âChloe is the best. I had a change in plans and had to extend my trip and she agreed to stay longer with my babies. I never worried once about them. Amazing sitter!!â

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and even turtles since I was a kid. I'm an avid foster with the Louisiana SPCA. I've walked and socialized with dogs of all breeds, energy levels, and temperaments across the area. I enjoy exploring the colorful neighborhoods of New Orleans while caring for my four-legged companions. I jump at the opportunity to work on teaching and learning new tricks with them too. In my free time, I am a passionate circus artist, so I'm most happy when I'm juggling tennis balls, or using them for a game of fetch. I hope I can help care for your furry friends! I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample free time to care for pets of all kinds. With notice, I can be available any day of the week at any time. My experience with a variety of dogs and cats has helped me learn the skills to keep pets comfortable and safe. I have a fenced yard, and can easily crate your dogs if needed.
âRebooked Claire for a week with our girl who can be difficult due to her fear of new people. She was cuddling with Claire and begging her for pets just a few days in because of Claireâs patience and dedication to her care. Weâre so glad to have found her!â

About: I have grown up around dogs and have experience with many breeds. When my family goes out of town I always dog sit for them. I am currently an online student at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette while living home. In my house we have three cats two male and a female. When I am in a clients home, I will respect their space and also make sure the fur baby is given everything they need from me.
About: I currently have a 17year old Yorkie and my 14 year old Maltese just passed away in February. I can provide top tier care for your baby. I have plenty of time to care for your pups! I am available any day or anytime of the week. I specialize in walking, playtime, meals, in home sitting or care, runs to the dog store for pups needs, vet visits, and rides to the groomer (or I can bathe them). I keep my Yorkie in my home. He can still jump, hop, skip, run, and play at 17. We don't have a fenced yard at the moment, but I take him to the park often for play. We walk often for excercise. He definitely eats very well! I can easily take your pup to the park, crate them, let them out in your back yard, and make sure your pups have food and water.
âDominique completed his second house sit for my two pups (6 nights) and we continue to endorse him as a qualified / reliable sitter! Communication again proved to be consistent. Water bowls were full and my house was just how I left it. My large dogs are prone to acting out if they do not get enough attention (especially over long periods). It was great coming home and not seeing any indication of unsatisfied pups. Fully recommend!â

âAdam was the best! My boys are super clingy and he gave them both attention. He also took the laundry back and did it all and left the house cleaner than when I left. He will definitely be a go to sitter for me.â

âAziz has been amazing on every front. When I needed a pet sitter with almost zero notice, he was at my house the next day. He was flexible with timing, always responsive, and kept me up to date. My dogs loved spending time with him and were all over him. He took great care of my house, too. Heâs a smart, reliable, and compassionate sitter who I will ABSOLUTELY use again.â
About: Greetings, yâall! My name is Ashley, and Iâm a public health graduate student. I am originally from the east coast (Maryland, New Jersey, Philly, NYC), and Iâm a recent transplant from the southwest (Austin, TX). Iâm currently working remotely and attending my Master of Public Health classes online so I have open availability to care for your pets while youâre away. I want to house and pet sit because we love to help people, their pet family members and their plants. I have my own âdoghterâ named ZoĂŤ, a 9-year-old black Lab that I rescued at 8 weeks old. When I decided to start planning to move abroad, I learned how house and pet sitting could allow me to have flexibility and new adventures as I travel internationally. As I prepare to move forward beyond the borders of the United States, I am new to exploring this platform through house sits in the city where I currently live. I want to pet sit in my own neighborhood because Iâm accumulating reviews so that I can facilitate my move abroad where I plan to go to school, work remotely and house sit internationally. Since I'm planning to leave eventually, I have reduced the size of my container garden so I'm excited to have some houseplants and gardens that I will be able to tend.
âGrace 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! â¤ď¸â

About: Iâve taken care of dogs for my entire life and I also am the dog mom, three dog babies. When I have family and friends, who need a dog sitter, Iâm the first person they think of. I am a dog mom so I have a morning and afternoon routine already for me and my pups. if I am caring for another dog, I will implement them into my schedule. I give each dog their own feeding space. Based off of the dog, I would probably feed them in their crate, or feed them with the other dogs. I also monitor play time.
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.

âChandler is amazing. This is my first time using Rover and I couldnât have asked for a better experience. Chandler was thoughtful and thorough, sending me pictures, asking questions and keeping me updated with everything going on . You can tell by the pics that both my puppy and Chandler really enjoyed each other. I will definitely recommend her to any and everyone. Thank you Chandler for having a fun weekend with my little puppy Luna. ?â

Part time freelance worker who does gig work, moving, construction, kitchen work, cleaning... etc in short i am an artist with a very flexible schedule Very nurturing and able to accommodate to pet's unique needs and a very engaging individual who likes to run walk give tummy rubs, patient, able to help soothe and calm skittish or timid pets.
About: As a passionate and experienced pet sitter, I bring a unique blend of reliability, empathy, and expertise to every pet I care for. I understand that your pet is a beloved member of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention as I would my own. With a strong background in pet care, from managing feeding schedules to providing mental and physical stimulation, I ensure each petâs needs are fully met. My flexible approach allows me to adapt to different temperaments and requirements, whether for a high-energy pup, a shy cat, or a pet needing special care. Choosing me means peace of mind for you and a safe, joyful experience for your petâbecause their happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, thoughtfully woven into each part of my day to ensure that every pet I look after receives the attention and care they deserve. My mornings begin with feedings, refreshing water bowls, and a bit of playtime to start each petâs day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I check in regularly to ensure their needs are met, adjusting my schedule for specific care requirements like medication, exercise, or one-on-one attention. Evening routines often include another feeding, a final check-in, and a cozy wind-down to help them feel safe and secure before bedtime. This routine isnât just about tasks; itâs about creating a steady rhythm that pets find comforting, reinforcing a bond of trust and familiarity with each pet in my care. When caring for pets in my home or while pet sitting in another personâs home, I prioritize creating a familiar, comforting environment tailored to each animalâs needs. At home, I maintain a designated pet-friendly area stocked with essentials like food, toys, and a cozy rest space, ensuring pets feel secure and relaxed. In a client's home, I adhere to the petâs established routines and preferences, whether itâs feeding schedules, walking times, or play habits, to minimize stress and maintain consistency. Iâm vigilant about safety, cleanliness, and any specific care instructions provided by the petâs owner, adapting to each petâs unique personalityâwhether that means extra play for an energetic pup or gentle companionship for a shy cat. This approach allows pets to feel loved and cared for in a setting that feels just like home, whether itâs mine or theirs.
âCarlos was amazing with Bodhi! From the moment I arrived home, it was clear Bodhi loved himâhe ran straight downstairs to greet Carlos like they were lifelong friends. Itâs so comforting to know my dog was in such caring and attentive hands. Carlos went above and beyond, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter. Thank you, Carlos, for taking such great care of Bodhi!â

âMaya 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 đ Iâd definitely recommend her and weâll hire again.â

âKailey was AMAZING and I will 100% hire her again! She took SUCH great care of my two cats (one needing medicine and fluids) and was great about communicating with me!! I returned to two happy and healthy cats and a very clean house! 100% recommend!â
