About: Caring for animals has been part of my life since I was a kid, from checking in on a neighbor’s pet to hosting overnight stays. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments—senior pets are especially dear to me—understanding the extra care and attention they often need. From gentle routines to specialized care, I’m experienced in making sure older pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. No matter your pet’s age or needs, I provide a calm, caring environment where they’ll feel right at home. I currently have a flexible hybrid schedule, which means plenty of time to care for your pups! Whether they need overnight boarding or just some extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I’m available for overnight stays starting at 4 PM—happy to provide a cozy, caring environment while you’re away! Your pup’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! My apartment complex features a spacious, well-maintained dog park with a wonderful community of dogs and pet parents—perfect for social pups who love to play. But if your furry friend prefers a quieter experience, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’m comfortable providing specialized care, whether that means crating, reinforcing training routines, managing special diets, or administering medications. Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I have extensive experience caring for them. Plus, living on the first floor means easy access with no stairs—gentler on aging joints.

About: I believe in treating pets with agency and kindness, respecting their boundaries, and understanding their unique personalities. I like to adhere to strict rules from the pet owner to ensure proper care. I like to over communicate - I’m flexible and adapt easily to you and your pet. I work from home Monday through Friday. 9-5pm. My schedule is flexible. I am available for weekend requests and overnight stays. I can also do early mornings and late nights if we can coordinate in advance. I make sure the pet has everything they need to be comfortable (water, food if free feeding, washed animal bed that I keep in my home). I ensure my apartment is clean so the pet can roam freely. When working from home, I take frequent breaks to give the pet attention and affection (if they allow).

“Chelsea was amazing with Peter. Fast response and open communication. Being new to Austin area she was able to do a meet and greet around my schedule. Loved the pictures of Peter. Made sure he was squared away with what he needed. Thank you.”


About: As a dedicated pet parent with a heart full of love for all animals, my pet care experience has been an incredible journey of joy, responsibility, and endless cuddles. From the moment I welcomed my furry friend into my life, I knew they deserved nothing but the best care possible. My days have been filled with adventurous walks, playful games, and tender moments that have forged an unbreakable bond between us. Understanding their unique needs and preferences has become second nature to me, allowing me to provide tailored care that ensures their happiness and well-being. Whether it's feeding time, grooming sessions, or cozy nap times, I take immense pride in creating a safe and nurturing environment where my pet can thrive. My pet care experience has not only enriched their lives but also filled my own with unconditional love and companionship that I cherish every day. Since the age of 16, I would lend a helping hand in caring for my brothers' dogs which nurtured my passion for being a responsible and devoted pet caretaker. From those early years, my commitment to providing the best care for these furry friends has only grown stronger. The countless walks, fun playtimes, and heartwarming moments have become treasured memories that fuel my desire to create a fulfilling and nurturing environment for every animal I encounter. The journey has been both rewarding and fulfilling, as the love and loyalty of these four-legged friends have enriched my life in immeasurable ways. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. During the week, I work from 9 to 5. I’m available for boarding Thursday-Sunday. During the week, I’ll be available after 5pm. At my home, creating a safe and trust-worthy environment for the animals under my care is my utmost priority. I have meticulously designed a nurturing space where every furry friend feels welcomed and loved. From my own experience as a dedicated pet caretaker, I understand the importance of a stable routine and ample affection, and I ensure both are present in abundance. My work-from-home days allow me to offer constant companionship, and I cherish the opportunity to engage in interactive play, stimulating mental exercises, and calming snuggle sessions throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I can cater to each animal's unique needs and preferences, providing personalized attention and care that fosters a sense of security and comfort. My home is equipped with pet-friendly amenities, cozy resting spots, and secure boundaries to give them the freedom to explore and play safely. Above all, I build lasting bonds based on trust and mutual respect, creating an environment where animals thrive, knowing they are in the hands of someone who wholeheartedly adores and protects them.

About: I’ve had family dogs since I was 5. I now have a dog of my own. I’m used to high energy dogs but I love a cuddly dog. I enjoy dog sitting and getting to hangout with new dogs. I work part-time so I have plenty of time to fit your pups into my schedule! I am also available to watch pups on weekends I will treat your animals like they are my own. I love animals and would make sure they get the attention you want them to get.

“Deisy truly enjoys taking care of pets. A year ago she got a cat named Ozu. She always talked about how she loved animals, but seeing how she treats her cat is so cute. She loves him and makes sure he is well taken care of all the time. She even wants him to start mingling with other cats so he can have friends. I know Deisy will be good at taking care of pets just based of how she treats Ozu and how much she loves animals.”
