House Sitter in Austin, Texas

Hi! I'm a native Austinite, an ex-english teacher & an ex-expatriate recently returned home. I'm currently only working part-time while looking into grad schools, so I have PLENTY OF TIME to spend watching over your home & pets so they won't get lonely (both the house & pets). ;-) I'm a responsible, clean, non-smoker & non-drinker who likes to spend her time reading, learning new things, listening to music & chilling in nature. I'm old enough to have had plenty of experience running a household & keeping things safe & secure yet young enough to take your dogs for a run to help them get that energy out! I like things to be clean & orderly (so you might come back to a house even more organized than you left it! only if you want of course...). I absolutely ADORE animals but unfortunately I can't have any at the moment as my apartment doesn't allow it... :-( That's good for you though, because it means there will be NO shortage whatsoever of cuddling, snuggling, petting, playing, and walking for your pets. Having been a world traveler, I completely understand what it's like to leave your home & animals behind while you are elsewhere... the worry, the nervousness, the worst-case-scenario imagining... Don't let these feelings interfere with your trip! Leave knowing your home & animals (& plants!) are being carefully taken care of & watched over. Opt to receive daily (or every few days or whatever you prefer) emails or texts with updates, pictures, etc to soothe your worries. Feel secure knowing you can reach your house/pet sitter by phone or email any time of day while you're away. Leave your home (& animals & plants) with the peace of mind that they are in Loving Responsible Hands. I believe our homes are our sacred escape from the world, our safe haven, & I will treat your house and your animals as I would my own. I'm available for both short and long-term house/pet sitting. Live-in or daily visits.
