PLANT CARE WITH JAVIER NIEVES

A fresh start
for your plants.

I help people in Austin care for their plants, from figuring out watering to repotting a favorite that’s outgrown its pot.

Plant checkups · Cleaning · Pruning · Repotting

Yellowing leaves? A pot that’s too small? You don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’ll look at the light, watering, soil, roots, and drainage, then help you work out what your plants need.

SERVICES & PRICING

with your plants.

WHILE YOU’RE AWAY

Vacation Plant Sitting

I’ll stop by to care for your plants while you’re out of town. We’ll agree on a watering plan and visit schedule before you leave.

  • Watering as needed, with a soil moisture check
  • A basic plant check and removal of fallen leaves
  • A photo update after each visit

From $35 / visit

For a standard Austin visit of up to 30 minutes. Larger collections, extensive outdoor watering, longer visits, and additional travel are quoted before booking.

This is routine care while you’re away. Consultations and repotting are booked separately.

OUTDOOR SPACES, MADE PERSONAL

Let’s make room
for a garden.

You don’t need to know where to begin. We can shape a garden bed, patio planter, or growing corner around your light, space, style, and the things you want to grow.

THERE’S ROOM FOR SOMETHING SMALL

A growing corner
can change a space.

A few thoughtfully chosen plants, a favorite pot, or a little water garden can make a balcony or patio feel more like you.

THE PERSON BEHIND PLANT REBOOT

Hi, I’m Javier Nieves.

Javier walking along a leafy garden path

I was born in Puerto Rico, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve watched my grandfather care for his plants. That love of growing things has stayed with me ever since.

Over the past seven years, I’ve spent my time designing with, caring for, and learning about plants and flowers. There’s still so much to learn, and that’s part of what I love about it.

Plant Reboot is my way of sharing that love here in Austin. Whether you need help with one plant or want to make a little garden of your own, I’d love to help you get started.

A little of my grandfather’s garden comes with me.

BEFORE WE DIG IN

A few good
questions.

What area do you serve?

Plant Reboot is based in Austin. Send your neighborhood with your plant photos so we can confirm whether an in-person visit is available and whether travel affects the quote.

Do I need to buy soil or pots first?

No. Let’s look at your plants first. Any recommended pots, soil, and other materials will be discussed and approved before you buy them or they are added to a quote.

How do booking and payment work?

Email austin@plantreboot.com or message me on Instagram with a few plant photos and your neighborhood. I’ll confirm the service, price, and payment arrangements before we schedule. Larger projects may require a deposit agreed in advance.

Can you care for my plants while I’m away?

Yes. Vacation plant sitting starts at $35 for a visit of up to 30 minutes. Email me your travel dates, neighborhood, and a few photos of the plants you’d like cared for. We’ll confirm the number of visits, total price, care instructions, and home access before you leave.

Can every plant be saved?

Not every plant will recover. I’ll explain what I’m seeing, discuss realistic options, and help you make an informed care plan without promising a guaranteed result.
