Zilker, TX Dog Walking, Pet Sitting & Grooming 

Your Australian cattle dog came home from Zilker Park covered in something. To this day, you’re not sure what it was, and you suspect on some level it’s better that way. It could just be mud from the creek bed near Barton Springs. Let’s hope so. But that doesn’t change the fact that your couch had a rough go of things that evening. You can still see where she sat four years ago.

The thing about living in Zilker is that your dog has access to some of the best outdoor space in Austin. Your dog has no shortage of places to go and has likely been building a mental map of every interesting smell in the neighborhood since the day you moved in. Of course, your indoor cat has no such ambitions and instead focuses on surveilling the street.

Your day and your dog, unfortunately, won’t always cooperate. Sometimes you will be stuck behind someone circling for parking. Or you may have a meeting downtown that ran long. Or it could just be one of those August days that’s so hot the local news is covering the “hot enough to fry an egg” beat again complete with an egg cooking—actually cooking, like over easy—on the sidewalk your dog typically walks on.

Woofie's® of Austin Hill Country is here to help. We provide Zilker dog walking, pet sitting, and mobile grooming for busy pet parents.

Zilker Dog Walking for Active Dogs 

If your dog lives near the park and doesn’t get regular exercise, you will probably hear about it. Herding breeds pace, after all. Retrievers will redirect their energy into household items. Terriers will just dig. And all of them bark.

Our Zilker dog walkers know the neighborhood. They know which trails have shade in the afternoon, where the good off-leash areas are, and how to time a walk to avoid the worst of the summer heat. You can choose a visit ranging from 20 to 60 minutes in length. And the whole walk will be tracked by GPS so you can confirm the walk really happened and you can see how it went.

You can also expect updates via our app journal with email and push notifications. Before beginning, we’ll provide a complimentary consultation so you, and your dog, can confirm we’re a good fit.

In-Home Pet Sitting for Zilker Families 

Your rescue mutt has trust issues with new environments. She's fine at home, but you know that wouldn’t be the case in a boarding facility. Boarding is fine for many pets, but others will act strangely for days afterward, with some even refusing food.

So here’s another option: our pet sitters can come to your Zilker home instead. Your pets get to enjoy the same house, yard, and routine. We learn what they need and then we provide it. That includes food, medications, and exercise, all on their schedule.

Overnight sitters stay from 7 PM to 7 AM for pets who need company through the night. We also offer Bed & Biscuit overnight care for social dogs who enjoy a change of scenery. While you’re away, we can even bring in packages and water plants so you have fewer chores waiting on you when you’re back.

Mobile Grooming at Your Zilker Door 

Your doodle’s coat was manageable two weeks ago. Now it’s a tangled mess behind his ears and harness lines, and on the backs of his legs too. You’ve been meaning to deal with it, but the drive to a grooming salon in traffic like this isn’t something that can be easily scheduled into a day.

Why not have the groomer come to you? Our mobile grooming van can park at your house with everything on board. You don’t need to provide water, power, AC, or equipment. We have all of that. Your doodle can go from matted to magazine-ready without you leaving home.
