Working from home- Let me dog-sit!

Pet care experience

EXPERT DOGSITTER HERE. I am a nurse and a mom living in a tiny house and working from home M-F. I would love to keep the company of your pet while you travel. I love animals, I am organized, I am a whiz at keeping track of and administering pet medications, and I love walks! My 6-year old son lives with me half the time and would LOVE to keep your pups lavished with attention, snuggles, and playtime, too. My family has always kept dogs. Over the pandemic years, we fostered many puppies through Austin Pets Alive and I realized that we are great at it. Working from home every day can honestly get boring so please know that I will delight in the opportunity to have your pets’ company in my home.

Lindsay’s husband Adrian and their son came and housesat our Frenchies for a couple days. They went above and beyond the call of duty by staying and keeping our already spoiled pups company while I was working long hours over the holiday weekend. They sent a lot of pictures and are very communicative. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to have a reliable family watching their pets!

Lindsay and her family took great care of all my pets and plants while I was away. The house was in great shape when I returned and my pups were totally relaxed. Will totally ask Lindsay to help me out again. FANTASTIC house-sitter!

Lindsay and her husband Adrian were amazing! I was nervous leaving my dog alone for the first time since we moved from out of state and they totally put my mind at ease. I got daily updates and photos of a happy, well cared for pup. Will absolutely be using them again!

Lindsay & her husband took outstanding care of my two pups. My younger shepherd can be a handful sometimes with his puppy energy but they handled it like a pro. I could tell from the pictures she provided every day & my dogs’ enthusiasm at drop-off’s that she’s created an amazing environment for dogs of all kinds at her home. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a loving place to send their dogs while they’re away :)

Safety, trust & environment

The tiny house that I live in is about 400 square feet so I am able to consistently observe your dog(s) while we are there together. I have comfy chairs available and a cozy rug. Feel free to bring a crate or a pet bed for your dog(s) if that would help put them at ease about the new space. We will take leashed walks through the neighborhood. There is a fenced-in community area that I can bring your dog(s) for some fun games of fetch or whatever they enjoy. I wouldn’t bring dogs that I am dogsitting to a dog park unless you specifically express interest in me doing so.

I’m consistently at home during the work week because I currently work remotely from my computer so I’m fully available to keep an eye on your pup. I take breaks at least every 2 hours to move and walk. I will take your pet(s) with me. On weekends and evenings, I am not gone longer than 3 hours. Typically, I am just going to run to the gym or the grocery store and am back quickly.
