Caution: best pet-sitter ahead

Pet care experience

Hello and welcome! My experience with animals begins 7 years ago including cats, dogs, lizards, you name it. I have always found it best to let pets get their energy out any way they can, whether that be long walks, runs, going to the park, or playing in the yard. Luckily, I have an unfenced yard and live near multiple parks!

We’ve had Austin watch our dogs twice now, and they absolutely love her. She’s incredibly responsible, and we’re grateful to have her whenever we need someone to care for our pets. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.

I highly recommend Austin for anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. She stayed at our home with our two dogs, and it was evident that they were genuinely happy in her care. Regular photo updates and messages provided peace of mind, and our dogs were visibly excited to see her when she returned the key. The house was well-maintained, and everything looked great upon our return. We’re grateful for her attentive and trustworthy service and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. 5/5 stars!

Austin was terrific. She was caring and attentive to our dog, Fluff. She was quickly responsive to my messages prior to and during her time dogsitting Fluff at her place. We will definitely call upon her again.

Austin was very easy to work with, she was very responsive and attentive to all my dog's needs. She made my anxious dog very comfortable during her 3 days stay and took her on lots of fun walks! I would highly recommend Austin for all your pet care needs!

Information Austin R. would like to know about your pet

Medical conditions, allergies, sensitivities, and reactivity to humans/ pets is very important to me! I want to be prepared to keep your pet safe and happy.

A typical day

I normally walk 6:30-7am or 7-7:30am and around the yard before i leave for work. If your dog needs care during the work day, we can discuss our options one on one! Once home from work, we will go on a 30-60 minute walk. If able, we will go to a dog park 2-3x during their stay! Your pup will get plenty of attention from me and my two roommates or can have the privacy of my bedroom if they are shy. One more walk at bedtime will end our day.
