Dog Walkers in Avondale, LA

About: Hi! My name is Maggie, and I have over 5 years of experience working in animal welfare. During this time, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets of all kinds, including those with special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing the extra attention and care that pets with unique requirements may need. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or specialized care, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I work from home so I’m home all the time . They go out 3+ times a day have at least 2 meals a day playtime and extra lovins I kennel them at night. Any pay attention to there body language around other animals and new people . I’m very attentive. I give every pet extra time so they don’t feel too homesick

About: My family has had at least one dog in our house since I was born. Everybody in my family has dogs. I have a few family members that rely on me to help them with their dogs when they need it. Everyone in my family treats their pets like they are humans and I do just the same! I am currently in between jobs so I’m available pretty much whenever. I do have my own dog at home so I prefer to not stay somewhere for a long, extended period of time. I am pretty flexible with that though so just ask me and I’ll let you know if it’s doable! I have a fenced in yard. I have a 14 year old rescue that just mainly stays to herself. There is a 1 year old Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix now living here as well, under the care of someone else that’s not me, however she is very rambunctious with other dogs. I do not mind walking them around the neighborhood. In my family, we treat our dogs like they are humans and they are like our children!

About: Loving, reliable, skilled care for puppies and seniors alike. I’m good with giving them their medicine like pills or liquid. I can do basic training too It something nice for me to do seem I love animals and love seeing different animals that can be unique or special. Plus I like to have something to do on the weekends I keep them in my room with me or let them run around alittle bit in the house. If they are tired I would let them sleep on my bed

“Dennis is great!! Has always gone above and beyond in all that he does for us. I think my dog likes him more than me lol”

“Dani was great with my two cats and one dog. She was incredibly communicative and responsive. All my girls were happy and well fed when I returned from my trip. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat/dog sitter”

“I can’t recommend Cody enough. She is a pet charmer. My 2 dogs and cat warmed to her quickly, she is an excellent communicator, and has a gentle presence. My one dog was nervous and hid before the first walk. Cody spent 30 min gently coaxing her out. After the first walk, all 3 of my animals were comfortable and happy. She sat with them after every walk for extra minutes and shared great pics with me. I will always check her availability first in the future”

About: Hi there! I'm Dominique, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats.I grew up in a home full of pets, and from a young age I've been walking, bathing, and caring for animals with genuine love and respect. Both of my parents are animal lovers, and naturally so am I. I love them all; dogs, cats, reptiles and birds. Now based in New Orleans, I offer reliable and loving care for your pets while you're away. I just finished graduate school and am one happy teacher on Summer break, so my schedule is very flexible. 😀 I am available 5:30am-10:00pm I specialize in: -Overnight in-home care (your home) -Dog walking (early morning through evening) -Drop-in visits & playtime -Safe care for senior or special-needs pets Whether your pet loves energetic walks or quite cuddles, I tailor my care to their needs. Trust and safety are my top priorities, and I strive to create a calm, secure environment every time. I do keep my calendar updated! I look forward to hearing from you! 😀 I'm currently working part-time and a graduate student at Xavier University of LA. My coursework is not too arduous and has a very flexible class schedule which allows me more freedom to work and complete other obligations that I might have. Taking care of your pet would be not a problem, and it would be an honor to do so! :) I love building trust with pets by not jumping into situations or environments that might appear to be stressful to the pet. I am fine with a fenced-in backyard, and if the pet is not fully trained without a leash, I have no issues with putting a leash on. Also, if the pet needs to be crated, that is certainly not an issue as well. Trust and safety are important values to me, and is something that will continually be reinforced for not only your safety but for mine as well.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or following special routines, I go the extra mile so both pets and owners can relax. Pet care is built into my day—I start and end every day checking in on them. Walks, playtime, and feeding are part of my regular routine, not something I ‘fit in.’ I make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection every single day, just like I would with my own pet. In my home, pets get a safe, cozy space with plenty of love, play, and supervision. I follow their normal feeding and exercise schedule to keep them comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep things clean, and stick to any routines or instructions they provide—whether that’s walks, playtime, medications, or cuddle time. My goal is to make them feel secure and happy, wherever they are

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and my current dog is the center of my life. I’m hoping to pursue a career in dog training and I love spending time with dogs and doing fun activities with them. I’m currently working part time with a pretty flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to spend looking after and playing with your dogs! I have a fenced yard and a very well behaved dog that gets along well with other dogs. I am happy to crate for the dogs safety and I will keep a close eye on them when I am home.

“Dani & Leesi had a great walk with Danielle! Thanks so much for the last minute booking and being able to accommodate us. We will be booking again 😃”

“Thank you for taking great care of my old pup! Clara did a great job walking my dog, and paying extra attention to her hips so she wouldn't overdo it! My dog Arya instantly loved her as soon as they met. I hope to work with her again!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and I love meeting new puppies of all kinds. I’d rather hangout with my friends puppies than them🤣 I’ve worked with puppies in training to be service dogs, and I’ve helped train my own puppy! I love meeting new dogs, from little puppies to big adults! I will always make sure they’re safe and happy! I’m currently in school at Tulane but I have a car and would love to help in my free time. I work another job on the weekends, but I am willing to drive and work around my schedule to get to you! I have specific gaps in my schedule in the morning and afternoon during the week, but I can help clarify/ work things out if needed so feel free reach out! :) I currently live in a small apartment, but I have access to fenced in yards and would love to go on walks and runs with a potential dog! I have fostered 3 different dogs of all sizes so far, staying attentive and playing with them at all times. I’ve had a puppy for a few weeks and am able to do potty training, help with commands, medications, etc. i fostered an older dog who was reactive to other dogs and I was able to book a private space for her to run around by herself which I can totally do if necessary! I can also have a spa day with your doggy and give them a nice bath :)

About: I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats since I was 12 and have over 8 years of hands-on experience. I’ve grown up with four dogs of my own, so I understand the responsibility, patience, and attention pets require at every stage of life. Friends, neighbors, and family have consistently trusted me to walk, feed, administer medication when needed, and provide loving companionship while they’re away. I’m comfortable with different breeds, energy levels, and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and will always send updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands. I’m a Tulane student with a flexible schedule and am home the majority of the day. I only have class from 10am–12pm on weekdays, which allows me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, as well as weekends. Your pet will receive consistent attention and care. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with other responsible Tulane students who also have experience caring for animals. Our household is calm and respectful of routines, and we prioritize safety at all times. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are secure, maintain a tidy environment, and provide consistent supervision. I’m also comfortable crating if needed and sending regular photo updates for peace of mind.

About: Ive taken care of cats my entire life and I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14. I currently own a 4 year old foxhound that i walk 5 miles everyday. I have always had a love of animals since I was young and even worked for the Audubon Zoo for a summer. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all types and sizes. I’m currently taking 2 online classes for the summer and will be free everyday from 7am-5:30pm if I am not available I will update my profile. I have a friendly dog that loves to play with everyone but can respect other dogs and people’s boundaries. I am a calming presence to most animals not just dogs and cats but also exotic animals.

About: Taking care and meeting the sweetest, adorable, fun loving animals providing genuine care & quality time with them. Being a caregiver truly warms my heart I’m currently working remote and part time on the weekends. I’m available Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri from 10-6pm, on some occasional weekends I have availability Providing a comforting environment for the pet owner and their loving child to feel safe. I recommend meeting the owner & their child prior to scheduled appointment.

“Morgan was absolutely AMAZING. She went above and beyond to ensure my puppy was well taken of. This was my first time using rover and now I can most definitely say that it won’t be my last time now that I’ve found Morgan. My puppy absolutely loved her. If you’re in need to leave your dog/cat I 100% recommend Morgan.”

About: Throughout my life I have pet sat dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, and reptiles such as bearded dragons and currently work at a doggy daycare/vet. Not only do I have experience caring for animals in a home but I also have experience caring for animals at work and feeding and bathing/exercising them. I am a pretty busy gal but I still have time for your pets! I work Sunday through Monday either 8:30-5, 7:30-4 or 7-3:30. Im off on Feidays and Saturdays. I usually can provide services for your animal in the evenings/late afternoons and weekends. I enjoy providing daily exercise and snuggles. I have a fenced front yard, long concrete driveway perfect for running, and a fenced in backyard with a deck for animals that like to be outside but also need to be monitored. I also have 2 dog friendly dogs and a cat and 3 rats.

About: I grew up taking care of and living with different animals (dogs, horses, and cats), and it truly brings me joy. I love sharing my animals with others just as much as I enjoy having others share their animals with me! I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own, and I also have experience dog sitting overnight for many family and friends, ranging from 1 night stays to 2 week stays. I'm very active, so playing and walking/running with your dog will be fun for me and the dogs! But I also enjoy lounging and taking cat (and dog) naps too! I'm very organized, clean, and responsible. I'm currently a 4th year medical student and am looking to make some extra money before beginning my residency. I'm a medical student, so my schedule is pretty flexible on a day-to-day basis. I can stop by to quickly feed or let someone out, and I can also schedule larger blocks of time for walks, playing, or just spending time with your animals. I've found animals to be great study buddies :) I want to know how you and your pet interact, what they like, what they don't like, what their routines are, etc., so that I can make their time with me as close to what it would be like with you! If they sleep in bed with you every night, they'll sleep with me as well. If they always have a greenie after breakfast, I'll make sure we don't forget those. If they have to do some tricks or commands before a treat, I'll reinforce that too. I'll do my very best to treat your pets as you would.

“Wow! I am so impressed with Mimi! She is a doggie angel! I was soooo nervous on her first day walking my sweet Bowman. But she put all my fears to rest and sent me pics and a synopsis of his walks. She spends quality time and is very attentive to Bowman Thank you so much for taking care of our fur baby! We really appreciate you :-)”

“Julia was wonderful when caring for our dog Freya! Our girl is very shy and nervous around strangers and Julia helped her to feel more comfortable and less anxious. I appreciated the updates of how Freya was doing as well as the adorable pictures she sent! I will definitely recommend Julia to our friends and family and anyone in need of a reliable and professional pet sitter.”
