Pet care experience

Growing up on a farm, I have experience caring for animals of all kinds! My husband and I have a dachshund, George, and we’ll treat your pup like our own. Being Dachshund parents, we have high quality ramps for our furniture to provide an extra layer of safety and comfort, whether you own a dachshund or a senior pup. We reside in a 2-bedroom home on the east side, with access to a fenced garden and we're close to Lady Bird Lake. Happy to chat further about how we can make your baby feel right at home!

It's hard to communicate how perfect Fiona is. When we moved from Brooklyn, we had a set group of sitters that we felt comfortable with, this was our first Austin experience with Rover. Fiona is a dream come true. She's communicative, thoughtful, cares deeply for dogs, a great photographer, and extremely high integrity. She cared for Oliver, cleaned our home, had no hiccups or concerns. She even suggested a meeting and a walk before her care so she could get used to all parts of sitting. Not to mention, she's bright and so kind it's a pleasure to interact with her even beyond her care of Oliver. I'm already planning to book her again.

Fiona was a lovely sitter. She sent a lot of pictures and made sure my dog had a lot of quality play time. Your dog will be under great care with her.

Fiona was so sweet and accommodating for a last minute dog sitting need! She’s communicative and sent me photos of Maggie throughout the day. Maggie had a great day with her and I’ll definitely use her again!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pup will enjoy a comfortable environment and have the opportunity to explore playtime with my friendly dachshund in a pet-proof space, with access to toys. I prioritize their health by scheduling walks at times when the Austin heat is less intense, ensuring they maintain their regular routine. Your pet will receive constant love and attention, creating a home-away-from-home experience. We only offer Rover stays part-time, with no more than approx two bookings per month if even, which ensures your dog receives the personal attention and care they deserve.

Information Fiona G. would like to know about your pet

Feel free to share any unique needs or preferences your dog has so I can provide them with the best care possible. It's also helpful to know if your dog is comfortable and sociable with other dogs, as I only accept pets who enjoy the company of others to ensure a safe and happy environment for everyone.

A typical day

I adapt fun activities based on each dog’s energy level and personality. We have plenty of toys for playtime at home, and I enjoy taking dogs on the nearby trail if they’re up for it. For pups who prefer a slower pace, shorter walks around the neighborhood are always an option or playing ball in our garden. My top priority is making sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy.
