Trying to earn money for honeymoon!

Pet care experience

Ever since I was a child, I have always had animals. Growing up, we had dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, frogs, everything! I love animals with all my heart and have extensive experience caring for them. My neighbors often called upon myself and my sisters to pet sit, and in doing so, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, activity levels and temperament. I’ve cared for a female in heat with two other male dogs in the same house, I’ve administered medicine in a cat’s ear, and I’ve even learned how to feed a chinchilla! My husband and I treat our own fur baby, Nara, like she is our kid. She’s a German shepherd mix and very high energy, so I am well-versed in managing this in dogs. She also has a sensitive stomach, so I know the importance of following feeding instructions to the dot. Having been a college athlete, I can walk your dog as far as needed.

Austin walked my dog both days over the weekend at my last minute request. She read my care instructions and took care of my dog as directed. She was on time and reliable. Thank you Austin!

I’m a returning client and I have to say Austin is always above and beyond! She makes me feel safe and happy to request anytime I need a pet care for my family trip. Austin rocks!

Austin is on top of my ‘Go-to’ when I have to look for a sitter. In fact, she is more than a sitter. She is a life saver! She truly cares and considers what is needed for my loved one and go above and beyond. Austin rocks!

Safety, trust & environment

I understand animal behavior and have worked with difficult pets, so if that is a concern, you are in good hands. I will take any instructions you give me regarding walking tips to make sure your dog and I have a fun and safe walk together. Having experience with my own pets, I know how to enter and leave a home making sure no animals escape, so you can rest assured everyone is safe.

Information Austin D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have any concerns or special requirements for your furbaby. For example, with my own dog, I prefer she is not walked next to busy streets as she gets spooked by loud cars and motorcycles. I want the walk and drop in visits to be as comfortable for your pet as possible.

A typical day

I love walking dogs because I love spending time with animals and being outside. On a typical day, I take my own dog for about 4-5 walks! We love going to the park and running around. I have trained my dog to do various commands such as shake, high five, speak, turn around, and roll over, so I can do these with your dog if you would like!
