Dog Walkers in Shady Hollow, TX

“Coby is great with my pups! They enjoy their walks with him.”

About: With 17 years of experience caring for senior dogs and pups who need a little extra support, I offer attentive, compassionate boarding for dogs who would benefit from being the only other pup in a calm, steady environment. I’m confident administering medications and have a long history supporting senior dogs and helping rehabilitate rescue pups. I live in a quiet first‑floor apartment chosen with senior joints in mind, with plenty of nearby green spaces for slow, comfortable walks. Your dog will share the space with my gentle 14‑year‑old chihuahua, Shelby, a former Austin Pets Alive! rescue and heartworm survivor who enjoys meeting respectful new friends. My background includes running my own dog‑walking and house‑sitting service, and I bring steady care and professionalism to every booking. My days move at a stress-free senior‑friendly pace. I’m home the majority of the day, so dogs aren’t left alone for long stretches, and I structure my errands and outings around my guests’ needs. I live in a centrally located, easily accessible gated apartment complex. Your pup would join Shelby and me on relaxed morning and evening walks along the trees and green spaces nearby. Indoors, we have comfy, Shelby‑approved beds in every room, along with hard floors and washable rugs for the occasional senior moment. I keep a toxin‑free home, using simple, pet‑safe products throughout the space. Dogs can also enjoy fresh air on the fully enclosed porch, which is a safe, quiet spot for gentle outdoor time.

“Riley is the best and my pup Sage loves her walks with him. It’s so nice to come home to a happy and calm dog. I have no doubt that she is always taken such good care of by Riley. He’s gone above by bringing in packages on my doorstep, picking up her dog toys, etc. I love getting to see all the pictures and updates of my fur baby while I’m at work.”

About: I have four dogs at home, a cat, and two tarantulas! Thus, i’ve had plenty of pet care-taking experience since I was a child! I take my dogs on walks, play with them, feed them, and offer cuddle time every day! I also have a cat, which goes the same for her too :) I can also take care of exotic pets, as I do so for my two tarantulas. I’m available to take care of your pets anytime besides Monday nights from 5:30-6:30pm. Otherwise, your convenience is my first priority. I can do overnight and even check on your pets in the early morning. My care is crafted around your time and needs. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort in both my home and clients’ homes. I closely follow care instructions, maintain a clean environment, provide regular potty breaks, feeding, exercise, and ensure pets feel calm, secure, and well-supervised at all times. I can crate your dog as needed, play with them, let them out, etc.

About: I give dogs a calm & predictable experience. I adjust to different personalities and energy levels, whether that’s a relaxed senior dog or a more playful, active pup. I can help with walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, and I’m flexible when my schedule allows (including last-minute requests!). I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep each dog’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable :) **Note: potty-trained is a requirement for care in my home - thanks! My schedule is flexible, so I can help with walks and drop-ins during the week, as well as daycare and boarding. I follow your dog’s routine, whether it’s a quick visit/walk or a longer stay at my house. Aside from the occasional errand or outing, I'm home most of the day (weekdays and weekends) and spend a lot of time with the dogs in my care. My dog, Emory, is very easygoing and gets along well with both calm and playful dogs. Dogs have access to a fenced yard and doggie door, and I'm available to provide potty breaks as often as needed for dogs who can't use it. They're also welcome to get on the furniture! For walks and drop-ins, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own and make sure everything is secure when I leave. I provide regular updates and follow your dog's routine and any specific instructions to help you and your dogs feel comfortable while you're away.

About: Know what it takes to deal with weiner dogs, chihuahuas, and even senior dogs. I’ve grown up with all of them. I love all of them and know how to make a dog feel comfortable. I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility to go check on your dog! I know what it feels like to leave your beloved pet at home while you’re at work so I’m happy to step in! I will play with your dog. I will rub your dogs belly. I will feed them and give them water. If they want to run around, I can do that too. I’ll take them potty. Whatever you tell me to do, I’ll do it

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and truly love spending time with animals. I worked for a dog care company for several summers where I gained hands-on experience with walking, feeding, and supervising multiple dogs with different personalities and needs. Since then, friends, neighbors, and families have trusted me to dog sit and house sit while they travel. I’m attentive, responsible, and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I live an active lifestyle and love going on walks, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and outdoor time throughout the day. I have a large fenced backyard that gives dogs a safe space to play, explore, and get plenty of exercise. I also live near several walking trails, which are perfect for active pups who enjoy longer walks. I make sure every pet is supervised, comfortable, and cared for like they are my own, while always following the owner’s routines and instructions.

“Kristen has been absolutely wonderful with my dog, Maverick! She’s incredibly responsive, communicates throughout the day about how he’s doing, and always sends the sweetest updates. I really appreciate how flexible she’s been with my schedule and how dependable she is. It’s such a relief knowing Maverick is in great hands — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy walker!”

“Puanani was a wonderful caretaker and friend to my furry family! Nice long walks, great details, photos and attention was given to my dog and it made me feel SO much more comfortable being away from home. I will definitely book her services again!”

About: A safe, loving, and fun home away from home for your pup! My home is full of love for dogs and all their unique personalities. I have two dogs of my own—Oreo (4) and Wylie (2)—who are friendly, well-socialized, and comfortable around dogs of all sizes. They love to play, but they’re also great at entertaining each other if your pup prefers a calmer, more relaxed environment. With plenty of free time during the day, I’m able to provide lots of attention, care, walks, and companionship to make sure your dog feels comfortable and happy. I treat every dog like family and am committed to providing reliable, loving care tailored to their individual needs. Whether your pup has a specific routine, training schedule, or special instructions, I’m happy to follow it closely to help them feel safe and consistent while you’re away. When your dog stays with me, it’s like visiting their fun uncle and cousins—full of love, playtime, and comfort—so they come home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I also provide daily photo and video updates, and I’m always available if you’d like to check in for extra peace of mind! Since I have plenty of free time during the day, I’m able to structure my schedule around the dogs in my care. My days typically include regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and lots of attention and supervision. I live in an apartment that offers plenty of space for pups to play, relax, and enjoy lots of love and cuddles. My home is fully stocked with toys, healthy treats, and potty pads if needed to help your dog feel comfortable and cared for. I keep my home clean, safe, and secure at all times, making sure pets don’t have access to anything harmful. I’m very attentive to each dog’s unique needs and make it a priority to provide regular potty breaks, multiple walks throughout the day, and personalized care. I’m also fortunate to have easy access to great walking trails in my neighborhood, which makes for fun sniffing adventures, exercise, and enriching outdoor time for your pup!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for pets my entire life & enjoy pet sitting for family and friends. I love to walk & hike & will ensure your dog has plenty of exercise. Also enjoy playing fetch in my fenced in yard or providing attention & company for older pets. I have experience giving medications and providing extra care for senior dogs. I work full time at home Monday - Friday & have flexibility to provide walks & playtime during the day & after work at my house. I am also available for pet sitting cats at your home. I have a fenced yard for your dog to play outside. Your pet can roam freely inside or sleep in a crate based on your preference.

About: Hello everyone!, my name is Dominique and I have always had a dog in my life. My earliest memories consist of watching and helping my dog give birth and raise 10 puppies when I was 4 years old. Volunteering at the Austin Animal Center as a teenager was a natural step in my love for animals. I walked the small dogs outside for bathroom breaks and playtime while keeping puppies occupied when their crates were getting cleaned. I also walked the large dogs from their suites to the group play area and supervised multiple large dogs’ interactions. My friends have been trusting me to care for their animals and homes for 7 years now, and I have absolutely loved it! My experience ranges from small dogs to big dogs, puppies to seniors, and I have administered oral medication numerous times. The longest I have house sat was a week straight and the most animals I have cared for at a time is 4. I can’t wait to meet you and your babies❤️ I am currently working part time as a babysitter so I have a lot of availability for walks, feeds, hangouts, play, and cuddles! I am available seven days a week for feedings, walks, and daytime care starting at 10:30 am and into the night. For housesitting visits, I can come and stay at your house Friday night, Saturday night, and holidays for overnight care. First of all, I respect, follow, and complete all written or spoken directions on how to care for your pet and take care of your house. A typical sitting appointment for me is being there to provide food/water, frequent bathroom breaks, outside play, inside play (if given permission), a walk around the neighborhood (if requested), and a movie night with unlimited cuddles 🥰. I believe that it’s important to follow your pets’ cues so if they need extra attention, I am there to play or run around and if they need more space/alone time, I give them that time adjust. While we are having nap/down time, I will complete any household task asked of me which can consist of gathering the mail, putting out trash cans, watering the plants, etc. My favorite part of this experience is forming a bond with clients both human and dog so you can feel comfortable leaving your home in a trusted person’s hands!

About: Hi I’m Sarah! Dog mama to Maci (Siberian Husky) and Koa (an Australian Shepherd). When I’m not spending time with my family, you can find me hiking, kayaking, or in a training class with my young pup, Koa. There has never been a time in my life that I haven’t had a pet to care for - from dogs to cats to bunnies. As a pet owner who has had to travel from time to time without my animals, I know how hard it can be to leave your beloved fur baby behind for a trip or even just a long day of work. I am passionate about bringing you and your pet peace and comfort during the occasional times apart. I have experience with all ages of dogs from 8 weeks old to seniors and am happy to be available for drop in visits (whether routine or on occasion) as well as walks. My goal as a pet sitter is to bring peace of mind to you, and lots of pets and playtime to your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends soon! I am currently working part time from my home in southwest Austin, making my days open and flexible. With notice I am able to provide care any day of the week. My pets are a part of our family so we spend a lot of time snuggling inside. That said, they’re full of energy so I am no stranger to a good game of fetch in the yard or a long walk. I am comfortable feeding, crating, walking, and playing with your pet as well as giving them lots of affection.

About: I've always loved animals. From the time I was able to convince my parents to let me get a pet, I've been caring for dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, chickens, amphibians, and fish. And because that wasn't enough, I found every opportunity I could to be around more animals, from taking riding lessons to doing 4H to petsitting for friends and family to being an AKC junior handler to volunteering at animal rescues. As I've grown up my love for animals has only grown too! Now, I am a full-time freelancer with plenty of flexibility to come show your pets some of that love. I have experience administering medication and working with animals of all ages and care needs. I am a full-time freelancer so my schedule is very flexible! I have availability in the mornings, evenings, mid-day, on weekdays AND weekends, and even on some holidays. I currently offer services in my clients' homes. In addition to my petsitting experience, I have many years of housesitting experience and will make sure everything is taken care of while you are away!
