About: Dog mom to one happy pup but have grown up with dogs since I was a kid. Love taking my dog on multiple walks a day, playing fetch, and giving them lots of love. My partner and I work from home on flexible schedules, so have a lot of availability to walk pups! We love going on walks throughout the day and would love to take an extra dog or two along with us. We can provide am, pm or nightly care any day of the week depending on your needs. We can come to your home and pick up your pup for walking and drop-in pet sitting services. Can also administer medications. We provide pet sitting, daily walks as well as drop in services.

About: In high school I briefly volunteered at Keller HSNT and then pivoted to volunteering at a no-kill, nonprofit animal shelter called Operation Kindness where I was trained to properly look after both dogs and cats! I volunteered there for several years and I was able to walk the dogs there too, learning how to provide them a calm walk and to deescalate their stress in response to their environment. Additionally, I have my own two sweet dogs back home and I always take them on long walks and adore caring for them. Since they’re my family’s dogs, I don’t consider caring for them as professional pet care experience, but I do want to mention that my love for Buster and Mojo has taught me a lot of the basics! Although I’ve taken both of them on walks together before, I would prefer to walk one dog at a time when it comes to other people’s dogs, given that I am less familiar with their temperaments and I want to ensure that everything goes smoothly! Other than that, I absolutely loveeee animals and I enjoy spending time with them! I’ve looked after several of my friends’ dogs before and have been paid to walk some of my neighborhood dogs in high school, as well as dog and cat-sit for them! As a sophomore at UT, classes and student org events are what primarily make up my schedule. I’m usually pretty free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, because I have classes until 10am those days. On Tuesdays and Thursdays however, my time is more limited because I’m generally unavailable until late afternoon on those days. Caring for a pet at a client’s home includes being incredibly knowledgeable of my client’s boundaries regarding their home, as well as communicating important parts of their pet’s routine. Safety is incredibly essential, and I know that my time and attention towards their pet is crucial: I have never allowed myself to pay more attention to my phone or other things when what I should be paying the greatest level of attention to is the client’s pet.

“Lindsay was SO good to my sweetheart while I was away. He was clearly loved and well cared for, and that meant the world to me. She was very thorough and consistent with check-ins and pictures. I felt very confident having her as my catsitter. ❤️”

About: Do you have a dachshund that you’re nervous to leave in someone else’s care because of how unique they are? I completely understand. I was the same way with mine. Dachshunds have their own little quirks, and their backs require some extra care. I know how important it is to have someone who understands how to properly pick them up and why you don’t want them constantly jumping off beds or couches. My home has stairs leading up to both, so they can get where they want to go without putting unnecessary stress on their backs. My husband and I also work from home full-time with flexible jobs, so your Velcro pup won’t be left alone. I’m able to give them lots of attention, hang out with them throughout the day, and take them outside as many times as they need. 5–6 times a day? No worries! I’ve watched multiple dachshunds for friends I’ve met through our local dachshund meetup, and I’ve really enjoyed getting to know each of them and their little personalities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dachshund with someone else, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I decided to offer my services on Rover because I know what it’s like to be new to town and not have someone you trust to watch your dog. If you’re looking for someone who already understands dachshunds and all their little quirks, I’d love to meet you and your pup! My husband and I work from home every day, so we are at the beck and call of your pup! Whatever they need, I can provide: all day cuddles, potty outside breaks, mid-day walks… you name it. I have a knack for reading animal behavior- dogs have very clear warning signs when they’re on edge, shy, excited, etc. I will make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable and avoid any situations that may cause any doubt

“Kate was an absolute gem as a cat sitter for my cat, Sam! From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. She took the time to get to know Sam’s personality and made sure he was well-cared for, playing with him, providing meals on time, and even giving him extra cuddles. Sam was relaxed and happy when I returned, which showed just how much Kate's attention and care meant to him. I couldn't have asked for a better person to look after my furry friend! Highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving cat sitter.”

“Heidi did a wonderful job caring for my kitty while I was away for a week! She went above and beyond what I expected and will definitely be re-booking her again when I travel!”

About: I’ve spent the past couple years learning the ins and outs as a first-time dog owner to a long haired dachshund. Experience with puppies, dogs in heat, and post-spayed care. I am a part-time nurse and full time nurse practitioner student. I am typically available for weekend boarding and drop-in visits after 5 PM! I live in an apartment with a spacious dog park backing up to Lady Bird Trail! Can accommodate a crate. Pets are allowed on the furniture at my place.

About: I love all animals! I have a black cat and we love to go on long walks together. When I am watching your BBs I love to take them on day trips/hikes/dog parks/swimming if you are interested!! I just want your family to be as happy and comfortable as possible! I am a graduate student and only work a couple days a week, so I have lots of time to be with ur BBs. I usually take dogs out 5 times a day on long walks! I make sure they get lots of exercise! As I said I’m home days and will make sure ur bb is safe! I really make sure they are happy and healthy! I also have experience with aggressive dogs and A lot of respect for people training and supporting aggressive dogs.

“Isabel was absolutely fantastic with our six-month-old puppy, Oliver! This was our first time leaving him with someone new, and our original sitter fell through at the last minute. I reached out to Isabel on Rover just two days before we needed someone, and she responded within about 20 minutes and was able to help us out. From the very beginning, Isabel made us feel completely at ease. We FaceTimed beforehand, and she asked incredibly thoughtful questions—especially since Oliver is still a puppy and in the middle of training. She asked what commands we use, exactly how we say them, what his routine looks like around meals, and other questions I honestly wouldn’t have even thought to bring up with a sitter. When she came over, she let us know as soon as she arrived and afterward sent a detailed update with photos. She told us when she fed Oliver, what games they played, how he behaved, and even shared thoughtful observations about his personality. I really appreciated how attentive and engaged she was rather than simply stopping by to let him out and feed him. Most importantly, I came away from the experience feeling incredibly confident trusting Isabel with Oliver. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches and takes the responsibility seriously. All of her amazing reviews make complete sense after experiencing it firsthand. Isabel is a 10/10, and we would absolutely book her again. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve looked after pets with a variety of personalities and needs, from energetic pups who love long walks and playtime to more relaxed or independent cats who just want a calm, comfortable environment. I understand how important it is to keep your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away, and I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, getting in plenty of exercise, or giving extra cuddles and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also very communicative, so you can expect regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels secure and loved, and that you feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I work 5 days a week in office, so I am available for drop ins in the mornings/ evenings M-F and all day on weekends! I make sure to respect your space and leave your home clean in tidy! Available to drop in during the week and stay overnight on weekends! Guaranteed walks/ exercise for your pet if needed including mental enrichment exercises and light training if needed!

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a young child. Always having dogs and cats of my own to care for, my friends and family have always relied on me to sit their fur babies when they are away. Recently I pet sat for a litter of puppies and a momma doggie. I had to make specialty food gruel for the puppies and monitor momma to make sure she was healthy. I helped the puppies nurse and always made sure they had fresh bedding (since they poop all over). I also had to care for another male dog in the same house and make sure he was kept away from the room that the momma and puppies were in. It was such an amazing experience and I would love to do it again. I also volunteer at the Austin Animal Shelter (Austin Pets Alive), where I work in the parvovirus unit working with extremely sick puppies. I administer oral medication, clean up their poop, do daily feedings and have experinece in IV treatments. I also volunteer in the cat unit helping sick and injured cat rehabilitate giving oral and IV medication, cleaning wounds and feedings. My belated kitty, Morrisis, was a senior cat, who in his later years, became paralyzed from the waist down. I did daily physical therapy with him, built him specialized litter boxes and a set of wheels to get around with. I also had to clean his wounds and poop off of his rear end, since he no longer had control of his bladder. I administered CBD to help with pain management. There is a special place in my heart for sick and disabled animals and I give them just as much love as every animal deserves, which is all of my love. I my free time, I foster stray cats in my neighborhood, taking them to their first vet appointments, getting shots and managing any sickness they may have. I foster them myself until I can find a suitable forever home for them. My work schedule is usually 5 hours a day. This allows me to do Drop In services and walks before my full time job, as well as multiple times afterwards. Throughout the week or weekend I am more than happy to house sit and give lots of attention and care to your fur babies morning, afternoon, evening and over night. When I am in my clients home, I allow supervised playtime outside and will keep your pup entertained. In the heat of Texas summers I will minimize outside play time and play with your pup more inside so they do not get over heated, unless you request otherwise. I do 2-3 walks a day depending on the dogs breed, age and anynhealth concerns. I'll take them around the neighborhood to stretch their legs or on a local hiking trail/ park if they are a more active dog. I keep a close inventory on any medications the animal may have and stick to the correct time for administering medication/ wound treatment. Meal time is usually on a schedule, unless you free feed, and I will always make sure there is cold fresh water available for your fur babies (cats and dogs alike). For kitties, I will engage them in playtime and try to get out their zoomies so they do not tear up furniture, unless they are sick or injured.
