House Sitting Jonestown

“Geoff was great and I’m so glad he was able to house sit my husky, Jacob, when I had to travel to a conference at the last minute. He constantly sent updates with pics and videos and I could tell my pup was a very happy boy to have a friend to play with while I was gone for three day. I highly recommend Geoffrey and would use his services again.”

“Always such a joy to have Jason watch my Shihtzu Leonard. He is always so kind and patient with him. Jason will continue to be our go-to dog sitter when needed in the Austin area. Thank you for loving Leonard, Jason!”

“Nathan took great care of our dog Louie, cat Sushi and our home. Nathan was very communicative and provide status throughout his stay. Our home on our return showed he took well care of it. Would definitely recommend Nathan to others.”

“Sarah is always loving, patient, and attentive with our fur babies! She is always respectful of our home and leaves it spotless after overnight visits!!”

“Cassidy was an absolute lifesaver! Our sweet Emma came down with a bad stomach bug, and we had to book care with only about 3 hours’ notice. Cassidy not only accepted the last-minute request but showed up right on time, ready to help before we had to head out to a concert. She took wonderful care of Emma while we were gone and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. Thank you, Cassidy 🐾”

“Katherine was amazing with our 2 Great Danes and Blue tick coonhound. It was the first time our 6 y/o Danes stayed with anyone overnight, and one of them experienced some pretty high anxiety while we were gone. However, Katherine literally took care of everything! For the first time since we’ve had our dogs, I was able to travel with any worry at all knowing they were in good, capable hands. I highly recommend Katherine! She is communicative, responsible, and genuinely a great caregiver for furry family members.”

About: I’m a work-from-home sitter based in Lago Vista with over ten years of experience caring for cats, and I grew up with dogs. While my husband and I have worked as a duo in the past, these days it’ll be me caring for your pets while he stays home with ours. We have five cats of our own, so I understand firsthand how different each pet can be — their routines, quirks, and the specific ways they prefer to be approached. I take a calm, thoughtful approach and follow your care instructions closely, whether that’s medications, specific feeding routines, or simply letting them set the pace. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I focus primarily on local clients, which allows me to provide consistent, reliable care and be fully present for each one. I’ve had dogs for most of my life and while we have all cats now, I consider my time with your dog as my puppy fix since I can't have one of my own right now. I have a genuine love and respect for all life and creatures. While your pets are in my care, you can expect clear communication, swift responsiveness, respect for your home, and care that’s kind, consistent, genuine, therapeutic and dependable. I work from home full-time, and care for our five cat babies along with my husband. Because of my schedule, I can offer flexible and reliable care for your babies while you’re away. My home is a calm, clean, cat-friendly environment - no loose hazards, secure spaces, and a routine that keeps animals feeling settled. With five cats of my own, I’m practiced at introducing new animals carefully and reading their comfort level every step of the way. In your home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with respect. I make note of any hiding spots, food preferences, behavioral cues, and anything else that helps your pet feel at ease. Medications are administered carefully and on schedule, and I stay observant for any changes in behavior or health. Whether in my home or yours, my priority is a therapeutic experience for all.

“Amber was lovely! Sat for the day in my home on a last minute request, checked in frequently with updates and pictures, and followed all care instructions ❤️ Thank you for the great care!”

“Always love being able to leave and know my dogs are in the absolute best hands! If we are able to book with Madchen, we always do. Our dogs truly love her and our home is always tidier than when we left, which is such a blessing. We’re so thankful to have found Madchen!”

“This was the first time we have had someone house sit with our dog. Our senior pup has become more anxious when left for longer periods of time. When he was younger, he had no problem with our neighbors just dropping by occ to fed and let out. We started taking to vet for longer boards (3+days) but he was so anxious after we picked him up, that he would not let us out of his sight. Soo, we decided to try someone staying with him. Rebecca did Great! She was gentle with him and his needs, kept the house clean, followed our directions and tried to accomplish requests as we were away. Quick communication back when we texted. Our pup was calm and did not appear stressed when we got home. He kept looking for Rebecca, though. Missed her. :-)”

“Jere was so attentive and communicative! I loved how well she understood the dogs and felt my pups were well cared for and safe so I could focus and enjoy myself on our vacation!!!”

About: My family has owned hunting dogs for years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I’ve helped with training, reinforcing good behavior, daily walks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of affection. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and safety when caring for pets. Whether your dog loves outdoor adventures or just wants extra cuddles and attention, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available at almost any time, as I don’t start school until August! I can stay over night on most weekends, but just check with me to be sure! I have a portable crate that can take small-medium dogs or cats on adventures! I can do walks, clean up, playtime, sleepovers and lots of cuddles!

“Katelyn was fantastic with Archie. He enjoyed his walks and belly rubs. She was good about sending photos and keeping me up to date with what Archie was up to.”

Tina C.

“Rylee was an absolutely wonderful caretaker for our puppy while we were away. From the start, communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which made us feel completely at ease. She provided daily photos and updates that gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone! She took such great care of everything and treated our puppy like her own, which meant the world to us. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and everything exactly as it should be. You can tell Rylee genuinely cares about what she does and consistently goes the extra mile without hesitation. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us and would happily trust her again in the future. Highly recommend.”

“Sophia did a wonderful job watching Archie. She sent photos, helped out by walking him. I came home to a clean house. I would definitely use Sophia again.”

Tina C.

“I felt comforted knowing Ashlyn was taking care of Atti. She sent me pictures regularly just to ensure my fur baby was doing well. Would definitely hire Ashlyn again!”

Jo S.

“Mirra did a fantastic job with our two dogs, Hobbes and Link. She sent us daily photo updates, and played with our boys a ton to keep them active and tired. She also offered to clean up the house a bit and changed our bed sheets before leaving. We would book with her again!”

About: Growing up, my home was always filled with many dogs and that early experience taught me how to understand different personalities and make every pup feel comfortable. Over the years I’ve also been a trusted dog sitter for friends, neighbors, and family, caring for dogs with all sorts of routines and energy levels. I’m confident with puppies who need structure, older dogs who need patience, and everything in between. What sets me apart is the calm, reliable care I bring to every visit and my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique needs so they feel safe, happy, and right at home. Pet care fits easily into my routine, especially during the summer when I’m home from college and have plenty of availability. I’m able to schedule visits, walks, and check‑ins throughout the day, so pets get consistent attention and care. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs — so your pet feels secure in their own space. I take time to build trust, offer plenty of attention, and keep things clean . Since I’m home from college for the summer and have lots of flexibility, I’m able to give pets consistent check‑ins and companionship throughout the day.

“Kailiany was great! She took great care of my Labrador and house sat for me with no issues. Always had a prompt response when I texted to check in. Would definitely recommend her.”
