Fenced yard, small dogs under 15lbs

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Rui. My husband and I moved to Austin in 2020, during the Covid time. Current dog owner looking to care for other small dogs (15lb Max) at my home. I am not working and will be dog sitting full time, I have one teacup Yorkies, his name is Samurai he is 4lbs. I’ve been a dog owner for the last 20 plus years. I have also cared those belonging to family and friends on many occasions. I have a gated backyard that your dog will enjoy. We live by the lady bird lake, when it is not too hot, all the fur babies get to walk by the lake . My days start early, so drop off and pickup times are pretty flexible. Being that my dog is really small I will only be caring for other small dogs. I look forward to welcoming and caring for your sweet one too. I am currently not working, will spend plenty of time with your doggies. Preferred drop-off time is by 9am, pick up is by 7pm. But my schedule is flexible. I have a fenced yard and two friendly teacup Yorkies to keep your dog company, I can also crate your dog if needed. I only host small dogs in my house, max 15lbs.

Rui took such good care of Ralph! Kept a close eye on him, updated me regularly, and was very accommodating to a last minute schedule change. Highly recommend her for your small dog!
