About: I have been around animals my entire life and absolutely adore them. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their animals while away and I have plenty of experience feeding, walking, bathing, and playing with various types of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, horses, and birds. Currently I don’t own any pets of my own and I’m missing their company! I currently am working from home on a lenient schedule so I have plenty of time to care for your furry baby in any capacity. I am extremely respectful of personal belongings and routines if you’re in need of in home care for your animal. I love the outdoors so I’m more than willing to come scoop up your dog for a fun day outside!
About: I have been around all kinds of animals my whole life. Aside from raising and training my own dogs, I helped raise and train service dogs for over three years. These dogs have gone onto incredible careers helping others all over the country! I would love to help you and your furry friend :) I am a recent Tulane graduate! Currently working while I apply to PhD programs. Very flexible with reliable transportation around New Orleans. Located in Irish channel area. I have spent over 10 years caring for animals. In addition to my experience training service dogs, my mother has her own dog walking business which I assist with whenever I am home.
About: I've always loved animals and am naturally compassionate. While growing up my family had a small breed dog, and I personally owned hamsters and fish which I was the sole caretaker of. I am also a former Junior [Zoo] Keeper, which equipped me with reptile care experience. As an adult, I have had a German Shepherd, cats, and fish as well. I am adaptable and am confident in my ability to provide competent care for a wide variety of species. I am available for house sitting any days of the week, and available for drop-ins and walks after 5pm Mon-Fri and all throughout weekend days. I will be happy to abide by your house rules and pet care guidelines, respect your home, and give loving care to your animal(s). Don't shy away from being specific about your preferences
“Karen did a great job of taking care of our 17 year old cat who’s a picky eater and needs medication. It was a last min booking and she was quick to set up a meet and greet before we left town. She sent pictures and our kitty was very calm and content when we got home. Thank you so much!”
About: When your pets stay with me, they get my full attention. I'm currently freelancing and work mostly from home, besides the occasional meeting, in-person project, or event. I prefer to host one pet family at a time, so that I can give each client and crew my utmost effort, compassion, and care. I want to make sure your family members are thriving and living their best lives while you're away! I've cared for cats, dogs, and even turtles since I was a kid. I'm an avid foster with the Louisiana SPCA and have volunteered with animal welfare organizations across the state since I was a teenager. I've cared for almost every kind of dog: the chill seniors, the anxious rescues, and the gregarious goofballs. I enjoy exploring the colorful neighborhoods of New Orleans with a companion by my side. I also love teaching and learning new tricks, and I'm always down for an impromptu playtime. In my free time, I'm a passionate circus artist, so I'm usually juggling tennis balls when I'm not throwing them for fetch. I'm a lifelong New Orleanian, so I know all the coolest (literally) spots in town. Whether that's a long sniffy and shaded walk in City Park, or a breezy stroll along the lakefront, I make sure all of our adventures are catered to your pet's comfort and schedule. I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample free time to care for pets of all kinds. With enough notice, I can generally be available any day of the week at any time. I'm able to work mostly remotely, and I try to structure my days around hanging with your pets at your house or at mine. When I do have to leave pets alone, I make sure they're cozy with fresh food and water, toys, and plenty of napping space. I ask lots of questions during our meet-and-greets and our communications to ensure we're aligned on your family's needs schedule-wise, and so that I understand your pet's normal daily routine. I try to keep my calendar current, so you can see when I'm available and when I'm not, but reach out anytime! Your pet stays with me whether in your home or at my own. My flexible schedule allows me to hang out and check in often. I have reliable transportation that allows me to fetch the essentials and the luxuries, like treats. My home has a fenced yard, so there's plenty of space for secure outdoor activities. I also have a pool, so when it's hot, there's a place to cool off. If I'm boarding your pet, I'll follow your lead when it comes to swimming. If your dog loves water, we can swim together, and if they're not a swimmer, I'll make sure we stay dry. I'm always happy to share more details about our yard during our conversations or a meet-and-greet. On walks, we use the leashes and gear you provide and that your pet is familiar with. Alternatively, I can also bring my own leashes if you'd like. I follow your instructions around feeding, routine, and medications (I appreciate having your instructions written down). I refer to your preferred vet and pet hospital information. As a local New Orleanian, I'm resourceful and knowledgeable about the multitude of pet resources in town that help your pet stay healthy and happy, from clinics that offer free vaccines to local restaurants that are pup-friendly.
About: Ive pet sit since I was 14, both paid and unpaid, and I love it! I have experience with difficult dogs/cats (multiple high energy pups in one home) and a moody pet does not scare me off. Currently, 30 hours, of my week (~5hrs a day) is spent at my job at a cafe. Outside of that I can fit your fur baby into my schedule before or after work or on my off days! I never work late and my schedule is very flexible Being able to read the body language of your pup/kitty is a crucial skill that I have a lot of experience in. Being in your home, I know Im in their space
About: I’ve taken care of friends, neighbors and family’s dogs and cats over the years and absolutely love all animals! My dog Toby is my baby, so I definitely understand how to care for people’s pets like my own. Any special instructions or details will be handled carefully! I work part time in an office and part time from home so I have the flexibility to drop in and do walks in the middle of the day. I follow all care instructions to a tee. It’s important for your animal to feel as little disruption to their daily schedule as possible. I’m happy to do a meet and greet prior to booking!
“I messed up and left the chain hooked on the door so Jasmin couldn't get in. Fortunately, my cats had enough food and water to last until I got home. Jasmin was very kind about my mess up and still came to visit and pet the kitten through the crack in the front door!”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone. I am able to work remotely so care during the day is no issue. I live in an apartment in Meraux above my dad’s office, so while there’s no yard, we have plenty of space to get outside for walks. There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.
About: I've been caring for dogs ever since I could walk. I had my first dog at 2 and ever since then I've had a lot of other dogs from all various breeds and sizes. My Wife and I have a Golden Doodle now and she takes so much pampering and care. We've been caring for Animals ever since my youth and I love doing it. I work a part-time job so I have more then enough time to care for your pup and help with anything you need for your furry family member.! We have a small Golden Doodle who loves company and also we have a huge yard for the dogs to run around and play until they can't. We walk to the doggy park and we keep our dog inside as well as we would with any of our clients
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I’ve been a cat owner for over five years and have cared for my dog for the past three years, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I believe in keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care, especially during the early mornings and afternoons. I enjoy building pet visits into my daily routine, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I make it a priority to be dependable, follow each pet’s routine closely, and provide consistent, attentive care so they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I care for pets in both my own home and clients’ homes by prioritizing familiarity, routine, and comfort. In a client’s home, I follow their established schedule as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, litter box care, play, and any medications—so pets can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I keep things calm, clean, and consistent, and I always respect the home as if it were my own. When caring for pets in my own home, I create a safe, quiet, and supervised environment where they can feel settled and secure. I maintain structured routines for feeding, enrichment, and rest, and I ensure they have plenty of attention and stimulation based on their personality and needs. In both settings, I focus on reducing stress, building trust, and making sure each pet feels cared for, safe, and understood.
“Emily is amazing! She came to the rescue for my sweet pup Liam in such a short notice! You can tell she truly loves animals, I'd 100% recommend her! She stayed for the entire 30 minutes and walked my puppy and I just have zero complaints! Thank you emily!!”
About: I’ll treat your pet as if it were my own. I’ve always loved animals and believe they deserve the same care and attention as humans do... especially babies. Because that’s what they are, our babies! Whether it’s treats, cuddles, toys, or walks, our animals deserve the best that we can offer. More so because not every animal that can be a pet is lucky enough to have caring and loving owners. When their owner cannot be around, having someone there to care for them can go a long way. It shows that they are not forgotten and that they are loved; even in the absence of their owners. I know this from past experience. I would never leave my pet unattended for long periods of time, so that’s what I’m here for!
“Had great communication, sent pics, made sure my pups were happy, pottied in the yard, and had food and water. This was a last minute booking and she accommodated me and my pups very well. I will for sure use again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for most of my life. I love high energy animals and taking care of them. I grew up with a dog and cat I still have and care for and more recently I have been a volunteer at the Humane Society, I even ended up starting my own club of volunteers in high school. This role has equipped me with all sorts of animal care skills such as cleaning after them, bathing them, feeding them and administering medication, and making sure to provide lots of love and attention. I’ve always said that I’m not a dog or cat person when asked, but rather an animal person. I love animals and caring after them. I am a college student at Tulane University and I am currently home for the summer! I am available until June 22nd and have open availability all day every day until then. I have a fenced yard and two pets of my own that are both friendly so I am no stranger to spending time outdoors with animals or having playdates. I am more than happy to take pets to any appointments they may have and am able to administer medication if needed.
“Noah was great! Very communicative the entire time, so I knew the cats were safe and taken care of. If I ever need a sitter for my pups, I'll definitely reach out to him again!”

Caroline is absolutely amazing! She stopped by to let the dogs out and feed them, and even took the time to wash the dishes, which was not even part of her drop in. She always goes above and beyond, and it’s clear she genuinely cares. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my babies are in such good hands. I can’t recommend her enough!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! Deana is an absolute godsend!!! 🌟 I was so nervous that having a Rottweiler would make it tough to find the perfect person for drop-in visits, but she and Gabby clicked instantly! Deana handled feedings as well as morning brushings and evening walks perfectly for 3 days. She was incredibly punctual, reliable, and professional. The daily updates and fabulous pictures of Gabby kept me smiling the whole time and gave me total peace of mind. Thank you so much, Deana, for taking such amazing care of our girl! If you want the absolute best care for your dog, hire Deana! 🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Arabi is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,155 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Arabi. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Arabi choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Arabi with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
