About: I attended Animal Science BOCES program for 2 years, graduating with my diploma. I am experienced with critters of all kinds from snakes to rabbits! I am comfortable with all sizes, shapes. I have a wide range of time where I am available for morning, afternoon and night walks/meetings. I only work part time so I generally have more time compared to full time workers. I am always very gentle, inviting with all animals. I typically let the pet come to me first, getting my scent and then proceed to give them lots of love.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.
About: I have had dog(s) since I was 9 years old, so I am extremely familiar with the amount of care and commitment it takes to look after them. I have a very flexible schedule, so I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups or care for your cats! I provide drop-in services and pet sitting in your home. Boarding at my home can be discussed if needed - I have 2 dogs and a fenced in yard.
“Maggie is a great find!!! She is new to TX but done Rover in her previous state. I used her to do a dog walk at the park and my dogs had a great time. They were very excited to meet her and they listened to her. I often need a house sitter and we are going to book her this weekend. I highly recommend Maggie.”
About: I’ve been a pet lover ever since I’m a kid. I own 7 cats and they are my whole heart, I truly love them more than anything else. I would love nothing more than to help you and your pet in a time of need ❤️ Currently, I live in my own home with my seven kitties. I typically wake up around 5 am and spend a bit of time with my animals and feed them and clean their boxes and all that other fun stuff! Caring for my pets is my number one priority, they truly do mean the world to me. I strive to create a pet friendly environment where my animals and yours will be happy and comfortable! My seven babies are comfortable with other cats and are for the most part comfortable with dogs. My two cats, Nala and Val, are quite skittish but arrangements can be made so that they aren’t around dogs if need be. I have a spare bedroom that is mostly for the cats with litter boxes and toys set up, but that room can be used for boarding or just to give our animals a bit of time to get used to each other! If you have a dog who likes to run around outside, accommodations can definitely be made for that as well! My yard is not fenced in, but it’s spacious enough that I can run around with your pup! Truly, whatever accommodations you need, I am happy to help.
“Sophia is a very conscientious sitter! We have two rescued kittens and they have not been socialized with any one but us since we got them just over a month ago. She came into our home and our heart when she spent the time to bond with both of them. She took awesome photos of both of them so we really got to see that they were happy. She did all that we asked of her and even dealt with a few unexpected things!”

About: My family owned an animal kennel rescue for a few years. It has given me very useful knowledge of what to do in emergency situations. It gives me a respect for the animal(s). I have had to act quickly before when an animal was hit by a car or bitten by another animal. So as drastic as those two things are I just want you to know I have been in those types of situations so if anything would happen to your fur baby I am ready to respond. I will go above and beyond to make sure your little baby comes home just as happy if not happier. I know how being away from mom/dad can make them sad. I want the owners to enjoy their trip or their day at work to the best of their abilities and not have to worry if their pet is being taken care of correctly. No more wondering, book me!! I look forward in meeting your pet. I am currently a full stay at home pet mom so I am here to watch your pet any time of day any day of week. We have a fair size yard for the dogs to play in. Some is fenced in and we are working on getting the rest of it enclosed. I do allow pets on the furniture. I will respect your rules though. I don’t want the animals to get confused. As long as they didn’t just play in a mud puddle, We will continue to follow your rules. I do not want them to get confused when it times to go back home or for you to come home. I will respect anything you would want me to follow. I am a very easy going person. And we look forward in meeting your pet.

Sari H.
“Sari has been helping us with the care of our dog for just over one year now. In addition to occasionally walking our pup and getting her to her grooming appointments on time, Sari does a phenomenal job boarding our dog. We feel comfortable going out of town knowing that Sari will take good care of our little girl! Sari is great with communication and updates us on how our pup is doing while we are away, and even sends the occasional photo! She pays careful attention to our dog's diet and gives her lots of love and attention. Our dog loves Sari so much that we have a hard time getting her to come back home with us after her walks or appointments!”

“Ivan is one of the sweetest individuals I have ever met and so good with animals! I don't trust my pets with many people, especially since my older dog has on set dementia/ health issues and doesn't like people but he loved Ivan instantly. Ivan has stayed in my home and taken care of my 3 pets like they are their own and given them the love and care they needed. I trust Ivan fully with my babies. And Ivan is one sitter I would highly recommend! The compassion they have for animals is unmatched!”
