Pet care experience

A fun, upbeat dog sitter

I have been working with all sorts of dogs for about 8 years now. They just bring an un-found joy into your heart that you would never know or expect. When I was younger, I built my dog walking service, volunteered at a dog kennel and boarding center, and then worked for a mobile groomer for a few years. Dogs listen to me and I listen to them. They respect me and in turn, I respect them and their needs and wants. I am currently taking Veterinary Assistant classes to better help me take care of dogs in my care.

Austin is amazing! I felt very comfortable leaving our dog, Frito in his care. We don’t leave Frito very often so that is saying a lot. My kids even came along to “interview” Austin to make sure they felt comfortable and they did. Austin is knowledgeable, kind, very good with dogs and a great communicator! I definitely recommend him!

Austin is experienced with dogs and he is very kind and patient with our dog, who has separation anxiety. Austin has a beautiful yard and paths nearby for doggies to enjoy.

Austin was an absolutely incredible sitter for my dog; he played with her, sent lots of updates, and he knows so much about dogs! I learned a lot about different nervous behaviors just from talking to him. This was my dog's first time staying with a sitter for a day and it couldn't have gone better, I would definitely recommend Austin!

Schedule

I am currently attending college at Cal. State San Marcos & MiraCosta College the summer studying about dogs and cats. Your dog and I will have a fun time together. I have been told that I am a dog whisperer and a friend of the dog community by several people and owners. I enjoy what I do and the clients I serve, see that firsthand with their pups. I live with my parents currently. Your pups will enjoy running around our fully fenced backyard with tons of toys, bones, and treats for them to chew on. We can accommodate your pups with provided kennels and beds for their comfort.
