Pet care experience

Your dog’s home away from home!

Currently, I live in a home with a fenced in back yard in South Austin with my husband and a puppy on the way. I understand how much a pet can become a family member and the necessities in caring for them. I have always had pets in my life growing up ranging from dogs to cats to fish, and I could not imagine being without them. Depending on a dogs abilities and personalities we provide unique experiences for their own small getaway (parks, lakes, trails, etc.). If they are boarded at my home they will have myself and my loving husband caring for them. I will make sure my schedule benefits your animal and your family to ensure a happy and safe pet! I am happy to help you in anyway I can! I have much experience with big dogs and am happy to administer medicine, bathe the dogs, walk or run them, feedings, etc. Please let me know up front what your dog likes and needs and I will make sure to provide only the best. Repeat customers will receive discounts when their pup stays with us more than once a year! We always recommend meet and greet sessions beforehand to make sure we are the right fit for your pup! We treat your dog as if it was our own! After years of watching dogs through the Rover app, we have become knowledgeable of how to help your dog settle into their new environment, how to keep your dog safe, and how to let your dog enjoy their stay to the fullest!

This was Frankie’s first stay with Alexandra and Shane. Frankie was taken great care of with lots of cuddling time! He’ll definitely want to stay again.

Alexandra is an awesome sitter for our dog Nomi! She sent photos and updates the whole weekend. Nomi looked super cozy and right at home there. We have booked with her before and we will definitely book again!

Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I live in a home with a fenced in backyard in South Austin. The dogs are welcome anywhere in the house, our spacious back yard, and we love to take them for trail walks in our neighborhood! We are often home with them through the entirety of the stay, but whenever we are gone, there are several cameras set up around the home to keep an eye on them.

Pets

A typical day

Every dog’s experience is uniquely based on their personality, physical restraints, and personal needs. We love to take dogs on hikes at local parks or go swimming on the lake! Every day will be a new adventure to keep them active and happy.

No breed preferences. We do require that the dog is house broken, crate trained, and well socialized. We cannot accept reactive dogs at this time. Meet and greets are required before each stay. This provides comfort and assurance to both the sitter and the owner.
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.
