“This was my first boarding of my 3 small dogs (2 Yorkies & a Chihuahua) who are all under 7 1\2 lbs. I boarded them for two days and two nights with Janie. When dropping them off they were a little hesitant. Throughout the day Janie texted pictures of how they were doing. Eventually the doggies were cuddling with Janie and they looked very relaxed. I am very happy with Janie's services. I will definitely use her again in the future!”

It was such a relief they were so flexible and accommodating - grateful to have booked them.”

Jacob even helped us out when our latest trip was late by a whole day. Can’t recommend Jacob enough!!!”

“Thanks so much for watching Biscuit while we were on vacation! I appreciated the pictures and updates. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying that about her safety or comfort.

Biscuit is happy and healthy and I will definitely book with Daniel again!”

Debra's detail oriented, and made sure any/all instructions were followed to the letter. She sent thoughtful daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Sascha is normally very skittish and tends to hide from new people, but Debra was so patient and wonderful with her that Sascha started coming out after just a day or two. It was clear that Sascha felt comfortable and safe with her. I’m very grateful for the care Debra provided and will absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive sitter!”
“Jessica is a fantastic cat sitter! My kitter was well taken care of and Jessica knew exactly how to breach the new relationship. She did a great job giving Olivia her meds and monitoring her stool.

About: I grew up on a ranch and have been caring for animals since I was about 12 years old, including cats, dogs, horses, pigs, cows, chickens, and more. Cats have always been a big part of my life, and I currently care for three of my own. Each of my cats has their own personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and routine, so I’m very comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure your cat’s normal routine stays consistent while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, brushing, playtime, basic medications, and giving cats attention on their terms. I also understand that some cats are social while others need more space, so I’m patient and let each cat set the pace.
“What a WONDERFUL human Arturo is! He sent lots of pictures, was so kind, and made us feel comfortable leaving our precious fur monsters in his care. Arturo is a gift for anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Anders was polite, professional and reliable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He was quick at responding and easy to contact, and took excellent care of my cat Benny while we were away. Benny is a grumpy boy and gets sad when we leave, he often hid under the bed but Anders made sure to locate him and talk to him to keep him company which I thought was very sweet.”
“Cassidy was so amazing and caring to our senior cat Mark while we were on vacation. She left wonderful updates and photos. You can tell that she loves pets and caring for them We trust Cassidy to look after Mark next time we are away. 100% recommend! :)”

“Janie did a wonderful job taking care of my puppy, I can see that he got plenty of play time and was exhausted when we returned home and feel asleep instantly. Thank you very much!”
“Kristen was incredibly communicative from the very beginning. She took the time to do a meet & greet the day before so Preta could get to know her and her family and have a chance to sniff around and become familiar with their home. On the day she watched Preta, she was very attentive, especially when my little girl was feeling anxious, and she shared photos and updates to reassure me that she was doing well. I truly appreciate Kristen’s care, patience, and willingness to follow all of my instructions. She was very thoughtful and attentive throughout the entire experience. I would absolutely trust Kristen with my baby again in the future. ❤️”

About: Pets and owners love my free loving and exceptional care I provide to every animal that I care for, whether it's a drop in, walk, or boarding, I'm dedicated to your pet's welfare and happiness. I reside in a beautiful apartment, but am able to host small to large dogs, take them on walks, and take them on adventures to the play area across the street, I’m also conveniently located near the Buffalo bayou dog park! I have more than 30 years of experience caring for dog, cats, and exotic animals. I also have experience in providing care for senior and special needs pets. My availability is flexible and I can usually work around times that are best to accommodate your busy life schedule, if something is to come up and plans change; I am more than happy to work with you on a refund or extended stays. Being a pet parent myself, taking care of pets naturally fit into my schedule especially since I work from home. Unless your pet requires their food at specific times, they will follow the same schedule feeding and care (which is always in plenty) with my own pet. I have no problem crating your animal if there are used to having their own safe space. I also have a wonderfully sunny balcony that they are welcomed to hang out on under supervision. If spending the night, they are welcome to sleep in the room so they aren’t lonely!
“Yujie is an incredibly responsible dog sitter. He made sure to take time to meet Monty beforehand, which helped us confirm they were a great fit and left us with a good feeling. During the visit, he took wonderful care of Monty and sent us pictures throughout the day! Monty clearly loved being with him and is eager to visit again soon.”
“Dianelis was great with my dog. She sent multiple photos and videos. She took him on a walk and he had a great time playing with her dog. She was great at communicating and I would definitely book with her again!”
“I booked a day care service with Benita so her and my dog can get to know each other. The day went very good and Benita sent me a few pictures of my dog while relaxing at her house. I have an older dog that has arthritis issues in hind legs so this visit was also to see if Benita can assist my dog up/down a few steps outside using a support sling.”
“This was our first stay using this app and Valda was amazing. Before I booked with her she was open to meet and was great with her communication and response time. My pup and hers seemed to get along at first meet so it made me more comfortable. She made sure to ask all the right questions about my pups schedule and feeding. She sent pictures and kept in touch the entire time! I 100% recommend her and will be using her the next time we need anything!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. My friends and family leave their animals with me when they go on long vacations. It’s always such a joy to have extra cuddles in my home. I currently am not working as I’m going to school for my Masters. I am at home everyday so this gives me time to give your pet all the love. I care for pets taking into considerations all needs. I will do everything I can to ensure your pet is comfortable during their stay. We know how it feels to leave your baby with a literal stranger.
“My sweet puppy has awful separation anxiety, she howls and cries for hours if I leave the house or leave her with my Mother-in-law- so I was pretty worried about her behavior when I needed to find a sitter for her. I was so surprised when Star told me how well she did! Pictures throughout the day confirm how happy and relaxed my dog is when she's in Star's care. Star's home environment is clean and calm, with sweet doggies of her own. It has room for both pets who need their own space, and for those who do better with a friendly dog or human nearby. I'm so happy I found such a great sitter for my pup :)”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs, and caring for them truly feels natural to me. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I genuinely love spending time with pets, whether we’re going on walks, playing, or simply relaxing together and enjoying each other’s company. Being around animals brings me so much joy. My husband and I both work from home and take care of pets together. We absolutely adore animals, so there is always someone present throughout the day to provide supervision, attention, and companionship. We dedicate plenty of time to exercise, play, and affection, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. We provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. We carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and routines provided by owners. Pets are always supervised and never left alone for long periods. Our goal is to make them feel relaxed, loved, and at home.
About: I am CVA certified, I worked as a vet tech and kennel tech, and have lived with many different animals my whole life.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from German shepherds to yorkies since I was 8 years old! Whether it was my neighbor’s, grandmother’s or my own, I’ve always had such love for furry babies. I’m currently working a flexible hybrid job, that allows me to take my dog, Ralph on many walks every day and stay home with him! I’m open to sharing that time to help out other pet parents who aren’t available to do the same. Although I live in an apartment, we live in a beautiful grassy area near University Boulevard with a dog park onsite.

About: I grew up on a ranch and have been caring for animals since I was about 12 years old. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, pigs, horses, cows, chickens, and even the occasional turkey. Dogs have always been a particularly big part of my life. My grandmother showed dogs competitively, and I spent years helping her care for and prepare them for dog shows. Because of that, I have extensive experience with bathing, grooming, walking, basic training, feeding, and general day-to-day dog care. I’m very comfortable working with animals of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Growing up around so many animals taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention to their individual needs are. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, some extra attention, or just someone dependable to keep them company, they’ll be cared for like one of my own. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible during both the week and weekends. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home. During the week, I can stay at your house or apartment while caring for your pet as long as I have access to Wi-Fi so I can work remotely. On weekends, my schedule is completely open, so I can spend plenty of time keeping your pet company and following their normal routine. I’m very comfortable following detailed care instructions and keeping pets on their normal routine. I currently care for three cats, and each of them has their own feeding schedule, preferences, and daily routine, so I understand how important consistency can be. When caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any other specific needs they may have. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety concerns are checked carefully so your dog stays safe and comfortable while you’re away.

I work from home, and have a very open and flexible schedule! I am available for drop ins, walks, play and boarding! My goal is to help you as best as possible! I have a large fenced yard, and 3 furry friends to play. If your pup prefers privacy, I have plenty of space and rooms they can hide in, and keep them separate!
“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with Baxter! It warmed my heart to see all of their pictures together and the adventure they took on their walk. I would absolutely book with Jessica again and recommend that you do too! :)”

About: Hi, I'm Winter 👋 As the designated petsitter for my farmer-filled neighborhood over the last 20 years, and running my own beekeeping business for the last 6, I love creatures of all kinds. I've got decades of experience caring for household pets! Having a responsible sitter is so important to me when life gets in the way and I can't be with my own pets. I would love to pass my experience on to your furry (or otherwise!) loved ones and offer that peace of mind. Full time petsitter, available evenings, weekends, holidays. Whenever you've got that date night planned or kid's sports practice. Reach out I'd love to meet you pets! I believe in letting the pet guide the interaction to ease stress and continue their normal routine. I also try to be very respectful of others homes. I know letting a stranger come help is stressful on pets as well as owners.

I normally will either go out or bring food for lunch at your home. I also will take an extended break during dinner time between 3-4 hours, before spending the rest of the night with your pet. If that time frame is too long, please let me know and we can discuss how to accommodate you and your pets needs.
