About: He convivido con perros desde que nací. Me apasionan las razas pequeñas, especialmente los yorkis. trabajé en LA RED DE APOYO CANINO, sin fines de lucro. Tengo disponibilidad de tiempo, para realizar paseos de media hora. Me avisan con un día de anticipación, y con gusto busco al consentido de la casa. Lo primero es conversar sobre las costumbres del peludito, para poder atenderlos como se debe. Comida, medicamento, enfermedades, para estar muy bien informada. Ellos no hablan.💚 Y lo más importante, conocer su carácter. Respetar su manera de recibir afecto. Las mascotas, saben pedir y poner límites. Y no exponerlos a situación que puedan alterarlo o asustarlo. Estar atento todo el tiempo y reportar a su dueño constantemente, sobre su perro. Tratarlos muy bien, para ser personal de confianza y que me vuelvan a contactar, a través de este medio.

About: I've grown up with pets ever since I was a child! My father worked as a rancher and taught me how to care for a variety of different animals! I've owned and cared for different pets for many years. My son helps me watch and care for the pets. We would be happy to provide you and your fur friend service! I'm currently working on writing a book so I'm home for majority of the time. My son also works from home and helps me. We both can provide services to your pet! I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly cats to keep your fur babies company! I have multiple crates and can easily crate and separate different pets!

About: I’ve cared for dogs at every stage of life from fostering 2 week old puppies to supporting my 15-year-old dog with medical needs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with routines, medications, and high energy play. I love having a buddy by my side, so your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while feeling safe and right at home. My schedule is very consistent, I work Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to around 12 PM, so I have my afternoons, evenings, and nights free for pet care. I love being active, so I enjoy spending that time walking, playing, and hanging out with dogs. I’m also an early riser, so morning care before work fits in well too. I try to keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for every dog. In my home, I make sure the space is clean, safe, and relaxed, and I’m always keeping an eye on them whether that’s playtime, walks, or just hanging out. In a client’s home, I’m really respectful of their space and stick closely to whatever routine their dog is used to. I follow instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and send updates so you know your dog is doing well. I just want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for the whole time.

About: I’ve loved working with dogs since I was 12, when I started helping a neighbor with dog walking. Since then, I’ve volunteered at the SPCA and helped with foster dogs, giving me hands-on experience with everything from playful, high-energy pups to shy or nervous dogs that need a gentler approach. I’d say what really sets me apart is my energy and how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I make sure every walk or visit is fun, engaging, and tailored to your dog’s personality—whether that means long active walks, playtime, or just giving them extra comfort and attention. I fit pet care into my daily routine by scheduling consistent time for walks, feeding, and attention while staying flexible for each pet’s needs. I provide in home pet care by sticking closely to each pet’s routine, offering regular walks, feeding, and companionship while keeping them safe and comfortable.

About: Hi! My name is Emi. I grew up in a home full of animals—my dad is a huge animal lover, so we always had dogs and cats in our house. Being surrounded by so many animals is probably why I developed such a deep love for them myself. I have a 5-year-old Samoyed named Noah, and we would absolutely love the chance to meet your baby and become friends 😊 Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions—I’d be happy to connect and will respond as soon as I can! I work Monday through Friday, 9–5, but since my position is fully remote, I have plenty of flexibility to give your baby the attention and care they need throughout the day. I live in an apartment located in a safe, walkable neighborhood, so your baby will get plenty of fresh air and nice strolls. I also have a sweet “little polar bear” of my own — my 5-year-old Samoyed — and we’ll make sure your baby feels loved and well-companioned the entire time 💕

About: I have been the sole caretaker of my own dog, cats, & bunnies for over a decade now! Many friends & family members have always relied on me to care for their furry loved ones as well. I can watch, feed, walk, bathe, and play with your pet. I love animals and would love to take care of yours. I am working a very flexible part time job right now, so I am most always available in the evenings but can also adjust my schedule for mornings or afternoon if that works best for you. Taking care of your pets is such a joy to me! Beyond giving an animal its basic needs like dinner and potty time, I also love to give someone's pet as much attention or space that makes for a comfortable environment for it while their owner is away. I want your pet to feel safe and cared for under my care!

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.

About: I’ve spent years caring for my parents’ two French Bulldogs and our 12-year-old black cat, and I truly treat them like my own. I’m responsible for everything—daily walks, feedings, playtime, and giving them lots of love and attention. I also handle daycare drop-offs, vet visits, and grooming appointments, so I’m comfortable managing all aspects of pet care. I’m especially familiar with the unique needs of Frenchies and senior pets, including recognizing health quirks, keeping them cool and calm, and sticking to their routine. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a chill older cat, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available after 5PM on weekdays and fully open on weekends. I’m happy to accommodate evening walks or weekend care! I care for my pets by keeping them on a consistent routine with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love. I also manage grooming, daycare, and vet visits.

Rosa and Emanuel are absolutely amazing! They are always available, so kind, helpful, and dependable. I’ve continued booking with them because I know I can always count on them to provide excellent service and take great care of Coco. They always keep me updated on Coco, which gives me so much peace of mind, and you can truly tell how loving and caring they are toward her. It means so much to know that Coco is in good hands whenever she’s with them. I couldn’t ask for better people to trust with my fur baby! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving, and attentive pet sitters. Thank you both for always taking such great care of Coco! 🐶💕

Angelica has been such a huge help, and both of our dogs love her! It can be hard to find someone you trust with your pets, but it’s clear that she truly cares about them. She’s always quick to reply and sends great photo updates of the dogs at home and on walks.. Both of our dogs can be a little tricky, but that has never fazed her, she handles them with patience and care. We’re so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her!

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!!! 💖💖
