Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet’s Safe & Happy With Me!
Female sitter (she/her) Animals have always been at the heart of everything I do. With years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, including emergency care, specialty departments, and boarding/kennel facilities, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and needs. Animals are truly my passion, and I approach every pet with patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet needs a calm companion, extra medical awareness, or simply someone who will treat them like family, you can trust they’ll be safe, understood, and genuinely cared for with me.
Cat care experience
Austin also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by focusing on their individual routines, comfort, and safety—whether they’re in my home or their own. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, feeding schedule, medical needs, and any special instructions so their care feels familiar and stress-free.
Ratings and reviews
Austin was fantastic! She stepped in at the last minute when we unexpectedly needed a new sitter in the middle of our trip, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She took in Gwen and Roscoe on very short notice on a Friday night and immediately put us at ease. She was kind, responsive, flexible, and took great care of both dogs. After a stressful situation with our previous sitter, knowing they were safe, comfortable, and well cared for with Austin was a huge relief. We really appreciate Austin going above and beyond to help us when we needed it most. We will absolutely trust her with Gwen and Roscoe again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.
Austin was so great! She took care of our dog for a week, and I could tell that our pup got a lot of love during her stay! Austin was super understanding when our flight home was delayed, pushing back our drop-off timeline, and worked with us to find a new time. We’ll absolutely book with her again!
Austin was very communicative and took great care of our old boy! Glad to know he has a second home when we are away
Austin was fantastic for our Springer Spaniel Ruby. I can not recommend her more highly.
Always accommodating what I need.
Austin was a lovely sitter and sent me many updates and pictures. In every single picture, my dog looked relaxed and happy. She also brushed my dog daily (she's an infinite shedder). I would definitely use her again and will be recommending her to my friends.
