“Chealsea took great care of our pup while we were out of town for a family wedding. She arrived as planned, sent us an updates twice/day and took some fabulous picture. Plan to use her again and refer her to friends!”
“Tristan was awesome! We have a 16 year old large dog Gigi who can be skittish with new people and Tristan was patient and kind and won Gigi over. I highly recommend Tristan!”
“We really loved Elizabeth! The dogs, as well! One of my dogs, who is not affectionate with his kisses gave her a few licks! I am pretty sure she is the first person to get licks on the first visit. I know my dogs are in good hands with her!”
“Kristen did such an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were away. Our plans changed slightly and she was very accommodating and responsive to help however needed, which we appreciated so much. Will use her anytime we can and highly recommend, thank you!”
“Ashley had done an amazing job with our cats and we are thankful to continue to use her services. She always provides us with updates and photos while we are away. I would highly recommend her to watch your animals.”
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”
“Michael did a great job! My dog’s love him! When I’m away, Duke only eats for him. He gives them baths also. Sometimes I’m gone working 3-4 days a week. I know that they are in good hands. That’s always a relief for me. My 3 dogs are so happy to see him. He has been watching them for 4 years now!! Thank you!”
About: I've been working as a dog groomer for the past two years, but had to pause that to focus on my health. I've volunteered walking dogs in animal shelters, and as a child mucked horse barns and brushed/washed horses in exchange for riding lessons. 😂 I've loved animals my entire life. I was raised in a family of 2-6 dogs (it increased frequently) and will admit only here that I loved them more than I loved my sister! I'm currently coming out of treatment and unemployed, so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends! My only obligations are a weekly monday appointment and a biweekly friday appointment. I have a very nice, soft voice for any frightened pups, and am told I'm a bit of an animal whisperer. I will do my very best to connect with your animals and individualize my care in any way I can!
About: I've been a vet tech for 13 years and can offer a variety of care for your fur besties. I can offer walks, overnights, medicating, and some basic grooming needs. I can care for more than just cats and dogs. Please don't hesitate to reach out about other types of animals also! I currently work full time but I don't let that stop me from being there for your pets! I can do overnights so your pets have someone there in the mornings and the evenings. I will try my best to provide the same care and attention that the pet is used to. I will make sure to get as much information from you about your daily routines to ensure that they feel like you are there with them!
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who need extra gentleness. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping feeding routines consistent, and reading pet body language. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and let them go at their own pace and make sure every pet feels happy, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I love to do. I work remotely two days a week, and my schedule is very flexible and easily adjusted. I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, feeding, and playtime, and I’m happy to follow their routine to keep them happy and comfortable. I make safety and comfort my top priorities while caring for pets in their own home. I always supervise playtime and walks, keep their environment clean and secure, and follow all instructions for feeding, medications, and routines. I’ll also provide regular updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Kalli was awesome! She took excellent care of our pets and gave us regular updates so we didn't have to worry. I would highly recommend her and I'm sure we will be using her again.”
About: I have been dog sitting for various families in the greater Austin area since I was 15. I have experience with both puppies under 1 year and senior dogs. I love all kinds of animals and am passionate about caring for them well. I am currently in college, graduating in May where I plan to do pet care full time as I job hunt for my future career. I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am young and fit, so I am very comfortable taking your pet for a long walk as well as just hanging out and spending time with them if that is more their speed. I am a clean person and have experience with caring for dogs in their own homes.
“Deonna was a blessing to have sitting both of our cats! She was very thorough following my care instructions and bonded with one of my more shy and timid felines pet 🐈. I loved the daily reviews from the visits and pics as well kept me from any worries. I would definitely have her care for my cat's again!”
About: I have had animals my whole life, my experience has entailed caring for dogs in their basic needs, maintaining training and working on other commands, as well as taking them to any appointments that were in order. I really enjoy time spent with dogs, and just like me I understand that most people consider their dogs to be family. I like meeting new dogs and learning all their little personalities. I would be great as a sitter or walker because I genuinely care about animals and feel that they make life so much more fun and enjoyable. I have experience with both larger breeds and small breeds so I am comfortable around all different kinds. I wish I could have more animals so this is the only acceptable alternative :)
