Pet Sitting Bayou Oaks

“I have just started using the Rover app and I am extremely happy and grateful for finding Stephanie. She is very professional, great in communicating and very attentive. Most importantly she is very kind and very caring of my Stella. When Stephanie stops by my mind is definitely at ease knowing my Stella is in great hands. You will not be disappointed booking with Stephanie 😊”

About: Hi! I'm Morgan! I’m an Education Specialist at Mote Marine Laboratory with a lifelong passion for educating others on the importance of and personally caring for all animals in our environment. My career includes experience in AZA-accredited animal care, where I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior, husbandry, enrichment, safety, and individualized care for all kinds of critters. I also grew up surrounded by animals of all kinds—from dogs and cats to all others—so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to provide care that keeps them comfortable, happy, and well-loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some playtime and enrichment, a relaxing visit, or dependable overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My professional animal-care background also means I’m comfortable paying close attention to changes in behavior, following detailed care instructions, and prioritizing your pet’s safety and well-being. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can trust to care for them! 🐾 I am currently working full-time at Mote Marine Laboratory as an Education Specialist, where I teach all ages on all things science and marine conservation. My hours in the office are flexible in the afternoons around scheduled programming, so if your pet needs earlier attention than 5pm, then I am able to be around! My weekly schedule is currently Sunday-Thursday, so if you need a sitter for a (long) weekend-getaway, my schedule is the perfect fit to keep your furry friend company! During the week, I am available mornings and evenings for any care that your pet may need: early morning/evening walks, help with feeding, or any other adventures/day-to-day care! I am available for pet-care needs during the weekend, as well: all day/night Friday and Saturday with availability into Sunday morning. I am able to keep your furry-friend company, in whatever way they may need, in the comfort of your (their) own home! I am able to travel to your location to provide pet-care, as well as take your pet on an adventure (walk, swim, etc.) through my own transportation, if you want! I am open and able to fit my care tasks/style into whatever needs you and your pet may have.

“Helped us out in a pinch! And was attentive enough to refill their water bowl without being asked. Very nice to the doggos!”

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

“She is so sweet, she is responsible, communicommunicative, and my animals felt safe with her since she met them. My house was clean, no mess.”

“Hurricane Ian! Power out! And superhero Christine was there above and beyond for Khan and George. She does a great job during a regular visit and I knew the boys were in good hands during bad weather. She is the very best, rain or shine.”

“Kelly is very kind and professional and did a great job with Oakley! I can tell he had a great time while I was gone and was taken care of well. I also appreciate her able to take care of my cat on short notice. Highly recommend Kelly for your pet sitting needs.”

About: I am a dedicated and dependable pet care provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals independently. I have grown up around pets my entire life and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, fish, and turtles. This diverse background has given me strong instincts, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individual animal needs. I currently own a cat who is a cherished companion, and caring for her has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone else’s beloved animals. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether through daily care, companionship, feeding, or maintaining routines. I take pride in being reliable, gentle, and attentive, and I am passionate about helping pet owners feel confident and at ease while they are away. I work as a server, so my schedule can vary from week to week; however, I typically work evening shifts from around 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. This makes me most available for pet care during morning and early afternoon hours (approximately 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM), which works well for daily visits, walks, and check-ins. I am happy to accommodate overnight pet sitting, and I always communicate my work schedule in advance to ensure it aligns with both the pet’s routine and the owner’s expectations. Clear communication is a priority for me, and I strive to make sure every pet receives consistent, reliable care while their owner is away. I understand that every pet and owner has unique needs, routines, and expectations. I am committed to working closely with pet parents to ensure all care requirements are met, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether a pet thrives on a structured schedule or prefers a more flexible, relaxed routine, I am happy to accommodate what works best for both the pet and the owner. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care while making the experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have been caring for them since I was a kid. I’ve lived with and worked with all kinds of breeds, from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Toy Poodles and Chihuahuas. I’ve also worked with dogs that were fearful or difficult to manage and, with patience, consistency, and training, helped them become more comfortable and confident. I have plenty of experience with puppies, including helping with potty training, and I’m comfortable with cats as well. I’m used to handling everyday grooming and basic care and know when something is best left to the vet. I’m pretty calm in stressful situations and don’t get easily overwhelmed. Most importantly, I believe animals respond best to patience, consistency, love, and respect. I’m comfortable setting boundaries and maintaining house rules, but I don’t believe in harsh physical correction. My goal is always to build trust and create a good relationship with every animal in my care. To me, there’s no such thing as a bad dog just an animal that may need more patience, understanding, and the right guidance. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding as my schedule is flexible and rotating. I’m available Mon-Sunday 6am-2pm and select evenings. Feel free to reach out about evening care my availability changes week to week. I currently live in an apartment located close to downtown. Even though I lack large space and a fenced in yard I am a stones throw away from a large park and put it to good use. I have one very friendly dog who is full of love and a very curious cat. I am able to crate your animal if the need arises. With my dog we are very active and go on 3-5 walks a day. She loves adventures and car rides so we go out and about a lot! I have reliable transportation and don’t mind driving to fit your needs. Currently I have so many dog / cat toys we could fund a small shelter. We have plenty of supplies to keep your fur babies happy and entertained. I have done work in many industries which required me to be adept at problem solving, reliable and trustworthy. High stress environments don’t bother me. We love the little ones and have fostered in the past, we just hate having to give them back!

“Molly was amazing! She came at the exact times we requested (and if something came up and the time had to change, she wrote us asking if the new time was okay), walked our dog for longer than we ever expected, cuddled with her (as she needs a lot of love), gave her toys and treats, always sent us multiple photos per visit, made sure our dog was happy and loved at every visit, and even took her time working with Daisy when she refused to go outside due to being scared of the thunder / rain - she still made sure Daisy went outside to use the bathroom and even walked her for a little bit. I could not have asked for a better dog sitter for our baby. Will definitely use again!”

About: I have always had a dog in my life since I was born but my caretaking journey started when a little corgi entered into my world. She was an escape artist, food fiend, she couldn’t be left for too long and she battled anxiety her whole life, but she brought me the most joy. She taught me attentiveness, and limitless love. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge so I have been missing the presence of my fury friend but am excited to hang out with doggies again!!! Skills include: puppy care, senior care, special needs. During the school year, I am a grad student and my weekends are usually free. I have class 9-5:30pm tue-fri with a 2 hour break 12-2pm everyday. Mondays are always free. I appreciate a list of instructions specifically stating your pets schedule and needs. The more detailed the better:) I love to take videos and pictures to keep you updated through the process. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your baby with a stranger.

“Susan was amazing!! This was our first time using Rover and she went above and beyond to make us feel at ease! Looking forward to working with her again!!”

“She was prompt and super kind! Quick response time. One of the days she came to visit our pet, the rover app was down, so she went out of her way to check in & send pictures through text. Awesome experience!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. In high school, I fostered dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since 2017, I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, structure, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need stimulation to more laid-back pets who just want companionship and consistency. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Real estate gives me a flexible, self-managed schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m often out and about locally, which makes drop-ins and walks convenient. I can accommodate mornings, midday visits, evenings, and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

“Victoria was excellent with my cats! My oldest cat Cleo hid from her but she finally lured her out of hiding in other words. Good sitter. Love her!”
