House Sitting in Parker Lane, Austin

“Cortney took incredible care of Baxter and Bean. They were in great spirits when we got home from a week away and Cortney left the house spotless! We can’t wait for her to stay with our boys again!”

“Brandy was great! She took really good care of our 2 dogs. I felt confident knowing that they were in good hands and really appreciated the whole experience.”

“Ali was incredible, my pup has some quirks when he’s out on walks so I was nervous about having someone else take care of him but I knew he was in safe and competent hands with Ali! I’m new to the city so I was also nervous about having someone I didn’t know watch him for the weekend but as soon as I met her I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her hands. She was kind to me and Gronk and gave him the love & attention he would get with me!! I will absolutely call her next time I’m out of town??”

“Alison was awesome, she is friendly, a great communicator, took amazing pet photos, and we will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

“Jon was amazing with our three crazy pups! He’s patient and very sweet with them. He sent tons of pics and videos and was very considerate of our home. Will definitely book again! :)”

“Victoria was amazing with our large furry family - 3 dogs and 2 cats! She sent updates and picture daily, and they looked happy in each one. I could tell they were in great hands when we got home. Would definitely use Victoria again!”

“Tiffany is fantastic! Our girls (Lennon + Mink) loved their time with her. This was our first experience leaving them with someone they didn’t already know and Tiffany was the perfect sitter. Not only was she already communicative from the get go, but our sweet pup got gnarly hot spots the day before we left for a long weekend and we were heartbroken to leave her with an open wound and a stranger to tend to her. Tiffany was wonderful having to adapt last minute and make applying topical ointment a part of her routine with Lennon while we were gone. She monitored Lennon closely and updated us regularly. Not to mention our cat absolutely loves her. Tiffany will be our go to sitter from now on!”

“Shawn took care of our 2 small pups for almost a week and was wonderful! She was punctual, caring and responsive. She had her husband over a few times which we had agreed to beforehand - they both seem like genuine dog-lovers and were affectionate with Snickers & Soba. Our pups looked happy and healthy upon on our return. Shawn gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our vacation, and we were grateful to have her stay at our house!”

“Madison was fantastic - our little Meowman was a very content cuddler in her hands. We got tons of pictures and we came home to a happy cat and were never worried about a thing. Excellence all around.”

About: Howdy, I’m J (they/them)🤠 I'm an ex-educator that has pivoted from working with teenagers to the world of animals! Some would say they're one and the same, and I would partially agree haha. Currently I work at a dog park/bar in far South Austin (which I could DEFINITELY bring your doggos to if they meet our rules and you’re comfortable), and before that I worked for an Austin-based pet sitting company. Aside from hanging out with my two critters at the house, Boomer, a pit-bull/dachshund mix, and Remi, a Russian Blue kitty, I can be found almost every day making canine buddies at work. I will be extremely communicative about my schedule, so we can work out a time that best fits everyone! I care for all animals with incredible attention to detail, unconditional love, and a heart full of compassion, just as they give to us humans.

“Jena was such a great sitter! This was my first experience using Rover (or any app) for my quirky rescue pup, Remy. I was very anxious about how he would do with Jena, and she was always quick to update me and provide feedback! Even with Remy’s special quirks, he was quick to warm to her and trust her in his home. Thanks for such a great experience!”

“Colleen has watched my dog multiple times, and has been amazing every time! He is an anxious dog, and was also recovering from surgery and under restrictions. Colleen is an excellent caretaker and completely trustworthy. She has also been accommodating when I have needed a sitter at the last minute. I highly recommend her!”

“Blu loves walks with Dontay! Was a rough meet as Blu was scared but Dontay made Blu feel comfortable in no time! Now he waits for Dontay on the patio and greets him with a hug and kiss! Dontay is more like a friend not just a dog walker💙 Hes always on time and wares my baby out”

“Will did an awesome job staying at our house for a week taking care of Reagan!! He sent us plenty of picture and video updates and left the house very clean. Thanks so much Will!! 10/10 recommend and hope he is available again in the future!”

“Jamie took great care of my large energetic dog while I was away for the holidays and left a very cute report card detailing Lucy’s time while I was gone. Will definitely book again!”

“Rick took great care of my boys! It was easy to relax on vacation!”

“Kirby had an amazing day with my six week old puppy! She was very accommodating to his needs and made sure he ate and had potty breaks. We returned to a happy, well rested puppy! Thank you, also loved the pics!”

“Courtney was punctual, communicative, thoughtful and did a great job taking care of our boy Axle! Will def be using her again and highly recommend.”

“Barbara truly cares about the dogs and the house under her care! We came home to some happy pups and a house just as clean as we had left it. Barbara clearly spends lots of time engaging, playing, and spoiling the dogs. So glad we found her!!!!”

“Julia was responsive, responsible, and extremely easy to work with. She stayed at our place for more than two weeks and left the pets healthy and happy and our apartment surprisingly clean. We would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat or dog sitter.”
