House Sitting in Heritage Hills, Austin

“Linda was absolutely amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and we were nervous to be out of state for several days. Linda put all of our worries to rest and did a wonderful job taking care of our babies. She provided great updates on how all of our pets were doing and sent wonderful photos every day. We can’t thank you enough Linda!”

“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!”

“Kat is incredible. From our meet and great I could tell Kat was going to be gr8. She’s detail oriented, took notes & it was immediately apparent she is a true animal lover. Ruger may want us to go on vacation again. Multiple daily updates to put our minds at ease allowed us to fully emerge Ourselves in our vacation with full knowledge that our big baby boy was well taken care of! She also took great care of our house and went above and beyond in every category. We will definitely request her services again!”

“Thomas was extremely professional and took great care of our two dogs. We have a rambunctious vizsla puppy who he did great with. Attentive, communicative, and dependable, we were glad we booked him to dog-sit and look forward to doing so again!”

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 is incredible!! She’s dog sat for my pups several times, and has been great every time, but she deserves special recognition for extending her stay during the winter storm while I was unable to fly back. Not only was she great with the pups, but she took care of my home during the freeze like it was her own. She was a life saver!! Highly recommend.”

About: I pet sit because I want to, not because I need to💜. It’s a passion of mine to be around your pets. As the the oldest of 5 much younger siblings and a former professional nanny, I am a natural caregiver! Now, I am an independent hairstylist that works for myself, and as an animal lover, I have naturally become many of my clients trusted go-to pet sitter, especially for in house vacation pet sitting. I am highly trained as a former animal foster (including the bottle babies that require so much attention and responsibility) and as a professional care giver. I also grew up with non-traditional critters including, but not limited to, hedgehogs, salamanders, iguanas, guinea pigs, gerbils, etc. so I’m cool with whatever you throw at me! LGBTQ+ friendly!! I work for myself part time as a hairstylist. I make my own hours so it is very easy to not schedule on the days I am needed or to schedule large breaks in between. As a former nanny and elder millennial (lol) I am very responsible first! I always double check leashes, harnesses, doors, etc so you can leave your home feeling great with your guys in my hands. At my clients home, I very much like to follow their rules and instructions to the detail. I keep a photo and/or list of all instructions on my phone and a physical copy in my car. At my own home, I like to listen to what my clients feel comfortable with and follow that as discussed with them. I do like their pets to feel like I’m their loving grandma- they always get extra love and long walks when I come to see them!

“Jessica did a great job with my nervous dog. She kept me updated with how he was doing, and sent me plenty of pictures to help with the separation. I think I handled the separation worse than he did! She also was incredibly flexible when my plans changed, and helped to accommodate the situation to the best of her abilities. I will definitely use her again.”

“Kaitlin was phenomenal. This was our first time utilizing Rover and she made us more than comfortable by explaining things and communicating with us through all of this. Our boys are somewhere high maintenance and they can be handful at times. However she did a great job and we will definitely be using her services again. We would recommend her to anyone.”

Whitney B.

“Katelynn did a great job taking care of Boone! She was phenomenal at keeping me updated and is an effective communicator when she needed assistance getting access to home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.”

John K.

“Ashley was very communicative and always sent me a pic of my pup when I asked, since I'm a needy dog mom! Everything went very smoothly and I would definitely use her again in the future.”

Chelsea D.

“Andrew was very compassionate and communicative throughout the entire process. He initiated contact to ensure he has all the info needed to give Pumpkin a great experience. He sent me videos and pictures of Pumpkin during each visit, which gave me much needed peace of mind while I was traveling. This was a great first time experience for me, and I would definitely ask Andrew for help again the next time I go on vacation!”

“Jeremy was excellent with our three dogs over the holiday weekend. Despite the bad weather, they got plenty of exercise, and the house and yard were very clean when we returned. We would definitely have Jeremy back to watch our dogs.”

Rob R.

“We had power outage for a few days when Jess was staying in our house for dog sitting, she gave us updates every few hours to ensure the dogs were comfortable and staying safe. Can’t imagine the inconvenience this had caused but she didn’t complain once and had great communication throughout. Jess is always my first choice when we travel and I trust her 100% to handle any situations. Thank you!!”
