“Adia was great with our two (2) fur boys. She’s very professional and communicated with us and sent pics with each visit, while we were out/town. Adia came once a day for 12 days and spent time with them, doing what they like doing, especially hanging on the front porch. She cleaned up the mess that they made from time-2-time and even did her best at wiping up our lil boy dog’s mark with urine (uhg🙄), when he did it! He knows better!! 🤦♀️ I would hire Adia again if I ever need another dog sitter in the future. Thank you . 🥰”

About: I’ve grown up with whole life with dogs, so I know the importance of taking care of your 4-legged family member(s) that are important in your life. I want to provide my services so that your fur baby is safe and comfortable in their own home, while you are alway from home. I’ve had small dogs such as jack Russell’s and as big as pit bulls in my family. No fur baby is too big or too small to love and care for. I am currently not working since I am finishing my degree in Nursing. The only work I have been doing is part-time babysitting and dog sitting on the side & weekends. I am mostly available weekdays from 8am-8pm. Weekends can be tricky for me due to other side jobs such as babysitting, so it just depends. Just ask if you have questions about any specific weekend. I currently have a recused pitbull-husky mix living in my home with me, that loves to play all day. She is recently just finished her heart worm treatment as of August 2025. We just started slowly becoming active again. Due to her circumstances, I have been able to learn more about pets medication and aiding in helping her through this process. Unfortunately, I can not have any pets in my home due to renting restrictions of no more than 1 dog. However, I am available to help with other pets medications and care for your fur pup in your home.
About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for animals and have over 10 years of hands-on experience working with dogs, including training and behavior. My experience extends beyond dogs as well—I’ve cared for horses, cats, birds, fish, goats, reptiles, rodents, and a variety of other animals. Dog training and behavior are a particular passion of mine, and I’m currently furthering my education in Animal Health and Behavioral Sciences with a focus on professional dog training. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities, including large, high-energy, strong-willed, and more challenging dogs. I understand that every dog is an individual, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, boundaries, and needs. My goal is not only to provide dependable care, but also to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re with me. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable maintaining training, structure, and routines that owners already have in place. I genuinely love seeing dogs thrive and seeing owners happy and confident in the care their pets receive. Whether your dog is an easygoing couch potato or has a little more personality to manage, I’ll treat them with patience, respect, and the same level of care I’d want for my own animals. I currently have a full time job, however, we do have long weeks and short weeks as well as working nights and days. I typically watch over friends and family’s pets on my short weeks but I can also be flexible on my long weeks as I live 5 minutes from my job. On the nights that I work, my husband will be home to aid in any extra care your pets may need. I have a fenced in yard, a little on the smaller side but I also offer to take dogs on walks and can bring them to the dog park as my 3 dogs love going there! My fur babies are super sweet and playful. If your pet needs crate training or potty training, I’m an expert as I’ve raised several puppies throughout my life. I also don’t mind giving your pet medication and/or supplements as my dogs get special food and supplements everyday! They are up to date on vaccines and flea, tick, dewormer is administered every month! While my house isn’t the biggest, I always make sure to make other pets feel at home and safe while they’re here.
“We had such a great experience with Mimi! She was super communicative and kept us updated with messages and photos, which made us feel so much better while we were away. She always let us know if she was going to be a little early or running a few minutes late, and we really appreciated that. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cat, and we came home to a happy, well cared for boy. We'd definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I have had cats, dogs and rodents since I was able to walk. I love all animals and cannot wait to meet yours! I currently have two cats, two rats and a leopard gecko. I am currently a student and I have plenty of time on my hands to take great care of any pet that you need! I attend school for a few hours a day and am free most of the time! I live in an apartment, but have no issues watching pets in your home! I could take in cats, but dogs might feel a bit cramped in my one bedroom apartment
“Olivia was great. I was updated multiple times a day. I received pictures and videos of my sweet boy Nyx. The overall experience was amazing. I do plan on booking with Olivia again if needed.”


About: I’ve had a pet my whole life! Growing up, we always had a dog (from a rat terrier to a boxer to a black lab)! I also have a cat of my own that I got a few years ago my little baby!! I love all animals and hope I can take care of them while you are away! I am currently in graduate school to be a speech pathologist and am looking for a part time job pet sitting! I love animals so much and would love to help out pet owners in any way I can bc I know how hard it can be to have time to take care of your little fur babies! I have clinic and classes throughout the week at various times but I am available most weekdays after 3-4pm and anytime on weekends! I make sure I have the best things for my pets at home! I live with my parents and our family dog and my cat! We have plenty of toys that we play with them with, I just bought my cat a new stainless steel water bowl bc I found that it’s better for their skin health, treats of course!, and a fenced back yard with plenty of space for our pitbull to get her zoomies out!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. I grew up with a lot of dogs and have recent experience with a cat of my own! I have extensive knowledge with dogs, especially puppies, and with potty training/training them. I also have knowledge of senior pets and have taken care of a few in the past. I also have experience with rescue animals, all of my own animals have been rescued. I have watched several dogs over the years and absolutely love it. I have many animals of my own including a Collie/Lab mix, Shih tzu, Husky/German shepherd mix and a tabby cat! I promise to provide the utmost care/love for your fur babies and treat them as my own! I’m currently a college student about to apply to nursing school, taking online courses currently so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am available Monday-Sunday at any available time for any needs you may need for your pet which includes walking, potty breaks, and meal time. To ensure the safety of your pet, I can safely crate if needed. I will also make sure that your pet is closely monitored at all times, adhere to their feeding/walking schedules, and separate animals safely if needed. I also know basic first aid for pets if something were ever to happen to your pet!
“Can’t say enough about how pleased I am with Laura’s service! I received prompts notifications about when she was going to see Blue and received pictures with every visit! I could tell clearly that Blue had a great time each day when she was visiting! Knowing that Blue was having a good time every day made it so much easier to be away on my work trip. I will absolutely be rebooking her again on my next trip!”

“Took such good care of crew. Excellent communications. If any issues arose, it was handled professionally and with care. The updates and pictures were wonderful, taking all the stress and worries away. She interacted with them every visit and they were very responsive towards her. Well use and highly recommend.”


“Needed someone for drop ins last minute and so thankful to have found Garrett!! Garrett was punctual, communication was consistent & thorough. He asked questions in order to get to know us and was enthusiastic about his time with Amber. They immediately got along and had a great visit each day. Thanks so much Garrett, we will definitely book with you again 😊”


About: I have had pets all my life, and still do. I also worked at 2 dog day cares and boarding facilities. I worked the front desk at a vet's office for 2 years. And I did animal rescue for a number of years. I have been working with animals for over 15 years all together. In that time I have had to work with a wide variety of pet personalities. I have sat for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, cats, and the occasional bird, pig, or reptile. I enjoy giving families the peace of mind that their furry family members are in good hands and getting the love and care they are used to while they are away. Please let me know if you have any questions for me. I look forward to hopefully working with you and your family. Working from home allows me to have a flexible schedule to take care of your pets needs when they need me. I am typically available to work around thier schedule. Taking care of your pets involves keeping to thier routine and making them feel like nothing has changed. Although I may spoil them a bit more than they are used to. But they deserve the extra love while their family is away.

“Emily was beyond considerate & patient with my fur babies (2 unruly kitties). The daily updates & glorious photos were incredibly comforting & reassuring. They got so spoiled! with love, treats & attention. I was away for 1.5 weeks & came back to a super clean house & happy kitties. I would highly recommend Emily for future reservations!”
About: ---> Sorry, I do NOT accept most spunky, young dogs Over 30 pounds. Most of the small pets I care for cannot physically handle playing with most dogs over 30 pounds. There's no setting for that weight on Rover. (Unless your pet is an elder and/or they're very mellow) <--- My name is Melissa (aka. "Missy"). I'd like to care for your precious pet the next time you need some help. Do you have somewhere to go, or something to do? Let me help you, at your place or mine!?! You can book your pet for a caring, one hour, drop-in visit to your home, a few overnight visits, or an extended stay at my house. Do you need help at the last minute ... ? No problem. I'm happy to provide pet transportation, if needed. I can also help you fulfill the rules & requirements at a "Pet-Friendly" NOLa hotel, when the rules say, “you cannot leave your pet in the hotel room alone”. I work from home as a bookkeeper & tax consultant - This means your precious pet will NEVER be left alone for long hours, whenever they're in my care. I will be at your pet's side, while you take care of business or if you have a fun get-away planned. I’m very comfortable with many different animals & dog breeds, including elderly dogs that need a mellow, safe space with calm, gentle care. I pay close attention to what your dog likes & dis-likes, along with their personality quirks & individual needs. I enjoy caring for all animals, both young & old. I do not accept more than 2-3 dogs at a time. ((I USUALLY only schedule ONE family's pet(s) at the same time, especially if there’s a new dog client)). I always put in a great deal of consideration, before scheduling more than one family's pet at the same time. My home is very spacious, clean, well-organized & safe. I have a large, gated/enclosed & secure, backyard. The dogs that stay with me are ALWAYS supervised. My eyes will be on your pet constantly, while we play at your home or mine, both inside & outside. Allow me to love & care for your precious pet, while you take care of you. Let's discuss your needs. I do offer one free meet & greet. Other than dogs, I also have experience caring for: Cats, Birds, Bunnies, Turtles, Lizards, Snakes, Hamsters, Fish, Frogs, Chickens & Plants. Most of my pet guests are small, therefore any extra frisky, playful pet, over 30 pounds may cause physical harm, even if they are just playing. I'd rather not take that chance. I work from home as a bookkeeper & tax consultant. I’m rarely away from the house for more than 2-3 hours. I will always keep my eyes on your pet, even when the pet is roaming around the backyard. My backyard has a 9 ft. high, wooden fence. I also have a double gated entry, front-yard patio. I can also provide crates if needed. My 20 pound dog is 8yrs. old and he is very mellow & well behaved. He always welcomes another dog friend, anytime. We have a trusted routine for introducing new pet guests.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 526 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Destrehan. 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 .

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
