About: Genuine love for pets. I naturally care for their well-being and love the affection I get from all animals. My family and I have 5 dogs of our own and recently we were adopted by our newly stray cat, Carey. We have been fostering dogs since Thanksgiving of 2017 and we have learned a lot how all pets deserve second chances and how each one of them heals at their own time. My dog walks are tailored to your pet needs, I will focus on the safety of your pet and myself during my service. You can trust that your pet will always be in loving and caring hands. Dog walking would be my primary activity next to my English classes. I will work with you to make sure that your pets needs are met in a timely manner. At home we have a fenced backyard and at my customers' homes I make sure that safety is a priority during my service. That means that I would make sure that your pet is properly secured and that is happy while we are together.

She was super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and I could tell she truly cared about making sure Archie was happy and comfortable.

I’m definitely coming back to them as soon as I need it. 100% recommended !”

“Olivia took such wonderful care of my two cats, Leo and Chloe! She provided thorough updates every day and sent so many adorable pictures, which gave me total peace of mind while we were away. She truly went above and beyond, not only making sure my cats were happy and cared for, but also cleaned up after them and took out the trash. Chloe normally hides from people she doesn’t know, but she quickly warmed up to Olivia. It’s clear that she is kind, thoughtful, and genuinely loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”
“Heaven was phenomenal. She was super punctual both with responding to my messages and in caring for my kitties. She’s super sweet and went out of her way to make sure my babies were comfortable.

This was my first time booking with her and I will do so again in the future! Thank you Heaven 😊”

I’m so grateful for her sending me all the pictures of my kitties during her visits and her communication with me throughout her visits.”
“Joe was reliable and communicative. He is incredibly kind and took great care of my two cats. My kitties were a bit hesitant at first (they’re pretty shy and tend to be a bit skittish around men), but he didn’t push, treated them with patience, and they were happy to greet him by the end of his drop-in week. I enthusiastically recommend him as a pet sitter! It’s so nice to be away and to know my pets are safe.”

“Tommie and Jeff were so responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures. My dog had a blast playing with the other dogs! Will definitely book them again”
“My dog is so attached to her😅. He keeps his eyes on her to catch an opportunity to sleep on her lap. He gets lots of belly rubs and sleeps on laps every time he visits her home. It means he loves her!”
“As a psychiatrist and devoted dog dad to two Nederlandse Kooikerhondjes—a relatively rare breed—finding someone qualified and experienced enough to care for my dogs while I was away at a medical conference was not something I took lightly. My dogs are my absolute world and their unique needs and high energy levels require someone who is truly attentive, active, and dedicated. Mandy exceeded every expectation I had. My pups stayed with her and she maintained their routines flawlessly. She kept up with their high energy demands without missing a beat. The abundance of photos and updates she sent throughout the week were so reassuring—I could clearly see my girls were happy, well exercised, and completely at ease in her care. The long walks she took them on daily were exactly what they needed and I could tell they absolutely loved every minute with her. As someone who professionally understands the importance of trust and reliability, I can say with complete confidence that Mandy embodies both. If you are looking for a sitter who will treat your dogs with the same love and dedication you would, she is simply the best. We will absolutely be booking with Mandy again without hesitation!" — Dr. Khan | Psychiatrist & Proud Dad to Two Nederlandse Kooikerhondjes 🐾❤️”
“I’m a first time dog owner and I was beyond impressed with Chelsie with our 6 month old puppy. She would send pictures and kept us updated. She was even willing to come pick up our puppy instead of us having to meet her at her place once. We will continue to use Chelsie in the future.”
“Burak took the best care of Kai! He was so accommodating to our schedule and made this trip super easy! Can’t wait to be back in Houston and see him again! Thank you Burak!”
“Darius was a god sent. I was visiting Houston from Dallas with my husband and puppy. I stayed at a dog friendly hotel but even going for breakfast made my puppy very anxious alone in the room we decided to use over for the first time and I urgently contacted Darius. He was very prompt to respond and accommodated everything. He was very vigilant for for example I feed my dog fresh food, which I forgot to tell him, but he had already put the food in the fridge. He has a very sweet and loving puppy, and I could visibly see mylo happy. If I ever returned to Houston, Darius is my guy. Milo has never been around strangers, but he was extremely comfortable with Darius. He also sent updates every so often and was prompted to answer anything I asked. I don’t think twice.”
“Jennifer was awesome! Took great care of our two dogs, kept us updated, and made everything super easy. She took a lot of cute pics of my furry babies. I Will definitely book again.”
About: Do you want to be absolutely worry free when it comes to your pets being well cared for while you are on a business trip or vacation? As your pet sitter I see my job as two parts. 1. Care for you pet(s), 2. Communicating with you such that you are worry free. I LOVE PETS and just so happen to be a Massage Therapist and Reiki Master so your babies get extra great pets, love and attention from a Healer! The majority of my private clients thus far are people who have more than one pet and economically boarding them is very expensive and/or they straight up don't like the idea of boarding their pets. (I have private clients that I am happy to provide as references for anyone who is serious about hiring me.) I'm self employed and semi retired so I have some flexibility to work with the right match! I love regular clients on my schedule but also available for one off's when my calander will allow... I pet sit based on having pets and raising children of my own. I have a high level of awareness to your animals needs and am always happy to make sure your home is secure and taken care of. It is never to much to request I bring in mail or packages or handle small things that may come up for you.
“Needed a last minute sitter for the day and Chant was gracious enough to take both my dogs. One was a senior dog who needed extra bathroom breaks and the other had higher energy who's usually skittish of new environments. Chant made sure both dogs adjusted and were well taken care of. Despite my dog's protests, she even jumped hoops to make sure one of them took their medication. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica was great! She clearly loves animals and my pup bonded with her. It is always hard to leave a pup with someone new, but Jessica was very thoughtful in introducing my Bonni to her pets, and she held Bonni to give her comfort at drop off and kept me updated with pictures. I will not hesitate to drop Bonni off with her again.”
“Brooke is incredibly nice and quick in her communication. Really appreciated that she was able to work with us last minute and sent us pics of our dog happily hanging out at her home. Will definitely be using her services again!”

“Nandini is great! She is super helpful, communicative, and available even with last-minute requests. More importantly, my pup loves her! I would recommend her any day!!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from farm animals and barn cats to household pets. I’m trusted by family and friends to pet sit dogs, cats, and birds, and I focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and consistent with their routines. I also have experience as a veterinary assistant/technician, with skills in animal handling, basic medical care, and recognizing signs of illness—so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, attentive hands. I just moved across the country, and I am fully free to take care of your pets until I find a job in the veterinary care industry. I have excellent time management skills, and I am willing to work with your pet's schedules and needs and adjust my own plans as needed. I am willing to adapt to you and your pet's routine and needs to keep them happy and relaxed during the duration of the sitting.
“Cristina was very accommodating and flexible with a quick change of plan. She provided great updates and was timely. Would highly recommend in book in the future.”
“This was the first time I left my dog Bella with someone outside my home, and I couldn't be happier with how it went. From the start, the sitter was kind, attentive, and professional. She took the time to get to know Bella, respected her routines, and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Bella returned home calm, happy, and, without a doubt, very well cared for. It was clear she'd been in a safe and loving environment. Emma made the experience natural and stress-free. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Bella! 🐶❤️”
“Kendall was so great! Perfect with Shorty, great on checking in, flexible when either of our schedules needed some changes. I would recommend her for any and all dog walk needs, especially in South Philly! Yay Kendall!”
“Bailee was kind enough to stop by and meet Cooper before her first official walk! She took the time to navigate the building and to learn about Cooper’s quirks and needs. We are so excited to book with her and I’m relieved to know he’ll be in good hands!”
“Quick response and great with my dog! With a fussy baby having Yuriko being able to walk my dog so last minute was a life saver. Very nice and prompt my dog enjoyed her walk. Would definitely book again!”

“We had our first pet-parent meeting last week and I couldn't be happier. Jasnah's progress is amazing and I can't wait to continue with Dani's training program for my puppy.”
About: Proud dog mom to 2 sweet girls, from pushing my chihuahua in a stroller to hiking with my Aussie. I value what pets bring to our lives and I strive to give them the most fulfilling life. Let me help do the same with yours :) I’m working part time at the moment and have a very flexible schedule so my availability to take your fur babies for long walks is quite open! Your pet’s safety will always be my #1 priority. By paying attention to your pet’s body language I will be able to gauge their comfort level and move forward accordingly.
“Anna is great! I trust her with my baby and will even take super late requests. If you cannot be home and need your little one to be taken for a walk, I would pick her over anyone in the area.”
“Thank you Timothy! We hired him last minute for dog-walking our little senior doggo and he was kind enough to take on the task! We were even a little late one day to have her ready for him and he waited on us.”

“Mary stayed overnight at our home with our pup for two nights. She was fantastic with Selina, who can be a little aloof with new sitters. Selina seemed happy when we came home, and obviously was given lots of attention. The home was also in great condition. We can’t wait to book with Mary again!”
“Olivia was great with my new rescue. We are still learning his personality and quirks, and she quickly made friends. She sent me multiple updates and pictures. Most importantly, she was able to troubleshoot on her own. She was quick to respond to my initial message and kindly guided me through my first Rover exchange. No notes. Highly recommend.”
