Cat Sitting Lockhart

“I requested Katy’s services on short notice and couldn’t be happier. She asked all the right questions and was communicative and reassuring. My cats are a tad shy but she was able to coax them out of their shells for play time and pets. She was thorough and respectful and I will absolutely be booking with her in the future! Thanks, Katy!”

Christopher P.

Stefano C.

About: I genuinely love animals and am happy to carr for yours like they are my own. Lots of love, snuggles and and playtime. I've had several senior pets and am confident in caring for them and have raised dogs from puppies and am comfortable caring for them as well. I work from home and can work from anywhere so pet sitting works well with my schedule. There are only a few days a week where I have meetings at a particular time, otherwise I can work around the pet needs. Lq I care for pets by creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that keeps normal routines as consistent as possible. I follow each pets feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully and make sure doors, and gates are secure. Building trust is very important to me. I take time to get to know each pet's personality, respect their boundaries, and provide plenty of patience, , attention, and positive interaction. I also keep the home clean and tidy, properly clean up after pets, and watch for any changes in their behavior, appetite and overall well-being.

“Megan cares for your animals like they are her own. She is extremely communicative and caring. I would highly recommend her!”

Nicole F.

“Corina did such a great job taking care of my kitty and home while I was away for a while. She sent photos daily and offered updates on things happening around my house too. She cleaned up her linens even though I’d told her not to worry about it, so that was unexpected and nice. A great caretaker for sure!”

Melanie H.

“Monica is wonderful! She is responsible and punctual. I was pleasantly surprised how receptive my cats were to her. She has a warm caring energy that made me feel comfortable letting her take care of my babies.”

About: Growing up in the country, I have grown up with all sorts of animals (dogs, cat, rabbit, cows, longhorns). However, dogs have been the animal with me throughout my entire life. We got our first family dog when I was 6 and have had 3-10 dogs at a time since then! Needless to say, I'm definitely a dog person. I have experience feeding, walking, and washing dogs, and can do some basic self-taught training (sitting, down, shake). I also have house-sat and pet-sit for some family friends' and my friends' parents on several occasions. My house is full of animal love. I have a 3-year-old Plott hound mix (named Nova), a 4-year-old German Shepard (named Goose), and a 8 month old cat (named Ary). They all have their own special quirks, but are so funny and love running and playing! Nova is very food motivated and loves to run in circles and play in water, Goose is very toy motivated and could play frisbee for hours without a break if we let him, and Ary is the definition of a "lap cat" but loves being our pest control when she see an bug. I hope you give me the chance to give your fur babies some extra love and attention! I'm a full-time social worker! I can provide overnight visits whenever, but walking and drop-ins are only available on weekends and then during school scheduled breaks (my availability will reflect it)! In my home, one of my dogs is crated due to her liking to get in the trash. So, I am easily able to crate your dog if necessary and of course feed, water, play, and walk them as needed! Also, more than willing to send you pictures of your dogs throughout the visit if that's something you want :)

“Elysia was absolutely great with my fur babies. They were 4-1/2 months old and are still in the monster mode. Her household was a great fit. I would definitely use her services again. I loved that she came to my home to evaluate the compatibility of my kids in her home. She’ll be glad they will be a little less rambunctious next time .”

About: With nearly four years of dog-sitting experience, including caring for my own childhood pup, I understand the importance of trust and personalized attention when it comes to your pet. Working from home allows me the flexibility to offer care while you’re at work or enjoying time with friends. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some company during the day, I’ve got it covered!

Since I’m already walking by the lake every day, bringing a furry friend along just adds to the fun! Whether it’s a casual stroll or an energetic play session, your dog will have an adventure-filled day while you’re away. Let me make sure they enjoy Austin’s outdoor beauty to the fullest!! While I live in an apartment, I have plenty of space to comfortably crate your dog if needed, with options in the living room or entryway.

I treat every dog with the same care and love as my own, and I’m committed to respecting your home too. You can trust me to leave your space exactly as I found it, ensuring your dog feels safe, happy, and well-cared for.

About: I've been a singular pet sitter since I was offering overnights while my neighbors were out of town in primary school. I have a very holistic and intuitive relationship to animals that provides safety and insight to understand the difference difference between an animal needing emergency medical care and their primal need to interact with the outdoors. Excited to learn , connect, and activate my next furry friend! I am currently on dialysis Monday Wednesday and Friday while in school full time, and balancing my event business. I enjoy working with animals on a part time basis looking forward to connecting with animals and families in alignment. In my home pers are them family members that come to visit. I encourage manners to my human son and my furry guests are no exception. I've had quite a lot of experience as a dog trainer and pet sitter

“Kristina was fantastic with my cat Fable. She is super responsible, very accommodating with time schedules and goes out of her way to help. I had an early morning flight and she was kind enough to come over at 6am to get the apartment keys before I left. During the house sitting she always made sure to send daily updates of Fable and informed me of how she was that day. I highly recommend Kristina for pet sitting as she is a trustworthy, caring and overall fantastic and does a great job of taking care of your pet!”
