House Sitting in Avery Island

“Ashley was great with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and let me know when she was as my home and when she was leaving. She even gave them a bath and nail cutting.”

Leslie W.

“Danielle was attentive, kind and patient with my pups. I have an elderly dog and a rescue who is very skittish. Danielle took the time to make sure they were each comfortable and made sure to keep me updated while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

About: I have had many animals in my lifetime, starting from very young! I have had the honor of taking care of friends and family’s dogs/kitties for many years as well as having my own. I have really grown to love sitting and consider it a true passion! I currently work part-time and am in school, but I still have quite a lot of time on my hands which I would love to spend with animals! I am very gentle with dogs and cats alike. I can easily play and get them to be pretty comfortable with me quickly! I have never trained a dog, however, one of my close relatives is a dog trainer and I have watched her closely over the years!

“Mia is Wonderful, my babies love her and she kept us up to date while on vacation. Will rebook anytime!!”

“We needed a sitter to stay with our dog Milo for 4 days while we were recently out of town. Heidi was very professional when we met for our meet and greet. She was great about communicating with us while we were out of town and our dog absolutely loved her. I cannot say enough good things about our experience using Heidi and would recommend using her in the future.”

“We highly recommend Joselyn! She did a fantastic job house-sitting our elderly Wheaten Terrier over a long weekend. She was very communicative, sent photo updates and gave him tons of great care and attention. We will definitely request Joselyn again for our future dog-sitting needs!!”

About: Hello, Furbaby Parents!!! I love and treat my furbabies like human babies...and, to me, they are. A baby is a baby. They need love, nourishment, direction, and laughter and that is what your baby will get while at our home. 🐈🐕😍 I try to only keep 1 dog at a time, in addition to our 2. I find it helps ease any new pup's anxiety if only 1 new personality is added at a time...to our melting pot of permanent characters. Lol I know that it is difficult to leave your pet with someone new but I can promise you that they will be loved, cared for and treated with the utmost respect. And they will not be kept in a kennel unless specified by you! Our home will be their new vacation spot. I hope they love to play with cats! 🐈 All rates are negotiable depending upon the situation or circumstance. I'm here to help!! I am currently taking time off to stay at home so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I am available 7 days a week, anytime of day or night. I have a yard and 2 friendly pups to play with your baby. I also have kitties to keep your pup entertained. Nothing but excitement over here!

About: I have cared for animals my entire life, including a Labrador, several chihuahuas, and mixed breed cats. I have also volunteered at several animal shelters, working with dogs and cats of various sizes. I am fearless when it comes to cleaning up bathroom breaks and other various incidents. I love playing with animals and making sure that they get their daily dose of exercise, because it is just as important for them as it is for humans. I take great pleasure in helping those that are completely helpless without the kindness of people. I am an activist in the animal community, working with shelters to help them spread awareness about adoption and helping pets find their forever home. I have just moved to a new city, and freelance jobs like this are exactly what help me keep dinner on the table. Right now, I have more time than I know what to do with. I feed my own twice a day, and I have three with very different diets, and I clean out their litter boxes daily. Of course, pet care includes play time, which they receive daily through playing with teaser toys and doing tricks for treats--what few tricks they would learn! I can provide any and all specialized care because each animal is an individual and requires something different to live a healthy, happy life. I can take dogs on walks as often as needed and play with them to help release pent-up energy. I am meticulous about logging when I do what for each pet I am pet-sitting, and I am more than willing to share such a log with the owner if they would like.

About: Hi everyone. I'm just here to help! I have a 6-year-old son who is an animal lover as well! We don't mind helping out and meeting new faces! I am currently a stay-at-home mom so I am always home! ! My pets are like my children and my door is always open for more! I take care of my pets very well as I would like to think! I've had my pup for a few years now and they are both very happy!

About: I have over 20years of experience and have had fur babies since I was around 9 . I enjoyed every type of fur baby from little to big. I have assisted in training my own dog and any medical needs they have ! I'm here to put your worries aside that your fur baby is In safe hands . I am a full time nurse that see's patients at their home. I'm usually back at my home for 2pm on a weekdays. Full availability on weekends. I have a fenced in yard very spacious and variety of area to explore . I have one small dog that is friendly and ready for a playmate. My five year old is also a fur baby lover and would really enjoy it !

About: I've been taking care of both dogs and cats since I was about 4 years old, I've trained cats and dogs as well as provided care in their senior years. I'm pretty much available at all times. The only other thing I have to do is babysit, which I can move things around to make sure I can fulfill everyone's needs. I have multiple fur babies of my own, including 1 50 lb boxer mix, 2 50 lb husky mixes, 3 cats, and 3 kittens. I know how to take care of many different types of animals, and rest assured, they would be safe with me.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working in veterinary medicine for over 10 years and my passion for animals. I love them!! I am currently working full time but can provide care on the weekends and days that I am off. I am also willing to provide care on some weekdays as well if close to where I work. I care for my pets in my home by treating them as if they are my children. My fur babies are super spoiled. I have a fenced in yard and provide them with super quality care constantly especially with me working in veterinary medicine I am always on alert for any problems.

About: I take the time to observe and listen to what a pet is feeling. If he or she needs cuddles, I’m ready. If he or she is nervous I will respect the need for distance. I want your pet to feel comfortable with me. I have been taking care of animals my entire life and when I meet a new friend they usually sense that about me. I am currently working part-time. I get up very early in the morning to make sure all animal needs are met before I leave the house. Everyone gets their morning snuggles, outside time, treats, fresh water and clean areas. Then we chill for a bit. When I get home we all immediately go outside for an hour of play (sometimes more). I have a fenced yard that is great to run around in. If I am coming to your home I will play outside and inside, whichever is your preference. I offer snuggles, treats, toy/ball playing, clean up and lots of conversation to your pet.

About: Your furr baby is safe with me! A veterinary technician pet sitting is like having a pediatric nurse babysitting. I have always had a love for animals, but I began my career with animals at 18 as a bather/kennel tech for a groomer in Youngsville. I decided to take my passion further and worked along side some of the most amazing Veterinarian's. Due to losing my children's father, Justin, it has become challenging to find a job working with pets due to conflicting hours with my kids school. So now I am on my journey to opening up my very own boarding facility in memory of him and my dog, "Elsie", who I rescued when I first met Justin. She ironically passed away days after him. Your pet/s will be wagging with joy when you say my name to them. I am currently not working due to conflicting hours with my children's school schedule. Therefore, I am flexible with pet sitting hours outside of school pickup/drop off times. As a person who has worked in animal health for a long period of time, safety is my main priority when it comes to your pet. I have done it all, from bathing pets to assisting in surgery. Your pet will always be in safe hands with me.

About: I've had dogs of all sizes, cats and other animals since I was a little kid. I've had pet rats, chickens, guinea fowl, snakes and lizards. I've had diabetic and blind animals. You can rely on me for whatever you need! I'm completely comfortable giving medication and injections. If you have non traditional pets such as chicken, goats, snakes, lizards or birds, I can look after them also! I work full time days M-F and can only come before 8 and after 5. I'm completely free on weekends. I can stay overnight if it's not too far from work. I'm a forensic scientist and have great attention to detail. I have 3 acres on the bayou teche with 2 dogs, 5 cats, 40 chickens and 15 guinea fowl. It's not totally fenced. I can take dogs/cats here, but I would prefer for them to be comfortable in their own home unless they are okay with our menagerie. I have experience with various medications, injections and animals.

“Savanna was amazing. My dog doesn't like most people, but she took up with Savanna right away. Savanna was prompt, thorough, and so nice. She sent pics to make me feel close, and left my house tidy and organized. She is the best!”

“What a great experience. Was kept up to date on Zulu and his ability to fit in with their family. I definitely plan to use this sweet family in the future to keep my sweet baby”

About: I have always been a dog owner and lover. My husband, daughter and I have bought a house in Broussard where we have more space in our home and our yard for our fur babies. Honestly, I loved animals since I could remember. I have the best of both worlds with my American Bully(Thor) and my Shih Tzu(Chewbacca); they are best of friends. Many people are automatically nervous around Thor because he is mixed with pitbull, but it is all about how you raise your animals. He is a sweet-well-behaved-friendly pup. I love doggie cuddles and play dates. When I’m not working I go to the parks, go on Zen walks to surround them with other dogs, and play games with them in my backyard. From puppies small to large, young and old, I love and care from them all. ****more reviews in pictures**** Pet care is a full-time job for me since I work from home. From taking them out between 1 and 2 hours to walks around the block, feeding them, caring for them with cuddles at night, and ensuring they’re rested and ready to go again the next day, it’s an all-day affair. I love all dogs, and I’m happy to meet their needs. If it’s a cozy cuddle session with a low-maintenance walk, I’m all for it. Or, if it’s an energetic afternoon at the play park, where they can socialize with other puppies and have a fun run around the block, I’m totally up for that too!

About: I have worked with a wide variety of animals my entire life, and have never met one that didn’t like me. Recently, I have decided to take that skill and turn it into a business. Currently working part time as a pet sitter to make ends meet in college. I am taking web classes as of right now, so I can make time to care for your animals the way that they need to be. I establish a routine so that your pets know what to expect once I walk through the door. I will usually stay long enough to play with them and keep them company.

About: My dog lola, has problems so she takes medicine so she doesn’t have seizures. I give her joint medicine. She’s a cocker spaniel, and is 11 years old. I’m looking for a side job other then working at shucks. I love dogs/animals all together. I grew up taking care of lizards all the way up to snakes. I have a big back yard, fenced in. I have chickens and ducks but they can be saved up. I can throw balls, I live right by a park we can go for walks etc
