About: I have had many pets over the years, both cats and dogs, and fully understand the level of attention and love they require. I will be sure to care for your pets just as I would my own! I can walk dogs well, and can follow special instructions if necessary! I also am able to give your animals the appropriate medications if needed. I have lots of animals back home of various sizes. At my dads we have a German Shepard and Chocolate Lab, and a cat. At my moms we have a larger dog, unsure of breed, a chihuahua, and a terrier. I have experience with all types of breeds and sizes, so there will be no problems no matter the type of dog you have!
“Bailee was so wonderful with my girls! She met up with us a day prior to ensure my dogs would feel comfortable hanging out with her the next day, she was so reliable and sweet and I felt so safe and comfortable trusting her with my girls. I can’t wait for them to hang out again!”

About: I have had a cat since I was 10 and A dog since 12. I have experience with my cat giving birth to kittens and raising them. I also have adopted a cat who was FIV +. My first word as a kid was dog lol and I absolutely adore all dogs. I am active and live walking/ running almost as much as the athletic dogs but I am also always down to chill with a senior dog or little dog who needs a different kind of attention to feel loved. I have taken care of several senior dogs with arthritis or blindness and understand the importance of intentional care. I would love to help make your furry friends feel loved while you’re away. I work part time at night so I am free all day and nights when Im not working. Taking care of your pet is my priority I’m happy to care for pets in their home, whether that means stopping by for playtime, feeding, walks, or simply giving them some company while you’re away. I also offer walks and fun outings to help keep pets active and happy! I’m not currently offering overnight stays, but I’m happy to provide dependable daytime care. I also have a friendly cat of my own and would be happy to host a cat in my home if they are comfortable and friendly around other cats. 🐾🤍
“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!”
“Alexis is the best! She’s built a beautiful bond with my dog where I know he’ll have the best care when I’m out of town. She’s an excellent communicator, and provides care with thoughtfulness and intention. Couldn’t ask for better. My go-to!”

“Alejandra has been walking my fur baby for a few weeks now and she is absolutely wonderful. Very respectful and timely response if you need to reach out, she is also accommodating to my schedule. I will continue to use her services and highly recommend!”


“Chole is the BEST! She is always on time, she always sends over a bunch of pictures and will let me know of anything that happens during her walk good and bad! She is a vet tech so she is very knowledgeable on many things! Taught me how to spot a heat stroke and what do do if it gets to that. She is also suuuuper sweet with Hank! I would 100% recommend her and that is why I have her booked each week!”

“I am so thrilled I was able to connect with Natalie to walk our Yorkie Bichon. She was on time, happy to take input about Gilly and her routine. She kept me updated on the walk and returned at the time I asked her to. Gilly loved her and it’s clear Natalie really cares about animals. I know she cares for cats as well and I’m looking forward to using her regularly. I recommend her wholeheartedly.”

“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!”

“Kendall is very responsive and reliable. She's a "dog person" which was immediately obvious from the moment she met Remington! Now, Remington enjoys his walks with her, and we appreciate the periodic photos!”

“Ynes was amazing! On her first visit with our dog, Biscuit, she was so kind, patient, and attentive. She is definitely the person you trust with your fur baby. We can’t wait to book Ynes again!”

“Dani was very professional and a wonderful calm presence at my wedding where she helped coordinate dog walking down the aisle. Dani also handled all the dog care the night of and day after which was done so well. Thank you!!”

“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.”

“Karen is a life saver! Super flexible with changing schedules and always on-time! Bailey loves her walks with Karen and I love knowing my puppy is in amazing hands while I am at work! 10/10 recommending her anytime a friend needs a walker/sitter!”


About: Hi everyone, I’m Diana and live in the Heights. I’ve been fostering dogs with local Houston-area rescue organizations since 2022. Over the years, I've had the privilege of helping 14 dogs transition into their furever homes, gaining experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and care needs.. In 2025, I was fortunate to adopt the perfect pup—Forrest who truly made my house feel like home. Also my virtual office intern. He is an older dog, and comfortable around other dogs, cats and children. I look forward to treating your pet like part of the family while they're in my care. 🐾 Feel free to reach out for any additional questions or requests to make you and your pet feel comfortable. I work as an engineer with a hybrid schedule, which allows me to spend a significant amount of time at home. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I live in a townhouse within a gated community that features an enclosed dog park just a short walk away, providing a safe and convenient space for exercise and play.
“This was my first time using Rover. Chelsea was great. She sent updates and pics after every walk. Made going on vacation more relaxing knowing Chelsea was exercising the dogs.”

About: I grew up with three family dogs, Oso, Manchas, and Spike. I was involved in raising Manchas and Spike, cared for, and helped with end of life care for all three. I've walked everything from small doggies to a 90 lb Labrador Retriever, so I'm comfortable with a range of sizes and energy levels. I've also spent time around dogs who are selective with other dogs or guard food and toys, so I know how to stay alert and keep everyone safe. I work for a disaster recovery non-profit that is 90% WFH. Aside from a couple of set meetings, my schedule is often pretty flexible, nights and weekends included. I take my cues from the pet in front of me. I’m patient and can adapt to their moods. I’m good at respecting their boundaries as well as the parent’s boundaries.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in River Oaks is $20

I had such a great experience with her! She was reliable, always on time, and took such good care of Venus. She kept me updated, sent me pictures, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Venus was in good hands while I was away. She was very sweet, responsible, and professional. I’m extremely happy with her service and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their dog. I’ll definitely book with her again! ❤️

Ana did AMAZING with my 10 year old lab. He’s reactive and can be overwhelming when you first meet him, but she took her time to allow him to feel her out and the rest of his walks went smoothly. She walked him 3x a day while I was out of town and was always prompt and on time every walk. Ana went above and beyond making sure he was set once she brought him back and she was very quick responsive when reaching out. I will be using her again & you should too! 10/10 service for sure.

We had such a wonderful experience with Dani! It was such a relief to find someone who is not only reliable, but also clearly very experienced and comfortable working with dogs. Our dog, Luna, can sometimes be aggressive and requires someone who is confident and knowledgeable with her. Dani took the time to meet us and Luna beforehand, which immediately gave me so much peace of mind. While we were away, her communication and updates were fantastic and incredibly reassuring. I never had to worry about how Luna was doing because I knew she was in capable hands. We’re so grateful to have found Dani and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
We have booked with Aranza several times now, and she has been amazing! She has been helpful with our last-minute requests and was happy to accommodate us. She follows our instructions accurately, while also using great judgment and improvising when our dogs need a little extra care. She is friendly, reliable, and communicates consistently throughout the booking. We always feel comfortable knowing our dogs are in her hands and would be happy to book with her again!
