Doggy Day Care in Desire, New Orleans

“My dog Sparky loves Des, she is the Best dog walker, very kind and thoughtful. So glad we found someone like her! Thank you Des your great!”

About: Being raised around many different dogs has taught me plenty. One specifically is that everyone has their own needs. I could provide your pet with personalized care just like at home. Some would consider me a mother of two dogs and a cat. I am a mother to all pets under my care, so welcome to the family! I'm currently in school online, I work part-time, so I'll have plenty of time for your pet! If you are interested or have any questions about my services, please feel free to contact me! Indoor playtime, outdoor playtime, treats (if ok with diet), toys, baths (if needed and ok with owner). Baths are only offered for boarding, not daycare.

“We were visiting New Orleans and decided to have our pup stay with someone so we could spend our last day out, not worrying about going back to let her out several times. We found Sarah last minute and she graciously accommodated us. We felt comfortable with her right from the beginning and she was fantastic with our Gracie! We got pictures and updates regularly throughout the day and Grace got 3 walks! We've had other sitters that only did 2 walks in a longer time period, so we were extremely happy that Sarah got her out so much. I wish we had found Sarah at the beginning of our trip! I highly recommend her and wish we were local so we could use her often. Thanks Sarah for a great job!!”

“First time using Rover. I wasn’t sure how I would feel leaving a piece of my heart with a stranger but Helena was wonderful! She sent me a video, photos and text messages. My pups were so happy when i picked them up. My one senior pup even ran back inside her house. I could tell they felt at home with her.”

“Fantastic sitter! I asked Amanda if she could watch our dog Luna pretty last minute, and I am so glad she accepted! Luna was well cared for during the day. I got updates on feedings, drinking, and walking times. Amanda is a total sweetheart and also sent us several update photos of our dog (cuddling up and looking totally relaxed with her). I definitely recommend her and will definitely use her services in the future for any of our dogs when in town!”

“Your pets will be so lucky to have Cali as their care giver. She is very patient and kind to animals. They are her "people" and the largest part of her tribe. Cali has more than basic knowledge of animal behavior, she is educated on animal first aid and communication. Because of her knowledge, she will be able to problem solve if the circumstances require it and will make the right choices for you and your family pets. She not afraid to get down on their level and connect with them in their safe space. My hope is that you not only allow your pack to get to know her but also you "leaders" as well. She is a very compassionate person who truly cares for all animals.”

About: I am an animal lover that have owned various pets growing up and as an adult, ranging from multiple dogs and cats, hamsters, rabbits, iguanas, and peacocks. Patience is key when you are handling and caring for animals. The first step is to establish trust, letting your pet know that I will care for them as if they’re my own fur baby. Although I work during the week day with a half day on Friday- I am available on Fridays after 2pm throughout the night and completely open availability on Saturdays and Sundays! * There are weekdays where I am off and will open availability. With having 11 years of military experience, I am confident that I will provide a safe environment for your pet. I will follow detailed instructions that I am given and have attention to detail when walking your dog to ensure top safety. YOUR PETS ARE AFRAID OR NOT FOND OF OTHER DOGS/CATS? No worries! I have the space and capabilities to keep them apart while ensuring all pets receive my undivided attention and lots of fur rubs!!!

“Last minute request for Michael to watch our pupper while we went for dinner. He was awesome and very accommodating. Gave great recommendations on where to eat! Bbq shrimp was amazing! Thank you!”

“Beautiful home and lovely lady! I was very happy with Charlie’s care! He was nice and tired when I picked him up after I got off work, I recommend Lindsey for any dogs care!”

“When asked to write a testimonial for Carē about my experience with her sitting for my dogs, I responded, “of course!” It’s hard to express how integral she’s been in helping me with my pups over the last two years. I went through a job transition (as did many people during COVID), but that meant very long/unpredictable hours. Most times I wasn’t able to get back in time to care for my pups the way they deserved, so I reached out to sitters in my area and came across Carē! She’s been flexible with my schedule, helped with potty training my youngest pup, and showed up when I just wasn’t able to. I’m glad that she’s found a platform to share this experience with other fur parents.”

“Hi my name is Martin D. and I’ve known Kenneth all my life. He’s a wonderful person and has always loved pets. He is a very caring person. As a young boy has always had dogs and cats around him. He is the best when it comes to pets.”

“I have known Rose for over 30 years. I own a pet sitting company in south Florida I would hire her for any type of pet. She is amazing with animals and loves to care for them. She has compassion and love and is able to follow instructions for feedings and some meds. Rose has had many pets including exotics she can handle tough situations and is very good at Communication. Her people skills are equally as good. She will make an excellent pet sitter Jan S president of Jan’s Paws inc.”

“Evlin took wonderful care of my Bichon, Chance. He was happy to see us at the end of the day, but he was relaxed with Evlin and her dog Juicy. She checked in with photos and texts, which made me feel better about leaving him. She totally deserves her five-star rating, and I recommend her w/o reservation.”

“I don’t know anyone who has a bigger heart for pets than Julita! She has been caring for her own pets for well over a decade and has treated them like actual human beings. Nothing is off limits when it’s come to making sure they feel safe, secure, entertained, well fed and have premium healthcare. She has had numerous visits with my dogs and they love to play when she comes around. Her warm personality is very welcoming to pets that she encounters that she doesn’t even know and her social work background makes her interaction with the pets’ owners chef’s kiss.”

“Ms Iryna and Mr Iurii took such a great care of my dog for a long weekend while away for the destination wedding: they constantly sent me pictures of Alisa ( my mix breed colli), and I could tell she was happy. So grateful for her stay)))”

“I have two pet turtles and Nekia babysits them while I'm on extended trips or even when I'm working a lot. I love my babies as if I pushed them out myself and she treats them as if they're her own. She has such good energy that even my turtles smile when they see her. Usually when people come over they hide in their shells but when they see Nekia the crawl towards her they just can't wait to see her and I wouldn't want anyone else to care for them.”

“Vanessa was great, very quick to respond to messages and was flexible with pickup/drop-off times. She sent a photo during our dogs stay and my pup was having a blast. Would try to get Vanessa again if we needed a dog watcher.”

“Helped watch my dogs in an emergency situation. So thankful! Sweet and friendly!”

“As a professional pet sitter myself, Joan has been my go to cat sitter for years and is the person I refer my clients to if I’m not available! My three can be a little high maintenance at times and Joan has always been so attentive, loving, and patient with them! Also having known Joan for years, I’ve watched her rescue, foster, and care for many large dogs as well. If I had dogs she would be the first person I’d ask to watch them!”

“Davida was so amazing with our two French Bulldogs! She kept them on schedule, and she constantly stays in contact with us. Our babies absolutely love her and so do we!”
