About: I've had a lot of pets in my life. I currently have 6 dogs and 3 cats. I have experience with reactive dogs and dog selective dogs. I deal mostly with large and extra large dogs but have owned medium and small dogs. I've worked for a boarding kennel before so I have some professional experience with that. I am also a current foster to shelter dogs so I see different breeds and personalities all the time. I work a full time job. I work nights so I'm usually available during the day early mornings and evenings on the days I work. I can always find a way to make it work. I have dogs that do not get along with other dogs or people. I am very used to a crate and rotate schedule and I'm very conscious of my dogs mood and behavior. I also have foster dogs, so I have new dogs in and out and ensuring safety is my top priority.
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life since I was 7 years old. I grew up caring for both Cocker Spaniels and German Shepherds, so I know what it takes to care for energetic, intelligent, and strong-willed dogs! I have also helped a few shelters back in Russia so I'm comfortable managing different temperaments, and I tailor my care to fit each dog’s needs. I treat every dog like they’re part of my pack, and my goal is always to make your pup feel safe, seen, and loved while you're away. I'm pretty flexible right now as my only responsibility is my school so whether it's daily drop-ins, evening walks, or weekend sitting, I’ll make sure your pup gets the attention and care they need. If you need morning times just message me and we can work something out. In your home, I aim to keep your dog’s routine consistent and stress free. I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet gets personalized care: walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship.
“Sierra is super sweet and my pup Khaleesi absolutely loved her. She’s extremely responsive and went above and beyond to come meet us before her first walk with my dog. She has great energy and will absolutely be booking again. Thank you!”
“Laura was the absolute best! She was so patient with my two big dogs who tend to have a lot of energy and big personalities! She kept me updated and wrote the best stories that truly captured perfectly what the pup would say if he could talk ha! Needless to say, I’ll be using her help in the future!”
About: I understand that we live in a busy world so when you book me I make sure to treat your dog(s) like my own! I always feel accomplished when I bring a dog home that has been worn out, and I'm always patient with dogs that are not so easy on walks (big dogs, reactive dogs, dogs who are anxious and dont really like walks). I have lived in Austin for 22 years and I am familiar with many neighborhoods and parks so I am able to take your pup on longer, more mentally stimulating walks rather than just walking around the same block again and again! I appreciate you choosing me to spend time with your pup(s) and I'm am excited to explore Austin with your fur babies!
About: I’ve taken care of puppies to senior dogs, as well as kittens to senior cats. I have experience giving medications to pets as well. I also have experience bathing, walking, and feeding. I’m currently working full time remotely at home. I have the flexibility to leave home to check on any fur babies when I need to. I have two kittens and a senior dog. They are very playful but are scared of bigger dogs at the moment. We are working on them seeing there is nothing to fear of.
About: I've taken care of many animals in the course of years. From guinea pigs to cats and dogs to fishes and farm animals. I love animals and love learning about them. I work a flex schedule at a warehouse where I can plan my own schedule, rest assured I can work around different schedules to make sure to take care of the pets and have them as higher priority I have many pets at home. I have cats, dogs and chickens. If your pet isn't keen to being around other animals I will keep them indoors with me and take them out on a leash for the bathroom or to walk around away from the other animals. Your pets are the priority, I can care for them from early in the morning to late in the day and do overnight stays
About: I reside in South West Austin. My experience includes puppies, adult and senior dogs. I have experience with giving medication, resource guarding, food aggression, and reactive dogs. I also have experience with cats as well through my own two. I’m currently working remote so plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am completely open on weekends and weekdays. I prefer to do house sitting or boarding. I like to maintain an active lifestyle which includes plenty of walking and playing. I do not have a fenced yard so if boarding, I will need to walk your dog. I am right by a huge park so plenty of room to roam and sniff! I have a large livingroom so if crating is needed then no problem! I personally prefer against crating unless absolutely necessary. I like to treat them as if they are my own pet! Lot’s of cuddles and access to the couch and bed. I send plenty of updates and photos for each day.
About: I’ve taken care of all of my family members’ pets as well as friends’ pets, I’m extremely patient and loving towards animals, plus I genuinely enjoy walking dogs! My current job is extremely flexible which allows me to easily fit pet care into my schedule and give pets the attention, walks and care they need I can follow instructions easily, if you let me know how you want your pet cared for that’s exactly what I will do with the utmost patience
About: Being a bilingual pet sitter allows me to connect easily with both pets and their owners. I have a natural ability to bond with animals, making them feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. Each pet is unique, and I adapt to their needs—whether they crave playtime, affection, or quiet companionship. I carefully observe their behavior, ensuring they feel at ease. Beyond feeding and cleaning, I focus on trust and security. The best moments are when a once-shy pet finally warms up to me. Pet sitting isn’t just a job; it’s about creating meaningful connections with with your pets. 🐾💕 Being a musician gives me the flexibility to dedicate time to caring for pets. My schedule allows me to be available when pet owners need me most, whether it’s for daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute care. This flexibility means I can adapt to each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive the attention, companionship, and care they need. Whether it’s taking a dog on a midday walk, spending quality time with a shy cat, or simply being there for feeding and playtime, I love being able to offer reliable care. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my life, and I cherish every moment of it. As someone with a flexible schedule, I provide pet care both in my home and in clients’ homes. Since I currently don’t have a pet, I can welcome pets into my home, where they have space to feel comfortable and enjoy my yard. This setup allows me to give them dedicated attention in a calm environment. At the same time, I understand that some pets feel safest in their familiar surroundings. My flexibility allows me to meet them in their own home, keeping their routine intact and ensuring they feel at ease. Whether in my home or theirs, I prioritize their comfort, care, and happiness.
“Tutu and his wife have been awesome with Sparky! They are reliable walkers, friendly, and communicate clearly about expectations and meeting his needs. Thank you for being available to help walk him last minute this past weekend!”
“Christine is a dog whisperer and truly amazing human being. She is so dependable and responsive, which is a big win and important to us when we leave town. She takes such good care of our dog Schlappen like he’s her very own. Thank you Christine for all you do! ❤️”
About: Howdy! :) I’m Skylar! I’m a kindergarten teacher and currently pursuing my master’s in Special Education at UT Austin. While completing my online program, I’m spending my time babysitting, pet sitting, and traveling, which means I have a super flexible schedule and plenty of availability for your pets! I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals, both personally and professionally. Growing up on my uncle’s cattle ranch, I gained hands-on experience caring for all kinds of furry friends. I’ve also cared for plenty of smaller pets, including dogs, cats, and hamsters. My background has given me experience with a wide variety of animals, personalities, and needs. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and experienced in creating a safe, nurturing environment. I’ll bring that same care and attention to your pets, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I absolutely love animals and would be thrilled to care for yours. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry (or feathered!) family! 🐾 I’m currently pursuing my master’s in Special Education through UT Austin, and my program is fully online. Because I’m not working a traditional job right now, my schedule is extremely flexible! I’m available throughout the day, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and pet care. I’m also able to give pets plenty of attention and stick closely to their normal routines. I do travel periodically while completing my degree, but I plan my trips around my pet-sitting commitments and only accept bookings when I know I’ll be fully available. I’d love to work with you and find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs! 🐾 Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities! 🐾 I’m big on communication and will send plenty of photos and regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. For walks: I bring my own poop bags, but ask that you provide your pet’s usual collar/harness, leash, and any other equipment they need (such as dog shoes). Before our first walk, we’ll go over your pet’s routine, personality, and any safety expectations — including how they do around other dogs, whether they’re comfortable drinking water while out, and anything else I should know. We can stick to a familiar walking route, visit a dog park if you’re comfortable with that, or add games like fetch and playtime when your pup needs more energy burned than a walk alone. For boarding in my home: I have a fenced-in yard, access to a neighborhood dog park, two friendly cats, and a 15-lb fluffy white dog who absolutely loves other animals. I’ll always take your pet’s personality and comfort level into account when deciding how much interaction they have with my pets. For house sitting: I treat your home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine — keeping things clean, respecting your space, and following your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I especially love house sitting because I can work on my online master’s program while keeping your pet company, taking plenty of breaks for walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and for you to feel completely in the loop the whole time! ❤️🐶🐱
About: I have had a wide range of different animals since I was a child and had a deep love for most of them! I have experience in pet training my own dogs and friends dogs too. I currently work as a freelance contractor where I will work in person or work on the computer. I also have my own vehicle and am happy to be a doggie chauffeur. Important note: My Rover rates are reflecting standard pet care services. If your pets require extra love and care or cannot be alone for up to 4 hours this will be considered as a constant care services and rates will be doubled. I currently live in an apartment now that doesn't have a fenced in yard but neighborhoods and a dog park close by. Ideal situation for me would be to either pick your dog up for long walks and bring back home or to take care of your pet at your home but I am flexible.
