About: Animals have always been a huge passion of mine, and caring for them brings me an enormous amount of joy. I’ve had animals of all kinds since the day I was born and have experience caring for everything from dogs and cats to livestock and exotic animals. I attended Louisiana Tech University in Ruston from 2022–2026, where I majored in Animal Science with a concentration in Pre-Veterinary Medicine. While at Louisiana Tech, I served as President of the Pre-Vet Club and worked as the club’s publicist. I also worked as a barn hand while in college and grew up working at a horse barn. Before moving to Ruston, I spent a year working as a veterinary assistant at a veterinary clinic. Pet sitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, family, and clients in Ruston. I understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I recently moved back to my hometown of Mandeville, LA, and now have plenty of time and flexibility for pet sitting. I’m excited to meet new clients and, most importantly, make some new (furry, scaly, feathery, or hoofed) friends along the way! Since moving back home to Mandeville, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am currently taking a break from school, so I am able to work pet sitting and walks into my daily routine without having to rush between other commitments. I’m able to give each pet plenty of attention and can adjust my schedule around their individual routines, including feeding times, walks, medications, and other special care needs. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away! I’m happy to help with almost all of your pet-sitting needs, whether that means a walk around the neighborhood, a quick check-in, or spending more time with your pet while you’re away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. With my background in Animal Science, experience working as a veterinary assistant, and years of caring for animals, I am prepared to recognize and respond appropriately to many common situations that may arise. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when someone else is caring for your pets. I will always be easy to reach while caring for your pet and am happy to answer questions, provide updates, or address any concerns you may have. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

I was so lucky to find Alyssa, my schedule changed on short notice and she responded immediately to my booking request. We had a call before the visits and my Benny loved her! She did such a great job with my stubborn but very sweet senior pup! I highly recommend her and look forward to future bookings!

About: I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet! I have a deep love for all animals, but I have the most experience with dogs and some cats as I’ve been pet sitting since a young age. I’ve had dogs and cats as pets my entire life. I’ve also helped raised three litters of puppies. I work full time Monday through Friday, but I am off every other Friday and get home early afternoon on the Fridays that I do work. I am free most Saturdays and Sundays based on my calendar availability. Book me for your next long weekend! I currently work full time 30 minutes from my home. My work schedule is 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM Monday through Friday. I have every other Friday off so I do have availability for 3 day weekend care every other weekend! On the weekends, I typically stay in besides errands or the occasional going out to dinner. I have a large fenced yard for your love bug to enjoy. I also have two dogs (one large, one small) and a cat to keep your fur baby company! If necessary, I have four bedrooms to keep the animals separated.

I regularly care for my sisters dog and 2 cats while she is out of town, maintaining their normal routines and care.

I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, I treat every animal as if they are my own while providing photo and text updates so you can feel confident while you’re away!😊 Currently I am the office manager for a primary care clinic in Covington, M-F I am available before work, on my lunch break, and after work for drop ins or dog walking. My weekends are always changing and very flexible.

About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds but specifically medium to larger dogs like labradors, huskies, and German shepherds. I have been dog sitting ever since I was 14. Family, friends, and others. I have experience in dog sitting, walking and running with them, feeding, and bathing them as well. I have helped take care of many puppies and senior dogs too! I am a college student so I am pretty much free anytime outside of class which is generally anytime before 9 and after 4. I have multiple breaks throughout the day though, so I can walk, feed, or just check in on the pups when needed. I usually just ask how my clients interact with their dogs and do the same. Like where the dogs are allowed to go in the house or outside of it, any command words that they use often, how often they need exercise, etc. I have a lot of experience with different dogs and different dog owners so it looks different depending on the household.

About: I’ve always believed pets have a lot to say—you just have to know how to listen! 🐾 I’m great with puppies and can help with potty training, routines, and all those adorable (and sometimes mischievous!) puppy moments. I’m also really good at reading pet body language and picking up on subtle signs of stress, anxiety, or resource guarding, which helps me keep everyone happy, comfortable, and safe. I’m comfortable caring for senior and special-needs pets too, including giving oral medications, topical treatments. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a couch-loving senior, or somewhere in between, I’ll give them plenty of love, patience, attention, and belly rubs along the way! ❤️🐶 I’m an early riser and a stay-at-home mom, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. 🐾 I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, and plenty of cuddles. I love starting my mornings with the pups and making sure they get the care, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. My schedule also allows me to be flexible with drop-ins and accommodate your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. ❤️🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re part of the family and take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and cuddles. For in-home visits, I respect your home and your pet’s routine—following feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I’m also attentive to body language and behavior, so I can recognize when a pet is nervous, stressed, or needs a little extra space. My goal is simple: you should feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️🐶🐱

About: Patience and empathy are a major part of my approach to animals in general. I have realized that these beautiful creatures respond well to me because my love does not come with any strings. I have a Jack Russell Terrier named Kameha and a cat named Sushi. They are my world. Sushi's mother was a stray cat and not in good shape. I helped her heal and she ended having Sushi and several other kittens. Kameha was rescued from a bad home and she had worms as a puppy. Now she is full of life. My values include but are not limited to: safety, integrity, responsibility, respect, and dependability. I am entrepreneur and full time father and I am looking for supplemental income. Thank you for your time and consideration.

About: I grew up on a farm, had lots of dogs, cats, and all sorts of other animals to care for. As an adult, I’ve had quite a few cats, and I’m the current owner of three small dogs. I am currently working from home. Travel once a month. So I have plenty of time to check on the babies, play with them outside, and give them occasional treats. I have a fenced in yard that is designed for small dogs, a large dog would likely jump over. But it works great for the small dogs, plenty of shade, plenty of grass. And in the house, I have an abundance of pet beds, and blankies.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them goes beyond just “watching dogs” for me! I spent nearly a year working at a doggy daycare, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, as well as energy levels-from playful 4 month old puppies to sweet senior dogs who just need a little extra patience and care. I grew up around dachshunds and dobermans my whole life, and I now have my own Dalmatian that I rescued from illegal breeding. I understand both high-energy breeds and animals with unique personalities. My experience in pet sitting, dog behavior, proper socialization, and enrichment allows me to provide care that is attentive, structured, and tailored to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, walks, mental stimulation, or simply a calm and restful environment, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for and loved while you are away. As a college student out for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. Aside from a job commitment one weekend a month, my availability is open for almost anything-walks, drop-ins, and daycare! Your pets comfort and safety are always my #1 priority. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming home where your dog can feel right at home. I make sure they have both companionship and personal space when needed. I have a room in my home with a tall baby gate dedicated for dogs where they can decompress, and nothing will bother them if they want their own space. I also have a very playful and friendly Dalmatian, Siggy, who loves having company around the house. I will always supervise if Siggy would be around your dog, including a safe and proper introduction of the two dogs and continuously watching them when they would be playing.

I highly recommend Tyler! He was very responsible, kind, communicative, and trustworthy. He came to my house every day to walk my dog, spend time with him, and play with him. He took excellent care of my dog and treated him with so much care and attention. He also sent me pictures and videos every day, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to see how happy my dog was. He communicated very well throughout the entire time, and I always felt that my dog was in great hands. I would definitely trust him with my dog again!

Anna was wonderful with my dog Aurora. They went for a walk around my neighborhood. Aurora is a very large dog and Anna did a great job maintaining and handling her. Aurora is still smiling after her walk. I will definitely ask Anna to walk Aurora in the future.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Abita Springs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Abita Springs on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,081 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Abita Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Abita Springs. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Abita Springs.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Abita Springs. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
