Your Pet needs a vacation too.
Pet care experience
I grew up with English mastiffs which are very big dogs. I have no problem controlling bigger breeds while walking. I am very aware of my surrounding. From pitts to kitties I’ve dealt with them all.
Reviews
Cant say how well Austin did with our boys, and trust me they are a handful! He gave us updates and pics throughout the stay. We know next time we go away both our home and our boys will be in good hands!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Austin and his truly loving way with animals. Our girl has passed now but Austin will be the "go to" sitter when we get another baby. I know from experience that he's absolutely the best and loves and cares for each dog or cat as if it's his own. You cannot entrust your baby to a better care giver.
I cannot recommend Austin highly enough. He is totally reliable, professional and caring. He has been walking and caring for Shadow for a few months now and she is always super excited to see him and cannot wait to get out the door! Austin is knowledgeable and has been invaluable in helping to socialize Shadow with other dogs. It is reassuring to get photo updates and great to see that he is so clearly having a fabulous time.
We were so pleased with the care and attention Austin gave to our little princess! He treated her just like a part of the family and beyond pleased with the love and care he showed her. We will definitely be using him again!!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have cats in my home so bringing dogs and cats to my home is not a good idea. But in a clients home I keep a watchful eye and always ask if the sneaky pups have a typical escape route for flight risk dogs. Another important thing is dos and don’ts of there special friend e.g. favorite toy, treats, favorite scratching spot, meds, what makes them feel comfortable, and what can upset them.
Information Austin F. would like to know about your pet
If they have any medical problems or allergies. Do they have any behavioral/escaping issues. What is there favorite toy/Treat. Lastly I have to know their favorite thing to do. Does your dog prefer to hang out and sleep all day or to they wanna always be outside.
A typical day
I love seeing how excited these dogs get when they get to go out. I especially love high energy dogs. Taking them to the park and playing fetch or just rolling around in the sun and getting scratches. Or hitting the trail and going for a mild run to tucker them and me out.

I’m currently working during weekdays in Fremont around 7am but I am free in the evenings typically available after 4pm. Traffic and distance of client can effect time as well. I am completely open on the weekends. Over night visits work out great.
