Pick Me For Your Pet!

I've been taking care of pets my whole life (20+ years). Pet care is my life! In my past I worked part time for a company called This Lil Dog of Mine, which is a professional dog walking service based here in Austin, Texas. During my time as a Pet Care Specialist, I was responsible for walking, feeding, giving water, distributing medication, and cuddling with pets until they got tired of me. In the last 2 years, I’ve switched careers and become a flight attendant, leading me to put pet care on pause for a bit. After realizing how much I’ve missed looking after furry friends, I’m ready to get back to it & my career provides me the flexibility to do the things I love!

Safety, trust & environment

My own dog is very spoiled, so I hope to do the same with your loving pet. We will abide by any rules and routine that your pet already has in place though.

Kirby did an absolutely sensational job with our three dogs during me and my husband's wedding weekend! She showed up for two meet and greets before the weekend, and we knew our pups were going to be in great hands. Kirby was especially attentive to the needs of our Weimaraner, who has very bad separation anxiety. She sent thorough updates at the end of each day with lots of photos, and she took great care of our house. We will DEFINITELY continue to work with Kirby moving forward. 10/10 recommend to other dog owners looking for reliable in-house sitting.

Kirby was amazing! Great communication, lots of pictures and she even stayed an extra night when my flight was cancelled and couldn’t make it home on time.
