Your Pet Care Questions Answered

From booking your first visit to understanding our policies, find everything you need to feel confident about choosing For Pets Sake for your beloved pets.

  • Getting started is simple! Call, text, or email Kristina directly at 713-419-7491. We'll schedule your free meet & greet where you'll meet Kristina, discuss your pet's needs, and create a custom care plan. No apps, no middlemen—just direct communication with your pet's caregiver.

  • This complimentary 30-45 minute consultation lets us meet your pets, learn their routines and personalities, discuss your specific needs, and answer all your questions. We'll also exchange keys and emergency information. It's the perfect way to ensure we're the right fit for your furry family.

  • For the best availability, we recommend booking 1-2 weeks ahead. However, we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests when possible—especially for our regular clients who we've been caring for over the years.

  • Every visit includes feeding, fresh water, any needed medications, plenty of companionship and playtime, litter box or cage cleaning, and a thorough home security check. We can also water plants and collect mail. Drop-in visits start at $25 for 30 minutes, $40 for extended visits.

  • Our individual dog walks start at $25 for 30 minutes or $40 for extended walks. We tailor each walk to your dog's energy level and needs—whether they're fast walkers, prefer a snail's pace, or just need some fresh air and bathroom breaks.

  • Absolutely! With my Animal Science degree and veterinary technician background, I'm completely comfortable administering pills, liquid medications, eye drops, and even injections when needed. Special needs and senior pets are always welcome.

  • Pricing varies based on the number of pets and specific care needs. We'll discuss this during your free meet & greet to create a plan that works for your family.

  • I welcome cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, and most small animals into my care. With my Animal Science degree and veterinary technician background, I'm comfortable with a wide variety of pets. The only animals I don't provide care for are snakes. During our meet & greet, we'll discuss your specific pet's needs to ensure they receive the best possible care.

  • We offer comprehensive in-home care including pet daycare at Kristina's home ($25 for first 3 hours, $5 per additional hour), house sitting services (starting at $22 per visit), pet transport ($15 each way), and even emergency lockout service ($40) for existing clients with keys on file.

  • We're available Monday-Saturday 8am-8pm and Sunday 12pm-4pm. This includes all services, consultations, and that Sunday availability that most pet sitters don't offer!

  • Yes! We provide reliable pet care seven days a week, including all holidays. Many pet sitters take time off during busy travel seasons, but we're here when you need us most. Holiday service is available with advance booking.

  • Changes can be made in writing (text works perfectly). A $20 change fee applies for modifications made during the reserved service period. Please note that clients are responsible for the full reserved amount regardless of early returns or late departures.

  • We understand plans change! Here's our policy: For cancellations made 8 or more days in advance, you'll receive a 100% refund. If you cancel 2-7 days before your service, there's a 20% fee with an 80% refund. Cancellations made 0-48 hours prior to service require full payment with no refund available. Holiday bookings require full payment with no refunds, and holidays include Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year.

  • Payment in full is due at the time of booking to secure your dates. This ensures your pet's care is confirmed and allows us to plan accordingly.

  • We serve a 4-mile radius from central Katy, including Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes, Seven Meadows, and Falcon Ranch. For specific location questions, please call to confirm coverage.

  • Our transparent pricing includes drop-in visits starting at $25 for 30 minutes or $40 for extended visits, and dog walks starting at $25 for 30 minutes or $40 for extended walks. Overnight stays start at $60 at Kristina's home, while pet daycare is $25 for the first 3 hours with $5 for each additional hour. House sitting services start at $22 per visit, and pet transport is $15 each way to your destination.

  • Yes! For Pets Sake is fully bonded and insured for complete protection and peace of mind. Professional coverage has been in place since we became a full-time business in 2012.

  • All keys are stored in a secure safe at an undisclosed location with numbered storage and no identifying information attached. Your security and privacy are our top priorities.

  • With 25+ years of experience and established relationships with local Katy veterinarians, we have clear emergency protocols. You'll have my direct contact information, and I'll reach you immediately in any urgent situation. My vet tech background helps me assess and respond appropriately to health concerns.

  • You'll receive regular updates with photos of your happy pets! All communication is direct with Kristina—no apps, no call centers, no third-party platforms. Just personal, reliable updates from someone who truly cares about your pets.
