“Katie was so wonderful!! She accepted my last minute request for a drop-in visit and made me feel so comfortable and secure that my pets were loved and taken care of. She sent great photos! I would absolutely use her again.”
“Emmie did a great job and truly cares about the animals. She communicated with me and let me know of any issues. I would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds since I can remember. I grew up with at least 3-4 dogs in my household at all times, volunteered at the local animal shelter to help take care of the overflow of dogs, fostered a litter of puppies, and of course the occasional dog sitting for a neighbor or family friend. I am currently working 2 part time jobs at the moment, but they usually include short days and hours. I am mostly available from mid afternoon to nighttime on any given day, especially weekends! Schedule is subject to change weekly. I have a big kennel in my home if it’s ever needed. I also have plenty of toys, treats, and other equipment like poop bags, leashes, or harnesses.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I’m 29 years old, born and raised in Louisiana, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, not just a job or side hustle. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets because they’re family. I know the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels — from playful puppies and kittens to older pets that need extra patience and gentle care. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them attention, affection, playtime, and a calm environment so they feel secure and happy. I want pet owners to have peace of mind knowing their babies are in caring, reliable hands. I’m currently working part time so I would have plenty of time for your loved ones. I’m available Monday-Sunday Mornings at 8am to 12pm . Evenings 6:30 to 8pm. I’m able to provide pets with a comfortable indoor space in my spare bedroom, giving them a calm and safe environment while in my care. I also have a spacious backyard where pets can enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely on adjustable leashes, allowing them room to move around comfortably and stretch their legs based on their needs and activity level.
About: My background includes assisting with the daily care of dogs, cats, and small animals, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and monitoring overall health and behavior. I also have experience in farm settings, where I’ve worked with larger animals and learned proper handling, feeding routines, and maintaining clean, safe environments. Pet care fits well into my daily routine, as I prioritize time for feeding, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week while maintaining each pet’s routine and needs. I provide attentive and personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In both my home and my client’s home, I ensure pets are fed on schedule, given regular walks or exercise, and have plenty of playtime and attention. I maintain a clean, safe environment and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I also follow any specific instructions provided, including medication, dietary needs, or special routines, and keep owners updated to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.
“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She asked a bunch of questions early on to understand my dog's needs and kept me informed of concerns that came up during the drop-in visits. I highly recommend her as a sitter, especially if you have a large breed dog. I will definitely schedule her for future drop-ins.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I grew up with multiple dogs in my home and loved every second of it. I don’t mind watching dogs of all ages. I’m also used to walking dogs of all sizes big and small. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to watch or walk your animals! I am definitely available to work weekdays and most weekends. My home does not have a yard so I prefer to watch your animals at your house. I don’t mind crating your animals while I’m gone if you need me to. They will definitely get a lot of attention from me because I love giving them pets (if they want it of course).
About: I am a veterinary student at LSU with a lifelong love of animals and over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of species. I offer reliable pet sitting. I’m also comfortable administering medications and supplements as directed. I know how important it is to leave your animals with someone you trust, and I’ll care for each of them as if they were my own! As an LSU veterinary student, my schedule varies slightly throughout the week, but I’m generally available in the early mornings, between classes, in the evenings, and throughout the weekend. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, dog walks, house sitting, boarding, or daycare whenever my schedule allows. I communicate my availability clearly before booking and make sure I have plenty of time to give each animal the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I follow each owner’s instructions closely and maintain the animal’s normal routine as much as possible. I prioritize safety by keeping doors, gates, leashes, and enclosures secure, supervising pets carefully, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. Because I live in an apartment, boarded dogs are taken outside for supervised leash walks and potty breaks rather than being allowed into an off-leash yard. I’m also comfortable administering medications and supplements as directed, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of individual attention.
“Keonna took great care of my boys and even left music on for them though I think I forgot to ask her to that. She was also very patient with my boys and they were in great shape when I returned.”
About: I am a design student at LSU. Beyond my 7 years of experience in pet care, I grew up with and took care of 4 dogs, 2 cats, fish, and a lizard (his name is peanut). I love keeping owners involved, so you can expect photos, updates, and little moments from your pet's day while you're away. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am currently a full time student at LSU. However, I have a flexible schedule so I will be able to work around that commitment. After years of caring for pets, l've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: Have resided with small dogs such as yorkies up to large dogs such as cane corsos. Have also worked with K9s during my time spent working in airport cargo Im currently unemployed so my schedule is very flexible when it comes to my daily/weekly routine. Pet care is my #1 source of employment. I have a full sized car available for outings. I clean up well behind myself & respect other peoples space & boundaries. I follow any rules & regulations put in place for the good of the pet & integrity of myself
“Whitney has been a life saver for us! We just got a new puppy and she has been coming to let him out to potty and have some play time during the day, while we work. She has done a great job with him and our older dog. We are continuing to hire her on weekly basis. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
About: My pack of dogs range from about 30 pounds to over 150, and several of them are high-energy breeds who need serious daily exercise. Whether your dog is a couch potato, a big gentle giant, or a ball of nonstop energy, I know how to keep them happy, tired, and well cared for. Living with dogs of every size and energy level has taught me how to read body language, manage different personalities, and meet each dog's individual needs. I'm comfortable handling large and giant breeds, and I know that a dog who doesn't get enough exercise can turn into a very create (and destructive) dog. Active pups get the long walks (or runs), play sessions, and mental stimulation they need, and I plan outings around Louisiana's heat, with early mornings and evenings in the summer, so everyone stays safe and comfortable. What your pup can expect: Daily walks and vigorous playtime, tailed to your dog's energy level. Feeding and medication on your schedule. Photo and video updates so you can see the fun. A calm, dog savvy home or drop-ins. Patience, consistency, and a lot of love. I am able to tend to your pets before I go to work, during my break, and after I get off of work. I also have full availability on weekends. I care for pets in my home based on the differing needs of each pet. I previously had a dog that had diabetes and required insulin twice a day, as well as another dog I found that had severe heart worms and required daily medication, so I am comfortable giving your pets their needed medication.
“Jada was great with my senior baby. She was always very attentive and affectionate with him. I never worried about him when I knew she was caring for him. She was on time and my house was always locked up tight when she left. Highest recommendation from me”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 236 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Carville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
