Your dog’s OTHER best friend :)

Pet care experience

Hiya! I’m Solana. To say I am a lover of animals is an understatement! I would be more than honored to get to have some fun with your pet, while you are hopefully having fun yourself! I have had pets all my life all the way from dogs and cats to rabbits and headchogs (yes you read that right). I have had small dogs of my own as well as big dogs. Currently I have the sweetest Golden retriever named Kora who gets along with everyone and loves making new friends (aka your pup!). Kora is only two so I am accustomed to keeping her very active with swimming and long walks and exploring all the areas of Austin with other pups! Just like they say happy wife, happy life....well the same is true with our dogs I firmly believe. Plus to live in a city where you have all these great dog friendly areas at our fingertips, it’s silly not to make the most of them. So if your dog wants to join our clan for a weekend/pup vacation they would most certainly have the time of their life! I would say the biggest perk that your pup would get to enjoy is the fact that I am self employed, so that means they get to come to my office with me! So there is no staying at home alone all day to be let out only in the morning/ during lunch and then at night. It’s unlimited! When they need a break to go outside, chances are I do too, and I’m accustom to that already. Many of my friends with dogs love to have me watch their fur baby for this reason because even their work schedule is not flexible enough to be able to be around their dog every day. Plus, your dog gets to expend energy during that time with my baby Kora so often times they don’t wanna go home at the end of it. Having my own dog brings a whole skill set and just being a dog person in general I think sets me apart other dog sitters. I will ensure your pup has the time of their life and is safe with me. That way you can enjoy your vacation or work trip, whatever it may be, without a worry in the world.

Choose Solana because your pet will! Solana gave my Bauer TLC while I was on vacation. I recommend Solana because she is not only trust worthy but will give your pet so much attention that he/she wont want to go back home with you. I never worried a minute while I was out of town because she had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my little guy would be in good hands like Allstate. Solana sent me photos and videos of Bauer throughout the day, which I loved and appreciated. I know..seems too far fetched but its true.

I would highly recommend Solana for all your dog watching needs. She gives all the dogs she watches her full attention and makes sure they get out and play. My 1 year old lab loves playdates with her dog, Kora!

Information Solana D. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog play well with other dogs? If not, please elaborate. How old is your dog? Is your dog ever known to be aggressive? Is your dog freiendly all the time, some of the time, or not often times? Is this more towards other dogs or people? Has your dog ever been attacked or bullied by other dogs? Does your dog have food allergies?

A typical day

For in the mornings and evenings as well as weekends: we will walk around the area of where I live. There is an enclosed dog park on my property to play with other dogs if your dog enjoys playing with others. There is also a public park I walk to that is in my neighborhood that is about a half mile away. For during the weekdays during the day - the walks will be in the downtown area near Seaholm/power plant area and town lake. Dog parks like zilker, adortorium shores, Turkey Creek, or the green belt are not off limits for the week days and or weekends! (Unless stated otherwise by you!). If your dog likes swimming too I can be accommodating to that as my pup loves swimming.
