House Sitting Bayou Saint John

“Joel is the perfect dog sitter for our 13 year old Weimaraner. He does a great job caring for her and makes her very happy. We’re very lucky to be able to go out of town and not worry about our pet.”

“Ian is an absolute gift and a joy. He went above and beyond taking care of my cat Hero, who absolutely loves him and was comfortable chilling with him right away. I will 100% be working with Ian in the future, and if you do too your pet will be in wonderful, caring hands!”

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.

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.

“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!”

“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 :-)”

About: I love dogs and love caring for them. I am fun and energetic. I could spend hours playing with dogs. 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 three animals of my own and know how to keep them in control. If there are things you would like to me teach your dog I can do my best to help you train your dog. Please contact me soon. I currently work full time so I am available after 3 pm on the weekdays. I can check on your beloved pet during my lunch break. I have full availability on the weekends. 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.

“Elise was an amazing sitter and house guest! She was communicative and made the first time having to leave my dog for the weekend stress free. My dog loved her.”

“Stacy has walked our two maltipoo dogs on several occasions now. Most recently, she house and dog sat for us, and she was great! She sent regular updates, and our dogs seemed to be in good spirits when we returned. She took great care of our home and our dogs, and we grateful to have found her! ”

Crissy C.

“We've had Cheryl watch our dogs twice now and our dogs absolutely love her and we do, too! She is very kind, considerate, reliable, and clean! We will continue to book Cheryl to watch our pups because she cares for them as if they were her own dogs!”

Andree A.

“The BEST dog and house sitter for our fur baby! We feel confident leaving our dog and home in her professional hands. She is a true BLESSING.”

Annmarie D.

“Macie watches my Lulu regularly, and is always wonderful with her. She keeps her company, gives her meds, and sends me photos. I will always rebook with Macie!”

Dalma B.

“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 🙏🙏🙏”

“Chloe did a wonderful job handling my crew of 4! She sent lots of updates with pictures & communicated well throughout her stay. I returned to happy pets & a tidy home. My lil family will surely be happy to see her again!”

Angela T.

“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.

“We love Carly! She is a great communicator. Is extra attentive and loving with our pets. She sent sweet photos and messages while we were gone. She is responsible and thoughtful and our pets love her!”

“THIS IS BIG! ROCCO LOVES CAITLIN :D! We threw EVERY spoiled little bratdog curveball at Caitlin and she delivered excellent poochy care with each loving pet, hug and cookie! (Truly, Schnoz was likely a cat in a previous life and is disgusted by all humans' inadequacies.) Caitlin spent three (probably long days) in our home with our moody little knucklehead .. and with us popping in and out. We were all a handful! Caitlin was prompt, caring, detail-oriented and devoted to Rocco having a bestest time ever while Mom & Dad were gallivanting around Funk Fest without him. (He even got to stop at his beloved Golden Lantern where all of the bartenders have finally earned their keys to his heart.) Our happiest moment was when Caitlyn sent over a picture of Rocco ALLOWING her to snuggle him. NO SMALL FEAT! Caitlin, you're a GODDESS, and we're thrilled to have found you! (Rocco is, too, even though he'll never admit it.) See you soon! :D”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Taking care of three dogs, each with their own unique personalities and needs, is no small feat, but Emily rocked it! Our shepherd loved her walks, our snuggly chihuahua got all the cuddles she needed, and our grouchy senior chihuahua received the special care she required. It was such a relief knowing our pups were in loving, capable hands while we were away. On top of that, our home was just as we left it—clean and well cared for. We highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

Michelle S.

“Abby is a lifesaver! I had an unexpected out of town trip that bumped into another trip for which I had already booked another sitter. Abby came to meet my pets within a few hours of my request and was flexible with my unknown travel plans. She got along great with my dogs and wasn't afraid to take on my almost 17 year old Beagle mix who can be a lot of work. Abby also washed the linens on the bed so everything was ready to go for the next sitter to come in. She made a stressful, last minute trip a whole lot easier and sent plenty of pics of my pouting Yorkie and grandma Beagle.”

Erin Z.

“Bianca was amazing! She stayed with my pup, Jane, for 8 nights while we were on vacation. I was able to relax and enjoy the trip knowing Janie was in good hands. Bianca sent a couple updates per day including pictures of their time together. I came home to a clean house and a happy pup. I will definitely be hiring Bianca again in the future.”
