Highlights
Pet care experience
Supervision & fenced yard
I specialize in providing large dogs (but host all sizes) a happy and comfortable environment with plenty of room inside and outside to play and relax. I host only one client at a time unless permission is given by the owners so that you know your dog has the upmost attention. If enough notice is given, I can even bring your pup with me to work pending applicable vaccinations required at my work. I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets. I currently live in a home with a fully fenced yard, which provides a safe and secure place for dogs to play and get plenty of exercise. I also have a friendly Black Lab who gets along great with other dogs and enjoys having new friends to run around with. For three years, I volunteered at a veterinary hospital where I helped care for dogs and other animals. That experience gave me valuable hands-on experience working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs, and it helped me develop a strong understanding of responsible and attentive pet care. Over the years, I’ve also house-sat and pet-sat for many friends and families while they were out of town. I take pride in making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding routines, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. In my professional career, I work in Human Resources, where trust, responsibility, and reliability are essential. I understand how important it is to feel confident about who is caring for your pets and home. I’m always happy to provide updates, photos, and regular communication while you’re away—even daily if you’d like—so you always know how your pets are doing. If you’re heading out of town, you can relax knowing your pets will be cared for in a safe, comfortable environment by someone who genuinely loves animals and takes the responsibility seriously
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
He is just absolutely awesome with Nova. I never have a doubt she is well cared for. Have used Austin a few times and it is always a great experience. Highly recommend.

Austin was a great dog sitter for Moose! He kept me updated with messages and pictures - and I’m sure Moose really enjoyed having a playmate, Lucy, as well. Would 100% use Austin again and recommend you do too!

Our dog Luna always loves going to Austin’s house!

Atlas had a great time with Austin, and Austin provided quick updates on how Atlas was settling in being there for the first time. Would definitely recommend!

Austin is an awesome dog sitter! I highly recommend him. We’ve used him multiple times, and he has always been reliable, flexible, personable, and fantastic with our pups. He sends frequent photos and updates, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely love Austin and are always happy to be at his home. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!


We had a wonderful experience with Austin! He took excellent care of Zeus and treated him like part of the family. We loved receiving regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Zeus was getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Austin even took him on outings and adventures(with our permission), making sure he stayed active and happy. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We are so grateful for the outstanding care and communication throughout Zeus’s stay. We would highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring for their pets!
