Pet care experience

Available Overnights & Extend Stays

Hi! Thanks for considering me to care for your pets. I’ve been pet sitting around the Rogue Valley for a little over seven years. I’ve cared for dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and routines, from easygoing pets who mostly want company to animals who need medications, frequent potty breaks, walks, or a little more patience. I’m very laid-back, but I take the responsibility seriously. I follow the routine you leave for me, keep you updated with pictures, and try to make things feel as normal as possible for your pets while you’re gone. I also treat your home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, and I’m always glad to meet new pets and their people. 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I know every pet reacts differently when their family is away, so I bring a calm, patient energy and let them settle in at their own pace. I follow your instructions closely when it comes to meals, walks, medications, bedtime routines, and anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know how everything is going while you’re away.

Austin was so conscientious, thoughtful, and attentive to my fur babies. He sent photos every day and tidied up before he left. Even my friends that he met at the dog park were impressed and commented to me. They made a point of getting his contact info for future work.

Austin took care of our dogs and home while my husband and I were away for a few days. From the very start he was very responsive. He came to do a meet and greet and I knew then he would be a good fit because our dogs seemed to really like him. He was an excellent communicator, sent daily updates and pictures, and seemed very attentive to our dogs and home. In fact, one of our dogs had an upset tummy and needed to be fed a special diet and extra probiotics and Austin handled that situation quite well. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. We will definitely be rebooking Austin for future house sits!

Austin was an amazing pet and house sitter. As I was abroad in Europe, I felt at ease knowing he was with my fur babies. He was an awesome communicator, sent many pics, and left the house better than how I left it. I’d give him more than 5 stars if I could!

Austin is a great guy. He bonded with my dog quickly, kept me informed via text as to how things were going and left my house in great shape. I highly recommend using Austin as your pet sitter.

We have had Austin dog sit for over 1 year. He is always here on time, feeding the puppers timely. He plays with our active dog and now a new puppy. He stays at our home and keeps the place spotless. We never have any worries when Austin comes to stay. He is mature, kind and dependable. Thanks, Austin!

We have known Austin for close to 10 years. Over those years he has always been our "go to" house/pet sitter. He has experienced old dogs and puppies with us. He has felt the loss when the old ones went over the rainbow bridge. Austin has became a part of our family. You will be so happy when you bring Austin into yours and your pets lives.

Schedule

My schedule is currently pretty flexible, especially for daytime drop-ins, dog walks, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays. I’m opening my profile back up to new clients, so feel free to reach out with your dates and your pet’s routine. I’m usually able to work something out.

It helps to know your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, medications, likes, dislikes, and any little idiosyncrasies that make them who they are. Please also let me know about allergies, anxiety, leash behavior, escape habits, mobility concerns, or how they react to new people and other animals. The more I know ahead of time, the easier it is for me to keep them safe and comfortable.
