About: What started as pet sitting for friends has grown into a genuine commitment to animal care - over the past year I’ve fostered 6 kittens, managing everything from vet coordination to medications, and placed each one in a permanent home. I take the responsibility seriously: consistent communication, attention to routine, and no surprises. Lifelong animal lover who’s just happy to be around your pet🐶🐱❤️ Because I work from home, I’m able to check in on pets throughout the day - a quick visit, feeding, or playtime is never an inconvenience. I’m available most days and can be flexible to fit your schedule, with the exception of Tuesdays. I treat a client’s home with the same respect as my own - leaving things exactly as I found them and keeping to whatever routines the pet is already used to. I’ll always communicate if something seems off, whether that’s a change in appetite, behavior, or anything else worth flagging.
“Natalie was wonderful. She came to my rescue last minute when another sitter canceled. She was prompt w 3x a day walks and left great feedback. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation.”

“Sama is an absolutely fantastic pet sitter! She is incredibly reliable, always on time, and communicates regularly with updates, which gives me great peace of mind. My dog adores her, and it’s clear she has a natural way with animals. She also handles all pets with care and professionalism. I highly recommend Sama to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pets!”
“Maia was great! Communication is top-notch. She’s very responsive, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the visits. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs in her care. Would definitely book with her again!”

I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention during drop-in visits. I’m comfortable following detailed routines and instructions and will make sure your dog gets the exercise, care, and companionship they need while you’re away. I work full-time with a flexible schedule and am available most mornings and evenings, as well as throughout the day on weekends. I can also accommodate midday or afternoon walks and drop-in visits on certain weekdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, medications, routines, and any special needs. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, gets plenty of attention and playtime, and is comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to send photos and updates after each visit so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Yuriko is very professional and a great dog walker! She’s super accommodating and goes out of her way for my dog everytime. I would definitely recommend her to everyone.”

“Anna is great! I trust her with my baby and will even take super late requests. If you cannot be home and need your little one to be taken for a walk, I would pick her over anyone in the area.”

“I am so pleased to have Katie walking my energetic chocolate Labrador! One of the things I appreciate most is her punctuality and reliability. She has only been walking my dog for a couple of weeks, but it already feels like she’s been part of our routine forever. Katie is caring, dependable, and clearly loves what she does. I am so happy with her services and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker! 🐾”


“Patricia is amazing, has made my life so much easier and less stressful while I’m at work since I know she’ll take my doggo out for a walk and relieve after long hours at home. And my boy loooooves her.”

About: I absolutely love being around pets! Any chance I get to take care of them I immediately agree, pets make life so much better. I've been taking care of dogs/cats since the age of 10, it's taught me how to be responsible and its helped me grow. Taking care of furry kids is just as important as taking care of kids. (maybe a bit more important since they don't have the ability to communicate with us :). ) Your furry kids will be in great hands with me!! I am available per my schedule! I do accept last minute services. I am very client oriented, if needed I am always available to provide any sort of service! My furry friends life is my priority, I have a big heavy furry kid of my own and know how to control him. If a pet doesn't feel safe nor comfortable I'll remove them from the area immediately. Furry friends normally instantly trust me but if not I'll work my way into gaining their trust. I give every pet all the attention they need from hugs, cuddles, butty scratches, belly rubs and play time. I'd also give pets treats and food (If parents allow).
About: Pets and owners love my free loving and exceptional care I provide to every animal that I care for, whether it's a drop in, walk, or boarding, I'm dedicated to your pet's welfare and happiness. I reside in a beautiful apartment, but am able to host small to large dogs, take them on walks, and take them on adventures to the play area across the street, I’m also conveniently located near the Buffalo bayou dog park! I have more than 30 years of experience caring for dog, cats, and exotic animals. I also have experience in providing care for senior and special needs pets. My availability is flexible and I can usually work around times that are best to accommodate your busy life schedule, if something is to come up and plans change; I am more than happy to work with you on a refund or extended stays. Being a pet parent myself, taking care of pets naturally fit into my schedule especially since I work from home. Unless your pet requires their food at specific times, they will follow the same schedule feeding and care (which is always in plenty) with my own pet. I have no problem crating your animal if there are used to having their own safe space. I also have a wonderfully sunny balcony that they are welcomed to hang out on under supervision. If spending the night, they are welcome to sleep in the room so they aren’t lonely!
About: I’ve cared for companion, sport, and service dogs for most of my life. I’m currently raising my fourth dog, a beautiful German Shepherd named Pancake. She behaves politely in busy coffee shops, streets, and crowds. I love that I can take her anywhere with me without worrying how she’ll react to unfamiliar dogs and people—she loves just about anyone! Getting Pancake from a rambunctious eight-week-old puppy to the well-mannered adult she is now took tremendous effort. Just like you, I know first-hand how much time, energy, and care it takes to raise our pets. Rest assured, I will care for your family as I care for mine. I work my main job from home and set my own schedule, so I can fit a wide range of times. Please don’t hesitate to reach out about any scheduling details. One thing worth knowing up front: I never rush a visit. If your dog needs a few extra minutes, those are on me at no extra charge, and I give every client the same courtesy. Because a visit now and then runs long, I keep some flexibility around start times. I always aim for your booked time, but please allow up to 30 minutes on either side. For a 2:00 PM booking, that means I may arrive anytime between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM. Your pet’s safety and well-being always comes first. They’ll have my full attention the whole time we’re together. I’m constantly reading their mood, behavior, and surroundings, so I can catch anything that seems off early and keep them comfortable and happy.

Liz was wonderful! She’s reliable, caring, and genuinely great to work with. Her communication is excellent! She’s responsive, thoughtful, and proactive, which makes everything feel easy and stress-free. I always felt like the girls were in good hands with her. Highly recommend!
Dani is amazing! She was able to jump in at the last minute and walk our senior foster dog Ivy for ten days, twice a day, while my partner was out of town. She was super careful with our pup in the Houston daytime summer heat, and worked with Ivy on good leash manners — she was a different dog by the end of Dani’s time with her! Dani was punctual, communicative, knowledgeable and clearly cared SO much about her families and her wards. I know our sweet girl was in the best possible hands with Dani and I will hire her again in a heartbeat. If you get Dani, you are extremely lucky!! She is the best!!! 💖💖

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gari was truly the most phenomenal dog walker I could have ever asked for! From start to finish, they went above and beyond in every possible way. They were always timely, reliable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. Gari left detailed notes and updates that gave me so much peace of mind and made it clear just how much care and attention they gave to my dog. You can genuinely tell that Gari loves what they do and truly cares about the animals in their care. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail were unmatched. I honestly cannot say enough great things about my experience — Gari is hands down one of the best dog walkers I have ever had! If you’re looking for someone dependable, attentive, caring, and willing to go the extra mile, I cannot recommend Gari enough. My experience was absolutely amazing, and I would trust them with my dog again without hesitation. Thank you, Gari, for being so incredible!

Patricia has been an incredible walker for my high-energy pup, Kobe. She communicates clearly and consistently, and she’s always willing to adjust to my schedule when things shift around. During this brutal heat, she makes a point of keeping Kobe hydrated and well cared for on every walk. I also love that she mixes up his routes instead of doing the same loop every day. It keeps him engaged and burns off all that energy. I trust her completely with Kobe and highly recommend her.
