Pet Sitting Bouldin

“Kiersten is so great! My kitties were so comfortable so quickly with her, which is difficult to do because they can be pretty anxious and scared. The pictures and updates were great. Looking forward to having her watch them again :)”

“Julia did a wonderful job keeping my cat company while I was away for 2 weeks! She was very communicative and provided check-in pictures daily. Also super convenient that she lives in my complex so highly recommend if you live in east downtown Austin!”

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.

“Kirren was absolutely wonderful! For the first time in years, I was able to go on vacation without feeling anxious about leaving my cat behind. My cat needs a lot of attention and twice-daily medication, so finding someone trustworthy was essential. Kirren went above and beyond—providing extra care, attention, and thoughtful updates that truly put me at ease. She was incredibly communicative, and to my surprise, my cat instantly took to her—something that’s never happened with a stranger before. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Priscilla was reliable and friendly taking care of Ranger during our work week :)”

“Arantxa always goes above expectations, she’s set such a high standard it’s such a bummer when I can’t book her. She sends the best photos and updates and that are so adorable and funny. She’ll bring in packages, tell you if something is wrong or out of the ordinary at home, and help out in so many ways with pet care and more. She’s so reliable and trustworthy I am always at ease knowing she is caring for my pets. She’s so reliable genuinely loves animals, the best pet sitter I’ve ever had!!”

“Lillian was great and easy to work with. She was very punctual with her drop-ins, and we felt our dog got expert level attention. Would definitely use again!”

About: Hey there! I’m Kristin. I moved here from Austin TX earlier this year to explore life in a new state close to the mountains. I now live on SoBo next to Platt Park and work in the software space. I would love to take your pup for a walk in your neighborhood or host them at my apartment while I work remotely! My experience includes 12+ week-old puppies, blind/deaf dogs, diabetic dogs, and happy healthy ones too. Since I work remotely full time I’m available for: • Drop-ins from 8am to 8pm • Weekend walks any time (For boarding we’ll take longer walks on trails if you’re comfortable with it) • Weekday walks around 12pm or 5:30pm - 8pm • Dog-boarding depending on the temperament/house-training skills - (apartment living makes this trickier) • Doggy day care - hang with me while I work from home! TLDR; your dog will be in great hands! I work from home so I’ll be around the majority of the day Monday - Friday. If you don’t see a certain option open for the days you need, feel free to ask anyways and we will see if we can make it work! For boarding: I live next to a neighborhood that I can take your dog out to for walks and potty breaks, and we are right by some parks so I could take your dog to those to explore (leashed).

“Camryn took great care of our pups, including a 9 month old puppy and 13.5 year old senior. She made sure they were exercised, played with them plenty, fed them dinner and refilled their water before leaving. They were happy and sleepy when we got back!”

Safeena W.

“Taylor was so great with Poe & followed the care instructions to a tee. I appreciate the that she also took the trash out! Really went the extra mile & Poe was so so so happy when I got back. Didn't even know I was gone!”

Priya V.

“Aryanna took such great care of our kitties! She leaves very detailed information about her visits, takes pictures and videos, and is punctual. 100% recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up around and with dogs and love them all. I’ve cared for them in many ways! :) Family members, friends and neighbors have always allowed me to help with their loving animals! I am currently a college student but my schedule is very flexibile and I am open to working with anyone on anything! I will always be honest with you and treat your pets like my own :) I can provide the best care to my abilities and I am open to any circumstances that may be necessary to provide comfortable care for you and your pets.

“The best care and communication you could ask for!”

“Kailey was wonderful with our three Cavachons—CJ (15), Tre (3), and Loki (2)! She was reliable, caring, and gave them plenty of attention while we were away. She popped in once a day for a few days and twice on one of the days, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our dogs were being well taken care of. We really appreciated her communication and would definitely 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 grew up in homes with animals of all kinds and even had the privilege of loving and training some of my own furry friends. I’m patient and adaptable to different needs from animal to animal. I only sit at animals homes currently because I find they do better in their own environments. Overall, I’m very open to the specific needs of the pet and parent. I work from home and my work days are mostly flexible which allows me to give as much time and attention as needed to each animal. I prefer to inquire and understand what normal is for you and your pet and adjust to this during my sit with them. I tend to keep things as normal and calm as possible for the animal.

“Itzel was amazing! She took care of Simba well and was very quick to respond to my messages. I had put incorrect time for a visit by mistake but she was very understanding and cooperative. Will definitely recommend her service!”

Susmita S.

“Elizabeth was wonderful. She spent some time with my dog and I for a meet n greet first and was flexible in her schedule to make it work for what I/Rally needed. She was consistently communicating and with all sorts of details to show she was paying attention to Rally and following the ground rules I laid out.”

Jake C.

“Valerie has been my go to sitter for my cat! She is patient with my cat, communicative, caring, and reliable. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”

About: I've never met a dog or cat I can't win over. I meet them at their pace, never pushing unwanted interaction onto them. I have volunteered and fostered for multiple shelters. I have experience administering medicine, grooming, and bathing. Currently working part-time, so I'm relatively free to look after pets. I am also a morning person, and I don't mind getting up early to check in on and walk someone's baby, especially with how hot it is right now. I will follow your guidance on your dog or cat's care in your household to a T. I want to alleviate the stress an animal may feel meeting a new person by sticking to their usual routine.
