House Sitting Austerlitz

“Sara was excellent and was able to accommodate all of Kylo's needs and provided plenty of updates to give us peace of mind that our dog was in great hands. Sara also went above and beyond in taking care of our home and left it just as is was when we left!”

“The best babysitter for my pups! They absolutely loved her. This was my first time ever leaving them or using this app and she made it so easy and gave me peace of mind. She made sure to be extra cautious with my beagles outside so they didn’t escape. You'll get constant updates and cute pics of your pups. You won’t find a better baby sitter!”

“Hannah did an outstanding job watching my dogs at my home for a couple nights. Her communication and updates throughout her stay were outstanding. She went up and beyond to make sure the house was in better shape than when it was left. My dog’s really enjoyed her. I would definitely recommend Hannah.”

About: I grew up riding horses and having small dogs around the house, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been dog and cat sitting off and on for the past 8 years, and I've been working in barns and caring for horses for 12. Today, I'm lucky enough to have a dog and cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets while you're away. I have a bachelor's degree in Equine Science, with Animal Science as one of my three minors. Through my education and years of hands-on experience, I've developed a strong understanding of animal care, behavior, health, and daily management across a variety of animals. I have experience caring for senior pets, anxious and reactive animals, and animals with additional medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure each pet receives the care they need. Whether your pet wants to go on a long walk or hike, play their favorite games, or simply curl up on the couch, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I care about getting to know each pet’s personality and routine, so they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Their well-being is always my top priority, and I’ll keep you updated along the way so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I genuinely love animals and feel incredibly lucky to spend my time caring for them. I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and make your time away a little easier! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, so I can be with your pets whenever is needed. Just let me know when you would prefer me there, and I can make it work! I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable while they're in my care. I take the time to learn their routines and personalities, follow your instructions closely, and give them the individual attention they need. I treat every animal as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your time away.

“If there were more stars, I’d give them to Melissa. Leaving my dog partner was hard. I was unsure it was the right decision to have someone I didn’t know, but Melissa is an angel. She was great! Multiple texts, pictures, and videos kept me in the loop. She gave him his meds twice a day. She left the house neat and clean. I’ll be having her back with no worries! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Isabella is a fantastic sitter! She loves the boys and they love her. She’s a great communicator and gives me updates, which I love! She will also go the extra mile when one doesn’t feel so great! So glad we found her!”

About: I’ve grown up on a farm, caring for various types of animals including dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish. I have years of experience working at animal shelters and clinics which makes me prepared for any type of situation. I’m skilled in providing loving, reliable care for all animals, big and small. I’m currently a full time college student so I will have classes throughout the day but am available in the mornings and the afternoons. Weekends are usually free unless noted otherwise. Ensuring a safe, calm, and comfortable environment is my priority. I’ll make sure your pup feels secure and happy while under my care, providing them with all the attention and safety they deserve!

“Amber was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs!! She kept us very updated with pictures and messages and even checked in with us on a potential medical issue. They both need oral medication and she was comfortable with that and made sure they had what they needed. We loved having her take care of our pups and felt confident they were safe and happy with her! We’d recommend her to any other families that need someone to love and care for their pets while they’re away!”

Alison W.

“Jen is the very best with my dogs. She stayed at my home with multiple pups for over a week. They remained happy, healthy with no issues for the entire visit. She is a great communicator in person as well as keeping me updated while I was away.”

JCatlin W.

“Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!”

Scott Z.

“DeAnna was very responsive and easy to work with. Thanks for watching the pups! We have a couple more sits booked with her and it’s nice to know they will be cared for while I’m gone.”

Stephanie L.

“This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t be happier! Diego was a pleasure to meet and the animals just adored him. He was very punctual, polite, and curteous. I will be Diego for this service many more times!”

About: I’ve loved caring for my friends and family’s pets for many years, so now I would love to love and care for your pets as extra income I work full time M-F, often weekends I am available for overnight stays, or throughout the week on my lunch for a 30 minute walk I take care or your pets and your home like they are my own. I love animals but don’t have any of my own due to living in a small apartment so I would love to come visit yours!

About: I have been an avid lover of dogs since I was a kid! Over the years, I have lived with both cats and dogs and taken care of both for extended periods of time for family members, friends, and roommates! I currently have one dog, a mixed breed rescue from the Humane Society named Kiwi. She is my best friend, and I understand how important it is to show the same love and kindness as I do to Kiwi to anyone else’s furry BFF. Nothing makes me happier than making furry friends feel loved while their owners are away! I can easily crate your dog if needed and am very attentive and careful when taking furry friends outside, on walks, or any other activity! As someone with experience with reactive dogs, I know how to be especially attentive to those needs. I will treat your furry family as if they are my own! ❤️ I work full-time at the University of Kentucky as an Academic Advisor from 8am-5pm, Monday-Friday. Hoover, I am committed to walking your furry friends before and after work and checking on them mid-day, if needed. Additionally, I have pretty open availability on weekends and most breaks. I am extremely comfortable staying with furry friends in their own environment. I am also comfortable watching reactive dogs and dogs who need to be crated, as my own dog fits both of those categories!

About: What sets me apart is that pet care has always been personal for me, not just a job. I grew up caring for cats and dogs, and some of my favorite childhood memories come from that. I've since fostered puppies and kittens through the humane society and pet sat for friends, family, and their friends' cats and dogs over the years. One example that stands out: I spent three years as the regular go-to sitter for a family's cats whenever they traveled, handling feeding, litter box duty, and plenty of love and attention. I also bring hands-on senior pet care experience: my own dog needed medication, pumpkin mixed into her food, and extra attentiveness in her later years, and I'm also comfortable with things like flea and heartworm treatment. With fostered kittens and puppies, I've helped with soft food feedings and socializing them to be comfortable around people. Whether it's a kitten, a senior, or anything in between, I'm at ease in your pet's home and would love to love on your pet! I recently started working remotely, which makes pet care easy to fit into my day. My schedule is flexible enough for morning and evening walks, plus midday walks or feeds whenever needed. And because I can be home most of the day, your pet gets consistent love and company, not just quick check-ins. I treat your home the way I'd want mine treated: with respect, care, and attention to detail. Between 15 years of pet care experience and 5 years of housesitting, I'm used to following careful instructions; not just for your pet's routine, but for your home too. I know I'm a guest, so I prioritize keeping things tidy and organized. On a recent 10-day stay caring for two cats, that meant watering the plants, bringing in the mail daily, and vacuuming up fur to keep the home as clean as I found it. I've sat in all kinds of spaces (rural, city, apartments, houses), so I can adapt easily to whatever your home looks like, and my goal is always to keep your pet comfortable in the space they already know.

“Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.”

“Brian was great! He communicated well, took great care of both our dog and cat (and the dog involved giving pills regularly!) - it was great to be able to away for a weekend and trust that everything was in good hands at home!”

“Choosing Kristin to take care of my fur babies was a big success! She’s was nice, kind and attentive to details! For three days of carrying she’s become a friend with all my animals, they seemed happy and playful. She’s always come on time and making a beautiful photos and videos of them for me, it makes my life out of town much better and stress free! I can highly recommend Kristin for your dogs, cats and any other pets, you will be blissful with her service.”
