Pampered and attentive pet care

Pet care experience

My strongest memory of a dog was caring for my childhood best friend’s dog, Daisy. She shared as much enthusiasm for us as we did for her, and rewarded us with her attentive gaze and wide, enthusiastic grin. She instilled in me a love for animals that has continued to this day, as I am known in my circle to be the go-to pet sitter and dog walker. My friends and family know they can count on me to give their pets abundant affection, personalized care, and to remain highly reliable and communicative. I am also the proud mama of three (dog-friendly) adopted cats, one of whom is diabetic, and I have a ton of experience administering medication because of her condition. I’ve rounded out my personal experience with professional experience as well, most notably working for Tiny Tails To You, a petting zoo in Austin, that featured rabbits, ducklings, guinea pigs, chicks and bearded dragons. I’m an enthusiastic, communicative and reliable person who is extremely active, taking many walks every day. The details matter to me and I make sure to remember all the quirks and specifications noted for the animals in my care. I am very transparent about my schedule and what can be expected when I take on a new client. Once pet sitting has begun, I communicate daily with pictures and quick anecdotes. My clients appreciate my respectful nature and can count on me to respond promptly to inquiries, questions and concerns. More than anything, they appreciate my passion in caring for their pet and know that I care deeply about providing the best experience possible! I have commitments until about 5:00 PM on weekdays and am free on the weekend for all your pet-sitting, dog-walking, house-sitting needs. Send me a message, I can’t wait to meet you!

Claire and Garren were wonderful hosts to our fur-baby. We constantly received updates and photos about her stay and they made sure to keep us notified if they had any questions or concerts. We were fortunate she was in such good hands while we were away.

Was great! Claire provided updates and I could tell my dog had a good time! Was running late but Claire was super cool and flexible with the pick-up time!

Claire and Garren will take amazing care of your pets! This husband-wife team are serious pet lovers who have always helped all their friends and family out with pet sitting and dog walking just because they love animals and are super nice and helpful people.They have always been eager to take our dogs on long walks, have cared for our cats many times and always make sure our very shy kitty feels comfortable enough to come and make contact with them. If there were any issues that occurred at hour house while we were gone, we were told immediately. They are very considerate and will text fun photos of our pets to send to us while we're gone. I also know that they are able to give medication to cats as they've had to do this for their own diabetic cat. They are both wonderful humans who have a lot of love for and experience with pets. I feel 100% confident you and your pets will be so happy to have them in your lives!

A typical day

My home is fantastic for dogs because we have an enclosed yard and plenty of space for them to run around. My husband (also an animal lover) and I love going on walks in the neighborhood and love the fact that we live very close to Walnut Creek Metro Park and enjoy taking the dogs there. Aside from neighborhood walks we also enjoy Town Lake, the Boardwalk, Shoal Creek, Red Bug, Auditorium Shores and Emma Long Park.
