The nation's largest network of 5-star pet sitters and dog walkers

My name is Alicia and I'm from Tomball, TX. I have one Dachshund-mix named Pinky (3 y/o) & a new addition to my family-Bruce (1 y/o) a possible mix of German Shepherd & Bassett Hound. I live with 3 other family members in a house on 7 acres and have a partially fenced area that connects to my detached garage. When I am away, my dogs Pinky & Bruce stay in the over-sized Laundry Room downstairs. Most of the time, Pinky sleeps with either myself or my daughter. Pinky loves to snuggle! Bruce loves to run & play outside! Bruce usually sleeps in his bed downstairs. Our house has plenty of room for your pets to stay overnight. We have wooden and tile flooring throughout the downstairs. There are also two living areas to cuddle up on the couches. My neighborhood is small, with only about 10 other houses and everyone has lived here for 20+ years! Everyone knows everyone and very few cars go down our street which makes our street the perfect place to take walks. We are also closeto Burroughs Park. I don't have very many restrictions because I mainly work from home and have a flexible schedule. I do ask that your pets are up to date on their shots...this way my o s and other dogs are protected! Please let me know if your pet has special needs. I hope to make your dogs Vacay a fun one!

The Process

The initial consultation is a meet and greet. It is the first opportunity for the pets, parents, and sitter to meet face to face. Keeping the entire family's comfort in mind, I want to make certain their is an unmistakable connection between your companion(s) and me.

While reviewing your pet(s) routines, I will answer any questions and go over special instructions. You should also feel free to take me on a tour and show us the locations of food, supplies, medications, etc.

I will interact with your dog or other pet(s) and if you approve and your dog gets along with others, I can bring my dog along to play and entertain. I can take them to a park or go for walks. I will assure that your loving companion(s) is in good hands and enjoys the day.

To best introduce myself and bond with your dog, I will take him or her on a long walk as soon as I arrive. If the dogs enjoy being brushed, I will end the walk by brushing and giving them a massage afterwards. I visit the dog park and spend plenty of quality time cuddling and finding new things to chew on! I spend a lot of time at Lakewood Forest park and wooded trails of the 100 acre Wildlife Preserve. I love all animals and will always treat your babies as my own and with as much love and care as possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a very special member of your family!
Please reach out to me if you have any questions and I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet soon!

At our initial meeting I'd like to review your pet(s) routines, At that time, I will answer any questions you make have and review any instructions. I'll also need to know where the food, supplies, medications, etc. are kept.

My goal will be to make sure that your companion is happy, comfortable, and feels loved. I am available for walks, check-ins, and pet sitting day or night.

I promise to treat your companions as my own during the time spent with them, Call me today!

**About me**
I have over a years experience working with dogs in a professional environment in both kennel and doggy daycare. I currently work full time at a pet resort, but would love to pick up a second job caring for animals on an individual basis. I've own three dogs myself, a Border Collie mix and two Miniature Schnauzers who are sadly no longer with me. I've worked with dogs of all breeds, from Chihuahuas and Greyhounds, to German Shepards and Irish Wolfhounds. I have my own reliable transportation, and references from clients who I've watched animals for.

**About my home/services**
All my services are offered in my spare time. I'm available full-time on the weekends, very early mornings, and during the afternoons and evenings.

**About my neighborhood**
I live in a very quiet, well-kept neighborhood in the Spring-Cypress area. A scenic lake with a walking trail is centered, and there are no main roads through the neighborhood.

**What to expect**
I love to cuddle and spend time giving dogs individual attention. I can also play with them if toys are provided, or walk them around the neighborhood lake.

**Special rules or requests**
I have worked with a wide variety of breeds, but I require a meet and greet before accepting any client to ensure I am prepared to deal with any behavioral issues that may occur.

Hello my name is Amanda but everyone calls me Mandie. I am a mother to 3 children, they are 4, 8, & 11 and they love animals. I served six years in the Army and a year overseas. If I could do it all over again I would. I lived on a ranch growing up where I had the responsibility of feeding and raised farm animals. I bottle fed calves, feed horses, and cows. I also grew with three labs and Saint Bernard. Then I fell in love with Shih Tzu dogs. I had three plus their babies. I then became a breeder where I kennel trained, potty trained, feeding schedules, nail clipping, brush their hair,and bathing. A typical day with your furry babies with me will be filled with lots of fun, running, walking, lots of love and TLC. I enjoy the outdoors so being outside will never be a problem. Growing up with animals was truly something that I love and miss dearly. So being around animals of all sorts puts a big smile on my face. With all this fun and excitement with animals will bring out the kid in me. I have dog sit and taken care of family pet. My best memory was taken my mom's dog to the beach for the first time. It was absolutely amazing and so much for him but mostly for me.
