We love what we do and our reviews show it!

Trusting strangers with not only your home but your pups can be difficult but not with Game Time. They have been consistently kind, responsive, and professional. I rest assured knowing that my two boys (a beagle mix and a boxer) are safe in the company of dog lovers while I’m at work. One of the best perks are the daily posts to Instagram – a quick peek into their visit! I would highly recommend Game Time to anyone looking for a dog walker in Austin.

I love Amy and the Game Time Dog Services team! My husband and I have been using them for the past 2.5 years to walk our 2 dogs, 4 times a week. Amy is super responsive and scheduling is a breeze (even when I have last minute changes). They go above and beyond by bringing in my packages, filling up the water bowl and shooting me a text everyday. I can’t recommend Game Time enough! My favorite is when my sweet girls make her Instagram 🙂

Just returned home from a 6 day vacation in which Game Time was in charge of our two elderly dogs. They are so much more comfortable in our home than at a boarding facility (one is blind so really doesn’t need the stress of a new environment) and having Game Time come puts us so at ease. We sent a long list of instructions (one dog requires medication administration) and Amy followed up with great questions ahead of time. The dogs were so happy and adjusted back easily to us being back home.
