“I can’t say enough wonderful things about E and their amazing care of my rambunctious new kitten! I received daily updates that quelled my mama guilt about leaving this unexpected new family member alone for the week of vacay. Will 100% book again and again!”
“First time using Amanda for a long weekend. She took special care of our older dog who loves sitting on the front porch and was flexible with timing of his visits. She also did a great job keeping me posted on his visit reports.”
“Loren did an excellent job as always. This is the 4th or 5th time looking after my cat while I'm away. My little buddy looks forward to her visits and knows he is in good hands.”
“Hannah took such wonderful care of our beloved kitty, Minou, over the holidays (including Christmas and New Year’s) for two full weeks. From the moment we booked, she was flexible, communicative, and totally committed to ensuring Minou had everything he needed—plus plenty of love and attention. Not only did we come home to an extremely happy and content kitty, but Hannah also went above and beyond by helping with a few little household things that popped up while we were away. Her frequent updates gave us peace of mind, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. We’re so glad we found her, and we’ll absolutely be booking Hannah again next time Minou needs a sitter!”

About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!
“Lindsay was so wonderful! We were given the most detailed notes about the check in we have ever received and the most adorable photos. Lindsay was super flexible with some changes we needed to make, and was always very helpful. I would highly recommend!”
About: I have many years of experience working in the animal industry, not only from managing dog daycare and boarding facilities, but also managing a therapeutic management company for animal healthcare- specializing in PCR molecular diagnostics for all animals. Please note that I primarily offer 1:1 bookings, caring for only one family’s pets at a time to ensure they receive my full attention. However, during peak periods such as holidays, I may accommodate multiple families simultaneously. Please also note that Rover takes 20% from me for each stay. If your pet requires an exclusive, one-on-one environment, I am more than happy to honor that — I simply ask that you communicate any specific needs or concerns prior to booking. Transparency helps me provide the best and safest care possible for every pet in my home. During your pet’s stay, activities may include walks, outings to City Park, enrichment toys, treats, brush-outs with pet-safe perfume, kitty pool time, thorough cleaning of bowls and scoops, and multiple photo updates each day. If you would like to decline any of these services for any reason, please let me know in advance. Please note that not all pets will participate in every activity each day, as daily routines are customized based on your dog’s personality and needs. (All dogs get brushed out, perfume, bowls cleaned, and photos for every stay unless stated otherwise.) I’m a full time Rover employee, willing to accommodate time changes last minute, have dogs extend their stay with no problem, and ensure the health and safety of your beloved pet 100% of the time. 🐶🤘 Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or administering any special care they need, I prioritize their well-being. I also plan my schedule to allow flexibility for pet sitting, ensuring I can accommodate different needs, whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly fur baby to keep your pup company! There are plenty of enrichment toys to keep them busy, along with natural, tasty treats for some extra tail wags. It’s definitely a dog’s world in this household!

Bayou Saint John pet parents share their Rover experiences
Faith was WONDERFUL. My pups are very wary of strangers, and this was the first time they had someone new care for them while I was out of town, and Faith was an all-star. She gave the sweetest/funniest updates about the dogs and took excellent care of them. Highly recommend!!
Caitlin did an amazing job checking on my kitty girls! She was super communicative throughout, offered to do a meet and greet with the cats beforehand, asked about feeding routine/favorite toys beforehand, and sent tons of pics from her visits. I will definitely use Caitlin again, thank you!
Samantha is excellent! It was my first time leaving cats for a week and Samantha made it easy for me to be away and not worry. She gave updates twice a day with photos, and patiently answered my text questions. Samantha went above and beyond the required. Great communication skills. Reliable, responsible, and flexible. I highly recommend Samantha!
Nikki was wonderful! She was professional, on time for all drop ins, great with using the Rover card and adding pictures of my dog. Nikki even noticed that my senior dog was having some anxiety due to fireworks and gave him his anxiety meds and replaced his potty pads. Highly recommend- will reach out to her again for pet sitting!
Cristina is the best cat sitter we've ever had. She clearly loves animals, she asked thoughtful questions when meeting us and gave great updates throughout the days of her cat sitting for us. She really went above and beyond for our kitties, Fiona and Moses, and we will certainly turn to Cristina for our future cat sitting needs. If you want a sitter who is conscientious, attentive, and will give your furry family members the love they deserve, look no further!
