Sierra was a quick responder! Was able to help me out last minute and even worked with my schedule to get a meeting together with my dog. She sent pictures the entire stay and was very clean and courteous of my space! She kept me updated constantly which is a huge relief as my dog has some separation anxiety but she did everything by the books and I would totally ask her to watch my pupper again!

Maya was great! She came early to meet with Ryder before we left on our trip. She communicated very well throughout the weekend and followed all the instructions on routine, meds, and play time. I was nervous because Ryder was on new medicines with a lot of side effects and wasn’t as friendly as normal but she handled it with grace. We got loads of cute photos which gave me a lot of comfort. I will certainly use her again and recommend her to others.

Incredible, reliable, and so loving toward our kitties! Valentina stayed overnight for almost 2 weeks; she communicated regularly, tended to their idiosyncrasies, and made us feel so at ease while we were away. Will be re-booking with Valentina as soon as the next opportunity arises!

About: In our home, every dog receives attention, love, and constant supervision. I work from home, so they will never be left alone for long periods of time and will always have company, care, and a calm, safe environment. 🐶☀️My priority is making them feel comfortable, happy, and at home while respecting their routines, rest time, and any special needs they may have. Here, they won’t be treated as just temporary pets, but as part of the family during their stay. 🐶🐾💚 My daily routine combines my commitment to health and wellness with caring for dogs. I exercise regularly and maintain healthy habits, which gives me the energy and patience for walks, playtime, and constant attention. This ensures that dogs stay active, happy, and well cared for, while feeling safe and loved throughout the day.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated dog lover with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I will be starting a part-time job on June 7th, but for now since I’m currently not working, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or house sitting—perfect for pets who do best staying in their own home and routine. I have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and daily care needs. I’m the kind of person who talks to dogs like they fully understand me (because… they do, right?), and I never say no to a good game of fetch or a cuddle session. Whether your pup is high-energy, a little shy, or somewhere in between, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed and always follow care instructions closely—details matter! I focus on caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I’ll keep you updated with photos (probably too many, but no one’s ever complained) and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. While I am watching your fur family my babies will still be getting their needed attention from my boyfriend. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets—and yes, I will absolutely learn all their nicknames. I have tree big dogs myself, of various ages. My Boo Boo is getting old and I have Jerry who still is full of energy. While Stella has spurts of energy some days and other days she'd rather just snuggle. I am very cognoscente of what's around me when walking dogs. I am comfortable crating your baby and sleeping with them if needed & medicine.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10 years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe (depending on their size), play with their fur babies. I have a relaxed environment for and am working from home so I have lots of time to take care of your pets. I'm available for boarding on weekends. I live in a house with a fenced deck and have pet friendly neighbors. I will make sure your fur baby is comfortable and that they always have food, water, snacks and favorite toys. I can also take your pet to the fenced private dog area in my neighborhood.

Woody was SO great we with our buddy Shiner! They sent us constant photos while we were away on an 8 day trip while they watched our home/dog. They were super communicative about everything, and even put all linens in the washer/dryer, and tidied up the whole house before they left. You could just tell they LOVE dogs, and took incredible care of our Shiner while we were gone :)

Michelle was absolutely great taking care of our little one and our home while we were gone for 13 days. She is a rare find and a truly calm, gentle soul. She definitely earned all her great reviews. We did a meet and greet first where she came to our home and we knew after that meeting that she was the one! Finding a great pet/house sitter is harder than it seems. So many on Rover don't really seem to understand the meaning of house sitting. It means you actually live in the house with the fur babies not leave every 4 hours and be gone all day. Rest assured Michelle will live in your house so your anxious fur baby remains in their comfort zone and routine. I work from home so I wanted to mimic that level of human presence that out little guy has become accustomed to and she was able to provide that. Michelle took care of little chores like watering plants and feeding our fish, but most importantly she took care of our little baby with plenty of play time and constant companionship. She was very responsive over messenger even though we were in another country. And when we came home the house was perfectly clean and in order. We highly recommend Michelle for pet/house sitting and we will certainly be using her again!

She was able to work with my reactive puppy (he can be a lot) and did some training even! He seemed calmer when I came back which was a good sign that he was comfortable with her while I was gone.

About: Hi, my name is Sam! With a lifelong passion for animal care, I have cared for many foster and rescue dogs, including my 10-year-old terrier mix, the Dude, whom I adopted at age 1, and my 16-year-old min pin, GIR, who crossed the rainbow bridge in 2023. My dedication to animals drives me to provide reliable and loving care for your pets. Throughout my adult life, I've had the pleasure of caring for many rescue and foster dogs, a snake, a rat, a hamster, and 5 ferrets. I've volunteered at my local animal shelter, socializing dogs and working with adoption outreach programs. I worked as a kennel tech at West Alabama Animal Clinic in Houston, caring for boarded dogs and cats. I worked to keep the animals safe and in a clean environment while also helping the vet techs with sick animals. I've volunteered at the Austin Wildlife Center, caring for small mammals like opossums and squirrels, as well as injured birds that came through the intake center. Needless to say, I love animals. And I'll show that much care and more with your pups when they're in my care. I'm currently working 32 hours per week, but I'm available 6 am - 9 am and after 6 pm Tuesday - Friday. I have flexible hours Saturday-Monday to spend more time with your pups! I have a fully fenced yard and one small friendly dog to hang out with your pups, if that's allowed. If not, I also have a large soft crate to keep them separated.

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.

About: I’ve been walking dogs and Pet Sitting in Austin for the past year and I’ve gained a great amount of experience with a wide range of pets and their care takers. I love making new furry friends! I am a first grade teacher during the school year but I walk and pet sit during my breaks and weekends. I’m on summer break currently and have ample amounts of free time. I care for pets in my home and others home as if they were my own pets. I give them the utmost care, attention, kindness and love as I would if they were my fur baby and a friend.

It was so great to be able to rely on Dina for the best service possible for my Kaila. Kaila is a high energy pup and I was so grateful for Dina to make sure that she would be all tired out and happy to see me home! I highly recommend Dina - she's wonderful with Kaila!! I would have given this 10 stars if there was an option. thanks, Dina!

We couldn’t be happier with Val. She made our dogs and cat dreams come true. She played with them to their hearts content. Our Willie, which is a bit more shy immediately took to her. She also did things that were above and beyond, like watering my wife’s tomato plant. I have no doubt that we will re-booking with Val many many times in the near future. Thank you, Val!!

Paula does a wonderful job with Sadie! Whether it's overnight care or a drop in, she makes sure to give Sadie one-on-one time. Her recaps are spot on with Sadie's behavior so I know that they are spending quality time and bonding. Whenever I have Paula watching Sadie, I don't have to worry because I know that she will be well taken care of!

Julian was an absolute rockstar. From the first interaction we felt entirely comfortable entrusting our pups and home to him, and every subsequent interaction expanded that trust. He sent many (very good) photos and videos and took the dogs out on multiple adventures. Their comfort was apparent in every photo. 100% recommend.

We are so grateful for the attention and care and training and fun that Anthony gave our new pup over the holidays. It was a little nerve wracking to leave such a young puppy, but Anthony was so reassuring, sent lots of updates and pictures, and his dog helped train up our dog! Anthony is and his wife are such clearly dog lovers. ❤️. Would highly recommend and will definitely use again!

5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Outstanding Dog Walker and House Sitter! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lori! She recently took care of my 9-year-old dog, Khaleesi, and it was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had with a dog walker. From the very beginning, Lori was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive to Khaleesi’s needs. It’s clear she has a natural connection with animals and genuinely loves what she does. She sent regular updates, adorable photos, and detailed notes after each visit, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. When I returned, Khaleesi was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. I honestly think she misses Lori already! It’s rare to find someone who treats your dog like their own, but Lori did exactly that. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and experienced to care for your furry family member, look no further. Lori is an absolute gem, and Khaleesi and I are so grateful to have found her!
