Pet care experience
Urban farm family seeks wet noses
We are a family of five on a mini urban farm in North Austin that is perfect for dogs with lots of energy or who love watching "chicken TV" as we call it. (The coop is well fenced, so the rabbits and ducks have learned to ignore the dogs, too.) We lost both of our elderly pets during the pandemic, and Rover has been a wonderful way to invite dogs and cats back into our lives. Our young adult children, ages 16-20, are great Rover helpers, and they have an endless supply of snuggles ready to give your pet. We only board one animal a time (or two, if they are from the same family), so your fur baby will get all our attention while we have them. We also stay in close contact with pet owners to share photos and updates.

Ratings and reviews
Addie is a fantastic and thoughtful host and walker for our husky mix. He loves seeing her and staying at her home.
Addie and her family do such a great job with our senior pup! Highly recommend her as a sitter.
Addie and Frank were wonderful. Their huge fenced backyard was a great escape for our dogs, they followed all of our instruction, and most importantly kept the dogs safe. We would highly recommend them and use them again! Thanks again. MIZ
Addie and Frank were an amazing team to care for Roxy while I was out! Great, loving home for Roxy’s staycation and she was very comfortable with the family. Appreciate the great care provided!
Addie was fantastic! Great to work with- we got regular updates and Ruthie loved her stay!
Addie is a great communicator and our dog loves going on walks with her.

Schedule
We love taking care of animals in between our remote work and online college classes. Our neighborhood is great for short little walks in the middle of the day, and during nice weather, it’s not unusual for us to work outside while the dog plays in the yard.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We care for Rover dogs just like we would our own! We have had so many wonderful guest pets stay at our house over the past five years that Rover has become a big part of our lives. Most of our clients are repeat customers.
A typical day
Walks on the neighborhood are a must. We have a greenbelt nearby, but we are also just as likely to play fetch in the backyard. Our half-acre backyard is a treasure trove of entertainment for dogs of all sizes.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsDogs over 1 year oldSpayed and neutered dogs onlyNo females in heatTakes only 1 client at a timeAddie can host up to 2 pets per night
- It’s good to know about your pet’s sleeping and eating habits and how often they need to go on walks or to use the bathroom. We can usually talk about that via text or during drop-off. Important: If your dog has anxiety/attachment issues (ie, will bark if not in the same room, scratch at doors/floors, excessive jumping/biting), please let me know. We are passionate dog lovers who don't mind some high energy pets, but we are not able to care for dogs that cannot be left alone for up to 1-2 hours or who are extremely high-energy/babied.
