Friendly pet-loving Austinite
Pet care experience
I'm a native Austinite who lives with a sweet twelve-year-old schnoodle (miniature schnauzer/miniature poodle) named Kerby, a feisty 7 year old chihuahua named Jellybean, and a geriatric chihuahua named Chico, along with my partner, Adam. I have over 15 years of dog sitting experience and have also grown up with several pets and will always put their needs before my own. I’m a regular volunteer and have fostered with both Austin Pets Alive & Austin Humane Society so I have experience handling dogs of all sizes and breeds. When I watch your pups, I will do everything I can to keep them on their daily routines including going for daily walks, engaging in playtime, working on training exercises and tricks, sticking to feeding schedules, or whatever else your pup(s) need to be comfortable at home! I am happy to stay the night at your home if your dog requires that - most evenings I just like to relax on the couch with the pups and watch a good movie! I work from home on Fridays. On Monday through Thursday, I work at my company's office from 10 am-4 pm so your pet will still get constant potty breaks during the workweek. I work in a pet-friendly office so who knows, your fur baby may be able to accompany me on some days!
Reviews
took very very good care of my elderly dog, he had a blast
Allie was amazing! She responded to a last minute request for a drop in very quickly and was able to drop in to feed and care for my cat on the same day. She updated me with every task she did and included pictures of my sweet boy when I missed him most. She was very friendly and thorough! Would definitely book again!
Allie is a wonderful sitter and companion for our 3 year old terrier poodle mix. She is flexible, friendly, professional and passionate about her love for dogs. Recommended at the highest level!
Allie did great with my bunch of clowns. She sent tons of pics and messages assuring me the pets were all going great. I was nervous to leave my old 13 year old and the pics she sent let me know she was just fine. Thanks so much Allie!

Safety, trust & environment
I will always follow your instructions for taking pets outside or crating them. Dogs can be kept separate until they are more comfortable around each other. Meet & greets in advance can help establish trust as well.
Home
Information Allie B. would like to know about your pet
For house-sitting: Would my dogs be welcome to stay with me at your home, or will I need to make other arrangements for them? What is their normal feeding and potty schedule? Does your pup need regular walks, or just outside to potty? If we go on walks, is your dog friendly with other dogs on walks, or should we steer clear of others? Any other quirks I should be aware of?
A typical day
I like to keep dogs on their routine. Staying on feeding schedules and going on walks will be a part of their visit if that is their norm!

Availability
My work schedule is very flexible so I try to be at your home as much as possible when I’m housesitting. If I do drop in visits, I can generally work with pet owners to find times that work within my meeting schedules at work M-F.
