I want to make your pets happy!
Pet care experience
I've been in love with animals since the day I was born. I've grown up around dogs pretty much all of my life. I've been around the stocky pitbulls as well as the tiny Chihuahuas. I have also been a cat and bunny parent for the past 4 years, so I have basic knowledge about all types of pets. Animals are a huge part of my life and I don't think I could ever live without one. I am a certified veterinary assistant. So I know how to perform CPR on dogs, and cats. I also know how to properly administer shots of need be.
Reviews
I've known Austin for many years, and one thing I know is that he has such a strong love for animals. He is very patient with them, especially when it comes to the big, hyperactive dogs. He's very attentive to an animals needs and he is always eager to learn more about them. I am very confident that Austin will be a great pet sitter and dog walker.

Safety, trust & environment
I have an indoor/outdoor cat as well as a fully indoor cat. I also have 3 bunnies. The bunnies stay in room to free roam as well as my one indoor cat. My indoor/outdoor cat resides within a fenced area
Information Austin H. would like to know about your pet
If you have pets that are exceptionally hyper, I believe that is good to know ahead of time. I adore hyper dogs, so I have no issues with taking care of them.
A typical day
For a typical day, I like to engage the animals in an activity they can all focus on, such as fetch or a game of chase. I usually like giving treats after playtime to help them feel like they get a hard earned reward. An interesting twist I enjoy is hiding the treats throughout the area for them to find as a little scavenger hunt. I have found that this makes them feel more satisfied and much calmer, which usually leads to them falling asleep and napping
