Dog Walking Lakeway

About: Hi! I’m Alejandra, a lifelong animal lover and mom to Ford, my Catahoula/German Shorthaired Pointer mix. Growing up around ranch life, I’ve cared for many different animals, so being around them has always felt natural to me. Because Ford is a high-energy working breed, I’m very comfortable handling active dogs that need structure, exercise, and attention. i’ve also had a miniature yorkie so have experience with small dogs as well - and well Ford is obsessed with all dogs! I provide safe, attentive walks amd playtime and always prioritize your dog’s comfort, safety, and routine. I take daily walks with Ford who gets along with other dogs and cats. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or a relaxed stroll, I’ll match their energy and make sure they get the care they need. I’m reliable, communicative, and always send photo updates so you can see your dog happy and having a great time. My goal is simple: make sure every dog returns home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Im available all day on weekdays and sometimes during the weekends, which allows me to be flexible with exercise, pet care, making homemade dog treats, and making sure your pup has a play and nap schedule. I enjoy staying active and getting outside, and I’m reliable about making sure dogs get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Safety and awareness are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I’ve trained my own dog, Ford, to stay calm and non-reactive on trails and around other dogs, so I’m very comfortable managing different situations during walks. Through that experience, I’ve learned how to read dog behavior and handle a variety of personalities—from high-energy dogs to more cautious or sensitive ones. Whether in my client’s home or out on a walk, I make sure pets feel safe, respected, and well cared for while keeping owners updated with photos and communication.

“Carla is an amazing dog walker! She’s always on time and responsive. Our dog Ciara loves her morning walks with Carla, and comes back super tired every time. She also takes lovely pictures of Ciara for us to see”

About: I didn’t set out to become a dog sitter; it just happened naturally. A friend needed help with their dog, then a neighbor, then a coworker. Ten years later, I’m still doing it, and still loving every minute of it. What I’ve learned from caring for dozens of dogs over the years is that every single one is different. Some need a lot of stimulation and adventure. Some need calm reassurance and a gentle hand. I’ve worked with big dogs and tiny ones, young puppies and senior pups, social butterflies and dogs who take a while to warm up. The ones who take a while to warm up are honestly my favorites. I treat every home I enter and every dog I care for with the same respect and attention I’d want for my own. You’ll always know how your dog is doing. I send photos and updates throughout every visit because I know that’s what matters most when you’re away. My sweet spot is Wednesday evenings through the weekend, that’s when I’m most available and love filling my schedule with new pups! I’m flexible and quick to respond, so if you’re not sure whether I’m free, just message me. Chances are, I can make it work! Good news, I come to you! All of my services take place in your home, which means your pup never has to leave their safe space. I bring the love, you provide the couch. During house sits, your dog runs the show; furniture, bed, all of it is fair game. I’m there to make sure they feel like nothing has changed, just with a new best friend temporarily in charge. I handle medication, special routines, anxious personalities, and everything in between without batting an eye. Your home gets treated like my own tidy, respected, and exactly how you left it. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I know where the nearest 24-hour vets in Austin are and will always prioritize your dog’s safety. The bottom line? Your dog will be so comfortable they might not even miss you. Almost.

About: I have always loved fur animals! I was raised having dogs in the home and helping with neighbor pets when I was available. I am trained to care for puppies, small to medium-size dogs and cats. I do work full-time during the week but flexible with timely bookings and advanced notice. I do believe in giving the pets all the tenderness, love, and care they deserve. I do work full-time during the week and do commute daily. However, the early evenings are my available time. I do often have 3 day weekends and open to checking and being with the pets if needed. I do ask to have some flexibility to run errands, and I do attend classes on the weekends if scheduled. I am a grad student. I treat the client's home as my own. I am a very clean, tidy and responsible person. I am open to overnight visits but do request some flexibility depending on my schedule. I am open and available to walk pets as needed once I am back from work or not attending classes.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages and care needs. I’ve helped family, friends, neighbors and private clients with walks, drop-ins, sitting and bathing. From caring for litters of 11 puppies to managing up to 8 dogs at a time in the home, I am well equipped to help you care for your pups. My experience working in a veterinary setting has set me up to help manage medication administration and postoperative care. I care for pets full time. I have openings for walks and drop-ins early mornings, late afternoons and evenings Monday-Saturday. My availability for sitting is pretty open at the moment. I care for your pets according to your pet’s regular schedule and individual needs. I’m very patient and like to go at your pet’s pace. I’m always honored when I have the opportunity to help folks care for their beloved animals and treat both their home environment and their care needs the same way I do with my own - with kindness, consideration, integrity and respect.

“I can’t recommend Prayas enough! In a short time Bud has become BFFs with Prayas! Since they’ve been walking Bud’s mood & energy level has been incredible. Soon I expect the pounds to shed! Prayas is punctual, professional, caring and willing to accept my last minute requests (huge bonus for this medical professional). Bud gets so excited every time he sees Prayas, which says it all! Look no further if you need a reliable, trustworthy walker/sitter/dog friend!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. While I don’t claim to be a professional trainer or have specialized senior pet care certifications, I’m happy to follow your instructions closely, reinforce routines you’ve already established, and make sure your pet receives plenty of exercise, affection, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom of three, I’m already used to being responsible, organized, and maintaining consistent schedules. I enjoy being active, so dog walks and outdoor play are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply spending time keeping pets company, I’m happy to provide the attention and routine they need. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and cared for while their owners are away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets, I always follow the owner’s instructions to make sure their pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure they get any medications as directed, if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pet and the home with respect. I keep the home clean and secure, follow any house rules, bring in mail or packages if requested, water plants when needed, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while ensuring their owners know they’re in caring and dependable hands.

About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for most of my life since I was 6. I have a strong passion for working with pets and one day I would love to have my own animal care business. I have more experience with cats but I also have experience with dogs. I work well with young to old dogs and cats. I’m currently a full time student and I take classes online. I have plenty of time to give your pet the care and attention it needs. I’m able to stay almost around the clock with your pet if needed. My only job at this moment is pet sitting for personal clients so as you can tell I really enjoy working with pets full time! I always make sure to follow any personal instructions or rules. I will always respect anyone’s homes and pets as I would always want someone to do the same for me! I also will make sure everything is clean before I leave from your home.

About: From looking after a Leonberger throughout his life to now loving a Goldendoodle and Coton du Tulear, my pet care experience spans dogs of all sizes. This diverse background not only deepens my understanding of their unique needs but also enhances my ability to connect with dogs of all sizes, ensuring they receive the most attentive and loving care. I’m currently home from college, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available for morning walks every day of the week, and for drop-ins most mornings and afternoons. When caring for pets at a client's home, my top priority is ensuring a safe and trusting environment. I follow all owner instructions meticulously, from feeding schedules to specific care routines, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings. I conduct regular check-ins and updates to keep owners informed. My approach is to treat every home with respect, maintaining cleanliness and order during each visit, and focusing on providing attentive care tailored to each pet's individual needs.
