Pet Sitting in Amite

About: I have grown up with dogs before I even had a conscious mind. I have loved dogs and animals in general my whole life. there is nothing more that I would like to do than make an animal feel taken care of. being always surrounded by animals at various ages has given me plenty of different experiences- for example, taking care of a dog with seizures, cancer, diabetes, and more. I have dealt with dogs with high anxiety and managing to keep them at a calm state but I have also dealt with dogs who have more aggression and have learned ways to calm them as well. I truly do have a love for animals beyond anything else. I genuinely enjoy any time I can get with them. there is a 100% guarantee that if there is an animal at someones house..I'm with it. I am looking forward to taking care of everyone's little animals (their children) and providing the best care not only for the pet in need but for the owner to feel reassured that their animal is in good hands. I am currently working four times a week but being able to take care of fur babies has been something I have been wanting to do for the longest time!! so although my schedule can be tight I'm willing to work around it when I can. I used to have three dogs in total in all different sizes. I took care of my dogs as if they were my literal children. at points they were probably too spoiled but I couldn't help it! I always made sure my dogs were fed and went out my way to find the best food that would suit their individual needs. two of my dogs were super anxious especially during any type of storm and I never turned them away, I was willing to do anything to make them feel safe. even if that meant sleeping on the floor or some nights not getting any sleep. more often than not I out my dogs first! one of my dogs loved walks so therefore I took him (and still take him) own a walk everyday and let him take as much time as he needs. I don't believe in hitting or yelling at any animal/using any form of aggression. I am a very empathetic and compassionate person. I am not quick to anger I'm only quick to solve whatever issue may be at hand. and my most important goal to create the best experience I can for the animals and owners.

“Loralei did drop in visits 2 x day for 5 days for my 3 pups . Charlie is not particularly fond of people and I was a little nervous about how he’d react but by the end of the second day she had won him over and he followed her outside along with the other 2. She also fed my fish and put bird seed in my feeder every morning. She communicated concerns and reassured me all was well . I recommend her and I will use her again in the future !”

“Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!”

About: I have had a wide variety of different types of pets throughout my life such as (snakes, hedgehogs, raccoons, pigs, chickens, etc.). Having learned to care for each and every one of them. Has provided me with substantial knowledge in how to deal with pets whether puppies or full grown large dog breeds. In 2024, I rescued my German shepherd. When we got him he was only 4 months old and in critical condition, suffering from starvation and diseases. Throughout my care I have been able to provide my dog a happy and healthy ongoing life. I’m a full-time college student however, I am currently on summer break and am available at your service 24/7 to provide the best pet care possible. I have several acres of land for your pet to play on as well as a pond for your baby to swim in! Along with 1 very friendly dog for your pup to play with. My yard is unfenced, so pups will be supervised when playing outside. I can crate your pup throughout the night if needed.

About: With over 7 years of hands-on experience and a lifelong love for animals, I bring genuine passion and reliability to every pet I care for. As a dedicated pet parent to two happy, well-loved dogs, I understand the importance of trust, safety, and personalized attention. I treat every pet like family—because that’s exactly what they deserve. As a self-employed bakery owner, I have the flexibility to make my own schedule—meaning I’m available any time of day to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening visits, I can adapt to meet your pet’s needs. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide loving care, and keep your home tidy—ensuring comfort, safety, happiness, and plenty of tail wags while you’re away.

“Catherine did a great job with my 3 cats, one who is old and on medication. I will definitely have Catherine take care of them again.”

“Sarah and her husband Russell (also a Rover sitter) both take care of my furbabies and are irreplaceable. They both know their likes and dislikes and give them so much attention. (Including Peyton, my cat and both of my fish) who aren't even on their list of babies to care for. They've even gone so far as to bring packages inside of my house, If I have a package arrive, they will haul it inside for me! Including heavy ones like a mattress and furniture. They go above and beyond the call of duty and they are more like extended family than sitters! I appreciate them and am so grateful to Rover for connecting me with such awesome people. I wouldn't trust my babies with anyone else.”

About: Hi there amazing pet parents! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Since I was a teenager, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Professionally, I’ve worked at several kennels, volunteered at Tangi Humane Society & been a foster mom for Cajun Tails Rescue, worked at Hammond Veterinary Services, and I’m currently with Hickory Small Animal Hospital as I am also pursuing veterinary technician license. I’m trained in pet CPR, administering medications and vaccines, and have experience with both energetic puppies and senior pets with special needs. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have three friendly fur babies of my own at home who love making new friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing them with the love and care they deserve! 💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—it’s something I’ve built my schedule around for years. Whether it’s morning walks, mealtime routines, training sessions, or evening playtime, caring for animals is second nature to me. Since I work in a veterinary setting and have pets of my own, I’m constantly engaged in caring for animals both professionally and personally. It’s not just a job for me—it’s a lifestyle I love and live every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like family—they have plenty of space to play, relax, and enjoy companionship with my own friendly dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. When caring for pets in your home, I work to maintain their normal routine to reduce stress while you’re away. I respect your space and make sure everything is clean and tidy when you return. I provide regular updates, photos, and am always just a message away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or specialized care, I tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals since I was a child. I used to bring home strays even though I would get in trouble for it. I’ve babysat dogs for friends and family in the past. I also used to be a dog groomer at Petsmart. One rainy morning on my way to work, I saw a chihuahua mix on the side of the road. I parked my car about 10 feet away from her. She was shaking and had a look of despair. I gently scooped her up and put her in my passenger seat. I noticed her leg was broken so I skipped work and took her to the vet. I took her home with me and cared for her until she healed. Today, she is the happiest and chunkiest chihuahua I’ve ever seen. She’s living her best life with my mom. I’m a mother of 2 but my babies are in daycare during the week. I do not work a full time job, I’m very flexible! For check ins: I will make sure your fur baby is fed. I will, of course, give lots of affection. Take them out on walks and let them explore. Make sure their area is clean and tidy.
