Personalized care for your dog or cat - Thrall
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Thrall
“Radha and Bart are absolutely the BEST. Rooney was so happy staying there and playing with their super chill big boy Snowy for the entire week. They provided us so many updates with photos and videos. We didn’t have to worry about him at all. Radha and Bart treated him like their own pup. They took him on walks multiple times during the day and gave him the sniffing time which our beagle loves. If you want your fur baby to be loved and get that feeling of home away home, go with Radha and Bart :)”
“I’m so happy to have found amber. I would recommend 100% she’s very nice, caring and thoughtful. She made me feel at ease knowing that that my pets were in good hands and that they were safe. I will definitely keep amber as my pets sitter.”
“Andrew was amazing with our old guy! Griffey can sometimes be a grumpy old man and Andrew was SO kind, patient and understanding. Griffey was so well taken care of and we got lots of updates.”
“Had a last minute booking with Carmen since something came up & she was very kind to let us book with her on such short notice. She was very happy with open arms willing to watch our little girl. We keep booking with her because she treats Dolly like her own & is amazing with communication. We have had no issues & she’s become like a 3rd grandmother to Dolly. I can go on & on about Carmen & how amazing she is. Highly recommend booking with her.”
“Our dog has separation issues & is often a little picky about his friends, but he settled down with Rodnie & her pups nicely for the weekend. Rodnie allowed him to feel at home...... sleeping on her sofa!! She sent us an update so we were ensured all was well. We have already booked him again with Rodnie for his next stay!”
“She kept in contact with me the entire time as well as sent photos. She was very responsive (and quick with them), her home was clean and inviting, and her times were super flexible. She also gave us a sweet gift when our stay was over, she really cares about the babies she’s watching. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“One thousand percent would recommend!! They clearly spent time and care ensuring our dogs were 100% comfortable and cared for, and they gave us consistent updates on how they were doing the entire week we were gone. Absolutely will rebook in the future!”
“Absolutely loved working with Chad! He was really patient and took such special care of my sweet boy. I got tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really helped ease my mind. I also appreciated getting to do a meet and greet beforehand so I could see where my dog would be staying. It made a huge difference. I’d definitely recommend Chad if your dog has separation anxiety or doesn’t do well in crates. He doesn’t take on too many overnighters at once, so I knew my dog wouldn’t just be a number. Great experience all around!”
“Mina & Antony were very attentive to our pups! They took them both on regular walks and kept us very up to date with their days! We would definitely book with them again in the future :)”
“Kimberly was wonderful! This was my first time leaving my dogs in the care of anyone other than a family member, so I was pretty nervous at first. Kimberly gave me frequent updates, lots of pictures, and I could really tell that my pups were being loved and well cared for. Thank you so much!”
“Mark is very kind and Ollie was spoiled at his house while we were away. His communication is the best, too! I’m thankful to have found someone trustworthy to take care of our boy.”
“Bekah and family have always been amazing and we feel very relaxed after dropping our dog Pixie at their place. Our dog also gets pampered a lot and we would highly recommend her for dog sitting.”
“Zora took amazing care of our dog Kona. She provided lots of pictures, videos and updates and we knew he was in good hands. He got along well with her dog, Zara, too. Would definitely rebook!”
“Mary has a great set-up with large, fenced yard. My dog Nova can get separation anxiety, but she was a happy pup when I picked her up after a week of boarding - this tells me her needs were met and she felt comfortable. Great service and daily pics!”
“Jessica and her husband were awesome! Pepper made herself at home and they were nothing but loving towards her. They sent pictures throughout the weekend and even took her for a run in the park. Highly recommend”
“Elisa and her family is simply awesome to our Bella. She loves playing with the kids and going on adventures with them... she comes back happy and relaxed. We will always use Elisa as our #1 choice :)”
“Natalee is great. She took care of my dogs on short notice and treated them like her own. I appreciated the updates from her and how responsive she is concerning individual dog care institutions. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”

“Jordan went above and beyond to make our cats and parrots comfortable. It was such a relief to know someone was looking in on them and giving them some attention while we were gone!”
“Kellie was absolutely phenomenal. The moment Kellie came over to meet my pets, a good two weeks before my travel, I knew my fur babies would be in trustworthy, caring and knowledgeable hands. Kellie made sure she understood the needs of both my animals and understood what was needed to make sure they felt safe and loved in my absence. Kelli checked in with me multiples times a day, letting me know what was going on. She also went above and beyond what was required of her, from making sure my garbage cans were on the curb for pick-up day to watering my plants. If you are on the fence with using Rover to care for your pets while you are traveling or at work, I get it. I was too, but rest assured that will Kellie your cherished fur babies are safe and taken care of, and your home is not at risk.”
About: I've had dogs my entire life. I have cared for them, trained them, and loved every single one. I take care of animals as if they are my own even if they belong to someone else. I enjoy animals whether cats or dogs. With me, you'll know I'm there. I take pics letting you know I came and the time. I make sure to spend time playing with them or petting them if not interested in playing. They don't call me a dog whisperer for nothing. Animals can sense the type of people they are around. I let them know they can trust me. I am currently working for Uber Eats so my schedule is flexible. I am available most any time day or night. Animals are my priority. I live in the country on 7 fenced acres. We have other pets on our property. Therefore, I primarily go to people's homes to provide care.
About: I have cared for many different kinds of cat and I’ve loved every one of them. I’m writing this with a grumpy cat snuggled up on my lap. I’m happy to arrange overnight sits without my dog (he can have a play date at a friend’s house) if your pets are not fans of dogs.
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
“This is the third time booking with Mell. She has been wonderful. She communicates and keeps you updated on your furry ones. She even put a large package inside our home. Mell remembers how to care for and accommodate your babies.”
“I appreciate the help I have received since July 2025 with the drop ins for my fur babies to go potty. With out Tinisha's acceptance I would not have been able to start my new job. Lots of hugs and thank you!”
“Victoria did an amazing job taking care of our cat! She was very good at communicating about what was going on and took so many pictures for us. She also left really funny notes about what was happening while we were gone.”
About: I have enjoyed my life around numerous animals of all backgrounds. Growing up in the north granted me the privilege of owning huskies and training them for years! Stubbornness is no problem with me. I have experience with working through territorial aggression and severe medical needs. I have been through obedience training with all of my dogs. I love being around cats as well and have owned cats my entire life! I am available any day, anytime! No morning is too early for a check in or walk and no night is too late. Your pet’s schedule is my schedule! I respect security and privacy! The care of another persons home is sacred and I would only want someone else respecting my space as well. Let me know if you have any concerns about the environment your pet will be in!
“Cheyenne was amazing with my three quirky cats and was able to meet their needs and on such short notice. I was very pleased that they had a great experience. Thank you so much.”
“Lillian was fantastic! She was an excellent fit for us, and extremely flexible! She took care of our pets like they were her own. We will definitely use her again! Too bad we can’t give her 10 stars!!!”
“Despite Monet watching our cat over the holidays and not being around as much as we had hoped, she took good care of our boy. Our cat needs attention 24/7 and when she was there, we knew he was looked after and given love, treats and attention. She did a great job updating us with pictures and videos and even got the best pictures of them snugging in bed every night!”

“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”
About: What could be better than a dog vacay at a real ranch? 2 ponds with bass and catfish to sniff out! Plenty of space to run and play with the other pups! There is a secure fence that surrounds the main house and another perimeter fence, that way the pups can only say hello to the cattle from a far. :) A special notice: there are cats and chickens on the property that roam around with the ranch dogs. Please keep this in mind as we love our chickens and cats as much as our dogs. I highly suggest a meet and greet for the newcomers before confirming a reservation at the ranch. The pups living the sweet life at the Sweet Ranch give it a unanimous "all paws up"!
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!

My work schedule allows me to be highly flexible and attentive to the pets in my care, ensuring they receive the attention and stimulation they need throughout the day.

In the evenings, I dedicate time to more focused activities, whether it’s a training session for puppies using positive reinforcement techniques or calming routine care for senior pets.

“Cheyenne is an excellent caregiver; our pet enjoyed staying with the sitter and socializing and playing with the other pets. Overall, Cheyenne is a competent and dependable caregiver.”
“Some of the best doggie sitters out there! Our older little Paco has had a wonderful experience staying with Radha and Bart. Very professional and super attentive! Lovely people who sincerely look after our dog, and send lots of pictures and updates, which we appreciate so much. Highly recommended!!”
About: Hello, I’m Brad! I cannot wait to spoil and pamper your dog. I am a small business owner who works 100% of the time from my home office. Additionally, my mother, who is retired, is home all day too. Dogs visiting my house will be treated as family members. Home full time, I will be able to provide your dog with the care and attention he deserves while staying with me. Take a look at my photos to check out my home and fully fenced-in yard to see where your dog would be spending his doggy vacation. My home, near Hutto Elementary and Middle Schools, is in a new, quiet neighborhood with plenty of walking trails nearby. My yard is spacious with new grass and a covered patio to provide both sunny and shaded play areas. The price listed is for a 24 hour stay for a dog weighing up to 44 lbs. It would be $35 for a dog weighing 45-94 lbs. Having undergone advanced screening, I have been met face-to-face and my home has been inspected. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)!
“Skia who doesn't like to stay away from us and with other humans and dogs in our absence, loves to hangout with Mark and she is super happy to be with him and his dog (like a second home). Mark takes great care of the dogs and even feeds them when he feels they are hungry without a second thought. Great experience sending our pup to Mark's place !”
“Amanda was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of Bentley and sent some awesome photos of Bentley!! He looked so happy and came home exhausted so I know he had an awesome time! Thank you so much for watching our pup while we were out! I recommend her and will definitely book again next time we are in the area!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for about 7 years now. years now. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets (cats, dogs, hedgehogs). I've been known to be an animal person and we normally get comfortable with each other very quickly. I promise you, I'll love them like they're my own! :) I work from home which means I am a great person to sit with them all day or take them out on walks around the neighborhood! :) If I’m coming to you, I do my very best to respect your baby’s space and preferences. As much as I want to jump in and give them all the lovins’, I will wait until they are comfortable with me so they're not afraid. If you’re coming to me, we live in a first floor apartment right by the dog park, so, we have easy access for potty time! We also have lots of space to set up beds/food/toys/etc. Dogs are allowed on the couch and, depending on size, we don't mind them in the bed. I do have a dog of my own. Her name is Cleo and she is a small poodle mix. We will also bring her to the meet and greet so that she can be familiar. She can be a little shy, but never mean. She warms up fairly quickly and she's great at making people and other doggos feel welcome and comfortable. In a past life, she was a mama so she is very loving and gentle with puppies.
About: I’ve had pets since I was child and absolutely love animals. My kids have developed the same passion. We love taking care of animals as a family and have a few rescues of our own. Tito is our chihuahua who loves other small dogs. Our cats, Binx and Lizzie are tolerant of dogs and are use to having them around. I’m a stay at home mom to three kids. Except for the occasional outing or trip to the grocery store, we are just about always home. We have a very large fenced in back yard, so your pup will have plenty of room to play. Feel free to reach out with any questions, and I hope that you consider us to care for your fur babies. ❤️ Pickup and drop off is by appointment only. You can make an appointment for between the hours of 8am-6pm. Your appointment window cannot be greater than one hour. If you miss your drop off window by more than 15 minutes, the booking will be cancelled, and no refund given. If you are more than 15 minutes late picking up, you will have to reschedule your pickup time, if that means your pet stays another night, then you will be charged for an additional night plus a $30 inconvenience fee. I understand that things happen, and will work with you when unexpected events arise, but I’ve had too many people not respecting my time. I thank you for understanding. (: I follow care instructions completely. I give each animal one on one attention throughout the day. I treat them like they’re one of my kids. My children are very respectful of animals and are never left unsupervised with them.
“Candi was amazing with my duo! She was very communicative and sweet! Very welcoming and my pups had a great time and were super exhausted after! Her property is amazing for pets! I definitely recommend and will book again with her!! Thanks Candi!”
“Jerica was awesome and let my pup be, which I appreciate! She’s not a super social dog and Jerica understood that and gave her the space she needed! She also gave me a brief summary of the day, which was great so I knew what to expect being back home with my pup. She also provided updates during the day!”
“I'm so happy we found Gloria. I have peace of mind knowing that Milo is being well taken care of. This was our second booking with her, and we'll definitely keep going back. Gloria is very sweet and caring, and Milo loves visiting. 🩷”
“I've used Amber for check in visits for my Rottweiler puppy, and now that he is fully vaccinated, I've also started doing daycare at her residence as well. Can't recommend her enough to always be on top of things when it comes to your fur-kid(s)!”
“We have a 5 month old Golden Retriever puppy who had never been around other people or dogs thanks to COVID. I had a last minute opportunity to get the vaccine but needed a place for the puppy. Sara was great and open to my unknown schedule since I had no idea how long I’d have to wait. Puppy had a good time. I’d definitely use Sara again.”

About: Hello! My name is Jordan and I've been passionate towards all animals my entire life and have experience with a variety of different species. I've worked as an animal care intern at a wildlife rehab and as a kennel technician where my primary duties were to work closely with veterinary staff to provide care for animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience plus a life long history with animals has allowed me to recognize each pet's individual personalities so that I may tailor my care to fit their exact needs. My goal is to treat your pets with respect and warmth in order to ensure their happiness while you’re away. I'm sensitive, flexible and empathetic to the individual needs of your pet so that their time apart from you is happy and stress free. I'm communicative and open so that you can rest assured knowing how much fun your pet is having under my care. As a pet parent of many different species myself, I understand the dedication and love you have for your pets and I understand the desire for an accountable, kind caregiver. I am also able to accommodate any special requests, such as if you would prefer your dog be crated during certain times, if your pet needs medications administered during the day and much more. Additionally, I have experience with invertebrates, reptiles, birds, small mammals, dogs and cats. I live on 20 acres of mowed and maintained land with a secure fence that will give your babies plenty of space to run around and explore. In addition, I provide a cozy, peaceful home environment where your pet is welcome to explore, settle in, and relax at their own pace. With plenty of comfortable spaces to lounge, play, and feel secure, I strive to create an stress-free atmosphere that helps every pet feel right at home during their stay. If I’m going to your home, I will be respectful and courteous to any rules and maintain the standard of care you treat your animals with. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for pets in a way that truly fits their individual needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can adjust feeding times, walks, play, and quiet moments based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. This flexibility means my care isn’t one-size-fits-all. If your pet needs more frequent bathroom breaks, extra exercise, or just a little reassurance and companionship, I’m able to respond right away instead of sticking to a strict timetable and I can easily monitor changes in behavior or health. My daily routine may be full, but it’s adaptable—and that makes all the difference in giving pets the individualized attention they deserve. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment where they can relax and follow a consistent routine. When caring for your pets at your home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel comfortable and secure. My hands-on experience working with many types of animals—different species, breeds, ages and temperaments—gives me the confidence to handle everything. Whether you need me to care for your scaly, feathered, or furry friends, my goal is always the same: to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.
About: I’ve always loved taking care of animals, my own and others, since I was very young. I am comfortable around all dogs- I’m happy to take care of puppies, as well as older pups, who need their own TLC. If you entrust me with the privilege of looking after your fur baby, I will love them as if they are my own! I am happy to make drop ins/potty breaks/walks with your pup as needed. I am mostly available weekdays from 7-5pm but if needed, we can work together to find a schedule that works for your fur baby, as I can be flexible. I can work according to your needs. When caring for an animal in your home or mine, I will always be extra careful with opening and closing doors, to make sure no dog becomes an escape artist! I can feed, bathe, give medication, etc, as needed. Any special instructions, I am more than happy to adapt and learn how best to take care of your animal. When I come to care for your animal, I devote my time to loving them.
About: I’ve been a big dog lover since I was practically born! I love all kinds of the dogs, the big, the small, the crazy, and the shy ones! I’m good with medicine and scheduled feeding sessions! I’ve taken care of dogs that have medical issues, such as seizures or joint issues. I can handle the hyper puppies and cuddle the lazy senior dogs❤️ I’m ready to treat your dog with love and patience! Hi! My name is Faith and i’m 20 years old. I work part time right now so i’m free to care for any animal during the day and night! I work at a horse ranch between 3-6 pm during the weekday, so I can be with your dog all day! I do have dogs of my own but they will always stay home! When house sitting or drop in visits, I will make sure everything is safe during visits or outside time! I’m good with crating dogs or doing whatever they need to feel safe around me

I enjoy animals whether cats or dogs. With me, you'll know I'm there. I take pics letting you know I came and the time. I make sure to spend time playing with them or petting them if not interested in playing. They don't call me a dog whisperer for nothing. Animals can sense the type of people they are around. I let them know they can trust me. I am currently working for Uber Eats so my schedule is flexible. I am available most any time day or night. Animals are my priority. I live in the country on 7 fenced acres. We have other pets on our property. Therefore, I primarily go to people's homes to provide care.
About: I’m new to the rover app but, I’m not new to taking care of fur babies! While growing up we always had pets. When I left for college I got a puppy because of how much I missed my pups at home. I potty trained him all on my own while also juggling being a student athlete. I want to help out the best I can, so put me to work:) I am a part time hitting coach in the evenings so, I will have plenty of time to help you with your fur babies. I am off every weekend. I can take your pets on walks or play fetch to get them moving. I also can sit and just love on your pups whenever you are at work or away for a bit.
“Brooke is amazing! She is so good with my pups. They are young and maybe a little wild, but Brooke is so patient with them. I have absolutely no worries when they are with her. I think they may enjoy walking with her even more than me! :) Brooke has been flexible and is very dependable. So glad we found her!”
About: -Experience with puppies (care & training) -Owner of a senior dog -Patient and kind to all animals no matter the breed, shape, or size -Experience with high energy breeds I am currently working full time throughout the week, so pet care works for me after 5pm. I will be available anytime throughout the weekend. I am familiar with safely and respectfully crating pets and have done so with my own dogs. I make sure the area is clean and comfortable especially if the pet will be left for long periods of time.
“My dog absolutely LOVED Kimmie from the very first meeting. And my pup can be somewhat reserved around new people so that told me all I needed to know about Kimmie’s ability to connect to pets. Kimmie is very professional, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have worked with small dogs and big dogs and nervous dogs- I have owned my own doggo (a shih tzu bichon mix for 10 years) since I rescued her from a poodle shelter. I have worked as an assistant training emotional support animals at a rehabilitation facility (: I would love to hang out with your doggo babies when you need me! I am an early riser and work part-time in pet care. It is my primary job- I have regular clients that are my own aside of rover so my calendar on app may be inaccurate. In the clients home- your pet(s) are my first priority and my second priority is your home. Boarding at my home- your pet is still my first priority! We have 1 budgie, 2 cockatiels, 3 dogs, and 2 kittens!
About: I've cared for animals from birth to senior care. I hope you'll trust me to care for your pet with the same love and affection that I do my own. I am home and live alone. There are no children here and I am available for constant love, care and affection. I hope you'll trust me to care for your baby as though they're mine, with all consideration that you would hope for. I have a fenced yard on 2.5 acres and I love to work outdoors, gardening, planting saplings, etc. Your pet would be constantly monitored and played with during all hours.
About: I have trained puppies, I also have a senior dog that has arthritis that I make special food for. I have taken care of animals with anxiety and seizures that require medication. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to play and go for walks. I am available every day but Sunday and can stay overnight. I find it’s easier on the pets to watch them in their own home so they are surrounded by their owner’s smell and in their comfort zone so that it lessens their stress while their family is away.
About: I've had animals since I was a girl and haven't been without a pet since I was 10 years of age. Have had multiple dogs and cats at one time but now down to one 13-yr old male. Will always love and have pets as they are an integral part of my life. I derive much joy from their presence. Daily walks and attention to my own dog and look in on friend's dogs when they're away. My dog has his own bed for daytime but sleeps in my bed at night. I have a good sense about animals and will follow the routine they're used to. I love to connect with any animal if they want it and will give cuddles and rubs for comfort and love ❤️
About: Passionate pet lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience running a 501(c)3 dog rescue right here in Texas! 🐶❤️ From playful pups to senior sweethearts, I’ve cared for animals of all kinds (just not the slithery ones—no thanks! 😅). Safety is always my top priority I keep a close eye on every pet to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and well-loved. I also have extensive experience with medical cases, so you can rest easy knowing your fur babies are in caring, capable hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and give them all the love they deserve! 🐾 I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time. I play with the dogs between calls and then it's fun time for the dogs after work All pets, whether they're at my home or someone else's home, are and will be spoiled rotten. Happiness is my guarantee when it comes to your furbabies.
About: I’ve been a vet tech since 2021 and am currently continuing my education through the Penn Foster Veterinary Technician program. I currently work 2 days per week at an emergency/specialty hospital in Austin. I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or a little extra support. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals throughout my life, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish. I’m Fear Free certified and trained in low-stress handling, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable in my care. I’m also RECOVER CPR certified, which means I’m trained in pet CPR and emergency life support. Whether your pet needs medications, extra patience, or just a calm and caring presence, they’ll be in capable hands with me! I have mostly open availability for drop-in visits, house sitting, and night boarding at my own home (reserved only for feline friends). My schedule includes mornings, evenings, and weekends. Pet care is already a huge part of my daily life, so fitting in visits and maintaining consistent routines for your pets comes naturally to me. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about availability to make sure your pet receives reliable and consistent care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while providing attentive, low-stress care. I’m trained to monitor for any signs of illness or discomfort and can confidently administer medications, including oral, topical, and injectable treatments if needed. If boarding in my home, I live in a spacious two-story house with a large, fenced backyard. I also have a secure catio for supervised outdoor time for kitties who enjoy it. I always introduce pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in a new environment.
About: I have internshiped in a vet clinic. I have worked in a dog boarding/dog sitter and my family comes to me when wanting to take care of their dogs. Im currently work part time and have plenty of time working with your pups! And have more availability night times on weekends and day time weekday! I do have two dogs or are not friendly meaning I can only work with your pets at your house! I will make sure they are fed and in a safe area inside and outside!
About: Hi! Lifelong dog guy here was six years of in-home sitting in fostering experience. I’m good with tiny chaos, puppies, big goofy dogs, and sweet older insert “grumpy gentleman“ who need patience. I’ve watched up to 12 dogs at a time, so schedules, cleanup, and keeping everyone happy is kind of my thing. Your pup gets love, structure, snuggles, and plenty of attention and you’ll get updates too. I’m your guy National mom pet care it’s naturally into my day. I’m currently very flexible until April, so I can plan my schedules around your pet routine. Potty breaks, walks, feeding time, playtime, meds, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I care pets like they’re my own keeping the routine as close to normal as possible. I follow your feeding schedule, potty break/walk, playtime, and any meds exactly as instructed. I’m big on a clean safe (mess happens, no worries I got it), and I’ll watch for anything “off“ like changes in appetite or energy. In your home, a respectful and tidy, and all I’ll send regular updates and photos that you feel totally at ease.
About: With over five years of hands on experience in dog training, boarding, and walking, caring for animals isn’t just something I do for work, it’s something I genuinely love. For the past two years, I’ve supervised a busy boarding and grooming facility, managing daycare groups, giving medications, handling emergency situation when they arose, and making sure every dog and cat received the individual attention they deserve. I’m currently in school to become a vet tech, which helps me better understand animal health, behavior, and safety and gives pet parents extra peace of mind. Whether your pet needs structure/routine, medication support, or just plenty of playtime and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own, safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way! Pet care fits really well into my schedule right now. I’ve recently moved to Austin and I’m finishing up vet tech school, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week. My classes allow me to plan my days around walks, drop ins, daycare, or boarding needs, and I’m used to balancing school with hands on animal care. I will mostly be doing all my services from your home (client) When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to the routine and rules already in place. I make sure the pets get their usual meals, walks, and playtime, and I follow any instructions for medication, feeding, or behavior. I also do a quick check of the house each visit, making sure doors are secure, water is fresh, and litter boxes are clean. I can always be reached and will be happy to send updates or photos as needed. Overall, my goal is to make sure your pet(s) feel safe and relaxed in their own environment while their owner is away!

“One thousand percent would recommend!! They clearly spent time and care ensuring our dogs were 100% comfortable and cared for, and they gave us consistent updates on how they were doing the entire week we were gone. Absolutely will rebook in the future!”
“Absolutely loved working with Chad! He was really patient and took such special care of my sweet boy. I got tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really helped ease my mind. I also appreciated getting to do a meet and greet beforehand so I could see where my dog would be staying. It made a huge difference. I’d definitely recommend Chad if your dog has separation anxiety or doesn’t do well in crates. He doesn’t take on too many overnighters at once, so I knew my dog wouldn’t just be a number. Great experience all around!”
“Mina & Antony were very attentive to our pups! They took them both on regular walks and kept us very up to date with their days! We would definitely book with them again in the future :)”
“Mark is very kind and Ollie was spoiled at his house while we were away. His communication is the best, too! I’m thankful to have found someone trustworthy to take care of our boy.”
“Mary has a great set-up with large, fenced yard. My dog Nova can get separation anxiety, but she was a happy pup when I picked her up after a week of boarding - this tells me her needs were met and she felt comfortable. Great service and daily pics!”
“Natalee is great. She took care of my dogs on short notice and treated them like her own. I appreciated the updates from her and how responsive she is concerning individual dog care institutions. Highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”
“Rosie stayed with Tim for a few nights and I know that she was well taken care of. I received plenty of pictures and updates during the stay. Will definitely book again in the future.”
“Our pup Archer stayed with Brandon and his family for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. Everything went great! We never worried as we knew Archer was in good hands. We will definitely contact Brandon again when needed!”
“Definitely booking again! We had our dog boarding with Jerica and it was GREAT! I usually get very anxious leaving our dog with someone so trust me when I say you won’t regret it! Jerica is very trustworthy, she knows what she’s doing. I really appreciate her love and patience with all dogs!”
“Renada is a great caretaker. My experience has always been amazing and she really loves dogs. She has given her all to take amazing care of my dog and I could not be happier with her services.”

“Ivette is amazing! I had an odd situation where I was on vacation for a wedding and needed new boarding mid vacation and Ivette was so flexible, positive and informative. Communication was honestly above and beyond and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She even used one of her own slow feeders for my dog when she noticed him eating too quickly! So thoughtful! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Princie is great with my dog. Princie was so accommodating and patient to my questions and inquiries. My dog is very comfortable there with boarding as she gets anxious and nervous in new environments and people. Princie ensured she was comfortable and able to settle in well, along with their dog as well. Clean and tidy home. So glad to have found her. Will definitely be using Princie again very soon!”
“Kari and the entire family were amazing, as always! Our senior cat, Bella, got lots of love and attention. She also came home well fed, which says a lot at her age! She is clearly very comfortable and well cared for in their home. Highly recommend!”
“Miho is so good with Bailey. He clearly likes her, and he's not fast to trust and like people. She is very communicative and trustworthy. She is good at building a relationship with Bailey and meeting his needs beyond the basics of food and water.”
“It was Sonic’s first time staying at a sitter’s place, and Heather reassured me that he would be fine. I was impressed with the meet-and-greet and decided to try boarding him there. The whole family is dedicated to ensuring that our puppy has a good time. Their friendly dogs, Winnie and Charlie, added to the positive environment. They kept me updated with requests for updates and sent a picture, and Sonic's relaxed expression said it all. I will definitely use Heather again in the future. I also want to mention her son, who was incredibly helpful. He assisted us in assembling and disassembling the crate, and he is such a kind person.”
