“Christine was wonderful! This was our first time booking her services, and I would highly recommend her. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she had a lot of experience caring for animals. She was easy to talk to, had good communication during our time away, and went out of her way to care for our dog, Jovi (who can be a bit of a handful and hard to walk sometimes!). She even went out of her way to take him to his favorite park/trail one of the evenings. The coolest thing was finding out she had cared for Jovi when he was a puppy before we adopted him (we’ve had him since he was 1 year old). His previous owner had also contacted Christine for dog sitting, and she was able to look back through her pictures and find young puppy photos of our Jovi! It was totally meant to be! 😆 I highly recommend Christine for all of your animal care needs!”

“Mandee was great and I would recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Communicative, sent a lot pictures, and made it easy to trust her. Thanks Mandee!”


“It was so great to be able to rely on Dina for the best service possible for my Kaila. Kaila is a high energy pup and I was so grateful for Dina to make sure that she would be all tired out and happy to see me home! I highly recommend Dina - she's wonderful with Kaila!! I would have given this 10 stars if there was an option. thanks, Dina!”
“Paula was an outstanding cat sitter for our 14 year old Lola. She spent a lot of time with her, administered her medication and gave Lola her favorite treatment - a good brushing. Lola was calm and content when we returned from three nights away. I highly recommend Paula is you need an attentive and caring cat sitter.”


“Mia accepted a last minute 5 day stay after another rover sitter cancelled 30hrs before the start of our booking. She was so kind to make a meet and greet work same day. She took great care of Clyde, sent photos and was proactive and promptly responsive with her communication while we were gone, and left our house in great condition — washed our sheets, took out the trash, 0 dirty dishes. 10/10 recommend her for not only great dependable care but also being a lifesaver so last minute. Thank you, Mia!!!”


“It was a pleasure having Stephanie in our home! Our poodle is very particular about people and took to her immediately. Will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Ali watched our 3 terriers for a week and helped us feel Comfortable about being away from them for so long, and did great with our older one who is blind, deaf and needing meds.”

“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”

“Willow went above and beyond. Our dog got skunked and Willow did a great job handling it. We know Daphne is in great hands with Willow and we look forward to Willow caring for Daphne again.”

“Jordan is a wonderful pet sitter! Great communication, kept us posted with lots of photos. Took great care or our house, too. But most importantly, our dogs loved him! Definitely would book again.”

“Another great stay with Aleksi! He was so flexible and understanding with what seemed like our ever-changing schedule after some travel difficulties, and as always took such amazing care of Woody and our home. Always five stars!”


“Carol is the absolute best! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation. I’m thankful to have found her and will definitely be booking again with Carol next time we travel. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets, homes, and property for friends and family. From dogs and cats to small rodents, animals have always been a big part of my life and my family. I started pet and house sitting at 19, and now, at 26, I’ve built years of trusted experience caring for pets with patience, attention, and reliability. As an active person, I love spending time outdoors with animals, whether that’s walking, playing, or just keeping them company and helping them stay comfortable in their routine. I also understand the importance of maintaining good control and awareness while handling pets of different sizes and personalities. I do have asthma, but it has never stopped me from being dependable, active, and fully attentive while caring for animals. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness always come first with me! Hi! I’m a South Austin pet sitter currently accepting drop-in visits and house sitting bookings. I love providing dependable, personalized care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Being local allows me to provide reliable care for nearby families while keeping up with your pet’s normal routine. I specialize in caring for cats and small dogs and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, meals, fresh water, playtime, enrichment, medication reminders, walks, or extra companionship, I’m happy to help! I prioritize communication and will always provide thoughtful updates, photos, and details so you can feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for. I’m currently flexible with my schedule and available for both drop-in visits and house sitting. Starting August 24th through December 10th, my availability will be focused on drop-in visits Friday–Monday due to my school schedule. While my weekday availability will be more limited during this time, I’ll continue providing consistent, attentive care and clear communication for every booking I accept. I also love becoming a familiar face for pets and their families, so repeat clients are always welcome! My goal is to make pet care easy and stress-free for you while giving your pets the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to become a trusted sitter for you and your pets in the South Austin area! When booking with me, you can expect reliable care, clear communication, and someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I make it a priority to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide updates, photos when requested, and make sure your pets receive attention, exercise, affection, and a clean environment while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with respect, care, and responsibility so you can feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands.
“Maddy is probably the best Rover sitter I’ve ever had. Fairly last second, we were able to find her to watch our boys who can’t be left home alone for 5 days straight. She was awesome. The boys were actually depressed watching her leave, we had to cheer them up but they waited at the door for her. If she is ever available again, she will be our go to. She even did random chores around the house that she didn’t need to do but was so sweet of her. The boys were well taken care of and she was super communicative about everything. I’ve never felt so stress free leaving my boys home alone before Maddy.”
“Cortney watched our cat and dog for 12 nights and came home to a tidy home and happy pets! She was gracious enough to stay an extra night for us when we missed our flight and were stranded in another city for a night. Thank you Cortney!!!”

“Nicole's the best, she helped me with my Cubbie when he wasn't well. He's well because Nicole cared about his well being. Nicole is the Best, me and Cubbie appreciate her time.”


“Jubilee did a wonderful job watching our pup over the weekend. She sent plenty of updates and even stepped in to help her when she received a little wound from licking a hotspot. We will be requesting her again next time we need a pet sitter ❤️”

About: I’ve been pet sitting on and off since I was 14, caring for pets for friends, family, and others over the years. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, stopping by for a visit, or making sure your pet has everything they need while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your routine and your pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, a quick potty break, or some company while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate! I fully understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. During walks, I’ll keep your dog secure and attentive to their surroundings.

Melissa was an excellent caretaker for our cats while we were away and we will absolutely be using her for her services next time we go out of town. She was communicative, reliable, and went above and beyond to care for our cats as well as our home which was so appreciated.

Teagan went above and beyond to keep us updated on how our precious dog was doing while we were gone. It’s always nerve wracking letting a stranger stay in your home and leaving your pet in their hands. Teagan left our house extremely tidy and sent several photo updates throughout our trip. We will definitely book her again!

This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Malery. She was very communicative and took extremely great care of Gilly. Any worries I had were quickly washed away due to Malery’s professionalism and initiative. If I am out of town again, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Malery again!

Marley was such a blessing! I just moved to Austin and I haven’t felt safe enough to let anyone watch my dog, but she made me feel so ease. I felt totally comfortable with her in my home and she left the place in perfect condition. I will 100% be using her again when I go out of town. Thank you Marley!

Thank you Maddy! I travel often for work, so finding a reliable sitter I can count on means a lot. She communicated throughout my trip and I came home to a happy pup! It was such a relief knowing he was well cared for while I was away. I’ve already booked my next trip with her and would highly recommend!

Haley was great with our last minute request to watch our 3 dogs for a night! She was patient with our youngest, who can be a little rambunctious and our oldest who takes a takes a bit to warm up to new people. We had great communication and I felt like my babies were well taken care of by someone I could trust.

Katherine is a wonderful Petsitter! Our dog Sandie loved the long walks, play time in backyard, and snuggles on the couch. Katherine also took great care of our senior cat Prissy, including taking Prissy to an important vet appointment. We felt like we could relax on vacation because our girls were in great hands with Kat. Kat is mature, conscientious, and responsible. She’s also so gentle and loving with pets. Plus, our house looked even better than we left it! I would highly recommend Kat, and I hope to book with her again!

Chelsea was absolutely wonderful with our dogs and very patient when we needed to introduce our more tentative dog Mapo to her twice before her stay. She showed great experience with a more sensitive dog and he warmed up and loved her! She took care of our 2 dogs at our house for a week and they were very happy and comfortable with Chelsea - it was clear from all of the photos/videos she shared. Highly recommend her for any dog sitting or walking!

Amy did an amazing job watching our dog Teddy while we were out of state! She took excellent care of him, sent pictures and updates and was responsive throughout us being gone on how he was doing! She is very responsible and kind and we could tell our pup had a great time with her! We will definitely book Amy again and appreciate her so much!! We know she took great care of our dog and he had a great time with her!
Kiersten was exceptional! She took excellent care of my senior dog, Lennon, while housesitting. Her communication was great and I received multiple updates and pictures throughout her stay. Lennon got exercise, stimulation, and lots of attention. I came home to a happy pup and it was clear he had been well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Kiersten and hire her again!

Hannah was absolutely wonderful! She was attentive, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful throughout her stay. It was clear that Nala and Bodhi were well loved and cared for while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also went above and beyond in caring for my home. I returned to a freshly vacuumed space, a made bed, clean dishes, and even the dog poop in the yard had been picked up and bagged! It was such a lovely feeling to come home to everything so well taken care of. I’m incredibly grateful for Hannah and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, considerate, and attentive sitter. I would absolutely book with her again!
