“Excellent care, attentive and responsive with an incredible space for puppies!! Ours was a bit of work but Patrick was great with communication and care for our six month old pup! Not to mention his home is better than any B&B you'll find in Austin! I think our doggie had a better vacation than we did which is just the way you want it!! Thank you Patrick and family!!!”
“Lucia was an absolutely amazing host for our two young pups. They were very clearly well taken care of and treated as her own. I almost thought they might now want to come back with me! I can’t thank Lucia enough for not only her treatment of our dogs but the consistent updates that helped keep my wife’s mind at ease while we were away. I can’t say enough good things about Lucia. You do not need to look any further, this is the person you want to book with!”
“Julie and Michael were able to help us out on just a few hours notice and took excellent care of our dog. They sent updates and pictures everyday, and Nieve seemed like she really enjoyed her time there. We’ll definitely be rebooking soon!”
“Leilani is absolutely amazing, we have a 12 y.o Pomeranian and he was loved and so well looked after. We have had bad experiences in the past with our old man, so we are extremely picky.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“It's the first time we're leaving Kai for so long. They took care of him for 3 weeks and I always felt sure that Kai was fine. He looked happy in the photos and videos walking and playing with his new friends. Yisel is very sweet with Kai. I’m grateful!”
“Absolutely adore Alex!! She took such incredible care of our dog, and it is so clear that she genuinely loves animals. Alex instantly connected with our dog which helped our pup feel right at home. She would talk so sweetly to him and sent us the best picture updates that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Max loves staying with Shannon & Ray. Upon picking him up this time it took a little convincing to get him out of his crate to leave 😅 I'm grateful for them giving Max all the comfort and care that he needs when I'm gone.”
“Nahid has taken care of my 2 dogs twice now. He’s very communicative & great with the dogs. His dog Vincent is so friendly & wonderful with my little dogs. Nahid is very helpful & flexible.”
“Erik and his family took such good care of Brodie. I have never boarded Brodie before and was a little nervous, but Erik immediately eased my nerves with a friendly welcome and consistently sending me pictures, videos, and updates on Brodie. Thank you so much Erik! :)”
“Kerrigan was an amazing dog sitter for our Maple while we were on vacation. She treated her just like one of the family and sent lots of pictures and videos to help us all feel connected. She went above and beyond to make sure Maple was happy, healthy, comfortable, and loved. I would absolutely book with Kerrigan again!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my dog in someone’s else’s house, but Holly was very kind and understanding throughout this process. She sent me pictures throughout the night and made sure to update me about Atlas. He had a lot of fun with the other doggies and looks so happy in the pics. 100% recommend!!!”
“We couldn’t have been happier with Stephanie and her family. We got photos every day of Pippa playing with Stephanie’s sweet dogs and enjoying lots of love and attention. It seemed like Pippa was another member of Stephanie’s family! Five-star accommodations for sure!”
“Sumin and Steve were incredibly kindhearted and warm caretakers! They made Charlie feel at home with their cozy blankets and great backyard during his stay. I loved all the great updates and pictures. I highly recommend this duo! 🤩”
“Lucy's stay could not have been better. The family was very intuned with how she was doing and settling in. They sent me regular communication and photos. We definitely will use them again for future travels. It is obvious that this was a home that loved pets.”
“Maegan and her daughter were fabulous! I was worried my dog might be a lot to handle. Maegan assured me she was familiar with the breed I have. Updates and pictures were sent. I could see my dog was attaching herself to Maegan’s daughter. And I knew she was getting a lot of attention. It was great!”

“Courtney took my request last minute when our prior dog sitting plan fell through. She was extremely responsive and made me feel comfortable that my two dogs would be well taken care of. I loved getting the updates and photos from each visit and being able to communicate between visits. My dogs were clearly comfortable with her, and were able to play, cuddle, and be themselves while I was gone. It gave me great peace of mind of my travels to know they were so well cared for.”
“Amber was so great with my cat. I had to reschedule our meet and greet due to his health conditions and she was very accommodating. She was able to do his subq fluids, give him his oral pill and topical ointment. She is very friendly and I can tell my cat liked her! She provided a perfect amount of information in each summary card. Will definitely book again!”
“Highly, highly recommend Sara to look after your pet(s) while you are away. Sara is sweet as can be, tended to details, kept me posted, and sent pics at each visit. It was these thoughtful details that made me feel at ease being away from my precious four-legged family member.”
“Emily was great with our two kitties while we were away for 3 weeks. She was communicative, affectionate, took lovely pics to share with us, and kept us informed every day. One of our cats has a medical issue that requires daily medication. When our kitty had a behavior change Emily notified us immediately, followed all of our instructions regarding medication dosing changes, and kept us informed. We'll definitely call on Emily for any future cat sitting needs!”
“Cheryal is the best I have worked with! She is so caring and considerate; I feel at ease leaving my fur baby with her. She also takes amazing photos!! Thanks so much Cheryal ♥️”
“Marcela, the cat whisperer! Our kitty is shy and usually takes a while to warm up. But he warmed up immediately to Marcela. She went above and beyond, even sweeping up litter and bringing packages inside. I'll definitely be re-booking with her whenever I can!”
“Caleb did a good job of taking care of CoCo last minute and made sure he had food and water . However, we agreed on arrival between 2pm and 4pm, and he did not arrive until after 5pm, which caused me to worry about CoCo. He also brought someone else into the home without giving me a heads up, which made me uncomfortable.”
“Sarah was amazing! She was on time, had great communication, and provided me with lovely updates and pictures. She is everything you would want in a sitter and kept my mind at ease while away from my fur babies. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable sitter!”

Her love for animals was obvious from the moment I contacted her. She treated my pet with so much care, patience, and genuine affection. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. I received thoughtful updates, and my pet was calm, comfortable, and well‑cared‑for when I picked her up. A true professional with a big heart. Mario”

About: Hello! I’m Sumin, and my husband and I are longtime dog lovers who recently lost our beloved corgi after many happy years together. We miss having a furry friend around and would love to open our home (and hearts!) to your dog. Because we both work mostly from home, your pup will have constant company and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, a nap beside the desk, or a walk around the neighborhood, we make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for—just like family. Having raised our corgi from puppyhood through his senior years, we’re experienced with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from energetic pups to gentle seniors who need a little extra care. We’re calm, responsible, and intuitive about each dog’s needs. If you’re looking for a sitter who truly understands what your dog means to you, we’d be honored to look after them as if they were our own. Can’t wait to meet your pup! I work mostly from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. I only travel to Houston occasionally for work, and when I do, I make sure to schedule pet care around those dates. I’ve cared for dogs both in my home and at clients’ homes, and I always make sure to follow each dog’s routine and preferences closely. At my home, pups have access to a safe, fenced yard and plenty of playtime. We live in a quiet, dog-friendly community that’s perfect for walks.
About: Hey guys! I have been taking care of the doggos for the past 8 years. I have my own Siberian Husky who is the friendliest guy around. I can take care of any medical needs such as oral and intramuscular if needed. My boy has elbow dysplasia so I’m well versed in giving medication. I have tons of patience when it comes to the doggos and will work with them. We have our own dog park which is right around the corner. They will never be bored. I have a hybrid work schedule and my office is 4 minutes away. I’ll be gone in the morning and home by 12pm Monday through Thursday. Friday through Sunday I am home all day. I take care of them like they are my own children. Feed them on schedule and playtime as well. They will get all the love and care that I give my dog Vincent. We will play everyday at the dog park. If you aren’t fond of dog parks for your pup we can go on long nature walks near my neighborhood. If your pup just needs a spot to lay their head and watch movies they can do so on my bed. I have plenty of space for them to roam around have two story apartment with 2 bedrooms. They will love my place.
About: Hi, I’m Alena — a mom of four wonderful children, a travel enthusiast, and a lifelong animal lover. I grew up surrounded by pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs, and spent much of my childhood wishing I could be Dr. Dolittle. For more than a decade, I shared my home with three cats, and over the years I’ve gained extensive experience caring for animals of all ages and temperaments. I previously fostered dogs through Austin Pets Alive and have spent many vacations caring for pets through TrustedHousesitters. I’m comfortable administering prescription medications to both cats and dogs, as well as handling basic grooming needs. Today, I share my home with two cats and two dogs. For the comfort and safety of all pets, my dogs live separately from any boarding guests. Boarding dogs stay on the upper floor and do not interact with my pets. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets, get to know their unique personalities, and help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible work schedule, so I’m available to board your pet any day of the week. I would love to take your dogs for a walk, too! For boarding, I provide a safe space and a pet bed in my bedroom, separately from my own pets. Dogs have free reign in the fenced backyard and enjoy walks around the neighborhood twice a day, ranging from 10 min to 2 hours, depending on their needs.
“Lily was AMAZING! We were in town for it son's graduation, and while our dog is ok at home by himself, he was very anxious here. As we didn't expect it, we were looking for someone last minute. She was able to help for the last several daya we were in town. By the 3rd day, as soon as Lancer realized we were close to her house, he was wagging and super excited. If we lived in the area, I would 100% be a repeat customer.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have been an animal lover my whole life. My parents called me the dog whisperer growing up because I was the only one our dogs would listen to.

“Amtonia was great, very communicative! Made me feel safe leaving Banzai with someone for the first time. She took care of him well and he seemed to enjoy his time with her and the dogs! Would feel comfortable doing it again.”

About: I grew up loving and living with animals my entire life! There hasn't been a time where I haven't lived with an animal of some sort. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and even fish! Dogs, fish, and various sweet rodents have been my life until I was 24, then I met the two feline loves of my life-Carl and Dixon! All of my friends have either a cat or a dog (and often, multiples of each!) so I am consistently surrounded by fellow animal lovers and caregivers who have taught me everything I know. I have cared for and looked after friend's and family's dogs and cats from as young 6 weeks all the way up to 19 years old! I'm experienced with senior cats and dogs especially. I am a freelance opera singer who works from home remotely (and can work anywhere if needed) so I am able to drop-in, walk, or pet sit pretty much any time or any day of the week with ample notice. I will be caring for your pet in their own environment so they feel secure and relaxed and can keep calm while you're away. I will also follow your established routine for your pet such as feeding, walking, playtime, as well as light grooming and medicine administering if needed. If house sitting, I am willing and able to do things like watering plants, collecting mail, and other light household duties to keep you and your pet's home running as smooth as possible. This goes without saying but cleanliness and orderliness are a priority and I will leave your home as clean as I found it after each visit/homestay. I will happily provide detailed and frequent updates on your pets with photos and videos so you feel peace of mind while you are away. Open and clear communication is key to yours and your pets' well-being :) Not all pets are created equal and I am committed to providing personalized, attentive, and professional care ensures your sweet babies are happy, healthy, and well-cared under my watch.

“Stacey was excellent, timely in coming over to look after Penny and in providing me with updates and photos. Was flexible and went above and beyond taking care of her. And a really cool person on top of that! Would definitely recommend her.”
About: UT alum who recently moved back to Austin after spending a year in Washington state! I’ve had dogs since I was 9, so as soon as I graduated college and could finally get one of my own, I did. Hurricane Harvey had caused local shelters to overflow, and that’s when I adopted Winston. After 10 amazing years together, I unfortunately had to say goodbye. I’m definitely missing having a dog of my own around, so I’d love the distraction (and extra dog time!) of caring for yours. My boyfriend and I both work from home, and he has a 12-lb long-haired mini dachshund named Hanz. Like most small dogs, Hanz is fully convinced he’s about 75 lbs and runs the house accordingly. I’ve been around dogs of all sizes and personalities my whole life and would love to give your pup plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and love while you’re away! I work from home, so I am very flexible. I go to the gym daily, but overall I’m a homebody so I won’t be gone for long. Since my boyfriend and I both work from home, someone is almost always around to keep your pup company! I’m happy to stick as closely as possible to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate time, and any other preferences you have. In our home, we have Hanz, a 12-lb mini dachshund, so I always make sure any introductions are done carefully and everyone is comfortable. I’m also happy to separate dogs when needed, especially during meals or when we’re out of the house.
About: Austinite-I have had many animals as my children were growing up. Now i miss the connection and have the time to meet and care for your animals. Wanting to grow my sitting experience I work monday thru friday but I have plenty of time to be with your animal in the morning and afternoon and anytime on the weekends. I take the utmost pride in connecting with animal, i like to give them affection and care that they need. I am very clean and responsible with these precious creatures.
“Jorden was brilliant! This was her first visit, and I will be booking her for many more housesits and dog walks! She has a lot of experience with dogs, and my dog was instantly comfortable and at ease with her. Thank you Jorden!”
About: Hi y’all! I’m a dog mom of 2 (Bleu, a silver lab and Bronco, a Welsh Terrier) and have always had a passion for animals. 😊 I am notorious for always saying hi to four-legged friends — whether we’re walking on the trail, sharing an outdoor patio or driving past each other on the road. I love getting to know all of the different personalities (our two boys couldn’t be more opposite!) and hope to do the same with your pups. 🐶 I’m a firm believer in smelling all the smells and getting a good workout in during walks. You can count on me for a fun, energizing, safe walk during the day. 🤍 I am currently offering morning and afternoon walks Monday-Friday in the Lakeway, Bee Cave and Spicewood area. ☀️ New to the Rover community but excited to create relationships with you and your pup! I will carry extra doggy bags, wipes and treats in my walking backpack should we need anything during our time outside. If needed, I will spend some time letting your pup get to know me before we head out for our walk so everyone feels comfortable! 😊
About: All throughout my childhood and teen years I have babysat cat, dogs, or any animal I could. I have two dogs and a cat, i’ve had one of my pups for 6 years and the other for 3 years and i’ve had my cat for 7 years. i can put 110% into what i do and ill love your pets like they’re my own! i can take care of your pets whenever! I have nothing to do during the day besides the weekends. I’m free from monday-friday to take the best care of your pets. In my home i feed my dogs 3 times a day i play with them all the time and if needed i will cut their nails or bathe them and same thing in a clients home with permission. i can walk them, give them treats, bathe them, clip their nails, brush them even.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and I also learned how to care for them at a young age. I’m very patient with animals and I also learned how to train my own dogs. In the beginning, it was harder to potty train them but I learned a lot of patience with them. It’s important to give animals your attention especially when they’re learning to do something new. I am looking for other part time jobs but at this moment my main focus is with Rover. I’m available almost any day and time you might need me. I’m currently renting at a home and there is no fence but I can definitely take the fur babies out for walks frequently. It’s no problem having them inside and I’m very respectful when going to other people’s homes as well.
“Carla is an amazing dog walker! She’s always on time and responsive. Our dog Ciara loves her morning walks with Carla, and comes back super tired every time. She also takes lovely pictures of Ciara for us to see”
About: I focus on creating a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel safe and understood. I pay close attention to each animal’s needs and routine, and I’m especially good with shy or low-energy pets who prefer a quieter presence. I’m not just here to check a box—I genuinely care about making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but when my schedule allows, I also offer care on weekdays. Weekends are when I’m most available, and I genuinely enjoy spending that time with animals. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep things comfortable and familiar. I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and well-cared for. Whether it’s walks, feedings, meds, or just quiet company, I treat every home—and every pet—with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: If I could live on a farm with a billion different animals I would. I can assure you that no harm will come to your furbabies while they remain in my care. I’m a big pet person and I enjoy being a rover sitter very much. If your pets are able we can always go on a car ride, visit a park or just grab a pup cup/ice cream. I’m very responsible and passionate when it comes to being a pet sitter….you will receive plenty of pictures and videos so you can see how their day is going. Looking forward to meeting your family!! Thank you for your consideration. PLEASE FOLLOW MY DOGSITTING INSTAGRAM PAGE OR SHARE WITH OTHER DOG OWNERS. Ig: TAYLORFURBABIES I have an 4 yearold that likes dogs so sometimes he gets to join me when I pet sit or when they come to our home. He loves being apart of feeding and walking the pets…I love it! I currently do Rover full time. I provide a lot of attention and care as needed. If they have a schedule I stick to it and I just try to make the pet feel comfortable or at home.
About: I have owned and cared dogs since I was a child. That love for fur babies followed me into adulthood. Professionally, I have been a dog groomer for over ten (10) years in both a commercial and private setting. I not only love working with dogs, but am also a dog mom. I have two pups at home that include a rescue and an elderly doggo. My children and I regularly volunteer at local rescues. Currently, I work remotely from home during the day with flexibility to modify or structure my schedule as needed. I work with pet clients daily and do my best to be accommodating. Communication is key to ensuring safety and trust. All activities and routes are pre planned and shared with you prior to my arrival. Pictures of your baby are included for all services. If feeding, administering meds, grooming, etc. are added, time and details of each activity are documented for the parent to review. You should always know what is going on with your pet. I am certified in pet first aid and can recognize and provide first aid for the most emergencies your pet may experience.
About: I’ve babysat and taken care of a blue heeler for the past few summers, but the kid is old enough now to take care of himself and his dog! I have a 10 yr old maltipoo who has a few medical conditions, so I’m great with giving medication along with food. I love to walk and try to walk at least 8 miles everyday, so I’d love to walk your dog! I currently don’t have a job, so I’m really available any time of the day. I’d be more than happy to stay for however long you’d like and play with them! Since my dog is little, I usually carry her outside just because of other animals that are sometimes out because she likes to chase them (foxes, deer, vultures). When I walk her, I’m very aware of cars passing by or other large dogs that might scare her.
“Hunter is punctual. He made friends with Almond quickly. He took her on a good walk. He is willing to learn the skills Almond has learned from her trainer. He is helpful. I highly recommend Hunter.”
About: I take a truly customized, tailored approach to caring for each and every dog that joins our pack. I believe no two pups are alike! Each one comes with their own unique personality, energy level, history, preferences, and specific needs—and I’m deeply committed to honoring that individuality every single day. Whether your dog is a high-energy zoomer who thrives on constant play and group adventures, a gentle soul who prefers quiet one-on-one time and cozy naps, a senior needing extra joint support and softer bedding, a shy rescue building confidence step by step, or a little one who requires more frequent potty breaks and close supervision, I tailor their entire experience accordingly. Nothing is one-size-fits-all here. I lovingly adjust every pup's day to suit exactly what they need so they feel completely at ease, relaxed, and happy. Whether that means giving them a gentle introduction to playtime, offering a peaceful spot to unwind when they want some quiet, or simply letting them set the pace with their favorite activities, the focus is always on helping your pup thrive in their own comfortable way. I watch and listen closely to each one's signals and preferences, making small, kind adjustments so everyone around feels safe, included, and joyful. The result is a harmonious group where quirky, shy, energetic, or laid-back pups all get to enjoy their time together—playing when they're ready, resting when they need it, and heading home with that contented, tail-wagging glow. After years as a dedicated realtor with Compass in the Bay Area, I built a thriving side business in Marin County, CA, providing loving dog walking, daycare, and boarding services. I had the joy of caring for a wonderful pack of dogs, and it quickly became clear that this was my true calling—nothing brings me more happiness than seeing tails wag and pups thrive. When my husband and I decided to start a fresh chapter, we relocated to the beautiful Austin area and chose to focus fully on what I love most: exceptional doggy care. We recently settled on a spacious half-acre property in Hudson Bend (just northwest of Austin, near the stunning Lake Travis), and the dogs absolutely adore it here! I will treat your dog like my own! I have a fully fenced in lawn and back yard space where your pup can go potty, run, socialize and play.

“Absolutely adore Alex!! She took such incredible care of our dog, and it is so clear that she genuinely loves animals. Alex instantly connected with our dog which helped our pup feel right at home.

She went above and beyond to make sure Maple was happy, healthy, comfortable, and loved. I would absolutely book with Kerrigan again!”

“Maegan and her daughter were fabulous! I was worried my dog might be a lot to handle. Maegan assured me she was familiar with the breed I have. Updates and pictures were sent. I could see my dog was attaching herself to Maegan’s daughter. And I knew she was getting a lot of attention. It was great!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Erica on Rover! She took wonderful care of our dog, Prince, while we were away. From the beginning, communication was prompt and professional, and they made the whole process very easy. During the stay we received updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Prince seemed comfortable and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they watch. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and reliable pet sitter.”

Overall we are very happy with experience and would definitely use Brianna’s services again!”
