Tracy Smith

Owner

Hi my name is Tracy Smith. As a life long pet owner I fully understand the incredible bond and sense of responsibility we feel for fur family. They are more than just a pet, or even a best friend; Kobe was my whole heart.

As a veterinary emergency & critical care nurse, I am a constant witness to the very real struggle some pet parents face when trying to find care for their pets. Having struggled myself to find trustworthy pet care and worrying myself to death while I was away, I knew I had to do something. So, after careful consideration I founded Luv My Sitter. My goal was then, as it is now, to provide pet parents with reliable and quality pet care, regardless of the pets physical, emotional or medical need.

I am very proud of the company and the pet care specialists on my team. I hope you’ll be equally proud to have us as part of your family.

Faraz

Pet Care Specialist

Hello, my name is Faraz. By day I am a Protein Expression and Process Development Scientist. I have a Ph.D in Cell Physiology and Molecular Biophysics but I also hold degrees in Chemical Engineering and Biomedical Sciences. During my studies I served as President of Animal Club at the University and volunteered in shelters and rehab centers for wild animals.

I play the pipe organ, piano, accordion, bagpipes, harmonica, and ocarina. Although classically trained, I love to make people happy using my music.

Thank you for learning about me. I am very much looking forward to caring for your pets.

Joseph

Pet Care Specialist

Hello, I’m Joseph. Born and raised in Austin, I am a lifelong pet lover. Growing up I had a dog named Benji who was the best dog I ever had. He was so sweet and gentle but when it was called for, he took his job as head of security seriously. These days I have a cat named Sammy and a dog named Zeus.

When I’m not at work, you will find me hanging out with Sammy, out running with Zeus or joy riding in my car. I enjoy going to the gym, spending time at the lake and I am looking forward to getting to know you and your pet.

Rebekah

Pet Care Specialist

Hey! My name is Rebekah. I was born and raised in Austin, and graduated from Texas State with a degree in Mathematics. I am a very active, outside all the time, adventure seeker. I grew up taking care of animals large and small, and I have 2 dogs and a horse of my own. I frequently take my pups on adventures with me, anything from coffee runs to spending the day out on the lake.

As much as I like to get out, I’m just as happy to curl up on the couch for lazy-day cuddles. My passion is caring for animals. I’m the kind of person that always gets excited to see a dog, and if you can’t find me look for the nearest animal. I’m beyond excited to meet your pets!”

Andrea

Pet Care Specialist

Hello! My name is Andrea and I lived in Austin going on two years now. I grew up on a large farm in Alaska with animals of all sizes, and participated in market 4-H until I graduated from high school. Growing up I was determined to follow in my mother’s footsteps to be a veterinarian, but once I found out how much math was involved I quickly changed my mind.

Nowadays, I am determined to make an impact in the lives of animals by fostering and caring for the pets of others when their owners can not. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets soon!
