“Katherine is amazing!!! She wanted our bulldog over the weekend and sent me so many updates with the most adorable pictures. She came over earlier this week to meet us and our dog. She was lovely and so easy to talk to to. She responded to messages so quickly. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Jeff is great. Extremely reliable and compassionate with my dogs. He took great care of them. And left my house in the same condition as it was when I left. I highly recommend him. I have had a lot of problems with Rover in Austin and Jeff is one of the few sitters I feel comfortable leaving my dogs with”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets, homes, and property for friends and family. From dogs and cats to small rodents, animals have always been a big part of my life and my family. I started pet and house sitting at 19, and now, at 26, I’ve built years of trusted experience caring for pets with patience, attention, and reliability. As an active person, I love spending time outdoors with animals, whether that’s walking, playing, or just keeping them company and helping them stay comfortable in their routine. I also understand the importance of maintaining good control and awareness while handling pets of different sizes and personalities. I do have asthma, but it has never stopped me from being dependable, active, and fully attentive while caring for animals. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness always come first with me! Hi! I’m a South Austin pet sitter currently accepting drop-in visits and house sitting bookings. I love providing dependable, personalized care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Being local allows me to provide reliable care for nearby families while keeping up with your pet’s normal routine. I specialize in caring for cats and small dogs and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, meals, fresh water, playtime, enrichment, medication reminders, walks, or extra companionship, I’m happy to help! I prioritize communication and will always provide thoughtful updates, photos, and details so you can feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for. I’m currently flexible with my schedule and available for both drop-in visits and house sitting. Starting August 24th through December 10th, my availability will be focused on drop-in visits Friday–Monday due to my school schedule. While my weekday availability will be more limited during this time, I’ll continue providing consistent, attentive care and clear communication for every booking I accept. I also love becoming a familiar face for pets and their families, so repeat clients are always welcome! My goal is to make pet care easy and stress-free for you while giving your pets the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to become a trusted sitter for you and your pets in the South Austin area! When booking with me, you can expect reliable care, clear communication, and someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I make it a priority to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide updates, photos when requested, and make sure your pets receive attention, exercise, affection, and a clean environment while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with respect, care, and responsibility so you can feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands.

About: We would love for your dog to come and hangout and be cared for by us! We have a 4 year old dog who loves to meet new friends I currently work from home and can also offer overnight stays! I have a flexible schedule and can take your dog for walks or to the park. We have an outdoor area and walking trail at our house, so your dog will get plenty of exercise! We have a crate and dog bed that can be used.

About: Hi, I'm austin-native Amanda! I've had dogs my entire life and have been the primary caregiver for my own dog, Bug, since he was a puppy. He's now 8 years old, so I've experienced every stage of a dog's life from energetic puppy days to establishing routines and adapting to changing needs as they get older. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys playing, exploring on walks, or simply relaxing, I'm happy to tailor their care to what makes them happiest. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, shaded fenced dog park at my apartment for safe outdoor time, and during the Texas summer I plan activities around the heat with shorter walks, shade, water breaks, and indoor play when needed. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about Bug. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, dependable hands. I currently have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. My own dog, Bug, keeps me on a consistent routine, and I enjoy getting outside for walks and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. I'm available for daytime care, walks, drop-in visits, and can often accommodate evenings and weekends with advance notice. I have a secure, fenced dog park at my apartment with plenty of shade, so dogs have a safe place to go outside without spending too much time on hot pavement during the Texas summer. There's also plenty of space and toys to play with in my nice airconditioned apartment. :) I know every dog has different routines and needs, so I'm happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, crating, or any other care preferences. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll treat them with the same attention and care I give my own dog, Bug.

“Ludo cared for my pets amazingly! He is very keen to understand all the details and is super professional. Regular messages with photos/videos so my mind was at ease completely. I can really tell the pets are happy and healthy. This is probably the best pet sitter I’ve had on Rover in my 4 years of usage, easily. Thank you sooo much, Ludo! I’m sure Crumpet and Stubbs thank you as well!”

“Luna and I had the most precious and wonderful experience with Lindsey! We will 10/10 be utilizing her again in the future and anytime I travel. I requested a short notice dog sitter and found Lindsey to be extremely responsive and responsible. We set up a call the day before I was leaving and I was impressed immediately at her attention to detail and clarifying questions. During her stay with Luna, “Miss Lindsey” was extremely communicative and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Luna is very active and Lindsey took care to take Luna on wonderful longer walks and excursions each day. I could easily tell by the pics how comfortable and happy and safe Luna felt with Lindsey. When I returned home, my apartment looked better than when I left it! Luna and I give Lindsey the highest recommendation for your pet sitting/ walking needs. It was truly a fabulous connection and experience 🫶🏼🤍”

“Natalie was amazing with our dog Leo! Since it was our first time leaving him with a sitter, we were a little nervous especially because he’s usually scared around new people. But Natalie was so patient and understanding, and she did such a wonderful job with him! She did a meet and greet with him before so that he can warm up to her which we really appreciated! She kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the weekend, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We can’t wait to book with her again she truly was incredible!”

Alyssa C.

“We’ve had Crystal house sit with our goldendoodle twice and she’s been just a great help! We’ve gone on two long weekend trips and have come back to a clean house and a happy cared for pup. She sends pictures and updates, and follows any requests I’ve made. I highly recommend her! :)”

“Melissa was GREAT! She was so helpful, friendly, and always responsive. She sent us pictures of our pets while we were away. (Which helped because we missed them so much!) We came home to a happy household. She was so good, we have booked her for our next trip! Thanks Melissa!”
