving Bea in his care. He is kind, and intuitive to the personalities of dogs. I highly recommend him.
