Pet Sitting Montrose

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and spent 6 summers working as a competitive dog trainer, where I had the opportunity to work with dogs of all different personalities, breeds, and energy levels. That experience taught me how to read dogs, understand their individual needs, and build trust with them through patience, consistency, and plenty of positive reinforcement. I grew up with dogs in my family and have always loved how naturally friendly, loving, and fun they are to be around. Now that I live in Houston away from my friends, family, and the dogs I grew up with, Rover feels like the perfect way to bring dogs back into my life while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in experienced, caring hands. Whether your dog wants a long walk, some playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply a comfortable companion while you’re away, I’d love to spend time with them! I work full-time in Houston, so I’m typically available for dog sitting, walks, and drop-ins during evenings and on weekends. My schedule can vary a bit depending on work, but I’m happy to plan ahead and coordinate around your dog’s routine. I’m especially interested in weekend stays and sitting opportunities, but I also have flexibility for evening walks and drop-ins when I’m in town. I travel occasionally, so I keep my availability calendar updated and will always communicate my schedule clearly in advance. I’m looking forward to filling my free time with some four-legged friends! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My years of competitive dog training taught me how to read body language, recognize when a dog is uncomfortable or overstimulated, and adjust my approach to each dog’s personality and needs. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and medication routines to walks, house rules, and anything else that helps your dog feel at home. I also understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I’ll communicate consistently, provide updates while you’re away, and treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. Most importantly, I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Enrique M.

“This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and also my first time leaving my cat alone for more than a day, so I was honestly a little nervous going into this. Jacquelyn made the entire process incredibly smooth from start to finish. I had a last minute situation and needed someone quickly, and she was very responsive and easy to communicate with right away. She followed all of the instructions carefully, and I really appreciated the daily updates and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. When I got back home, everything was exactly as it should be. The litter box was clean, food and water were taken care of, and most importantly, my cat was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for (I think my cat actually prefers Jacquelyn to me now. 🤣😅). You can tell she takes this seriously and treats your pet with care and attention. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely recommend Jacquelyn to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter. I would definitely book with her again.”

Calvin H.

“Allison was fantastic with my two cats! She handled everything with care, including giving one of my cats her shot without any issues. The visit notes were detailed and thoughtful, which gave me great peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’m a big animal lover and active volunteer at my local animal shelter and routinely foster dogs in need. I have experience providing medication to dogs of all sizes and modifying schedules based on each dog’s needs. I’ve owned dogs ranging anywhere from 10 pounds to 70 pounds, and am confident that I can provide the support your dog needs. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I’m currently working part time, meaning I have plenty of time to adjust to varying schedules and last minute requests! I also live in a central part of Houston, making my commute quick and accessible to most places. If I am house sitting or providing a drop in service to your home, I ensure that no interactions are made with other dogs or animals outside the home, as I want to ensure the safety of your pets first and foremost! I also make sure to read your dog’s body language, and remove them from any situations that may be causing them distress (neighborhood dogs they do not like, loud sounds that startle them, etc).
