About: I have ten years of experience caring for animals in shelters, as well as walking and caring for them locally (e.g. Austrian Animal Welfare Association; Austin Animal Shelter). I want the pets to always feel comfortable, that they have enough exercise and cuddles. I want your pet to be well and safe in your absence. Back in Austria, I cared for my own two cats, my dog and a horse. In February 2023, my dog and I moved from Austria, where I spent 9 years of my life and finished school. I plan to establish a dog care business here. I offer in-house sitting during your holidays, so your pets can enjoy life in their familiar environment. I am very flexible timewise. Please tell me your needs. I can offer both sitting in your house over night (e.g., on your vacation) and short-term sitting such as going to walks. I want to make sure that you feel comfortable. I will send you updates and fotos regularly. You can contact me any time during pet care.

Ashlyn is the BEST. Flexible, kind, and plays with our puppy until puppy is tired. Ashlyn also walks her and gives obedience treats. We are very happy with her in our home and will keep booking her services.

About: Hi! I’ve always had a deep love for animals, especially after caring for my senior pup in their final years. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to make pets feel safe and comfortable. I now enjoy caring for all pets (except snakes!) and I’m happy to match their energy with walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Whether your pet needs a calm, gentle environment or an active companion, I’ll treat them like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full time but I usually have a few days off during the week/weekend. I’m always looking for a way to stay active each week. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room. I’m respectful of other peoples homes and will always leave them better than I found them.

About: I have two dogs of my own that I take care of when I go home. I had 3 Furbabies, but my first girl passed away on December 30th of 2024. She was a mini schnauzer who was full of energy and love. She was about 10 or 11 years old and had gotten sick. Her name was Peaches 🥰. They never have to want for anything. And of course when I come home they literally never leave my side. I give my all to them and I will do the same with your Furbabies. I am currently not working full time, so I am able to give your Furbabies the attention they need. My job I currently work 3pm-11pm shifts but I am able to come home on lunch and check on our Furbabies. I live in a house, so it is plenty of room for small and medium sized dogs. There is plenty of grass outside and we can take walks around the neighborhood or go to the park. And if needed your Furbabies can be in a crate.

About: I have had pets my whole life, and I have gained experience in caring for pets as I have gotten older. I have experience in feeding and walks. I am home from college for the summer, so this works well with my schedule as long as I am not out of town, which will be put in my schedule. I strive to ensure that the pets I take care of feel safe and comfortable with me as their caregiver. Making them feel safe in their environment helps their nerves.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I don’t just “watch” your pets—I care for them like they’re my own. With years of hands-on pet sitting experience, I focus on building real trust with both pets and their owners so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’ve trained several puppies and understand the patience, consistency, and attention they need, and I also have experience caring for senior pets and their specific needs—whether that’s slower routines, extra comfort, or medication reminders. I pay attention to the little things—your pet’s habits, personality, and favorite routines—so they feel safe, loved, and right at home. My goal is simple: spoiled pets and completely stress-free owners. I’m currently building my life coaching business, which only requires about 2–3 hours of work per day—and it’s all done from my laptop. Because of this, I’m home and available most of the time, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available for drop-ins, boarding, house sitting, and overnight care as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely and get fresh air. I also have an extremely loving 3-year-old cat who is very friendly, gentle, and used to being around other animals. I tailor care to each pet’s needs and personality. For larger dogs who need extra exercise and stimulation, I provide fun, exercise-based games and active playtime to keep them happy and engaged. For smaller dogs—or pets who simply want more affection—I’m always happy to slow things down with snuggles, lap time, and relaxing together (TV time included!). If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to follow their normal routines closely so they feel safe, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. My goal is to create a loving, calm environment wherever your pet is staying.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Growing up, I was the go-to person in my family for all things animal care. In 2019, I adopted the first animal of my own, a Goldendoodle named Cooper. After adopting him my love for animals grew tenfold and I decided animal care is my passion. Since then we have also adopted a Poodle named Callie and two tabby cats named Oliver & Kevin. The love I have for these animals is just indescribable and it’s what made me want to dive into pet care and make this my everyday job. Animals are my true passion and I dream of one day owning my own boarding and daycare facility. I’ve gained valuable experience working as a manager at a local daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for a wide variety of pets. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or any other type of animal, I’m here to provide the best care possible. I’d love to share my experience and provide your pets with the care, comfort, and security they deserve while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I’m dedicated to turning my passion into a professional career. Caring for animals is what I do every day, and it’s my number one priority. I’m eager to expand my experience by looking after a variety of pets, beyond just my own. With my flexible schedule, I have plenty of availability throughout the week and am ready to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight care, or just providing companionship, I’m here to give your pets the attention, love, and care they deserve. I’m experienced in all aspects of animal care and take great pride in ensuring each pet feels comfortable and well-cared for. Whether your pet has a unique feeding schedule, requires daily medication, or whatever the case may be, I’m here to provide the individualized care they deserve. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel safe and secure, and I’m dedicated to giving them the attention, consistency, and love they need.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid, but I’ve been actively caring for my pup since I was 17. From going on walks to playing in the living room or just cuddling and watching TV, I can assure you I’m definitely someone who will care for your pet with their best interest at heart! I’m currently a physical therapy student out on winter break, so I have a lot of time on my hands! I do like to have my weekends free to spend time with my own pets, however. I have a fenced in area of my yard that your dog would be able to use the bathroom in, however, I can also take your dogs on walks if they prefer it! I have two sweet dogs, though one is a little older so I would most likely keep them separate. I also have one younger dog that is very high energy and would love a play mate!

About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.
