Affordable Pet Sitter- West Houston

Pet care experience

Offering daily discounts for late drop offs and early pickups. Let me know your plans and I'll send you a custom quote today! Over 40 yrs of experience caring for pets. Currently caring for several dogs and cats including many in the own neighborhood and can give you several recent references. My family includes Lisa, Paul, John-Paul and Cameron and we will all be giving your pet love while in our home. Our pet's are neutered and get along with other pets very well. I have earned the Red Cross badges for Pet CPR and First Aid. I am also very comfortable administering oral and injected medicines. I have done this many times for my own pets and the pets of others. Love and Attention - I will show your dog attention throughout the day as I’m home most of the time. He or she will go out for potty break several times per day. I will also walk your dog each morning and each evening. At the end of the block is the Greenbelt trail which my family also frequently uses for exercise. I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of grassy area and trees. The dogs can also play fetch in the backyard. There is a patio that the dogs like to use for sunning. Living and Sleeping Arrangements - Your pup will sleep inside on his/her bed. I also have room for a kennel/crate if that is your preference. Please also let me know about their favorite toy, feeding and walking schedule or other special needs they might have. Your pet will stay inside so it's very important that he/she is potty trained. I am only accepting family friendly dogs that do not have a history of biting people or other animals. I do not host dogs that are not spayed or neutered. Checkups and Dog Walking: -------------------------------------- The charge $20. per visit or $45 for 3 visits in one day. I will come to your home and stay up to an hour to give your pets love, food, water and exercise. If you have a cat, I can also clean your cat litter. If you have a bird, hamster or other caged animal, I can clean their cage. While I am there, I can also bring in your mail or water your plants. PLEASE NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH THE CALENDAR MAY SHOW BOOKED, THIS IS FOR BOARDING IN MY HOME ONLY. I AM ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO DO CHECKUPS AND DOG WALKING. Overnight Boarding: ---------------------------. I charge PER DAY for boarding at my home. Charges are for the full day regardless of what time the pet arrives. The summer time rate from June 1st to August 31st is an additional $5 per day. The Holiday rates are an additional $5 per day. See holiday calendar below. * RATE IS BASED ON PER DAY AND NOT PER NIGHT. Check-in/Check-out Times: ------------------------- Check-in anytime after 9AM. Check-out anytime before 7PM. Early Check-in or Late Check-out (7-9PM only) is charged @ $5/hr. No Check-out after 9PM. *RATE IS BASED ON PER DAY AND NOT PER NIGHT. **BECAUSE I AM PART OF AN ACTIVE FAMILY AND MAY HAVE APPOINTMENTS OR ERRANDS, CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT TIMES MUST BE SCHEDULED AT THE TIME OF RESERVATION. ***NO UNSCHEDULED CHECK-OUTS AFTER 9PM. ****EXACT PICKUP AND DROPOFF TIMES REQUIRED *****PLEASE NOTE THAT ADDITIONAL CHARGES MAY APPLY FOR LATE ARRIVALS BEYOND SCHEDULED PICKUP OR DROPOFF TIMES *Weekends (Fri, Sat, Sun) require a 3 day minimum stay. On holidays, there is a $5 per day up charge. Holidays include the day prior to the holiday or holiday weekend to the day after the holiday or holiday weekend.

Thank you Lisa and John-Paul for taking care of Aura during our recent holiday. Aura had an amazing time and she came home really happy. We are so glad to have found you. We appreciate you providing us regular updates and pictures which helped reassure that she was in good hands. We would definitely like to board her with you again.
