About: I've always loved animals and had pets at home. I began fostering cats and dogs when I was about 10, researching the needs of different ages, breeds, and conditions. To this day I learn as much as I can to better care for your pets and provide the best sitting service possible. I am experienced with seniors, neonates, and disabled companions. In addition to being an experienced animal care technician, I’m also certified in animal control, basic life support, and first aid. Family and friends can always rely on me for advice, as well as sitting, boarding, and exercise services! While I am a full-time university student, I have plenty of time to care for your companions! I'm available for walks and sittings evenings and nights on weekdays and all day on weekends. When caring for your pets in your home, my top priority is their well-being and your peace of mind. I maintain open communication with you, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. With a commitment to building trust, I strive to create a comfortable and loving environment for your pets while you are away.
About: I have been caring for pets since childhood, growing up surrounded by animals. In my teenage years, I volunteered at animal shelters and continued through college, even working with penguins at an aquarium. My family always had both dogs and cats, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, ages, and personalities. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to take pets out for walks, play, and provide attention throughout the day. My partner is in the Air Force and often has some flexibility in the evenings, so he’s also able to help with pet care—whether that’s walks, playtime, or giving your dog some extra exercise. We have a small fenced yard and two sweet dogs (plus cats) for companionship. Your pet will have a safe, friendly environment and can enjoy plenty of playtime.
About: Hello! My husband, Shawn, and I love dogs - we have two little rescues of our own and have 10 years of experience dog walking and sitting! We moved to TX last year and now that we have a better lay of the land, are looking to get more involved with dog care, like we were before we moved. Our most recent experience includes helping out with some drop in visits in our neighborhood and animal sitting for 14 pets on a farm! Looking forward to getting to know your furry family members ❤️ As dog parents of two rescues, we are very familiar with each dog having their own needs and sensitivities. We can't wait to get to know your dog and give them lots of love and care! I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. Shawn is starting his own business so his hours are also flexible! We are usually around on weekends too. We are familiar with puppies and older dogs, dog walking, drop in visits, administering medicine, crate training, playtime, and more! Our two dogs are rescues so we understand that each dog has their own needs!
“Laura Rose was great - friendly and helpful. Laura was very good with our dogs, and they and our house were well taken care of. We appreciated receiving photos while we were gone. A positive experience for me and the dogs.”
About: I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I have 2 cats and I raised 3 huskies. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. My husband and I work from home, so your fur baby will always have love, attention and care 24/7 and will be treated as family. I have a large locked fenced yard and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. All pets sleep inside the home. If needed, we can crate.
“Kristi was the perfect house and pet sitter! She kept in constant contact with us, and we felt very confident about how happy our pets were. We returned to find our pets healthy and calm and our house very well taken care of. I highly recommend Kristi to anyone!”
About: I am a mature longtime Pet Sitter with over 20 years pet services experience. I’m reliable, caring, honest and great with all animals! I love being of service to others and walking dogs and pet sitting is something I absolutely love to do. I’d been providing pet sitting in the Austin area for many years and recently have been a ranch sitter in Comfort, Texas since December 2024. I have a handful of loyal clients that have trusted me with their beloved animals for over 10 years. Let me be your companion's trusted companion while you are away or busy at work! I am currently ranch sitting in Comfort, Texas and have plenty of time during the day for drop ins and dog walking. In August 2025 I will be looking for more overnight pet sitting opportunities in the Texas Hill Country. When I am taking care of pets I take the utmost care to be mindful of the animals needs as well as follow the owners instructions to the letter as best I can.
