Pet care experience

🐶 Pet rescuer, rehabber and sitter

With over 2 decades of personal and professional experience, I provide compassionate, expert care for your animal companions. With my background as a professional pet groomer and daycare attendant, it allows me to offer more than just a standard visit; I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and specialized handling to every interaction. ​I specialize in "stress-free" care, particularly for senior pets, those with medical limitations, or animals experiencing anxiety. Whether it is maintaining a hygienic environment, managing large groups of dogs, or providing personalized in-home attention, my goal is always the safety and well-being of your pets. ​Experience & Qualifications: ​Professional Grooming: Over 2 years of specialist experience, including operating a mobile service focused on senior and special needs pets. ​Behavioral Knowledge: I'm professionally trained in dog behavior and experienced in supervising diverse groups of animals in high-activity environments. I've also worked in pitbull rescue and rehabilitation along with fostering! I've rescued and rehabilitated every type of pet from dogs and cats to reptiles and even know how to handle farm animals! (I've ridden horses off and on since I was 4) ​Reliable Care: Proven track record in daycare management, kennel hygiene, and feeding protocols. ​Anatomy & Wellness: My recent education in massage therapy has actually helped support an empathetic, health-conscious approach to animal service. ​I am committed to providing a welcoming and secure environment for your pets, ensuring they receive the same high-level care I have delivered throughout my professional career in Houston

House Sitting • Jul 03, 2026

I had never left my fur baby with anyone but family and was really worried about leaving her with a stranger, but Randi eased my concerns from the first moment we met! She was so sweet with my girl and sent me regular updates while I was gone. She did an excellent job the entire time and probably took better care watching my baby than my family would have!

Doggy Day Care • Nov 21, 2019

My 3 dogs had a lot of fun when they stayed with Randi for daycare. She has 2 dogs and a decent size backyard for them to run around. She is an animal lover and has many years of experience caring for pets.

Randi did an awesome job watching my two dogs for several days! She's very trustworthy and thorough. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs.

I had Randi watch my CKCS puppy, Lyla, when I went on a weekend vacation. At the time my dog was still being potty trained and wasn’t completely crate trained either. Randi still agreed to watch her and I am so thankful that she did!! She took care of her as if she were her own. This was also very last minute and she jumped at the chance to keep her for me. I would highly recommend Randi any day to watch over your pets!

Schedule

I do have to have a day job, but it's flexible so I fit my work schedule around my pet care schedule. My daily schedule is built around providing high-quality, specialized service to animals. I am currently filling my free time with as much pet sitting as possible so that I save up to take a week or so off once I give birth to our daughter in early Sept!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Randi can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
Medical & Physical Needs: Understanding health conditions or senior status helps me provide appropriate "stress-free" accommodations. Behavioral Profile: Knowing about anxiety or specific triggers allows me to manage the environment safely and effectively. Grooming & Sensitivity: Information on coat maintenance and touch sensitivities is vital. Routine & Training: Knowing their feeding schedule, favorite enrichment toys, and known commands helps me maintain their daily consistency. Emergency Contacts: Having your veterinarian’s information and emergency protocols on hand is a top priority for responsible care.
