House Sitting in Lago Vista

“Christine is always amazing with our pups! We get picture updates and I never have to worry about the dogs while we are on vacation! I know that they are super happy with her and that’s such a great peace of mind for us!”

“This is the second time we've had Katie watch our pups and she is excellent. All three are senior dogs, one of which takes medicine twice a day. We trust that they are all in great hands with her and highly recommend her services. Thanks Katie!!”

“Josh was super amazing with our pups! I felt very much at ease going out of town knowing they were in good hands. :) He sent pictures throughout the weekend and had very good communication. I will definitely recommend to family and friends and will look forward to using his services in the future if he is available. :)”

“Jorden rocks! We frequently book with her for house sitting of our golden retrievers. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and goes the extra mile. We’re so grateful for her.”

Chance E.

“Did an excellent job. Performed the tasks he was asked to and went above and beyond to keep the place clean and tidy while I was gone. Good response time and cats did very well with him. Would definitely recommend and book again.”

Aaron E.

“Reese was great!! She accepted last minute after another sitter cancelled and was able to do a call to talk about what we needed. She kept us posted during our trip and then even stepped in to assist with another trip. We appreciated her taking care of our pups with all their special needs. We’re already booked with her again this weekend. Thank you, Reese!”

“Kayla was AMAZING. We had never left our animals before (three Aussies, two lizards, and a parakeet), so we were nervous about how they would respond for someone completely new. To summarize, I’m pretty sure they never even blinked at eye at us being gone for a week because they were so happy and well taken care of by Kayla! Every photo she sent (we received daily check-ins!) they were smiling away without a care in the world! We were instantly relieved and felt completely at ease knowing they were so happy. We also had a major plumbing emergency at our home while we were away, and Kayla took care of everything! Even though our home was new to her at the time of the emergency, it was only her first day there, she immediately located our main water line, shut everything off, moved our antique furniture to ensure it wasn’t damaged, and even stayed and communicated with our plumber through the entire thing! Because of her extremely quick response and action, our home was spared from major damage. We are so grateful that we have found her, and we will definitely be asking her back the next time we need our beloved animals and home cared for!”

“The best. Exceeded expectations far and beyond for Oswald and I. Frequent updates while I was away, and house was cleaner than I left it. If I could put 10 stars I would.”

Audrey C.

“Alyssa was an amazing pet sitter for us. We received updates everyday. The three dogs were taken care of and the house looked awesome when we came home. We recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a great sitter for their furry friends!”

Cameron D.

“Takes care of Lace like her own. I can work all day knowing shes in good care!”

Felicita S.

“Sarah was great with Koda and sent me so many good pictures and videos of my boy - she even went out of her way to get him treats and make sure I approved of them!!! Would definitely book again.”

Megan M.

“We got daily updates and photos of our pups while we were away! Lucia even got our very anxious and shy dog to come around to her, which doesn’t usually happen for a very long time. We’ve been lucky to find such a sitter in our area ☺️”

Amanda P.

“Meni was so outstanding! She had great energy and fun with our two dogs and tourtise & communicated & updated us while we were out of town. She had great energy & helped with my slow to warm pup & my pup who has some pancreatic health struggles. She took great care of our house, and space & was so kind & courteous. Highly recommend her & would definitely invite her to sit again!”

About: ✳️ No holiday upcharge ✳️Guaranteed daily check-ins and photos for all stays While I am new to Rover, I am extremely familiar with dogs. I foster with 2 different non profit agencies and actually have 3 pups of my own. Aka the stooges or the 3 musketeers as I call them. My own dogs range in size from 13lbs to 105lbs and in age from 3 years to 9 years. All were raised from a puppy stage so I have experience with that stage, too. DOGS LIKE TO LEARN: I am not a professional trainer but have taken what I’ve learned from putting my own 3 through training and applied to foster and visiting pups. You’re welcome to pick something from the list and I’d be happy to start the training with your dog on these! This includes the following: - walking on a dedicated side when in leash (you pick left or right) - heel - sit - place ( huge on this since it allows dogs to settle their anxiousness) - short distance recall - whistle training - clicker training - treat training - spin - roll over - army crawl - leave it - off - take it - break (release from place) - paw - kennel - lay down - drop it - wait (helpful for dogs who like to rush out the door before you) - watch me (helps me out eye contact and focus) - sit before owner opens kennel YOUR PUP: will be treated as one of my own with any additional instructions you provide. I have a full time work from home job that allows me to be with my dogs as much as I’d like. I work my schedule around my dogs meaning I workout when it’s their exercise time or I run errands during their usual down time. I rarely if ever watch tv because I end up spending so much time with my pups routine and care. I truly enjoy it! My home: I have a quarter acre fenced property with a huge covered patio for dogs to enjoy in shade. There are child gates set up within my home to keep dogs in designated areas. This ensures my pups or fosters have access to water stations and dog door for yard access when needed. Yes, I have a dog door that accommodates for dogs up to 130lbs. I have 3 water stations set up in my home and dedicated kennels for our larger and smaller pups when needed. If needed, I am Happy to crate my pups while yours is being cared for in my mentioned care rotation. They are very used to both kennel and out of kennel routines as I have had foster dogs in my home. For dogs with mobility issues that still want to get out and about, I have a dog trailer / stroller that allows them to lay inside a shaded area while still seeing the outdoors. Your home: house sitting and check-ins include more than just your pups care and I’m happy to offer these: - Check mail / sign for any packages - plant care - lights to leave on - any light household chores (vacuum, dishes, laundry, surface cleaning, trash takeout) - being present for any home maintenance appts while you’re away (to match scheduled stay) - communicating w/ any visitors while you’re away (want me to lie to your nosey neighbors? Need me to tell a regular solicitor some info?)

“We rebooked the house sitting service with Rebecca and she was great! She will go above and beyond for your fur baby! She didn’t just house sit, she kept our dog very active each day. She played with him way more than our last sitter! She also made sure to set up a play date with our neighbors dog each day. Communication is so important to me and Rebecca was really great with keeping me updated; she sent me pictures of kylo everyday. She always answered the phone when I called a couple of times so that really helped make me feel at ease. We will definitely continue to use her services!”

Stephanie R.

“He took excellent care of my my dog while away for a last minute trip for work with great communication. My dog seemed to really like him.”

Talia C.

“Deanna was GREAT, got there on time took very good care of my little boy Max, he has back leg problems and Deanna took the time with him and made sure he was very comfortable. I would recommend Deanna over and over and next time in the Austin area will use her again. Thank you very much Deanna.”

Andrew R.

“Stephanie watched my dog for a short week when I was out of town. She took excellent care of Sadie and sent me updates - even when I was out of service so I had something to come back to! I came home to a happy dog and a house that was cleaner than when I left! She even did some grooming. Couldn’t be happier with Stephanie’s service and would definitely hire her to watch Sadie again in the future. I’ve already recommended her to my friends.”

About: I have been house-sitting/pet-sitting for about ten years now! I am able to work weekends and i have a very flexible schedule. I would love to treat your pet to the best care! Pet care fits into my weekly routine with ease. I have very few responsibilities, as I am home from college, and would love to fully commit myself to pet care! I care for my pets personally to the highest quality of care I can provide. I currently have a 5 year old dog and 14 year old one. I accommodate to the 14 year old ones dietary and physical restrictions daily, and am sure to give them all equally a lot of TLC! I take this attitude when I take care of others pets as well.

About: I've always been a huge lover of animals! My grandparents took me to AKC shows and I became obsessed with knowing as many dog breeds as possible. I worked in animal welfare for 3 years with dogs and cats, including working in the spay/neuter clinic. I am experienced with big and strong breeds. I also really love cats! I have a cat and a Border Collie at home. My full time job is a 911 Dispatcher. I work a rotating schedule, of 12 hour days, 6a-6p but it's usually 4 days a week. I'd prefer to care for pets on my off days. At the moment I can house sit but am not able to provide frequent potty breaks during the day. I'm not open to caring for pets in my home. I live in an apartment and have pets of my own so it's not set up for more.
