Dog Walking Highland

“Booked Erin to do biweekly walks with my girlie while I’m at work and she is the best! Very dependable, very communicative. Really appreciate her!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved being around them! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I enjoy going on walks, spending time outdoors, and giving dogs lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll make sure your dog gets the care, exercise, and love they need while sticking to their usual routine. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. Since I work from home, I can give them plenty of attention throughout the day, along with walks, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll follow their usual feeding schedule, routines, and any special instructions to make sure they feel right at home!

“Jenna was great with my pup, and it was so nice to find someone who would run with him! She was professional and on time. I look forward to booking with her again.”

“Sofia has been the best addition to my pup’s life! My husband I both just got new jobs and need to be in office more than we have before and just knowing I have someone I trust to come into my home and play, walk and love on my dog while I’m away gives such peace of mind. Her report cards are great at the end of the each walk/playtime!”

About: I’m currently home full time during a career transition and regularly walk 5+ miles a day - most of the time on the Lady Bird Lake trail (a personal favorite in my new town!) I love dogs, so why not do those miles with a friend?! I won’t view walking your beloved pet as an obligation that I want to get over as soon as possible but as a fun addition to my day, and that will show in how your dog feels about it as well! I had a beautiful Weimaraner named Heidi that recently passed away, but I am certain regularly walking her as a puppy prepared for me almost any breed! I also fostered a Treeing Walker Coonhound for 6mos after it was found running on the side of the road in Virginia hunting country - Francis was skittish and emaciated when I received him, but after a few months of apartment living including walks 3+ times a day, regular eating, and training I found him a new home in no time. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience and attention to details to loving and spoiling your pet!

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, and I am a big animal lover. I’ve successfully trained 2 puppies. I have many years of sitting and walking experience, professionally and otherwise. My dog is very friendly and well-socialized. I work from home so I’m available around the clock for the most part. For me, playing with pets is a wonderful stress reliever so we both get something beneficial out of it. I live in a neighborhood with safe walking paths with plenty of shade. I also have nearby dog parks, weather permitting. I have a big privacy-fenced backyard. I have gates and ways of partitioning space in my house and yard to accommodate special needs. I am a retired ICU nurse, so I am diligent about health and safety and very capable of administering medications as needed.

About: I'm a caring sitter in the central Austin area and have a range of experience taking care of high-energy puppies and Chihuahuas, mellow senior dogs who require different medications, cats of all temperaments, as well as bunnies, guinea pigs, horses, and chickens. I know that animals all have highly individual needs, depending on breed, personality, age, and many other factors. I am a very loving and diligent caretaker and have so much fun walking and playing with animals, as well as tending to the houses where I stay. I'd love the chance to say hello to you and your furry friend and see if we're a good fit! :) I'm currently working part-time as a barista and have a very flexible schedule. I am always willing to work with my clients to make sure their pets receive the high-quality care they deserve. I make sure I know where pets are at all times and stay conscious of potential hazards such as pools, or open doors and gates. Your furry friends will always be safe and attended to.

About: I’ve cared for a wide range of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, fish, and small animals like guinea pigs. I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life—from raising my own dog from 8 weeks old to caring for senior dogs with more specialized needs. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy working with high-energy dogs, making sure they get the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to stay present, maintain routines, and give pets consistent care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I also prioritize clear communication and provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care is something I intentionally structure my day around, not something I fit in when I have time. Since I work remotely, I’m home and available throughout the day, which allows for consistent walks, playtime, and attention instead of long gaps alone. I live in a large home with a fully fenced yard, so dogs have safe, easy access to the outdoors for breaks and fresh air. I still make sure they get proper walks and activity based on their energy level—it’s not just yard time. I adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine—whether that’s higher activity and stimulation or a calmer, more predictable pace—and focus on keeping their day consistent and low-stress. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, structured, and low-stress environment. I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to—feeding schedules, walks, and downtime—so the transition feels as natural as possible. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks, along with regular walks and playtime based on their energy level. I’m home throughout the day, so they receive consistent supervision and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, medications if needed—and make sure the pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean, and provide regular updates so owners know how their pet is doing. In both settings, I focus on being attentive, reliable, and responsive to each pet’s individual needs.

“Yeti loves his walks with David. It’s very clear from the photos post walks. David easy to get ahold of and responds quick. My first go to for yeti walks! Thank you David!”

“Kaitlyn was amazing, we got really lucky finding someone like her to care for our boy!”

Monica C.

“Isa was so great, efficient, and communicative! We enlisted her for a walk and dinner for the first go around and she took a ton of photos and the report card was so thorough we could tell her genuine care from it because she described their personality to a tee! We can't wait to work with her again, Chip and Summer the corgis can't either.”

About: I’m experienced in taking care of all types of breeds, ages, and activity level animals. Patience and gentleness is a virtue for me when caring for furry loved ones. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnight care, and pets that benefit from a more structured routine. I can easily take care of your pets in your own home while also scoping out any suspicious activity to ensure safety of your pet and belongings.

“David is very kind, and helpful. He made sure my dog was walked on time, and was thoughtful about the route and making sure my dog’s needs were met. I would definitely recommend him for your pet care needs!”

About: I got my first dog when I was only 5 years old and was taught responsibility by being the one to feed and water her even at a young age. I currently own a German Shepherd as well as a cat. They are my fur babies! I work from home and have an hour lunch so would love to drop by and give your kids a walk or just check in! I am open every weekend and week day evening. Like I mentioned above, I do work from home so if you need a midday check in I am able to do that! If I were to do drop ins at your home I would be sure your kids went potty and had a drink of water and some play time before I left!

“Kristie did a fabulous job with my dog while I was on vacation for two weeks. She sent me daily updates and took wonderful care of my baby. I highly recommend Kristie as a caregiver”

About: I grew up with animals and have been taking care of them for friends and family for as long as I can remember. Pets hold a very special place in my heart. From walking, feeding, bathing, training, and lots of cuddling. I aim to keep your pets filled with happiness while you are away. I have bottle fed kittens, potty trained puppy’s, and taught my late 80lb dog to walk off leash when all he wanted to do was chase squirrels. Taking care of pets comes natural and I want to give them as much love as they give to us. I work from home full time and am able to be at the ready for your pets at a moments notice. I go for long morning walks and cook at home. Easy going and flexible to help with all of your pet sitting needs. I take the utmost care of other peoples homes, items, and pets. Leaving homes better than I found them and pets as happy as they can be without their parents.

About: I've loved and raised dogs my whole life, and I love animals in every form. I've been the go-to sitter for several of my friends and family members over the years, and I would be honored to be able to meet your fur children and give them all the love and scritches they deserve. I'm currently sitting full time, so I have plenty of time to commit to caring for your critters. And from where I live just NW of central Austin, I'm able to get around town quickly and easily. I have a single-story 3 bedroom house and a large fenced backyard to give your dogs plenty of space to let our their zoomies. And as long as they are well groomed, I'm comfortable letting them cuddle with me on the furniture.

“Meg was absolutely wonderful with Mika. She clearly loves animals and was patient with my senior dog. She was communicative, reliable and sent cute pics. Greatly appreciate her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I had a black miniature schnauzer and my grandma had a very small Yorkshire Terrier. I always took them for walks, fed them, bathed them and also cared for my neighbors and friend’s dogs. This summer I’m staying in Austin with occasional visits to Houston (my hometown). My address changes between both cities and sometimes I forget to change it but just shoot me a message to check where I’m at! Over previous years I went back to Houston and I watched 10 dogs throughout that time and it was such a great experience seeing how different breeds act. Since I’m going to The University of Texas at Austin, I’ll be at home most of the time, studying, or going to class and some events, so I have time to take care of your dogs or cats. I’ll be available to take for walks, exercise, play and feed daily. Right now I’m babysitting and teaching occasionally but during the Summer I will have a job, still looking for something! I make sure to give your pets attention and love so that they feel good. I can drive to your home or you can drop them off/stay in my home. We can also meet some place in the middle for a meet and greet if you want.
