Pet Sitting Govalle

About: Caring for animals has been part of my life since I was a kid, from checking in on a neighbor’s pet to hosting overnight stays. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments—senior pets are especially dear to me—understanding the extra care and attention they often need. From gentle routines to specialized care, I’m experienced in making sure older pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. No matter your pet’s age or needs, I provide a calm, caring environment where they’ll feel right at home. I currently have a flexible hybrid schedule, which means plenty of time to care for your pups! Whether they need overnight boarding or just some extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I’m available for overnight stays starting at 4 PM—happy to provide a cozy, caring environment while you’re away! Your pup’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! My apartment complex features a spacious, well-maintained dog park with a wonderful community of dogs and pet parents—perfect for social pups who love to play. But if your furry friend prefers a quieter experience, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’m comfortable providing specialized care, whether that means crating, reinforcing training routines, managing special diets, or administering medications. Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I have extensive experience caring for them. Plus, living on the first floor means easy access with no stairs—gentler on aging joints.

“Amelia was a great sitter for Mila. She always sent pics and checked in with me on every visit. She also insisted on meeting me and mila ahead of time which shows how professional and responsible she is. Definitely recommend!”

“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.”

“This was our first time using Rover and to be honest we were a little nervous. After meeting Marsha for a meet and greet most of our nerves went away. After Marsha’s first drop in visit all of our nerves were completely gone. She went above and beyond by sending us 6 pictures of our crazy pups, plus a video! I’m overly protective of my dogs, plus they’re pretty crazy and not many people can handle them, but after this weekend Marsha is within the trust circle with our dogs. If you’re questioning at all, don’t and just book with her!”

“Kaile has been such an amazing rover to us since we used her. She helped me out during a last minute check in and it’s been great ever since. She leave amazing rover report cards and sends you lots of pictures of your dog during the visit which is always enjoyable to see. My dog loves her visits and I have no worries when she drops in to visit Mia”

“Lily did an awesome job watching our two dogs. One dog is active and likes to fetch a ball and the other is a Senior dog who needs meds and help eating drinking and walking. She was very patient and asked all the right questions. I would absolutely recommend Lily.”

“Mya so graciously agreed last minute to take care of my dog while I was travelling. She was so wonderful and sent daily updates + is magical with dogs. Absolutely recommend her and will ask her again if i need a dog sitter.”

“Matt was wonderful to work with! He came and met our two kittens before the start date and was immediately friendly with our fur babies. Matt spent extra time and effort to make sure our kitties were well looked after and entertained in our absence. We received plenty of updates with photos and check-ins. All of the feeding and litter box maintenance was followed perfectly and the house was well taken care of. Thank you so much, Matt! We hope to work with you again soon.”

“I’m so glad we went with Lizeth! She dropped in and checked on our two cats while we were away for a weekend trip. It was a last minute ask, and she pulled through! Even coming the day before to meet our littles. She has 4 cats of her own and I could tell she was comfortable with ours. Would recommend working with her and would hire again. ☺️”

About: Hello! My name is Heidi and I'm a social worker. I am 33 and live in East Austin. I am a dog person and cat mom (don't tell on me!). Please let me know if you have any questions about me! I can't wait to meet you. I have always loved dogs, but it wasn't until sophomore year of high school that my parents finally gave in to my incessant requests for a puppy. We raised Copper, a Catahoula/lab mix, from 8 weeks old. We took turns sleeping with him, potty trained him, walked him and taught him tricks. Copper is sadly no longer with us, but I loved raising him and watching him grow. I currently live in a housing cooperative with 12 human housemates, 3 dogs, 5 cats, and 5 hens. I have helped care for many present and past roommates' cats and dogs while they were out of town. I am not a trained animal behaviorist, but am happy to reinforce any training needs. I have limited experience administering medication to pets. I am currently between jobs and my schedule is wide open. My only unavailable time is Monday evenings between 7pm-9pm. I have a reliable car with current insurance. I require a meet and greet for all new clients, with rare exceptions for emergencies. This ensures safety and comfort both for your pet and for myself. Health and safety are a priority to me. I am happy to wear a mask in your home if you prefer. I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and have gotten regular boosters. I grew up in a shoes-off home and will happily respect your choice regarding shoes. If your dog is comfortable in cars, I'm happy to take them to a fenced bark park to play. I do not handle dogs off-leash in unfenced areas.

“The best pet sitter youll find. It’s so hard to find someone you trust and Arantxa is the best. She does more than expected and gives me so much peace of mind taking care of my pets. I’m so thankful for her services!”

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little boy and I age always loved all my pets. I love matching their energy and giving them the love they want and need. Currently, I'm going to school and I have a lot of time before and after school to hang out with any ones pets. I love getting up in the morning and hanging out with my cat so I believe that I would love to do the same with other pets. I love giving time to my cat. She's extremely curious and loving hiding in tiny areas of my apartment. I recently finish reorganized my room so that she has a bigger area to explore.
