“Needed someone to walk my fur baby urgently & Kayla was absolutely perfect. She responded quickly, communicating was effortless & Kane loved her! He can’t wait to see you again! Thanks again!”

“Alana is an ABSOLUTE GEM! She shows up, on time, every time and communicates extremely well. We, unfortunately, moved far away and won’t be able to use her services and we are deeply saddened by this. She was, by far, the best experience for our fur babies and will be missed!”

About: Hi! My name is Michelle and I’ve been in the Houston area for almost 5 years! I’ve always been an animal lover which is why I’m an occasional fosters with a nearby shelter. I love all animals and would like to help anyone who may not have enough time in their day to care for their fellow companion. (**Please note that I also accept cats for check-ins as well as boardings) In the past I’ve walked dogs for friends as well as neighbors so I’m very comfortable/familiar with working with pets ranging from different sizes. Just know when you leave your pet in my care I can assure you that they will have a great time and I will always go above and beyond to make sure your companion is getting the upmost care. Many would describe me as optimistic, patient, and friendly who thrives to work hard and have all my goals met- which is exactly what I aim to do for your furbaby! I have my own transportation and I’m available any time on the weekends. I work mostly remote so your furry companion will always have me around most hours of the day! However, if you’re someone need drop-ins please feel free to reach out and we can discuss more in regards to specific days/times, thanks for taking the time to read and hope to hear from y’all soon! I work mostly remote for a position out in the medical center so occasionally I go in, however I live in the heights area so I can be available at either locations! Being in the area has offered me many trails that I would love to take your pups out on, especially if they need to get their energy out. Usually during the weekdays I’m available all day for any services that you may need, however I can do drop ins in the med center anytime from 12-2pm. I’m also fully available on the weekends for all your needs such as drop-ins, pet sitting, and dog walking! *I’m also available to assist with pet transportation (ie: needing to pick up (or take) your pet to/from the groomers, vet, daycare, etc) I will treat your fur baby/ies as my own, meaning that I will follow any directions you provide and will ensure that they are well taken care while you’re away.
“Allison is such a blessing to me and my little dog! She is trustworthy and responsive. I have peace of mind when I’m at work knowing my dog is being walked and cared for by Alison.”

“Makenzie was so incredible with our golden retriever Goose. She was very easygoing, flexible, and communicative, and he would have the BIGGEST smile in all the photos she sent us. We had no doubt in our minds that he was in good hands. Would absolutely book her again in the future and would HIGHLY recommend her!!!”

About: I grew up around dogs and have always been the person friends and family trusted to take care of theirs, whether that meant walks, feeding, or just keeping them company. Experiencing all kinds of breeds and the unique personality each dog has sharpened my ability to read animal body language and pick up on the small signals that show how they’re feeling. I pay close attention to those cues so I can make sure every pet I’m with feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy on their walk. I picked up dog walking as a flexible side gig while studying for the bar exam because it fits my schedule while letting me do something I enjoy. I am currently studying for the bar exam so my schedule is flexible! I am available from 7 am - 7pm Monday - Fridays. DM for weekend availability. I take a proactive approach on every walk, closely watching each dog’s body language to adjust pace, direction, and breaks so they stay comfortable and happy. I also stay alert to the surroundings; traffic, other animals, and environmental conditions, to keep every walk safe and controlled. My focus is balancing the dog’s needs with constant awareness of their environment for a smooth, secure walk.
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog lover for over 27 years, starting with my first pup, Mystic, a Chow Mix/German Shepherd. Since then, I’ve raised and cared for multiple dogs, including Paco (Husky mix), Kiko, Lisha, Marley, and their mom, Sasha. From playful puppies to loving seniors, I’ve experienced it all and know how to handle a variety of needs with care and patience. Dogs bring so much joy, and I can’t wait to give yours the same love and attention! I'm an early riser thanks to my dog Cloud and I currently work from home from 10:30am-7pm CST so I have lots of time in the morning for playtime, walks, cuddles etc. Since I work from home, I will always have an eye out for your dog and have a very flexible schedule! My dog loves to cuddle with me while I'm working sometimes and I would be happy to cuddle with your pup as well! I have several breaks in between my shift including a 30min lunch so I can take your pup out for plenty of potty breaks & outdoor sniffs! I am a homebody during the week but love to go to Buffalo Bayou Park on the weekends since its around the corner from my apartment. My apartment is very centrally located, im about 3 miles from downtown, 4 miles from The Museum District etc so you can also leave your dog with me while you are visiting Houston! *** For drop in visits during the weekday, I am available anytime before 10:30am and anytime after 7pm. On the weekends I am available anytime. Although I live in an apartment complex, I do have a small outdoor patio that opens up to a lush courtyard where dogs can sniff or potty. There is also a small, fenced outdoor dog park inside my apartment complex. Bayou Buffalo Park is also around the corner from my apartment. The emergency vet hospital (VEG) is less than half a mile from my apartment and I am experienced with the dog heimlich maneuver. I have also "doggie proofed" my apartment and have created a safe haven for my rescue dog Cloud. I have multiple dog beds lying around my apartment and a crate full of dog toys so boredom is never an issue! I also have cool dog puzzles that help stimulate your dogs brain! My dog is allowed on the furniture and also on the bed because life is short, why not :) But if you prefer they not be on the furniture, just let me know! I try to care for your dog just like you care for them so that there is a continuity of care. Please give me as many details about the care of your pup as possible such as specific feeding times, the number of treats they're allowed etc. Sometimes, dogs may need their own space depending on their personality, which I can easily create using baby gates if needed to create a divider. I have a LOT of space in my apartment for your dog to roam since I do not like clutter so I converted my dining room area into my dog's own personal man cave lol theres toys, and a huge area to lounge.
“Genevieve is such a sweet and caring person. I was looking for a new regular dog walker and she communicated very well. My dog took to her immediately and I can tell from the photos that he’s a big fan of hers. I’m excited to see how their relationship progresses!”

“We have used Darius twice with our dog Lyanna. He does very well with our big girl who just loves to pull on walks. He is also very prompt and communicates well! We will continue to use Darius!”

“Jacquelyn is amazing - George ran right to her when we first met and it’s been love ever since!! She’s been so lovely and so flexible when our work schedules and trips changes, and I trust her fully with our fur baby!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dog (also rodents) since I was 10 years old. Anyone that knows me always knew who to call if they had a sick pet or if they needed some one to find a safe home/rescue lost pets. I am currently a full time artist that works from home so I’m pretty much available full time for any pet care and other responsibilities. I have a gated small cozy apartment with direct access to white oak trails and front grass area apartment of the property I stay at.
“Alexis is fabulous. I hit her with multiple messages and a ton of anxiety about my boys first Rover experience and she was great! She sent many videos and an update of my guy. He clearly had a fun time! She was punctual and followed my many instructions. Highly recommend and will use again!”

“Annie did a great job with Buddy. Buddy is still a puppy learning leash manners, and she handled him calmly and confidently. I appreciated her flexibility, and professionalism, especially in keeping things consistent for Buddy.”

I couldn't be happier with the care Peanut received from Chloe! From the very first meeting, she bonded with Peanut immediately, which put my mind right at ease. Her communication is top-notch; I received timely updates and felt completely informed throughout the entire process. Peanut clearly got a fantastic workout and came home happy and well-exercised. If you’re looking for someone reliable who truly connects with animals, I highly recommend her!
Shannon deserves more than 5 stars!!! I HIGHLY recommend her. She made my Australia Shepherd Willow so happy with playtime and walks filled with lots of care and attention. Seeing the photos Shannon shared warmed my heart knowing she was getting all the attention and care that a family member would give. Shannon will be the first person I reach out to moving forward. She's the best!

Kiara has been amazing with our puppy, Laila. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly very experienced with dogs. She goes beyond just walking and feeding. She has been helping with training and reinforcing good habits, and we have already seen a big difference in Laila’s behavior. What we appreciate most is how thoughtful and proactive she is. She pays attention, makes helpful suggestions, and genuinely cares. I would absolutely recommend Kiara to anyone looking for someone dependable and truly invested in the dogs she works with.
