House Sitting in North Lamar, Austin

“Linda was such a great sitter! She was communicative and very nice with our Sadie. She will definitely be our go to sitter from now on. Loved how she even gave some training to Sadie very patient and understanding. Gave us daily updates and pictures on how Sadie was doing.”

“OMG! Look no farther. If you want a GREAT Rover experience then Erica is your girl. She gave updates, sent pics, helped in any way possible, communicated often and was very respectful of my home. My dogs literally looked like they took to her quickly- which they never do so this was a testament to her “vibe”. I will hire Erica any and every time I need a dog sitter and recommend you do the same! 10 ⭐️’s”

My cat is usually pretty shy but she cozied right up! Daria also provided updates on how much my cat was eating and if she seemed engaged. Really appreciate that.

“Katie was so great with our cat! She sent frequent updates and really cute pictures to let us know how our girl was doing. Our trip was so much better because we didn’t have to worry about things at home, and we knew our cat was in good hands! Katie also went above and beyond when it came to leaving our apartment cleaner than it was before we left! I was so impressed how nice it was when we got back! Thank you again!”

“Yecenia was awesome with our dog! Super caring, always on time, and super easy to work with. Made the whole experience stress-free for us. Would definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Dwayne took good care of my 50 pound pittie. He was not phased by his various quirks and kept in touch with me while I was away. When he wasn't sure about the meaning of a minor behavior change, he checked in with me to make sure it was nothing to be concerned about. When I returned, my home was at least as clean and tidy as it was when I left. I will happily hire Dwayne again.”

“This was the first time we've used Rover and couldn't be happier! Riena was sweet and professional, and we felt like we could trust her with our "babies". She sent pics, was very communicative, and left the place spotless. We've booked her again!”

About: With a strong sense for dog body language and behavior, I naturally bond with dogs and know how to keep them engaged, playful, and calm. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior companion, I tailor their care to suit their needs and give them a fulfilling, well-balanced day. My schedule allows me to maintain consistent routines for feeding, training, sleep, and potty breaks. I offer a variety of experiences from city parks to nature hikes, giving dogs exposure to a diverse range of settings. I also provide basic training support including crate, leash/off-leash, recall, sport-based games like fetch and frisbee, and even task-based and obedience exercises—skills I’ve developed through 10+ years of experience with dogs from puppyhood to senior stages. As a graduate student currently on summer break, my schedule is wide open—and I’ve intentionally structured my time to prioritize pet care. I’m available for care throughout the day, whether that means early-morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or overnight sitting. My flexibility allows me to tailor routines around your dog’s unique needs, whether they’re energetic and need lots of stimulation or prefer a slower, calmer pace. I spend much of my time outdoors, and I love incorporating dogs into that lifestyle—hiking scenic trails, visiting off-leash parks, or just taking long neighborhood walks. I believe dogs thrive when they experience new encounters, and I work those moments of enrichment into every week. I live in a spacious, first-floor apartment with direct access to a secure patio and a neighborhood dog park—just steps outside my door. This makes potty breaks, quick outdoor play/walks, and socialization seamless and stress-free. Every day, our neighborhood hosts friendly dog meetups with well-behaved pups, offering perfect opportunities for your dog to engage with others in a safe environment. Inside my home, dogs will find a clean, calm, and organized space with plenty of enrichment. I have a variety of toys, training tools, puzzles, and games to ensure your dog stays mentally and physically stimulated—the goal is for no boredom and anxiety. I also keep a full range of grooming and cleaning supplies on hand, so whether your dog needs a simple wipe-down or a post-adventure bath, I’ve got it covered. I am well-versed in training methods and behavior management, so if your pup has specific routines or commands, I likely already have the knowledge and equipment to maintain their structure. I’m happy to reinforce crate training, leash manners, or any custom instructions you provide to ensure consistency while you’re away. I also have a well-socialized golden retriever mix who’s incredibly calm, friendly, and trained to model great behavior for other dogs. If your dog enjoys companionship, mine makes an excellent playmate. If needed, I can crate or separate the dogs for one-on-one attention or downtime—your dog’s comfort and safety always come first.

“Jack was absolutely amazing and took care of my senior dog as if she were her own. She kept me updated and sent pictures/video. Could not recommend her more!”

About: We are Tsekuang and Wendy, and we are a couple that provide service together. In our free time, we like to climb indoors and outdoors. We are more than happy to take the pups out when they stay with us (only if allowed by owners). About Tsekuang (Sunny): I am an animal care professional with 15 years of pet care experience. I can provide special services including medication administration. I love playing with dogs and giving them walks when you board or book house sit with me, and I’ll make sure your pets are happy throughout the time with me. Please do note that I have a cat in the house if you would like to book a day care or boarding. About Wendy: I am a UX designer, and I work from home. I will be the main person that spends time with your pup or pups if you book a home sit service with us. I have a flexible schedule to accommodate your preferred start/ end time. Please feel free to reach out if you have any question :) ** For Wendy's old clients, she is currently moving her bookings over from her account before Rover removed her original account and added her contact here. Her contact will show up in this account very soon. Tsekuang works from an office 3.5 days a week, but Wendy has a flexible schedule and works from home. With advanced notice we can accommodate our schedule to fit your needs. We have a two-story house with a high-fenced yard. Pets are allowed in the public area, patio and yard. There is also a fenced dog park in my neighborhood.

“Andrew did an amazing job housesitting and taking care of my dog Squash while I was out of town for 12 days. He was very responsive and reassuring. He sent me detailed updates everyday and made me feel like Squash was in the best of hands. He truly went above and beyond and I am super grateful that I found him!”

“Nataly was helpful in accommodating a last minute request and was communicative. Ironically, for being last minute, we ended up getting sick and coming back early, creating more scrambling for her. Everything seems in order and dogs are acting normal and happy! Will be glad to hire Nataly again in the future.”

Amber A.

“I needed to find somebody last minute to take care of my dog for a good 5 days and Anastasiia was amazing. She right away was able to take care of my dog house sitting, spending time with her, taking care of her and much more. She checked-in with me each day giving me updates and sent pictures so I could see how everything was going.”

“Alexa is the BESSST. She goes above and beyond when taking care of my pups, gives multiple daily updates with pictures, and left my house completely spotless!”

Alex H.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Ashley care for my beloved pets Ricky and Lucy, and I couldn't be more impressed. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were well-cared for, happy, and safe. Ashley was incredibly attentive to their needs, providing regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. My home was left spotless, and it was clear my pets adored her. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. Five stars all the way!”

“Jeremy was excellent with our three dogs over the holiday weekend. Despite the bad weather, they got plenty of exercise, and the house and yard were very clean when we returned. We would definitely have Jeremy back to watch our dogs.”
