“I cannot express how amazing Marissa has been!! My schedule has been insanely unpredictable and Marissa has been there for my pup throughout the whole thing. 1000000% recommend.”
“Parker was absolutely amazing, I will be using his services moving forward. He was communicative, empathetic towards my dogs anxiety, and went above and beyond to also give them food and water. My one dog has crate anxiety and Parker was patient with helping him in and out of the crate - really helpful :)”
About: Hi, I’m Hanna! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid, starting with feeding my neighbor’s 17 koi fish every morning at age 8. I’ve had dogs my whole life, including a Jindo and a Corgi that I raised from six months old. Today, I live with two cats and a puppy (all adopted from Austin shelters), so I’m very familiar with different animal personalities and needs. I recently volunteered with the Austin Animal Center, where I helped care for cats and matched them with adopters. I’m comfortable handling pets that are shy, energetic, or just need a little extra love and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’m known for being reliable, calm, and detail-oriented. I’ll make sure your home stays secure and that your pets are happy and relaxed while you’re away. I will always treat your pets like my own, with lots of love and safety precautions! I am between jobs so I have all the time in the world to care for your babies. I am flexible based on your schedule. My cats are escape artists so I have become accustomed to making sure the house is always secure. I am always on the lookout for items that my cats may get that could cause them injury. I’m strict about safety in my own home when it comes to my pets, and you can expect the same for your place.
“Becky helped us this week and we very much appreciated her willingness to help out last minute. We received very thorough notes and great pics. Very pleased.”
“Heather was the first dog walker I've ever hired to walk my dog Molasses. In the beginning I was pretty nervous since I didn't know how Lass would do with someone else walking her and having a new person in my apartment while I was gone. Heather was great because she offered to do a meet and great before out 1st scheduled walk to make Lass and myself feel comfortable. I'm so grateful for this meet up! Lass loves Heather and their walks. Between the super cute photos I get and the love that my dog receives, I couldn't ask for a better walker!”
About: I have a deep love and special connection with animals of all kinds, that started with the dogs and cats of my childhood. I will make friends with your pets quickly, and always ensure their utmost happiness.I am keen on attention to details and perseverance in the face of challenges. I am currently picking up gig work while in between industries. I have reliable transportation and a very open schedule. I am available to work consistently in Bastrop, Travis, and Caldwell counties. I can do shorter term work in Bexar and Hays counties. I am happy to maintain the comfortable and perfect situation you already have set up for your pets. I am careful to follow all rules you have in place.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages for about 10 years. I have experience taking care of puppies, disabled dogs, and pets that have medications needs. Whether your pet is high energy or low energy, I’m happy to take care of your furry baby! :) I work part time as a lab assistant and my schedule fluctuates week to week. I will do my best to ensure my calendar matches my availability, but to be sure please message me before booking. :) I am unable to bring pets into my home at this time. I am happy to discuss house rules and expectations when caring for your pet. I’m here to help and make sure your pet feels safe!
“Juliette was so great with my puppy Otis for their first time together! He is a ball of energy and he was actually tied when he came back. She kept me updated and would send photos throughout the walk. I definitely will be using her again!”
About: The best pet care for the best pets — YOURS. I provide everything from walks to drop ins to transportation. I’ve got a wealth of experience from kittens and puppies to seniors, including medically fragile or special needs pets. I am proud to carry supplemental pet sitting/boarding/walking insurance via Pet Sitter’s Associates. This above and beyond any coverage provided via Rover. Rover also offers a discount code for 1st time bookings that I encourage you to use, whether you book with me or with another provider. Looking over my profile, you will see that I am a Star Sitter with reviews that speak for themselves. I offer a comprehensive, “white glove,” pet care experience that provides an alternative to kenneled boarding. As such, my rates are a direct reflection of multiple factors, including my reputation, experience, supplemental insurance, professionalism, and the premium service I provide. There are a multitude of wonderful providers for most budgets on Rover; if you find my rates are more than what you have budgeted for, I encourage you to research any number of caring providers that are closer to what you have planned to invest in pet care. I work from home. In addition to a fenced backyard, my subdivision offers 2 dog parks. Prefer your house or park? I can do that as well! I keep things tidy! From picking up droppings to scooping boxes, it’s doo-doo-able (see what I did there?). I leave your house as you want it — just let me know. My home is secure with a high fence for the yard.
About: I was raised around dogs and have cared for them for my whole life. Since adopting my Australian Cattle Dog ten years ago, I've done it all with pet care; training, daily exercise, dietary and health concerns. Now I'm ready to show your best friend the same care, attention, and love that I show to my own! I'm currently a graduate student at St. Edward's University studying mental health counseling, so I am looking to care for pets around my academic schedule. I currently only have class on Tuesday and Wednesday and so am very flexible on any other day of the week. I bring warmth, calm, and attention to every animal that I meet, and treat everyone's home and space with the utmost respect. I will follow all instructions to the word and bring my attention to detail to your pets' unique needs.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last 25 years of my life. I just love how every pet has its own personality and how you connect on different levels with them. I treat every animal like my own, with patience, play and lots of belly rubs! I’m a homemaker so I have plenty of time especially in the mornings when my daughter is at school; and since I just have one kid and one dog I’m very available I have a fence yard in my house and a dog park in my neighborhood as well as a dog park just across the street
“Jackson exceeded his time spent with our pups which I am grateful for, he also helped with a household need, above and beyond his ask. Very positive experience with Jackson.”
About: Pets have always been a part of my life - birds, fish, dogs, cats, mice, gerbils. I enjoy their unique personalities - even the fish! I've experienced the puppy or kitten as they mature, rescued discarded animals from the side of the road and nursed them through Parvo and starvation. My current rescue is an adult cat whose parents died of Covid. This was very stressful for her and after a couple of months of her absolute fear, I now have a very cuddly baby...even without her stress medications. I've volunteered with a pet rescue service where I walked several dogs at a time and played with the cats every evening. Your baby will be well cared for according to their needs and your instructions. I am able to make my schedule work around your needs (for the most part) with extended time available weekday evenings, Fridays, weekends and holidays. Caring for your pet is no different than caring for my pet or my child. Their needs are always met. Feedings, walks, playing, mess clean-ups (yep, I know that's a part of it), medications, all that's part of pet care. When staying with your pet at your home or during drop-in visits, I am able assure their needs and attention are well taken care of as well as the care of your space. Cleaning up accidents, litter boxes, rolling hair off of furniture is all part of what I do for you and your baby. I'll water your plants too! I'm a big believer of leaving the (you choose the word) better than I found it. Yep, I return carts left in the parking lot to the store...even in the rain.

“Solid service. This is one of those cases where doing sometimes ordinary in an extraordinary way wins the prize. All info was clear up front, Was cordial to me and friendly with my dog, asked the right questions before I left, she stayed in constant communication and sent several pictures, she figured things out when issues arose (and notified me immediately). Upon pick up, my dog was so happy he didn’t want to leave (lol!). This was my biggest metric for a successful stay. I was very satisfied. She has the full playbook down. 5 stars. Would work with her again.”
