Sullivan's House and Pet Sitting Service

Sullivan's House and Pet Sitting Service I offer house sitting and dog/cat sitting services in the Kemah, Clear Lake Shores, and Seabrook areas. Now he's working full time, and I wish to continue.

I'm willing to go outside those areas if it's within a mile or so. My husband and I have been traveling via sailboat and are now situated in Clear Lake Shores, TX. We have completed several house and dog sitting jobs together. Most animals know I'm their friend within a short period of time. There was only one dog that didn't seem to like me, and he was a "trained to kill" Rotty at my neighbors ho

use. Scary! However, after I sat in their home visiting for awhile, he started coming over to me and allowing me to pet him. By the time I left, he and I buds! I love all sizes and shapes of dogs and cats, probably more than most humans I meet. I follow the rules of your home, and your dog's particular schedule for food, walks, treats vs. no treats, outdoor, indoor times, pills, and play times. As for the house-sitting, I will make sure your mail is collected, house plants watered, and generally keep the area clean and orderly for when you return. If anything should go wrong, I will call you immediately. It is my way to make the animals as comfortable as possible, while maintaining the integrity of your home. If you want me to simply drop by and let your animal outside to go to the bathroom, to be fed and given water, and to play with them, this is a 2 hour job for $20. I will also collect your mail if necessary. I have found that most animals prefer it if someone is there with them the entire time. Overnight care is $35/day. This includes the house-sitting care as well. There may be times when my hubby and I decide to take a sailing adventure for several months, which will be announced on this page ahead of time, so you'll be aware of my schedule. If you're interested, let me know ahead of time, so I can check for openings. Today is July 28, and I am now house-sitting and dog sitting for another 4-5 days. That frees me up for August.

Recently, the marina we're docked in disconnected wifi, so we're without any internet services at the moment. We're furiously trying to find an alternative that is in our budget, but so far nothing. My deepest apologize for any inconvenience to anyone trying to contact us and not hearing back. We hope to remedy this soon, and thank you all for your patience.

Hi folks,I'm available now for house/pet sitting from July 9th, to the 26th. If anyone needs me, let me know!

Hi everyone!

After much deliberation, I have decided to raise my rates. It was not an easy decision to make this change. What tipped the balance was knowing that most other sitters are charging $50 for the first animal a $10 for each additional animal. Plus, I originally wanted to stay close to where I live, but have branched out further than I had intended. Gas money adds up.

I will be starting new fees at the beginning of June. The new rates are as follows...

OVERNIGHT HOUSE AND DOG SITTING

$40 for the first two animals, and $10 per extra animal.

I am very serious about maintaining a healthy, comfortable and loving environment for the animals I care for, I also keep the home in the same, or better, condition it was in when I arrived. It is my intention to keep the surroundings familiar, by following the home/pet owner's schedules and instructions.

DAY VISITS AND WALKS

One dog: 30 minutes: $20 ($5.00 extra for each additional 15 min.)

Two dogs: 30 minutes: $27.50 (7.50 extra for each addtional 15 min.)

More than 2 dogs, will be discussed on a per dog basisI

I you have any questions or concerns, please contact me on this site, or, if you already have my phone number, please call.

I'm editing my original schedule to show that I'll be pet sitting from June 14th to the 17th instead of June 6th through 10th. Thus, all of June is open until the 14th. Thanks!

Well, my arm is slowly healing, spring is (hopefully) around the corner and vacation time is coming for many folks. Our last sit was delightful. We took care of our buddy, Jax, while mom and dad were sailing the Caribbean for 2 weeks. Such a pleasure. We love that boy. His parents are pretty awesome, too!!!

I'm posting my current schedule so people can see what days I have available.

I am available until March 23, then again on April 2nd til April 25. My calendar is completely open for May. In June, I have a job from the 6th - 10th, and from the 29th to July 9th, but the rest of the days are open.

There are days available for those who need help. I prefer doing at least 2 night stays and longer. If you're in a pinch and need an overnight person, let me know though. I might be able to manage it.

Last week we pet and house sat for the Morris family, a wonderful, loving family. Mom and Dad were charming people, with two adorable sons, and a beautiful daughter.

We enjoyed all 4 of their adorable pups; Amy, Baby, (the girls), and Skinny, and Floppy (the boys). Really sweet dogs and each one with their own particular behaviors. Amy was Alpha dog and loved to play hard! Baby was very shy, but cuddled and played when SHE wanted. Skinny was snuggly, but would growl if anyone came near. Floppy had the sweetest disposition of all of them and just wanted to snuggle and be sweet all the time.. We had so much fun with them, playing catch, chase the bunny, run around the house, and snuggle time while watching TV. Paul and I both just adored them all and hope to see them again!

Sending all of you Christmas greetings of love and good wishes. My hopes are that this Christmas will be a reminder of all the blessings this time of year represents.

Special thanks to all the people who hired me to take care of their beloved pets and their homes this year. It was such an honor and pleasure. May the New Year bring us all joy and contentment.

Well, our stay at the Austin's is coming to a close on Thursday.. We have so enjoyed our stay with the two boys, Gizmo and Shasta. They are such a treat...very well behaved, loving, snuggly dogs. It will be difficult to leave them. I see how it might be a hard thing being a foster parent...after getting attached, it's difficult to let them go!

Our friends have had a very long, long journey, up to Canada, then to Nova Scotia (where I've always wanted to visit), and back through all the northern states. I'm sure they'll be happy to get home to their boys, and their cozy home.

We thank you, both, for giving us the opportunity to care for your home and your adorable dogs, Rick and Cheryl, and we'll see you very soon!

Looks like November is almost full. From the 11th to the 30th is booked. We will be caring for Gizmo and Shasta, Cheryl and Rick's dogs. Looking forward to being with them!
