“Kelci did such a wonderful job! She was incredibly attentive and noticed when the litter needed to be taken out outside of its normal schedule! She sent me so many photos and was sure to play with my kitties a ton! I highly recommend and will be using her again!!”
“Jamie was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond what we expected and allowed me to really relax while on vacation. My cats adored her. Even my little scaredy cat (afraid of his own shadow) came out for her. I will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Haley sent a description of each visit and sent pictures. I am always nervous leaving my cats in the care of someone I don't know well, but her communication helped me to feel comfortable that they were being well-cared for.”
“Nikki has been my sitter fir kitties fir a few years now and I can always depend on her to get all the pets taken care of!

Thank you so much. Will definitely be using her services again!”

About: Providing a stress free environment from a stay at home nana. I would love to create a home away from home for your beloved fur baby. Life long love for animals. I work from home so can accommodate to your fur babies schedule. My home is quiet and easy to navigate for any pet that may have anxiety. My backyard is fenced in and can provide plenty of room for activity. I usually let my chihuahua out every hour or so, or give him the option to go out. He generally likes to stay under his blanket a majority of the day though. He does get along well with other dogs, as he has lived with larger dogs previously.
“5 stars! I have never left my cats with a sitter before and Ashley was great! By the second day I was so comfortable that I had totally forgotten she was dropping in on them lol. She sent pictures and updates every day! Thank you so much, Ashley! I'll totally contact her again if I need help!”
About: I've always had pets of all kinds. Currently 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a lizard. This is a fantastic way to get out of the house and to get exercise. It's the best way to pep up any day! I work M-F, but am available all hours on wkends, and before 6am/after 4pm through the week. I do not have children. Only pets so my schedule is extremely flexible with the exception of work hours. Always follow the rules given, do not touch and respect the clients home and what is inside of it. Clean up after the pet, and ensure I go above and beyond what is requested.
About: I’ve taken care of my Chihuahua since I was a little girl until she passed away at 16 in December of 2022. My family members have trusted and relied on me to dog-sit (which includes playing, feeding, and walking) their dog—a Rottweiler mixed with Australian Cattle Dog. I love interacting with different types of dogs, however unique they are! I just graduated college so I have enough time to watch, play, walk, and/or feed your dog or cat. Whether it's early or late, I can easily take your pet for a walk. I will respect whatever rules you give me while checking in on your fur baby at your house. I will not share any type of information given to me to respect your privacy. I am most familiar with North, Central, and East Austin so walking any pets near these areas is comfortable to me.

About: I have 12 years of experience working with animals throughout daycares, boarding resorts and shelters. I also attended the Veterinary Technician institute of Houston in Summer/ Fall of 2018. 🐶 I am a compassionate and hardworking individual to give your furry friends the best care. 🐾 I have had animals all of my life, since I was born I have grown up with dogs and cats with the occasionally small rodent, rabbits and ducks as well. Compassion towards animals comes to me very easily, I am not great at a lot of things in life but one thing that has never faltered is my ability to care for animals with the highest standard. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies🐶🐱 I am currently in college online so I am able to move around freely without any restrictions. I also have 2 dogs and 3 cats I take care of at home so I know what the work load is! With my experience I can give your fur baby the best care.
