Rickey was attentive and great with my dog! He was communicative, asked any questions he needed if something wasn’t clear, and Bobbi Jo was well cared for when we got back!

About: I have been around pets my whole life, but I’ve been taking care of them on my own for about 2 years. I also have personal experience owning a dog, a cat and two guinea pigs. I have cared for pets of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets that need extra attention. Every pet I have taken care of has always been in good hands I’m a college student in the AFROTC program at UT Austin. My weekdays can get pretty busy with classes, but Mondays and Fridays I’m mostly free. I also have some breaks between classes Tuesday through Thursday where I can stop by for pet care. Fridays and weekends are usually wide open, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they need I don’t bring pets into my own home, but I make sure they’re comfortable and cared for in their own space. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep up with feeding and walks, give them playtime and attention, and make sure they feel safe while you’re away.

About: I’ve had pets for most of my life, so taking care of animals is something I’m very comfortable with. I’ve been around all kinds of pets, from energetic and playful to shy or needing a little extra patience. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits really easily into my routine because I work fully remote and am home throughout the day. That gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and just keeping pets company. Since I’m home often, I’m able to give pets attention and keep an eye on how they’re doing. I do my best to make pets feel comfortable and at home. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication if needed, and any routines their pet is used to. I also like to learn about each pet’s personality, habits, and comfort level so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and stress-free. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while giving them a safe, calm, and welcoming place to stay.

Thank you! I saw your question on the tricks. I would love to teach her how to shake. I have tried a few times but it hasn’t caught on. Open to other ideas too. I am also open to ordering any toys you think would be good for her. I got one of those dog feeder snuffle mats but not something you can use when you just drop in!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and energy levels — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and comfort. I understand that every dog is different, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, drop-ins, play sessions, and quality care for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may feel nervous in new environments or around new people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible during our time together. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I make sure pets are always supervised. I’m attentive to behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Abby was incredible. My apartment is not very easy to get in and out of and she worked with me through all difficulties. She was on time, communicative & responsive. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. She cleared so much of my anxiety. Using rover for the first time can be scary, but Abby was the perfect fit and I’m so thankful for her! I would have her watch Chief anytime ❤️❤️❤️

We were so happy we chose Allie to watch our cat! We had her check in for 30 minutes daily for 10 days. Allie was a great communicator and made us so happy with her updates and photos! We looked forward to the check ins every day. She made a wonderful daily routine for our cat that made us feel so much better about leaving him for an extended time. I would highly recommend Allie for your cat sitting needs and I will definitely be using Allie again in the future.

My dog and I recently moved into town. Sherwin has provided peace of mind with his care for Toro. The small details like treats, detailed summary of his visit, and videos of toro really make a difference. He communicates well and is flexible!
