4. Katelynn J.
“Katelynn took very good care of our kitties. They both loved her and cuddled with her. She even brushed them. Our boy is usually very shy and anxious, but got along with her great immediately. We received videos and pictures. She knows a lot about cats, which is great, because one of our cats has health issues. It’s hard to find cat people on Rover, but she definitely is a cat person. We can highly recommend booking with her. We will definitely again. Thank you also from Bartleby and Lady ?”
5. Reagan W.
“Reagan did a wonderful job and will definitely look to have her come again. Our pups we smiling and super happy when we came home which lets us know we made a great choice with Reagan. Reagan was super responsive and on a late evening request at that. She stayed arrived on time, checked in with us before, during, and after the visit and even took the time to play with them for a bit which she wasn't obligated to do. It's always a great feeling when you know your fur babies are safe. Thank you Reagan and look forward to working with you again! Roo and Augie also agree =)”

13. Alexis S.
About: Hi, I’m Lexi! I am an assistant coach at Sam Houston who has a lot of down time right now and would love to love on your fur babies! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I can’t ever get enough of them! I finally rescued a dog of my own on April 16th, 2023. We have been attached at the hip ever since. We like long walks on the trails in Huntsville, enrichment activities, going to the dog park to play with friends for hours, and I even make her dog food in the crockpot with healthy ingredients. All of our friends are welcome on the couch, bed, or even on the dog beg sunbathing in the window. We are in off-season for softball, so I would love to love on your dog in my free time!! Which I will have a lot of since we don’t start back up until Feb. Even then, I will be able to watch dogs during the week, do drop-ins, and take them on walks! Oakleigh and I love meeting new friends!! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I do take my dog, Oakleigh, on walks in the morning, during the day, and then we go to the dog park for a couple of hours to play with her friends. I am very attentive to their needs and love being able to snuggle up to my Oakleigh after work. My schedule is pretty flexible right now and I have a lot of free time. I also take Oakleigh to run around at our Softball Field at Sam Houston!

About: Pet sitting is a rewarding and fulfilling job that requires patience, compassion and a love for animals. I started pet walking and house sitting for family friends and neighbors at 12 years old. This helped me develop a strong bond with animals and taught me the importance of responsible pet care. With two years of experience working at a boarding/grooming facility I have expanded my skill set to include giving pets medication, dealing with and overcoming scared/aggressive behaviors, providing extra care for old/disabled pets. I was also a cross country runner for 6 years so your babies will get plenty of exercise! I understand the value of trust and reliability when it comes to taking care of someone’s beloved pets, and I take pride in providing top-notch care for furry friend that comes my way! Pet sitting is my primary occupation! I’m so grateful to be able to provide around the clock care for your pets, so they can be checked in on as frequently as needed. I offer top-quality care for your pets. Every day, I start with a 3 mile run with my two dogs, followed by a mix of training, playtime with toys, and leisurely walks filled with exploration. My dogs are crated when Im away and during bedtime occasionally but they also enjoy lounging on the furniture during the day. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement and redirection using treats and toys! Rest assured, your pets will receive the utmost attention and care under my watch.

17. Jasmine V.
“This woman has a heart of gold. Literally the most genuine soul I’ve ever met. You would be blessed to have her around to care for your fur babies! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with mine!!! She’s also very punctual and all around just a very cool individual and animals can sense how legendary she is.”
18. Maci A.
“Maci did a fabulous job! She was on time and took good care of my 2 dogs. She took lots of photo and kept my pups entertained. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”
19. Whitney R.
“Whitney has taken EXCELLENT care of my two French bulldog puppies on many occasions. In my line of work, I need to be away from home for two weeks at a time. It’s too long of a duration for my pups to get “peeked at” by kind neighbors. I needed a special pet sitter who could STAY with them, feed them, watch over them, give medications, and most importantly sleep with them! Whitney gave me updates on my pups’ health and happiness. She sent me photos and made sure all remained well and clean in my home. Peace of mind is what I got every time Whitney stayed with my babies when I had to be away for work.”
