Cat Sitting Bayou Gauche

About: Hi! We’re Seth and Farrah, the team behind 504Doghouse. We’ve both grown up around animals our entire lives, and together we bring a wide range of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and even farm animals. We love what we do and treat every pet like family. ⸻ Our Pet Care Experience From Seth: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, but my lifelong dog Phoebe — a miniature schnauzer — taught me what it really means to care for a pet from childhood through adulthood. Later, I fostered a high-energy Lab/Pit mix named Bella, who showed me how different breeds have different needs, personalities, and training styles. After serving in the military, I rescued my dog Deku, a border collie–schnauzer mix who learned full obedience and trick training within months. I’ve also helped raise my brother’s Catahoula/Blue Heeler mix, Snoop — another high-energy, intelligent dog who taught me how to handle rough play and stubborn behavior. I’ve worked at Petco handling small animals, volunteered at shelters, and now regularly walk dogs, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From Farrah: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, and my Boston Terrier — who I walked and ran with for over 10 years — shaped my understanding of daily pet care, consistency, and companionship. As an adult, I fostered a kitten for almost a year and have been house-sitting for the past 3 years. I’ve cared for up to 4 cats, 2 dogs (large and small), and even goats and chickens for the family I regularly house sit for. Managing different species and routines has taught me how to stay organized, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. ⸻ What We Offer ✔️ Safe, fun, controlled walks ✔️ Drop-ins with detailed updates and photos ✔️ Experience with high-energy breeds, seniors, and multi-pet homes ✔️ Respect for your home and your pet’s routine ✔️ A reliable two-person team for added flexibility and attention We’re patient, energetic, and passionate about giving every pet the care they deserve. Whether your pet is playful, shy, anxious, or full of energy, we’re great at meeting them where they are and helping them feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits easily into our weekly routine because we both have flexible schedules. Here’s how we manage our availability: • Seth works part-time, which leaves plenty of open hours during the day for walks and drop-ins. • Farrah is currently pregnant and stays at home, so she’s almost always available to give consistent attention and care. • Walks are offered between 9 AM–6 PM. • Drop-ins are available until 8 PM. • Weekends and special situations can be accommodated upon request. • Because there are two of us, we’re able to provide reliable coverage, flexibility, and quick communication. We keep our schedule open to make sure your pet’s routine stays steady, stress-free, and well cared for. We take safety and trust seriously in every situation. When we’re caring for pets in your home, we follow your routines exactly, keep doors and gates secured, use your preferred equipment, and make sure everything is clean and locked up before we leave. For walks and drop-ins, we use safe, controlled walking practices, avoid risky dog interactions, watch weather conditions, and always keep your pet on leash. We send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. Overall, we treat every pet like our own. With two of us working together, your pet gets reliable attention, consistency, and a calm, safe environment every time.

About: I've been caring for dogs for years, starting with pet sitting for my best friend's dogs and later helping my sister care for pets in our community. My experience grew even further when I worked for a year at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also worked at a veterinary clinic, giving me valuable knowledge about both dogs' and cats' health, behavior, and daily care needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own- providing plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and safe, reliable care while you're away. I am currently seeking a summer job before returning to college for the upcoming academic year. I am motivated to gain valuable work experience, develop professional skills, and earn income to help support my educational expenses. I am dependable, eager to learn, and available to work every day throughout the summer season, including weekends if needed. I am looking for an opportunity where I can contribute positively while building experience that will benefit me both personally and professionally. I provide attentive and compassionate care for pets in their own homes, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet's routine, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special care instructions. I give pets plenty of affection and attention, monster their well-being, and maintain clean and secure environment.

“Thank you for taking care of my boys while I was out of town! I much appreciated the updates on their eating behavior as I know they can be picky at times!”

About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have over 15 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a senior dog who needs extra patience, a playful kitten, or a shy cat, I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, provide plenty of playtime, exercise, affection, and mental stimulation, and I’m happy to administer medications if needed and follow any special care instructions. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule, allowing me to provide dependable and attentive care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I make it a priority to be on time, stick to your pet’s routine, and give them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences you provide. I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of exercise and playtime, clean litter boxes or potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I also respect your home by keeping it clean, locking doors and windows, and leaving everything just as I found it. During each visit, I’ll send photo updates and messages so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Olivia was amazing with my babies while I was out of town for a few days and made me feel at ease during a time that I would’ve been extremely worried and stressed. Would definitely recommend her services to know that your loved ones are safe and secure when you can’t be there.”

About: I have been a dog lover and owner all my life. Getting outside and getting plenty of exercise is something I consider to be especially important. I enjoy taking long walks and playing catch, chase and tug-o-war with all kinds of puppies. Need a sitter or just a quick walk? I can even bathe your puppy if necessary. I am looking forward to sharing my time and helping out with your fur baby! Have a blessed day!

“Eryn was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all our directions and kept us up to date the whole time. She was patient and loving with our crazy animals and we are so grateful to her. We will absolutely use her again!”

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone. I am able to work remotely so care during the day is no issue. I live in an apartment in Meraux above my dad’s office, so while there’s no yard, we have plenty of space to get outside for walks. There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.

I cate for pets in my home or in clients home by being careful around them in things they should not be around and by keep an extra eye on them to make sure they are safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, so I know they’re family. Since I grew up in a home with a dog, looking after them feels like second nature to me. While I don't have a background in professional grooming or training, I have years of hands-on experience raising my own animals I'm comfortable with small pets like guinea pigs and rabbits. Whether I’m house-sitting or just stopping by for a check-in, I’ll leave your home exactly how I found it. You’ll get plenty of photo updates so you can see that your pets are safe and happy. I also make it a priority of following your instructions to the letter, whether it’s specific feeding times, medication, or house rules. I'm currently a college student so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pets when im out of class. I'm available: Mondays after 3pm Fridays and Saturdays after 12pm I take the safety of your home and your pets seriously. I’m a big believer in double checking that doors are locked, alarms are set, and gates are closed when I leave. I will also keep in contact if something seems out of the oridnary. I also make sure toys are put away so your pets stay out of trouble while they’re unsupervised. You’ll never have to wonder if the house is secure. I'll treat your home as I would mine, tidy. I'm a naturally clean and organized person. If I’m house-sitting, I’ll keep the common areas tidy and ensure your pet’s living spaces like litter boxes, cages, or feeding mats stay spotless. You'll come home to a relaxed and well cared for pet.

I also offer nail trims and baths, including medicated baths if necessary I have just recently moved to Louisiana and I look forward to meeting as many clients as possible to hopefully build a relationship. I would like to be your go-to sitter! My number one goal is to make owners comfortable while away, knowing that their best friends and fur-children are in good hands while also ensuring that your home is well taken care of. I have years of experience and multiple return clients that can back this up! Also, my veterinary experience allows me to administer medication effectively as well as special treatments if it is needed.

“Adam did a great job of caring for Kylo and Gary when we were away on vacation! We booked him for drop in visits, and his report card updates were great, and we felt comfortable with him in our home with the cats! Would book again in the future!”

“I had a great experience with Leanne (drop-in visits, 2 cats). She provided consistent updates with prompt, reliable communication and left the house better than she found it. Will look to book her again in the future!”

About: I have have been caring of all types of animals since I was 7+ years old. I have taken care of new born puppies, kittens, raccoons and reptiles of all types throughout my life and I love it!! If I could cuddle a gator I would!!! I have also done whelping services for many family members. I have done a lot of fostering and bottle feeding both puppies and kittens. I’m currently working only for Rover. So I can dedicate all my time to your fur baby and his/her needs and the loving care and schedule you want for them. However I am instructed to. I am there to make you and your pet comfortable while away. It can be stressful for pet and pet parents when they are not together. I try to keep your pets schedule as similar to what they are used to with you. Feeding/ walking/ playing/ sleeping/ waking up will all be as close to their normal schedule as possible. Their comfort is my first priority.

“Absolutely great with our 2 dogs and 4 cats! One of our dogs is very anxious and usually takes a long time to be comfortable with people but she warmed up quickly and absolutely loved ShaeNoel during the visit! Received updates and pictures. Definitely rebooking!”

About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats, the occasional hamster, growing up. I love animals! I’m from the south and have come across all types of puppies (including gator pups) I have no problems in gaining new friends :) I am currently free lancing in artistic endeavors and having a friendly pet would help with the time I’m at home needing a little company and a less… talkative version than human conversation! I love animals and have experience with all types! (I’m from Louisiana so I mean ALL types) including the senior doggies ;) I have a closed in front patio with a little nature-esque ground for quick potty breaks and just to sunbathe when the need arises. I take walks often and live in a neighbor hood away from a busy strip so I can keep pets safe and exercised!
