“My 2nd stay with Mariah and she is so kind and loving to my babies. Loki was upset when I left him the first time but this time he knew he was safe! Thank you Mariah and Megan for taking such good care of my babies!”

“Luke had a great time! We got lots of pictures and Marranda even made a Mothers Day card out of Luke’s paw prints. It was so cute & extra sweet. Looking forward to our next stay.”

“Kathryn was great! She was quick to respond and always kept us informed with pics, videos, and updates of our pups. I think they felt like they were on vacation too! Lol! She took them for walks and to get treats. They seemed like they really enjoyed themselves and they were well taken care of! Would definitely book with her again in the future!”


“I was so lucky when I booked with Ewere for my Morpheus while we went on a cruise. She provided cute pics for my kids and I to look at and know that he was doing great. I will definitely bring Morpheus back for next vacation! Thank you!”

“Leslie takes great care of our dog. He is very comfortable and happy with Leslie. We can see this in the pictures that Leslie sends and it gives us complete peace of mind while we are away. She is absolutely wonderful.”

“Zoraya always takes wonderful care of my dog and sends me photos throughout her stay. My dog can be nervous and slow to warm up, but she was very excited to go back to Zoraya’s and warms right up to her! I would highly recommend her for your overnight boarding needs.”

About: I go beyond basic pet sitting. I provide intentional, personalized care based on your pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m highly detail-oriented, so I stick closely to feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions you provide. Special skills: • Experience with anxious, shy, or high-energy pets • Strong attention to behavior changes and pet cues • Consistent updates with photos/videos for peace of mind • Comfortable administering basic medications (if needed) • Clean, organized environment to keep pets safe and comfortable One of the biggest benefits of booking with me is that your pet will have constant company. I’m available evenings and most weekends and love dedicating that time to hands-on care, whether that’s extra walks, playtime, or simply giving your pet the attention they deserve. My fiancé works from home during the week, so there’s always someone around to keep your pet comfortable and attended to so no long hours alone. I have a fenced yard and have a fur baby of my own that I walk daily. We live in a safe area. Your pet will love it here!

“Ana was amazing with Toby! She was so sweet and communicated with us the whole time, which really gave us peace of mind. I especially appreciated the videos she sent of Toby running around the yard, it made our day. We’re definitely coming back to her whenever we’re in the Houston area. Highly recommend!”

“Emahn and his wife took great care of my dog, Chief. I received pictures and updates daily. They went the extra mile to give me a “report card” of his stay. I thought that was a great and unique touch of providing boarding/sitting services. I will book again when needed. 10 stars!!!”

“Gracie was amazing. So sweet and very welcoming. She kept us updated every step of the way and sent plenty of picture's and videos just so we can feel comfortable and not so worried cause this was the first time of us ever leaving our dog. But Gracie definitely took the anxiety away. Will definitely be using her again in the future. 😊”

“Angela and Jorge were wonderful! We are always hesitant to be away from Maverick because we care for him so much. They sent us plenty pictures and videos of him throughout his stay which really kept us at ease. They truly loved Maverick like he was their own. We highly recommend them!”

“Kathryn was wonderful with our dog while we were on vacation! Communication was great—she sent daily updates and lots of videos, which we really appreciated. Our dog has some separation anxiety and she was incredibly patient and caring with him. It was clear he was being well looked after. We’d absolutely book with her again.”

“Paola was fantastic with both of my dogs while we were away for the weekend. When we showed up to drop them off she had gone to the store that morning and bought them toys to play with and treats for their stay! That in itself was truly going above and beyond! She sent me multiple pictures of them each day and was always very quick to answer any communication I sent her. I have used rover many times and she’s definitely one of the best!”

“Alexis was an amazing last minute dog sitter after my prior plans with another sitter fell through. Moose was immediately happy to see her and ready to go spend the weekend his weekend away from home. Got daily updates/pics annd always knew he was getting plenty of love/attention. Would recommend 10/10.”

“Shu was amazing with our cat, she took such good care and he really enjoyed the time spent with her. She went way above and beyond, keeping us informed and even checking if he had fleas and applying the treatment. Thank you so much and for sure will come back next time we need a cat sitter!”

“Absolutely amazing!!! My pups love this place and the staff! Pick up and drop off were seamless. They went above and beyond to take care of them for a week long stay by ensuring daily feeding and grooming routines were just as they are at home. We received daily updates and pics to let us know they were doing great which put my mind at ease since this was the first time leaving them with anyone other than family. They were both bathed and smelling great for pick up…. She even trimmed my girls’ nails! We will be going back for boarding and grooming for sure!”

“The value of treatment that my dog received while I was away is exceptional. Erica kept me updated with plenty of photos and daily activities. The environment is perfect and he had no problems getting settled in at all. My dog had so much fun he pretty much was sad when I got him back lol he definitely misses playing with the other dogs. I will definitely be booking with Erica again and I highly recommend you use her services as well.”

“She is hands down one of the best dog sitters I have had. My dog had a bit of a heath crisis and Destinee kept me updated at all times. I love her and so do my boys!! ❤️”
