Your loved one is my first priority

Pet care experience

I have been pet sitting for friends and family all my adult life. For the last 20 years, I have been a foster for Austin Pets Alive and the Austin Animal Center, along with taking dog training classes for border collies. I believe your puppies should have fun while away and also learn at least one new skill or behavior. All of my downstairs floors are concrete and I have a dog door large enough to accommodate up to 40 pounds. I am self-employed so unless I am on-site for a job, my time is flexible. weather permitting, I always try to get at least one walk a day in. It would be my pleasure to care for one of your most loved family members.

We highly recommend, Rocky. From our first meet and greet, to dropping-off and picking-up Bentley, she was communicative, personable and professional — but most of all, she loved Bentley like he was her own. She proactively sent us regular updates with photos and videos of Bentley’s adventures, taught him how to master a doggy door and kindly replaced his food box which got a little gnawed by another pooch. Rocky is a dog whisperer — Bentley came home calmer, happier and more mature. Top notch.

Rocky couldnt be a sweeter person or dog watcher. She truly treats your pet as if they were her own and likes to give them lots of love and fun times at her home. She let them have the run of her first floor and spacious yard. She was communicative and made me feel like my 2 dogs were safe with her while we were away. No worries = happy dog mama

Rocky is the best! Took care of my elderly dog and was very flexible with my schedule. I will book again!

Rocky has pet sitted for my dog Sunny twice now. Each time, Sunny has been super happy, excited, and much more well behaved. It’s always nerve wracking when you leave your fur baby in someone else’s hands, but Rocky has been super awesome! Would highly recommend!

Information Rocky B L. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know of any special needs your dog has and his or her favorite activities, treats or toys. I always try to provide at least one walk a day and unlimited ball throwing in the backyard. I also enjoy going down to the trail if your dog is well behaved on a leash with other people and dogs.
