“Our little dog loves Kristen. Kristen is gentle, caring and responsible. My husband and I are getting on in age and hope to increase her hours as the need arises.. We are blessed to have found such dependable help. I highly recommend Kristen.”


About: I’m an experienced, pet-savvy sitter with a deep love for both dogs and cats, available for drop-ins, weekend stays, and last-minute bookings this summer. I’m especially great with shy pets, seniors, special diets, and giving meds if needed. I’m also a proud cat mom of five, so feline care is second nature to me! I grew up with two large dogs (a Rottweiler and a German Shepherd) and worked for five years at Kriser’s/Natural Pawz in Houston, where I learned to handle all kinds of pets and personalities. I’ve also helped find homes for stray dogs and regularly care for multi-pet households. For longer in-home sitting (like while you’re traveling), I do ask to meet and care for your pet a few times beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit. I know how much it means to get photo updates when you're away from your furry family, so I always stay in touch with pictures and notes to keep you in the loop and at ease. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness come first—always. I have a flexible schedule and love incorporating pet care into my routine. I’m generally available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, and I’m happy to coordinate around your pet’s needs. I care for pets in your home, where they’re happiest and most comfortable—surrounded by their favorite toys, cozy spots, and familiar routines. I take the time to get to know their habits and personality, so they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. I’m always respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and make sure everything is safe and secure. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and sense of routine are my top priorities—and I’ll treat them like one of my own while you’re gone.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who works from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog needs long walks to burn off energy or your senior cat just wants some quiet company while they nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in their own home. I know that every pet is different, with their own unique quirks, needs, and personalities—and I take the time to get to know each one. I’ve cared for everything from zoomy puppies to wise old kitties, and I’m comfortable with medication, special diets, and pets who need a little extra patience or encouragement. I also have a soft spot for quirky behaviors—if your dog spins in circles before dinner or your cat insists on drinking from the faucet, I’m here for it. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like family, with personalized care, lots of love, and a healthy dose of silly voices to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching. I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m happy to stop by for visits, walks, or playtime—and if needed, I can even work from your home to keep your pets company. I do have some after-work activities, but I’m great at planning around them to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m also available for overnights and weekends, so whether you’re heading out for a quick trip or a longer getaway, I’ve got you covered. Your pet’s comfort and care are my top priorities, and I’ll make sure they get all the love, attention, and belly rubs (if they’re into that) while you’re away. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things consistent and comfortable while you're away. I never do off-leash walks unless we're in a securely fenced area, and I always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates for a secure fit and peace of mind. When entering and exiting your home, I’m extra mindful of potential escape artists—I never leave doors open and will follow any guidelines you have in place to keep curious pets safely indoors. I’m also used to living with food-motivated sneaks, so it’s second nature for me to stash food safely away (microwave, high counter, pet-proof drawer—you name it!) even if I’m stepping away for a second. It helps keep your pet safe—and ensures I actually get to eat my snack. I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s boundaries, whether that means sticking to a strict feeding schedule, keeping them off the couch, or crating when needed. I’ll send periodic updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and cared for. I also take the responsibility of being in your home seriously—any key, code, or access method you provide will be kept secure, and I’ll make sure everything is locked up safely when I leave.

“Thank you Sherryann for taking my pup for a midday walk. My dog Noir loves the attention and getting some exercise while I am away at work during the day. Will be reaching out to Sherryann again for sure for the next one!”



“Cara was a real lifesaver when my family got Covid and couldn’t give our puppy the exercise she needs. Cara fit me into her schedule with a quick turnaround and not only walked our pup, but worked on puppy skills and training with her! We’ll definitely try to book with Cara again when Scout needs walks”


“Zoe is great! Extremely communicative, right on time, and sent me great updates throughout the walks. I would definitely work with Zoe again!”


“Karli is the bomb dot com”


“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my furry friend to Chance. From the outset, Chance displayed a remarkable level of dedication and professionalism. What truly set Chance apart was his initiative in arranging a pre-walk meeting with both me and my dog. This allowed for a seamless transition on the scheduled day, as Chance already had a good understanding of my dog's needs and preferences. During the walk, Chance went above and beyond by sending regular photo and video updates. These thoughtful gestures not only reassured me of my dog's well-being but also demonstrated Chance's genuine care and attention to detail. I can confidently say that Chance is an outstanding dog walker who genuinely loves what he does. His commitment to providing top-notch care and keeping both pets and owners happy makes him a true gem in the world of dog walking. I highly recommend Chance to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate caregiver for their furry companions.”


“Jesse was so sweet to my boys! Gave them lots of cuddles and love before and after their walks. Would definitely book again!”


“Waqas has been regularly walking my dog for the last few months and has been a huge help to me. He's very flexible and has a really quick response time. I would highly recommend him for any of your dog walking needs.”


About: I’ve been honored to call a tabby cat named Gata and a pit bull named Louie my best friends in this lifetime. I know how much your fur babies mean to you because I know how much mine mean to me and I will do everything I can to ensure their safety, comfort, and happiness! I am experienced with other animal reactive pets and understand how these special buddies require patience, love, and understanding. Rest assured that as a social worker, I have endless patience and compassion to give to your fur babies. I look forward to becoming your pet’s newest best friend! I work full time and my schedule changes a bit but I can usually accommodate walks/drop ins before 9am and after 7pm. Afternoon walks/drop ins can be accommodated, we'll just need to discuss the best time for them. Because my schedule is a bit more unique, I'm big on communication and am open to discuss in advance any scheduling preferences. I am only offering drop in and walking services at the moment so I can give your pups and kitties some direct love, play, and attention in the comfort of their own home and environment.

“We love Ms. Anastasia. I know doggo Benito has a blast with her. He gets excited when I put his things out for them. And her updates make me smile ao much. Thanks for hanging with my rambunctious guy!!”


About: I have been around animals, (dogs, cats, Guinea pigs) since I was little! In fact as a kid I attended a summer camp dedicated to learning how to be a vet. I look forward to getting to know your furry friend and treating them as my own. I have so much love for animals and will be sure to take extra note of what they like, dislike and act accordingly! I love walks, I have an enclosed backyard area with plenty of grass, I am very tall so I don’t mind dogs who walk quickly or pull! I am pawsitive your dog or cat will be happy with me :) I work hybrid and am only in office a few hours a day (usually about 2/3 hours) twice a week. I am a very active person and would love to take your pet on walks with me, my schedule is very flexible so I will be sure to accommodate for your pet to the best of my ability! I have a fenced yard with plenty of grass, I currently live in a two bedroom apartment with plenty of room for your pet to walk around. I also am very clean and make sure there is never anything on my floors so your dog/cat will not be tempted to grab anything!

About: With 40 years of experience caring for cats and small dogs, I provide loving, reliable pet care. Skilled in administering shots and oral medications, I ensure your furry friends are happy, healthy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority! I’m currently not working. So have plenty of free time. As I love pets and to take care of them, I want to try myself as a pet sitter:) I live in apartment complex with few dog parks nearby, all of them are fenced and well equipped! If I care for a pet in clients home, I will always ask about the routine and other questions to make sure your furry friend will stay happy while you’re away:)

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and since moving out from home have raised two of my own! I’ve been a dog sitter/ walker for multiple friends and family and have tons of experience! I currently work 4 days a week and would love to spend the other three helping to take care of your pups for you. I’m currently free Sunday- Tuesday. I have a lot of experience with my own and other peoples dogs. I’m great at following at instructions and am more than willing to go the extra mile for pups that need a little extra something.

“Erica is great! Her pictures and descriptions are so helpful and make me feel like my Skye is in good hands!”


“What a wonderful experience with Sasha! She gave me updates the entire time and was very professional. My dog was well taken care of!”


About: I grew up with dogs and I love being around them. I used to dog sit all the time for friends and neighbors growing up, and I often take care of my sister's pup when she is busy. I think I am very sensitive to animal's needs, whether they be emotional or physical. I love playing games, going on walks or hikes, and also giving belly rubs and cuddles, if that's what the pup wants! I’ve had cats for 15 years, usually senior cats and often with medical needs. I have worked with a variety of cat personalities and feel comfortable and confident reading their signals and boundaries. Let me know what your cat needs and I’ll be able to provide the care they need! I have a 8-5 M-F job, so I can accommodate walk requests best on the weekends. I can schedule drop-in visits any day though, especially if the timing is flexible. I take care of pets in your home according to your instructions, of course, and respecting your home and privacy. I make sure to clean up as needed.

“Beth walked my dog while I was out of town and my dog was staying with my friend. She did a great job. She met with me beforehand and texted me everyday letting me know how it went.”
