Fun Caring Dog Lover!

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Iris and I am a graduate of Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi. I am a huge dog lover and have had dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was a kid. I have potty trained and kennel trained multiple puppies and have even tube fed new born puppies. I have also taken care of my friends and families dogs for the past 15 years and they all have been happy by my dedication and love for animals. I have 4 fun loving American Bullies who love to play and lay out in our deck in our big back yard. I have house trained and kennel trained all four dogs and I am not afraid of a challenge. I live with my husband who is former vet tech. He has taught me a lot about animal care and behavior. I am also a former EMT and I am familiar with basic first aid. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and energy levels. I don't mind if your dog is super active, as I have one that's pretty active myself. In my spare time I volunteer at the wildlife animal center and help feed and administer medication to different animals of different backgrounds. Also in my spare time I take out my fur-babies to the dog park or walk them around Memorial or Hershey Park. I would love to be given the opportunity to also look after your fur-babies at your home when you are away or take them out to the park to play. I promise to play with them and keep them as happy as possible so that they won't be sad because you are away. I am available Monday-Fridays after 5 pm and all day on the weekends. I can come out to any part of Houston, Pearland or Sugar Land and I am available even on holidays and in the summer. I promise to always take care of your pets as if they were my own and to be dependable and caring :) I am so excited to to look over your fur-babies.

Iris was absolutely phenomenal taking care of my dog. She was always giving me updates on his potty breaks and feeding times and I felt very safe leaving my dog with someone I could trust and see as reliable. I am looking forward in working with heron the near future. Highly recommendable!

Iris was so reasonable, flexible, and genuinely willing to help us out! This was our first Rover experience and it was great. Not only did she agree to meet with us on very short notice, but her punctuality for the pre-meet and the drop in were both square on! Our dogs are VERY finicky about meeting new people and actually going out for them. They both took to Iris immediately and loved her right away. Then...... they actually went potty for her! She obviously made them very comfortable and that makes me happy. GREAT job, Iris!

Iris is a miracle worker. I have a very energetic and slobbery American Bulldog who can be a bit much for some. He loves seeing Iris, and plays so well with her it is fantastic. She is very attentive and gives him tons of love and attention. I have recommended Iris to friends and family for their pets, and I will definitely have Iris watch my pup again and again

Information Iris M. would like to know about your pet

I can watch any type of dog of any breed or size. I have had pitbull and chihuahuas and I am not intimidated by size. I would love to know the following before taking care of your doggy: -Feeding schedule -Potty schedule -Are they house trained (if they are not, that's not a problem) -Are they escape artists -Energy level -Are they dog aggressive (if they are, that's not a problem) -Are they food or toy aggressive (if they are, that's not a problem) -Are they taking any medications Knowing the above points will help me understand your fur-baby and help me keep him or her happy and safe.

A typical day

I can take your dog to any park, trail or dog park that they prefer. Some of my favorite parks are Memorial Park, Hershey Park or Allen Parkway. I can practice tricks and commands if you wish or just play ball :)
