“Emily was wonderful with my two kitties. She got my shy tuxedo cat who struggles with separation anxiety to warm up and even play a little bit while I was gone. ❤️”
3. Jadyn L.
“Jadyn did well with our cats for the short trip we took! She gave Penny space (which is how she likes it lol) and played great with Maxi and gave him lots of attention which he loved. She was always on time (or early) for the visits and gave us great updates and pics. Would book again!”
4. Megan D.
“It was such a pleasure to leave Penny with Megan! I really enjoyed her thorough updates, and I know she took care of Penny probably better than I do ;) I recommend Megan to anyone looking for a weekend sitter, and I’d love to use her services again in the future if she’d have us”
5. Mandy M.
“Mandy was so sweet and gentle with Fitz. She came despite the hurricane to care for him!! She went above and beyond. She is punctual and spent a lot of time taking absolutely the best care of him with lots of picture updates. She was also available last minute and Fitz absolutely adored her!! I can’t think of even one minor thing for improvement. She was absolutely perfect in communication, timing and care for my fur baby! Will definitely rebook her again without any hesitation!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old when I got my first pup, a Shih Tzu. I have had small dogs, medium dogs, and super large pups and I love them all equally. I also have experience with special needs dogs and senior dogs who may need a little more attention. I also have experience house training pups. My dogs are apart of my family and yours will be too! ?ATTENTION: I am a Saints and LSU season ticket holder, if you’re looking for a sitter during the games I am NOT your girl, as I will be there too! I’m sorry for any inconvenience this causes. I’m also not home during the day. I work an office job and check in on the pups at lunch.

“Michelle was attentive and did a very thorough job caring for my 2 dogs while I was out of town. I would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. I will definitely request her services again.”

“Took good care of my herd. Walked my pups too! Gave them plenty of time in yard in addition to the walks. And gave my most senior dog extra TLC. Highly recommend!”
10. Maddie C.
About: I'm a college student going into my sophomore year at LSU. I have lots of experience in taking care of/ walking dogs. I've had dogs my whole life and am always the go-to sitter for neighbors. I cant wait to meet your fur babies. I am almost always available for pet care. I'm currently home for the summer and doing dog care full-time. I can adjust to your needs. Tipically 90% of my care is just loving on the fur babies. I love dogs and by the way I get so excited to pet yours that you would think I don't have any. Obviously, I can do all the boring things like feeding and walking, but their happiness comes first.
11. Keonna C.
“Well my experience with Miss Keonna was very amazing when she returned with my little Chihuahua she almost had to force her to come back because she treated her with so much love my baby didn't want to leave from my personal experience I would highly recommend her for taking care of animals cuz she really love them and it's her passion”
12. Tenay D.
“Tenay was a wonderful friend to our fur babies. We look forward to working with her again next time we travel and are unable to bring Daisy and Beaux along with us.”
13. Kaylie Y.
“Kaylie has consistently provided safe, loving care to my fur babies! When she took care of my two big dogs, her approach was friendly and attentive, which made a significant difference for my dogs who tend to be very shy and unsure of outsiders. She took the time to understand the specific needs of each dog, ensuring they were comfortable and well cared for in her presence. Her ability to connect with my dogs and her genuine concern for their well-being assured me that they were in the best hands. Kaylie's dedication to providing tailored care highlights her commitment to the happiness and health of any and all animals she looks after.”
14. Savannah M.
“Mrs. Savannah is our favorite new friend! My Juju absolutely LOVES her and she is a picky girl 😉 These weekly “play dates” have helped my Juju so much!!! We love Mrs Savannah!!!! 1000/10 would recommend again and again!”
15. Gianna V.
About: I have three huskies at home. Taking care of them requires a lot of attention, energy, and patience. (Heavy on the patience LOL) My boyfriend also has a boxer, so I have plenty of experience walking, feeding, and playing with large energetic dogs. I am always looking to walk, house sit, or just have a playdate with your fur baby! I am always willing to anything to provide a great life for our babies. Whether that is a walk, playing, or giving them their favorite treats! I keep safety and care for our babies by simply following the rules! If specific rules or instructions are placed ( ex: certain ways to feed your dog or cat) the. I follow them to a tee. Before letting dogs out I always look to see if there are any wild animals before letting them out. (One of my huskies brought me an opossum. Was not fun🙈) Small actions like these provide safety and protection for our fur babies.
16. Lauren D.
“Lauren was incredible! I’m a crazy cat lady and kind of extra when it comes to my cats. Lauren followed all my instructions and sent me lots of pictures and videos. She will definitely be my go-to cat sitter from here on at. I’d definitely recommend her!”
17. Emma O.
“Emma did such a good job caring for our two cats while we were away. She sent detailed updates and photos after every visit so we always knew our babies were well cared for. One of our cats is very shy and usually hides from strangers, but she warmed up quickly to Emma. Emma kept the litter box area incredibly clean and also helped us out by watering our flowers and bringing in our mail. She was great! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a dependable, friendly cat sitter!”
18. Anika A.
“Anika came to my house five days out of the week for a month to walk and train my puppy. He was the most well-behaved dog you’ve ever met after working with her. As a first-time dog owner, she always gave advice and helped assuage my anxieties. Timeliness/communication: A+ Thoroughness: A+ Care and concern for your pet: A+”
19. Sarah B.
“Sarah took great care of my cat Sylvia while I was out of town! I enjoyed the pictures and updates she sent and was able to better enjoy my vacation knowing that Sylvia was getting some play time and attention while I was away. Sylvia was very happy when I returned.”
20. Annmarie V.
“Annie is amazing with animals! She truly cares about your pets well being and happiness. She'll go above and beyond for your pets needs - she herself is always taking in sick and 'broken" pets into her own home. You can trust that your dog will be loved and well taken care of under her watch!”
