“Yanhong did a great job taking care of our dog. She sent daily updates, and our dog was happy when we picked her up. We would not hesitate to recommend her.”

“Erika was so good! She sent pictures and videos every day, had a safe and secure way to introduce my dogs to other dogs in her care, and was extremely communicative. I can tell my dogs were well taken care of and were happy in her care.”

“Henry had a blast! He truly enjoyed the attention, time and energy with Mary. I am so thankful for her helping me out last minute and just being so amazing with Henry! I will definitely be utilizing Mary again. Henry seemed to really have enjoyed himself.”

“Our first time using Rover was a successs with Denise! She took good care of our puppy, was extremely communicative and put our nerves at ease. It’s also helpful that she has a beautiful home and backyard for our dog to still feel at home.”

“Finley LOVED his stay with Aimee! Finley is usually a nervous pup and I could tell he really trusted and felt relaxed with Aimee. She’s so caring, sends many updates, and loves buying special treats for the dogs. I couldn’t recommend her enough! Finley is looking forward for his next stay with Aimee 🥰.”

“Joel is so great! He was very communicative and helpful in easing my anxieties on leaving my fur baby with a sitter. I had some concerns since she’s a bit of a handful at times but he handled her with ease and did a wonderful job at it. We also had some scheduling issues but he worked with us and was extremely helpful. He provided many photos and kept me updated on how she was doing. 10/10 I will be booking with Joel again! 😄”

“Jen is the best! She takes such good care of our little senior dog. She knows so much about dogs and is great about personalizing their needs that make them happy. Thanks again, Jen!”

“So grateful to have found Sarah. She loves our little girl like her own. What a perfect example of someone who is meant to take care of pups! ❤️❤️”

“Eddie & his wife were absolutely AMAZING! They sent tons of photos & updates, took Brewski for a walk & I know he was well taken care of as if he were their own! My dog had such a blast with Eddie’s family (including their dogs)! HIGHLY recommend & will definitely use again in the future!”

“Samuel was great with my doberman Atlas, sharing updates and pictures and really making sure Atlas stuck to his similar routine that he has at home to make sure he settles in well. I could also tell that Atlas was really comfortable and relaxed which was great to see!”

“Cassandra and Jason were great! Our pup has a checkered past and can be very anxious. However, she was able to settle quickly in their home! They kept us updated each and every day. Our pup had a great stay with them!”

“Marissa was a wonderful host to my girl. I get frequent updates, pictures, and videos of my pup playing and looking happy as a clam. I felt very fortunate to have had such an awesome sitter for my dog and peace of mind while I was away. Would definitely recommend Marissa for a short or long term stay!”

“My dog looked like he was having a great time! Jose has a nice set up in the back yard with ramps and other little things for the dogs. I had an emergency and extended my dog’s stay another night, and he was very kind and accommodating. I would absolutely recommend him!”

“I can’t thank Gol enough for taking such amazing care of my dog. Because of my student situation, my dog lives with me in an apartment and isn’t very social, so this was the first time I was leaving him with someone else. I was honestly very anxious. But Gol completely changed that. She took him out to her large backyard every two hours for playtime, and she kept me updated with videos. Seeing those videos made all the difference — I could clearly see how happy and relaxed he was. Even from the way he wagged his tail, it was obvious he felt safe, comfortable, and emotionally cared for. I’m truly grateful. She went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. I’ll definitely be a regular customer from now on.💚”

“Yazmin took great care of my puppy while I was away. This was my first time using a dog sitter, so I was a little nervous, but she made the entire experience easy and stress-free. She was very communicative and sent pictures and videos throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind and let me see how much fun he was having. She also shared observations, suggestions, and advice about his behavior and personality that I really appreciated. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and took the time to get to know him. I had a great experience and would absolutely trust her to watch my dog again.”

“Barbara was so kind to Olive. Olive had a great time hanging out with Barbara!! Received lots of pictures and updates. Highly recommend booking Barbara for all you small doggie care needs in Austin. Will def book again!”

“Kodak loved his stay with Todd and Milo! Todd was awesome about providing updates & photos. We appreciate knowing Kodak was in good hands while out of town.”

“As usual Sunny had a wonderful time with Lilia and Paisley. He came home well rested. Thanks Lilia for taking good care of my little man. Can't wait for his next "vacay".”

Laura did a fantastic job watching my girls while I was away for the weekend! Laura was very kind, her dog was sweet, and I knew they were going to be well taken care of the moment I dropped them off. She also had great communication / updates throughout their stay! My pups came home as happy as ever, thank you so much!
