Pet Sitting Travelers Rest

About: I'm a dependable animal lover who understands that every pet has unique needs. I've cared for puppies, pregnant dogs, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I'm comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, or companionship, I'm happy to help. I'm also comfortable administering medications as directed and providing extra patience and care for senior pets or those recovering from illness or surgery. I'm primarily looking to provide dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I also offer in-home care for both dogs and cats while you're out of town, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship in the comfort of their own home. I prefer not to spend the night myself, but will come over multiple times a day and for extended periods so your fur baby never feels alone. If you'd prefer they not spend the night alone, please consider boarding them with me. 🐾 I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make every visit safe, stress-free, and enjoyable for both you and your pets. I typically work from 5:00 AM to 2:00 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for afternoon walks and drop-in visits. If your pet needs an earlier check-in, I'm often able to accommodate early morning visits or work them into my lunch break. I'm primarily looking to provide dog walks, potty breaks, feeding, medication administration, and drop-in visits. I also offer in-home care for both dogs and cats while you're out of town, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship in the comfort of their own home. I prefer not to spend the night myself, but will come over multiple times a day and for extended periods so your fur baby never feels alone. If you'd prefer they not spend the night alone, please consider boarding them with me. 🐾 My goal is for your pets to feel like they're on their own all-inclusive vacation—full of playtime, belly rubs, treats (with your approval!), and lots of personalized care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have two fur babies of my own, both under 30 pounds, and have cared for dogs of all sizes—from small breeds to dogs well over 100 pounds. One of my dogs is intact, so I'm experienced with caring for dogs in heat, pregnant dogs, and their unique needs. I've also owned and cared for cats throughout the years. My home has a securely fenced yard and is available for boarding when needed. However, I generally prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routine. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, providing overnight care, or house sitting while you're away, I'll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I'll also care for your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and treating it as if it were my own. My goal is for you to return home to happy pets and complete peace of mind.

About: I have been around animals my whole life! We have fostered from the shelter, rescued from the shelter, and cared for animals for as long as I can remember:) I work at a school M-Fri. My work day ends at 3:00. I would love to come help out with pets any time from 3:00-8:00pm during the week! If you see a Saturday or Sunday open I will be available from 8:00am-5pm :) I am flexible though, please inquire ! 😊 I will respect any and all requests by all pet owners. I know how important fur babies are to each and everyone in your family. I will have excellent communication with all families and make your pets safety my number one priority.

“Well, what can I say . . . . Anna was amazing! She's a conscientious, caring, and brilliant young woman. She took care of my senior cat that needed somewhat complicated medicine twice a day in such a way that I had absolutely no worries about my cat for the whole week I was away. I highly recommend her and will be using her again for sure. Book her with confidence. You won't be sorry! So glad I found you Anna!”

“Christina is a loving, professional caregiver to your pets! Whenever we return home, our little pet family is very happy because they've been well cared for.”

About: Leaving your dog with someone else is a BIG deal, and I want you to feel just as comfortable with their stay as they do. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 16, from pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors to now caring for animals every day on our little hobby farm in Travelers Rest. Our home is perfect for dogs who love being outside, exploring, playing, and getting plenty of attention. Think of it as a little farm getaway for your pup! We spend lots of time outdoors enjoying the property, going for walks, playing, and soaking up some fresh air instead of being cooped up inside all day. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels, from tiny lap dogs to big, energetic breeds. I also have experience administering oral and injected medications and caring for senior dogs. Most importantly, I want your dog to feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether they want to explore outside, play all afternoon, or curl up and get some extra love, I’ll meet them where they are. If your pup would love their own little nature vacay while you’re away, I’d love to have them! 🐾🌿 Your pup won’t be spending their stay waiting around for attention! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be home throughout the day for playtime, walks, potty breaks, and plenty of love. We live on a small hobby farm in Travelers Rest and spend a lot of our time outside. While our property is not fenced, outdoor time is always supervised and dogs are kept safely leashed as needed. I love creating a stay that feels less like traditional boarding and more like your dog came along for their own little country vacation. Lots of fresh air, attention, play, and room to enjoy being a dog. 🌿🐾 I don’t have a fenced yard, but we spend lots of time outside feeding our animals and playing. We also have our own private nature trail on the property where dogs can go on walks and get some real exercise. It’s a calm, low traffic setting away from busy roads.

“Aspen & Nathan were responsive and professional. They took great care of my cats, some with more complex care requirements. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“I booked Sara last minute for a weekend trip and she was super helpful and accommodating! She did drop in visits for my 3 cats and 1 dog. She loved the animals and they all loved her!! I am so happy that I found Sara and plan on hiring her many more times! 10 out of 10 stars for Sara!”

Mark W.

“Very very appreciative of Kathryn. She was so helpful and ensured that all of our pets’ needs were met, going above and beyond to make sure that everything went well. I’ve had a few less than pleasant experiences on here, so coming home to happy pets and no mess was a relief. I absolutely recommend booking with her.”

About: Hi! I’m Kimberly. For over 15 years, I’ve provided devoted care for my beloved pet clients — from gentle-giant Great Danes to tiny weenie dogs, fuzzy kitty cats to squeaky guinea pigs. Dogsitting was my first job! My favorite part is getting to know each fur baby’s unique personality and being their auntie for during the time I get to spend with them. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits, with a particular soft spot for big dogs, nervous dogs, and pets who need a little extra patience to feel comfortable with someone new. I’ve cared for everything from puppies who need help with their routines to large, anxious dogs who take some time to warm up—and I’m happy to meet each pet where they are. During a visit, my priority is making sure your pet gets more than just the basics. Depending on their routine, that might mean a good walk, playtime, enrichment, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, or simply some calm companionship. I pay attention to their behavior and adjust to what they actually need that day. Communication is a big part of my care. I’ll keep you updated during visits and send photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. I also take your instructions very seriously and want you to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I’m calm, attentive, dependable, and genuinely adore all animals. My goal is for your pet to look forward to seeing me—and for you to be able to leave home without worrying about them. ❤️ Think of me as your furbaby’s new auntie. My clients trust me not only as a walker and caregiver, but as someone who safeguards their pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent presence and flexibility for your pets. Whether weekdays or weekends, I can be available for walks, companionship, and the attentive care they need. My schedule is adaptable, so your pets receive steady, reliable attention while you’re away. Your pets’ comfort and security are my highest priorities. I mirror the love, structure, and attention they know from you so they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. Many of the pets I care for experience anxiety or stress when their people are gone. I provide the calm presence, consistency, and reassurance they need to relax. From senior pets to high-energy pups, I adapt my approach to match their unique needs and personalities, always keeping their wellbeing front and center.

“Emma was amazing! Our pup could not have been in better hands. She went above and beyond in every way. Absolutely awesome job. We are definitely recommending and definitely using Emma again if we need a dog sitter.”

“Deb had our backs last minute when we needed her and she did a great job!! Very respectful of our needs - she made it a worry free, easy process! Will definitely use her again.”

Jordan C.

“Kyle's communication was great! Our cats (cowards) seemed remarkably relaxed when we got home.”

Allison S.

“Kimberly is so good with Daisy! She also is very observant and goes beyond taking care of Daisy to take care of packages and anything extra that comes up.”

Terry S.

“Kylie was a fantastic cat-sitter for our 2 fur babies. This was our first time using rover + leaving them with someone other than family, and she was very understanding of my anxiousness around that. She always let us know what was going on during check-ins and provided us with a lot of photos. Our cats warmed to her very quickly. We will definitely be booking Kylie for future cat-sitting/check-ins.”

Tabbitha B.

“My dogs love Katherine! She was prompt, responsive, and provided timely updates. This was my second time using her and I would book her again.”

About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised. I would prefer crates brought when staying with me just for safety reasons! & if I were to watch your pup in your hone they’d get the same love & care they receive from you😊

“Cindy saved me with the last minute, same day sitting! She was very communicative and everything looked well taken care of when we got home! Highly recommend”

About: I’ve grown up with high energy Aussies since I was a kid. From the moment I moved to a pet friendly home and schedule I started on the Aussie pack I have now. I have trained two dogs from puppies and rescued two from unfortunate situations. Therefore, I understand and can assist in potty and leash training, socialization, or a good old fashioned game of fetch. I’ve always loved working with dogs and seeing the joy they get from just being with you. In college I often volunteered with animal shelters to assist in socializing dogs. While I was active duty military I relied on my dog sitter to ensure my pups were getting all of their energy out and getting all the love with my unpredictable schedule. Therefore, I know how important it is to have someone who you can trust with your pups. I will strive to treat your fur babies just like my own because they’re our family! I recently retired from active duty military and am taking some much needed down time with my 4 dogs. I am available Monday-Saturday and would love to fit your fur babies into the routine! I have a large fenced backyard, I believe in positive reinforcement, and have 4 excited friendly pups who would love to share their space and toys with any new friends that want to play!

About: Animals have been apart of my life since birth. I have had the pleasure of taking in and mending injured wildlife. I have experience with taking a care of senior dogs and cats. I love animals and enjoy spoiling them as much as I can! I own and operate a business and do that throughout the week, and would like to spend time helping and hanging out with animals when I am not doing that. I have a large yard that gives animals a chance to run and play while being away from main roads. I keep a close eye and there are several places close to bring pets to walk and explore the outdoors!

About: I’ve had dogs of many different breeds since I was born, so I’m experienced with just about every type of dog. I currently have two miniature dachshunds and devote my time to them and to full time pet sitting. I also frequently care for my sister’s two dogs, who I consider my niece and nephew, a female poodle, Vivienne, and a male Maltese-Bichon Frise, Wally, six and three years old, respectively. Also my mother recently adopted a puppy from the shelter, we think he is a french bulldog/boston terrier/boxer mix, his name is Griswald and I looove him. I love dogs of all kinds and sizes, and I volunteer with Pug Rescue Austin when I can. My favorite (and only) form of exercise is dog walking, and I would love to care for your dog-child. I’m currently dog-sitting full time, so I am free to devote all my time to taking care of your dog. My dogs stay with their grandmother when I’m boarding a dog, so your dog-child will receive my full attention ❣️🐕 I make sure that the area is safe, clean, and has plenty of toys. Your baby is always allowed on my furniture, couch, bed, everything; to make themselves at home and hang out and cuddle with me. I maintain a feeding, walking, and potty time schedule.
