Dog Walking Barton Creek

About: I grew up with a dog until I was 18 (Westie - Minnie) and then after college was adopted by a wonderful rescue sphynx (PyeWacket). Over then next 20 or so years I have had 4 sphyx cats (PyeWacket, Forty Two, Tesla and Cairo) and 1 Lyikoi (Cypher). Over the last year my house has had 4 puppies (from 8 weeks), 2 turtles, 2 Guinea pigs, 2 full size dogs 6 cats and multiple fish. I also often house sit for a very smart chihuahua named Mazie. Currently in between jobs so my schedule is fairly open. Like early and late walks due to the heat but open for anything. Open to late night feedings if needed. I treat your animals like they were my own. Love to play, hang out and what ever your little one needs. Need to make sure they know they are loved.

About: I grew up with dogs and now have a senior cavalier who’s truly my world. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m comfortable with all ages, from high-energy puppies to seniors who need a slower, more gentle approach. I tailor walks to fit each pet's personality and will always prioritize safety. I currently have a very flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate your pet's routine, whether it’s weekdays or weekends. For repeat bookings, I can accommodate last-minute needs due to familiarity with the pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During drop-in visits, I carefully follow all instructions and maintain your household routines to ensure consistency. I take time to understand your pet’s habits, including feeding guidelines, treats, furniture rules, and any medical or behavioral considerations. Whether your dog requires crating or a more flexible routine, I'm happy to accommodate. I aim to create a calm, safe, and familiar environment while you’re away.

About: Dog owner for 15 years, professional treat-giver, and expert belly-rub provider. I'm comfortable administering medications and have many years experience with puppies of all ages. I will care for your pup like they're part of my family. I work from home so it's very easy for me to take your pup on as many walks as needed. I also have a huge backyard for lots of games of fetch. I have a dog of my own, so doggie care is ingrained into my lifestyle. My backyard is fully fenced, and I have a crate available if requested. I’ll always follow your preferences and your dog’s individual needs to help them feel comfortable and at home. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and even the bed if that’s okay with you! My home is very small-dog friendly, as I have a dog and cats of my own. For everyone’s comfort and safety, your dog should be cat-friendly.

“Courtney is always amazing! But this last time she let our girl out she went above and beyond for us! I forgot to put our key out for courtney and she did not hesitate to come to my work to get the key from me. So grateful to have someone I trust let our Greta out!”

About: I grew up with a wide variety of animals but especially cats and dogs. I’ve been dog sitting and walking as a side hustle since freshman year of high school in 2016. I moved out and got certified as a wag walker in early 2023. It’s been a great side hustle over the years and I’ve picked up additional skills like training and grooming. I also have two cats as an adult. What has changed currently is leaving my full time job in hopes of connecting with things I love like animals. My parents no longer live in state and I miss my dog friends. I make my own schedule and most of my income is currently from pet care. Open to odd jobs and odd hours, genuinely love the work. I have diagnosed ocd so if you give me a list I will stick to it. I try to go above and beyond when it comes to care and that extra step. Bonding with the animal and understanding their specific personality is highly important to me.

“Kristin has been absolutely amazing with my dog Zoey! She has been so patient and gentle with my stubborn girl, and even went above and beyond once her walk was over. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my girl! Will def recommend and will be using again!”

About: I’ve spent years around pets and genuinely enjoy taking care of them. I grew up with 2 massive English Mastiffs, lazy cats and a chihuahua so I can handle anything.

You’ll always get updates so you know your pet is in good hands. I’m a full time student with a flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the day for reliable and consistent pet care. Whether your pet needs midday visits, regular walks, or extended attention, I can easily work around their routine to keep them cared for. I treat your home and your pet with respect. I follow your pet’s routine, provide regular walks, feeding, and attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away.

“First time using Rover, and I could tell at our meet and greet that Norah was the perfect match for our energetic terrier and pitbull. She had a very calm and confident demeanor around our dogs, and could read their body language like no one else has. Norah took care of our guys for a week, and shared detailed daily report card with tons of cute pics. I knew they were in good hands, and did not worry at all. She is very knowledgeable on dog behavior, which helped with a few issues we are having. Appreciated her loving yet firm manner to keep our guys happy and stimulated while gone. She was also quick to respond to my messages. Thanks Norah! Opie and Leo can't wait to play with you again!”

“So grateful for Sydne! She was super sweet with my old doggies, she communicated everything we needed to know (and more!), and she is so personable! I'll definitely use her anytime we are away. :)”

About: I have loved animals since I was a little girl, especially dogs. When I was growing up my dream dog was a pit bull. My dream came true. I have a beautiful pitbull named Maui. Everyone would always tell me that getting a pitbull was one of the worst dogs you can own. But I believe that there is no worst dog. Every dog has their own personality just like humans. It all depends on how they are raised. I try to take care of any dog the best I could. I would treat them as if they were a little kid. I would play with them, I wouldn’t neglect them. I would feed them, pet them, scratch their belly’s. I would want them to be the happiest doggo when I’m taking care of them. I’m currently in between jobs. I’m new to Austin from California. As of right now I am available 7 days a week, anytime of the day. I make sure I know all of the animals needs. I currently have 2 cats and a little weenie dog and all of their needs are different. Each animal has different needs and I strive to make them feel the most comfortable.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my entire life and spent many years in college volunteering at a local animal shelter. I have two cats currently, Ollie and Enzo! I love all breeds and have experience with varied levels of socialization and needs. I want to make you feel confident that your pet is in good hands and value strong communication, trust, and reliability. I work from home 3 out of 5 days of the week, so my days are flexible! I can drop by for home visits or take your pet on a walk no problem. I’m more than happy to work with your schedule and what suits your pet best. I value trust and safety and will treat your pet as if they are my very own! When I visit your home, I promise to abide by all pet care and home rules set in place. I promise to maximize my time with your pet by providing cuddles, play time, exercise, anything! I'm happy to take care of any house chores needed as well while you're away. I take care of your pets and home as if they're my own.

About: Hola everyone! My name is Lyana, and I wanted to share my wonderful experience as a pet and house sitter companion. As someone who adores animals and has a knack for taking care of homes, this role has been a perfect fit for me. I've had the pleasure of caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and even some exotic animals. Each furry or feathery friend has brought so much joy into my life.

It's incredibly fulfilling to know that I'm making a positive impact on their lives while their family is away. In addition to the joy of spending time with animals, house sitting allows me to explore different neighborhoods and communities. I've had the chance to discover beautiful parks, scenic hiking trails, and charming local spots, all while ensuring the safety and security of the homes I'm entrusted with. It's like having a mini adventure every time I take on a new house sitting assignment. I enjoy engaging in stimulating conversations with the pets or providing a calm and peaceful environment through yoga and meditation, I strive to create a positive and enriching experience for both the animals and the home. Being a sunrise person, I love starting my day bright and early, ready to tackle any tasks that come my way. This allows me to provide the utmost care and attention to the pets and house, ensuring that everything runs smoothly during the owners' absence. Outside of my pet and house sitting duties, I have a passion for baking, hiking, traveling, and freelance work. These interests keep me inspired and motivated, and I'm always eager to share my experiences and tips with others. If you're in need of a reliable, responsible, and compassionate pet and house sitter companion, I would be honored to be of service. Rest assured that I will treat your pets and home with the utmost care and respect, providing them with the love and attention they deserve. Kindly reach out to me to discuss your needs. I'm currently available to house/pet sit, and dog walking most days. We are flexible with time & days! Reach out to discuss any details for my services offered. I follow the routine of your home. My love and care for the pets is to always welcome them and watch them joyfully interact and be fully engaged in their world :)

About: I've dog sat since I was 13 for neighbors and friends. I'm extremely reliable and love animals. I've also taken care of cats as well. I've had a dog of my own since 2017 and she is first priority always. Spending time with her is very important to me and giving proper care.

I have a fenced in yard and walk my dogs every day to ensure they have enough exercise. And I work from home so they get plenty of attention.
