“Sarah was a great communicator the entire time and proactive about all logistical things! She was super flexible when I had to add an additional day of care last minute and checked in about anything she had a question about while my dog was with her. Keanu came home happy and well-cared for :)”
“I must have done something right in a past life to have found someone as caring, amazing, and intentional as Kate to look after Princess. I got photos and videos everyday of her playing and having a good time, and she came back happy as ever. It was my first time leaving for over 2 weeks, and I was nervous, but all that went away when I saw my pup was in the best hands. I recommend to everyone.”
“Cassandra & Jason took such great care of my dog. They took her on daily walks, gave her lots of love and even took her on some adventures. I think she got lots of love and attention when staying with them. I would definitely use them again when going out of town.”
“My sweet but high anxiety little Maltipoo was so happy staying with Lilia. Lilia has a great yard for little dogs and was very accommodating to our drop off and pick up times. Loved the pictures she sent us too. It was a great experience and we will definitely use her again!”
“Alice took such wonderful care of Milo. He has some reactivity issues which she was very mindful of prior to booking and during his stay which allowed me to feel at ease while I was away. She sent frequent updates and pictures and overall very communicative and quick to respond. Milo was so relaxed and happy upon pick up, he seemed to have a great time playing lots of fetch and hanging out with Corrah (Alice’s sweet pup). Thank you so much, Alice!”
“Callan and Chris were so welcoming of our dogs. They were flexible, friendly, and reassuring about our dogs who can be a bit anxious. They sent timely picture updates of our dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Christine and Colin took amazing care of my Tieghan! It was my first time leaving her with someone outside of family and I felt comfortable from the minute I dropped her off. They sent consistent pictures and updates on how she was doing throughout the 5 days I was gone and were really flexible with pick up and drop off times. Tieghan barely wanted to leave when I arrived to take her home and it was clear they really treated her as their own! I will absolutely be using Christine and Colin again and cannot recommend them enough.”
“Our dog Archie absolutely loved staying with Wilson, Jessica, and their pup Winnie! They kept us updated with so many amazing and adorable photos! Their care of our pup was above and beyond. We will use them again!”
“Joel is so great! He was very communicative and helpful in easing my anxieties on leaving my fur baby with a sitter. I had some concerns since she’s a bit of a handful at times but he handled her with ease and did a wonderful job at it. We also had some scheduling issues but he worked with us and was extremely helpful. He provided many photos and kept me updated on how she was doing. 10/10 I will be booking with Joel again! 😄”
“Cheyanne was a great sitter! You can tell she loves dogs with all of her heart from the moment you meet her. My dog has a pretty… mischievous personality and she took it all in stride :)”
“Rose was great with our little dog last month. He immediately warmed up to her. She has a big, beautiful backyard that is a peaceful place for little dogs to roam and explore. She communicated well with us while we were traveling and sent cute photos. He was in good hands. Thank you Rose!”
“absolutely love working with Erika!! she takes great care of cooper and he comes home super happy and tired. she sent tons of photos and videos and he had an awesome time!!!”
“Absolutely amazing Rover experience. Ivon is fantastic, you can feel her love and care for your pet. I’d trust her with Maggie any time, no questions. Maggie was sick to start her stay and Ivon provided regular communication and amazing care that left me with no doubt Maggie was in safe, secure hands.”
“Eddie & his wife were absolutely AMAZING! They sent tons of photos & updates, took Brewski for a walk & I know he was well taken care of as if he were their own! My dog had such a blast with Eddie’s family (including their dogs)! HIGHLY recommend & will definitely use again in the future!”
“Annie takes wonderful care of our girl, Roxy! Thank you Annie for another great stay! Roxy comes home tired after all the fun she has playing with Annie’s doggies. Thank you!”
“I recently used Zoe to take care of my dog, and I was thoroughly impressed with her service. Zoe was exceptionally good at communicating, providing regular updates and pictures that put my mind at ease. She demonstrated a high level of responsibility, following all my instructions meticulously. I felt confident that my dog was in great hands and well cared for. I highly recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Rui was so attentive to our Biscuit! She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos as well. Since she had a yard he was able to run around get a lot of exercise which I can tell really made him happy. Overall super happy with Rui and will definitely be booking Biscuit another stay in the future.”

“Sara was AMAZING! She sent details consistently per visit, informed me of everything pertaining to ms Camille. I will definitely be keeping her for Camille… and hopefully Nyla 🤞”
“I was away for two weeks, and she checked on my cats every 3 days while I was gone. Since they have automatic feeders and an automatic litter box, I mainly needed someone attentive to make sure everything was working properly — and she was amazing! She was very caring with my cats, kept me updated, and always sent pictures during her visits, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I could tell she genuinely cared about them. I would definitely choose her again if I need a pet sitter in the future!”

Rachel also let me know about a few minor issues due to kitten clumsiness right away. Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“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!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last 25 years of my life. I just love how every pet has its own personality and how you connect on different levels with them. I treat every animal like my own, with patience, play and lots of belly rubs! I’m a homemaker so I have plenty of time especially in the mornings when my daughter is at school; and since I just have one kid and one dog I’m very available I have a fence yard in my house and a dog park in my neighborhood as well as a dog park just across the street
“We are so grateful to Mishayla for taking care of our kitties, Lucy and Axl, while we were out of town. Mishayla gave us plenty of pictures and updates on how they were doing. We would fully recommend her to anyone needing pet care help, and would love to book with her again if we need help. Thanks Mishayla!”

“Chris and Callan were absolutely wonderful. They helped me at the last minute with daycare and were friendly, flexible, and responsible. My dog, Sevi, seemed to feel immediately at home in their house, even venturing up the stairs on her own to explore minutes after I dropped her. She came back at the end of the day happily tired and calm.”
“Jen was great with my pup. Xena is a sweet and nervous around other dog; Jen was more than accommodating and took her time introducing her to the other dogs. On her second day she was fully part of the pack and I had a great time at puppy land. I would definitely recommend her services 10/10”
“I was very happy and satisfied with the service I received from Alonso and his wife Eva. They treated my dog Charlie with compassion and affection and truly cared for him like he was part of their family. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Charlie was in such kind and attentive hands. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you both so much! If I ever need doggie daycare again, I will definitely use your services.”
“Great experience overall. Aimee is personable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she watches. I feel safe leaving my dogs with her and will definitely be coming back!”
“Elizabeth and Adrian were absolutely amazing with Nala! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. They were caring, attentive, and made sure she felt comfortable and loved throughout her daycare stay. Nala had an absolute blast, especially making a new furry best friend, Niki! It was so heartwarming to see how much fun she had playing, socializing, and coming home happy and tired after a full day of adventures. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our girl. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be booking with you again. Highly recommend Elizabeth and Adrian to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and loving pet caregivers!”
“Alice took great care of our two pups during their day care stay with her. She was communicative and sent regular updates and photos during their day care stay with her. She followed instructions in their care sheet and was flexible with pick up and drop off times. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: TLDR: Goober is a 2c year old goober who is depressed when he doesn't get to play with friends. Sitter has 30+ year of extensive care experience with large and small animals. There is a 7 year old in the home and we ask that your dog be respectful of kiddos. He is at his Dads every other weekend so you might be with us when he isn't there. Also, most dogs ignore the kid because Goober is the main attraction. I'm very experienced in animal care and will take the best care of your dog. I'll also offer suggestions and input in making your dogs experience the best possible experience. --- Hi! I'm Rhiannon and this is Goober. Goober is a 2 year old akita/pyrenees/super mutt mix who is playful, happy, eager to please and very energetic. He loves being our family dog but he misses playing with dog friends and would love a dog sleepover with your pup. He's friendly, easily corrected by more alpha dogs, and can't stop/won't stop (till nap time in his crate). I'm Rhiannon, and I have so much animal care experience it's not even funny. I owned a horse for 30 years! (We just said goodbye to him last year at 33) and have cared for all aged animals for decades. I had a special needs pug and I used to rover all the time other special needs dogs when she was alive. I'm comfortable with basic medical care/first aid and basic training. I have a pretty solid routine so your dog will be on a schedule! We decided to get back to some Rovering so that Goober could show his true Southern hospitality to other active and playful dogs when their parents work long hours or are out of town. We've had wonderful times with our Rover sitters and wanted to provide affordable and quality care when we were available. This is for fun for us! We would be looking for all types of dogs, from other active and playful dogs to senior pups and everyone in between. We'd love for your pet to come over and enjoy our fenced in backyard, long walks/rides in the nature preserve next to our neighborhood, South Walnut Creek Hike and Bike and Boggy Creek Greenbelt. Dogs are fed twice a day (that can be modified if necessary) have a relatively stable routine of eating, playing, walking, napping, sunning, eating, playing, napping, walking. If your pup has special needs, separation anxiety, or behavior related to being in another place, let me know! We can work together to ensure your dog doesn’t have behaviors that would hurt himself or harm property and ensure they have a relaxing time with us. I want your dog to be relaxed, chill, and be so excited to come to our house when y'all are busy or out of town. I can give subcutaneous and intramuscular injections, medication, basic first aid if necessary. Since most dogs don't LOVE younger kids, we ask for a meet and greet if you aren't sure about your dogs behavior with a kid and to make sure the vibe is good with Goober. but if your dog is comfortable with kids or we've sat for you before, then just book us! But I'm very cautious with all dogs and kids since MOST dogs find being around children stressful (that being said, PLEASE leash your dogs when you are around children in public parks and playgrounds and always supervise kids and dogs :) My son is educated in bite prevention and respecting dogs, but I'm very careful! I usually ask all non-neutered/spayed or not-yet neutered/spayed dogs and male dogs who have a history of marking to bring a belly band to have on hand so that my 100-year-old original hardwood floors and my cheap amazon carpets don't get tinkled on. Most male dogs do mark in the house initially since there is a another male dog in the house. It just makes the visit go smoother and is good to have on hand anyway. Easy to get one delivered by Chewy too in prep for an upcoming stay. I work from home so the doggie will rarely be home alone and if I do have to go somewhere, I'll schedule them to nap while I'm gone in between play sessions. Please ensure your dog is crate trained and provide a crate (if you don't have one, I do have some). If you dog prefers to be gated in a place like a bathroom or laundry room, I have gates too. Kongs/Woof toys will be given whenever I leave so it actually is an enrichment time for them. I try not to leave new dogs home alone until they are comfortable in the house- I want them to have a good stay! And if I do I often bring them for a car ride. Here is a recent schedule from a sit I did: 6:30-7:30 am: Wake Up, Backyard Play Time, Breakfast 7:30 - 9 am: Play and Morning Walk 9 - 9:30 am: Enrichment in crate (Woof) 9:30 am - 12 pm: Morning Nap (in crate) Between 12 pm - 2 pm: Indoor Play and Outdoor backyard time 2 - 2:30 pm: Enrichment in crate (Woof) 2:30 pm - 5 pm: Afternoon Nap (in crate) 5 - 6:30 pm: Backyard play and indoor play 6:30 pm - 8 pm: Evening Walk 8 pm and on: Bedtime (in crate) The safety of the humans are the utmost priority for our household, that is why we ask for a meet and greet if you are unsure how your dog will be in our house. But we do hope to build long term sitting relationships with folks because we do really love dogs and Goober does get lonely and wants his buddies. It is essential that my clients entrust me in taking the best care of your dog, and I think you'll get to know me quickly that the dogs truly have "the life" at my house. The environment is dog safe, with a fenced in back yard, and the house is kid/dog proof. There ARE chickens but they have a separate, secure run and will not be coming into contact with your dog. Goober tries to catch them and then pluck the feathers out of their butt, so as long as your dog isn't a "proven" chicken killer, we should be good. If your dog is like Goober and has a strong prey drive and looking for a snack, I just keep the chickens in their coop when your dog is out in the backyard (usually dogs get backyard morning and evening. Chickens get their run during the day). Let me know if you dog can scale a 4 ft. fence!
“I am writing this after the first week of daycare for my young lab and could not be more pleased with the care and attention she is receiving. Lola has “endless energy” and came home exhausted every day! Ashley has provided great communication throughout and I would recommend highly.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for over five dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages with my family. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I understand how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I love spending time playing, walking, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s belly rubs, outdoor play, or quiet company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy! Besides dogs, I love all animals! I have had bunnies and birds before and know how to take care of them! I work remotely full-time, which which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay. My daily routine is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, medication routines, and regular check-ins. I like to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Whether they need active play, quiet company, extra patience, or a calm space to relax, I do my best to adjust my day around their comfort and needs! I live in a spacious apartment that offers plenty of room for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well supervised! I got my two friendly American Shorthair cats at home, so I’m very mindful about introductions, boundaries, and each pet’s comfort level. I always take time to understand how each pet does around other animals! If a pet needs their own space, quiet time, or a slower introduction, I make sure they have a calm area where they can relax. I keep the environment clean, organized, and peaceful so every pet feels cared for during their stay!
“Strongly recommend. Communication with Alex was great before and after the booking. Alex was responsive, helpful and put me at ease about bringing my dog for day care. She sent updates throughout a day, and when picked up, the dog was calm, restful and in a good mood.”
“Kristina was so awesome! She sent so many pics and kept me in the loop, I was nervous bc she was my first rover babysitter but she is awesome and I would rebook again!!”
About: Hi! I’m based in Northeast Austin and a lifelong dog lover. 🐾 I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I also have a dog of my own who is truly my pride and joy, so I understand how important it is to know your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Because I’m home full-time, your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day; no long stretches alone. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, or just relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like part of the family. 💕 I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in great hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! My schedule is open throughout the week and weekend. I’m available between the hours of 8:00am - 8:30 pm. Can be flexible if needed! :) I am very respectful and caring. I will follow any rules or directions you have for me while caring for your pets. They will be treated like they are apart of the family!
“I want to say thank you very much! I am so glad I found Melanie she is so amazing and I am so happy! Mila is enjoying herself so much and I can say that for the first time I am calm because I know that Mila is in good hands.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and exercise.

“Derik was great. We were passing through and needed a sitter for a few hours. He took them for a walk, and let them just acclimate in their own time. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of friend's and family's dogs for years! Natural dog lover at heart but unfortunately haven't been able to adopt a fur-friend of my own. Experience with shy timid dogs that need a calm friendly companion to look after them! I currently WFH so have lots of time to spend with you pups! Available for day care and boarding week days and or weekends depending on need Live without any other pets so your pup will have a calm relaxing environment to stay and roam in (plus all the undivided attention!). Can easily crate your dog too if needed
“Jessica was an amazing dog sitter for us and we HIGHLY recommend anyone use her. She sent us photos and took amazing care of our dog while we were on vacation. We would be thrilled to book with Jessica in the future!”
About: Howdy!! I am so excited to look after your fur baby. I currently live in the East MLK area and a dog mom to a 3 year old Shorkie pup named Michi. She is super playful and loves having guests in our home. I've been dog sitting for about 7 years and absolutely have so much fun getting to meet and play with new friends. I’m 8 minutes from the airport and am flexible with drop off/ pick up times. Super excited to meet you and your child!! **wanted to make note that my response rates and acceptance rates have been low since I had been with roommates previously but am now able to accept or decline requests immediately based off my availability*** My job schedule is currently a hybrid model and can choose which days I decide to go into the office. I do not stay at the office for more than 5 hours so that I can let my puppy out to potty. Michi and I love to go on walks in the mornings or in the evenings when it’s safe enough with the heat to walk the dogs. My home has an open floor plan inside connecting my living room and kitchen. I currently live in a condo and there’s plenty of space for the doggies to lounge around and cool off on the cold hardwood floors 😅
About: 10+ Years of active dog care 6 Years living with a dog 3 Types of dogs cared for Dogs have been part of my life since I was 12 years old — and my passion for them has only deepened with time. Over the last decade I've cared for puppies, rescues, and domesticated dogs of all kinds, giving me a well-rounded understanding of different temperaments, needs, and personalities. For six years, I shared my home with Charlie — a black Labrador × French Bouvier mix. Raising a large-breed dog from day one gave me hands-on experience with exercise needs, training reinforcement, and the deep bond that comes with consistent, loving care. I work part-time remotely. So, I can be flexible with my schedule; I generally like to get things planned and have things in the pipeline, so I always like a bit of notice before you book me for sittings. I am quite flexible and love to have fur babbies around me. Depending on your dog's needs and schedule, I am happy to accommodate. I have a fenced ground-floor balcony for dogs. If you wish your dog to be in a crate, I am willing to have the crate in my living room. There is plenty of room.
“Happy puppy upon arrival, tired puppy at pick up! Lynne was great with communication, lots of photos of my happy pup and made it an effortless drop off / pick up. Beau was loving being there and I’m confident that he was in great care. Will 100% book again :)”

“Madeline was absolutely incredible with Frances! This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy that it was with someone as wonderful as Madeline. She was professional, kind, and provided me (a certified helicopter mom) with incredibly thorough updates. I would recommend her to all and will definitely be asking for her help again!”
About: Being honest, it has always been incredibly easy for me to connect with pets, especially dogs. I now have a 2 year old shihtzu who I absolutely adore and spoil every day. Sometimes I feel like he needs a little brother or a friend to play with, and even when I’m out with him, you’ll still catch me trying to pet every dog we pass. I simply love them deeply. Before having him, I had a Chihuahua for 13 years, and she taught me so much about unconditional love. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ dogs whenever they needed help. One moment that really showed me how naturally I bond with dogs was during a family beach trip, we found a big Boxer in the backyard who barked nonstop and scared everyone away. I was the only one who tried to approach him calmly and understand him. After spending time talking to him through the fence, he eventually trusted me enough to let me pet him. Soon after, I was able to go into the yard with him, and he turned out to be the sweetest dog. My family was shocked at how naturally and confidently I connected with him. That experience, among many others, made me realize how much I truly understand dogs, their fears, their excitement, their need for love, and how much joy it brings me to care for them. I am a person that love to exercise, love to go out in walks, hiking and also I love to wake up early. I think that a weekly pet routine would be like a peace time for me. I live in an apartment with my husband and our sweet shihtzu. I’m very flexible and always follow any rules or routines you have: feeding times, portions, walks, medication, anything your pet needs. I’m also happy to do a quick free meet-and-greet beforehand so you can feel completely comfortable and confident with me taking care of your treasure!
About: My lifelong passion for animals began with a stuffed dog named Cinnamon, but it truly came to life during the 17 wonderful years I spent with my Westie, Kirby. Growing up with Kirby taught me the art of senior dog care, from managing slower paces to noticing the subtle shifts in a senior pet's needs. My experience expanded further when we rescued Dewey, a panther-like gray cat. Managing the unique bond between a senior dog and a spirited rescue cat gave me firsthand expertise in multi-pet household dynamics and reading diverse animal personalities. Whether your pet is a high-energy explorer or a soulful senior, I provide the patient, specialized attention they deserve Because I work remotely, pet care isn't just a side job—it’s my daily company! My schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to provide a consistent routine of potty breaks, play, and mid-day snuggles. I’ve recently made my physical health a priority, which means I head out for multiple walks a day. I would love for your pup to be my 'steps-partner!' Since I am home throughout the day, your pet will enjoy constant companionship and the security of never being left alone for long periods When staying in your home, I treat your space and your pet with the utmost respect. I pride myself on being a communicative, organized, and tidy guest. I provide regular photo updates and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. Safety is my top priority; I am diligent about double-checking gates, following specific feeding instructions to a tee, and maintaining any house rules you’ve already established so your pet feels secure and calm while you're away
“Heather was the first dog walker I've ever hired to walk my dog Molasses. In the beginning I was pretty nervous since I didn't know how Lass would do with someone else walking her and having a new person in my apartment while I was gone. Heather was great because she offered to do a meet and great before out 1st scheduled walk to make Lass and myself feel comfortable. I'm so grateful for this meet up! Lass loves Heather and their walks. Between the super cute photos I get and the love that my dog receives, I couldn't ask for a better walker!”
About: Hello! My name is Hannah. I have a 2 year old professionally trained black lab/German shepherd mix named Ziggy that weighs about 50 lbs. He has been raised around children in our neighborhood and is very well socialized. I've had dogs growing up my entire life and prior to my current dog, I rescued a black lab/pit bull mix that lived 15 wonderful years. I feel passionately that my dog is my family and I understand wanting to leave your baby in the care of someone who will take care of them like you do. I'm the go-to person for my friends when they need someone to watch their animals. I've had experience with boxers, rottweilers, yorkies, chihuahuas, (puppy and senior) and everything in between. After many years, I decided to go back to school to get my Master's in Humanitarian Law. I'm currently on a break from studying because I need to make the money I need to finish my degree. My husband has recently retired and we have been enjoying spending our days with Ziggy in the interim. Taking care of animals allows me to work a flexible schedule and enjoy my time with my family before I go back to school. We frequently take Ziggy swimming, for hikes, and to play with his favorite toy (Chuck-It). Looking forward to hearing from you! I'm currently unemployed and have a very flexible schedule. Our days currently revolve around my husband and I's dog Ziggy. We typically work in our garden, are working on decluttering our house, and are enjoying trying new recipes. We take Ziggy to exercise for at least an hour every day (whether that's walking, swimming, or playing fetch). Our dog is part of our family - he is allowed on the furniture and has a large collection of well-loved toys. We typically work on maintenance training during exercise and meal times. Ziggy knows how to place, shake, sit, and lay down on command (most of the time). We use a gentle lead when walking Ziggy to avoid pulling. Ziggy can be a bit spoiled with his food and sometimes needs a treat in the mix to entice him to eat. In our neighborhood, my husband has known all our neighbors for over 20 years. We bought our home in 2019 to be close to those neighbors and to have a community. While we have a fence that closes off our front yard/street, we took down the fence separating us from our neighbors to encourage that sense of community. On a typical day, we will let Ziggy out in the backyard and look up to see him playing with the neighborhood children (around age 5) out in the backyard. My brother and best friend rent rooms in our house and also love Ziggy dearly. There is a 5 year old cat that is an indoor/outdoor cat. He mostly keeps to himself but is very comfortable around dogs. If watching a dog at your house, I'm comfortable with a long list of requests for care. I'm comfortable administering medication, following a special diet, and/or doing anything that's needed to follow your pet's routine and make them most comfortable. I'm happy to meet ahead of any pet sitting requests if you would like to meet me and introduce me to your pet ahead of your departure. I'm happy to send updates/pictures as often as needed. Although I have the list pretty much memorized, I do keep a list of all foods and essential oils that are toxic to dogs. I've been around a variety of dog personalities and don't mind being patient with dogs that may be more anxious or prone to separation anxiety.
“Jackson is very communicative and sent photos and videos of his walk with my pup. He even topped off her water bottle and gave some bonus love to my cat. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for them at every stage, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. My own beloved dog recently passed away at 16 years old, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for a pet. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I truly miss having pets around and would love the opportunity to care for yours when you can’t be there. I’m reliable and committed to making sure every pet feels well cared for in my home. I love spending time with animals and can easily incorporate them into my daily routine. Them being well cared for is my prioritization. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can provide attentive care, plenty of potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I am also quite active, so if the pet needs long walks, they are perfect for my daily walks! Any type of pet fits in my life, from an energetic puppy who needs extra activity to a senior dog or cat who prefers a slower pace. My priority is always making pets feel comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and any special care instructions so I can minimize stress.
About: Hi I’m Kelsey! I’d love to help you with your pet(s)! I’ve been pet sitting for years and have client testimonials I’d be happy to provide you with. Your pet will be in good hands! I will go above and beyond to truly spend time entertaining your pet and brightening their day while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including reactive dogs. I absolutely love spending time with animals and will truly treat your pet like my own. Speaking of my own, I have a boxer who is the absolute light of my life. I love him so much and spoil him rotten. I’ll treat your pet the same! Something you should know about me…When I walk into a house or business with a pet present that’s the first thing I’m paying attention to regardless of why I’m there. I work from home and love going on walks every day. I’d love to take your dog(s) with me on my next walk! Or if you need someone to stop by mid-day because you’re stuck in the office and just want someone to spend some time with your pet I can do that too. I’ll bring my computer with me! Did you think I forgot about cats? Never! I’d love to check in on your cat for you while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to visit your pet soon! I work remotely full time. I’m available most of the day for drop in visits and walks! I can come over in the morning for early morning walks before it gets too hot. I can come over mid-day for a lunch break walk or drop in visit. I can come in the evenings if you have somewhere to be after work and need peace of mind that your pet will be well taken care of. I will take extra care of your pets in your home. I’ll ensure they have everything they need and extra attention while you’re away. I love a good couch cuddle moment with your pet, walks of any distance or length, and am happy to interact with them using whatever toys or things they may have to use or play with. Mental stimulation is very important for pets, especially while you’re away to help their minds and bodies relax. I can use puzzle games, slow feeders, lick mats, or any other things you have for your pet to give them mental stimulation. I take great pride in leaving a place better than I found it and I’ll be respectful of you, your pet, and your home while I’m visiting.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last 25 years of my life. I just love how every pet has its own personality and how you connect on different levels with them. I treat every animal like my own, with patience, play and lots of belly rubs! I’m a homemaker so I have plenty of time especially in the mornings when my daughter is at school; and since I just have one kid and one dog I’m very available I have a fence yard in my house and a dog park in my neighborhood as well as a dog park just across the street
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I got my first dog at six years old, and today my three cats happily run the household. Friends know me as the person who ends up spending more time with the pets than the people, usually on the floor doing what we jokingly call "pet yoga" with whichever dog or cat wants to join. I have a special soft spot for rescue animals, senior pets, and those who need a little extra patience and understanding. I've supported local rescue organizations for years and even helped transport animals for Austin Pets Alive during the Texas floods. Whether your pet wants adventure, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I’m a real estate agent so my schedule is flexible! I’m an early riser and as a life long Texan, I don’t mind the middle of the day summer heat. Having worked with rescue animals and senior pets, I'm comfortable moving at each animal's pace and paying attention to the little details that help them feel secure and stress-free.
About: I had an older dog for four years that I love to take care of. I am flexible with the activity levels of your pets. I work remotely. My job is flexible, so I work from my home or somewhere else. I also am flexible on weekends for pet care. My complex is in a safe area and has an accessible walking trail. I have reliable transportation to get me to and from client’s home.
About: I bring 3 years of professional experience working with cats and dogs, handling everything from daily care routines to administering a variety of medications and basic medical support. I also have seven months of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from energetic puppies to large breeds like Mastiffs, and am comfortable meeting the needs of pets with different personalities and care requirements. I work full-time at an animal shelter, so providing attentive, compassionate care for animals is already a part of my daily routine. My early morning to midday schedule allows me to spend the very beginning and end of my day focusing on giving your pets plenty of attention, care, and love! I share my home with a kitty who means the absolute world to me. He’s the sweetest boy and is always waiting at the door for cuddles the moment I get home. I make sure to keep life fun and enriching for him every day, whether that’s a long play session, brushing (his favorite) or a special treat. Because of how much I care for my own pet and pets at work, I understand how important it is to give animals the love, attention, and patience they deserve, and I’m confident I can provide that same level of care for your pets.
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!
“I was out of town and just landed in a different time zone when I receive a text from the person I had lined up to watch my dog canceled for health reasons. I threw out some Hail Mary's and Jaime came thru for us! The next day he checked in and asked if Cí Du was good. I really appreciate that! He was very flexible. Especially when the app had issues with time zone differences (VPNs effect it as well). I made the executive decision to overbook him, just incase anything else came up. Better for The Du to have too much attention than none at all, emirate? Jaime was a life saver! Definitely a go-to in the future!”

“Cassandra & Jason took such great care of my dog. They took her on daily walks, gave her lots of love and even took her on some adventures. I think she got lots of love and attention when staying with them. I would definitely use them again when going out of town.”
“Alice took such wonderful care of Milo. He has some reactivity issues which she was very mindful of prior to booking and during his stay which allowed me to feel at ease while I was away. She sent frequent updates and pictures and overall very communicative and quick to respond. Milo was so relaxed and happy upon pick up, he seemed to have a great time playing lots of fetch and hanging out with Corrah (Alice’s sweet pup). Thank you so much, Alice!”
“Callan and Chris were so welcoming of our dogs. They were flexible, friendly, and reassuring about our dogs who can be a bit anxious. They sent timely picture updates of our dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Christine and Colin took amazing care of my Tieghan! It was my first time leaving her with someone outside of family and I felt comfortable from the minute I dropped her off. They sent consistent pictures and updates on how she was doing throughout the 5 days I was gone and were really flexible with pick up and drop off times. Tieghan barely wanted to leave when I arrived to take her home and it was clear they really treated her as their own! I will absolutely be using Christine and Colin again and cannot recommend them enough.”

“Eddie & his wife were absolutely AMAZING! They sent tons of photos & updates, took Brewski for a walk & I know he was well taken care of as if he were their own! My dog had such a blast with Eddie’s family (including their dogs)! HIGHLY recommend & will definitely use again in the future!”

I highly recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

She has an amazing set up with her house/yard and Rufus had the absolute BEST time! We were joking that he went to “doggie summer camp”. I’m so thankful we found Lynne!”
“I felt so much peace of mind leaving my dog with her and her family. They took such great care of my pup! When I picked him up, he was not only happy but also smelling so fresh and amazing. It’s clear they went above and beyond to keep my dog clean and comfortable. I truly appreciate the thoughtful care.”
“I haven’t used Rover in a while as I have a regular sitter now, but the rare time they are unavailable I was quite nervous coming back on Rover again. I’m SO glad I found Sam on here! He was so responsive, made sure to provide me consistent updates and followed my instructions perfectly. Petey (my dog) absolutely enjoyed staying with Sam, I could tell - so I will be using his services again.”
