House Sitting in Addis

“Nick watched our 2 dogs and gecko for a few days and we had a great experience! He was so professional and very responsive while we were gone. The house and all the animals were very well taken care of and we would highly recommend Nick to anyone!”

“Sierra did a great job. She did leave the cat poop in a grocery bag for a few days so when we came in the house didnt smell great. Otherwise she kept me in the loop every day, took pictures & sent & kept the house clean. I will most definitely use her again.”

Suzanne A.

“Tenay was fantastic! She was available last minute and saved me from having to cancel my trip. The dogs were comfortable with her and she left my house in great shape. Thank you!”

Tricia S.

“We could not have been happier with our experience with Samantha! Since we were going away for a long trip out of the country we were a little nervous, of course, but those nerves disappeared right away because of the communication and updates we received. I’m pretty sure our pets were spoiled rotten! Our dog even missed Samantha, and keeps going to “her room” to nap. Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was 5 years old. I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years as a boarder before I permanently moved to Baton Rouge. I go to LSU and major in animal science. I have medicated and taken care of anxious/aggressive dogs. I am patient, gentle, and I take account that each pet is a family member to each owner. I am currently enrolled at LSU majoring in Animal science. I have wanted to foster or get a pet of my own since moving here but I have not been able to, so I decided to make my side hustle helping others with the things I love to do. I am available on weekdays and most weekends. Just message me ahead of time for weekends! I am easygoing and easy to communicate with. I have a fenced little yard and I enjoy walking around my gated neighborhood, so I will do so with your pet. I follow instructions well, I am aware each pet is different and have their own personality. I’m slow and a quick learner, since I have handled hundreds different dogs for a handful of years. If I am ever confused on an instruction my first instinct is to contact you to make sure and not just “assume”.

“Lyndsi was great! Punctual and went out of her way to make my pups feel comfortable in my absence. Even lending extra patience and care to help maintain cleanliness after puppy mishaps. Definitely grateful!”

“Chelsy was very communicative, was able to accommodate a extra night last minute and I had no worries while I was gone. I have 3 dogs, ages 7-14, with varying health issues and meds, Chelsy took care that all my instructions were followed. She had a extra challenge with it being NYE and one of my boys being terrified of loud noises (fireworks, storms, etc). Highly recommend and will use again!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of small and large animals my whole life. I enjoy helping animals get their exercise and going on walks. I’m able to care for both small and large dogs as well as cats. I have a very flexible schedule around my summer and school schedule as I am available during the day and nights to check on and care for your animals. I have all the accommodations for a your animals, a large backyard and big enough car to travel in as well. And access to dog parks as well.

About: Senior care, puppy care. I can do both! Bonus, if your dog likes to run, so do I! Medications no problem, clipping nails, no problem. I work full time, so I’m available evenings, nights, and weekends. I can house sit certain nights, can do drop ins any day of the week. I have worked with a variety of species. I have no issues with reptiles, rodents, amphibians, cats, and dogs etc. I am passionate about animal care.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I turned my lifelong passion for animals into my profession. As an incoming second-year veterinary student at LSU, caring for animals is more than just a job to me, it is truly what I love to do every day. I am passionate about creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment for every pet in my care and treating them with the same compassion and attention I would give my own animals. My veterinary training and hands on experience allow me to confidently care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring health concerns, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and providing attentive care for senior pets or animals needing extra support. I also understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive interactions when caring for puppies and high energy pets. Above all, I genuinely love building trust and connections with animals. Pet care is something I intentionally prioritize within my daily and weekly routine. While I do work part time in a large animal emergency hospital, caring for animals is my passion and an important part of my life. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure that every pet in my care receives the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I understand how important reliability and communication are when trusting someone with your pets, and I am committed to meeting each animal’s individual needs, whether that includes walks, playtime, medications, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship and comfort while you are away. Animals are truly a central part of my life, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, attention, and compassion that I give my own. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment where they feel secure and well cared for. I understand that every animal has different routines, personalities, and needs, so I make it a priority to provide individualized care tailored to each pet. Whether that includes playtime, exercise, medications, feeding schedules, enrichment, or simply companionship and affection. I strive to ensure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide dependable, attentive, and professional care so that both pets and owners can feel confident and at ease.

About: I have worked at a part-time doggy daycare and boarding facility for over a year now, gaining tons of experience with all kinds of different pups- low energy/high energy- super outgoing/anxious and much more since every fur baby is different from the next. I have taken many animal related college courses that have helped me gain much knowledge about dogs which is just as important as the hands on experience. I also have shadowed veterinarians at animal hospital clinics that’s going towards my vet assistant certification. And last but not least I have had pups of my own, 2 great danes growing up and now my own shelter pup😊. She’s my best friend/daughter/favorite person, I take pride that I take care of every pup the same way I’d want someone taking care of mine. I’m currently working part time but I am available before 12 pm on Sunday's, after 1 pm Monday through Wednesday and completely free Thursday through Saturday. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, and any special instructions. I provide a clean, safe environment and closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. With my hands-on experience working with dogs, animal care education, and veterinary shadowing experience, I am prepared to provide attentive and responsible care for pets of all ages. I have an extremely pet friendly female dog that can keep your pup entertained if needed. If not no worries, she is kennel trained and does doggie daycare at my job.

“Great sitter! Fast communication and replies! Took amazing care of my fur babies, sending me photos every day and updating me on their status. 100% will (and already have) book her again!”

“Lauren was so awesome and friendly, and my dog loved her visits! She gave us lots of updates while she and Rouge played and walked. She was also super flexible about what I needed and times. I will 100% use and recommend her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! Friends and family have trusted me with their animals when they‘ve gone out of town many times. I’m an Instructional Coach at a school in my district, so I won’t be home during the day unless it’s weekends or when I’m on break. During the summer though I’ll be home majority of the time. My sister lives with me and she has a dog, but they’re sweet and have their own room. I take care of pets by giving them food, water, and bathroom trips as often as needed. I also make sure to have play time with them, which is my favorite! I can make sure to give them any medicine or put them on a leash when going outside if that’s what you need.

“So this has been an unbelievable experience with Robin. We ran into some issues and wasn’t sure if we could keep our booking but Robin was more than willing to help us, strangers that she’s never met before! Not to mention how uneasy we felt about leaving our 4 month puppy who’s never socialized before with someone new! When we meet her that feeling went away immediately she slowly introduced her pup and cat to us and our puppy so he could warm up to them. We knew immediately we made the right choice and we will book her all the time from now on! Oh and she sends nothing but pup-dates and keeps in contact with you while caring for them! Robin is the sweetest person ever and very trustworthy. You won’t regret it!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets of all ages—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m also reliable, clean, and always make communication a priority. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits into my daily routine, because of that fact that i have a cat of my own right now. I have had numerous amounts of cats and dogs all my life, so i’ve never been without having to care for an animal everyday of my life. I treat every pet like family, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I stick closely to their routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they get the attention and care they deserve. My space is pet-safe and cozy, and when I’m in your home, I always respect it like it’s my own. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I’m an LSU graduate living in Baton Rouge. I volunteered at an animal shelter in New Jersey for 6 years, and for 5 months at CAA in Baton Rouge. I have the animal’s and your best interest involved. I have patience with dogs that need it, but can reinforce behaviors that you’ve already implemented. Because of my full time job, my schedule may vary week to week. Walks, playing, and some grooming are all apart of the service. Large dogs don’t intimidate me since I have a Great Dane Pit mix back home. At the end of the day, my goal is to make the owner and the pet happy with the services provided to and for them every week. I currently travel for work, but am based out of Baron Rouge. I’m available sporadically, but I’m usually available for 1-2 weeks at a time. I currently have 2 cats, no dogs, but grew up with them. I would prefer to know if pets are to be crated, favorite spots in the house, etc. Your home is your pet’s safe space, so I want to make sure I’m not intruding
