Fully remote pet sitter in Austin!

Pet care experience

Hello, I live in Austin, Texas and work fully remote in information security (IT). I have a lot of experience with dogs, both big and small, and am happy to pet sit at your home. I can adhere to whatever schedule (frequency of visits, length of time at the house, night time routine, walks or jogs, etc.) that works best for you. I am definitely happy to go on jogs with a dog requiring more exercise, I am a pretty active runner :) I can also bring your dog to dog parks if you let me know! I would not do this unless the owner said the dog(s) do well in this environment. I do not charge per the amount of visits or walks when I house sit full time. I also do not charge extra if you want me to do a few chores, like bring in the mail or do some laundry. When I house sit, I only take one client so you can rest assured my full attention is with your pets! I can administer medication via pills or a topical application, but I do not have the expertise to administer medications via shot. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Colleen is was very good with walking our dogs and keeping them active while we were away; she even enlisted her sisters for extra exercise. Lots of pictures as well, which were great!

Colleen was awesome. She spoiled my dog, and he was so pleased with his new home he seriously hesitated getting into my car after the weekend with her. She is my first choice for a sitter next time!

Our 120 pound German Shepard, Gilly, loves Colleen. She is a wonderful dog walker and pet sitter. We actually think Gilly was sad to see us arrive home after a stay with Colleen. Colleen has stayed at our house and cared for Gilly. She takes him on wonderful walks and he is in the best of spirits when we return. Gilly is looking forward to his next visit from Colleen!

Information Colleen W. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. I do have a lot of experience with larger dogs. When I set my availability to house sit, I will be staying at your residence full-time (unless you prefer I do not sleepover). I work remotely, so your pet does not need to be left for any long period of time.

A typical day

I am happy to take your dog to the dog park, on light jogs, or a walk while pet sitting. I am flexible and do not charge extra for walks, administering medication, etc. while pet sitting at your residence.
