“She was extremely detail oriented and followed all rules or requests. She was very punctual and communicative. I thoroughly enjoyed the service and I believe my puppy did as well. I would highly recommend booking and look forward to our next service.”
About: Hi! I have previously done Rover and found so much joy in it. I am a huge animal lover. My father breeds golden doodles so I have experience caring for puppies. I have a 3-legged cat named Shanks who is my best friend. My cat was hit by a car and was the oldest cat in the humane society, left with a broken leg. Now Shanks is missing a leg but is the most spoiled rotten cat! I am very empathetic towards animals and have lots of experience with big and small dogs. I can’t wait to get to meet your babies! I am currently working at a hospital full time. But I enjoy getting up early for morning walks. I am open M-F mornings as well as the afternoons after 5. Weekends I am usually available all day. I care for my pets by giving them all of my attention. I have a disabled cat who I have helped him meet some of his needs. He has a litter robot, automatic foot, and water bowl. This is to track his health and ensure he is hydrated. He has lots of toys that keep him active. I take him on walks in his stroller. He has a cat tree to sleep and hide in. He gets wet food every so often to also help with hydration. My cats health is my main priority.
“Chloe was wonderful! She was quick to respond to messages, arrived on time, was so caring and sweet to our puppy, and respectful of our space! I would absolutely recommend her and would book again without any hesitation! Thank you Chloe for keeping our pup company and giving her lots of love!”
About: I previously dog sat over the weekend with my sister using Rover. I loved the experience and am eagerly awaiting to meet new pets! I have pet sat both dogs and cats for friends over the years. Feeding them, taking them on walks, and generally socializing with them while their owner is away for work or vacation. I have free roam rabbit and have taken care of various small animals since I was young. I am always patient and gentle with animals, and love giving pets and cuddles when accepted by the animal. I recently moved back to New Orleans and currently do not have a regular job. I have completely open availability to meet pets in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. I allow pets time and space to get to know me. This includes sitting the room together, speaking softly, and holding out my hand for sniffing. I am attentive to the pets boundaries and needs to provide the best care possible.
“Mimi went above and beyond for my kitties!! I had never left them alone before so I was definitely a needy pet parent. She calmed my nerves and made sure they were well taken care of. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
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.
“Eryn was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all our directions and kept us up to date the whole time. She was patient and loving with our crazy animals and we are so grateful to her. We will absolutely use her again!”
About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs since my early childhood. I currently operate a small dog walking business servicing the new orleans area. I currently plan on Pet walking and sitting on weekends and after 4pm on weekdays. I work full time and get off at 4pm which is right on time for walks, food and enrichment activities. I care for pets by making sure that they are consistently stimulated, whether that be music, petting, walks, conversation, play or mental enrichment. Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)
About: Been giving my love to animals since I was a little girl. Family have trusted me with providing what is necessary for our furry friends. I'm currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule, and have enough time watching over furry family. I can do frequent house visits if needed. I don't host animals in my home but and open to pet sit and house sit if needed. I can also do house visits if needed.
“So communicative and flexible when we needed someone to do a drop in last minute while we were out all day. Would highly recommend for your pet care needs. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life growing up! I got my first on cat (Katniss) as a freshman in college, and she is now 12 years old and thriving well! I got my first dog (Albus) the next year and he is a 106 pounds black lab who is also doing very well. I am a teacher so I am off from June-July 20 all day, every day. I can show up on short notice and stay for extended periods if needed! My schedule for the next 2 months is extremely flexible, and I’m willing to work with your schedule as well! I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I’m very experienced caring for multiple pets in a home environment. I have a condo in Metairie a block from the levee where I can take a dog on a good walk, and my parents house in mandeville with a fenced yard where pets can safely play and get fresh air. I can easily crate your dog or cat if needed, follow any specific feeding, medication, or routine instructions, and provide plenty of love, attention, and enrichment. Whether the service is at my home or yours, my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“I had a great experience with Leanne (drop-in visits, 2 cats). She provided consistent updates with prompt, reliable communication and left the house better than she found it. Will look to book her again in the future!”
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
About: I love animals❤️ while living on a farm I learned lots of dog training tips. I lenjoy bully breeds, cattle dogs, big and small dogs. I’m sure to make a connection with your fur baby. My services aren’t limited to dogs. I’ve owned fish, snakes, birds and lizards I’m active and energetic. I bartend concerts and events so I have an open availability. I run 4 miles a day and would love walking with your pup When I’m home the pets can have free range of the apartment. I prefer kennels for the times when I’m not home. There’s a dog area in the apartment complex. I live in an area with lots of dog parks and places to roam
“Absolutely great with our 2 dogs and 4 cats! One of our dogs is very anxious and usually takes a long time to be comfortable with people but she warmed up quickly and absolutely loved ShaeNoel during the visit! Received updates and pictures. Definitely rebooking!”
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I grew up taking care of two cats and one dog at the same time. I helped raise one gray tabby cat, and ,a couple years later, I also raised a black Labrador and blue healer mix puppy! I have bottle fed, cleaned litter boxes, stayed up with dogs and cats through thunder storms. I have given many baths and had to clean up various messes from both cats and dogs. Whatever the issue is, I have seen it. I am currently home for the summer from college, so I am available all day, every day to take care of your precious fur babies! I have a car so I have reliable transportation to come to your home. I know that pets are such a precious part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my very own.
“Olivia was amazing with my babies while I was out of town for a few days and made me feel at ease during a time that I would’ve been extremely worried and stressed. Would definitely recommend her services to know that your loved ones are safe and secure when you can’t be there.”
