The Fun Uncle Your Pet Deserves

Like with children, I love all pets but travel too often to have my own; sorry mom. Fortunately, this makes me the perfect "fun uncle" for your pet. I'm usually the guy at the party on the floor with the dog playing tug-of-war with the rope in his teeth; your pups are going home tired. But also, down to just chill and relax on the couch with your big ol' sleepy boy. Full Disclaimer: Your dog may or may not be used as a wingman. (Please read full profile before booking... Just to make sure it's a perfect fit!)

Tyler is as good as it gets when it comes to caring for dog while we're away. He has cared for our dog countless times now, and I trust him implicitly. If you're anxious about leaving your dog with someone while you're away, Tyler is your solution.

Tyler did a great job with Gus and Penny from the meet and greet through their stay. I felt very comfortable with him caring for our dogs. I appreciated the photo updates. I will definitely contact him first for our next travels.

Tyler took amazing care of dog! He was friendly, professional, and proactive with his communication, including giving me regular updates to assure me my dog was comfortable and happy. He was also willing to go out of his way to let my dog stay an extra night when my work trip got extended last minute. The next time I need a dog sitter, I’ll definitely book with Tyler again!

Safety, trust & environment

Pups over profits here. I'm not running some sketchy online kennel business, so I don't book more than a MAXIMUM of two dogs at once. However, to best serve my existing regulars, I ask that all new clients' dogs be socialized and dog-friendly. I live in a gated community but I still keep pets leashed at all times while outside the apartment.

A typical day

I work for myself, from home, so your pet is going to get a lot of attention! I have full availability whenever I'm in town. I love long stays because they give me plenty of time to bond with and get to know your pets! I'm always looking for excuses to get out and explore. I live near a few parks, as well as Austin's riverwalk; these are the places I'll usually be taking your dog for walks or runs.

While I genuinely love all animals, I've gotta protect my mental health! If your pet falls into any of the following categories, it may not be the best fit: ● High-energy or untrained dogs (my small condo just doesn't cut it for these guys!) ● Dogs that can't be left alone for 1-2 hours (for gym and grocery runs) ● Puppies / Dogs under 2 years old (I ADORE them, but my rug does not)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
