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.

Addie is a fantastic and thoughtful host and walker for our husky mix. He loves seeing her and staying at her home.

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

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.

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.

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.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
