House Sitting in Hancock, Austin, TX

“Arantxa gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of town. She goes above and beyond with updates, special care to keep their routine, and gives them so much love and attention. She genuinely treats your pets like they are her own. She is the BEST! 😊”

“Kody was phenomenal. My dog is very shy and timid at first. Kody was patient with him slowly earning his trust. Kody also sent great pics and detailed updates which was nice to have while away. He even went above and beyond and watered my plants while it was hot out. I would highly recommend Kody.”

“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”

“Erica is absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond in caring for my dog, not only following all of my directions to the letter but also giving him extra love and attention. She took him on special outings, including a fun trip to the River Yard Bar, and made sure I got plenty of photos along the way. Her communication was excellent with consistent updates, quick responses, and genuine care that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I can’t recommend Erica enough for anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitter!”

“Daria was absolutely wonderful! She kept in touch and coordinated with me excellently! She was extremely flexible to my chaotic schedule and she sent so many wonderful photos with my baby cat! My cat is usually pretty shy but she cozied right up! Daria also provided updates on how much my cat was eating and if she seemed engaged. Really appreciate that. Daria also left my apartment much cleaner than I left it for her hahah!! Daria is a wonderful sitter, I absolutely recommend her if your looking for a house/pet sitter!”

We loved the many wonderful photos she sent documenting what a good time they were having. Her great care for Hank and our home made a much needed trip possible. Highly recommend.”

About: With a strong sense for dog body language and behavior, I naturally bond with dogs and know how to keep them engaged, playful, and calm. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior companion, I tailor their care to suit their needs and give them a fulfilling, well-balanced day. My schedule allows me to maintain consistent routines for feeding, training, sleep, and potty breaks. I offer a variety of experiences from city parks to nature hikes, giving dogs exposure to a diverse range of settings. I also provide basic training support including crate, leash/off-leash, recall, sport-based games like fetch and frisbee, and even task-based and obedience exercises—skills I’ve developed through 10+ years of experience with dogs from puppyhood to senior stages. As a graduate student currently on summer break, my schedule is wide open—and I’ve intentionally structured my time to prioritize pet care. I’m available for care throughout the day, whether that means early-morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or overnight sitting. My flexibility allows me to tailor routines around your dog’s unique needs, whether they’re energetic and need lots of stimulation or prefer a slower, calmer pace. I spend much of my time outdoors, and I love incorporating dogs into that lifestyle—hiking scenic trails, visiting off-leash parks, or just taking long neighborhood walks. I believe dogs thrive when they experience new encounters, and I work those moments of enrichment into every week. I live in a spacious, first-floor apartment with direct access to a secure patio and a neighborhood dog park—just steps outside my door. This makes potty breaks, quick outdoor play/walks, and socialization seamless and stress-free. Every day, our neighborhood hosts friendly dog meetups with well-behaved pups, offering perfect opportunities for your dog to engage with others in a safe environment. Inside my home, dogs will find a clean, calm, and organized space with plenty of enrichment. I have a variety of toys, training tools, puzzles, and games to ensure your dog stays mentally and physically stimulated—the goal is for no boredom and anxiety. I also keep a full range of grooming and cleaning supplies on hand, so whether your dog needs a simple wipe-down or a post-adventure bath, I’ve got it covered. I am well-versed in training methods and behavior management, so if your pup has specific routines or commands, I likely already have the knowledge and equipment to maintain their structure. I’m happy to reinforce crate training, leash manners, or any custom instructions you provide to ensure consistency while you’re away. I also have a well-socialized golden retriever mix who’s incredibly calm, friendly, and trained to model great behavior for other dogs. If your dog enjoys companionship, mine makes an excellent playmate. If needed, I can crate or separate the dogs for one-on-one attention or downtime—your dog’s comfort and safety always come first.

“Karli was awesome! She checked in with us multiple times a day and made us feel at ease that our doggies were being well taken care of! She has a great energy and was able to calm our excited dogs very easily 🙏 She was a great house guest as well, will definitely rehire!”

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Marissa watch our two pups, Edgar and Jasper for 5 days in our home and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She was amazing from start to finish: dependable, professional, and clearly someone who loves what she does. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such capable hands. She kept us updated, sent pics, followed our instructions and also walked the babies. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring petsitter.”

Maria H.

“Needed a last minute house sitter and reached out to Aniela and she was great. Walked, fed, and sent daily updates of the dogs with pictures. Will rebook in the future and would definitely recommend”

“Lily is an amazing dog sitter!! She is very communicative and is proactive in asking questions or clarifying details about any needs that arise. When I get home, the pups are completely content—making it clear that they feel comfortable and happy with her taking care of them. Will definitely continue to reach out to Lily for future needs!”

Rachel W.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Leslie! She was super reliable and always quick to respond to messages. Our dog has gotten a bit more anxious in recent years, but she spent tons of time with her and really helped her feel comfortable. When we came home she was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats our pup like family, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

Nicole J.
