House Sitting Alum Creek

“Layla and Gracie were very meticulous while caring for our three dogs and house for four days/nights while we were away. Reliable, responsive, and responsible. We appreciated the photos and look forward to their next stay.”

Barbara L.

“Katelyn was very communicative and responsive during our sitting. We had a fluke issue with one of our house alarms while we were gone, and Katelyn was very patient with helping us figure out the problem and find a solution. She took great care of our pets and sent many photos. We would recommend her!”

“Arianna is amazing. My babies love her! She is attentive, accommodating and sends plenty of pics. I have booked several stays with her, and will continue to do so in the future.”

Tishara C.

“Sierra is a great pet sitter and a wonderful person. She is conscientious and caring, always worrying about our pets and ensuring that they are safe and comfortable. She is reliable and trust worthy. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a cat, dog or house sitter :)”

Heidi L.

“Just came home from a week out of the country where Susan took care of my home, my Doberman mix, and my two cats. The house and pool are in great shape and my pets are relaxed and happy. She even got eggs for my dog because I ran out and he loves them so much!! Really excellent communication throughout. Thank you so much for taking great care of my home and my precious fur kids!”

About: work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them. I work remotely full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the pets in my care—whether they’re staying in my home or I’m house sitting in theirs. For dogs staying with me, I’m home throughout the day for plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent potty and play breaks in our fenced yard. They’re welcome to hang out with me while I work or find a comfortable spot to relax and nap. When I’m house sitting, I can work remotely from your home so your pets can enjoy the same companionship while staying in their familiar environment. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and downtime. Wherever I’m caring for your pet, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and make their time away from you feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my priority. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, and each pet’s individual needs, and I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and care routines. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard and plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, or take a break when they need one. I’m experienced with multi-dog households, different play styles, and recognizing when a dog needs some space. I also have gates to block access to stairs or separate areas of the home when needed, as well as multiple large crates for dogs who are crate-trained and feel most comfortable having their own space. When I’m house sitting, I’ll care for your pets and your home with the same attention I give my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s usual routine, respect any household rules or safety precautions, and make sure your home is secure while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for.

About: I have experience with all furry pets. Dogs of all sizes and personality types. Lover of cats. I’m both a dog and cat mom. Don’t worry, my parents watch my fur babies while I’m caring for yours. I’m very flexible as I’m fully committed to being there for you and your fur babies. I’m available for both overnight stays and daily drop ins. I will watch your fur babies in your home according to your guidelines. I’m very flexible and can adapt. That means I can have them out or crate them depending on your wishes.

“Kory was an amazing sitter for our dog! Very communicative, reliable, and caring throughout the entire stay. We would absolutely book with Kory again and highly recommend!”

“I booked Abbie on a last minute trip. She did a great job at caring for my 3 dogs. She made sure they had enough potty breaks and fed them as instructed. Thanks Abbie!”

Amanda C.

“Our dog is fearful of meeting new people and Brandi's calm energy was great for him (and my anxiety about trying a new sitter lol!). She dealt with feeding him turkey through his muzzle and all the other details of a first meeting we wanted to cover. 10 stars on communication and reliability. She did wonderfully with Georgie on our 'trial run' before our longer trip and I'm so happy to have found someone we can trust our anxious fur baby with while we're away.”

Lee F.

“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”

Ben P.

“Michelle was wonderful!! She stayed at the house for about a week to watch our dog and cat, who were so well cared for! I appreciated her constant clear communication and updates, the sweet photos she sent daily, and it gave us such peace of mind that our baby boys were being looked after so well! Our very shy cat ended up snuggling with her which made me so happy. When we got back our home was clean and tidy, the boys were happy, and she even left a gift of eggs from her friend’s chickens!! Michelle was sooo sweet we will definitely book her again!!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every age and need since I was 10 — from rowdy puppies and playful kittens to senior pets with special requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, tracking dosage schedules, and watching for changes in appetite, mobility, or behavior. With senior pets, I focus on gentle routines, extra rest, and close attention to comfort. With younger pets, I prioritize safe socialization, play, and structure so they get the interaction and exercise they need. I offer boarding and house sitting, so pets stay in a comfortable, familiar routine whether they’re in my care or their own home. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to feed, medicate, and care for their pets like my own. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets real attention, not just a quick check-in. Here’s what a typical visit or stay looks like: • Available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm • Flexible daytime drop-ins for medication schedules and older pets who need consistency • Extra playtime and outdoor walks built into every visit, not rushed • Happy to adjust timing around your pet’s normal routine so nothing feels disrupted I treat every pet like my own, with a strong focus on both physical safety and mental enrichment. Here’s what you can expect: • Fenced yard and two friendly, dog-savvy dogs to keep your pet company • Daily outdoor time for fresh air, sniffing, and exercise — not just a backyard bathroom break • Enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, treat-scattering, and interactive play to keep their mind engaged • Comfortable crating available if that’s part of your pet’s routine • Careful medication administration and monitoring for any dogs or cats with health needs • A calm, decorated, pet-friendly space that feels like home, not a kennel

About: I am the owner and operator of Buckaroo Bark Club LLC! I am fully insured, have a website and Google business page, and am available full time for you & your babies🤗🐾 Growing up with a veterinarian mother, we always had multiple pets in the home! When I was 22 I adopted my soulmate, Peaches. Five years later, she was diagnosed with heart failure at a terrifying hospital visit. My quick (panicked) reaction, and the incredible doctors, saved her life. She lived another happy 10 months with vigilance and guidance! Having to pill her twice a day, and keep a close eye, I became a pro! At the same time, I was taking care of clients pets, never missing a beat. June 2026 I moved from Virginia where I was one half of 9 Tails Pet Care LLC! You'll see my name mentioned in the Google reviews. We had about 50 clients, some were every day dog walks, some were just vacation bookings, but I loved them all! I was the team lead, and lead caregiver for three years. You can see from my photos, I cared for all kinds of animals. Not much intimidates me anymore lol! Special skills include giving medications, insulin, incredible patience and attention to detail. I'm annoyingly attentive to the weird little individual things- who's nervous, who needs patience, who has a routine, who's uncomfortable, who can I make MORE comfortable, what might the owner worry about while they're away. Every pet, every visit, is treated like my own. I am available, and used to, a full time pet care schedule! Having just moved from my last position in Virginia, I'm ready to establish an incredible client base here in Bastrop. I have a large fenced yard at home, on a quiet street. Pets will never be left unattended, and will always be on leash when leaving the home. Pets will always be handled gently and with care, while maintaining a strong grip on the leash! Water bowls will be clean and filled at every visit, every time. In home cameras are welcome to keep a close eye on your baby! I will also be snapping pictures for you to follow along on our adventures.

“Diego was the best dog sitter we could have asked for. He sent us pictures throughout the weekend, and it was clear he genuinely loves our dogs, which made us feel so happy and comfortable. He went above and beyond by taking them on multiple walks each day and staying with them the entire weekend. He even bought them new balls out of the kindness of his heart. Such a great guy and an even better dog sitter!”

“I had a great experience with Gayle! She took care of Celine for a full week and did an amazing job. She sent me videos every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the videos that she spent plenty of time with Celine and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. When I came home, Celine was happy and relaxed, and the house was left very clean and tidy. I really appreciate how responsible, attentive, and caring she was throughout the week. I would absolutely trust her with Celine again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I have loved dogs my whole life and currently live with two friendly Shih Tzus. I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and structured home. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and affection each day. My home is dog proofed and designed with their needs in mind. I have playpens for dogs who need their own space, cozy dog beds throughout the house, toys in every corner, and a clean, secure environment where they can relax and feel at home. During the warmer months, dogs can cool off in a splash pool for a fun and refreshing break. I’m comfortable caring for small and medium sized dogs. I follow each pet's routine and accommodate special feeding schedules. I understand that every dog has a unique personality. I take the time to help them settle in at their own pace and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Communication matters to me. You will receive regular updates, photos, and videos during your pet's stay. My goal is to provide a calm, dependable, and loving home where your pet is treated like one of my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because my two Shih Tzus are my only furry dependents. My fur babies receive my time, attention, and love every day. I treat every guest as if they were one of my own. Each day includes potty breaks, playtime, enrichment activities, cuddles, and plenty of affection. When I welcome dogs into my home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, exercise, and any special care instructions. I want them to feel comfortable and secure while you are away. One of my favorite things to do is celebrate "Woofdays!" If your pup is staying with me on their birthday, I will happily make the day extra special with a dog friendly birthday cake, a special meal (approved by you, of course), fun photos, and lots of extra love to celebrate their big day. My home is designed with dogs in mind, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. You'll receive regular photo and video updates throughout their stay. This way, you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and treated like family. I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're with me. My home is fully dog proofed and set up just for dogs, with cozy beds, toys throughout the house, playpens if they're needed, and even a doggy splash pool for hot Texas days. I know every dog is different, so before each stay I'll learn about their routine, personality, favorite toys, feeding schedule, and anything else that helps them feel at home. If your pup needs a little extra quiet time, I even have the space to give them their own room to relax and decompress. I take introductions slowly with my two friendly Shih Tzus and always let the dogs set the pace. My goal is for every guest to feel like they're staying with family, not just being boarded. I'll also send plenty of photos and updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and getting lots of love.

“Tatum is great! She was able to help me out last minute and was fabulous with Lincoln! She kept me informed and was great with communication! Will definitely keep using her services!”
