Dripping Springs Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Michael, I'll care for your pet as if they were my own. I've owned and loved pets all my life. I understand how important it is to keep your pet's training in order and I make sure their routine matches what is done at home. Not a professional until now but looking forward to sharing the love with new dogs in the Austin area. Whether it's fetch, walks, or cuddles I will be there for your pet! I can't wait to meet your fur babies and give them the loving care they deserve in your absence! Short notice is OK! I am selective on which dog/breeds I will allow overnight/in my home. The smaller the better! Salivating dogs, constant barkers and non-potty trained dogs not accepted. Please bring your dog clean and well groomed, otherwise I can not accept them, or I will have to charge extra $50 for bathing unless arranged for prior. All Sunday pickups must be before 9pm or book another night and pickup Monday after 10am. Please have your pets profile completely filled out before you request a booking. I will ignore requests that do not have their pets details filled in.

I was delighted to hear that my Sherlock did not sleep alone. He loves sleeping next to his humans. He has claimed Michael as one of the pack's newest members.
