Available for fun-filled weekends!

Pet care experience

Your pup will always be my #1 priority while he/she is in my care. I love being outdoors, walking, and hiking so your dog will certainly get plenty of exercise with me! My boyfriend and I own a rescue pup named Opie, who has completely lit up our lives. Opie gets along super well with other dogs and loves to run and play. Currently, we don’t have space to board another dog at our apartment (but hoping to change that soon!). Even before Opie, dogs were always a huge part of my life. I had a couple dogs growing up, and I’ve consistently dogsat for a variety of friends, coworkers, neighbors and relatives. My sister’s dog LOVED to visit her Aunt Sam every other weekend:) I have lots of experience with different types of dogs, their personalities, compatability with other dogs and overall demeanor. I can handle high-energy puppies, anti-social older dogs and just about everything in between. I’ve seen it all! I’m generally available on weekends: Friday evenings through Sunday evenings, but other arrangements could be made as well!

I have a very shy rescue dog who is about 5 years old. Sam is very aware of the dogs she takes care of. The first time she took care of Holly for me, Sam came in and sat on my couch and let Holly come to her. It gave Holly a sense of who Sam was and that she wasn't there to hurt her and it allowed Sam to understand the type of dog Holly is. That was about 4 years ago. Now, every time Holly sees Sam, she get very excited. Sam is a very responsible woman with a love for dogs that can only be described as amazing. She goes above and beyond for the dogs she looks after as if they were her own. She is the perfect dog sitter.

Information Sam C. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have any breed preferences:) If/how well your dog is housebroken. If he/she is crate trained. And how sociable he/she is with humans and other dogs.

A typical day

My apartment has a small yard for quick potty breaks, and is in a very walkable suburban area with lots of trees and few cars, perfect for long morning and afternoon walks. My car is dog-friendly as well, so if your pup is a bit more energetic, I’m always down for hikes along the Greenbelt or even areas outside of Austin as well! And of course, I’m always down for some fetch, cuddling or mid-day couch naps as well.
