Premier Pet Care Professional
Pet care experience
Had pet care issues in the past? Get anxious and constantly worry when leaving your pet behind? Want to know you are your pet is experiencing top quality care? Then you clicked on the right person. When you book your pet care with me, I am making a promise to provide the absolute best pet experience for you and your furry family members. Do not hesitate. I fill up very quickly and if I have an opening it will not last long. What you are paying for: I have over 15 years of experience working with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I take the care of your animal very seriously and make sure to stay in the know on best practice techniques should difficult situations arise. Finally, you are getting proven quality care. The reviews and almost 2 month lead time on bookings speak for themselves. Schedule: I work a unique schedule. Three days of the week I am normally gone for about 8hrs. 8am-4pm. That is generally Tues, Wed, Thursday but can vary. Sometimes I can make it back during lunch those days, but that depends on location and schedule for that week, so best if the dog can go that long or if alternative care plans can take place during that time. I'm flexible with figuring that out. The other days my life revolves around taking care of Chattanooga's cats and dogs. For boarding/sitting this means unless you live very close to my work, your animal would need to be okay being left alone for a normal 8 hour work day on those 3 days. I am more than able to to exercise with the dog and won't be overpowered by large breeds. Important: If you have a cat and dogs I can adjust the cat rates for you. I only have cat rates higher as I have had an increased number of cat only stays which were earning me almost no money once travel was factored in. I enjoy training dogs as well, so if you are interested in having some training done with your dog during their boarding/my stay feel free to let me know.
Reviews
Austin’s been great! I reached out to him last minute and he was able to stop by to take my dog on a walk.
Thank you Austin for taking such good care in a challenging situation - and for keeping us so well informed! We are so relieved and happy to have found such a conscientious person to take care of our new little companion.
Austin was amazing with my nervous dogs! He also sent me plenty of pictures so I was sure my pups were comfy and having a great time. Thanks so much, Austin!
I had to select one star but it be jibe !!! Austin of all the people I have used with Rover by far the worst. He was late to our meet and great because he forgot. He did not show or call to let me know he would be late for his first visit.. he was 3 hrs late and then the next visit that was for 8 he showed up at 11:40 pm . After I was sincerely full of anxiety I called him and he was on the way because he had personal commitment to something else that I was not made aware of prior that he would come so late. My problem is he agreed to the initial times and then did his own thing! I will never use him again I worried my entire trip. I will use Rover again!!

I live in an apartment. We do have lots of dog accomodations on site for the pups ( play areas, baths etc). I only live with my fiance and a cat so the environment is very relaxed. At your place I will obviously follow whatever type of exercise and daily routine you normally have them do.
Home
Information Austin A. would like to know about your pet
My major desire is that they are up to date on shots and medications because I do not want to bring home diseases to my animals. I am comfortable with any breed or size. Please do let me know if the dog is reactive to other dogs or people, so that I can manage that accordingly.
A typical day
My goal is to provide your animals with the best experience possible, without throwing off their routines and comfort. I aim to be an extension of you for your animals. Any activities you and your animal regularly enjoy I am more than happy to also do.

The days I am not at work are spent running around town taking care of the cities animals. Due to the nature of working with animals sometimes my timing on drop-ins and walks can vary day to day. I promise to get as close to agreed upon times for these events as possible and will keep you updated should anything cause changes to that timing. NOTICE: I cannot adjust the timing but I have adjusted my rates around the following expectations. When requesting a drop in visit from me that is generally what I look at to be around a 15 minutes max take care of necessities visit. This would look something like arriving feeding your animal and allowing it to go potty or anything else it needs then leaving. If you would like more time spent with your animal via walking or extra play time then please book the appointment as a walk. I just want to make sure I am transparent as to my process so that we are all on the same page.
