Services

Whether your dog loves a long, structured walk, a splash in the creek or just a sniff around the yard, Gusto Dogs offers several different ways to get your dog out and about around Austin. We also offer cat sitting services for our fellow feline lovers!

Dog Walking

Giving your dog a way to drain his energy and exercise his mind will make it easier for him to stick by the rules and boundaries you’ve set for him at home.

Your customized visit will include both exercise and enrichment, and is a big step toward living with a better behaved and more fulfilled dog.

Your dog walk will include:

You will also receive:

  •  A free meet-and-greet session
  •  Progress reports
  •  Optional homework for you and your family

Potty Breaks

We offer quick potty breaks for our Gusto Dogs who ‘gotta go’ but don’t need a walk or activity.

Great for:

  • Young puppies
  • Older or less-abled dogs
  • Dogs on medication or recovering from surgery/illness

Pet sitting

While our primary service is weekday dog walking, we do offer pet sitting services depending on availability. Gusto Dogs can provide a professional sitter to your home one to three times daily to look after your dog or cat. Make sure you check with us well in advance of your time away since pet sitting is limited!

Your dog sitting service will include:

  • Fresh food and water
  • Walks and potty breaks
  • Plenty of love and attention!

Your cat sitting service will include:

  • Fresh food and water
  • Daily litter scooping
  • Plenty of love and attention! (and plenty of respect for the shyer cats who prefer to be loved from a distance)

You will also receive:

  •  Regular updates via text or email
  •  Home services like bringing in mail, watering plants, alternating lights, etc.

Companion visits (up to three hours), medication administration and full litter pan sanitizing can be arranged per request.

Companion visits

It’s recommended that dogs receive at least four hours of human companionship every day. Many affectionate cats seem to feel the same way! If you are out of town or unable to give your pet the minimum amount of attention he or she usually needs, we can spend up to three hours with your pet in one visit.

This would make a great addition to any other potty break, pet sitting or dog walking visits you may have already scheduled or as a single, longer break while you are away for the day. Longer visits greatly reduce anxiety or loneliness. While we’re there we can work on commands, provide lots of playtime and cuddles or just be present in the home to contribute familiar sounds and comforts.
