About: I've taken care of several types of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors and relatives have relied on me to take care of their fur babies. I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes I'm so excited to meet your pet! I'm currently a college student so I have free time before and in between classes to drop by. I am free in the mornings before 10 a.m. and in the afternoons after 4 p.m. I also have a lot of availability on the weekends. I can help take care of your dog by taking them on walks throughout the day and by dropping in to check on them and let them outside. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets and can help in whatever way you need.

“Lauren is the best!! She was so nice, and loved on our two kitties!!! She goes above and beyond to make sure the animals are happy, and makes animal parents feel at ease while being away! Highly recommend Lauren!!”

“Simone is really gentle and caring. Akhila was very happy to see her when she came the second time. She also played with her and tired her out so Akhila took a very long and restful nap that day. We will definitely be booking Simone again.”

“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: 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.

“Megan has been incredibly patient and kind with Laifu! I highly recommend her. She always takes pictures and leaves detailed notes after each visit, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. I fully trust her with my cat.”

About: I’ve basically always had a dog in my home until recently. I raised my rescue pit from about 2 to 16. Since her passing, I have dog sat for friends and coworkers, both in my home and their homes. Any age/breed is my favorite! Whether it’s a 4 month old puppy to a senior, I will give them the same care I’d give my own pet. I work full time Monday-Thursday until 5pm and am available all day Friday-Sunday. I am available to do walks after 5pm Monday-Thursday and anytime Friday-Sunday. When I’m pet sitting I typically go straight home after work and hang out with them the rest of the evening. My favorite part of the day is coming home to a happy, wiggly butt. While doing doggie day care, you can expect routine walks, couch cuddles and playtime. In a clients home, I am there to help keep that pets routine so I will care for them in whatever way you would like me to. I’m willing to take them on walks, run around in the yard or even go on doggie play dates if they are accustomed to that. In my own home, I do live in an apartment but I have a dog park and I typically take them on walks every 4 hours or as needed. They are also allowed to sleep in my bed or feel free to bring their own. No need to be crate trained but preferred if they tend to be destructive at times. I also live close to Zilker Park if they enjoy going for walks at the trail!

“Christine did an amazing job taking care of my pup. She is great with communication and is always willing to help if she is available. My pup is less anxious when I return from trips and I know that can be attributed to the care Christine provides. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Samantha was great about telling me when she was on the way, keeping me updated, and sending me photos! She was on time and my dogs seemed to have a great time with her!!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I can remember buttt I’ve legitimately only had 2 paying customers this year! But I’ve always taken care of dogs growing up and even have a dog now! I have classes from 11-3 so any other time than that would fit into my schedule perfectly!! I’m not too picky and if I can’t do the job I’m willing to be either flexible or completely honest with you I usually just follow the orders of the parents! I have a dog too so I know how they can be 😂 I take them on walks and play with them as much as I can!

About: My name is Abigail, and I have two dachshunds names Coco and Addie. Addie is 13 years old and Coco is 12. I love my dogs and I know how stressful it feels like to have to leave your babies in someone else's care. I hope to help alleviate some of that stress and to have a good time with your pup! I am available 7 days a week for drop in visits and dog walks or trips to the park. I can also help with medication and wound care on a case by case basis. Please reach out to me if that is something you need help with! While your dogs are with me, I will give them lots of belly rubs and ear scratches, and we will have fun playing together. I will send you pictures and updates of your dogs enjoying themselves during our time together. I am looking forward to having fun with your dogs! Thank you for considering me! I require harnesses for dog walks for my safety and for the safety of your pups as well! If you do not have one of your own, I will use one of mine that I bring with me. Please let me know if your pups are reactive to other dogs or environmental factors (bicycles, skateboards, wheelchairs, etc). This will not prevent me from caring for your pup but will help me care for them better and safer! I am typically available any time on weekdays for drop in visits and walks, and am available 9am-9pm on weekends for drop in visits and walks. If you have needs outside of these hours, please message me and we’ll see if we can work something out! I like to establish trust with your pup with treats and love before we leave for our walk. I’m also happy to just play with them in the home if that is preferred.

“Isabella was amazing with Kirio! She was very caring, communicative, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She kept me updated throughout the visits, and Kirio was happy and well taken care of when I got home. She was also super friendly and reliable the whole time. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I've lived with and cared for my own and others' cats/dogs for more than a decade. I've also house sat for both cats and dogs for friends and family, from quick drop-ins to multi-week stays. I'm the guy who speaks directly to dogs and cats he passes on the street, even when I don't know their owners :) I strive to really get to know the animals I work with and always like to spend the few minutes of each visit simply sitting with and observing an animal to understand how it's feeling on any given day before going through its routine. I love building relationships with shy animals and seeing their personality blossom over time as they get to know me. Happy to send photos / videos or whatever else you need to feel confident that your pet is receiving the same level of care you would give him or her yourself if you were home. I work from home and am available most days up until 3PM. I'm happy to do check ins and walks and can also spend longer blocks of time with your pet as well. As someone who has left my own pets in the care of others, I understand that these are your 4-legged children and how important it is to follow the instructions you leave. Every animal is a unique personality with his or her preferences, needs and nuances, and it's all the more important to honor these when their most important humans are away.

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.

“Emma was so kind to my sweet babies! They were happy and well taken care of upon my arrival. Emma provided frequent updates and photos which eased my new-fur-mom anxiety. This was the first time I hired a sitter off of Rover and I’m happy to say Emma is my new go-to!”
