Full-Time

This isn’t a side gig. It’s what I do.

Who you’re actually letting in.

I’m Anthony. Austin born, 27 years in this city, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. At one point I had seven pets in one house. That’s not a fun fact, that’s just how I was raised.

I own a five star rated home service company here in Austin. I’m insured, I’m established, and I’m not doing this for extra cash. I’ve been doing this full time for over 16 months and I treat every sit with the same standard I’d hold any professional job to.

Most sitters on the apps are doing the bare minimum. A walk, a check-in, a photo, gone. That’s not what this is. I’m in the home. I’m on the floor with your dog. I’m the person your pet is genuinely sad to see leave when you get back. Multiple hosts have told me their dog missed me after I left. That’s the difference.

I also carry my own personal insurance outside of any platform, I do an in-person walkthrough before every single booking, and I leave every home cleaner than I found it.

Two reasons to book. One standard of care.

Pet Sitting

In-home overnight care for dogs and cats. Same bed, same yard, same routine, just a different person in the house. Nothing about your pet’s day has to change while you’re gone.

House Sitting

No pets, no problem. Mail collected, plants watered, lights on, and the house looking exactly as you left it - occupied, cared for, and ready when you walk back in.

What hosts say.

“

He is the real deal. Came by before the sit for an orientation and met the dogs who loved him instantly. Sent pics and videos with regular reports. We were gone almost three weeks but knew the house was in good hands the whole time. Mail was monitored and collected, pool level maintained. Great communication throughout.

Anthony was amazing with our dog over Thanksgiving. She seemed so happy and well cared for, from going on runs, to getting tons of cuddles, to even doing mini training sessions with him. He left our apartment in great shape and we felt completely at ease the entire time. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive sitter.

Anthony was really great. Super kind, considerate and responsible. He was an absolute dog whisperer. Anthony was super patient with Burrbon and we were so amazed that Burrbon didn’t need any medication to calm his nerves the entire trip. Anthony sent pictures and videos of Burrbon absolutely enjoying his time while we were away. We would be incredibly delighted to have Anthony over again without any reservations.

Anthony was great with the dogs, always in constant communication on how they were doing and the house was well taken care of. Taylor had some stomach issues before we left and he kept a careful watch on her, and she was feeling much better when we returned.

A home that’s checked on, lit up, and picked up while you’re gone comes back to you exactly how you left it, that’s really all this is.

How to set up

01

Reach out with your dates

Call or text with the trip window. I'll verify whether this is possible or not.

02

A quick call to confirm fit

We have a short conversation about your pet, your home, and whether I’m the right fit for this sit.

03

In-person consultation at the home

I come to you, meet your pet, and walk the routine room by room. This happens before every booking.

04

Confirm and book

Dates locked, keys and access sorted, and we agree exactly how updates will work.

05

The stay & the handoff

Updates arrive exactly how you asked for them: photos, texts, calls, or nothing at all. Then I hand the home back the way you left it, with a happier pet in it.
