“Sophia and Pilar are the best sitters we could ask for. Vader loves them, and they are always kind, caring, and thoughtful with their text messages and care for him. I’m thankful we found this service to care for him while we were away. The peace of mind this service brings us is invaluable.”

Yes! Overnight pet sitting is an excellent option for Austin’s most pampered pets, especially puppies, seniors, pets with separation anxiety, health concerns, and other special needs. In addition to overnight services, which are, as the name indicates, all night, we offer extended evening visits during which we stay with your pets from 7 PM to 9 PM, recreating their evening routine and tucking them in for the night.

Whether you’re at work, traveling, working late, or heading to the gym after work, we are happy to come over and handle your cat’s feeding, medication, enrichment, and other tasks. We will work with you to design a visit schedule that works best for you and your cat, with a minimum of one visit per day to ensure your cat’s safety and well-being.
