“I would give Heather 10 stars if it were possible! We’ve boarded our dog on several occasions and it’s always been a tough experience because she doesn’t eat very well and has seemed depressed while we’re gone. Our experience with Heather was the complete opposite; our dog was content and happy the entire time, something we didn’t think was possible while boarding 😅. Heather was very communicative and sent photos and videos of our dog every day while we were away. Her facility is also very clean and well kept, and feels warm and inviting as opposed to the large dog crates we’re accustomed to with other boarders. Heather obviously loves dogs and we were so grateful that she took such good care of our dog while we were gone for 10 days. I can’t recommend her and her services highly enough, this was hand down the BEST boarding experience we and our dog have ever had.”
“Michelle was amazing. It was only the second time that we have boarded our dog and he was so well taken care of. Michelle sent photos and updates twice a day and our boy was relaxed and happy. She has a welcoming home for dogs and a lovely back yard for outside time. We would definitely use again and highly recommend.”
“I recommend Ariel for your boarding care. I am not kidding! She is amazing and a caring person. She is a true a dog lover. my dogs felt at home at her place and they also had a huge backyard for them to enjoy.”
“This was our first time leaving our little dog with someone we didn’t know. Robin was fantastic, we went on a cruise and she sent an update within a couple our on how our little girl was doing along with pictures. And updated us again before we got back really put us at ease. Will definitely use her again, highly recommend.”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Jennifer was great with out pups! She kept us posted daily on how they were doing while in her care -- and they were doing great! They were in good spirits when we went to pick them up and seemed happy and well cared for. We will use Jennifer again!”
“I had such a great experience with my Skylar! She took amazing care of my pup while I was away and made me feel totally at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant so much and helped me relax knowing he was happy and well looked after. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and paid attention to all the little details. I’d absolutely trust her again in a heartbeat — highly recommend!”
“Selena’s stay at Hunter’s was great! Selena enjoyed playing with her two dogs and has come home happy and exhausted! This was our first experience having her stay away with someone we didn’t know ahead of time. We would definitely use her again.”
“Great dog sitter! She kept me updated daily, sent lots of pictures, and took very good care of my dogs. I really appreciated the communication and felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Angelo is a wonderful Pet Sitter (from a human perspective). He is communicative with daily pictures and very responsive to questions. His home, yard, and set up are perfect for pets. He follows all of your requests even when you forget to send the brush. He doesn't take too many pets at once. He doesn't force them into cages. My dog came home happy and tired, which is a good thing because she was active. I only wish pets could speak and tell us about their experience! Angelo sends a sweet note and homemade treats home with the dog too! I will definitely go back to Angelo.”
“Great experience! The whole family gets involved and my youngest dog is huge on attention so it was a great fit for him. And my older dog likes quiet and solitude which their house offered as well. Everybody was happy! Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs loved staying with Sarah! Our boxer puppy learned so many new things at her house and our older Cocker Spaniel was treated like the couch princess that she thinks she is. They got so much attention and exercise on their vacation that they crashed out when they got home, which gave my wife and I the opportunity to do the same!”
“Flor was awesome! Very accommodating, well communicated and very patient when it came to my dogs needs. Will definitely book with her again when we’re back in town.”
“Luna absolutely loved her stay with Mia. She had a great time and made new friends. Mia kept me updated all the time and made sure Luna felt comfortable. I know she was well taken care of. We will definitely be booking with Mia again.”
“Angela is the perfect dog Grandmother!! She will love on your dogs like they are her on. She keeps you updated with pictures and videos. I highly recommend and will definitely be using her again.”
“Roki did an amazing job and our pup felt right at home! She’s super friendly and cares a lot about the pets ❤️ Definitely booking with her again for an amazing experience”
“Susan and her family are amazing, she took the time to get to know us so everyone was comfortable leading into the stay. We are so happy to have found her as she cared for our golden like he was part of her family. The updates were great and we especially liked the report card after. Thanks Susan!”
“We used Kelly to watch our little Cassie for 5 nights. Each day Kelly sent pictures and videos. She helped us feel at ease being away from her and we knew Cassie was safe and having a blast! The icing on top was the beautiful gift Kelly put together for Cassie when she left. Thanks Kelly for such wonderful service. We will definitely be using you again soon!”

About: I've taken care of pets for about a year! I started off helping my friends take care of their pets (Dachshunds, Shiba Inus, Pomeranians, Cats) when they were on vacation and completely fell in love with pets! I utilize positive reinforcement techniques to shape good behaviors in puppies, helping them become well-mannered companions. Likewise, I provide gentle, caring support to senior dogs, addressing their unique health concerns and giving them extra love and attention. My talent for adjusting my caregiving approach to fit various ages and personalities ensures a fun, nurturing atmosphere for every dog I look after. I'm currently working part-time remotely, so I have a lot of free time to spend with your pets! I love to stay active and keep your pets having fun and engaged! My schedule is fairly flexible, and I'm generally free all day on weekends and weekdays to watch over your pets! I have a fenced yard and a roommate who loves spending time with pets as well! Whether at my place or yours, you can trust that your furry friend will receive undivided attention and affection. In our company, every pet is cherished and looked after with utmost dedication, ensuring they feel loved and cared for throughout their stay.

“Heidi rocks! Her home matched her way of being; was warm and welcoming for Tank bc he gets separation anxiety especially in a new place. It didn't take long for him to feel right at home with Heidi who was wonderful to deal with as she sent lots of fun updates throughout the days while Tank was with her. I highly recommend Heidi for anyone traveling to Galveston!”
“Jennifer and her mom are wonderful! My dog has separation anxiety and they made him (and us) feel at ease! He was well cared! I would highly recommend them and will book with them again next time we are in Galveston!”
“Robin welcomed Lucy right away. She let us see the accommodation and fence so we could be reassured. Lucy seems calm and well cared for. I appreciate the pictures throughout the day.”
“Gus and Ginger really loved their day at Aislyn & Carson's house. Their home put our pups at ease and was the perfect doggy daycare day. We appreciate their flexibility and quick response.”
“Ariel was the best! Not only did she answer and accept my last minute request at 2:00 a.m. for the same day at 10:00 a.m. in MINUTES, when plans changed, and I asked for my 5 month old puppy to stay for an extra hour and a half, she was more than willing. She provided constant updates and photos throughout the day, and kept my boy entertained (he was exhausted that night- haha). She is truly a life saver. Thank you endlessly, Ariel. Truly! You're the best :)”

“We had such a good experience with Mya that we decided to take our pup there again. When he realized where we were, he did a whole body happy dance. We received an update during his stay and afterwards we were told that they got the water hose out for him. He loves water and I can imagine what a treat that was for him to play and eat the spays. It’s nice feeling comfortable knowing your dog is going to be well cared for and that they love being there.”

I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention.

Caring for pets isn’t something I fit around my life—it’s a core part of my day.

I maintain a clean, comfortable environment, provide lots of companionship, and send regular updates so owners feel connected. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and maintain their normal rhythm whether they’re with me or I’m with them

“Grace took very good care Freya and Jacqui. She went above and beyond to comfort my dogs who are very needy. She was also extremely patient with my older dog's stubborness and my younger dogs shy nature. The frequent and detailed updates that Grace provided us always eased our worries. They warmed up to her so quickly and enjoyed her company so much they might not even need me to come home. If I could give 6 starts I would.”
