“Chloe did a fantastic job with our cat and dog! She treated our home with so much respect, sent us countless pics and updates, and made us feel relaxed knowing our babies were in good hands. Would definitely have her back!”

“Sarah was fantastic- she was flexible and able to hop in with my pup at the last minute, was super responsive, and did a wonderful and respectful job taking care of my 16 year old dog with special needs. Strongly recommended”


About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

“Karlin took care of my dog after a bilateral TPLO surgery, only days after the operation. I had a scheduling conflict and had to be away for a few days and she stepped up and took care of my injured dog! She is very loving and kind to the pups and she was very communicative with me as well! So glad we found her!”


About: I've taken care of pets since I was 9, but have been doing pet care professionally for 17 years. Dogs big and small, cats, and guiena pigs. I have a few flexible jobs, so it's easy to rearrange my schedule to work with your needs. I'm available for daily walks or home stays. I have upon occasion taken care a dog at my apartment that was crate trained, but typically the need has been to stay at the home home of the pet to keep them in the environment they are used to.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments, including those with special needs like severe rain anxiety and seizure disorders. I’m very patient and attentive, providing calm reassurance during stressful moments. My active lifestyle and fully fenced yard mean dogs get plenty of exercise and safe playtime every day. I treat every dog like family, handling feeding, medications, and any special care with love and professionalism. You can trust me to keep your furry friend happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away. I receive my work schedule weekly, so as long as I know at least a week in advance, I can request off and be home full-time with your pet. I’m happy to plan around your booking so I can give your pet my full attention. I love being active and spending time with animals, so I make sure they get plenty of play, love, and care throughout the day. I am available any day of the week including weekends, like I said, as long as I know a week in advance to fix my work schedule. I am also available for overnight boarding. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and I’m always with them during outside time. Inside, I create a calm, cozy environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding schedules to preferred sleep spots to help them feel safe and secure. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.

“Maya was great with our young, big and energetic dog! She arrived on time, connected with our dog right away and took wonderful care of him for a few days and nights. Dog was happy and house was left clean 👍 I’d definitely recommend her and we’ll hire again.”


“Literally, Vanessa is incredible. I have extreme anxiety and she made me feel so comforted the entire time I was away. For once, I got to enjoy a vacation without constantly worrying about my fur babies! The house was exactly like I left it and my babies were happy. Thank you Vanessa :) can’t wait to reach out to you for our next vacation !”


“Dominique did an exceptional job house sitting my two large dogs for 3 nights. His communication was consistent and reliable. I appreciated his attention to detail for each dog and their unique quirks. My home was just how I left it upon my return. Water bowl was full and my pups were happy! I fully recommend Dominique and have already booked another sitting with him.”

“Grace was such an angel with our puppy. She sent pictures and Bodi updates throughout the day making us feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend her for anyone nervous about leaving their pets. She is the best and we will definitely be using her services again and again! ❤️”


“Rachelle was amazing! I originally booked her for two nights, but a snow storm delayed my return an additional 3 nights. She was accommodating by being understanding, kind & flexible, I’m not sure what I would have done had she not been willing to sit extra nights! She exercised my dog regularly, sent photos, was an excellent communicator & even let my winston sleep with her. I don’t leave my pup with just anyone and I will be asking for Rachelle’s help again. I highly recommend anyone who really loves their dog to use Rachelle!”


“Corinne was fantastic! We have 2 senior dogs and wanted to be sure they were in great hands during our long trip away. Corinne's background as a vet tech put us at ease when we booked, and she exceeded our expectations. Our pups were happy and enjoyed lots of snuggles and walks. She communicated quickly when she had a concern and got it addressed. We returned to a house that we think was cleaner than we left it, and to two smiling dogs. We will absolutely use Corinne again when we need help with our boys.”


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 taking care of pets since I was about 11. I’ve had many cats, dogs, rodents and reptiles in my care over the years, yours will be in good hands! Im full time in school right now so I am able to be home 4 pm-9 am to care for and entertain your fur baby. I have a fenced in backyard for supervised outside time. Plenty of cozy spaces for a little one to curl up or stretch out and relax. My home is very clean and I maintain a positive and stress free environment to keep your little one’s spirits high.

About: Hi there! My name is Callan and I’m going into my second year of veterinary school at St. George’s University. I have been a veterinary technician for the past three years (working in GP and Emergency) and before that I worked in a boarding facility throughout high school. I’m trust-worthy and skilled with any animal and any level of personality/attitude. I’m fear free certified, skilled in CPR, knowledgeable about any emergency, and I happen to adore every animal I come into contact with. I will only be available seasonally due to school, but I’ll be back soon enough! I’m trying to force myself to take a break this summer to reset my brain for school, so I have a completely open schedule! I have a dog of my own, and I take expert care of her daily. She loves walks and going to get pup cups! I prefer to care for pets in the client’s home mainly because my dog can be a little anxious/awkward around new animals, so I try to minimize those experiences for her. I care for any animal as if it were my own and try to keep the house as tidy as possible!

About: What makes my pet sitting service special is my experience with both puppies and senior pets. I use positive training methods to help puppies learn and grow, and I’m gentle and attentive with older pets to keep them comfortable. I’m also skilled in giving medications and handling special diets, so your pet will get the exact care they need. Whether you’re away for a short time or a long trip. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved! I'm currently a freelancer so I make my own schedule. I have the bandwidth within my life to make your pets a priority every day if need be! When caring for pets in your home or my own, I follow your routine closely to provide consistency and comfort. I make sure to stick to your pet’s feeding and exercise schedule and provide plenty of affection and companionship. I also handle any special instructions you provide, whether that’s administering medication, managing dietary needs, or just keeping your pet’s favorite toys and routines in place. Your pets safety and comfortability is my main priority!

“Carlos was a dream. Kind, communicative, flexible. I felt at ease that he was taking care of my best boy. There’s nothing better to know your baby is cared for while you’re away. Would definitely rebook if possible !”


About: My bond with animals is natural, cultivated through years of caring for everything from Hamsters to Bearded Dragons – I simply click with pets better. As an appointment-based freelancer, I am successfully able to integrate your pet's needs into my flexible schedule. I am able to decline jobs and accept jobs on a per job basis- ensuring reliable availability and consistent, dedicated attention for your beloved animals right when they need it. When caring for your pets in your home, I strictly follow the established schedule and environment for comfortable, consistent, personalized attention. I will always be respectful or your items and I encourage my clients to maintain cameras (if applicable) for peace of mind. Integrity is very important to me and I understand the leap of faith you are taking in allowing me to stay in your home. I will not dissapoint!

Lindsey P.
“I travel a lot back and forth to Texas and I have two pets that can’t come with me. I am grateful to have someone like Lindsey to take care of my Furbabies (Boots and Pelucha). I know I can count on her to love on them and care for them just as I would.

I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone that will play and nurture your pet/s just as you would.”

Cindy O.Star Sitter
“Cindy has dog sitter for my wife and I many times over the last 5 years. Duration has been between a quick visit to feed and let outside to coming over multiple times a day for a week when we were out of town. Cindy is great with animals and our late Luna (dog) really loved her. I would definitely recommend Cindy to take care of your pet(s) while you’re away. Either in a pinch or a scheduled trip, she has always been reliable and extremely pet friendly.”
