“I just cannot praise Deanna highly enough! She goes above and beyond her responsibilities! Diligent and conscientious, I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again! ”
“Alyssa was punctual, very sweet with my dog, and seemed comfortable and confident walking him and interacting with him, even though he can be a handful. She's clearly an experienced dog owner, and she was very professional and pleasant to work with. I will definitely rebook in the near future!”

About: I have years of both personal and professional pet care experience. I have volunteered at a veterinary hospital and owned multiple pets over the years. I work full time from home and my schedule is flexible around the needs of my day. I have ample opportunity to care for pets. I provide everyday care for my current pet. I also live right next to a park with ample activity space for you favorite pet’s walk!
About: I have owned dogs all of my life, but have done pet sitting for cats, rabbits, birds, goats, pigs, chickens, fish and snakes in the past. My main pet sitting experience was in San Marcos, Texas while I was working at The First United Methodist Church. I did pet sitting as a way to raise funds for my 1st two missions to Mozambique in 2005 and 2006. I sat for the pastors and many members of the congregation, so I have references if needed. I most recently was the primary care giver of my elderly dachshund who passed away at 18 years of age 4 years ago, so I feel especially qualified to take care of older pets and I am comfortable administering medications. I give plenty of love, snuggles and kisses and playtime, with walks if requested. I can also give baths and do basic grooming like brushing and nail trims.
“Jake was amazing and great with the dogs. We were kinda in a pinch since our arrangements with a different person fell through while we were out of town. We reached out to Jake and he immediately helped out. Jake was on time to walk the dogs and wrote detailed summaries of their walks. If you need a person to take care of your dogs, then Jake is your person!”
About: I have taken care of pets from family and friends for years. Pets are like children and I make sure to make mine and anyone’s pets a priority because they are family. I love playing with dogs and cats and taking dogs on walks. My schedule is very flexible as I have just moved back to Houston after finishing my Masters degree. Rover is all I am doing right now as I continue my job search. I have a fenced patio attached to my apartment as well as a dog park in my apartment complex. I make sure dogs get plenty of play time whether that be inside or outside. As well as making sure they have plenty of food and water. I have plenty of cat toys to help entertain your fur baby!
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I've owned a variety of small and large dog breeds. As a child, it was my dream to become a veterinarian. Although, I didn't fulfill this desire, I like to help animals in whatever ways that I can. My goal is to provide your four-legged extended family members with the best care and same compassion that my Poodle, Charlie Brown receives. I'm currently providing services as a full-time sitter. Please try to request bookings an hour or more before my services are needed. I will do my best to get back to you in a prompt manner. I am currently offering walks and drop-ins. I am unable to board additional pets at my rental unit; however, I am happy to assist in the environment where your pet is most comfortable.
“Love Risi! Would definitely recommend her services! She’s great with my dog and accommodates best she can. I was overwhelmed with some things and asked her last minute / day of if she could swing by and walk my dog for thirty minutes and she was able to accommodate me! ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks again, Risi!!!”
About: I have owned and cared for many different kinds of animals! From reptiles to dogs, I love them all the same. Taking care of animals is what I want to do as a career choice. I am recently home from the military, and I love being around animals. I am staying in Houston for the next 6 months, so I’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the company of your pets! I live in a pet friendly townhouse with a dog park, and lots of hiking areas for long walks! There is plenty of room for playing and relaxing, and I will make sure your pet has a wonderful time!
“When we leave our puppy with Stefanie, we know Murphy is in good hands. She is flexible and literally for us was a lifesaver, since she was able to helped us last minute, when we had to moved to Jacksonville at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and of course she took the necessary precautions (her own leash, antibacterial, etc). Also lots of communication and lots of pictures where we can see our dog having a blast! Thank you!”
“Jamiahya is doing a good job. She has a good way with my dog Gracie, treating her very well. Unfortunately, Gracie is not a big fan of going for walks. She has been this way since her sister passed away last year. The duration of the walks are not the full scheduled 30 minutes, and that is not a reflection of Jamiahya, but Gracie's attitude towards walks.”
“Hailey is awesome- great communication and Ripley loves her already. We were planning on just a couple days of walks but decided to make it a weekly appointment because how well it went!”
“Amani is a great sitter and dog walker, she’s very polite and is great with my dog.. she shows up on time and always keeps me updated with her walks! Will continue to book her!”
About: Hi! I would love to take care of your special friend! I am home 24/7 so I will be able to attend to your fur baby and give them the love and care they deserve. I currently have a rescue, Savana and she will help me welcome any new friends into our home! I allow dogs in my home to free roam, and they are more than welcome on the furniture and bed. I know canine CPR/ first aid and can administer oral medications. I will go on 4-5 walks daily, either around the apartment complex or the neighborhood. We will also visit the Millie Bush dog park everyday. I do live in an apartment so at this time I will only be able to take small to medium sized dogs.
About: We can’t wait to meet your furry friend! We are a husband and wife team. Whether you give notice far in advance or last minute, we’re your go-to for dog watching. If belly rubbing and head scratching were a class in college, we would’ve received an A+! We’ve gained experience through years of taking care of our own & other people’s dogs. We’re certified dog trainers and have a keen ability to manage multiple dogs at once. Skilled in making dogs listen through words & hand motions, and we enjoy rewarding great behavior with treats! With every dog stay, we will send pictures and updates on walks, poopy situations, and meeting new dog friends. We can also provide daily exercise if your dog is physically fit. We will go on walks at least 2x/day. Available to accommodate any special needs. Kia works from home and has a flexible schedule so there is plenty of time to spend with your pets! We work together on feedings, walks, etc. We have a fenced yard so there is plenty of room for your furry friends to run around and play, when they are not inside.

Risi is so good with our dog, Nella. She is one of Nella's most favorite people. Nella gets so excited for her walks with Risi. Risi is extremely kind and loving with our pet. We think Risi is wonderful! We recommend her to anyone who needs someone to help with their pet.
Olha was so kind and caring for my boy, Rocko. I am always a little nervous when I leave town because my dog is 14 years old and deals with a little bit of confusion at times. Olha was communicative and trustworthy and Rocko was calm and content when I returned. I definitely recommend Olha for dog walking!
Gregory was excellent. You can tell he takes your pet's care serious. He answered all of our questions and put us at ease about the process. Our poodles responded very well to Gregory and came back from their walk all smiles. Our dog's can be uneasy around new guests so we appreciated the extra care he took to put them at ease. Great experience and we plan to use his services again soon. He was personable, punctual, and provided us with great feedback.
Jamiahya is doing a good job. She has a good way with my dog Gracie, treating her very well. Unfortunately, Gracie is not a big fan of going for walks. She has been this way since her sister passed away last year. The duration of the walks are not the full scheduled 30 minutes, and that is not a reflection of Jamiahya, but Gracie's attitude towards walks.
