Renada was great! She watched my 2 cats while I was out of town and did a fantastic job. She was punctual, communicative, and sent great pics. One of my cats is very shy with new people and she did a great job at adjusting his feedings and making him comfortable. Will definitely be booking again!

Magda is helpful, reliable, friendly, and exceptional. She provided exceptional care for my small dog the past few months. She frequently would check in and provide updates during the walks, and following the end of the session. I’d highly recommend Magda’s services.

Kaile has been such an amazing rover to us since we used her. She helped me out during a last minute check in and it’s been great ever since. She leave amazing rover report cards and sends you lots of pictures of your dog during the visit which is always enjoyable to see. My dog loves her visits and I have no worries when she drops in to visit Mia

About: I grew up in a dog-loving family and have been surrounded by dogs for most of my life. Although I was afraid of dogs when I was little, overcoming that fear gave me an even greater appreciation for them. Caring for dogs has become something I truly enjoy, and I’ve gained experience with their daily routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. A few years ago, I also became a cat mom in the most unexpected way when my cat, Lola, found me and became part of my family. Caring for both a dog and a cat has taught me that every pet has a unique personality and different needs. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, cuddle, or simply enjoys a calm and familiar routine, I’ll provide patient, attentive care tailored to them. My family dog, Ruby, now lives with my parents, so I miss having a dog by my side every day. Pet sitting gives me the opportunity to spend time with wonderful dogs and cats while giving owners peace of mind, knowing their pets will be treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. I work full time 7-4, so I am available after 4 on weekdays, and available on weekends to come over and take care of your babies! I want to make your pet as happy as possible when you are away. I love to be outside with them and take them on walks, or just hangout in the house and play as well!

Mya was absolutely amazing with my cat! She communicated with me throughout the entire stay, followed every instruction perfectly, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious she genuinely cares about animals and has such a kind heart. I could tell my cat was well cared for and in great hands. I would recommend Maya to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you again, Mya—I truly appreciate everything you did!

Morgan did an outstanding job caring for our fur babies! When we got home our two cats and dog were full, happy, and not starved for attention at all - the last one is a rarity when we're gone for as long as we were. Morgan was prompt and followed their feeding and medication schedules to a T. We'd love to have her watch them again!

About: My family has always had dogs in our home growing up! I adopted my own puppy, Billie, 3 years ago. I have had bad experiences with boarding her and understand the anxiety with sending a fur baby there. I always offer to pet sit my friend’s dogs when they go out of town because Billie loves slumber parties with her friends! I work from home 2 days a week and only go into the office a for a few hours 3 days a week. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. I have a large fenced back yard and a very walkable neighborhood. I can easily crate your dog or give medication if it is needed!

Michelle was absolutely incredible, and I will definitely be booking her again when I’m out of town. Her care for our dog went above and beyond—she was attentive, provided daily updates, and offered valuable insights. Throughout the entire experience, she was highly communicative and thoughtful, even when I made scheduling errors. I cannot recommend her highly enough, especially for anyone with high-needs pets. 10000000/10 A truly exceptional sitter!

About: I’ve been around and helped care for my family’s pets (dogs, cats, rats, fish, hermit crabs) since I was super young! My family and I have fostered both cats and dogs of all different ages and needs for 15+ years which helped me learn how to properly administer medications, potty/litter box train, feed, and overall just handle animals. I spent over a year working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and afterwards found a new and strong love for private pet care because I feel as though it allows me to provide my clients with the quality, 1 on 1 care that their furbabies deserve and that I crave. Back in Florida, I had built up my client base to over 30 different families where I managed all of the bookings, overnight stays, check ins, and marketing by myself. I feel incredibly lucky to have met all of those clients, earned their trust, and cared for their pets. I am hoping to build up a wonderful clientele here in Austin and can’t wait to connect with you! I have a full time job and work from home most days so I have moderate flexibility if your pets need care during the day on weekdays! Other than that, my weekday nights and weekends are usually pretty open. I do not do any pet care or sitting in my own home, however, I promise to take exceptional care of your furbabies AND your home while you’re away. I’m happy to provide play time, potty breaks, feedings, you name it! When it’s time for me to leave I’ll make sure your kiddos are in their designated spots (whether that be a crate, backyard, free roam of the house, etc) for when being left alone.

Alyssa was wonderful! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and truly cares about them. She followed all of my directions carefully, was punctual, and gave my cat Teddy all the playtime, attention, and snuggles he needed while I was away. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely hire Alyssa again!

Michael was absolutely wonderful! He was reliable, punctual, and took such great care of our cats while we were away. He administered medication to both of our senior cats with confidence, kept us updated after every visit with photos and detailed notes, and always reached out if he had a question or needed clarification about anything. He also followed all of our care instructions to a T—from administering medications, feeding our diabetic cat separately, monitoring food and water, cleaning litter boxes, checking on a few household items, and making sure everything was secure and our pets were safe. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our babies were in such caring and capable hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats, and were incredibly grateful. We will definitely be booking Michael again, and we're pretty sure our cats are already missing him and all the cuddles and attention he gave them! We highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter.

We had such a wonderful experience with Timber’s sitter! She came to our home for drop-in visits while we were away and took amazing care of him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being checked on by someone who genuinely loves animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos after each visit. Timber was happy, well cared for, and comfortable in his own home while we were gone. We could tell he was getting lots of love and attention during every visit. We are so grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again the next time we need someone to care for Timber!

Nola has cared for our two cats since 2017. Nine years, dozens of bookings, and the only reason we're stopping is that we moved out of state. If that alone doesn't tell you everything, here's the rest. Our shy cat, who used to hide from everyone, now greets Nola at the front door. That transformation happened through years of patience, gentleness, and genuinely loving attention. Every visit came with a thoughtful note and photos, litter scooped, fountains refreshed, food routines followed exactly, and the little quirks of each cat remembered and respected while taking care of the house while we are away. Beyond the care itself: Nola is the sitter you can build a life around. She flexed her schedule for our emergencies, covered us when travel plans went sideways, and never once in nine years gave us a reason to worry while we were away. We handed her our keys and our fur babies through job changes, family trips, and everything in between, with total peace of mind. If you're lucky enough to find Nola available, book her. Your pets will love her, and so will you. Thank you for nine wonderful years, Nola. Peanut and Donut will miss you, and so will we.
