“Sarah was great...she provided detailed information, sent amazing pictures and overall the dogs seemed to have a good time. Will definitely request her again, and suggest others do the same!”

About: Growing up with both dogs & cats my entire life, I’ve been around a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I work well with every animal I come across and enjoy caring for any & all — this includes experience with puppy care & training! I’m kind, fun-loving, sociable, and can adapt based on an animal’s needs. I lead with compassion for animals & their owns alike. From family to friends, I always ensure your fur baby is looked after with the utmost of care. As I’m currently working from home, I am readily available for walks, check-ins, house sitting, and boarding throughout the day/night. Overnight stays are no issue here either! Depending on the instructions received from the owner(s), I will be sure to follow any necessary requirements to ensure your pet is looked after & loved for the time that I am there. Whether it’s forms of training, being let in & out, walks, check-ins, etc. - nothing is ever too much. Favorite treats, toys & activities are to be followed to make sure your pet (or pets) is as comfortable & happy as can be!

About: 🦄 Austinite, working from home with a flexible schedule! I absolutely love animals. I've cared for cats, dogs, bunnies, lizards, guinea pigs, and more. I’m considered the go-to house sitter in my friend groups. In a lot of ways, I think animals are smarter than us, and I feel completely relaxed & present when spending time with them. And the feeling seems to be mutual! Especially when it comes to the more shy pets who usually keep their distance. I can naturally read their body language, and actually find it easier to bond with animals than with people. I recognize and respect the amount of trust it takes to leave your home and pets with a new person. I'm organized + tidy, and will care for your home and dote on your fur babies like they're my own. I love sharing cute photos and videos so you can have peace of mind and feel close to your pets, even while you’re away.

“Sierra was super communicative and helpful!! I don’t usually let people help me take care of my babygirl, and Sierra made sure she was taken care of. She did more than I asked of her which really helped ease a lot of my anxiety! I highly recommend reaching out to her and letting her take care of your babies!”

About: Austinite-I have had many animals as my children were growing up. Now i miss the connection and have the time to meet and care for your animals. Wanting to grow my sitting experience I work monday thru friday but I have plenty of time to be with your animal in the morning and afternoon and anytime on the weekends. I take the utmost pride in connecting with animal, i like to give them affection and care that they need. I am very clean and responsible with these precious creatures.

About: Whether your furry friend is a standoffish cat, a hyper dog, or an opera-singing bird, I am the capable caretaker you can trust to suit their needs and make them feel safe + loved! My schedule as a pet sitter is open to any client! On a trip to see family? Only gone for an hour or two? No problem! I can come over day or night. Whatever your animal needs, I can provide! I do not currently board at my own home, but am available to sit/walk your pet in your area.

“Amiah was very friendly, communicated with me during each visit, and took wonderful care of my dog! She sent pictures, played with him, and gave him his medication at the requested times! My dog got a small cut prior to Amiah taking care of him and she ensured that it stayed clean while we were gone. I highly recommend Amiah and will definitely be asking her to care for my dog in the future.”

About: A safe, clean home away from home, where every dog is treated like family. With lots of love, personalized attention, and help from my loyal German Shepherd, assistant, Lucy, your pup will feel right at home! But sets me apart from others is I can help crate dogs, potty train, to giving them their meds and walking them with a ginger lead for those elderly ones. I am currently working less than part-time. And for me, there’s no better way to spend that free time than with dogs. I also include them in my daily tasks. Every Dog’s comfort level is respected. I have both large and small crates available for dogs who are crate trained or whose owners prefer scheduled crate time (up to 90 minutes per day). I also use an indoor playpen and separate areas within the home to create healthy boundaries. Allow for quiet rest periods and ensure all dogs remain comfortable and safe. My goal is to provide personalized care, maintain each dog routine as closely as possible, and create a calm, loving environment, where pets feel secure, happy and part of the family while you’re away. It might be cliché, but I treat every dog as if it was my own.

About: We are a family of 5 - Erika (Spouse) Me (Patrick), Cailen (Little boy of 3yrs), Cherie (Boxer) and Chiquito (Chihuahua) always 5 in same room, love at all time and caring having fun in yard, water and running! Nobody cares about dogs like we do... provide treats, care and very loving towards dogs. Dogs travel with us, dog follows us everywhere, shaded back yard so they can run, they swim with us in the little kids pool they take sun or simply chill.... very easy life here and plenty of place to run or relax as needed. No furniture in house is off limits. You break or chew then we lose that privilege. Simple, dog fun and be reassured we will treat your dog as we'd expect you treat ours.

“Kaleigh is always amazing! Even with last-minute requests, she never hesitates to step in and take great care of my babies. I trust her completely and truly appreciate how reliable and loving she is. Highly recommend!”

“We've been working with Sierra for 5 months now, and she is fantastic. She checks on our dogs during the day when we're at work. She's been so good with all the animals; she plays with our high-energy, 80lb GSD puppy and takes out our little old man, who's 9lb and 15.5 years old, so she covers quite the range with our dogs. Sierra is great to communicate with, has been really responsive and collaborative on booking times. She even goes above and beyond and grabs packages when she sees them, which is not something we expect, but I think speaks to her character. I highly recommend Sierra if you're looking for someone to watch your pets.”

“Chealsea is so wonderful! My outdoor cat didn’t need as much tending to but with cold weather I definitely was glad she could get a look at her and make sure all was ok. Would book Chealsea again of course! Peace of mind with good check ins!”

“Treka was a great help with my Doberman Sasha and Pomeranian Foxy when I went out of town for a week. She checked on them and my house daily and sent me updates with pictures. I felt confident they were safe and cared for. I would highly recommend her. My pups have made a friend in Treka.”

About: Since I was little I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. At one point having Six dogs in the house and four cats (one of thoses cats being my own <3). it's been years and me and my emotional support cat got your back :)! I am currently a student studying for my DAT, but I stay flexible! Let me know before if you have a restrictive time and we will work from there. I value safely over anything. Of course I want all pets to have a fun time with me, but If saftly is in question, we always turn the other way.

“Geraldine was extremely communicative! Sent us pictures, updates and we can tell she really took care of our dogs doing drop ins. We greatly appreciate her going above and beyond!”

About: Both my wife and I have cared for pets for about 15 years now and have lots of experience with both dogs and cats. Whether it’s dogs,cats, birds, or fish we have the experience to care for them. During your pets stay you can expect daily walks and lots of play time, as well as any other special requirements that you may ask for. Rest assure your pets/family members will have the time of their life and daily pictures will be sent during their stay. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message. Having several doggos of our own we implement that into our daily routine by including them in our daily walks, and daily dog park visits. We have a big fenced in yard and live in a secure community. Working from home helps us constantly keep an eye on your pets.

“Kylie was great! She came for 10 days while I was out of town. Showed up everyday and sent me pictures and details each day. My dog ended up having an upset stomach and she handled it no question. Will absolutely be using again.”

“This is my second time booking Kayla to watch my dog, and she’s truly amazing! The first time I was out for vacation and booked Kayla to watch my dog overnight for a few days. She was the first River sitter I used, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She is incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs and gave him the right amount of love and cuddles. She cleaned my apartment and sent several updates on my puppy while I was away which made me feel so much better about being away from my dog. I booked her again for a drop in visit and will be booking again as needed! Can’t recommend enough!”

Amanda G.

“Mandy was amazing and our pets loved her! She was very communicative and takes her job watching our loved ones very seriously! I loved all of the communication while we were gone and didn’t feel like we had to worry while being on vacation! Will rebook with her for sure!!”

About: I love animals (probably more than people lol)! I have worked at an animal hospital for two years. Interacted with pets of all shapes and sizes! I grew up with dogs and started pet sitting as a preteen-friends, family, neighbors. I’ve fostered and babysat cats and dogs for long and short stays, including puppies and older cats. I can administer medication. I rescued my dog as a puppy and I have a big interest in dog psychology. I continue to train and work with my dog everyday, as it brings me a lot of joy. I even started a dog training business with my sister and our own podcast (we’re in the early stages!), as we share a love for our four-legged companions! We help coach other owners and touch on topics like dog behavior, holistic health, diet, the vet, dog myths, different training styles, and everything in between! Being around animals makes me so happy! I cherish the time I spend with my dog as he is my favorite companion and I would love the opportunity to get to spend time with your beloved companion(s). :) I work part time so I have time to care for your pet during the day and the days I work I’m not gone for too long! I have a fenced yard and one dog to keep your pet company, if desired. He his crate trained and I can crate your pet if needed as well! I give my dog lots of potty breaks and exercise and play time as well as nap time and training time-keep his mind and body fulfilled and meet his needs:) I plan to do the same with your pet, obviously with their specific needs in mind!
