Dog Sitting In My Home

Avg response < 2 hrs

I love dogs. I always have. We have 2 lovely dogs in our home and they love having visitors. They are both older and very gentle. I have a small homemade dog food company so everyone here eats very well. I have a large backyard and live in a great dog friendly neighborhood. We sleep in a king size bed and doggies are always welcome Two years ago, we went to Europe for a month long vacation. Stupidly, I hired some young kids that I did not check out to house sit our beloved pets. 15 days into the trip, we found out they burned our house down. It was a complete rebuild. We had wonderful insurance and the house is completely restored but the dogs were abandoned and the caretakers fled the scene. I lose my mind when I am reminded that our neighbors found the dogs and placed them in a kennel As a result, I must assure you, I am highly competent, mature, empathetic, responsible and caring.

Pet Care Professional

Avg response < 15 hrs

I have previously worked in the animal industry for over 10 years. I was hired as a Kennel Tech at Animal Hospital on South Lamar as well as Suburban Animal Hospital in Rochester New York. I worked as Pet Care Attendant. Some of my duties included walking, scooping, training, medicine administration, clipping nails, cleaning/grooming, etc. I own 2 dogs and 2 cats myself, and both of my dogs have special medical needs. I am also available to be your in-home pet sitter for all of your pet and household needs while you travel for work or play.

Giving you time away with no worries. I have personally had a Parakeet, Saltwater Fish Tank, three Boston Terriers, and two Siamese but not all at the same time. I was never a breeder, they were my babies. One Male lost and eye and developed Epilepsy, He had to take meds daily. I trained and Groomed my pets. Grooming - Bathing, cleaning ears and clip nails. They were walked, they were all fixed, feed twice daily by splitting food. Treats were used for training to do tricks - Sit, Sit Up, Lay Down, Roll Over, Stand Up and Dance. A lot of people use Doggie Doors but depending on the yard size, your pet might like more exercise. I feel a Halter is the best not just attaching the Leash to a Collar less possibility of throat issues. One day or week long vacation, only at their home. I have been background checked with the School systems while being a Para-Sub and the State TDCJ while working there.

I Love Animal Pet-sitting

Growing up, I had many types of pets. I like to describe the way I was raised as "in a zoo." My mother loved animals, so much that she started her own pet-sitting business called I LOVE ANIMALS! I helped mom during the busy seasons: spring break, summer, Thanksgiving, and the holidays. We took care of other people's animals in their homes, so that animals experienced as little stress as possible while their owners were relieving their stress on vacation! Over the years, I have cared for all types of animals, including but not limited to lizards, guinea pigs, ferrets, chinchillas, birds, dogs, goats, pigs, and horses. I also volunteer at Austin Pets Alive! walking dogs and the shelter and fostering senior dogs.

Myria has the sweetest spirit and a very apparent deep love for animals. She is prudent, very willing to extend help, kept me updated on my pets, and always had a smile on her face. I am grateful to have had her as a caretaker, but even more grateful to have met her.

Pet Sitter Available

Avg response < 11 hrs

Hello! My name is Veronika and I would like to take care of your fur friend! I have a lot of experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I also have a certificate as Veterinary assistant. I can walk your pup or take care of it while you are on vacation or I can do some basic training too. Besides dogs, I have also some experience with cats, birds, rabbits and some farm animals. And I am more than happy to take care of them too! Currently I have a rescue dog who would love to have a friend, so if your dog needs to socialize or just want a companion, that would be great! I can also help with household or errands, if you need me to. Let me know if you have any questions! I am looking forward to hear from you!

Part-Time Or Live-In Caregiver

Avg response < 12 hrs

I have been trained through a Pet Care program and have been pet sitting regularly over the past seven years. I have also owned animals (chickens, ducks, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, birds, and fish) throughout my life. I recently welcomed a rescue pitbull into my life to join my two sweet cats. I have experience administering medicine to ill animals and have been trained to read both canine and feline body language. I love playing tug-of-war with dogs, cuddling cats, and being around as many fur babies as possible!

Former Dog Trainer, Lifelong Animal Lover

I grew up in the country with every pet imaginable. When my children were growing up we boarded dogs and I worked as a private dog trainer. I also worked part-time for my local veterinarian. I have recently relocated to SW Austin with my fur baby Sophie and would love to help you with pet sitting, boarding in my home or just daily visit for a walk and feeding. Please reach out and let me know how I can help.

Cat Whisperer And Dog Walker Available

I grew up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable with light grooming, such as brushing and toenail trimming. I am an experience dog handler, and grew up showing pedigree show dogs in rings. I can easily walk any dog that weighs less than 65 lbs. I would be glad to take them to a dog park or into the backyard for a good game of catch, Frisbee, or rope-tugging. Cats naturally love me, and I have been cat-sitting for over 15 years now. I am more than happy to spend some time each day with your cat while you are out of town, if they are needy like mine are: socializing, grooming, playing with them, and petting them. But, if you just want someone to run in, feed them, and make sure they are okay, I can do that too. I'm very skilled at making sure they take daily medications they may be on, even those stubborn kitties who argue every time that they don't need meds. I am capable of caring for other types of animals and pets---just ask!

Totally reliable. My cat likes her more than me.
