“She was fantastic in every way. Sydney was punctual, provided updates with photos, and my dogs kept looking for her after she left. It was fantastic to not have to worry about my house/dogs when I was out of town. I’ll definitely use her again if my clingy dogs didn’t scare her away. 🙂”
“Stephanie sat with my dog and cat for a weekend. She was absolutely AMAZING! She patiently accommodated all my requests and was attentive to all instructions I left regarding my home. And my babies just LOVED her. I will definitely reach out again!”
“This was our first time for Jaden to take care of our four legged crew. She was very accommodating with excellent communication. Our furbabies were of course happy to see us, but also acted as though we were coming home from any other Saturday outing and for me, that is the true test 😊”
“Anya is a pet lover/setter SUPREME. She followed every instruction and went far beyond our expectations in caring for our GSP Hans. We will absolutely use her whenever possible. She's a gem!!”
“Aaliyah is very sweet and trustworthy she stayed in our home to take care of my two labs. She was very sweet with my high anxiety, high energy, hundred pound baby 🥰 it can be very scary finding a new pet sitter to take care of your babies in your home Aaliyah was amazing sending pictures and giving me updates! I would highly recommend her to anybody!”
“Ava was amazing!!!!! Can’t say enough great things. She was responsive, clean, prompt, and most of all took wonderful care of our babies! She is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had!!!”
About: I have owned a dog pretty much my whole life and each one of them I have treated them with love and respect. I have also taken care of a dog for approximately 3 years, it was a Pitbull/Mastiff mix. She was a beauty, I tend to grow so much love toward pets when I meet them. I like to treat each and every pet as if they were my own. Just as I would like for someone to treat my pets with respect and a lot of love, I would do the same to your pets. I own two dogs and two Sulacatas, and a bearded dragon; they are very much loved by me, my partner, and my children. I hope to be able to spread the love with other pets. Thank you I am a substitute teacher so my availability is quite open. I am also currently go to school but it does not affect my ability to care for pets. I enjoy being active so I for in activities every chance I get. I have a fenced yard but my pets are indoor pets so they usually just go out for potty breaks and when I walk them around the block.
“Stephanie was phenomenal with taking care of our two dogs! She was vigilant and went the extra mile with everything. She also took really good care of our home. We highly recommend her and can’t thank her enough!”

I’m also available mornings and nights or whatever works for you:) I will make sure they go on plenty of walk and go outside. They also will get all the love and attention they need. I will also make sure they always have a source of water!
“Sydney was just the BEST! She was so knowledgeable and really took care of our Little Cooper. We loved everything about this sitter. She stayed on top of things to ensure he was safe and well taken care of at all times. Highly recommend this sitter.”
About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.
About: Thanks so much for giving my family the opportunity to be the “home away from home” for your precious pets! I am married with a 19 year old animal loving son (who pops in occasionally from college) and a husband that is in the medical field which is an added measure for health safety when dogs are staying at our home. We share our home with our two female Dachshunds that live for car rides. I am an active volunteer with the National Great Pyrenees Rescue and foster Great Pyrenees rescues so I am used to all types of behaviors/personalities with different dogs and helping them to all get along together under one roof, even if just temporarily. I have plenty of experience as well as good instincts and judgement where dogs are concerned; thanks to so many years of rescue work and a lifetime of having dogs in my home. I live in south Bossier in a small and quiet gated subdivision. I have 6 foot vinyl fencing around my backyard which provides a safe area for visiting dogs to be able to run around and play. We also have a small doggie door. My family does everything possible to make sure that every dog that comes to our home is comfortable and as happy as can be. They will get the run of the house and can lay/sleep anywhere that they want... just like our own dogs. We have plenty of toys, chews, and treats for our visiting dogs. At my house, we work together as a family to take the best care of your dogs because we know how much they mean to you- just like our dogs mean to us: they are our world! My husband is in the medical field so he is able to assist with any special needs that a visiting dog may have. I am a stay-at-home mom to a teenage son which means I have a very flexible schedule and I am home with dogs most of the day. Safety is always my main priority when I am with your dogs. Whether your dog is staying at my house or I am doing drop-in visits at your house, I am focused on their safety.
About: What sets me apart is my rigorous attention to detail and a background in health and wellness. I understand that your pet’s health isn't just about feeding and walking; it’s about monitoring their well-being, strictly adhering to dietary or medication requirements, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. Whether it's managing complex care instructions or simply keeping a keen eye on their health and comfort, I bring a level of professionalism and vigilance that ensures your peace of mind while you are away. I also provide consistent photo/text updates so you have peace of mind while being away from your pets. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to be highly attentive and present throughout the day. This means I can offer your pet more companionship, frequent check-ins, and a stable routine that minimizes stress while you're away. Because my time is dedicated to being home-based, I can ensure your pet receives the extra playtime, consistent feeding times, and reliable care they deserve, giving you total peace of mind. While my home does not have a fenced-in yard, I am highly experienced in safely managing outdoor time using a leash to ensure your pet gets the necessary exercise and potty breaks in a secure, controlled manner. I am also comfortable with crating and strictly following your established house rules to maintain your pet's comfort and safety. Furthermore, I am completely flexible and happy to provide pet-sitting services directly in your home, allowing your pet to remain in their familiar environment, which is often the most stress-free experience for them. I do not have any animals currently of my own.
About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity

About: I've been rescuing dogs and cats and anything else I could get my hands on since I was a child. I worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and a shelter for 4 years. I've fostered many dogs and cats for local rescue organizations and have lots of experience with animal care and behavior. I provide a happy, home environment for your pets at an affordable rate! I will keep you updated with lots of photos and videos every day. My family loves all breeds and sizes of dogs. When they are with us they are family! Our home is their home. We also keep small, caged animals..ferrets, Guinea pigs, etc. Many vet references and personal references available to you upon request. Thank you for your consideration! I always have plenty of time and love to give to your furry family members while you relax and enjoy your time away from home. I have a secured fenced yard for play time and potty time. They will never be left unattended outside. They will have free roam in my pet friendly home or they can have their own quiet kennel space if needed.
About: Hello! I have always been a huge animal lover and have cared for many in my past and currently have 4 of my own! I have grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have three dogs of my own, Stormie, Maisy, and Lola, and one cat, Bean. They’re my absolute world and I could not imagine my life without them! I am available to house sit, check on your babies, walk them, and spend time with them. My schedule is quite flexible after 5:00 pm during the week and I am available most weekends, so just let me know what times and dates are needed and I can more than likely make it work! I cannot wait to meet your sweet babies! I’m currently working full-time from 8 am until 5:00 pm during the week. I can make sure to come check on your babies before I begin work, after work, and however many other times needed into the evening! I am available most weekends and holidays, as well! If you live nearby, I can also come check on your babies during my lunch break! I am highly experienced with taking care of animals of all ages, breeds, and size. I always ensure each animal has everything it needs (and wants 😊) while they’re in my care and of course give them all of the love and pets they want! I’m always observant and aware of an animal’s behavior in order to meet their needs but also know when to respect their space if they’re a bit shy!
“House sitter, pet sitter, professional pet photographer- I think my dog can’t wait for me to leave again. Serena was great. She went above and beyond. I think my dog’s vacation was as fun for her as mine was for me.”
About: I love working and meeting new dogs. Being able to provide one-on-one time with your fur baby is important to me and I look forward to forming new bonds. I have time throughout the day and evening for drop ins and walks. Ensuring your pet has attention and is loved is the number one priority for all visits. When caring for a pet in a client’s home I like to ensure the pet has an enjoyable time. I am flexible to do walks and rubs to keep your pooch smiling.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Barksdale Air Force Base
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Amelia, received. From start to finish, the communication was excellent. I always felt up to date and at ease. She stayed at my home and left everything spotless, which I truly appreciated. Most importantly, Amelia was clearly loved and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, respectful, and caring sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Barksdale Air Force Base walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Barksdale Air Force Base maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Barksdale Air Force Base choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
