“Sammy has now been doing drop in visits for my puppy for a few weeks now and has been fantastic with her every single time. She sends very good communication and pictures and always takes my pup out on walks and keeps her active while I can’t be at home with her. Sammy is fantastic!”
About: I absolutely adore animals and I pride myself in taking very good care of them. From being active to making sure they have the correct food and vitamins in their diet, I cover it all. I want every animal to feel cared for and special in my presence. I am a freelance artist working in the city of Austin on a few different projects, but nothing I can't take with me on the road to care for your babies! I am a very gentle person and I rely upon approaching all animals with respect, care and patience. Not every animal wants to socialize, but that's okay! I want you to know your family members are safe with me. I have over 20 years of experience and own a menageries of animals myself (1 dog and 4 cats).
About: I usually try to follow a routine that keeps dogs on track and focused. I enjoy getting to know the dog what works best for them. I’m currently a stay at home mom who has found myself with more free time now that school has started and have always loved animals and been great at taking care of them. I try to get as much information about the animals as I can so that while their human is away there is not much difference that way the animals don’t get anxiety.
“I thought Joely was wonderful! She was attentive and playful! The kittens seem very happy! I would highly recommend her and would use her next time too! She was excellent!!”
“Julianna did a great job with Olive and Zee Zee our two dogs. She spend quality time with each of them and feed them as requested. I highly recommend he and will continue to book her for future needs.”
“Naomi is the best! This is our 2nd time using her to watch out cats and I couldn’t imagine using anyone else. She takes great care of my furkids and sends pictures daily. She will give you complete peace of mind while you’re away!”
About: I ran my own successful pet care business in Brooklyn for 5 years, have worked for 2 vet clinics & a grooming salon & raised many furbabies. I'm available to petsit in a client's home anytime. I'd be with your pets when not at work, so they're not alone too much while you're away. I can stay over at a client's home any day of the week for up to 3 weeks. During a sit, I offer all day hang outs for lonesome pets on the weekends, and I'll stay in each evening.
“From our initial meeting with Brian, we knew he was the perfect fit for us, as well as for our Kal. We love how Brian kept in touch with us, sending notes and photos for every visit. Brian provided the same loving care that we give Kal, and we consider him a Gold Star sitter. He will be our Rover go-to sitter from now on.”
About: I have experience in several different areas I worked in an emergency pet hospital, animal clinic, animal shelters and spay and neuter clinics. I also grew up with constant pets. I have experience as a veterinarian technician and kennel tech (3 years). I'm currently a stay at home mom to a homeschooler so my schedule is fairly open I can always move things around if needed as I don't have to stick to a certain schedule. I have a fenced area in my backyard so your fur baby can always have a safe space to use the bathroom. If I'm coming to your house to care for your fur baby just let me know what you need me to do and I'll make sure to take care of it. I will respect your home and belongings.

Adriene D.
“Adriene was one of the kindest and most caring pet sitters I have hired in a long time. She was very efficient when it came to giving my cats and medium dog (bichon) meds. She keeps things SUPER clean - I cannot abide by a dirty house with animals, and she makes sure that the floor is always clear after doing the litterboxes. I have 6 cats, and she has taken the time to get to know them. I have recommended her to my family and friends.”
Kathleen M.
“Kathleen is absolutely wonderful when it comes to caring for both dogs and cats. From the moment she started helping with our pets, we knew they were in the best hands. She takes the time to provide thoughtful updates, sending consistent communication that lets us know exactly how they are doing throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that she notices the small details and genuinely cares about them. What truly sets Kathleen apart is her attentiveness and reliability. She carefully followed our detailed instructions for administering daily oral medication, ensuring everything was done correctly and on time. Beyond her professionalism, it’s clear the animals truly love her! She was also very respectful of our space while we were away, even laundering dog blankets and keeping the floors swept and clean. This was above and beyond what we expected.”

“Pamela is a kind, responsible animal lover. She has taken care of our farm (chickens, goats, horse, donkey, cat, dogs, rabbits) with care. Pamela is trustworthy and goes above and beyond what was expected of her. We were impressed at how clean we found the animal enclosures. She even brushed our dog who normally gets covered in burs and bought a few toys for him too. We’ve hired Pamela the last few times we needed to leave the farm for multiple days, and trust her to stay at our house to do so. She follows directions and has been flexible to our requests. I highly recommend Pamela!”
