Personalized care for your dog or cat - Utley
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Utley
“This was my first trip and leaving my dog with someone. Amber could not have been better as a dog sitter. She sent me pictures throughout the day and kept me updated on how my dog was doing.”
“Kyle was absolutely wonderful with scout. This was our first time using Rover and we were not sure what to expect. Scout came home exhausted! We got lots of pictures and videos each day. Thank you for taking great care of scout!”
“Gracie is the BEST! My original sitter canceled last minute, and she swooped in within an hour to save the day (and my birthday trip). She sent lots of great pictures, her house was very clean, and she was the perfect mix of professional and friendly. Her husband was just as kind and welcoming. I can’t recommend Gracie enough — if you’re looking for someone to watch your Dog go with her.”
“It felt like family was watching our dog! Radha and Bart were super welcoming, thorough, and communicative the whole time we were gone. They made sure to ask questions regarding Abbey’s “quirks” to ensure she felt right at home. I can’t recommend them enough if you want your pup in trustworthy hands while you’re gone!”
“Cassandra and Jason were AMAZING - the best Rover care we have ever experienced. We booked them for an extended stay on short notice when our initial plans changed. They were so communicative and always sent prompt updates & photos. They took Junie on numerous walks and were always asking about her routine to maintain consistency. We feel so fortunate to have found Cassandra and Jason, and I would recommend them to anyone that wants the best care for their pets. We’ll be sending Junie their way for all future stays!”
“Gloria was amazing with my dog! I can tell he had so much fun and I had a peace of mind knowing Gloria and her sweet family were watching my dog and playing with him, taking him on walks, making sure he had enough treats and play time. Really great experience communicating with her as well.”
“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.”
“Sarah is the best! I've never used a service before but Sarah eased all my fears. Her communication is impeccable and I could see in the photos how comfortable my baby boy was with her. 10 out of 10 will use Sarah again!”
“The best! As always she makes us feel at ease when we leave our fur babies at her home. Lilia cares for your dogs just like her own. She even took care of our pups injured paw and kept us updated everyday. She did the extra mile and gave our pup a little birthday photo shoot too.”
“Ivette was outstanding. She took such great care of our pup (Libby). I think our pup ended up having more of a vacation then we did! She even ended up washing Libby’s blanket. We got a bunch of photos and videos of Libby’s stay. Highly recommend! Would like the opportunity to book with Ivette again.”
“Could not be happier with A&E looking after Pooka. Scheduling has been so easy with clear communication and prompt pick-up/drop off and it really takes a lot of stress off of Me because I work a lot of hours. They even send Me videos of Her playing with a wide selection of chews and squeakers and their dog Paisley is such a good sport, even when Pooka can be a bit of a bugaboo. 100% recommend.”
“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!”
“Stacy was very prompt in communicating and sent pictures when requested. My dog, Charli, was jumping on Stacy when we came to pick her up and transitioned back home very easily.”
“Joel was great! He took such good care of Joey. It was my first time leaving him in the care of someone else as I was traveling overseas and his consistent updates and photos kept me at ease and I saw that my cat was really happy and thriving and having such a great time. I would certainly book him again and I highly recommend him. He’s so caring, attentive, detail oriented, and I would love to board Joey with him again!”
“Mariana was very good with our dog. Even though we had a last minute requirement, she was accommodating. She sent us pictures throughout as per our request. Our dog came back happy. Would highly recommend her!”
“Adriana provided excellent overnight care and was accommodating with my dog’s medical needs. She sent me pics and videos on a daily basis which was extremely helpful since this was my first time using River- I will definitely book again. As an added plus, she sent my dog home with a beautiful Christmas bandanna and a little bag of dog treats which included a cute little note and magnet with my dog’s pic in front of a Christmas tree- such a great surprise!! Thank you, Adriana!!!!”

“Freckles was sad that I returned home and that Kellie’s time was over. Kellie was fabulous with our sweet kitty and sent regular updates, photos, and was just the best. 15/10 would recommend! Thank you Kellie, for giving me peace of mind being away from our sweet girl!”
About: I have taken care of other pets since elementary school. Neighbors and friends, even farm animals like sheep and goats. I can take care of it all! I currently work part time and I’m just looking to make some more money over the summer. I have some extra free time while I’m on break form school so why not make some extra cash to save. I currently live in an apartment but there are multiple dog parks close by and plenty of space for nice long walks. It’s only me and my dog I’m my apartment right now but she is very well mannered and mellow.
“Lori did great as always and was able to cover holidays for me. I am so lucky to have her and the kitties are always glad to see her. Mittie watches out the window when she leaves.”
“Tamara did a great job feeding our three cats, including a high maintenance one. Sent pics and everything was clean and cats did great. Relieved to know we can depend on her in the future, thanks!”
“Brianna took great care of our two Goldens for a whole week! It was our first time hiring a pet sitter so we were really nervous to have someone come to our home and care for our babies but after meeting Brianna, we immediately knew we were in good hands. We got daily pictures and updates, she was always on schedule and we didn't have to worry about a thing. It was clear that they were very well loved and cared for while we were away. I am so glad we found Brianna - we will definitely work with her again! Thank you, Brianna!!”

“Maeghan was amazing with out boys and even was able to pick up an extra check in for us on short notice! It was a lot easier to relax on vacation knowing someone dependable was checking on our boys during the day.”
“Michelle was lovely! Looked after our sweet cat while we were gone for the holiday. We came back and Juni was happy and fed which is all I care about! She also left the house super clean and locked up when she left. Definitely will be rebooking!”

“Amanda is an amazing dog sitter that I highly, highly recommend. She is not only responsive, prompt and flexible, but she is also kind and loving. Truly authentic and has a heart of gold.

I also have a dog and indoor/outdoor cat and have trained them to get along and perform jobs.I I am a work from home entrepreneur with 1 acre who also works with a local farm on 20 acres, so there is always plenty of space and time to take care of animals. I have a half acre fenced yard with a standard 4' fence so as long as your doggo isn't tiny or able to jump fences they'll be able to stay outside longer if they like. Otherwise I can monitor them or walk them around the property. I have en elderly dog who may play with your dog(s) or who may keep to himself. I have an outdoor cat that takes care of snakes, bugs and rodents who also comes in the house sometimes. I have access to 1 or 2 small to medium crates, &/or if you prefer to provide a crate, I can crate your dog as well. If dogs are well trained and well behaved, I also have access to a 20 acre farm in the neighborhood so we can go there for exercise.

About: Hello there! My name is Sofía, and I can’t wait to care of your pet! Here are some things you should know about me : I have one dog living with me. I have volunteered at animal shelters, wildlife rescue facilities, and animal therapy organizations. When volunteering at shelters, I bathed dogs, cleaned up their poop, played with, and walked them as well as played with cats. Additionally, I enjoy outdoor activities very much, so I am definitely in shape to walk your dogs and play with them. I hope I can be of service to you and your dog(s). My backyard is unfenced, except for the patio area and a room sized square for dogs to pee/poop in. Dogs are not allowed on furniture, but they can be on the bed if they stay on top of the blanket. If you know your dog won’t run away, we can play in the unfenced area of the backyard :) I do have a 30 ft leash that I normally use to play with my dog outside. I work a few hours during the week, 2:30-6pm from Monday to Friday, but I am usually available outside of this chunk of time (plus traveling time). I will care for your pets however is needed and instructed. I have taken care of multiple senior dogs and dogs that take oral medication.
About: I have experience with puppies from age five months. I have my own dog, Goldie, a golden doodle. I’ve had her for 3 years ☺️ We are a dog loving family & want to open up our home to some more furry friends! I’m a stay at home mom, so I am home almost all day every day. Dogs would be well cared for, get outdoor time (we have a covered patio for those hot days), and go on walks in our neighborhood. I bring my dog to the trails at Colorado River Refuge sometimes so if you are booking a long stay we might go out to the trails a few times a week for a nice long walk/playtime. I have a decent backyard, fenced with grass. We have a friendly dog at home that would love some playmates! We take our dog on walks around the neighborhood and play with her in our large backyard.
About: Animals hold a massive piece of my heart, and I have dedicated my life to their care and well-being. My mission began over 15 years ago when I started rescuing animals and finding them loving forever homes. Over the years, I have deepened this commitment by working directly in animal shelters, volunteering, and fostering for rescues. For me, ensuring that animals live a life full of love, safety, and happiness is truly a life calling. I have been a professional pet sitter for over eight years. Because of my extensive background in shelter environments and rescue work, I am deeply comfortable working with all breeds, sizes, and unique behaviors. Full-Time Dedicated Care I recently relocated from Houston to Paige, where I continue to pursue pet care as my dedicated, full-time profession. Because this is my full-time job, I am able to offer an exceptional level of quality care and attentiveness that sets my services apart.

“First time with Gracie, and Milo did very well. He has a new friend in Mocha. Gracie tried to engage him, even though he usually keeps to himself. Very good experience and we are happy with the care that Milo received. 🥰”
“Super -duper pet sitter w/ such a great approach for our little traumatized pound puppy. He has a natural talent for animals, but the fact he's a certified vet tech just adds a bonus. It's rare to meet someone that is so compassionate, but also has skills to deal w) a pet that needs additional medical care or attention. Justin was great about sharing updates and photos while our Bonnie was in his care. After some initial apprehension, we relaxed realizing she was comfortable and happy with him. It's easy to recommend Justin for an excellent care giver. His rates are very reasonable, also. If there were more than 5 stars, we'd add more as well as rate him as outstanding! Thanks so much for helping us enjoy our trip away!”
About: Dogs are a huge part of my life, and I truly care about their health, happiness, and comfort. I own a dog food company and a founder of Paws on the Street, a 501(c)(3), so caring for animals is more than just something I enjoy. I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they get the love, attention, and dependable care they deserve while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day for your pooch. Safety, trust, and comfort are very important to me. I have a fully fenced 1-acre yard that gives dogs plenty of space to safely play, explore, and get exercise in a secure environment.
About: Hi there! I’m a Minnesota born, Bastrop-based dog lover and I’m glad you’ve found my profile. I've been around dogs my entire life and believe a dog makes a house a home. My own fur baby, Milou, is a 5 year old lab mix who loves other dogs and people. He will gladly accept a pal to join us on walks, or chase around the backyard. I have 5+ years experience volunteering with various animal shelters and a plethora of nights & weekends spent house/dog sitting for friends and family. I love to explore new trails, parks, & hikes so your pup's stay will be an active one! I am also a runner and will gladly take your dog along to burn off some extra energy. I took a couple years off from Rover as my family relocated several times. Now that we are settled in the Austin area, I am ready to get back to dog sitting/walking/boarding, and hope to meet you soon! I work from home so I am around to provide company, potty breaks, and perhaps even a lunchtime trip to the dog park! Canine coworkers are my favorite. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to roam safely. My dog loves hanging out back there and would enjoy a teammate to help him put the neighborhood squirrels in their place ;)
“I am writing this after the first week of daycare for my young lab and could not be more pleased with the care and attention she is receiving. Lola has “endless energy” and came home exhausted every day! Ashley has provided great communication throughout and I would recommend highly.”

My older dog has medical needs so I am experienced with medication schedules and keeping an eye out for side effects.
“Sierra is super sweet and my pup Khaleesi absolutely loved her. She’s extremely responsive and went above and beyond to come meet us before her first walk with my dog. She has great energy and will absolutely be booking again. Thank you!”
About: Hi, I’m Nyeira! As a dedicated pet owner and animal lover, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide the same level of care, attention, and love that I would want for my own dogs. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and currently have three dogs of my own. Two were adopted from shelters, and one was a stray I rescued while in college. Caring for pets from different backgrounds has taught me patience, consistency, and how to help animals feel safe and comfortable in new situations. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their dogs and cats because they know I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, and I am comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I will make sure they receive personalized care and attention. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, although I generally prefer working with dogs under 80 pounds. Communication is extremely important to me. As a pet parent myself, I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away. You can expect consistent communication, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently have open availability and ask that bookings or cancellations be made at least 48 hours in advance whenever possible. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I have a very flexible schedule and am available both weekdays and weekends, with open availability throughout the day to accommodate your pet’s needs. I am able to provide care in the form of house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, depending on what works best for you and your pet. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I am fully committed to caring for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable. I am adaptable with timing and happy to follow your preferred schedule and routine to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care whenever you need it, with clear communication and dependable availability. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in every pet care situation. While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I provide care in the client’s home through house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks so pets can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any specific behavioral or comfort preferences. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and personality to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and am comfortable administering medications when needed. I also provide consistent updates, including messages and photos, so pet parents can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy presence for pets—minimizing stress by maintaining their normal routine and treating their space and care instructions with respect and attentiveness.
About: I’ve been a huge dog lover since I was ten years old! Growing up, I pet-sat for neighbors, family, and friends, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, walking, and keeping pups entertained. I’ve owned three dogs throughout my life and am currently a proud Shih Tzu owner, so I definitely know my way around a big 'lion dog' personality! I also enjoy training; I’ve taught my dogs everything from basic sits and paw-shakes to 'wait' commands for meals and even some fun moves like dancing. I truly just love being around dogs! I'm currently a full time college student but I still have lots of time to play and take care of your dogs! My availability is usually in the afternoon on weekdays and mostly open throughout the day on weekends. Just send me a message and I'll coordinate as best with your times! When sitting in your home, my priority is maintaining your dog's familiar routine to keep them stress free. I stick to your established feeding, walking, and medication schedules! And I make sure to have fun with them :)

I can host most caged exotics in my home and a different rate that can be discussed at booking. I do prefer payment via cash, check, or venmo. Have a great day!

I’m currently working full time remotely at home. I have the flexibility to leave home to check on any fur babies when I need to. I have two kittens and a senior dog. They are very playful but are scared of bigger dogs at the moment. We are working on them seeing there is nothing to fear of.

About: I have been working part time with Rover for several years. I recently had to put my 13-year-old lab down, so I do not currently have any pets. Animals are the brightest part of our world and nothing makes me happier than spending time with doggies and kitties. I currently volunteer for PALS, a program under Meals on Wheels, that provides food for animals in senior homes. I loved to walk my dog and would be more than happy to provide dog walking services to others on the weekends. I work weekdays, but am available after 5 pm and will work Saturdays, and Sundays. I cannot wait to get started and meet all the sweet babies! I currently work weekdays, but can devote time after work and weekends. I can utilize lunch breaks to check on pets and nights and weekends for more one on one time. I own a home with a fenced in yard for my dog.

They are members of my family, just like your dog is for you! I'd love to help you and your furry friend and we will both welcome them to our home. Lulu, Batman and I love going to the dog park to meet other dogs. When your dog is in my care, I will treat them like my own! There's nothing like seeing a wagging tail and happy smile on the face of a dog you're caring for. I promise to make sure that your dog is healthy, happy and comfortable while you're away. Exercise is important to me and I don't rest until the dog is worn out, making sure we both sleep great at night. When you book with me, you can rest assured that you're leaving your dog in the hands of someone both experienced and loving. Your dog will be begging for another visit once they meet me, my wife, Lulu and Batman! P.S. I have once lived with a cat for 4 years and am also comfortable taking care of your feline.

“Kyle was absolutely wonderful with scout. This was our first time using Rover and we were not sure what to expect. Scout came home exhausted! We got lots of pictures and videos each day. Thank you for taking great care of scout!”
“Cassandra and Jason were AMAZING - the best Rover care we have ever experienced. We booked them for an extended stay on short notice when our initial plans changed. They were so communicative and always sent prompt updates & photos. They took Junie on numerous walks and were always asking about her routine to maintain consistency. We feel so fortunate to have found Cassandra and Jason, and I would recommend them to anyone that wants the best care for their pets. We’ll be sending Junie their way for all future stays!”
“Gloria was amazing with my dog! I can tell he had so much fun and I had a peace of mind knowing Gloria and her sweet family were watching my dog and playing with him, taking him on walks, making sure he had enough treats and play time. Really great experience communicating with her as well.”
“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.”
“Sarah is the best! I've never used a service before but Sarah eased all my fears. Her communication is impeccable and I could see in the photos how comfortable my baby boy was with her. 10 out of 10 will use Sarah again!”
“Ivette was outstanding. She took such great care of our pup (Libby). I think our pup ended up having more of a vacation then we did! She even ended up washing Libby’s blanket. We got a bunch of photos and videos of Libby’s stay. Highly recommend! Would like the opportunity to book with Ivette again.”
“Could not be happier with A&E looking after Pooka. Scheduling has been so easy with clear communication and prompt pick-up/drop off and it really takes a lot of stress off of Me because I work a lot of hours. They even send Me videos of Her playing with a wide selection of chews and squeakers and their dog Paisley is such a good sport, even when Pooka can be a bit of a bugaboo. 100% recommend.”
“Stacy was very prompt in communicating and sent pictures when requested. My dog, Charli, was jumping on Stacy when we came to pick her up and transitioned back home very easily.”
“Mariana was very good with our dog. Even though we had a last minute requirement, she was accommodating. She sent us pictures throughout as per our request. Our dog came back happy. Would highly recommend her!”
“Adriana provided excellent overnight care and was accommodating with my dog’s medical needs. She sent me pics and videos on a daily basis which was extremely helpful since this was my first time using River- I will definitely book again. As an added plus, she sent my dog home with a beautiful Christmas bandanna and a little bag of dog treats which included a cute little note and magnet with my dog’s pic in front of a Christmas tree- such a great surprise!! Thank you, Adriana!!!!”
“Chad hasn’t ever disappointed when caring for our fur baby penny. Our fur baby was with him for 3 weeks and she loved every minute of it. She played and had fun in the sun while we were away for work. Chad went above and beyond for penny. He surprised us by bathing her and trimming her nails and sending us pictures of the little moments. His cute little pup Ellie loves penny and penny loves Ellie. Penny always has a great time when she’s with Chad, she’s always well taken care of, we haven’t had to worry about a thing when our fur baby is under his care. I recommend Chad with your baby I can’t tell you they will have a great time and be well take care of.”
“Went for a little away time with my lady and Brianna came thru on like 2 hours of notice within blinking an eye. We dropped Pazzo off and after meeting her i was a lot more at ease in knowing that my dog would be in safe hands. Then she send a couple of photos on day 2 and informed me that Topaz was doing fantastic. We returned the following day and i saw that she wanted to confirm the drop off time because she had an errand to run in the late afternoon.. very punctual, affordable and accommodating and if we find ourselves in a similar situation going forward, we will be barking up Brianna tree. Lame pun intended!!! Thanks 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!”
“Mina was absolutely amazing! She took care of my dog for three days and treated her like family. I could tell my pup was happy, well-fed, and loved while I was away. Mina sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s responsible, kind, and truly has a heart for animals. I’m beyond grateful for her help and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Mina!”
“Our dog had a great time with Jacob. Jacob had lots of space for our dog to relax and took time to make sure he understood all of our care instructions upon booking. We received regular updates while we were away and pickup and drop off was easy to coordinate. We’ll be back in the future!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care & attention Aine gave to Kylie. My baby settled in in no time. Aine was so welcoming that both Kylie & I were made to feel very comfortable immediately. She was kind enough to keep me posted with photos & updates which made our separation much easier. I would highly recommend her as an excellent candidate to care for your pet.”
“Amanda was amazing! Super communicative, flexible, and sent us so many pics of our sweet pup throughout our trip away. She asked great questions during our meet and greet to make sure that our dog got the best possible care. It was wonderful to know Piper was in such good hands while we were away! Highly recommend!”
“Cheyanne was amazing with my dog Courage. It takes him awhile to trust and be comfortable with new people, but Cheyanne respected his boundaries and made him feel comfortable and safe. I can’t thank her enough for taking care of my dog.”
