Highly-rated overnight sitters - Manchaca
“The backyard gave Tucker lots of high quality play time and Desmond & Robyn were fantastic at sending me pictures of Tucker intermittently throughout the day. Next time I am in need of a sitter, Desmond & Robyn will definitely be my first choice. Highly recommend!”

“Gail’s home is ideal for a home away from home. There is a big backyard and a doggy door that allows for in and out access. Gail treated my dog like hers, she is very accommodating, detail oriented, organized, flexible, and kind. I would highly recommend.”

“I think this was Abby's 5th time with Savannah and Gabriel. They are great with her. Abby is a handful as she is only 8 months old and still doing typical puppy things. I like that S and G meet me outside their apt building, so I just hand Abby over to them. They take up her bag of food and toys, and her crate and framed puppy pad, so I can be on my way. Same when I come to pick Abby up. They have one dog, also a shih tzu. I like that they do have a playmate for Abby and also that they just have one dog and she's a small one like Abby. As I've said before, their apartment is immaculate and very nice and so is their dog. So I know that Abby won't be finding stuff on their floor to chew up and swallow. (She's still in that phase.) They also have pee pads, a playpen, nice beds, etc. S and G always keep me informed with photos while I'm away. I'm so glad I found them.”

“Rachel was so comfortable and nurturing with my pup. She knows a lot about dogs and knew what to do with my little guy. He was well cared for there and got lots of snuggles. I felt comfortable leaving him there in her hands. She was great to work with.”

“Our toothless dog Coco loved Michelle! Michelle communicated with both my wife and I, which made her so happy. She made so many accommodations and was extremely patient with us since our dog is kind of high-need and just came out of a surgery. I don’t feel like Michelle is charging enough for what she did for us watching our Coco.”

“It was so reassuring to know that our dog was with patches and her little pack while we were on our trip! We got lots of reassuring updates, and we could tell that she stayed calm and had great access to a lovely grassy yard. We are all very appreciative and look forward to our next visit!”

“Olivia took great care of my dog while I was out of town! She was very communicative and sent me plenty of photos to keep me updated about my pup. I would definitely recommend her for your dog boarding needs.”

“Aine and Jared are my go-to sitters here in Austin. Their attention to detail and communication is unmatched. Stella loves spending time at their house and playing with Fionn!”

“Maura and Shawn took amazing care of our girl! They have an awesome yard and made sure she had plenty of activity. They also sent lots of updates / super cute photos. We were so comfortable knowing she was in great hands - it looked like she had a very fun filled weekend with them. We will definitely book again.”

“She was amazing with my fur babies! Definitely felt like I was dropping them off at my family’s home! She was amazing I felt comfortable in knowing my babies were being well cared for. 100 stars all the way !”

“River had a great stay. He’s a high-energy chocolate lab, and they handled him really well. We got consistent updates and photos without having to ask, which I appreciated. He looked comfortable the whole time and got plenty of playtime and walks. Communication was easy and they were flexible with timing and his collar setup. Everything felt really smooth. Already booked with them again.”

“Alice and her wonderful family provided such a warm and caring environment for James. Alice consistently shared numerous adorable photos and updates, allowing us to feel connected and assured during our time apart. With a spacious backyard for the dogs to run around and play fetch, we discovered an option where our dog not only receives excellent care but also experiences a true sense of home — truly priceless. We're incredibly grateful for the loving attention and genuine hospitality that Alice and her family gave to James. We will book with Alice again and highly recommend her.”

“This is our second time with Peyton, and this time she took on both of our dogs! I appreciate the updates and the concern that she shows while our dogs are in her care. Well definitely book with Peyton again!”

“Lexi really enjoyed being there and I have nothing but good things to say about these two. I appreciate them coming through for me and keeping lexi happy in my absence!”

“AAA+..Highly recommend if you want your furry pal watched by someone truely caring, attenative and most importantly trustworthy. Sarah accommodated my boy Bleu and I's needs (last minute booking), sent me pics and updates throughout the trip and my pup came back happier than ever. Would definitely go with Sarah again!”

“Brian was an incredible sitter to Winnie when I was out of the country for two weeks. He provided consistent updates and I could tell that Winnie was having a great time. It’s hard to find sitters you can trust but Brian is one of those sitters. I Would 100% recommend Brian to anyone and I look forward time having Winnie stay with him again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Manchaca
“Abigail was an excellent cat and plant sitter! She made sure the water, food, and litter were all taken care of for my 2 cats. She also made sure my outdoor patio plants stayed alive during our 2 week vacation!”

“Doray did a fantastic job caring for our cats and rats while we were out of town for three weeks. She was incredibly responsible and communicative, always providing thoughtful updates and plenty of feedback, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond by taking care of extra tasks like bringing in packages and taking out the trash. Our rats especially loved the extra attention she gave them, and she even refreshed their bedding multiple times. It was clear that she treated our pets with the same love and care we give them ourselves. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Rebekah did a great job with 30 min drop in visits for my cat! She even picked up some unexpected cat vomit which I greatly appreciate. Her visit notes were very detailed & helped me feel confident that my cat was taken good care of :)”


“Where do I even begin!? Gabrielle was the best decision I made for the trip that I just took. She not only was ALWAYS on time, but extraordinarily detailed when it came to providing updates about my kitty. She is incredibly responsive and followed directions to the Tee. Also she is just the nicest person to work with. My cat, who can normally be aloof, became very affectionate towards her so that tells me she was nothing shy of amazing with him. I 100000% recommend her and I will be hiring her again in the future.”

“Trinity was so great with our kitties! She cared for our 2 cats, one having heart failure, needing pills administered twice a day. We were nervous about that and although he was a tricky one to give pills to, Trinity was reassuring and ensured he got his medication every single time with a lot of patience to trying out different methods. Her communication was exceptional and we appreciated the recaps of how our boys were doing while we were away and spent more time playing with our cats when she noticed their energy levels shift. Overall, she is a very caring a careful sitter 🐈⬛🐈⬛”

“Julia was the perfect sitter for our cats. She was very thorough in going over what we needed for them and checked in with us each day, sending us multiple pictures and videos and gave us a little report each time. She genuinely seems to love animals too which made us feel extra secure!”

“Jean is kind and clearly cares about our cats! She is communicative and lets us know if anything is amiss (we had a door lock issue and she was able to get back to the kitties later). We appreciate her!”

“I had a bad experience with a different booking on Rover, and Olivia brought my faith back in this process. She was very flexible when I had to change times, extremely punctual with her visits, and the communication was always there. I will be booking her for future travel plans. A+++!”


“Lauren was an outstanding pet sitter for our cat. She consistently delivered on all the essentials we asked and showed incredible patience even when our cat would get a spicy. During the busy holiday season, she never bailed on us or our cat, followed every instruction carefully, and maintained a genuinely positive, caring attitude the entire time. I would absolutely recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”

“Taylor was so wonderful with our cat! The pictures showed she was obviously well cared for and loved on. Taylor was very responsive and on time. We will definitely be booking with her again soon!”

“Whit took such great care of our cat, Purrky! He showered him with so much love, attention, playtime, and treats, and carefully followed all the instructions we left. Whit also kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos from every visit, which we really appreciated. It honestly gave us so much peace of mind knowing Purrky was in such good hands. Highly recommend Whit as a caring and trustworthy pet sitter! ✅”

“Page was excellent! She came to meet the cats and I before sitting them and it was super helpful to me. She was reliable & I can tell she loves and cares animals very much! I would definitely recommend working w Page!”


“Harper took excellent care of my cat when I was away! She communicated regularly, was super kind and quick to respond. I felt confident about Midge's safety and well-being when she was with Harper after a long search to find a good sitter.”

About: I am very patient and understanding with dogs and cats and always have a soft spot for animals. I have experience working with older dogs and medication they might need. I am working around a few different aspects such as college schooling, some social gatherings with friends, and overall business. Many weekends I am free and some weekdays I am also free. I do not own any pets but I did watch my friend’s family dogs for many years. I have had a dog and a cat in the past.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Manchaca
“Savannah and Gabriel are great with my puppy Peaches!! They are attentive to her needs and provide me with photos/updates during the day. She also comes home tired after playing with their doggie!! They’re the best!!”


“Absolutely recommend Daniel, My pet absolutely loves spending time with him and gets so excited every time he sees him. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about dog behavior and care, which gives me total peace of mind whenever I’m away. He is professional and very reliable. He also keeps me posted by sharing photos and videos!”

“Highly recommend! My dog has dementia which means he's constantly having his brains turn more and more into mash potatoes. Patches was able to provide exceptional care with all his special needs and I never worried about him bc he was in such good hands! 😻 Meow!”


“Emma was the perfect host! My dogs were well taken of through out their visit. Emma was very flexible with the timing and worked to accommodate our needs! My girls loved their walks and everything was first class! Emma is my Austin connection! Thanks, Emma! Lucy Lou and Lilly Bug Love you!💕🐶🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

About: Although new to official pet sitting, I’ve owned and taken care of dogs most of my adult life. I’m a retired yoga teacher with a very playful 9 month old Frenchton. I have lots of time and patience to take care of your pooch. I’m retired so I control my own schedule. I’m available 2-3 days a week. We are pet parents to a lovable Frenchton pup, so it will be important to communicate to make sure our furries are compatible. I have a large fenced in yard with a dog door and a wide open floor plan for the dogs to play inside. I will only ever take on one pet at a time so the only compatibility issues will revolve around matching up with our goofy 9 month old Frenchton.
“Rachel and Justin are nothing short of phenomenal! Leaving my puppy Queenie in their care was the best decision I made. They treated her like a member of their own family, going above and beyond to ensure she was happy and well-cared for. Their flexibility and warm welcome immediately eased any nerves I had about leaving her with strangers. Queenie not only loved spending time with them but also adored their fur children and their son. I couldn’t be happier with the love and attention they provided. I’ll definitely be choosing Rachel and Justin again in the future for their exceptional care and genuine love for dogs!”

“Nestor is one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. Gomez had a great time hanging out with Nedtor and Boogie. I knew Gomez was in good hands because when I went to drop him off everyday he was wagging his tail and happy to start the day! Thank you Nestor”
“Heather was an absolute gem with our high-energy golden retriever, Luca! She handled his energy perfectly and kept us in the loop with frequent video updates that showed just how happy and settled he was. We especially appreciated how she accommodated our request to keep him off the furniture. We'd book Heather again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

“Frances was fantastic! She kept us in the loop about how our beloved puppy was doing all day while in daycare. We appreciate the amount of activity she initiated, and the fact that her dogs made great friends to help calm our dog. Would definitely recommend!”

“Tayler was so amazing with my pup! She was super communicative, sent lots of updates, and I could tell my dog was loved on like one of her own! My dog had an absolute blast and I could tell really liked and trusted Tayler after just one day there. Will be back!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets truly brings me joy. My best buddy is Tugboat, an 8-year-old Australian Shepherd who’s full of love for other dogs (but not so much for cats, unfortunately!). I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime in the yard or relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away I work from home and I am only ever gone for a few hours at a time if any. I already walk my dog everyday so your pup would fit right into our routine I have a fenced in backyard and neighborhood trails. I have crates that I would use if I do have to leave the dogs for a short period
“Thorough, accommodating and a good instinct for animals, Nanda was great for keeping our two heeler mixes company with her while we worked over three long days. Great with both our puppy and seven-year-old, she's a relief to have as an option to watch the dogs.”

“Super friendly ! I can tell how much they loved my sweet boy, I was honestly so nervous about leaving him. But Fernando and his wife were so kind and reassuring, even Ballas seemed to love them. :) Absolutely will be considering them again if I need another day care day!”

“Mike is amazing! He’s great at communication - I get updates all day long on the dogs and he also takes them on a ton of walks during the day. I can tell he really loves the dogs and my dogs run to his house from the car every time we arrive. Mike is also super accommodating to my work schedule and other things going on in my personal life - highly recommend!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have always loved them. We always had dogs growing up, but I never had my very own until I adopted Frankie just over three years ago and he has completely magnified my love for dogs! We moved to Austin in October of 2017, and I am just now reactivating my account here. We had over 40 different guests while we lived in Seattle, most of which became repeat visitors. We've had dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds and energy levels stay with us. We have yet to meet a dog that Frankie does not get along with. We have loved every one of our Rover guests, and we can't wait to meet more here in Austin! My schedule is very flexible, as I only work away from home in the afternoons, so your dog will have a lot of human (and dog) interaction. This also makes drop off and pick up times pretty flexible.
About: My wife and I have been dog sitting for multiple friends over the years and as Rover sitters since August 2020! We both love meeting new furry friends (and their owners) - we have 2 small dogs of our own. We do prefer to sit dogs with low to medium energy levels (to accommodate our elderly dog) and 2 years or older, but we can definitely make exceptions on age and energy level with a Meet & Greet. I work from home, so I’m readily available to keep your pet companion company while you’re away on vacation, business or if your grumpy mother-in-law who doesn’t like dogs is in town. Our home has a wide open floor plan with plenty of room to accommodate the even rowdy (but well mannered), playful ones, and has a very secure backyard. Happy to take your loved one on walks (except during afternoons in summer), on outings to the park and make any other accommodations to make their stay as comfortable and stress free as possible while they’re separated from their 'hooman'.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Manchaca
“Gabriel was professional, on time, and amazing with my two dogs. We’ve hired dog walkers before in the past and they wouldn’t go the distance with our dogs (.25 in 30 mins). Gabriel covered a lot of ground and my dogs received the exercise they need for being two bigger dogs. I will absolutely reach out to him when we need a dog walker again or boarding. Thank you!”

About: My wife and I have been pet sitting for 8 years, and are looking forward to meeting new furry friends. We have 1 dog and our 2 kids that have grown up with tons of guest dogs and love to play with them. We allow dogs on our furniture and treat them like family. We have experience administering medications and have hosted several dogs young and old. One of us is home every day so the dogs get lots of attention and outside time. We are very flexible with drop-off and pickup times. We offer in-home dog boarding in our home in South Austin. We have a nice sized yard with 6ft fences around. Our 2 kids who have grown up with dogs are very sweet with them and love to cuddle and play. The dogs are allowed on the furniture and can sleep wherever they are comfortable. We always separate the dogs during feeding time.

“Riley is our hero! He has cared for Fenway, our English Sheepdog, on several occasions. Most recently, overnight boarding for five days. Riley is attentive and caring and provides a safe family environment for Fenway. He is a great communicator and gave daily updates about Fenway's activity, eating, sleeping and overall happiness. Riley goes above and beyond! We are so grateful to Riley and his family for welcoming Fenway into their home,”

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

About: I give dogs a calm & predictable experience. I adjust to different personalities and energy levels, whether that’s a relaxed senior dog or a more playful, active pup. I can help with walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, and I’m flexible when my schedule allows (including last-minute requests!). I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep each dog’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable :) **Note: potty-trained is a requirement for care in my home - thanks! My schedule is flexible, so I can help with walks and drop-ins during the week, as well as daycare and boarding. I follow your dog’s routine, whether it’s a quick visit/walk or a longer stay at my house. Aside from the occasional errand or outing, I'm home most of the day (weekdays and weekends) and spend a lot of time with the dogs in my care. My dog, Emory, is very easygoing and gets along well with both calm and playful dogs. Dogs have access to a fenced yard and doggie door, and I'm available to provide potty breaks as often as needed for dogs who can't use it. They're also welcome to get on the furniture! For walks and drop-ins, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own and make sure everything is secure when I leave. I provide regular updates and follow your dog's routine and any specific instructions to help you and your dogs feel comfortable while you're away.
“Great took very good care of my senior dog. He gave a little extra love and care when she needed it. He is professional and is responsive. I highly recommend him. He was a terrific Dog Walker and will use him again.”

“Professional and kind. Took amazing care of my senior dog while I was away. It was a last minute booking and she accommodated my request. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care for pets of all kinds! I have 6 years of experience working in a veterinary office, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, medication administration, and recognizing signs that a pet may need extra attention. This experience has helped me become comfortable caring for pets with a variety of needs and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur-babies. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so I know firsthand the patience, attention, and love that animals deserve every day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or specialized care, I will treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide peace of mind while you're away and ensure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my hands, so be on the look out for daily pictures and updates. :) I currently work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. Because I’m not commuting to an office, I’m able to maintain your pet’s normal routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship, and ensure they aren’t left alone for long periods of time. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I will provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and any medications or special care they may need. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, interactive play, cuddle time, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, tidy, and secure throughout my stay. I'll clean up after your pets, maintain their feeding and living areas, and leave your home in the same condition, or better, than I found it. You can feel confident knowing that both your pets and your home will be cared for with professionalism, attention, and respect while you're away.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, from 6lb lap dogs to 130lb gentle giants, so I’m completely comfortable with any size or breed. I know that big dogs and small dogs have very different needs, and I adjust my care accordingly. Friends and family have always trusted me with their pets because they know their dogs are in good hands. I make sure all fur babies are well-fed, exercised, and genuinely loved while their parents are away. I work a flexible schedule, so pets in my care always have someone around. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. Dogs won’t be left alone for long stretches. Walks, playtime, and attention are built into every day! I treat every pet like they’re my own. I keep my space clean, secure, and pet-friendly. I’ll follow your routines, feeding schedules, crate preferences, medications, whatever your dog needs to feel comfortable in my home or yours. I stay in regular contact with updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing!

About: I've always loved animals. From the time I was able to convince my parents to let me get a pet, I've been caring for dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, chickens, amphibians, and fish. And because that wasn't enough, I found every opportunity I could to be around more animals, from taking riding lessons to doing 4H to petsitting for friends and family to being an AKC junior handler to volunteering at animal rescues. As I've grown up my love for animals has only grown too! Now, I am a full-time freelancer with plenty of flexibility to come show your pets some of that love. I have experience administering medication and working with animals of all ages and care needs. I am a full-time freelancer so my schedule is very flexible! I have availability in the mornings, evenings, mid-day, on weekdays AND weekends, and even on some holidays. I currently offer services in my clients' homes. In addition to my petsitting experience, I have many years of housesitting experience and will make sure everything is taken care of while you are away!
About: Have been a fur mom since I was a child! I Volunteered at PVAC/ bf volunteered at Austin pets alive. We have a Great Dane (lexi), she’s a total sweetheart and is very friendly with other dogs. we have a lot of free time on weekends and would love for lexi to have friends. We love the outdoors and live close to a park so it’s perfect for the dogs. We’re also home bodies in case the outdoors doesn’t work for you or your fur baby.

About: My love for animals consumes a great part of my heart! My pet services are intentional and kind, as I seek to adhere to your personal care taking expectations and show up with a gentleness and genuine desire to treat your fur-child as if it's my own. I am self-employed from my home which allows me to maintain pet care easily throughout the week. I purposefully never take on excessive pets so that yours gets the attention it needs. I value integrity in my work that both you and your pet will experience. I'm self-employed and easily care for animals from the comfort of my home. I have much flexibility in my job to accommodate for walks, outdoor breaks, or stopping by your home. My home has a gated outside area if your pet needs bathroom breaks and fresh air regularly. I do have two small Scottish terriers of my own who get along great with other dogs and welcome an extra dog into their spaces. I live in a neighborhood with shaded areas for daily walks and I am about 2 minutes away from a gated dog park for extra exploration and exercise if that's needed. Your caretaking routine and expectations for safety are my top priority in caring for your fur-baby. As a dog owner myself, I know what it's like to need to be assured your babies are in good hands and are getting the attention and love they need.

“Elizabeth was wonderful with Willow while I was away. She gave her great care and attention, and it made me so happy knowing Willow got her social fix playing with other dogs. I had total peace of mind the whole time, and came home to a very happy, content pup.”


“Bridget, who is normally very nervous with new people /places warmed up allison and her kiddos very quickly. Consistent communication with me and Bridget came home a very happy pupper.”

“Lacy was an incredible Rover experience! I left my two cherished puppies with her for six days over the Fourth of July holiday, which included a lot of rain and not ideal conditions to take care of a dog. Lacey was very communicative, took very special care of my dogs, and clearly cares a lot about giving them a great experience and keeping them happy and healthy. We look forward to using her services again!”

“Brian was an incredible sitter to Winnie when I was out of the country for two weeks. He provided consistent updates and I could tell that Winnie was having a great time. It’s hard to find sitters you can trust but Brian is one of those sitters. I Would 100% recommend Brian to anyone and I look forward time having Winnie stay with him again.”

“Jordan, his pups, his family, and his home are absolutely divine. My dogs definitely enjoyed their stay. &I am beyond grateful. Through flight cancellations and delays, Jordan was very flexible and communicated effectively. Thank you again!”
