House Sitting Sayersville

“Katelyn kept us informed about Bella throughout our vacation. She sent lots of pictures too. We will definitely be using her for all of our long-term dog sitting needs.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was extremely thoughtful, caring, and helpful, and she took all of our instructions seriously. Most importantly, she somehow won over our very difficult and anxious cat, Gigi, which is no small feat! When a shelf unexpectedly broke while we were away, she handled everything very calmly and responsibly. Cannot be more thankful. We absolutely recommend her and would love to have her sit for our cats again! ❤️”

“The girls were great, they cleaned up after themselves, including washing and folding their towels. Our dogs are pretty codependent and so they had to cuddle with them most of the time. It appears they followed the directions for feeding and medication’s. We will definitely use them in the future again.”

About: work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them. I work remotely full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the pets in my care—whether they’re staying in my home or I’m house sitting in theirs. For dogs staying with me, I’m home throughout the day for plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent potty and play breaks in our fenced yard. They’re welcome to hang out with me while I work or find a comfortable spot to relax and nap. When I’m house sitting, I can work remotely from your home so your pets can enjoy the same companionship while staying in their familiar environment. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and downtime. Wherever I’m caring for your pet, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and make their time away from you feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my priority. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, and each pet’s individual needs, and I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and care routines. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard and plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, or take a break when they need one. I’m experienced with multi-dog households, different play styles, and recognizing when a dog needs some space. I also have gates to block access to stairs or separate areas of the home when needed, as well as multiple large crates for dogs who are crate-trained and feel most comfortable having their own space. When I’m house sitting, I’ll care for your pets and your home with the same attention I give my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s usual routine, respect any household rules or safety precautions, and make sure your home is secure while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for.

It's evident they received top-notch care and attention. Highly recommend Tamara for a worry-free pet sitting experience. We will be using her for further dog-sitting needs.”

About: Hi, I’m Nyeira! As a dedicated pet owner and animal lover, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide the same level of care, attention, and love that I would want for my own dogs. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and currently have three dogs of my own. Two were adopted from shelters, and one was a stray I rescued while in college. Caring for pets from different backgrounds has taught me patience, consistency, and how to help animals feel safe and comfortable in new situations. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their dogs and cats because they know I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, and I am comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I will make sure they receive personalized care and attention. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, although I generally prefer working with dogs under 80 pounds. Communication is extremely important to me. As a pet parent myself, I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away. You can expect consistent communication, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently have open availability and ask that bookings or cancellations be made at least 48 hours in advance whenever possible. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I have a very flexible schedule and am available both weekdays and weekends, with open availability throughout the day to accommodate your pet’s needs. I am able to provide care in the form of house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, depending on what works best for you and your pet. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I am fully committed to caring for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable. I am adaptable with timing and happy to follow your preferred schedule and routine to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care whenever you need it, with clear communication and dependable availability. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in every pet care situation. While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I provide care in the client’s home through house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks so pets can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any specific behavioral or comfort preferences. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and personality to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and am comfortable administering medications when needed. I also provide consistent updates, including messages and photos, so pet parents can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy presence for pets—minimizing stress by maintaining their normal routine and treating their space and care instructions with respect and attentiveness.

“Michelle is an amazing stay in dog sitting. If you want peace of mind while you're away know Michelle is the ideal dog sitter. I highly, highly recommend her. From the meet and great Daisy, my dog really liked being around her. Michelle showed up on time to the meet and the day of. Michelle made sure to asked all the right questions, took notes so nothing could be overlooked. When I returned the house looked impeccable (I think better then I left it) and my dog was happy, well taken care of and not stressed at all. I will definitely continue to use Michelle services.”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered both and been a cat owner. I have also helped friends and acquaintances with their pets while they are away. My experience includes walking dogs, scooping 💩, changing litter boxes, providing food and play to pets, and completing general house sitting tasks. I have also administered eye medications to kittens before and allergy meds to dogs. I have also lived on a couple of farms and helped take care of horses, goats, chickens, and even a rabbit. I would love to take care of your pet and offer you the peace of mind to know I will love on and care for them as if they were my own :) I’m self-employed, so I have plenty of time available to care for your pets. Specifically, I am a Certified Public Accountant who quit her consulting job to become a part-time farmer! I am currently operating my own micro-farm growing organic vegetables and flowers in South Austin which allows my schedule to be very flexible. I am available for boarding, house-sitting, pet walking and drop-in visits to feed and play with cats and dogs (and other animals on a case by case basis). I am happy to visit and care for a variety of pets by feeding and playing with them as well as helping with any household tasks including plant watering, checking the mail and throwing out trash/recycling. I am currently living in a tiny home on my own on a large plot of land with plenty of access to unfenced outdoor space if you are interested in boarding your pets. I am also very happy to come to your home for drop-in visits and/or to stay overnight if you and your pets would be more comfortable with that option. For dogs, I am happy to spend time indoors with them playing with toys and giving them good belly scratches as well as take them outdoors either into the backyard and/or on walks. I have experience both with big dogs including a German Shepherd, Great Pyrenees lab mix, Australian Shepherds, and shelter dogs as well as smaller dogs including a Teacup Pomeranian and an Iggie. I’m very active, so if your dog has a lot of energy and likes to go on runs, I am happy to run with them as well. For cats, I am happy to match their energy levels - if they are playful and energetic, I engage with them and encourage play. If they prefer to sleep or rest or are more shy, I am happy to just be around and pet them/brush them if they would like or just give them space. I am happy to care for other pets if requested and I am comfortable with the care instructions. I have previously cared for a tortoise, which mainly consisted of feeding him and giving him water.

“Kat always does a great job taking care of our dog, two cats and our home. We feel confident leaving her in charge and always come home to happy pets and a clean home. Thank you!”

“Daniela provided fantastic care for our dogs and house while we were away. She adapted to changing situations as needed and communicated with us every step of the way. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Brandi is great at communicating and understanding my anxious pups needs. George was so happy and relaxed when we came home from a week long trip. I'm so happy he has such a caring new bestie to stay with him when we're out of town.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already plan my days around feeding, walking, and checking on animals. I make time in the morning, afternoon, and evening for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and updates for owners. I stay organized so every pet gets attention and care throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, fresh water, regular meals, and lots of attention. I follow the owner’s rules for feeding schedules, crate time, or training. In a client’s home, I keep their pet in their normal routine. I walk them, give them food and water, play with them, and send updates so owners know their pet is safe and happy.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a former veterinary technician with six years of experience in equine medicine, I have cared for a wide variety of animals in both professional and personal settings. I have lifelong experience owning and handling hunting dogs, giant breeds, cats, horses, and other farm animals. My background includes administering medications, monitoring animals with special needs, caring for senior pets, and safely and confidently handling horses. I also have experience managing multi-pet households and navigating behavioral challenges, including in-home dog-to-dog aggression, with a focus on safety, prevention, and stress reduction for all animals involved. My schedule is very flexible, and I typically offer drop-in visits in the morning and evening, with each visit lasting about 45 minutes to an hour. If your pet needs additional time, extra potty breaks, medication visits, or a more customized care schedule, I'm happy to work with you to find a routine that fits their needs. A quick note on pricing: my standard overnight house-sitting rate starts at $80 per night for dogs and $50 per night for cats. That said, I understand that many families have multiple pets, and costs can add up quickly. Unless you have a very large number of animals or pets requiring intensive medical care or specialized attention, I typically cap my overnight rates at around $100–$150 per night. If you have multiple pets, horses, farm animals, or a unique care situation, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm happy to discuss your specific needs and create a customized rate that is fair for everyone.

About: I’m a huge animal lover and have two dogs of my own, so my house and life are always full of wagging tails and happy paws. I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family over the years and love making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I attended vet tech school and worked in a veterinary office, which gave me hands-on experience with animal care and health. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home. Caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life since I have pets of my own. Walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure animals feel comfortable are all built into my routine. Pet sitting fits easily into my schedule, and I genuinely enjoy making time for animals so they get the attention, care, and cuddles they deserve while their owners are away. Whether pets are in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I try to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel safe and relaxed. That means sticking to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure they get lots of love and attention. I pay attention to their personalities and comfort levels and always make sure they feel cared for and at ease while their owner is away.

“Lauren was amazing!!! She was communicative throughout our trip, giving us updates daily. Our pup had some anxiety while we were gone and Lauren was super understanding and patient with some excessive chewing. She even cleaned our house and left it better than she found it. Thank you so much, Lauren!”
