About: With nearly four years of dog-sitting experience, including caring for my own childhood pup, I understand the importance of trust and personalized attention when it comes to your pet. Working from home allows me the flexibility to offer care while you’re at work or enjoying time with friends. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some company during the day, I’ve got it covered! I’m experienced with senior dogs, ensuring they get the medications they need on time, as well as sticking to special diets when required. From puppy energy to senior snuggles, I treat each dog like they’re my own, providing the love and attention they deserve. Let me give you peace of mind knowing your dog is in safe, capable hands! As someone who works from home most days, I have the flexibility to give your dog all the attention they need—including frequent bathroom breaks and daily walks along the beautiful Lady Bird Lake! Living close to the lake and surrounded by Austin’s many parks, I can ensure your dog gets plenty of outdoor time to run, play, and explore. Since I’m already walking by the lake every day, bringing a furry friend along just adds to the fun! Whether it’s a casual stroll or an energetic play session, your dog will have an adventure-filled day while you’re away. Let me make sure they enjoy Austin’s outdoor beauty to the fullest!! While I live in an apartment, I have plenty of space to comfortably crate your dog if needed, with options in the living room or entryway. Located near Lady Bird Lake and several parks in Austin, your dog will have ample opportunities to run around and enjoy the outdoors. I treat every dog with the same care and love as my own, and I’m committed to respecting your home too. You can trust me to leave your space exactly as I found it, ensuring your dog feels safe, happy, and well-cared for.

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!

“Aisling was absolutely great! She’s administered my puppy’s meds, took great pics, and made me feel so comfortable while at work. I would definitely book again!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep understanding of both pet behavior and care. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I having had dogs most of my life, I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and mental stimulation. Your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll thrive and be loved in your absence. I currently work from home, so I am immediately available to take them on walks, etc. I understand the importance of routine in our lives. I have quick access to lovely dog-friendly spaces downtown. I can accommodate your dog’s crate with ease. My lovely building is filled with great pets.

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.

About: I’ve had at least 2 dogs ever since I can remember, I recently moved and can’t afford to have one at my new apartment complex so I’m missing some puppy love! I would love to walk and sit with your babies while you are away! I am a teacher so my summer is completely open, meaning I’m free anytime you may need me to visit or walk your pets for you! I am more than happy to visit your home so your pup is in the most comfortable environment for them. After a few visits with your pet I would be open to having them at my home if that’s something that would make you more comfortable. I also have a dog park at my apartment if you would like your dog to socialize with other pups.

“Arianne provided excellent care for Izzy. Izzy is usually shy and takes time to warm up to new individuals, but she connected with Arianne very quickly. This immediately put me at ease. I would absolutely recommend Arianne to anyone seeking a caring and trustworthy individual.”


About: Hi, I’m Ashley. I work from home and offer thoughtful, low-stress care for both dogs and cats. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away — with a routine that’s calm, structured, and tailored to their needs. Every stay starts with a gentle welcome to help your pet ease into the space — including calming music and quiet downtime. Once they’re feeling settled and secure, we turn up the fun with play, affection, and plenty of personalized attention. In addition to boarding and daycare, I also offer drop-in visits and dog walking, with the same level of care and attention to what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m home full-time during the week, which gives me the flexibility to adapt to your pet’s routine — whether they need quiet rest, structured play, or extra attention during the day. I’m also happy to help with last-minute bookings whenever I can. I live in a two story townhome in a pet friendly complex, with a few go-to enrichment tools to keep pets mentally stimulated between walks or play time.

About: Begged for a puppy since I was 12, have been taking care of my own since then. I’ve noticed a Samson- shaped whole in my heart since 2016 (RIP), love when I can help others take care of theirs 🥰. Promise to not get jealous, k? I’ll keep my end of the deal up 🙏🏽 I’m working part-time & remote. I have a pretty flexible schedule, and prefer to go out in the afternoons/ sunset hours to get that vitamin D 😎 I take care as I would want someone to take care of my Samson. I can also bring along my best friend’s Pomeranian if we’re trying to get social
