House Sitting Bayou Saint John

“As much as we dislike leaving our pets (including two seniors with special needs) and home, we’re grateful they’re all in great hands with Joel. We appreciate the regular updates and him going above and beyond to take such good care of everyone while we’re gone. Will happily reach out to Joel for future pet-sitting needs!”

About: I've never known life without animals! I've been responsible for pets from a very young age: from gerbils, to cats and dogs, to squirrels and goats, my circle of friends and family have always committed open homes and hearts to furry friends. Every stage of life, every shade of personality, I resolve to provide love, care and accountability. My personal dedication is boosted to professional assurance, as I am a long term caretaker at Mid City Animal House Daycare and Boarding. My part time work schedule is flexible, and I'm almost always in pet care mode since it's what I do! I am available for most services, from dog walking to house sitting, and if your pets would be good roomies with my pets, I am open to boarding on a case-by-case basis! I am comfortable caring for multiple animals at once, and following owners instructions with a keen eye. I am comfortable administering medications, special care instructions (i.e: elderly or special needs animals) and giving walks and baths. I am generally comfortable in unfamiliar places, maintaining a calm energy, respecting property and taking great care to give pets the attention they need in the absence of their owners. If you are interested in boarding with me: I currently provide a loving home to 2 cats and a dog. They are friendly, curious and well socialized with people and other animals. Dot, our boxer-collie, is especially good with dogs, cats and small children. For safety, we are able to easily separate pets either by partitioning/gating off rooms where they can maintain comfort, or utilizing the large dog crate in the front room where your pet will not be sequestered all by themselves, but still have a space they feel secure. I have no allergies, aversions, or phobias. I communicate well and will happily answer questions and provide references.

“Ian did a great job staying with my two cats while I was out of town. He sent lots of photos and was very responsive during the whole process. Would definitely recommend him!”

“Joree was super sweet and communicative. Quick responses and very flexible. Left my place looking tidy and with a happy pup to come home to :) Highly recommend and will use again!”

About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.

“Danielle C was an outstanding pet and house sitter! I could not recommend her more. She communicated with me throughout her stay, sent amazing photos and clearly loved being with my dogs. I can’t wait to have her back :-)”

“Cheryl was wonderful with my pups while we were out of town. House was spotless when we returned and she even turned our pool on each day. Definitely will be using her again!”

Tiffany S.

“Stacy was wonderful! Very responsive and detail oriented. She sent timely updates and pictures, and left our house clean and tidy after her stay. Would highly recommend!”

Helen M.

“Absolutely fantastic! She was great with communication and our dog was very happy the whole time she was there. Will use her again in a heartbeat!”

If yuh need someone that is reliable and that you can depend on them to take care of your beloved just as you would, I’m your girl! I can handle any breed at any size. I treat animals with love and respect. I have had some experience of taking care of people animals while they were gone for vacation or just out of town.

I have a nice fenced backyard and live close to City Park. I enjoy taking walks so your pet will definitely get the exercise they need. If the pet is staying in their home I can ensure that will feel safe and comfortable. I can handle pets with separation anxiety. My calm spirit makes every pet I’ve watched feel safe with me.

“This was our first time using Rover for our new dog. Everything was very professional and the app was easy to use. Chloe was great and gave us daily updates and photos during our time away. We will definitely use her again!”

“Karen is phenomenal!! Our 3yo doodle LOVED her, as did we😊 From our first interaction through watching our girl she was truly one in a million!!! She is proactive, thoughtful, excellent communicator, on time, flexible, responsible, caring with exceptional knowledge about dogs. We traveled from CO to NOLA for Jazzfest and she was happy to stay in our trailer at the EV park with our girl. Wish we could give her 100 stars 🌟🌟🌟for her stellar service!!! Thank you so much Karen, you are a true gem 🩵”

Annette S.

“Highly recommend Martha! This was my first time leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know, and she put all my worries to bed after the meet and greet. Sent daily pictures and messages, so I knew my dog was having a nice time :) Very attentive to the details I laid out and responsive to any questions or concerns I had throughout the entire experience and left my house just like it was when she arrived. I would book her again and would easily recommend her to anyone else!”

Jarrett E.

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Deana! She was so wonderful with our very, very quirky dachshund who was sick with pneumonia, and equally as wonderful with our very shy cat. She was also so incredibly responsive and reliable. She picked up meds at the vet, and made sure they both got everything they needed. She also had to deal with a water leak in our apartment and was on top of everything, and overall just very respectful of our space. She is the absolute best house sitter we have ever had, and she is truly amazing. Thank you Deana 🙏🙏🙏”

Michelle L.

“Caitlin was fantastic! She was so kind and patient when she first stopped by to meet the critters. She was a fantastic communicator while I was out of town and took some great pictures and videos that clearly showed my dogs were thriving with all the attention she was giving them. It offered me so much peace of mind to know my pets were in such caring hands. Thank you, Caitlin!”

Kristen A.

“I never write reviews because I like to maintain my privacy. Nevertheless, it would be an absolute crime if i did not leave a review for Bianca. She is a top tier sitter. She created daily reports on how my fur babies did each day; sending me pictures throughout the day. She kept my house spotless, but most importantly my fur babies happy. She took them on multiple walks and I could tell they now miss her since we have returned. She will now be my 1st choice every time i use Rover. Thank you Bianca!”

Hailey H.

“Abby was amazing! Great with the dogs and super personable and thoughtful. She was great at communicating throughout my trip and sent photos of the pups looking happy and cute. She left the apartment in perfect condition. I highly recommend booking Abby for all your pet sitting needs!”

Joanna H.

“Macie was great taking care of Ava during the long weekend. She went above and beyond at caring and playing with her. She even took care of the house and did way more than expected. Ava had the best time and was as happy as can be when I got home. Her communication was perfect, and I knew Ava was in good hands.”

Allison B.

“Jared was such a perfect fit for what I needed. My dogs were carefully taken care of, and very well entertained by him. He kept me in the know of anything with the pups and was very attentive to one that needs a little extra for her anxiety. I would highly recommend Jared to anyone, I will for sure be a repeat!”

Michael B.

“Emily took such great care of our pack (including our senior diabetic cat and senior pup with special needs) and home while we were away. We appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos and felt totally at ease knowing everything and everyone was in great hands. 🥰”
