“Alaura was great! She checked on Stache every day and sent us a picture. We knew that he was being well cared for. Alaura even watered my indoor plants! That was appreciated. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. Thank you, Alaura!”



About: Ive taken care of dogs every size. teaching new tricks, going on walks, and ice cream is something I enjoy doing with a fur baby I currently work full time night shift. I work 12 hrs shifts so my other 4 days during the week are open to helping other animal lovers with their babies. Because without the help I receive on my work days I would b very stressed. I have an unfunded yard but I love going on walks. Me and my dog ( henny) are always going hiking, fishing, to the dog park, or just out for a car ride. Henny loves all dogs and has lots of energy to play.

“Jamie was able to come and meet my cat and learn his routine on short notice, was friendly, and my cat liked her. I was very comfortable with her and have scheduled her for drop in visits 4 days a week.”


About: I can do boarding for any friendly cat since I have 2 kittens but it would be hard for me to watch a dog in my apartment or board a dog so I would have to come to your house to watch your dog. For any visit that I will make to your house, I will make absolute sure that your dog is comfortable with me being there, then I will gain their trust so that every time I come back they will get more and more happy that their friend Nikki is coming to take care of them! If your dog needs a walk, don't worry! I have experience with a dog that weighs a good 100 pounds, so they can't run away from me! I'll even clean up after your pooch after they go to the bathroom, just to make sure your neighbors don't get angry with me! Also, any animal I meet I love, so that means any job I take, I will be more than happy to keep returning to your house, or walking your dog(s)!

About: I’ve worked in a shelter, so I have experience cleaning, caring & walking. I have two dogs and two cats and am experienced with many breeds I worked full time during the week but am available most evenings and weekends. I am home with my pets whenever I am not at work! I care according to needs. My pets are all very different, so I make sure to take time to play & feed accordingly. I clean as necessary!

About: Who can love your little ones as you do? I was licensed for child daycare in Colorado for over 10 years. We are animal lovers and guardians of three little dogs. Adults who love and understand the needs of little fur babies. We would love to get to know your special one too. Please make sure you add all of the info for the vet you use. All dogs will need to be current on vaccines and flea and tick care. Please keep in mind when you pay for one day it covers you for 24 hrs. So if you bring your baby at 6 a.m. you will be covered till 6 a.m. the following day. Any hours after that is $6.00 an hour. If you book for more than a weekend, I can be flexible (1 to 2 hrs) due to flight delays, etc. Thank you! I'm currently not working outside home so no matter what your little ones will have someone here at all times. I feed everyone seperately and we walk when weather permits. We have potty pads available for comfort in between outings. I allow access to my whole home and will enjoy a walk once a day or more weather permitting. We have a great time individually and daily with all our little ones.

“Muriel was the best! She took great care of our pooch! We are so thankful for her. She was always on schedule and she let us know how our pup was doing. It was a great experience for our first time using Rover.com.”


About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets since I was a young girl. I’ve helped take care of cats, dogs, hamsters, and turtles. I currently help my mom in walking, feeding, and bathing our dog and two cats. My sister often relies on me to walk and feed her pets as well. I’m currently a college student, so I’m able to work part-time for dog walking and dog sitting at a client’s home. I’m available during the week, especially on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m able to travel to a client’s home to take care of any pets he or she has. I’m a lover of all pets, but I’m especially trained in caring for small and medium dogs and cats. I take my dog for a walk about three times a week, so I’m also available as a dog walker.

“Oh my goodness... We LOVE Kayla SO MUCH! And our husky fell in love with her immediately as well. We feel extremely comfortable with her in our home... And feel totally confident our sweet girl is well taken care of. We found a good mine with her!!! ?”


About: I have had cats, dogs or both my whole life. I understand how important your pets are because I know how important mine are to me. I have experince caring for anxious animals and will be able to be patient and supportive for your babies if needed. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs and same for cats. My dog currently takes medicine multiple times a day so I have no problem giving out meds if needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your babies behind to go on vacation or work trips. I am confident that I can help easy your worries and your pets stress. I have open availability as I work from home so I can spend the majority of the day with your animal. I work for myself so I don’t have a normal 9-5 in an office. I have pretty much open availability since I can work anywhere. I am pretty easy going and flexible so Im always down to work with you to come up with a plan or schedule that works for you. My long term boyfriend and I typically will tag team any bookings we get to ensure that your animals are not ever alone for longer than absolutely necessary. We prefer to both be present for any meet and greet so we can all get acquainted. We live in South Austin ourselves but are willing to travel up to 14 miles for any booking. We are also typically open to long term stays. At my house our pets come first. I have 4 cats that run my household. I got my girl Kevin when she was less than 4 weeks old. She was abandoned by her mom or somebody. It was like having an actual infant in the beginning with the waking up at night to feed and help her potty. i am very capable of watching tiny kittens or even a litter. I adopted Binks so kev would have a friend and lose the only kitten syndrome she had. Binks is developmentally slow and partially blind she came from an abusive home before me so it’s taken almost 10 months for her to come out of her shell so I totally get it if your cat is a hider and just needs someone to come sit in the home for a bit. We recently also took in two kittens from the same litter. Their other siblings and mom died from a dog attacking them and then these two were left for dead. They were so tiny so I couldn’t just leave them when I heard about it. So now we have added Karl, & Toast to our family. Toast is our only little boy. I am comfortable with most dogs as well. I just would want to meet them with you present the first time. So for you with your animals I would treat them with the same amount of love I do with my own. My goal would be to make it as seamless of a transition as possible with yall being gone and me being there. I can stick to whatever they are use to whether it be crating them for bed or snuggling up together.

About: Important!!! If you are looking for me to sit at my house, I am only able to watch small hypoallergenic dogs as my husband is allergic. My parents have always had dogs, so I am very familiar with the responsibility of having a dog myself. Although I do not have my own dogs, that just means I’m able to give your dog as much attention as it deserves! I have watched my parents dog, friends dogs, etc. so I am familiar of what is expected. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for any quick check in, potty breaks, or watching a dog throughout the day! :) I first try to ensure the pet is as comfortable as possible. I understand meeting a new person can be stressful so not scaring them is top of mind. I have many toys, pee pads, food and water dishes, etc. i want to make them feel at home. If I go to a clients house, making sure that they know that I am a friend is crucial, and I also bring toys, leash, etc. to use in case if needed.

About: Hello, I know finding someone to take care your pet for you can be a hard decision sometimes and I completely understand. I’d be happy to make sure you feel comfortable leaving your dog with myself and my children before you leave for work or your trip or wherever! I work part time so I will be home on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays to be with your dog! We love to take walks and play outside.
