Cat Sitting in Austin

About: I've been a pet owner for 16 years, and I will treat your pup as I would my own - with lots of cuddles, treats and playtime.. I am patient and am able to work with your dog to make him or her feel comfortable. I have had two geriatric dogs in the past and am familiar with the care for these more fragile pups. I work from home most days, but I am limited on time to drop-in. I can drop in before 8, at lunch, and/or after work to accommodate your needs. Ability to drop in before 5 are dependent on locations close to where I live. For boarding or drop-in visits to my home: I have a fully enclosed privacy fence and spacious back yard. I can crate as you wish - I have crates medium and large dogs, and you are welcome to bring your own kennel or beds. For Pet/housesitting services: The goal with pet care at a client's home is to maintain routine and consistency to ease any anxiety or confusion pets may feel without their fur-parents. Outside and play time are absolutes.

“Haley was amazing with my two girls! She spent time loving on them and playing with them in the yard. She really went above & beyond to make sure they were taken care of. She was very communicative and snapped the best photos. Nothing but good things to say about her! Thanks again Haley ?”

About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and dogs and have always had a love for animals. I have experience with pets of all ages, including senior animals and pets with medical needs requiring multiple medications. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, chickens, and helped with horses. I’ve also helped with house sitting and animal care for neighbors. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and health, and I treat every animal like they are my own. I’m excited to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your pets. Right now I have a flexible schedule, so pet care fits well into my routine. I’m able to provide walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m reliable and will make sure each pet’s routine is followed so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I provide attentive, reliable care in the client’s home, following each pet’s normal routine including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar environment. I’m also very observant and proactive in noticing any changes in behavior or health, and I communicate promptly with owners if anything seems off.

“Autumn was amazing. She took great car of our older cat who takes medication. She was reliable, caring and maintained good communication. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10. I would frequently pet sit for my neighbors when they went on trips, and took care of my own animals (a cat, 3 dogs (1 large, 2 small) and fish). I’m quite used to staying up overnight with small puppies for whatever they need, and work best with a specific schedule and instructions to ensure each and every pet is cared for properly! I’m currently attending college in the mornings until around 11:00, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets past noon. Contact me about specific dates! For day sitting and walks I’m glad to take them to the pet park, to go get a pup cup, or even just play in your backyard. For overnight care, I’m happy to stay in house to keep their schedule consistent and stick to any schedule you provide.

About: I’ve grown up around many of my own pets as well as other peoples that I’ve cared for throughout my neighborhood. I’m not a party person nor do I have many friends. I love animals and always have. I love going on walks and just sitting outside for an hour throwing a ball. I like animals that think they’re a lap dog even if they’re bigger than me. I am a part time employee at Cocos Mexican restaurant. I can sit any day throughout the week Sunday-Saturday. Sitting does not affect my routine at all, I plan my weeks to fit sitting for pets I like to make sure that animals are fed and happy. I believe that if I want to eat and drink during the day, then surely my pet does too. I enjoy the sunlight and I’ll sit outside with your pet until they’re ready to come in. I’m not a party person nor do I like to be around a lot of people. I like my area to be clean so I can assure that when you return the house will be just as you left it if not cleaner.

“Patty was wonderful with our Murphy. Communication with her was easy setting up sitting services and she continued to communicate with us while we were gone. We were thrilled to know that while we were away Patty was taking care of Murphy. She treated him as if he was her own. Not only did she take care of his basic needs she played his favorite game of Fetch, till her arm almost fell off! We would definitely recommend Patty to anyone needing a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”

About: I've spent my entire life around dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. My family has always had at least one dog in the household-right now we have four-so I've experienced almost every stage of canine care. I raised my own goldendoodle, Paisle, through an extremely energetic puppy phase, and I've also cared for senior dogs, including our family cocker spaniel who faced health issues and became sensitive in his later years. I am comfortable handling both large dogs and small breeds. This lifelong, hands-on experience helps me understand each dog's unique needs and provide patient, reliable care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for multiple dogs at home. I keep a consistent schedule with feeding, walks, playtime, and individual attention, so adding another pet into my routine feels natural. I’m also a full-time student, but during the summer I’m not busy with classes, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for drop-ins, walks, or longer stays. Whether it’s daily care or weekly check-ins, I’m organized, reliable, and always make sure each pet gets the attention they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment that matches each dog’s needs and routine. I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, crate training, or preferred walking routes. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and I’m patient with dogs who are shy, high-energy, or adjusting to a new space. I also keep communication open with frequent updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that helps your dog feel as secure with me as they do with you.

“Sarah did a great job of caring for my kitties for a week. She took pictures every visit to keep me updated and connected and she was spot on in their twice a day feedings and keeping their litter boxes clean. I will definitely use her again when I need a sitter. Do not hesitate to hire her to take care of your pets. Thanks again Sarah”

About: All of my life we've had dogs as pets. I grew up with three dogs in our home and we currently have a lab/shiba inu mix as well as a mastiff mix. I love all dogs and am not afraid to get on the ground and play with them. I work a full time banking job so I am available after 5pm most days, and available most weekends. I have trained all of the dogs I've had: from learning how to play dead, speak, roll over, give high fives, and even leave a treat on the floor until I say "get it"! I love to take my dog out for walks and play fetch. I love dogs of all kinds: small ones, medium sized, and big lovable pups! We both work full-time Monday through Friday 8-5. We can drop into your home before and after work if needed to feed and let out your pet. Your pup can stay with us in our home as long as they get along with other dogs! We have a fenced in yard and an energetic pup who will keep yours company! We can also provide drop in visits 2x a day if you are more comfortable having your pup at home while you are out of town. I work full time and usually get home around 5:45-6pm. My husband also works the same hours. Morning and evenings drop-ins are doable for us! If we board, your pup would need to be ok out and about our home with other dogs, or in a kennel. I have a fenced in yard and 2 energetic and friendly pups to keep yours company. My boy dog is very young and loves to play!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl. Growing up, I would volunteer at my local animal shelter to play with and help care for the pups! I work full time in Cabot and my schedule varies day to day. Though I will always try my best to accommodate to what is needed. I will be able to come visit before & after my shifts. I am more than happy to come to your home so that your pet can stay in the comfort of their own home. I can feed/water, dispense medications, walk/take outside and clean up after them.

“HANDS DOWN the BEST sitter I've ever had for Venom. Words can't express how I feel after this week. You went above and beyond during these last few days. You will definitely be my first ask if I ever need a sitter again. Venom couldn't have been in better hands and you have no idea how much that means to me and the rest of our little family. YOU. ARE. AWESOME!”
