Professional Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Need to get away? Can't bring your beloved pet? Well here is your answer. I am a professional pet sitter and have been caring for pets in Katy for over 20 years. I own my own company called A Pet Lover’s Sitting Service. About this sitter: "I decided to provide this service after touring several kennels to board my 2 sweet little pugs while my husband and I went on vacation. We were disheartened by what we saw. The animals were clearly uncomfortable, distressed and nervous to say the least. It absolutely broke my heart! There was no way we were going to put our beloved pets in one of those facilities. I knew there had to be a better alternative! So I started my own pet sitting business. I own A Pet Lover's Sitting Service. I do in home pet sitting and daily dog walking. I have been in business over 15 years. We offer a wide variety of services. See my website at lovepetsitting .com Why I love dog sitting I fell in love with dogs when I got my very first Pug over 18 years ago. He showed me a love I never knew before and I will always have a dog. I started my own in home pet sitting business over 20 years ago because I wanted to offer the best possible care for animals when their owners need to get away. Putting a dog in a kennel can be very stressful for the animal and I knew there was a better alternative! Meet my pets I have a small male pug, 4 years old named Peanut. About my yard I have a private fenced yard at my apt. We also have a dog park here just a few feet from my door! My experience administering medication Yes. I have my own pet sitting service and I have administered many different types of medications including, pills, insulin shots, cough medicine and believe it or not Prozac to a depressed cat. I have also administered many topical medications as well. I am also PET FIRST AID AND CPR CERTIFIED!

Tina was amazing! She agreed to watch my dogs last minute! We did a quick meet and greet ahead of time and she was extremely professional yet very loving towards my dogs. She kept me updated on her visits with pictures and a short message letting me know how they were doing. I will definitely refer Tina to my friends and will use her services again.

Tina was wonderful and truly loves dogs. She advised me how my pup was doing and sent a picture as well. I was very comfortable leaving her with Tina knowing she would be well cared for. I will definitely recommend her to others as well as request her again

I found out last minute that I needed to board my dog somewhere for the weekend, and thankfully I found Tina! She was a lifesaver! My dog, June, had a fantastic time staying with her! I picked her up just as happy as can be!

Information Tina S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if they are crate trained and potty trained. It’s best to schedule a meet and greet for boarding. So schedule with plenty of time to get that done.

Here's where we'll take our walks All around my apartment complex. There is a ton of walking paths and lots of grassy areas. There are also designated dog park areas. One of the dog park areas is right across from my apt. building- just a few feet away!! I also have my own fenced yard. Your dog's sleeping arrangement They will sleep with me in my bed where they are comfortable. If they have a dog bed they sleep on please bring it! Time I'll spend with your dog As I stated I own an in home pet sitting service that requires me to go the owners house to care for their pets. This is usually only part time and it is all I do so I am home most of the day when I am not caring for others pets. I would say I am gone most days just for a few hours at a time. I walk my own dogs approximately 4-6 times a day.
