“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Sarah! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in great hands. Sarah was so welcoming, and her setup was perfect—my dog felt right at home and barely noticed I was gone! It’s such a relief to find someone who genuinely cares about your pet’s comfort and happiness. Highly recommend Sarah on for anyone looking for peace of mind while they’re away.”
“Our old man Chris was in great hands with Cheyanne. She sent us frequent updates and was quick to notice his goofy quirks. It's clear that she loves dogs and we would definitely leave him with her again. Bonus: Cheyanne has a huge fenced-in backyard with plenty of room for doggos to romp around!”
“Anna was the perfect person to watch my pup while I was gone. She gave me thoughtful feedback and photo updates throughout the week. I could tell in photos and when I picked up my dog, Luna m, that she had a great experience!”
“The best Rovers in Austin. They always go above and beyond with their care, and I have absolute trust in letting them watch our pup. I will always choose Cassandra and Jason first, if they are available!”
“Very sweet to my two kitties. They seemed well adjusted and calm in Natalia's home! She gave lots of updates and followed my instructions well. :) I received many cute pics! Wonderful, I would definitely recommend!”
“Took good care of my little girl on short notice! I received several photo updates and a video. This was the first time I left my girlie with someone other than family so I was nervous, but she was well taken care of. Plus, she had the enrichment of having other dogs to play with during the stay:)”
“Marissa is amazing and took such wonderful care of our little Uchi! It was our first time having someone outside of our family and friends care for him and we could not have been happier. Lots of pictures and updates and overall an amazing, seamless experience!”
“Zoe and her family was incredible with our Max. He had a huge yard to explore and they were patient with his finicky eating and quirks! Great communication and our pup came home happy and tired from his doggy vacation!”
“Asha is great at tending to pups and always made me feel aware and connected to what they were doing or how my pup was feeling. While traveling, Asha asked for all the details about my pups needs, wants, and comfort and respected those bounds throughout her stay. Bonus benefit is she made friends with Asha’s pup Carl! Appreciate all the pictures, updates, and glad she had a great stay!”
“Our little chiweenie Daisy loves staying at Chris’ house! He’s extremely attentive to her needs and makes her feel comfortable. Definitely would recommend Chris to anyone!”
About: My husband Preston grew up a dog lover with his two yellow labs, and I am a new dog lover after we got our lovely boy Jet a couple of years ago. We are responsible and would love to take care of your fur baby like it’s our own! Preston grew up dog sitting for friends and family where as I have cared for many a friends dogs throughout the years! I am full time work from home with a flexible schedule. We typically bring our dog out i around 10 am and 6pm for about an hour each as well as 20 minutes around 2 and 10 pm but are available for more frequent walks as needed in addition to a backyard, balconies and toys and splash pad! We have 1 dog (2 year old ~60lb boy named Jet). We live near a park and him twice a day for long walks and frequent the greenbelt. We also have a nice backyard for the dogs to enjoy some fresh air! We have a two floor house if your dog needs to be crated or separated for meal/bed times happy to do that as well!
“My dogs loved being over at Rose’s place again for the week! They got to spend time with her own pup Sunshine and a couple of other dogs she was watching too. One of my dogs didn’t even want to leave. Rose was even sweet enough to give them both a bath on their last day so they were smelling fresh going home.”
“Manuela was lovely! Great communication, I got videos of my pup every day, and she sent us home with treats. Phoebe is shy and takes a minute to warm up, but she was in love with Manuela by the end of her stay. Will definitely return!”
“Sarah is amazing! Super attentive, very communicative and took the best care of my pup. 100% trusted that my pup was in the best hands. Highly recommend and will absolutely use again!”
“So awesome. He was so good with my 4 month puppy. Constantly updated me with pictures and also gave me advice afterwards. You can truly see his passion for dogs. Recommend !!!”
