“Cassandra and Jason took good care of Zamin and sent updates. The pictures are so adorable… everything went smoothly. I had requested a same day care with them as I made a last minute trip to Austin and needed a place for my pup for a couple of hours. They were really quick to respond and accepted, the booking process went smoothly. Thank you so much!”

“Kate is the BEST sitter. She genuinely bonded with Lois and took such lovely care of her…as though she was her own! Also, she and her husband are lovely people and it was a great experience…lots of photos and updates. Couldn’t recommend them more!!!”


“Denise was so amazing with Finley. Sometimes he takes a while to warm up to people, and within an hour he was sleeping on her lap! We will definitely be using Denise again-- she has a way with animals.”


“Frances was fantastic! She kept us in the loop about how our beloved puppy was doing all day while in daycare. We appreciate the amount of activity she initiated, and the fact that her dogs made great friends to help calm our dog. Would definitely recommend!”


“Rachel and Justin are nothing short of phenomenal! Leaving my puppy Queenie in their care was the best decision I made. They treated her like a member of their own family, going above and beyond to ensure she was happy and well-cared for. Their flexibility and warm welcome immediately eased any nerves I had about leaving her with strangers. Queenie not only loved spending time with them but also adored their fur children and their son. I couldn’t be happier with the love and attention they provided. I’ll definitely be choosing Rachel and Justin again in the future for their exceptional care and genuine love for dogs!”

About: My family got their first dog while I was in high school and I have been caring for dogs ever since! I’ve cared for friends dogs in the past and now I have one of my own who is just the sweetest gal. I’d love to eventually get a second dog but for now caring for others seems like the perfect alternative. I do have a preference for smaller breeds but am open to bigger dogs as long as they can be gentle with smaller dogs. I am currently hybrid at a very flexible job and typically go into the office on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. When I go into the office I go in later in the mornings and spend about 1.5 -2 hrs there. The max time I’ll spend at the office at one point is 3 hours but this is not the norm. Other than that time I spend the majority of my time at home and am able to give your pup all my attention and snuggles. My apartment building has a fenced in dog park where I can take your pup to for potty breaks and safe outside playtime. I also have a balcony with a grass patch for any early morning or late night potty breaks. Pet safety is my number one priority so when I’m not home both mine & your pup would be kept in different rooms with cameras watching them to make sure no one is in distress. I’m also open to doing meet and greets at my place before your pet’s stay with me so that you’ll be able to see what type of environment your pet would be in and how our pups interact with each other. My dog is a 1 year old dachshund who just loves other dogs and would make sure your dog feels right at home!

“Melissa and Hernando were absolutely wonderful. Their home is super clean and they could not have been more inviting.My Maude can’t wait to stay with them again.”


“Kristen is the absolute best! No doubt your pup will come home sleepy and so happy from all the fun. Kristen will take care of your pet like it’s her own and among many other reasons, I am so grateful my dog got to hang with her!”


“Danielle has taken great care of my young mini Aussie puppy Emmi! She has been spending the week days with Danielle and her adorable dogs Allen and Frank and Emmi loves it over there! I highly recommend Danielle!”

About: My husband Preston grew up a dog lover with his two yellow labs, and I am a new dog lover after we got our lovely boy Jet a couple of years ago. We are responsible and would love to take care of your fur baby like it’s our own! Preston grew up dog sitting for friends and family where as I have cared for many a friends dogs throughout the years! I am full time work from home with a flexible schedule. We typically bring our dog out i around 10 am and 6pm for about an hour each as well as 20 minutes around 2 and 10 pm but are available for more frequent walks as needed in addition to a backyard, balconies and toys and splash pad! We have 1 dog (2 year old ~60lb boy named Jet). We live near a park and him twice a day for long walks and frequent the greenbelt. We also have a nice backyard for the dogs to enjoy some fresh air! We have a two floor house if your dog needs to be crated or separated for meal/bed times happy to do that as well!

“Laura was a great communicator and took wonderful care of Lucy. Lots of pictures, time outside, and comfy cuddles and naps. So glad to have Laura nearby. I will definitely reach out again! 💕”


About: I work from home full-time, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I live in a dog-friendly community with a fully fenced-in dog park just steps away, making it easy to get fresh air and playtime in a safe space. I take my own dog on three walks a day (usually 2 miles each), and I love including other pups in that routine if it fits their needs. I’m available during the week and weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific schedule. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable space where they can feel secure and cared for. I live in a dog-friendly building with a fenced-in dog park just steps away, which is perfect for potty breaks and off-leash play. If I ever need to step out briefly, I crate my own dog for safety and structure, and I can do the same for your dog if that's part of their routine or if you'd prefer it.

“Gil is nothing short of awesome! Truth is, I don't want to leave a really good review on here about him, because I want him to always be available when I need him! :) Gil really listened to everything I had to explain about ol' "persnickety" Jack, and was so attentive to those things. I know Jack was comfortable with Gil, by some of the pics I was sent during his stay. I will definitely be booking Gil again, as he is very much a dog person and very accommodating. I went with my gut on this one, and I am so glad I did!”

“Madeline was great with my husky Lena! While we were visiting Austin I needed daycare for a couple days and Madeline was fantastic. Lena had some anxiety being dropped off in a new place but Madeline was super attentive and took her for long walks. Lena became much more comfy and adjusted and excited to return the second day. She was settled in by the end of her stay. I highly recommend Madeline’s services :)”


About: I've helped take care of family pets since I was 10 years old, and my partner and I have 2 dogs together who I absolutely adore ❤️ More than 50 happy pet parents across Austin know me as a reliable, communicative, adaptable, and trustworthy pet sitter! My two fur babies are currently in training, and through this process I have learned a wealth of obedience skills that I can implement when caring for your pet. I also loved training my first puppy, Lucy, and before she passed later in life, I helped care for her when she was struggling with bladder cancer. I cared for my parent's three dogs, including one fur baby who was very sick at the time and needed medication and medical attention multiple times a day. I've cared for other friend and family pets through extended home stays and quick drop ins for walks and feedings. I work remotely, so I have a lot of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day and evening. Beginning in October 2025, I will be a full time pet sitter!! I am available weekdays and some weekends, and can accomodate short notice requests. I am also an active person, so if you have very energetic dogs who need to get their zoomies out, I am more than happy to take them on runs, long walks, or play fetch with them! I have a keen attention to detail and am very particular about how I care for myself, my dogs, and my home, so you can rest assured that I will care for your pet exactly as instructed! I am also very safety minded and will make sure to protect your pet, other animals, and other people they may interact with when in my care.

“I cannot praise Lillian enough for the incredible care and attention she provided to my beloved furry friend while I was away. Lillian's genuine love for animals is evident, and I am always completely assured entrusting my pet to her care. Throughout the duration of my absence, Lillian went above and beyond in ensuring that my pet's needs were not just met, but exceeded. She followed all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions diligently, and even took the time to provide extra cuddles and playtime, keeping my pet happy and content. Communication was seamless, with regular updates and photos that allowed me to relax knowing my pet was in good hands. Their professionalism, reliability, and genuine affection for animals truly set them apart. Thanks to Lillian, I returned home to a happy, healthy pet who had clearly been showered with love and attention in my absence. I cannot recommend them highly enough and will definitely be entrusting my pet's care to them in the future. Thank you for everything!”
