Dog Walking in Sweet Briar, Austin

“Excellent pics! My girls can be a handful but they were smiling by the end of their walk with Dan! It was a comfort to have him checking in, walking them providing treats, and topping off their water ❤️”

“Julia provided extra support with Chevy while I was out of town and my boyfriend had to work late! She was consistent and took great care of my pup. Will book her again!!”

“Jillian did a wonderful job with our pup. She took him for a walk, played fetch with him, and even did some tricks for treats with him. We are so grateful that she was available to take care of him and I would definitely recommend her. Bonus: she takes awesome pictures. Our pup looked like he was having a blast.”

About: I love dogs, and animals in general. I think it is my empathetic nature that gives me an ability to understand them and their needs. I have taken care of many dogs from chihuahuas, to dobermans, to bulldogs; I love them all. I especially love big dogs because I believe they are the most playful ones, but small ones are equally adorable. I like to stay active and go outside as much as possible. I like to take dogs to local dog parks and trails for them to make doggy friends and to enjoy nature. I don’t mind at all spending my free time by taking great care of your dog(s) and having fun with them! I am currently doing college but I keep my schedule very flexible. I am usually free anytime on weekends and during holidays. From previous employments I have learned to be flexible with my schedule and how to balance work with school. I give the dogs I take care of my undivided attention. I treat them as if they were my own because at the end of the day they are animals, creatures that I know need care and attention.

“So dependable and good with my pup! Thank you so much Megan!”

“I've got a senior dog with health issues who has been wearing the cone of shame. Jackson never gave up and continuously showed up to take care of my pup, make sure her needs were met until she adjusted just fine. Working odd hours is stressful, but knowing my pup is being taking care of with consistent care has helped me so much. Also, his communication is clear and he's very friendly!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover (yes, my first email was animalluver4life@hotmail). I grew up with nine dogs — each with their own Christmas stocking — and now have two pups and one very loved cat at home. I’ve cared for senior dogs, special needs pets, and cats of all kinds. Whether your pet wants cuddles or space, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved. I have been working from home since 2020 which means my dogs are used to going in and out whenever they’d like. Happy to accommodate any eating or medicine schedule based on the animals needs. I am able to check on/or walk animals in other household at any time, as I make my own schedule. I have been told I’m kind of a “helicopter parent” when it comes to my dogs but that comes in handy when dog sitting! I have a fenced yard, two little dogs, and animals are allowed on furniture! I am fine with separating my dogs, if that’s preferred - I have the space! Guests will have first priority, of course. I have experience with crated dogs and do have my own large crate here.

“Christine was a life saver during our recent visit to Austin. The hotel we were staying at didn’t have a pet area and the closest grassy area was several blocks away. Our Pomeranian Gigi loved her outings with Christine, she is highly recommended.”

“Victoria is awesome! She is a great communicator, is always on time, and most importantly, my dog absolutely loves her!”

About: I love dogs! (cats too but I'm allergic) I care for a few of my friends dog and keep my home pet friendly at all time but I do not have any of my own pets. I also have a nice fenced backyard that dogs love almost as much as me. While I owned my own dog for many years work and travel has kept me from having one of my own. I don't have any special skills per se (unless your dog happened to know sign language) but I have decades or experience, a great deal of patience, and excel at walking dogs of any sizes as I am told by many I am a natural leader. I am able to dog sit throughout the day time or even overnight if need be. Weekdays and weekends are both possible with advanced notice. I often work from home at my kitchen table which is connected to the living room giving the fur baby plenty of space to hang out and be comforted by my presence. Of course, I always take time to stop and play. I have a large fenced in backyard and a big open indoor space with both a downstairs and an upstairs, The AC is on at a cool 72 degrees and there are water bowls and snacks available for the little or big guy,

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was eight years old from: Dachshunds to Labs to Huskies and etc. I believe the best way to train/build trust with a dog is through a lot of love, extreme patience, plenty of treats, and a willingness to understand that dogs will be dogs sometimes. I work fully remote from my fenced-in house Monday-Fri with my girlfriend Monica and her German Short Haired Pointer, Coco. We both take care of her throughout the week. I give Coco walks during lunch and access to outside to bark at the squirrels when she needs to. Happy to bring your pup into the fold or walk/work with separately if needed. I believe the best way to build a relationship with dogs is love, patience, trust and plenty of treats! In my experience, it’s always best to come in with a willingness to wait and understanding that dogs will be dogs.

“Danielle was great with coming by to walk my dog Roxy for me while I was gone! She was very attentive, communicative, and flexible. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Anna is reliable, communicative, and is so thoughtful with my dog. She goes at his pace and sends lots of photos. Thanks Anna!”

Amy R.

“My dog Millie loves Ashley. She has been walking her for years. Ashley is always reliable and has even come last minute when needed. She's flexible and willing to work with my schedule. I would highly recommend her if needing someone to care for your animals!”

About: I can visit, play, feed, administer basic meds, and/or walk your pet! I have walked cats (haven't met one that has wanted to run while on leash yet though ;) .....). I love taking walks & being outside. I can jog with your pup too, but with intermittent breaks (2 knee surgeries-so I keep it light). I've owned, rehabbed, and fostered all kinds of animals from basic pets to opossums to foxes and everything in between! I’ve had animals since I was 8. I’ve taken care of animals, house sat, and boarded for friends/neighbors/clients over the years. Also have experience in basic dog training & love to work on enrichment! I adore all animals and promise to love them just as much as you do. I'm detail oriented, reliable, trustworthy, and a positive person. Please let me know if they have any allergies to treats-I do bring some with me! If I house sit-I bring my own sheets & bath towels & will ensure your home is as it was when I arrived - meaning I’m clean & will keep it clean! My current animal situation: (1) cat who is timid. I do overnights with animals & dog walking with Austin Animal Center, and foster when timing permits! Work remotely, so I have flexibility and time to help with your animal(s)! I love taking walks & since I don’t have a dog right now, I walk dogs at AAC and walk the trail on the weekends. Happy to accommodate to whatever is needed. Any of my pricing includes feeding as well as time with them: playing, walking, etc. - never just a walk and leave situation (unless that's what you prefer). I will uphold any rules you have (staying off of furniture, etc) or offer a bit of training if you like. I can administer pills/shots. I’ll send pictures, let you know upon arrival and departure, and ensure your animals are well taken care of & loved!

“Taylor was wonderfully communicative, very accommodating to my little pups needs and open to bringing along her own pup for extra socialization on the walk. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi there! I’m Elena, a lifelong dog owner. I love dogs and can’t imagine my life without them, the fun times and all the love and joy they bring into our lives. I’ve cared for friends and family members’ dogs and cats since I was in middle school, walking them, feeding them, and pet sitting them while their humans were traveling. I love how each pet has their own personality and the little funny things they do - they always bring about giggles and a smile to my face. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup and getting to play and care for them. I’m currently a grad student working part-time with plenty of flexibility in my schedule both during the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with you to coordinate a time that works well for both of us. I’m happy to walk your fur babies around your neighborhood and/or check in on them and let them out in your yard and play with them. I’m very detail-oriented and mindful of any directions provided to help ensure your pup has a positive experience. My goal is to ensure your pups are comfortable and well-taken care of.

About: I don’t know what to say really in these bios, but I will be late because I’ve pet a dog. I have a Maine coon cat and I used to have a dog and in his elder years He was in a wheelchair diapers. I’ve taken great care of my animals that I’ve rescued. ive even rescued kittens and puppies. I like to keep my load a bit lighter these days, but I do like to have dogs stay at my house as long as they’re great with cats and my cat loves dogs. I also really like walking dogs or checking in on them too. I love cats and I will do the same too with them, but I will not board a cat at my house. I however will not sit because I will not sleep over at somebody else’s house, but if you need your dog to stay at your house, I can check in as much as possible. I think dogs are superior to humans and I’d rather hang out with them any day of the week. I read their language very well and I’m good at training. Right now I’m actually waiting on a puppy in my life so I am also looking for a job in accounting so right now Pet care fits in my life 24 seven at this point and that could shift and change whenever everything else changes but right now, I would really like to take care of your pets as long as you have me I personally have a one bedroom apartment with an elevator and there are two dog parks in my apartment. Complex are generally empty. I hike every Sunday but now that I’m not working full-time I hike a lot more so I’m willing to take your dogs on hikes as long as that’s OK, but I will always keep your dog leashed because that makes me feel more responsible. I will abide by whatever you need of course. I am quick to respond and if you need anything you can always call. I understand what it’s like to have a pet and be concerned and if you want to just make sure everything’s good we can do that.
