Pet Sitting River Oaks

About: I connect best with cats and have years of hands-on experience caring for them at every life stage. I’m especially comfortable with seniors — my own sweet cat passed recently, and supporting him has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and incredibly gentle. If your older kitty needs slow movements, soft routines, or extra emotional care, I understand that deeply. I’ve also cared for dogs and am happy to help with pups who need calm companionship, reliable check-ins, or a steady routine. No matter the pet, I focus on creating a peaceful, loving environment where they feel safe and understood. I work full‑time Monday–Friday, but I’m available for lunch visits when possible. I am most available before and after work since I work full-time in the office. When I’m caring for pets — whether in my home or my client’s — I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and understood. I move at their pace, keep routines consistent, and pay close attention to the little things that help them relax. For cats, especially seniors, I’m extra gentle and patient. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, eating habits, and energy levels, and I make sure they get plenty of quiet companionship. With dogs, I bring the same warm, steady energy. I stick to their usual schedule, offer lots of reassurance, and make sure they get the right balance of play, walks, and downtime. I’m great with pups who appreciate a calm presence and predictable routine. No matter the home, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own little family — with kindness, patience, and genuine affection.

“Excellent communication and reliable care! Second time with Natalie, and it’s such a relief to leave my kitties in good hands. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Bianca was great! She was responsible and flexible to my needs. She sent updates of the visits and communicated well. I will be using her again for future drop ins!”

“Carolina was amazing with our cat, Pinky! This was our first time being away from our cat and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit anxious. Carolina made the process so easy by explaining how everything worked and being incredibly accommodating with our travel changes. ​ Pinky is a little bit shy, but she immediately liked Carolina at the meet & greet. And during our trip, the photos Carolina sent gave us so much peace of mind. We can tell that Pinky was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. Carolina has always answered to any questions and concerns right away, and made sure that Pinky had a clean litterbox, dry and wet food, and plenty of playtime during the drop-in visits.”

“Alejandra was absolutely amazing! I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such great hands while I was away. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and treated him like her own, which meant so much to me. I came home to a happy, well-loved pup! I would 100% trust Alejandra to watch him again and cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Alejandra! 🤍”

“Julia is simply lovely! It’s clear that she loves dogs which was definitely noticed by both my pups. She also communicates very well which I appreciate! Highly recommend.”

Emily J.

“This was such a great process and caretaker. Ynes provided photos, came at the scheduled times, and did sweet things outside of the standard, such as asking for a jacket for my chihuahua because it was raining. Highly recommend.”

Jenna W.

“She took such good care of Xavi and really helped ease my worries while I was at work. She’s attentive, responsible, highly communicative and super kind! I’m so lucky to have landed on such a great sitter!”

“From the first meeting, my 2 cats were confident and friendly towards Tony-he is incredibly approachable, professional, and I am grateful for him!”

Katharine N.

“Juliana was absolutely incredible! From the start, she put me completely at ease, and I felt 100% confident leaving my pup in her care. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter and feel so lucky to have found her. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

Anna C.

“My puppies were very happy with a no-kennel stay-at-home option and Dani kept us very informed with all the check-ins and photos of dog walks and 1-hour visits. Two VERY happy fur-babies!”

Kathy C.

“Courtney sent tons of pictures and spent quality time with our girls — playing, treats, freshened the litter box, food and water. I felt super comfortable out of town, knowing she was stopping by and keeping us connected. Both our shy kitty and our social butterfly were happy, fed and comfortable ☺️ We’ll certainly book with Courtney again!”

Meghan S.

“⸻ This was the second time Darius watched my dog Sevyn, and just like before, he did an amazing job! He takes such good care of her and treats her like his own. Sevyn came back happy, calm, and well taken care of. I really appreciate the updates and how attentive he is to her needs. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in great hands while I’m away. Highly recommend Darius I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“Mateo is kind, a fast and detailed responder, cleans up & listens to my requests. Based off my prior experience with rover, he exceeded my expectations. My kids were very well taken care of. Would recommend him for any pet parent!”

Laura N.

“Ms. Heather was such a delight! She came through in a crunch time of mine. She’s super sweet and very responsive. She took GREAT care of my fur baby. My little Amirah loves her! She was so supportive and detail oriented when it came to my dog. I definitely recommend her and I will be using her in the future!”

“Abigail did a fantastic job. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She followed all instructions and took extra precautions for Tuna who has some issues eating/getting into things. She took such great photos of Tuna and gave me plenty of updates. I was really impressed with how well she was able to connect to Tuna. She’s normally a little shy but seemed to warm up super fast to Abigail. Abigail also was able to read Tuna and know what she wanted! Will definitely be booking. Abigail again!!!!”

Madison M.

“An absolute gem! Burak agreed to walk my little one last minute and made the experience incredibly easy. He is super responsive, kind, attentive, and made me feel at ease as I was flying while the check in was happening. 10000000000000/10!!”
