About: I’ve raised my dog, Tino, since I’ve been 10! I’ve gone through all the stages from a pup to now a senior dog. I am also currently studying to become a DVM so I love all furry friends! :) I have 100+ volunteer hours at animal shelters and I currently work part time at a pet boarding facility. I’m free mostly every weekday and anytime on the weekends. I usually take pets out 3-4 times a day for potty breaks. I love every pup size and I’ll enjoy snuggling with them or running around with them! I have a fenced backyard with a super chill senior dog that would love to meet other animals. We have a very calm home so no loud noises or disruptions. I also have a crate for small to medium dogs if needed.
About: I live alone with no kids or other pets, which means your dog will enjoy a calm, quiet environment with my full attention. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to provide care, companionship, and supervision. I have a fenced-in backyard for safe play and outdoor time. As a lifelong animal lover and former German Shepherd owner, I understand the joy and responsibility of pet care—my favorite part was the bond we built through daily attention and affection. I bring that same love and dedication to every dog I welcome into my home. I have a very flexible routine since I work from home and live in a walkable neighborhood. I love taking walks throughout the day, which makes it easy and natural to include your dog in my daily schedule. Whether it’s morning strolls, midday potty breaks, or evening wind-down walks, your dog will fit seamlessly into my routine and get plenty of attention and exercise. In my home, your dog will be cared for with close attention to their specific routines and needs. I’ll follow your instructions exactly—whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication, crate training, or preferred walking times. I understand how important consistency is, especially when your dog is adjusting to a new environment. With a fenced-in backyard, your pup will have a safe space to play and explore freely. Since I work from home, I can easily adapt my day to match your dog’s routine and ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for throughout their stay.
About: I am a Least intrusive minimally aversive dog trainer, and AKC evaluator. I foster with multiple rescues. I have experience working with all types of dogs. I am very knowledgeable on dog body language, behavior, and genetics. You can also visit us on instagram for pictures of past and current boarding pups, and don’t forget to send us a message on Instagram with the word “Rover” to unlock an exclusive discount Avalon.k9s I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself, I spend my free time training dogs, and when I’m busy I’m also training dogs. I have a whole room in my house dedicated to dogs, but they’re welcome anywhere in the house, I have a fenced in yard and I’m located close to some lakes. I have tons of unique enrichment opportunities for your pups, including things like snuffle mats, puzzles, kongs, and more. My house is puppy proofed, because I often foster and train dogs! Being a multiple dog household I cannot board any dog with same sex aggression, human aggression, or idiopathic aggression, and reactive dogs will be a case by case basis, However, being a trainer I am more than open to help families work through these issues. Please let me know of any medical conditions or allergies! I like to use treats when working with dogs, so I recommend bringing some yummy high value treats so their tummy doesn’t get upset! If you are interested in dog training and would like to do a Board & Train contact me for more details! I also offer training packages during boarding, so if you want your pup to work on some basic obedience feel free to ask for more info!
About: I have had numerous pets since I was little, from ducks to dogs I can do it all! I have been pet sitting friends and family’s animals since I was 14 and even stayed the night/nights if requested. Also, I have 9+ years of customer service experience so I am very well rounded with people and strive to meet their needs! I can’t wait to meet and play with your fur babies! I have a full time job M-F but pet sit in my spare time! I love going for walks and like to run for exercise so your fur babies can get some sun with me! I am available to house sit during weekdays and weekends. I do work 9:30a-6pm M-F. I work from home! Some of my clients are okay with me working from their homes while I am pet sitting. I will make sure I ask that when I am getting to know you! (: ***Attention*** The rates I have posted on my Rover account differ from client to client. If you live more than a 4 mile radius from my home, I do have to increase the price for gas purposes. I always try my very best to accommodate families who are living on a budget. If you have any questions/concerns about this, please feel free to ask them. Also, as for safety, I do like to bring my mom along with me on the initial meet and greets and I’ll make sure I ask before doing so! I can come to your location or stay at your home whether it be 1 day or several! I always like to meet with clients before I stay at their home and meet your pets so that you can see how much I care about you and your pets and so you both can get to know me and be comfortable with the care you receive! Please inform me of all medications and what times they need to be administrated to your pet. Also, if they have any allergies or conditions I should be aware of (: I unfortunately can not offer my own home as a form of pet stay/care.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had one by my side. Over the years, my family has owned a variety of breeds, including a Yorkie, Beagle mix, Chocolate Lab, Golden Retriever, and Miniature Doodle, which has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. During my junior year of high school, I adopted my own Yorkie puppy, who is now 3 years old and truly my best friend. Having cared for dogs my whole life, I understand how important it is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and cared for. I take pride in making sure each pet gets the attention, patience, and care they deserve. Dogs may not be able to talk, but I will always make sure their needs are understood and met. As a full-time student at LSU, I have a very flexible schedule and currently do not have another job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available Monday through Saturday for whatever times are needed, whether that includes walking, feeding, watering, playing, or simply keeping your dog company. For the summer, my schedule is completely open, so I am available whenever you may need reliable and loving pet care. I’m committed to making sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I will send lots of pictures of your furry friend because I believe it gives a piece of mind to doggy parents and will play with them intill they run through all their energy!
“Shania was so communicative when my dog was being challenging. She even went the extra mile and was willing to come over and meet my dog later that day when I was home so Bonnie could warm up to her”

About: I've cared for a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, fish, chickens, rabbits, turtles, ducks, and hamsters. With years of experience, I understand and respond to each pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I'm excited to treat your pets with the same care as my own. I'm flexible with pet care on weekdays and weekends, fitting it into my hybrid work schedule. While September and February are busier due to work travel, my current availability is up to date. Let’s connect and see if I’m a good match for your pet care needs! When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their routines and comfort. I follow your specific instructions to ensure your pet feels safe and secure. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both your pet and you. To build trust and ensure safety, I request a brief discussion about your pet's needs and routines. If possible, I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet, but I'm happy to provide services even if that's not an option.
About: I have experience providing care for dogs over extended periods, including helping neighbors while they were away for long trips. I also have two dogs of my own, which has given me hands-on experience with daily care, routines, and behavior. In addition, I’ve looked after the pets of family and friends, ensuring their dogs were safe, happy, and well-cared for in their absence. Since returning home from college, I have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day and other time for pet owners. During drop-in visits, I make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care to keep them happy and comfortable while you're away. I’m also committed to being respectful and responsible in every home I visit, treating your space with the same care I would my own.
About: I have been working with animals, dogs especially for over 10 years. I started working with animal rescue since I was 8 years old under the guidance of ARNO and a fellow rescuer who has dedicated her life to dogs. My neighbors, family & friends have asked me in the past to watch their pets from a young age, knowing that they will be in safe hands. Rover is my main job, though I do have one additional side job for slow season. I regularly take care of friends pets and my own. I have a double fenced yard, a smaller yard inside of a larger yard that I allow my pups to play in and do their business in. I pay close attention to my pets along with others due to having a dog that had multiple health conditions up until 2018, when he sadly passed away due to old age. I still use the same care that I had for him for all the pets I watch wheather it be my own or others.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I truly meet pets where they are. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love building trust with each animal, whether that means helping a high-energy puppy learn basic manners or giving a senior pet the extra care and comfort they need. I have experience with puppy care (including reinforcing routines and house rules) as well as senior care, such as administering medication, assisting with mobility, and keeping a calm, predictable environment. I’m very detail-oriented, follow instructions closely, and treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a student with a flexible part-time job, I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and give it the time and attention it deserves. I’m already used to building my days around routines, so feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins fit in easily. I enjoy spending time with animals as a break from schoolwork, and I make sure each pet gets consistent care, attention, and affection throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I know pets are most comfortable when things feel familiar, so I take the time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, walk routine, play style, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while also keeping their environment clean and calm. I’m careful to follow all instructions, including medications, training routines, or house rules.
