About Us

Born & Raised in Austin, Just Like Your Dog

We're a small team of Austin locals who grew up walking dogs around Zilker Park and swimming with pups at Red Bud Isle. After years of experience in professional pet care, we started Tails & Trails to give Austin's dogs the same love and adventure we grew up with.

Every team member is background-checked, pet first-aid certified, and deeply embedded in the Austin dog community. We volunteer at Austin Pets Alive! and know the best dog-friendly patios on South Congress.

What Austin Dog Owners Say

Real reviews from real neighbors in Austin.

Tails & Trails has been walking our Golden Retriever, Bailey, for over a year. The team knows every trail at Zilker and always sends the cutest photos. Bailey lights up when she sees them!

Clarksville · Golden Retriever

We travel often for work and the overnight stays have been a lifesaver. Coming home to a happy, well-exercised dog after a trip is priceless. They even watered our plants!

East Austin · Two Labs

As a first-time dog owner, I was nervous about leaving Max. The team was patient, sent updates, and treated him like their own. Now Max gets excited when the leash comes out for their visits!
