About: I’m reliable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routines. I’m very communicative with owners and always provide updates and photos. I’m also patient with different personalities—whether that’s energetic dogs that need activity or more relaxed pets that just want calm companionship. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I’m typically up early and active throughout the day, which makes it easy to provide reliable morning and evening care. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications, while making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is doing well.
“Regan took excellent care of my kitty for 2 weeks. Easy communication with great updates and photos. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again.”

“Annie was incredibly responsible, responsive, thoughtful, so loving and sweet toward my new rescue cat, Shadow, and went above and beyond. I was nervous to leave town for the first time since adopting him, but Annie alleviated all stress just by how thorough she was every step of the way. I cannot thank her enough, and will definitely be booking her for any future sitter needs.”
“Thank you Katie! Chickens aren’t easy or always fun to wrangle! We appreciate your consistency and creativity getting them cooped each night and making sure they were safe. We also appreciate how communicative you were during our trip.”
“Andrea was a joy to work with. She arrived for our meet up ahead of time, and took care of our cat right on schedule. We appreciate her being available in short notice, as well.”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs, worked at a vet clinic when I was younger, and became a doggie foster as an adult. I have experience caring for senior pups as well. I'll treat your pup as a loved family member. Rest assured, your fur baby will be in good hands. I am mostly a stay a home mom. I take my dog to the dog park daily, and when the weather is nice we will walk Town Lake. I have cameras in my home and on the property. If I am not home I can take a look at how the dogs are doing. I also have a fenced in yard.
About: I have also dog sat a bulldog, French bulldog and shihtzu many times (board sitting). I have helped with bathing, walking, feeding, feed medication, training, and playing! Bonus: I take quality, fun photos of your dog! I currently WFH full time 9-5/MF; with ample breaks for walks, potty breaks and playtime. My schedule is very flexible and I love to get outside at least 2x a day for a walk or gentle run. My home is dog proof and clean (hardwood floors/ cables hidden). No plants are in reach for the pets either. AC runs strong, I only pour filtered water (refill bowl daily), aware of which foods are poisonous to dogs, no smoking, and don’t play loud music. My apartment building is dog friendly, neighbors are well-mannered with their own dogs and 15 min walk to lake Austin and trails
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and energy levels — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and comfort. I understand that every dog is different, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, drop-ins, play sessions, and quality care for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may feel nervous in new environments or around new people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible during our time together. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I make sure pets are always supervised. I’m attentive to behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Marissa was very attentive to our puppy. She went out if her way to talke extra care of her, gave her medicine and always walked her and sent us picttires. She was very responsible and easy to work with”
“Jen took great care of my little best friend! He was excited to arrive and meet the dogs of the house and they were excited to meet him! It is immediately obvious that Jen is a bone-a-fied (pun intended) Dog Person!”
“Denise has been wonderful with my puppy Luna for her first week at daycare! She really gets to know the dogs and has a nice yard for them to play in. She has been very communicative and sends pictures throughout the day. Denise was also fairly flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, which I appreciated. Huge thanks to her for helping me out my first week going back to my office for work after getting my pup!”
“I had a wonderful experience. I showed up completely forgetting my pup’s belongings and didn’t get a chance to drive home to grab his stuff. They were very accommodating and helped me feel at ease with text updates and photos. When I picked up my pup his tail was wagging and I could tell he had a good time. Will definitely use their services again! Thanks again for everything !”
“Kristen had great reviews that made us pick her and she lived up to the hype. Fantastic job with our little pupper who couldn't wait to go back. She has been great and we will use her again.”
“Karina watched my dog (Zelda) two days in a row. Sent me pics and updates throughout the day. Zelda ran right to her the second day and was definitely excited to see her and tired when I picked her up. Definitely recommend, and will rebook in the future!”
“I left another awesome review many months ago, and my boy Frodo has visited nearly EVERY Wednesday since! I cannot say enough how much we trust her with our little guy. He has grown so much while spending time with her and her doggy crew and is usually the most well adjusted dog anywhere we take him to play. We can see how much she loves him, and he whines all the way down her street ready to jump out of the car and play. We HIGHLY recommend her for all your doggie needs. Come join Frodo for Wednesday Playday!”
“We’re so grateful for Rachele, who took a last minute request to watch our mini Aussie for 3 days. Piper always came home happy and tired, from a fun day of walks and play. I got lots of updates and cute photos. We’ll definitely be rebooking. Thank you, Rachele 🥰”
“Highly recommend! Simone was nice, empathetic, and patient! She sent regular updates on our dog with photos and videos. She let our dog sit on her lap while she was working. As a dog parent herself, she clearly knows how to take amazing care of pups!”
About: We're a family of four with two little girls (ages 4 and 2) and a stinky cute old pug. We're located on the north end of MI and have an enclosed yard for your dog (plus an extra enclosed space on the side of the house) and a wrap a round porch. Our door is pretty much always open so the dogs can go in and out as they please and our gates are super secure so unless your dog is a digger, they're safe in our yard. We also only board dogs who are two or older. :-) I'm at home every day and gone no more than a few hours to run my kids around to their activities each day. I've taken the dogs I've watched with me on all errands if they like car rides so they're pretty much around someone 90% of the time they stay with us. Our house is three stories and our current Pug is 8 years old and mostly blind so she sleeps a large portion of the day. She will sniff other dogs but that's the extent of her socializing and she will mostly just ignore guests. My girls and I love animals and your dog would feel like part of our family! Your dog would go on daily walks and if they're comfortable in cars, running my errands with me and my girls! We have an extra crate if your dog wants to sleep there or they can sleep with us in our bed or with one of my girls.
