Pet care experience

Spa weekend for your pet

Volunteer at Austin Animal Services! I grew up around all sorts of animals (chickens, turtles, dogs, cats), and nothing brings me more joy than pampering them! I LOVE having relaxing spa days, cuddling, and giving gentle massages to cats and dogs. Every pet that I’ve had has been a rescue or adopted (and I work with strays at Austin Animal Services), so I’m not phased if your pet is anxious or l working on their potty training and resource guarding behavior. Just pass that information along so I can properly accommodate them.

Donna was an excellent pet sitter and took good care of my dog while I was gone. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

My apartment has a gated play pen for fetch time, and is right next to a neighborhood I walk through daily. Very dog friendly community. Your pup is welcome to be on my couch and bed (if you allow them to in your home as well). Attentive to any dietary needs.

A typical day

We will explore the neighborhoods nearby, have interactive toy time, and cuddle on the couch (if they’re allowed) when they are all tired out while watching TV shows!

Every pet that I’ve had has been a rescue or adopted, so I’m not phased if your pet is anxious or still working on their potty training & resource guarding behavior. Just pass that information along so I can properly accommodate them.
