“Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!”

“Caroline was the consummate professional sitter for our recent vacation. I highly recommend her services. Caroline took great care of our pups in our home while we were gone, sending numerous pictures each day to let us know how they were doing. We could tell by their posture and demeanor they were happy and not stressed … which was our concern with leaving them with someone “new.” Caroline love the doggos and most importantly, they loved her! Additionally, Caroline took immaculate care of our home and had our place looking pristine upon our arrival home. I cannot be more pleased with her services! Use her!!! You won’t be disappointed!”


About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was 12, and I know how much you miss your pet while you are away. I’ll send you plenty of photos and videos, so you can see how your furry friend is doing. I live in an apartment complex close to City Park and would love to welcome your pet into my home. Dogs can enjoy regular walks in the park, along with plenty of playtime and attention. I’m also happy to visit your pet in your home if that’s where they feel most comfortable. I work from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., so I’m available in the afternoons and evenings. I’m free all day Friday through Sunday. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friend and making some fun memories together! 🐾 I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available on weekends and on weekdays after 2:30 p.m. During September, I teach on Wednesdays from 5–7 p.m., but I’m available before or after those hours. I’m free all day Friday through Sunday. I always follow each pet’s regular routine and their owner’s instructions carefully. I make sure pets feel safe and loved, while keeping their environment clean and secure.
About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.
“Natalie is FANTASTIC! We have booked with Natalie multiple times but this last one was a very long 11-night stay in our home, with our animals. She was really amazing and our kids loved their time with her. The daily updates and pictures were a huge bonus and gave us such a peaceful state of mind. Knowing our fur babies were doing so well allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every aspect of our vacation, entirely without worry. Aside from their care, there was added relief in knowing our home was also safe and secure. When we returned home, everything was clean and in order, leaving us to merely resume life as usual.”

About: I've taken care of pets (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits) since I was a youngster. Loving gentle care that is tailored to each pet's needs is what I strive to provide. I currently work part-time from home. So, my schedule is open for house sitting, walks, park visits, and fun activities w your furry friend/s. I provide walking, drop-in visits, and overnight care in your home. Each client and their pets get a custom plan of care that is tailored to your needs. I'm very detailed oriented and good w your instructions!

About: I've had dogs around me since I was 6 months old and have never met one I didn't love. My dad is a retired wildlife biologist that used to train bird dogs. The only stretch of time I haven't been caring for dogs was my 4 years in college and even then I found a way to dogsit for one of my professors. My current dog is a Malinois/Akita mix tripod that I fostered in his last round of heartworm treatment. I'm no stranger to wound care, meds, special needs, and potty cleaning. The most important thing a dog needs is consistency. If it matters to you, it matters to me. I currently do event bartending and gig work. My days tend to be largely free with plenty of available time to play, walk, or just hang out and love on them. Most importantly, I treat your home as if you were there everyday. I make every attempt to leave the house as I found it and to keep your pets on whatever schedule works for your life. I pay strict attention to any medication schedules or alone time limits. I also take excellent care of plants.
“Lucy did a great job! She stayed with our pups until we got home to make sure everything was ok. She did a great job tiring them out... And that is hard to do! Will definitely be using Lucy in the future!”

About: Hi! As a dog mom of 2 and cat mom to 1, I am used to walking, feeding, and playing with fur babies. Cuddles and play time are my specialty! Whether you have a puppy or senior dog, I will make sure your pets are well taken care of and treat them as if they were my own. I love to send photo updates of your fur babies so you have peace of mind that they are happy and well cared for. I’m currently taking a career break so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to spend lots of time with your fur babies! Whether you need an extended sitter, or just a few nights while your away, I am happy to take great care of your furry family members. When I care for pets in someone else’s home, I make safety and respect my top priorities. I follow all routines closely, double-check doors and gates, and keep everything clean and tidy. I’m mindful of your privacy and treat your home with care, so you can return to happy pets and a space just as you left it.
“Sloane is a wonderful dog sitter! Great communicator and I know my dogs and home are in good hands. They even remembered my Great Danes joint vitamins from months prior even tho I forgot to outline on the meds list”


About: Greetings! I live half a block from Cabrini Dog Park, so if you need a pup sitter, that’s a fun perk. (Park) I’m experienced with most animals, as I was raised on a farm with tons of pets, so I have no problem caring for all creatures, both big and small. (And a green thumb if needed). Let’s chat and see if I can make yours and your pet’s life a bit easier. 😊 😉😁😇 As a writer, I set my own hours, which means I have a flexible schedule that works around your pet’s needs — not the other way around. I recently moved back to Louisiana to reconnect with my roots, and I’m settled in with plenty of time to spare. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends — I can make it work.🐾🐾🐾🐾 I live alone with my one small pup, so your fur baby won’t be competing for attention — they’ll get my full focus. My home is quiet and calm, perfect for pets who prefer a low-key environment over a chaotic house full of other animals. My own dog is friendly and well-socialized, so introductions tend to go smoothly.
About: I specialize in one-on-one care for anxious, sensitive, and extra-affectionate pets who thrive with individualized attention. Whether your fur baby experiences separation anxiety, doesn’t do well around other animals, or simply needs extra love and reassurance, I provide a calm, comfortable home where they can feel safe and cared for. I’m a writer who works from home, lives alone, and **boards only one pet at a time.** That means no other animals, no children, and plenty of personalized attention for your baby throughout the day. Your fur baby can enjoy walks, playtime, belly rubs, couch cuddles, or simply having a comforting human nearby. I’ve always been an animal lover and find that time with them is as valuable to me, as it is to them. I spent four wonderful years with my sweet cat, Henry, and helped co-raise an adorable Goldendoodle, Paris, for three years before she moved away with her other pet parent. I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and Rover clients over the years. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your fur baby gets to be the center of attention! I’m affectionate, patient, dependable, and committed to making your pet feel as loved and comfortable as they would at home. I’m a full-time, stay-at-home writer, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your fur baby lots of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I love having a furry companion join me for my morning and evening walks. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my priority. I only board pets from one household at a time, so your fur baby gets plenty of individual attention and a calm, secure environment without unfamiliar pets coming and going. I have a large fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, and I’m also walking distance from a beautiful large park that’s perfect for longer walks and exploring. I have a dog crate available for crate-trained pups, and I’m happy to follow your usual feeding, walking, sleeping, and household routines so your pet feels as comfortable and at home as possible while you’re away.

About: I have one year of experience working at Pet Supermarket, where I worked around many different types of animals and gained hands-on experience caring for pets. I also helped wash dogs in the Doggy Wash station, so I’m comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy making sure pets feel safe, clean, comfortable, and cared for. I’m a Xavier student with a flexible schedule, and I’m able to come home between classes during my breaks to check on, walk, feed, or spend time with pets. I’m also available after classes during the week and have more open availability on weekends. I’m happy to work with each pet parent to create a routine that works best for their pet. I live in an apartment with plenty of safe outdoor areas nearby for walks and potty breaks. I always supervise pets, follow their normal routines, keep fresh water available, and make sure they’re comfortable and safe.
“Cortney is great! She is considerate, timely, professional - and she clearly loves animals. She's cared for my pet as well as my brother's pets (who live a few blocks away). We all really like her!”

“I am so happy with the care that Jan provided to my little Ruby. This is the first time I’ve left her alone for an entire week! It was important to me to have someone stay at my house with her while I was gone. Ruby is a shy puppy, and doesn’t go to people very easily yet. Jan was super patient with her and got her to warm up (pets, play, belly rubs, walks) He was also really patient with me and my separation anxiety from being away from my little girl lol. He sent me regular updates and photos. My house was also nice and clean when I got home (added bonus). I would absolutely recommend Jan for your pet care needs, and I will absolutely request him again, as long as he will have us!”

“My dog is often anxious, and Abby was so patient and kind in working to get him comfortable. After the initial meet and greet she was willing to do another drop in the day before I left so they could meet again, and it made a huge difference! She communicated well during the stay and I felt totally confident that she had everything under control. Thank you, Abby!”

The median cost per night for house sitting in Arabi is $45

Chloe was phenomenal. My boys are two big and rowdy Dalmatians and I was worried. Chloe reassured me and was willing to do a meet and greet AND come back for night time medicine. She sent us sooo many pictures and made me feel great about leaving my boys. Will definitely call her again! Thank you Chloe!!!

Caroline took such good care of our boy Saint! We were sent pictures and updates daily that kept us calm as he’s a little bit of a handful and hard to leave. It helped us relax and be able to enjoy our long vacation with ease. In addition, Caroline took such good care of our home and it was a pleasure to come home to the house in a better condition than we left it!!

Sheer magic! We had to leave for three days after moving to a new town, and Deana fully won over our sensitive girl. We came back to a tidy home and a happy dog. We’ve left out with other people before and she’s been clingy when we got home. Not this time - she was really happy to see us, but quickly turned her attention to other things. 🙏

Zoe is amazing! She’s super friendly, and knew the way to my girls’ hearts. She made sure to give them plenty of snuggles and made them feel comfortable even for the first time meeting them. She sent lots of updates and photos, which helped me overcome leaving them with someone new. I will definitely be reaching out to Zoe in the future for any sitting or drop in needs I have.

Caitlin stayed at our home to take care of our older dog for eight nights, and she did a five-star plus job. As always, she excelled at keeping us updated throughout her stay, which gave us total peace of mind. Our dog absolutely loves Caitlin and was completely comfortable with her the entire time. Caitlin also kept our gardens watered and feed the birds for us. We returned to find our house in excellent condition—cleaner than how we left it! We highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for top-tier care for their four-legged babies.
We had a great experience with Mackenzie! She communicated throughout the stay, left the house clean, and took such good care of my dog. She even treated him to a pup cup, his favorite. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book with her again!

Sarah is amazing… She walked in and could read the personalities of each one of our dogs within one minute of meeting them. She is clearly an animal lover and will take great care of your home and your pets. One of the best we’ve ever had! Thank you so much Sarah for watching our pups!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Arabi is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $65 per night. 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 794 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arabi. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arabi walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arabi maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arabi. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
