“Michael and Rachel took absolutely wonderful care of my dog Gizmo while I was away! From the moment we met, I could tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. They were attentive, responsible, and incredibly kind — sending me regular updates and photos that made me feel completely at ease. Gizmo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Michael and Rachel to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog sitters!”

“Iryna took great care of my mother-in-law's dog while we were in town and needed last minute boarding after our other Rover needed to cancel their booking on short notice. She was very communicative and caring. I would highly recommend Iryna!”


“Elena was fantastic and sent regular updates about Beignet. Only two other dogs in the home (1 pet, 1 other Rover pup), and everyone got along well. Will definitely book with Elena again in the future!”


“María was an excellent sitter for Toby :) he was well cared for and a happy pup when I came to pick him up. I will definitely use Maria again when I come back to New Orleans. Thank you for taking care of Toby.”


“Blair was great with my 2 little ones, and Cody was really happy and friendly too. She updated me with pictures and even let them sleep on her bed. She followed their special feeding instructions to the detail. My babies were not stressed out at all and seemed at ease when I picked them up. Thanks so much, til next time!”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”
“Roxanne was very quick to respond and was a pleasure to work with. My Shepard, Roxy had so much fun running and playing. She took Roxy to the beach! Thank you for watching Roxy and allowing us our time away.”
“Michael is amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and first time having someone I didn’t know watch my dog. For a whole week at that! I am very anxious and neurotic when it comes to my baby. I supplied Michael with all her necessities and 3 pages of instructions on legal sized paper. Michael was so grateful that I did so and after chatting with him for a few minutes to go over everything, I felt so relieved. I knew she was in good hands. He sends pictures of your baby and is great at responding if you want to do a check in! I definitely recommend Michael and will absolutely use him in the future!”

“Kenneth watched my dog nova for a day and overnight when I went to a Mardi Gras parade and I can’t be more pleased. First off it was last minute and during Mardi Gras nonetheless so it was very challenging to find someone, Kenneth made it easy and responded to my request almost immediately. I was able to drop nova off and felt like I left her in good hands. Kenneth sent me lots of videos and photos during his time with nova which was also super appreciated. And finally when I was an hour late picking her up because I lost my keys and had to wait on a locksmith, he didn’t mind. Overall if I could give 6 stars I would and if I need a dog sitter in New Orleans again I know who to ask. Thanks so much Kenneth!”

“Ellen took amazing care of my dog. She sent me countless photos, and this gave me peace of mind because I could tell how happy he was during the entire stay. I will certainly be asking Ellen to watch over my golden retriever again!”

“Flynn had a great stay with Regina! He is special needs and requires someone to give him medication 4 times daily. She was able to adjust her schedule to make sure she could accommodate this. She wanted to do a meet and greet before which I really appreciated. She always responded right away to any messages I sent, and she kept in touch daily sending pictures of Flynn! He was the only dog she had at the time which was perfect. I would love to be able to have Flynn stay with her again and would absolutely recommend her care to anyone with a special needs dog! Thank you, Regina!”

“This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!”

“I was very nervous because this was my first time using a sitter, but Michelle was very kind and understanding. She sent me videos and pictures throughout the weekend, which made me so happy. Her dog is very sweet and playful, and my dog looked like he had so much fun. I am very grateful to Michelle and her husband for being so responsible and providing excellent dog care.”

“Mike is practically my dog's Uncle! He's always happy to be there and I don't ever feel bad for leaving him as he always have tons of fun. The communication is amazing with tons of videos and pictures of how happy Napoleon is staying with him!”

“I can’t say enough about the complete, loving care Randy provided my “Little Girl” (13 yo Yorkie). He kept her from Fri morning through Sunday evening, provided great pics and videos. This was only her second time on staying with a stranger - and she never missed a beat. She came back home calm and happy. Randy is her new home away from home.”

“I highly recommend Cheyenne as a pet sitter! Satchmo just stayed with her for two nights, and she was absolutely amazing with him. He was dealing with some nerves, but she was incredibly patient, worked right through his issues, and helped him completely relax. She also sent great photos throughout his stay to keep me updated, which I really appreciated. I couldn't be happier with the care she provided!”

“We had a fantastic experience boarding our dog Cleo with Katie!!! She was very communicative and sent us lots of updates and photos throughout the week. We knew Cleo was being loved and taken care of the entire time we were away. 10/10 experience!”

“Natasha was great! Easy and fast communication, lots of pictures of a happy dog when we were out of town. When our flights got delayed coming home, she was able to watch our dog for an unexpected additional half day, no problem. Would definitely recommend booking with Natasha as a dog sitter!”
“Shannon was wonderful! She was very responsive and she kept me constantly updated throughout the week, and I felt confident that Rowan was being completely spoiled through his entire stay. I will definitely be using her services again!”

Thank you so much for have patience with our girl! She didn’t have a good first boarding experience and since then we’ve been lucky enough to have friends/family wanting to keep her. So when we went on a family trip we had no clue what to do 😂 the updates were helpful and helped me relax that she was in good hands.

Ellen was a lifesaver for us. We made a last minute decision to travel to NOLA and had to scramble for a sitter at 10pm. Ellen responded immediately. I dropped off our dog the next morning and received multiple photos throughout the day. You can tell that Ellen loves animals and I was immediately at ease leaving my dog with a total stranger. Definitely recommend Ellen!

Caroline did an amazing job watching Tupelo! She was highly prepared, asked a bunch of questions, and was super attentive to our dog’s needs. We were out of town for almost two weeks and everything went smoothly. We got pictures and/or updates a couple of times per day, and Tupelo looked like she was having a better time on vacation than we were 😂 We highly recommend Caroline and have already planning Tupelo’s next stay with her!

Elvin is simply AMAZING !!! We have been with her for about two years now off and on when we leave town. Our sweet little Benny loves to go there because Elvin showers her with love and affection. We have used other sitters in the past, but none have compared to Elvin. Highly recommend!!

Kenneth is awesome, he came through with the videos and pictures and assured me that my Humphrey was happy and enjoying his stay. It made it so much easier to enjoy my vacation in New Orleans knowing my pup was in a safe fun environment with awesome Kenneth and a fenced yard. Will definitely rebook.

I cannot say enough good things about Grady. He was a wonderful pup sitter. Our girl is super anxious, and he was patient with her, giving her the space she needed until she warmed up. He sent photos at least twice a day of him walking and playing with Pinta. I hope he is available every time we go out of town. Thank you Grady!
Stacy is literally the best!! I am always nervous to leave Gigi with anyone however I really needed a sitter this time, so I put my trust into Stacy and she made me so comfortable! She’s very nice, her apt is clean, she sends plenty of pics and videos to update you on the stay and it truly shows that she loves animals. I will be having Stacy sit Gigi any time in need. Thanks for taking care of Gigi!

Mindy did a wonderful job taking care of Tucker. She kept me informed of how he was doing including pictures of his time with her. She treated him like he was her own and I am very grateful. As a bonus he found a new buddy in Cletus. Tucker will definitely be back anytime I need someone to care for him.
