Calling all ATX Pets!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Staci! I live in South Austin. I am a part-time dog walker and dog sitter. I used to work at a doggy daycare and have had extensive training with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I've worked with dogs with anxiety, dogs with special needs, dogs with medical conditions, and dogs with behavioral issues. No dog is too much for me to handle; I love them all.

Staci was great! She gave my cats all the attention they wanted during her drop-ins, and they looked so happy in the pictures she sent. I’ll definitely be reaching out if I need a sitter again!

Staci was so great while I was away. Her check ins about Eleanor made me feel so much better about leaving her for so many days at her age. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again.

Staci was so great checking in and keeping my dog company while I was gone. She was great about updating me on how my pup was doing and sent me pictures every time she visited. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to do check ins.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a luxury apartment building on the South side of town- your pup is able to come to my apartment if they are friendly with other dogs, as I have a 5 year old Husky mix named Beans. He is very friendly but if you’d prefer your dog to stay at your house, I’m more than happy to do drop in’s!

Information Staci P. would like to know about your pet

I do prefer to set up a meet-and-greet at my house before the stay. This way, your dog can be introduced to me, my home and my dog, Beans, beforehand. My dog is never crated so if your dog needs to be crated at night or when alone, please make sure you bring it. As well as food, treats and any toys your dog wants to bring along. I would also suggest bringing your dog's blankets/bedding from home to make them even more comfortable. Please let me know of any allergies or medical conditions when inquiring. I have lots of experience with dog medications (pills, eye drops, ear drops, dental spray, etc) so don't fret if your dog has some! I recently learned how to inject insulin shots, as well. Lastly, I would like to know of any behavioral issues beforehand too (ex: leash aggression, toy possession, food possession, etc). **I do offer pick-up and drop-off, if you are unable to drop your dog off with me. I charge $5 for the pick-up and/or $5 for the drop-off.

A typical day

I love to spend time outside with the dogs I watch. We’ll find a fun trail or park to play at. If your dog would prefer something more chill then we can snuggle on the couch instead! Whatever they prefer.
