About: Why Cisco’s Family Chose Me—Again and Again Cisco, a sweet Labrador, stayed with me for the first time during a weekend trip. He was a bit shy at first, but with patience, routine, and plenty of love, he quickly felt at home. Since then, his family doesn’t think twice—they know he’s in trusted, caring hands. On his most recent stay, Cisco was with us for six full weeks, and he blended in like part of the family. What sets me apart? I don’t just watch pets—I build real connections. I treat every dog like my own, keep owners in the loop, and create a space where pets feel truly safe and happy. I work remotely, which means I’m home throughout the day and able to give your pup plenty of attention, care, and play breaks. Whether it’s a walk, belly rub, or just some company while they nap, your dog won’t be short on love or supervision. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor fun, plus beautiful trails nearby for walks. Your dog will also have a built-in buddy—my golden retriever, who’s friendly and loves making new friends!
About: Early morning 3 mile walks in the cool, shaded , Jones Forest, to dog park exercise in the evening, it’s what dogs love most! To get out and PLAY!!!!!! (weather permitting, of coarse! I work weekends, so Monday through Friday I am here, my wife Lu Lu is here on the weekends. Our daughter is 16 and a natural with animals. We have a fenced yard, and 2 friendly playmates, a young Labradoodle who loves to play 24-7. They are family here, they are our family and yours will be treated as such, with any special needs or requests met.
About: Truly passionate about loving and caring for animals, and looking to better spend my free time helping pet owners like you while also getting some quality time with your pup (or kitty). It’s a win-win for everyone!! I’ve loved animals since I was small and since my furbaby is back home and away from me, I am eager to spend time with all the pets I can watch! I don’t have formal training but I do have years of experience with my dogs and my family and friends’ dogs that I have dogsat back home. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend, and if you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to ask! I am new to the area and am currently pretty flexible as I am only working part time, so most days I have some availability. I recently moved to the area and have not brought my dog over from back home with my parents yet, so your pet would have my full attention and comfort in my home. In terms of drop in visits, you can count on me to be professional and follow your instructions and boundaries as necessary.
About: I’m the guy at the party that the dog comes to, which is fine by me - they make for the best small talk.

I can always make time for a pup in need, with a flexible work from home schedule - I can be at your home at all times of the day, seven days a week. With one loving pup at home, a large yard, homemade dog treats, a spa service, and a complimentary wet bar - our home is the perfect getaway for your furry friend.

About: I have been watching over all sorts of fur babies since I was 17, even starting a small independent business in my hometown! I have experience with puppies and senior dogs.

About: I’ve been around pets for as long as I can remember. My white mini schnauzer, Boris, is a rescue who’s been with me for over 10 years—and honestly, he’s more than just a dog. He’s family. Taking care of him taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand animals beyond the basics. On top of that, I’ve helped my mom run her Rover profile for years. Together we’ve fostered dogs, cared for all types of pets, and learned how to make animals feel safe and loved in any situation. Whether it’s an anxious rescue or a hyper pup that needs structure, I’ve seen it all—and I treat every pet with the same care I give Boris. To me, this isn’t just a side gig. It’s a way to give pet owners peace of mind and make sure their furry best friends are genuinely happy while they’re away. Serving Two Areas! I’m based in The Woodlands, TX, but I’m also in Downtown Houston regularly since I attend Bauer Honors College at the University of Houston. Until the end of this month, I’m available in both areas any day of the week. Starting August 25th, I’ll be back in school downtown Monday through Thursday and I’m available in The Woodlands on Fridays, weekends and school breaks. All visits are done at your pet’s home, where they feel safest. I’m really good at reading an animal’s vibe—I let them set the tone. Whether they need space, belly rubs, or just a calm presence, I adjust to what they’re comfortable with. I’m also confident handling crates, giving medication, and caring for shy or high-energy pets. My goal is to always make your pet feel seen, safe, and loved.
About: I have trained my two senior dogs how to sit, walk off leash, speak and crate trained them within 2 months of having them. I am also currently in school to become a Veterinary technician. Im currently working part time and go to school 100% online for Radiology! My husband is a stay at home father who recently retired from the ARMY! We love to take care of fur babies as our own!

About: Hi! I’m Joseph but my family used to affectionately call me Dr. Dolittle. I grew up living the ranch life, always surrounded by animals, big and small. From a young age, I knew I belonged in their world. Whether it was bottle feeding calves or playing with the barn cats, animals have always held a special place in place in my heart: My loved ones say animals just “get me” and I truly believe it’s mutual. I give every pet the big love and attention they deserve, like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently planning to work part time jobs and possible doing full time later! I can absolutely use my free times to focus on the needs and attention of pets. I love doing daily walks, so why not let the dogs join me!! I am very respectful of a client’s home rules and will gladly stay as long as needed.
