Availability
Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine since between the two of us, we work from home 2–3 days a week, allowing us to give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. We’re flexible with drop-off times—early morning or the night before—and are happy to discuss boarding options to best suit your needs.

Safety, trust & environment

Information Marlene & Gabriel M. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for us to know your dog’s routine, energy level, and any medical needs or allergies. I also like to know how they behave on walks, around other dogs or people, and if they have any triggers or fears. Feeding schedule, favorite toys, commands they know, and any quirks or habits are helpful too—anything that helps me give them the best care possible and keep them happy and comfortable while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day includes lots of playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention! If the pup is up for it, we’ll go on multiple walks throughout the day to get fresh air, explore the neighborhood, and burn off some energy. I love keeping pets engaged with interactive toys, games of fetch, or simple tug-of-war. Whether it’s playtime outside, a relaxing stroll, or just hanging out together, I make sure each day is full of fun, love, and care.

PAWer Couple!
Pet care experience
We are a caring, active couple who absolutely love animals and will give your pet our full attention and affection—since we don’t currently have pets of our own, your furry friend will be the center of our world while in our care. You might wonder why we don’t have pets now; we both did—Spot, who lived a long, joyful 18 years across three countries and loved going on multiple walks a day, and Moka, whose favorite thing was searching for animals on her walks and playing with bunnies. We also enjoy daily walks ourselves and, living close to Memorial Park and Buffalo Bayou, we take full advantage of the trails and nature—perfect for pets who love the outdoors.
Reviews

Great experience with them both! They were very nice and adaptable. They were able to facilitate early drop offs and pick ups. They gave a lot of pictures and updates for my dog. She’s blind and they brought in a gate to block off stairs. Above and beyond!!!

Marlene & Gabriel were very dedicated and responsible sitters and you can tell they love dogs a lot! :) My dog Max had a very good stay, they took care of him really well, and administered his daily medications too. 10/10 would recommend! :)

The sitters were absolutely wonderful with my puppy! They were caring, attentive, and made sure she felt comfortable and loved. I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend!

Definitely divinely led to this beautiful couple. We couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant experience for our fur baby. She was so happy when we picked her up! She was so well loved and cared for. Should we find ourselves in Houston again, we hope they are still on Rover. Thank you, Marlene and Gabriel!
