“First time using Rover and Renee did not disappoint. She provided great communication every day and sent pictures of each drop-in visit. Krieger can be somewhat anxious in new situations, but he took to Renee immediately. She went above expectations by taking him for a walk (which he absolutely LOVES) each time she came over. You can tell by the pictures that he was quite content. Would definitely use Renee again in the future.”


About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

“Farah has such good energy and was so kind and gentle meeting Oakley for the first time! I feel very comfortable having her come and do drop in visits in my home! I’d definitely recommend her to anyone!”


About: I was always the one to take care of our families dogs while growing up, so I have a lot of experience! Smaller dogs, bigger dogs, senior dogs…does not matter to me! I am currently ending an Americorps term so I have all the time in the world to play with your pups! I also always appreciate a daily dose of serotonin :) I always make sure there are clear instructions or specifics provided by the client when watching their pups if necessary! A safe and trustful environment is crucial in this type of work, which is my number one priority. An attentive attitude is also crucial, especially when being in a clients home.

“Dara did a wonderful job with my elderly cat. Great communication with updates that were helpful, reassuring, and informative. I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting needs you might have!”


About: I’m KC, a lifelong animal-lover with specialized training, boundless energy, and a truly playful heart – consistently ready to cuddle, walk, and keep pets smiling! I seamlessly incorporate pet sitting into my daily routine: balancing remote work, errands, and consistent check-ins to ensure every furry friend feels safe and loved. I provide a calm, one-on-one environment, where your pup is my sole focus—no other dogs around. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is on-leash and closely supervised, ensuring a safe, happy stay.

About: From the time I could walk, I have brought home strays and raised multiple litters of dogs. I have a natural way with them and they tend to trust me easily. I treat all animals like they are my own children, so your fur baby would be in very good hands. I have never not had a dog at any point in my life and am confident in my abilities with everything that comes with having them. I’ve done dog/house sitting for a couple of years now and would like to start doing it full time! I have two dogs that I take care of daily and spend all of my spare time with. There is not a moment I don’t want to be with them! I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your baby to roam around and smell all the smells. I have a husky and a pitterrier that are sweet and playful, so they will have friends to play with!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 and I am going to vet school to become a veterinarian! I love animals and would love to spoil your animal with so much love! I currently work 6-2 Monday-Friday and get off for an hour for lunch, so I would be able to let out or give your animal plenty of attention throughout the day! I have a fenced in dog area and I have a very friendly miniature dachshund. I could also crate my dog or your animal if needed!

About: I have extensive experience in caring for animals of all species, breeds, sizes, ages, and abilities! I am a pet mother of myself with three small dogs and two ferrets- the oldest of which is my 16 year old dog Spot who I have raised since he was born. He is my pride and joy and the reason I have the passion for animals I do today! If you need experienced, caring, dependable pet care that will treat your babies as one of their own then please reach out to me! I look forward to meeting your four legged family members! I currently work a standard 40 hour a week, 9-5 job. I am happy to make almost anything you need work- just reach out to me! I live in a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment with a large fenced in yard. I do have the ability to completely section off one area of my house from the other, as my bedroom and living room have two separate entrances. With that being said, if your pets don’t get along with other animals I can guarantee they won’t interact with mine at all! I am diligent about keeping them separated if need be.

About: Hi, my name is Emma, I am 25 years old and I'm from south Louisiana, a huge dog lover, and I am in nursing school! My family and I have had dogs since I was 7 years old. I have two large, male dogs currently, but have also had two other senior dogs both of whom have since passed. Two of my dogs, I raised and trained from 8 weeks onward. I have been a pet sitter since I was 14 years old and have experience with overnight stays, however I am not comfortable with that until I have built a rapport with a client. Otherwise, I can do drop-in visits or daytime walks. I can accommodate your pup's medical needs by administration of medications or any other physical or mental needs (I once dog sat a dog that had an emotional support vacuum lol!) Additionally, I would not mind taxiing your pup to take them to a dog park or to their preferred walking spots. Please message me if you have any further questions! I am currently on summer break and unemployed, so my schedule is very flexible to help you meet your pet care needs. My availability is Monday-Sunday 9 AM-6 PM. I currently do not offer services in my home, I do not think it would meet the needs of any dog as I am staying in an apartment with minimal space for your pup to roam. However, I would be happy to accommodate their needs at your home or taxi your dog to any dog park or their preferred walking location!

I’m also very organized with my schedule so if you have any preferences or restrictions for your pets, please don’t hesitate to let me know! I live near Haydel‘s Bakery in Jefferson (such a plus right?). I have a house that has a fenced in backyard as well. Very safe and quiet neighborhood, love it!

About: I’ve loved animals pretty much my whole life. I got my first dog when I was 15 and I’ve been taking care of him ever since.

I’m a full time student, I go to school Tuesdays and Thursdays but I am available every other day of the week and I work from home. I will be providing a caring experience for each of the dogs.

I have family members who are also big animal people so there will be plenty of loving to go around.

“This is our second time booking Kayla. She was able to take wonderful care of our 2 cats while we were away for our honeymoon for 3 weeks. Although we hadn’t been away from the cats for such an extended period of time before, Kayla’s twice daily updates kept us at ease the entire time we were gone. We knew our boys were being well taken care of during our absence. She always goes above and beyond to tidy up our apartment before our return, and we would happily book her again!”

Da'Miya M.
“Since I have known Miya, she has always been a caring, compassionate, and responsible person. All the times she has watched my cat, she has gone above and beyond to make Shiloh comfortable and happy. She followed my schedule and restrictions perfectly, and Miya being detail-oriented helped me relax while I was away. She would be a great pet sitter for Rover!”

Kc S.
“KC is one of the most responsible, caring, and intuitive people I know—especially when it comes to animals. I’ve seen firsthand how attentive and gentle KC is with pets, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just being a calm presence, KC treats every animal like family. You can absolutely trust them to give your pet the same care and attention you would yourself.”


Lillian N.
“Absolutely blown away by Lillian! She took care of my two dogs—who are complete opposites in energy and have very specific care needs—with more attention, patience, and love than I could have ever hoped for. One of my pups is high-energy and needs constant stimulation, while the other is more low-key with some health quirks, and somehow Lillian managed to cater to both perfectly. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and the cutest photos that made me feel at ease while I was away. I never once had to worry—she clearly understood their routines, personalities, and quirks like she’d known them forever. Lillian went above and beyond in every way. I would hire her a hundred more times without hesitation. She’s not just a dog-sitter—she’s a dog whisperer, a professional, and a genuinely kind person who treats your pets like family. Don’t hesitate. Book her. You—and your pups—will be so glad you did!”
