“Paul was the best dog sitter I've EVER had. He took such amazing care of my pups, updated me frequently, sent pictures and videos, and left my house in perfect condition. I'm SO glad I found him. I was able to go away on a work trip, knowing my dog's were in good hands. Thank you Paul!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Elmer! From the moment we connected, his communication was excellent—he kept me updated regularly with messages, photos, and videos of my cat and dog, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Not only did he take wonderful care of my pets, but he also went above and beyond by looking after my home. When I returned, the house was even better than when I left it—clean, organized, and clearly treated with care. Elmer is truly one of a kind: trustworthy, responsible, and 100% reliable.

“We've used Rover for many years and all of our sitters have been exceptional. Skyler, however, is the best we've ever had. He was professional and conscientious and very friendly.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10, and it’s genuinely something I love. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities — from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra attention. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, administering medications, bathing, crate training, and following special diets or care routines. Family, neighbors, and friends have always trusted me to care for their pets like they’re my own. I’ve had experience with small and large breeds, and I’m very patient, loving, and attentive. Whether your dog needs a slow-paced walk, playtime at the park, or a calm companion while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I take that seriously. You can always count on me to communicate clearly, follow instructions exactly, and keep your pet safe, happy, and loved. I currently have an open and highly flexible schedule, which means I can provide your pets with all the time, care, and attention they deserve! I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-ins throughout the week — including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s last-minute or a recurring need, I’m here to help and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would my own. I always follow instructions carefully and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I’m reliable, clean, and communicative — and I make sure every visit is stress-free for both you and your furry family member.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was about 7 years old, I’ve had big and small dogs, and have been watching my oldest sisters friends and coworkers dogs around Houston for the past 2 years. I’ve worked with dogs from all ages and have taken care of cats on a couple occasions as well! Looking for work in the area, so I have a lot of free time when not applying or interviewing, so I can come in and check on or stay with your pets whenever! I have a fenced in yard and 2 older dogs that are pretty lazy. I follow any itinerary, dietary restrictions, or medications for pets as needed! I’m the past I’ve had to medicate and give special foods to different pets I’ve watched!

“5 Stars for Nelson! Nelson is hands down the best pet sitter out there! I recently had the absolute pleasure of trusting Nelson to care for my pets while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very start, he showed deep concern and thoughtful attention—not just to tasks, but to the emotional and physical well-being of my pets. He kept me consistently updated with sweet photos and messages, took initiative by changing the cat litter without being asked, and played wholeheartedly with the dogs. He even took Missy on multiple walks—completely unprompted—simply because he cared. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. What really blew me away is how Missy, who doesn’t warm up easily to people (especially men), loved Nelson. That’s practically a miracle in itself—and speaks volumes about his gentle energy, patience, and kindness. Nelson gave me genuine peace of mind. His heart, intuition, and respect for my pets’ personalities make him incomparable. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond and truly gets animals, Nelson is the one. Missy already misses him—and honestly, so do I!”


“Jordan was wonderful with our dog, River! He sent us pictures often and left our home spotless. He even vacuumed!! We will be asking Jordan back next time we need care for our fur baby.”


About: Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. Comfortable with senior dogs needing meds and energetic puppies alike. Raised by a zookeeper, I bring calm, capable, and knowledgeable care to every pet I meet. Because I work part-time, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended stays throughout the week, and I love having the time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need. It’s a rewarding part of my daily life that I truly enjoy. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’m a recent Notre Dame grad, and I take pride in being responsible, reliable, and respectful of your home. I always make sure things are clean and tidy, and I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and cute photos!

About: I'm always loved by many animals. I can get well with most pets in a very short time. I love to play with pets, I enjoy every second spent with them. I will follow all care instructions given and I will always be on time for the visits. I'm currently working as part time, and I have control of my working times. I will be available for drop-in after 11am till 9pm daily. I have a 2 story house and I have a friendly cat living mainly on the first floor. I have 3 rooms upstairs available if you prefer to have your fur baby separated. The house is air conditioned at all time and will provide your fur baby a comfortable stay.

Madeleine K.
“I've known Mattie her whole life and she is one of the kindest and most responsible young women I know. She took care of our animals, and we had a lot...3 German Shepherds, 1 cat, three fishtanks and free range chickens. She walked, bathed, played with and loved on all our animals and we knew without a doubt that they were in good hands. For me, what I found unique in Mattie is that she is also observant and knew when our dog wasn't feeling well...it was something we missed and we were grateful. I would recommend her whole-heartedly to anyone looking to have their pets well taken care of while they are away.”
