About: I’ve taken care of and trained multiple dogs since middle school and I’ve pet sit for friends and family often. I love animals of all kinds! I work from home with an extremely flexible schedule, which means I am pretty much free 24/7 to take care of all you’re pet’s needs. I have all the time in the world to visit with your pet and take them on long walks. For in home pet care, please leave detail instructions!

“Chris was a lifesaver as I was visiting Austin and my schedule got super busy, so Iuckily he was able to watch Shamu. The little guy had a lot of fun; was pretty tuckered out too. Highly recommend!”


“Jose is absolutely amazing with dogs. His dogs are very friendly and sweet and play so well with my puppies. I just moved to Austin and was hopeful to find someone I could trust with my furbabies and Joes exceeded my hopes. He is wonderful!”


About: I love small dogs. I spend at least an hour a day at mueller park! Looking for friendly dogs to play all day with my little dog! I provide excellent care and constant updates! I work from home so love the furry company all day long! Can provide bathroom breaks as often as needed! I go the park everyday! I live in a dog friendly apartment where dogs are allowed everywhere! I am constantly watching over them to make sure they are doing great!


“Anne is an absolute gem of a dogsitter! She helped me out last minute, and I truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after Bart. From the start, she was so kind, caring, and accommodating. Bart immediately felt at home with her and absolutely loved spending time with her dogs. Every time he went over, he came back happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. Anne really went above and beyond to make things easy for us, and I’ll always be grateful for how much she helped. She will forever be Bart’s dogsitter whenever we’re in Austin. We’re so lucky to have found her!”


About: I grew up with animals and have been volunteering at shelters since I was a child! I've been caring for my dog for 8 years and have done it all - administering medication, caring for her while she was sick, taking long walks, and giving her lots of love and attention. ❤️ I've watched friends' puppies, senior dogs, and cats. I work freelance so I'm flexible on weekdays during working hours. I can accommodate weekend hours with reasonable notice. Message me and we can work something out! I have a small senior dog who prefers other small dogs. We live in an apartment building with a dog park and plenty of green space.

“Aimee was so sweet and caring with our pup! She was communicative and sent us photos/videos with updates. Elvie was very comfortable in her care and we will definitely book with her in the future.”


About: My love of dogs started at an early age when I would write notes on my parents' mirror at night asking to get a dog. When they finally agreed, I have had at least one dog in my life ever since. I have had my sweet dog, Ralph, for almost 9 years and raised him myself since he was just an 8-week old baby. He is so important to me, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to keep your fur baby safe, entertained and happy. That's what I have been doing (unofficially) for my friends' pets so I figured it's time to make it official! I know all the best walking routes in the Cherrywood neighborhood (where I live) and have a large backyard + screened in porch for us to play/hang out in. I'd love to walk, board or just chill with your dog (or cat!) and give you some peace of mind! I'm currently looking for full time work, so I have plenty of time for walks and playtime at the moment. As of now, I can take boarders for up to 3 days and am flexible with walks and drop ins. For cat care, I am able to do drop-bys only since I have a cat and dog in the house already. I have a fenced-in yard, screen in porch and spacious house for your pups to enjoy. I typically take my own dog for a long-ish walk (weather permitting) twice a day and let him out in the back as needed throughout the day. We also have a cat, Winston, who has no fear when it comes to dogs, so it's best if your dog has had at least some exposure to cats before they come to stay. I don't crate my own dog anymore, but will happily do so if that is your preference for your own dog as long as you are able to bring the crate. My pets have pretty much free range of the whole house and furniture (yes, even the bed), I love to snuggle up :) We also have a guest room where my dog and cat typically choose to sleep. They're spoiled and they deserve it!

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.

“Ashley and her family have always been so accommodating to dog sitting or overnight boarding. We’ve rebooked with her several times! Great at sending pictures of my dog while we’re away too :)”


“We had a last minute cancellation from another Rover and Alessandra was able to watch Ohana within a few hours. She was responsive and sent us photos. Ohana seemed to enjoy her stay. We would use her again.”


About: I have a deep love and special connection with animals of all kinds, that started with the dogs and cats of my childhood. I will make friends with your pets quickly, and always ensure their utmost happiness.I am keen on attention to details and perseverance in the face of challenges. I am currently picking up gig work while in between industries. I have reliable transportation and a very open schedule. I am available to work consistently in Bastrop, Travis, and Caldwell counties. I can do shorter term work in Bexar and Hays counties. I am happy to maintain the comfortable and perfect situation you already have set up for your pets. I am careful to follow all rules you have in place.
