Austin can care for
Availability
Pet care is a core part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around consistent walks/visits, feeding times, and any special instructions so pets are never rushed or squeezed in. Throughout the week, I keep communication steady with updates and photos, and I stay organized with notes to keep each pet’s routine consistent from day to day.

Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets the same way in any space: safely, calmly, and according to their routine. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely for meals, walk/play schedule, and house rules. I keep everything clean and secure, and I send clear updates and photos each visit. In my home (for boarding), I provide a calm environment, regular potty breaks and exercise, close supervision, and a consistent routine with the right balance of attention and downtime based on your pet’s personality and energy level.
Information Austin M. would like to know about your pet
Please share any specific behaviors, triggers, or dietary needs I should account for ahead of time. I like to know their typical energy level, core commands, and how they react during leash encounters. Whether your pup needs structured exercise to tire them out or gentle, low-stress care, I’ll make sure their routine stays consistent and comfortable!
A typical day
Every dog is different, so I tailor the day to their energy level. We might head out to explore new park trails, play interactive games, or just enjoy a solid neighborhood stroll. After burning off some steam, the rest of the time is all about dedicated rest, treats, and keeping their normal routine on track.

Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m an experienced dog handler dedicated to giving local pups the absolute best care. Backed by professional experience co-owning a pet service business and years of hands-on dog handling, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. My main priority is making sure your pup stays safe, comfortable, and right on their normal schedule. Whether we’re out on an energetic walk, dropping in for mealtime, or relaxing during an overnight stay, you can count on clear communication, prompt updates, and plenty of photo check-ins. Looking forward to connecting with you and your pup!

Reviews
You were one of Zag’s favorite walkers! He always got extra excited on hikes with you and came home extremely well rested. It’s clear he loved your gentle demeanor!
Javi has been taking my dog, Maple, out at least twice a week for almost a year. Initially, Maple was very apprehensive around men; however, Javi quickly built her trust. She is always excited to see him, and he maintains great control despite her energy level. He is extremely caring, communicative, flexible, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog walker.
