“Kody was great. Came for a meet and greet and seemed genuinely interested in what Theo’s needs were. Arrived for Theo’s walk on time and sent a few photos and a nice update. Was kind and considerate with all of our instructions as we have a lot of concerns due to Theo’s size and medical history.”

“Michael is so good with our animals! He walked our dog, but also was super friendly with our 2 cats. He's super responsive, and is always sending cute pictures. I'd recommend Michael to anyone needing pet sitting or dog walking!”

About: Does your dog love daily adventures, or would they rather curl up and relax? Either way, my husband and I would love to be the ones they spend their time with while you're away. We both have flexible schedules, so your dog gets our real attention throughout the day, not just a quick visit here and there. We grew up with dogs and have experience walking, running, fostering, and boarding all kinds of pups, from the ones who want to play all day to the ones who just want to be near you on the couch. We're dog people through and through, and we treat every dog who stays with us like part of the family. Send us a message and let's set up a meet and greet, we'd love to meet you and your pup soon! My husband and I both work from home with flexible schedules, so pet care fits naturally into our day. My mornings are wide open for long walks, and I have plenty of availability throughout the day for outside breaks and playtime too. I love being active, so getting to do that alongside a dog is honestly one of my favorite parts of the day! Your pup gets full freedom in our home, with plenty of couch cuddles and a safe, relaxed space to settle right into. We love getting outside to explore the neighborhood together, and I always match the walk to your dog's pace, whether that's a slow, easygoing stroll or a longer walk to burn off some energy. I'll send regular photo updates throughout the stay, so you can relax knowing exactly how your pup is doing and feel good about your time away.

“Christopher was patient with my dog and took great care of him! I will definitely be booking him again for walks and to watch my dog when I go out of town!”

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.

“Samantha was great with Teddy! She was communicative, flexible, and experienced. Would def recommend to others”

About: I have a wealth of experience in pet care, primarily dogs, from my own pets to volunteer and foster experience with Austin Pets Alive. For younger pups, training and repetition is absolutely key to making those teenagers thrive! I have always trained my own dogs and have worked with APA's certified trainers to build my knowledge and understanding of dog behavior to work with shelter and rescue dogs find the comfort in routine. I also have experience in senior dog and high medical needs dogs from both personal and volunteer experience. Meds, IVs, blood glucose checks, you name it and I have probably done it with a pet. My goal for your higher need dog is always ensuring they feel safe and comfortable, especially if that means taking 30+ minutes because they showed that they needed more time. I have handled dogs of all sizes and all kinds of behaviors so nothing is too big or small, too shy or excitable for me. I'm currently a college student who's simply looking to work on my own schedule that a typical job can't provide currently! Being able to walk or hang out with your pet while listening to my required readings or otherwise studying sounds like a perfect fit for me! As a pet parent, I fully understand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone else with your pet. That's why transparency is my biggest priority, through text and photo check ins so you don't have my word for it but visual evidence of what we're doing. For daycare at my home, I have my own 7 month old puppy and plenty of nearby parks to walk around in that I would love to take both our pups on! For care at your home, whether you're in an apartment or have your own backyard, walks and sniffaris are an essential part of me caring for them! Its not just about the exercise but the mental enrichment as well!

“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’ve had dogs and animals my entire life and I always will. Forgive me if I neglect the human bond cause I’ll probably be too busy trying to get your pets attention! I thrive in running this business cause I make myself ready and available to get to know the ins and outs of each pet and their owners. It’s important for me to understand all personalities and habits so their stay with me is the most comfy experience since they will be missing their persons (you) for a little bit. I’ll do my absolute best job to ensure a trust from not only them but you, that will make your future stays unquestionable! I’m self employed and work from home. I have my own schedule so making time for others is second nature and a good habit I’ve developed. If I’m being honest. Wanting to be around animals all the time is my full time job! Extremely flexible and I manage a great routine to fit the day to the pet and not just fit the pet in. My home is open for pets to wonder free and at will, I have a huge fenced yard and I’m happy to crate if needed! My home is pet proof and I adjust to any needs and routine to help keep each pet on their own schedule for minimal disruption while pet parents are away!

About: Dogs and cats have been beloved members of my family since I was a child. I enjoy being outside and am mindful/respectful of Texas heat. Most days I enjoy a walk and it would be great to have a fur-baby companion. I have a flexible schedule and many times am available on short notice. I make sure dogs are comfort with me before moving forward. Trust must be built with respect and patience. The response of the animal communicates their level of trust.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was about 5 years old. I have potty trained, pet sit for my friends, and taken care of plentiful animals over time. I have a dog of my own that I just recently got, and we have always had dogs in the family. I know how to manage the responsibility of a dog while giving them a loving home! I am a college student taking remote classes currently and spend all my free time with my pup! I would easily be able to add another one to mine! We go on 4-5 walks a day and make sure to get plenty of grass time! I care for pets by tending to their needs and making sure their health is taken care of most importantly. Then of course, I play and give them the admiration they deserve!

“Sarah was wonderful with my dog and also fantastic to work with! She is extremely responsive and reliable. Her communication is excellent (including lots of details and photos after each walk)! I will happily book her again!”

About: Howdy! My name is Mary, and I’m a pet sitter and dog walker with over 6 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. From couch-loving seniors to high-energy huskies that need multiple walks a day, I’m comfortable adapting to every pet’s unique personality and routine. I offer overnight stays, extended care, and drop-in visits, and I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve worked with breeds ranging from Great Danes to Yorkies and always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I work fully remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to spend quality time with your furry friend throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, overnight care, and extended stays, and I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. At this time, I don’t offer boarding in my home since I live in a small studio apartment, but I do have reliable transportation and am happy to come to you for drop-ins, overnight care, or extended stays. I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment.

About: I am a recent grad staying in the Austin area! I have a rottie (150 pounds) back home and have cared for pets with diverse needs numerous times over the last four years. I live in an apartment, but in a walkable neighborhood with plenty of sniff spots. I am willing to take up to two pets for boarding, however, the pets must be from the same residence to ensure they can get along while being away from home! I work from 8 to 5 in an office about 20 minutes from home, so during the week I have time for scheduled feedings, walks, and play before and after my work day. I keep a very clean apartment. While it is on the smaller side, your pet friend has plenty of room to splay around. I will take plenty of pictures so you can keep up with your friend's time away! I can care for dogs of any size, but would prefer to only watch one larger dog or two smaller dogs (from the same household) at a time. I can only take dogs that are potty trained and able to be left alone for a few hours at a time (crated or not crated). You can provide a crate if your friend prefers their own space when they need it!

“Adam kept me up to date and was delightful to Sir Fozzie. There was a hiccup with the miles counter and he was on top of that. I recommend him to anyone looking to use his services.”

About: I have grown up with many dogs my entire life. I am used to training, caring for, and feeding family dogs. I adopted my first dog 3 years ago, and it was the best decision I ever made! Her name is Luna, and she would love to accompany me on any dog walks (please let me know if this is an issue). I have also fostered one dog successfully since this time. I have limited availability in the mornings because I am in class. I find walking dogs relaxing and would love to take care of your pupper. What sets me apart from other walkers is that I will take the time to give your dog the extra love and affection they deserve. I already take care of my dog and cat each day but I would love to be able to take care of your pet too. I have classes on T,W,Th, and F in the mornings but I am free in the afternoons. I would care for the pet in my apartment by walking them frequently and making sure they are getting enough play time. This is a promise.

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!
