About: Hi! I’m Kensy a reliable and caring pet sitter based in South Austin. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, I treat every pet like family whether they need a long walk, cozy snuggles, or just someone to keep them company while you're away. I’ve worked closely with families (as a nanny and sitter), and I bring that same nurturing, dependable energy to caring for animals. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry loved one. 🐾 Services I Offer: Dog Walking Drop-In Visits (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) House Sitting (limited availability) Medication Administration (if needed) I’m available mornings, afternoons, and weekends and I’m always happy to accommodate your pet’s specific needs and routines. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away! Based in South Austin, I offer part-time availability in the mornings, afternoons, and weekends. I’m dependable, communicative, and always happy to send photos and updates to keep you in the loop while you’re away. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs around the house , but with my 2 year old shih tzu is the one who is going to be around the house the most . I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces for rest, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. I stick closely to their usual routines (feeding, walks, medication, etc.) to minimize stress and help them adjust smoothly. I never leave pets unattended for long periods and always ensure they’re in a secure, supervised space. I also send regular photo and video updates so pet parents know their furry friend is happy and in good hands.

“Titan was sooo happy with Laura!! Great service all the way around. Baby boy was so calm when I came home to him. It was so clear that he received so much love!”


“Brand new client and I booked 1-2 days before I needed Antonio. So I had a lot of instructions for him and he handled it without any hiccups and took care of the pups in some ways I didn’t specifically note. Would def book Antonio again. Thank you!”


“Taylor was Vespa’s favorite sitter - and I got plenty of great pics to show how content Vespa was during the sitting. Taylor stayed the full 30 min for each stay, if not a little longer, and Vespa seemed to get all of the exercise she needed. You can tell Taylor really loves animals - 10/10”


“Sarah did a great with our fur babies! Even Zoey who doesn’t take to new people quickly came around and was giving kisses. Sarah sent multiple photos and updates during the evening so we were able to enjoy ourselves at the Super Bowl party and not have to worry about them. They were well loved! We have booked her again for a trip in April.”


“Dan was awesome! He came to check in with our dog at our house several times while we were away. We felt like she was in great hands and got plenty of attention, walks and food!”


“We were so thankful to have Samantha watching out over our pets while we were away! It brought us peace and comfort knowing our fur babies were in the care of someone so trustworthy and kind. Samantha did a fabulous job sendings cute pictures and updates of the cats. If I could give 6 stars I would!”


“I booked Samantha for drop-in visits for my cat while I was away for a week. She did a phenomenal job keeping me updated during the week and really made me feel secure that my cat was well taken care of. My cat can be high maintenance in her older age, but Samantha went above and beyond with her care. Highly recommend!”


About: You know that person at the party who prefers to hang out with the dog in the corner? Well, she makes the perfect dog sitter. I have had the priviledge to take care of many breeds and sizes over the years - while I'm particularly fond of the large and extra large gentle giants, it brings me joy to take care of any loving dog. I personally have two dogs with their own sets of challenges: one is a 95-pound old lady with hip issues, who I often have to help into the car or onto the couch; the other is a very reactive dog who I have to be extra careful with on walks. I can't wait to get to take care of your dog(s) - I know the toll it takes to trust a stranger with your furry loved one and I will care for them as fiercly as I care for my own. I am lucky to have a flexible enough full-time job that I can take care of dogs when I don't have any meetings. With enough notice, I can easily schedule around your needs. I believe that a dog tells us their boundaries. If you feel your dog needs to be left in their crate or does better hanging out on the couch when they are alone, I will make sure to follow your strict instructions.

“Madison went way above and beyond when caring for our doggo. We can’t wait to book her again in the future because we know she’ll take such good care of him and send us updates that put us at ease. Thank you!”


About: I got my first family dog when I was 7 and have been helplessly in love since then. I continued to have pets throughout the rest of my childhood until I moved out (a pesky lease is all that's stopping me from having one now). I've been dog/house sitting for various people since my early teen years and currently have regular house holds I sit for to this day. I've worked with puppies and seniors (around 4 months-17 years), sizes small and large (about 2-190lbs), multiple dogs, and those with extra care needs (medicine, diet, behavior, and vet care). I am currently in a positive position to be an active companion to your fur family without any other regular and / or long commitments. *Please note: unfortunately I am allergic to cats and can do drop ins but am not able to sit. I will love them for a couple days but you will love them their whole life and I aspire to reflect that. You know what's best! I have a bunch of tools in my tool belt but I will always defer to you. I also aim to respect any freedom you give me. I have a wide range of basic knowledge but can/will do my research into breed specific care if applicable. Pound puppies have my whole heart so I understand each dog has their own unique needs. I keep a clean house and always keep your dogs in sight at bare minimum. I take note of the weather, temperature, time, potty breaks, and overall day to day play by play.

Sunset Valley pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have never used Rover for our bearded dragon, Bevo, before. Once I found Taylor’s profile with reptile experience, I was hopeful she would be the one for the job. Taylor exceeded our expectations! She did amazing with Bevo and provided so many photos, videos, and detailed updates about our little guy. We truly appreciate Taylor and her taking care of our Bevo!!

I know Sami is a great pet sitter because our cats couldn’t care less about us when we got home. Sami followed all of our instructions, including giving medicine. She sent lots of great photos and when one of our cats had an accident she cleaned up without issue. She is reliable and caring and we felt confident leaving our cats with her. Our kitties look forward to having her back. :)

Mia was amazing at taking care of my cat while I was away for a few days. She sent several photos and videos with each visit which helped ease my anxiety. Also loved how detailed she was in her messages about their time spent together and how my cat was doing. She even scheduled a call before booking to write down any special needs or behaviors to look out for. I’d 100% rebook with her in the future!

Cortney is very responsive and easy to work with. She accommodated a couple of schedule changes with no concerns. I am very happy with the care she provided to our two cats while we were away for a week. I will definitely book Cortney for future pet sitting needs.

Terra was amazing with our cat! She followed all the instructions perfectly, shared great updates after each visit, and clearly gave him lots of love and attention. He seemed super comfortable and happy the whole time, and we really appreciated the photos, thoughtful notes, and playtime. We’d absolutely book with her again!
