“Brianna has been great! She’s very responsive and communicates with us well. And she’s very good with our 9 month old German Shepherd, and quite forgiving since her puppy energy can make her a lot to handle. We’ve had an issue with her jumping, and Brianna reached out to us to help solve the issue. Highly recommend, and we will continue to use her as a dog walker while we’re here!”

About: I’ve been around and taken care of plenty of dogs since I was little. I certainly have the basic skills to feed, walk, and care for dogs. Ontop of that, I can give medication orally or though shots if needed while you’re away. I have had plenty of experience dealing with dogs and all that comes along with having one. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them and all that comes along with that! I have to clean up after my own dogs and make sure their basic needs are met everyday. This is a task I am responsible of to make sure they are kept happy and healthy! I take the dogs outside to the bathroom or to play as well as giving them water daily. Our yard is fenced in and the animals can not get out. Our dogs know better than to get into things but at time stuff does happen so I make sure nothing is being messed up or chewed into etc. I would do the same for your home just as if it were mine.
About: Hey y'all! I'm a Midwestern gal who has loved getting to know the pets of the deep south! I've been an animal lover my entire life. So, about 10 years ago, I started working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and it was the experience of a lifetime! It's easily the coolest job I've ever had. I've gotten to learn a lot about pet care. It's a special feeling to get to get to know and watch pups grow up. I worked under an animal behaviorist in DC for several months before ending up down here in the Bossier area! I’m looking forward to building another sweet community of pets🥰 At home I have an ancient pup named Bella! She is an 18 year old beagle who really just wants to hang out. Thankfully my schedule is very flexible to the needs of your pet! I have found that watching animals can be a really mutually beneficial activity. For example, watching someone’s pup gives me a good excuse to get out of the house and go on longer walks! I am always willing to locate nearby dog parks which can be fun spots for outings! Also happy to curl up on the couch and watch Netflix with your furball - whatever their energy is☺️ Additionally, I have ten years of professional experience as an animal caretaker.
“Emily is wonderful! She kept me updated on my pups health & wellness, I felt at ease on my trip knowing I had someone who genuinely cared for my dog in my absence. I would 100% book with Emily again! I HIGHLY recommend!! Thank you Emily!!”

I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed.

Our bearded dragon is a blast to feed and watch crawl all over the floor. My pets are not pets, they are family. The sleep in my bed and are treated like one of my kids. We love our animals so much when we my kids talk to them they call them bubba and sissy. I absolutely love being around animals.

About: Hello, my name is Caleb. I’m from Washington state and have lived in Bossier City about 10 years. My family has 2 dogs. Patchi is our papillon (13yrs old), and Paco, our tiny rescue (8yrs old) chihuahua from Mexico! While on vacation we stopped at a shelter to drop off food, and he ran up to me in the street. I knew from that first moment we had a bond, and one week later he came home with me. I have a love for dogs, and they usually warm up to me very quickly. I have experience with fostering smaller breeds. I also spent some time volunteering and cleaning at a local cat shelter. Looking forward to meeting and caring for pet. I am currently housesitting and pet sitting full-time. I service in the Shreveport, Bossier, Haughton, and Benton area. If you have any questions about scheduling just let me know. I am currently not boarding dogs at my home. I am available for checkins, walks, or house sittings. I always make sure I leave the house secured when I leave or step out. Making sure all doors are closed all the way and locked.
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I am a dog person, but I also like cats. I'm not an expert, but I have an interest in dog psychology, training and body language. I feel that most people forget that we are also mammals and instinctual beings. Just like children, you have to meet animals on their level as well, respectively. Someday I'd like to raise a variety of animals on a homestead of my own. I work for myself part-time cleaning houses, so I always get to make my own schedule. My calendar is by no means full, but I do have regular clients at different intervals. So, lots of free time to check in on your fur baby and drop off a little love while I'm at it. According to the client's wishes. It is their home and their rules. I live side by side with my dog. He follows my every step, always in the way, of course. Life is never boring with him though, he's even entertaining while he sleeps. 🐶(Snores, barks, whimpers, runs)
About: I enjoy pet sitting, and I love taking care of animals! I am the proud co-owner of two beautiful dogs: Sugar, a Blue Heeler/German Shepherd mix; and Millie, a Chihuahua. My passions outside of animal care include crochet, theatre, reading, and spending time with my family. I am looking forward to helping your fur babies and making friends with them! In addition, I hope to begin volunteering with local animal shelters in the Northwest Louisiana area. I will make sure your fur babies are given the love that they deserve. I can also help new pet owners understand their fur babies better. Thank you for your time! I am a college student, so I am generally available during weekends, holidays, and breaks. If your pet needs walking, however, I am able to balance my busy schedule to fit your pet’s unique needs. I will adhere very strictly to their walk, feeding, and/or potty schedule. I make sure that the dogs are fed and watered at the appropriate times and I am diligent about sending updates through the Rover app. Your animals will receive my full attention when they are in my care.
About: I’m a military member waiting to continue my training. I would love to spend my time playing and walking pets. I have had a dog since I was 5 years old and a cat since I was 7. I love all animals dearly. I worked through Rover at my last assignment as well! My week days are typically very free and I can be available on a moments notice. I can plan ahead to be available on weekends as well. I unfortunately cannot take animals into my home but promise to respect your home and your pets. All animals deserve a loving home and I would never want to disrupt that.

“Katie did a great job and the dogs really liked her. She sent several pictures and kept me well informed throughout the walk. We are looking forward to our next walk with her.”
