Working from home brings flexible hours so I am fortunate enough to be able to spend time being in the present world around the house. I spend the days lounging with our boys - or dialing into meetings on the deck while (weather permitting) the k9’s play in my backyard.

Safety, trust & environment

I am situated right off of 203 - smack dab between Monroe & Duvall - so dropping your pet off for day care/boarding is super easy! We have a large & fenced in backyard with a small stream (except in the summer!) for getting muddy, tall grass, short grass, and a small section with trees. Your pup will be allowed on our furniture unless you request otherwise (if not, around here - they’re allowed wherever they’re comfy) My pet is crate trained so if there is a need/request for crating yours - I am certainly willing & able to do so. Typically I don't crate my animals though and I usually let dogs sleeps in the bed with me (have you ever seen a Great Dane sleep on a bed sprawled out?).

Information Austin O. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if your pup has any special needs, dog/cat aggression, behavioral “quirks” & more! I do *highly* recommend a preemptive meet & greet before booking. My ultimate goal is for everyone & every paws safety, health & sanity to be protected - so it is an important step to assuring me & your family are the right fit for yours.

A typical day

Ample space outdoors to play, sniff, run! Baskets of toys. Comfy spots for couch potatoes. Otherwise do we need some additional exercise/stimulation…? We are happy to go on extra runs/walks!

Pet care experience

I work from home so if your dog struggles with loneliness or even homesickness, amongst all the other fun challenges that may arise - they will have a very loving human to lean or snuggle on if needed at any time. I am on Rover because I know how hard it is to leave your pets with a stranger. I approach each situation with the same empathy as if I were leaving my own pet with a stranger. I provide updates with photos.

Austin took great care with Max & Coco. They get excited every time we pull into the driveway to drop them off. They clearly have a good time romping in the backyard. Thank you Austin!

I'm very happy with Austin's service. This is my second time leaving Nacho with Austin. I find him as a genuine guy and I trust my baby would be safe and happy with him. He always responds quick and send regular updates. Thanks Austin for everything.

Austin was a fantastic person, he did take care of our dog for a week when we were traveling outside of country. He sent regular updates and I felt at ease during the whole time.
