Hi, I’m Charlize! I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats, from volunteering at the Austin Animal Center to pet sitting for friends, family and returning clients. I have two pups of my own, a sweet 6-year-old Airedale mix and a playful 2-year-old Cocker Spaniel. They’re both friendly, affectionate and well-socialized, and they love having other pups around. I’m originally from Austin and now live in Kyle, so I know the area well and have plenty of dog-friendly walking spots nearby. I also work from home, which means I’m around throughout the day and able to give your pup lots of attention, potty breaks, playtime and company. I’m caring, communicative and attentive, and I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, cuddles or simply lounging around, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy and right at home while you’re away. 🐾💛

Ratings and reviews
Charlize was absolutely incredible! She was so flexible with our change in plans and sent daily updates of Luca. Seemed like he had an amazing time playing with Syre and on his stay overall. Definitely recommend her.
Charlize was amazing! She was able to help with last minute day off accommodations for this Christmas holiday. Her pup was so friendly with my two frenchies, one who doesn’t even always get along great with other pups. She was very communicative throughout their stay, I received daily updates and lots of pictures and videos. Highly recommend and will definitely use Charlize again next time I’m in need of a rover! Thanks Charlize!
Charlize took amazing care of our Betty. It was our first time leaving her, and we were nervous because she still has lots of puppy energy, but she did great. I could tell Charlize understands dog body language, and she was aware how to introduce her dogs in a safe way. She sent us pictures and videos daily, and communicated with us throughout the entire stay. Our dog came home tired but happy, and I can tell she misses her playmates. We will definitely use Charlize again, and we highly recommend her services.
Charlize was great with our needy little guy. Nelson quickly bonded with her and we are so thankful. Charlize sent us numerous photos and videos and kept us caught up on her and Nelson’s activity’s. We recommend!
Charlize was a great sitter and my dogs really enjoyed her being there. She was very attentive and was excellent at sending pictures of them and communicating. Will use again!
Charlize was amazing! She took great care of our dog and sent updates every day. I would definitely recommend and will be booking again in the future!

Schedule
I work fully remote, so I’m home throughout the day and have a lot of flexibility with walks, potty breaks, playtime and whatever your pet needs. I really just want them to feel comfortable, cared for and at home with me while you’re away.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I’m very attentive and careful with every pet in my care. I follow their usual routines closely, keep a watchful eye on them throughout the day and make sure they’re secure, comfortable and never left unattended for long periods.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me usually includes a morning and evening walk around the neighborhood, plus plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day. There’s a big grassy field about five minutes from our house that we love taking the dogs to for frisbee, tug-of-war or playing fetch. At home, there’s always time for cuddles, toys and indoor fetch down our long hallway. I’m happy to adjust the day based on your dog’s energy level, routine and personality so they feel comfortable and right at home with us.
