About: Hey there! Thank you for visiting my profile. While I don’t have official education with animals, I have a strong love for all of them. I have always had to take care cats and dogs from childhood to now. I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and reliable for your fur babies. I do have a full time job but will typically have availability on the weekends and Mondays. I will do my best to meet your needs. I have a fenced in backyard and a doggy door so they can go in and out as they please. If your pet has the possibility of trying to dig and escape; the doggy door will be closed. I have a 3 year old female Pitt bull terrier mix named Gracie who loves to play! Your furbaby will be exhausted from a day of all play. I do have a Persian cat named Elsa but she can be separated if your pup isn’t cat friendly. I also have a 7 year old child that loves animals just as much as I do.

About: Hello, my name is Maya and I would be happy to help you with any pet needs you may have. I’ve pet sat in a wide range of settings as well as looked after many different breeds. I enjoy spending time with animals and being out in nature and I consider this arrangement to be less work and more fun. That being said, I understand the responsibility it takes to look after someone else’s pet and take great care in keeping you pets safe and happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I’m a self employed creative and have a very flexible schedule. I do work many side jobs so it is best to let me know a couple days to a week ahead of time. I cannot provide home services at this time unfortunately. My landlord won’t permit pets at my place. I would happily dog or cat sit at your home.

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 always loved being around animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I’ve looked after pets with different personalities and needs—some full of energy, others more laid-back—and I make sure to follow their routines so they feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, meals, playtime, or just hanging out, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and have the flexibility to give your pet attention, care, and playtime throughout my workday. I’m happy to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and secure. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets all the attention, care, and love they’re used to.

About: have over 20 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. My background includes working and volunteering with the SPCA, serving as a zoo docent, and handling a wide variety of animals at rescue centers—from exotic species like big cats, sloths, and monkeys to beloved household pets. As a retired school teacher, I bring patience, responsibility, and a focus on safety to every interaction. I believe in creating positive, loving, and fun experiences while always prioritizing the well-being of each animal in my care. I have extensive hands-on experience as both a dog owner and dog sitter, and I currently run my own small business, Swan’s Emergency Pet Care, which provides reliable, last-minute pet sitting and home care. I work from home, which allows me to provide round-the-clock care and attention to your pets. Because I’m home throughout the day and night, I can ensure your pet’s needs are met with consistency, safety, and plenty of love. Each pet has its own private space—no group boarding—so your puppy won’t be stressed by interacting with unfamiliar dogs. This one-on-one, personalized approach ensures a calm, safe, and loving environment with Central AC. Lots of playtime. I also have a large, fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. Each boarding stay includes the option of a morning walk, along with daily updates, videos, and pictures, so you’ll always know how your fur baby is doing. There is my baby OYA who stays with me in a separate unit with little no interaction. For in-home pet sitting or house sitting, I provide the same level of personalized care, treating your home and pets with the utmost respect and responsibility.

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.

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 3+ years to two pit bulls and a chihuahua (yes, they’re all best friends!). That mix alone has taught me patience, structure, and how to make sure every pup feels safe and loved. Beyond my own crew, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes for different families—turning daily walks, playtime, and even simple feedings into fun, stress-free experiences. I make it my goal to treat each dog like they’re part of the pack. Whether it’s snuggles, exercise, or just keeping routines consistent, I bring energy, reliability, and lots of love. Every day I fit my dogs into my routine with morning walks, feeding, and playtime before I head out. When I’m home, they get cuddle time, training refreshers, and another walk to burn energy. Balancing two pit bulls and a chihuahua keeps me consistent, patient, and organized—so caring for other dogs naturally fits right into my day. I always make sure food, toys, and spaces are safe for all sizes of dogs. Walks are done with secure leashes and harnesses, and I never take chances with off-leash time. At home, I keep routines structured, supervise play, and separate dogs if needed to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Safety is always my first priority, right alongside love and fun.

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 started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

About: I've been the designated pet and baby sitter for my circle of friends for over 10 years. Whether it's children or pets, I love to help care for the little ones in people's lives. As a first time user of Rover, I'm mostly looking to dip my toes in rather than dive fully in. I'm available for walks anytime after 4:30 pm during the week, fully avilable from morning to evening on weekends, and available for overnights on weekends. Currently not available for boarding as of yet. Working with children who require attentive supervision for over 7 years has given me skills to help me watch over your furry friends! I love to play and stay engaged with your animal to keep them from getting bored or worried without you. I've walked dogs of my own for over 7 years and enjoy doing the same for other dogs. Your dogs will have a safe and fun time by my side.

About: I always pay attention to the happiness and well being of animals. I trust myself to nuture and care for every cat and dog as if it were my own I grew up in a single parent home with two younger brothers , being the eldest, I knew about responsibility from a young age. Since then I've had the great fortune to travel across the US and the other magnificent countries. This has also allowed me to interact with fellow animal lovers and owners. It's great to be a part of Rover as I am a natural born animal lover who wants to keep your pet at ease and comfortable while away from their person. I studied massage therapy and the healing arts and practice with a highly flexible schedule and very reliable. I love applying my training to connect with the energy and temperament of every unique and beautiful animal I have the special opportunity to connect with and care for. I truly love animals! I must admit, while I love all animals, I especially love cats. It's important for me to know that your pets will be well loved, have their play time and keep their routines and are safe and happy while you are away. So please keep me informed to the special needs and the likes and the dislikes of your fur babies. Thanks for reading about my style and I wish you and your pet(s) the best! Please do not hesitate to ask me anything you may further want to know about me or especially do not be shy if you have a situation that is, for whatever reason, not so common. I'm very flexible and accomodating, as I said I'm nice but not shy so I'll be honest about whether or not I can accommodate unique situations. Thanks again! Jen I look forward to spending time with your pets and giving them the care and joy that you would if you were there. I I'm happy to be relied upon to give animals a happy and warm experience while away from their owners. I take notes of what the pet is used to and what they like. The things they enjoy, treats as well as activities. This is because being away from their people can cause stress and the things I mentioned create a feeling of safety for the pet. I also ask the owner what to expect from their pet, do they usually get anxiety, are they pretty good about being separated. It is just so I can mentally prepare a little plan of action in my mind to better soothe the pet while you are away. I am patient, loving and generous with attention and affection. This helps to better reinforce that they are safe and everything is ok. I take time to assure the pet they are ok, and associate my being there with positive things and actions. Sometimes just because a pet isn't showing obvious signs of dismay doesn't mean they aren't struggling with the absence of their human(s).
