Doggy Day Care in Bodcau

About: I know that you have many options for care. I have been working through Rover since early 2020 and would like to share some information about myself. I made the decision to take an early retirement after twenty-two years at Northwestern State University when my husband and I relocated to Shreveport and both of our children went off to college. This move gave me the opportunity to pursue a job that I ❤️ and am passionate about. I believe dogs and cats are the most awesome of Earth's creatures, and, in my eyes, are such precious members of our families. I am a long-time dog and cat owner and currently a parent to three rescued dogs. I also was an active volunteer and Board Member for Natchitoches Hope for Paws dog rescue from 2012 to 2022. During this time, I worked with 150+ rescued dogs at the site and through the foster program. I found so much pleasure and enjoyment working as a rescue volunteer and wanted to expand my love and care of these most precious of animals. As a volunteer, I cleaned kennels, administered medications, walked and played with dogs, worked with basic training techniques and leash walking, and evaluated and monitored dog behaviors and personalities for proper socialization and integration with other dogs including aggressive and high anxiety dogs. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I love all fur babies big, small, young, and old. I am available at any time and since I am retired, I am able to provide drop-in services, walks, and overnight care (for socialized and house trained dogs who are current on all shots and flea/tick preventives), including medication administration and care for aggressive and high-anxiety dogs. I have no problems with cleaning up accidents and will ensure that your home stays clean of messes. I am also a firm believer in sending pictures while you are away so you can be comforted that your dog (or cat) is receiving nothing but the upmost care and love while you are away. No requested service is to great or small! I would welcome the opportunity to help you with care needs for your fur babies! Since I am retired, I am available at any time for drop-ins, walks, and overnight boarding (socialized and house trained only). I am also able to work around flexible and changing schedules. I live in a house with a large fully fenced backyard and have a doggy door which allows the dogs to move freely in and out of the house as they desire.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Jack, received! Amy sent me adorable pictures throughout the day, and he was so well taken care of. He was completely exhausted and slept the entire way home, which was perfect! I highly recommend this service to anyone who doesn’t want to leave their fur babies in a kennel for too long. Amazing experience!”

About: I’m an experienced Kennel and Vet Assistant. I have the experience to take the extra care that a flat faced dog needs and how to bathe them with care. I also have the experience with senior dogs and take gentle care of their brittle bones. I have experience with taking care of dogs that are big and know that they are gentle giants. No need to worry if your dog has medication I also have experience in giving your babies their meds when needed and how to give it as prescribed. I am currently not working so I have all the time to take care of your beautiful babies when you’re hard at work. I’m available during your work hours and during the weekend if needed. In my home I can take your dog out for a walk and potty breaks. My apartment complex is animal friendly with a lot of space to play. You can be sure to know that your animal is safe with me if they need to have medication given to them. In your home you can rest assured that your dog will have the same routine and never be bored. I’ll make sure to give them ample play time and potty breaks.

About: It can be really hard with work or other responsibilities to spoil your pet like you want too. Let me help! I’ve grown up with pets all my life. Currently, I have a miniature schnauzer mix. His name is Teddy! He’s super sweet and he’s spoiled rotten! He’s pretty small but I’ve kept dogs of all sizes. Big or small, I got you. If it’s a drop in just to check, or you need me to watch them for a week while you go on vacation. I can help! I have a fenced yard now and your pup will have a friend. His name is a Teddy, he’s a miniature schnauzer and he loves to play! My daughter also loves all the animals that comes to visit, so expect your pet to be a little spoiled to her when you return! I finally finished my nursing program! YAY! Nurse Beth has a nice ring to it! Thank all of y’all for all the wonderful support. However, that means I won’t have as much time to take care of all your sweet doggies. I am more than happy to keep your pet but please understand I will no longer be home all day. I have some help at home so I’ll still be overseeing the care of my regulars when I am able too. I have a fenced in back yard and a sunroom that’s heated and cooled! They are also allowed in my home and on furniture unless otherwise notified!

“Excellent care and great communication throughout.”

“Leilani took excellent care of my pup, when I picked him up he was happy and tired and had a great time playing all day! Leilani took the extra time to send me pet photos and updates, and had excellent communication. Will definitely be using her daycare services again!”

About: I’ve been a dog and cat sitter since my freshman year of high school and am also a fellow loving dog owner! I am now a collegiate student-athlete attending the University of Washington playing volleyball! I have years of experience with not only pet sitting but with also house sitting! I currently work part-time a couple days a week coaching volleyball but I am based at home on Barksdale AFB every day of the week. I have a small yard for dogs to run around but also have access to puppy pads if your dog happens to be potty trained! I have a small toy poodle who gets along with any animal and doesn’t mind sharing any of his many toys and treats ;)

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. There is only one other person living in my home and they are only home after 5 pm. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.

About: I grew up in a house with never less than 4 dogs at a time, to me pets are not just some animal that lives in the house with you they are family! My love and passion for animals grew into a career as an zookeeper but I never lost my love for domestic pets! From dogs, cats, fish, to exotic pets such as guinea pigs and hedgehogs. I am happy to give your furry family members baths, light grooming, medicine and lots of love! I have also handled multiple types of breeds professionally and personally. Some of my favorite breeds to work with are but not limited to Pugs, Rottweiler, Bulldogs, Pitbulls, dachshund, Golden Retrievers, Labs, Aussies, and so many more! From young to older, to special needs. I will be there for your special family member! I’m currently the curator of live exhibits at Shreveport Aquarium. I work mornings (7-4), so if you need someone to check in during the evenings, I’m your gal! 🤗 Since I have a pug, I prefer to use my harness on my dog during walks. Since I have a fenced house, they have full range of the back yard.
