Loving Dog Mom You Can Count On!

I’ve had dogs as part of my family my entire life and currently have a 5-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, so daily walks, routines, and lots of love are second nature to me. Being a dog mom means I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Safety is always my top priority. Whether we’re out on a walk or I’m visiting your home, I’m attentive, aware of our surroundings, and committed to making sure your dog feels secure and comfortable at all times. I carefully follow instructions and keep routines consistent so your dog feels at ease. More than anything, I want your dog to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I know how much trust it takes to have someone care for your dog and enter your home. I’m attentive about securing doors, gates, and leashes, and I’m always aware of our surroundings on walks. I follow your dog’s routine closely so they feel comfortable and at ease, and I treat your home with the same care and respect as my own.

Jaclyn is the BEST dog sitter I've ever had! My dog gets excited just walking up to her front door! She keeps me updated on his daily activities and sends multiple photos during his stay. I would highly recommend Jaclyn to watch your dog.

Jaclyn is wonderful dog sitter, walker and "step-mom" to all of the pets she cares for. Our dogs, Parker and Coleman, just loved her! You can tell she truly cares for the pets she watches by the way she treats her own dog, Woody. I would not hesitate to hire Jaclyn to watch my dogs for both short and longer periods of time.

If dogs could write reviews, they’d all be giving Jaclyn five paws 🐾 I’ve known Jaclyn for years, and I’ve always trusted her with my animals. She loves dogs like they’re her own children, complete with endless affection, careful attention, and probably more compliments than most humans get in a lifetime. She notices everything, cares deeply, and makes sure every pup feels safe, loved, and spoiled (in the best way). I never worry when my pets are with her and honestly, sometimes I think they’re a little disappointed when they have to come home. I truly couldn’t imagine a better person to trust with my animals. If you want someone who will treat your pet like family, Jaclyn is your person. Highly recommend!

Watching how Jaclyn takes care of her dog Woody makes it clear what kind of dog walker she would be. She is consistent, responsible, and genuinely invested in his health and happiness. She pays attention to behavior, understands the importance of structure, and makes sure he gets the right balance of exercise and mental stimulation. If she is walking your dog, you can feel confident they will be safe, cared for, and treated with real attention.

Schedule

I work from home as a freelance Art Director, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and afternoon walks and drop in visits, and spending part of my day walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m new to Austin and excited to explore different neighborhoods on walks with your pup while keeping them active and happy.

I appreciate knowing your dog’s usual routine ahead of time. Please share feeding schedules, walk preferences, favorite toys or treats, and anything specific you’d like me to cover during my visit so I can keep things consistent and comfortable for them.
