House Sitting in Chestnut, Austin, TX

“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”

Lauren S.

“Very responsive, very responsible and easy to work with. My fur kids were well cared for and I will be booking with Erica again. Highly recommend!”

Henry L.

“We had a wonderful experience with Amanda! She followed the instructions we left, kept our dog on his normal schedule (which was super important to us), and sent us pictures and regular updates. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”

Sarah M.

“Mo was awesome with our old dog Luke. They communicated well, were friendly, and professional. I'd totally recommend them for house and senior dog sitting.”

“Arantxa is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She sends the sweetest updates consistently, communicates everything, and helps out with the unexpected if it occurs while you’re away. My A/C went out while I was out of town, and she helped by replacing the filter and letting the repair man in. My pets adore her and I’m just so relieved to be able to rely on her when I travel. She keeps a tidy space and is so sweet and considerate. I book her whenever possible!!”

“Sierra was great with my two cats Sandy and Jon Jon! She sent pictures daily and left our apartment clean. I was a little worried because Jon Jon can be scared of new people but he warmed up very quickly. Sierra is great!”

Dara S.

“Celia was great! She took Baits on tons of walks and was so patient with him. Baits is generally nervous after we have been gone and he seemed totally calm!”

Jessica K.

“If you’re looking to travel and leave your fur babies in good hands, Ian is the person to trust! He cared for mine like they were his own, giving me the peace of mind to truly enjoy my trip. I’ll definitely be booking him again in the future!.”

“Woody was an absolutely excellent house/dogsitter for our resident pup and foster dog. Their pure enthusiasm and affection for our pups was apparent from our first meet-and-greet, and we felt beyond comforted and relieved to know the dogs were getting so much love and attention while we were away. Woody provided updates with just the right frequency each day, took the dogs on multiple walks a day (a HUGE plus for us), and was so diligent and thoughtful about making sure our instructions/requests were fulfilled -- even checked in with us when our foster's ears were inflamed to ask if we'd like them to help administer medication, which was super thoughtful and appreciated. House was totally clean and pristine when we returned! Completely lovely person to chat with as well, and we look forward to hosting them again next time we're headed out of town!”

Emma V.

“Matt was so great to work with! He was incredibly nice and communicative, and I could tell our boy was in safe hands. He sent frequent pics and updates. Would definitely book again.”

Juliette R.

“Grace was amazing as always! She’s very communicative and genuinely cares about animals. She gave me peace of mind while I was away by sending continuous updates and pictures! She took great care of my home, and I’ve already booked with her for my next outing ♥️”

“Super responsive and followed directions to a T. He’s also great about sending photos and updates throughout the stay, which puts our minds at ease. Would definitely recommend Parker.”

Jennifer R.

“Katelyn was so great with our senior dog! She was patient with her special needs and gave so many updates. Aside from taking great care of our dog, she left our apartment so clean and tidy! We would definitely have her back any time we’re out of town!”

“Samantha was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter for our fur baby Phoebe. She has such love for animals and it defiantly shows! She sends lots of pictures and detailed updates multiple times a day. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for animals of all kinds — from dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, cattle, and small mammals. I grew up surrounded by pets and livestock, and my love for animals led me to earn a degree in biology and work professionally as a wildlife biologist, where I cared for reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Whether it’s walking an energetic pup, checking in on a shy cat, or providing overnight care for multiple pets, I take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. I’m attentive, patient, and confident handling Right now, I have lots of open availability while the government is shut down, so I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, and house sitting throughout the day! Once things open back up, I’ll still be available for morning, evening, and weekend bookings. I’m happy to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. With a background in biology and years of hands-on animal care experience, I’m comfortable recognizing behavioral cues and responding calmly in any situation. I always keep pets on-leash when outside of secure areas, double-check gates and doors, and maintain open communication with owners through regular updates and photos. You can trust that your pets will be cared for responsibly, compassionately, and with attention to every detail.

“Jewel was an amazing caretaker for Bella. She was a clear communicator, showed great care for Bella, and left my home spotless at her departure. More importantly Bella loved her and was very happy to spend time with her.”
