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.

I live in Broadmoor with a fenced in backyard. I have a 3 year old golden retriever that is playful and would love to have a friend!

About: I am a huge animal lover. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, a bearded dragon, a snail and a fish. I love to play fetch with my doggies and love on my kitties. 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. I know how it is to be away from home and wonder how my babies are doing or wish I was home to walk them or take them out to potty so I would love to help other pet owners and give them a piece of mind that their babies are in great hands!!!

About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!

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: What sets me apart is my rigorous attention to detail and a background in health and wellness. I understand that your pet’s health isn't just about feeding and walking; it’s about monitoring their well-being, strictly adhering to dietary or medication requirements, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. Whether it's managing complex care instructions or simply keeping a keen eye on their health and comfort, I bring a level of professionalism and vigilance that ensures your peace of mind while you are away. I also provide consistent photo/text updates so you have peace of mind while being away from your pets. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to be highly attentive and present throughout the day. This means I can offer your pet more companionship, frequent check-ins, and a stable routine that minimizes stress while you're away. Because my time is dedicated to being home-based, I can ensure your pet receives the extra playtime, consistent feeding times, and reliable care they deserve, giving you total peace of mind. While my home does not have a fenced-in yard, I am highly experienced in safely managing outdoor time using a leash to ensure your pet gets the necessary exercise and potty breaks in a secure, controlled manner. I am also comfortable with crating and strictly following your established house rules to maintain your pet's comfort and safety. Furthermore, I am completely flexible and happy to provide pet-sitting services directly in your home, allowing your pet to remain in their familiar environment, which is often the most stress-free experience for them. I do not have any animals currently of my own.
