“Kody was fantastic. I hired him to walk a very energetic 1-year-old retriever twice a day after I broke my shoulder. He was always on time. He was pleasant and helpful, and dealt well with my dog's enthusiastic nature. I recommend him highly and I believe you will enjoy working with him as much as we did. Great guy.”

“Payton is very responsive, prompt, professional, and easy to communicate with. She sent me frequent text and photo updates, which helped me feel at ease while I was away. I had a very short-notice request, and Payton gladly took on the challenge. She had my dog Frimpy smiling real big - highly recommend :)”

About: I’ve had dogs and animals my entire life and I always will. Forgive me if I neglect the human bond cause I’ll probably be too busy trying to get your pets attention! I thrive in running this business cause I make myself ready and available to get to know the ins and outs of each pet and their owners. It’s important for me to understand all personalities and habits so their stay with me is the most comfy experience since they will be missing their persons (you) for a little bit. I’ll do my absolute best job to ensure a trust from not only them but you, that will make your future stays unquestionable! I’m self employed and work from home. I have my own schedule so making time for others is second nature and a good habit I’ve developed. If I’m being honest. Wanting to be around animals all the time is my full time job! Extremely flexible and I manage a great routine to fit the day to the pet and not just fit the pet in. My home is open for pets to wonder free and at will, I have a huge fenced yard and I’m happy to crate if needed! My home is pet proof and I adjust to any needs and routine to help keep each pet on their own schedule for minimal disruption while pet parents are away!

About: I've never met a dog or cat I can't win over. I meet them at their pace, never pushing unwanted interaction onto them. I have volunteered and fostered for multiple shelters. I have experience administering medicine, grooming, and bathing. Currently working part-time, so I'm relatively free to look after pets. I am also a morning person, and I don't mind getting up early to check in on and walk someone's baby, especially with how hot it is right now. I will follow your guidance on your dog or cat's care in your household to a T. I want to alleviate the stress an animal may feel meeting a new person by sticking to their usual routine.

“Sofia has been the best addition to my pup’s life! My husband I both just got new jobs and need to be in office more than we have before and just knowing I have someone I trust to come into my home and play, walk and love on my dog while I’m away gives such peace of mind. Her report cards are great at the end of the each walk/playtime!”

“Emma was so great with Kato! She was super friendly, responsible, and communicative. She helped my pup feel so loved. I’d definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 15 and have grown up surrounded by animals my entire life! I’m a huge animal lover and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, of any age including rambunctious puppies, whether we’re going on walks, playing, or just hanging out and keeping each other company. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I’m available Mondays and Tuesdays in the Windsor Park neighborhood and beyond for dog walking, drop in visits, and plenty of playtime! As someone who doesn’t work from and has pets of my own, I know how helpful it is to have a trusted person nearby to lend a hand. I’d love to be that person for my neighbors! Not offering pet sitting at our home at this time. I am committed to befriending your pet and making them feel safe in their home, on walks, or wherever I am needed!

About: I have a wealth of experience in pet care, primarily dogs, from my own pets to volunteer and foster experience with Austin Pets Alive. For younger pups, training and repetition is absolutely key to making those teenagers thrive! I have always trained my own dogs and have worked with APA's certified trainers to build my knowledge and understanding of dog behavior to work with shelter and rescue dogs find the comfort in routine. I also have experience in senior dog and high medical needs dogs from both personal and volunteer experience. Meds, IVs, blood glucose checks, you name it and I have probably done it with a pet. My goal for your higher need dog is always ensuring they feel safe and comfortable, especially if that means taking 30+ minutes because they showed that they needed more time. I have handled dogs of all sizes and all kinds of behaviors so nothing is too big or small, too shy or excitable for me. I'm currently a college student who's simply looking to work on my own schedule that a typical job can't provide currently! Being able to walk or hang out with your pet while listening to my required readings or otherwise studying sounds like a perfect fit for me! As a pet parent, I fully understand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone else with your pet. That's why transparency is my biggest priority, through text and photo check ins so you don't have my word for it but visual evidence of what we're doing. For daycare at my home, I have my own 7 month old puppy and plenty of nearby parks to walk around in that I would love to take both our pups on! For care at your home, whether you're in an apartment or have your own backyard, walks and sniffaris are an essential part of me caring for them! Its not just about the exercise but the mental enrichment as well!

“Yeti loves his walks with David. It’s very clear from the photos post walks. David easy to get ahold of and responds quick. My first go to for yeti walks! Thank you David!”

About: I grew up with animals and have been taking care of them for friends and family for as long as I can remember. Pets hold a very special place in my heart. From walking, feeding, bathing, training, and lots of cuddling. I aim to keep your pets filled with happiness while you are away. I have bottle fed kittens, potty trained puppy’s, and taught my late 80lb dog to walk off leash when all he wanted to do was chase squirrels. Taking care of pets comes natural and I want to give them as much love as they give to us. I work from home full time and am able to be at the ready for your pets at a moments notice. I go for long morning walks and cook at home. Easy going and flexible to help with all of your pet sitting needs. I take the utmost care of other peoples homes, items, and pets. Leaving homes better than I found them and pets as happy as they can be without their parents.

“Christopher was patient with my dog and took great care of him! I will definitely be booking him again for walks and to watch my dog when I go out of town!”

About: Being a bilingual pet sitter allows me to connect easily with both pets and their owners. I have a natural ability to bond with animals, making them feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. Each pet is unique, and I adapt to their needs—whether they crave playtime, affection, or quiet companionship. I carefully observe their behavior, ensuring they feel at ease. Beyond feeding and cleaning, I focus on trust and security. The best moments are when a once-shy pet finally warms up to me. Pet sitting isn’t just a job; it’s about creating meaningful connections with with your pets. 🐾💕 Being a musician gives me the flexibility to dedicate time to caring for pets. My schedule allows me to be available when pet owners need me most, whether it’s for daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute care. This flexibility means I can adapt to each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive the attention, companionship, and care they need. Whether it’s taking a dog on a midday walk, spending quality time with a shy cat, or simply being there for feeding and playtime, I love being able to offer reliable care. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my life, and I cherish every moment of it. As someone with a flexible schedule, I provide pet care both in my home and in clients’ homes. Since I currently don’t have a pet, I can welcome pets into my home, where they have space to feel comfortable and enjoy my yard. This setup allows me to give them dedicated attention in a calm environment. At the same time, I understand that some pets feel safest in their familiar surroundings. My flexibility allows me to meet them in their own home, keeping their routine intact and ensuring they feel at ease. Whether in my home or theirs, I prioritize their comfort, care, and happiness.

About: I'm a graduate student who primarily works from home, so I have lots of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day and week. I have no problem dropping in midday during the week if that’s what you need! I'm very sensitive to the individual attitude and preference of the cats and dogs that I care for - I've cared for friendly and outgoing animals, who wants lots of pets and playtime, but I've also cared for quieter, more introverted cats, who don't want intrusions into their safe spaces (especially when their humans aren't present). I respect the boundaries that pets set, and adapt accordingly! In addition, I’m detail oriented and will carefully follow the instructions you provide.

About: I am a recent grad staying in the Austin area! I have a rottie (150 pounds) back home and have cared for pets with diverse needs numerous times over the last four years. I live in an apartment, but in a walkable neighborhood with plenty of sniff spots. I am willing to take up to two pets for boarding, however, the pets must be from the same residence to ensure they can get along while being away from home! I work from 8 to 5 in an office about 20 minutes from home, so during the week I have time for scheduled feedings, walks, and play before and after my work day. I keep a very clean apartment. While it is on the smaller side, your pet friend has plenty of room to splay around. I will take plenty of pictures so you can keep up with your friend's time away! I can care for dogs of any size, but would prefer to only watch one larger dog or two smaller dogs (from the same household) at a time. I can only take dogs that are potty trained and able to be left alone for a few hours at a time (crated or not crated). You can provide a crate if your friend prefers their own space when they need it!

“Kaitlyn was amazing, we got really lucky finding someone like her to care for our boy!”

About: From a young age, I’ve always taken care of family & friends’ pets, helped socialize anxious and antisocial pets, and volunteered at humane societies. I get along well with many animals. I’ve had experience sitting, walking, and medical+senior care for both dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. Many have entrusted me with their care because I l care about ensuring their pets will feel safe and relaxed with plenty of attention! I’ve also had a small amount of experience with grooming and working with horses. My current work schedule has some flexibility, so I’m available earlier in the day than many, as well as most weekends and evenings, to provide care, companionship, and fun for your pets. I love to learn each pet’s personality, behavior, and needs to make sure I’m not only fulfilling my responsibilities, but also helping your pet to feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away!
