About: I’ve cared for animals for 10+ years as a shelter worker, vet tech, vet assistant and pet parent myself. I’m knowledgeable on diabetic care, senior care, pediatric training and socializing and much more! I’m able to fit your pets care anytime needed due to my open schedule! I’m usually up by 6:00AM to start caring for my mini zoo but able to get up earlier. Your pets safety comes first to me. If any meds are needed they will be given on time every time. You’ll receive as many updates or possibly more of your babies.
“Jamie immediately hit it off with Stan. She's friendly, was great with Stan, and takes dog care seriously! Looking forward to having her walk Stan again!”
“Courtney is great! She sent me tons of pictures of my pup , which always made my day! She was punctual, professional, and a great communicator. I knew my boy was in great hands when he was with her!”


About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments(mostly pets of my own ) I’m comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and cleaning up after pets, as well as providing a safe, calm, and attentive environment. I’m used to high energy or low energy dogs , patient with shy or anxious dogs. I’m currently working nights so my days are free and empty . I would love to have something I’m experienced and in love with to occupy my time . I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I care for. I make sure all pets are in a secure space, with doors, gates, and surroundings checked to prevent any risks or escapes. I closely monitor behavior and keep pets away from anything harmful, while also maintaining a clean and comfortable environment. My home itself isn’t fenced in that’s why I make dog parks, trails , or other play spaces a routine priority in my own pets lives

About: I used to work in the pet grooming industry from 2013-2021 bathing dogs and making sure the dogs in the daycare were being watched, taken care of, and having all the enrichment they need. I am willing to bathe and blow out dogs depending on size and fur type for a fair cost if you ask! I do have all equipment including a forced air dryer and I always have fabric on hand for bandanas 🥰 I dont have the service listed as I simply dont feel it fair for smaller dogs or dogs with short hair to overpay with the only option being 1 price. I have a dog and cat of my own and understand body language and behavior in both dogs and cats. I rescue my pets and typically grab the ones that may be overlooked and passed up. All my pets, including my late dog, the lab in photos, all have medical needs and requirements ranging from gastrointestinal issues to neurological. I am familiar and comfortable with giving medication. Its very important for me that my pets are in excellent health so I completely get it when an owner is not wanting extra snacks or a walk to be skipped! As someone who recently experienced a senior dog in my home, i am very understanding and patient with elderly pets. I am also in the hobby of fish keeping and have some exotic critters like hermit crabs 💞 I have been a stay at home wife and mother since 2021. My day starts with letting my dog out to potty after the long night then straight to feeding my dog and indoor cat. I then go and check on all my tanks, counting critters, making sure everyone in tanks is good and turning lights on. My dog goes out several times a day and outside of errands and the occasional day out with friends, I am always home to make sure there are plenty of potty breaks. In the evenings I feed all the tank critters, and double check to make sure everyone is well before I shut tank lights off and feed my dog and cat. Finally, my dog goes potty 1 last time before bed! I do hace a fully fenced in backyard but anytime we leave the property, we ensure all pets are leashed. I do not let my dog outside unsupervised and no dog in my care will ever be outside unsupervised for any amount of time regardless of the fence. I have 3 cameras for my backyard that i minitor constantly as well. I belive in always leashing a pet in public and never approaching other pets whether it be with or without a leashed pet of your own. If a dog is a known puller on walks, i do prefer to walk with a slip lead. I do have crates in the home along with built in gates. During boarding, my dog stays in the bedroom and office areas, and our guest dogs stay in the living areas. Any dogs in my care must be up to date on all vaccinations and flea medication, must not jump gates or fences, and must be crate trained and potty trained. These are all for safety reasons and to make sure things go as smoothly as possible for everyone involved.

About: I’ve look after many pets with different needs over the past few years. I love all animals and am able to take care to any special attention they may need. I am a college student currently at home for part of the summer and eagerly looking for work. My schedule is extremely flexible and open.

“Sydney was great! She agreed the night before to come over to potty my babies. She sent pics and loved on them while I was at work.”
About: Hi! I would love to help take care of your sweet pups! I have a dog of my own and we love to explore parks in Shreveport and the surrounding area. I'm in school, and I have some time off to study for a big test, so I get to make my own schedule. I can be available to come walk your pup pretty much whenever. I have a dog and a cat, who stay inside my condo. Because my dog is pretty active, we go on a long walk every day so he can get his exercise.
About: My lifelong journey with animals began on a farm, where 4-H and showing sheep taught me the responsibility required to keep animals healthy and well-cared for. After a 20-year career as a project manager in the tech industry, I am now following my true passion: caring for animals! Whether you have a spunky puppy or a gentle senior needing extra patience, I provide a calm, structured environment tailored to their unique personality. My home is a quiet sanctuary where my two friendly Shih Tzu mixes love welcoming new friends to our secure, fenced-in garden. They will get the grand tour and lots of playtime or sunny garden naps, depending on their preference. I specialize in creating a low-stress environment for dogs who might feel anxious in new places. From senior pups needing a slow pace to high-energy dogs looking for a walk, your fur babies will be treated like members of my own family. Most of my work is from home, so I can spend a great deal of time with your fur babies. I'm rarely out of the house more than an hour to run an errand if I'm watching a dog for the entire day. Daycare Service: I generally only take 1 dog per day, unless dogs happen to already live together (siblings for instance). I do this in order to provide the best experience and time with your pets. Please note that current fee is set for UP TO 8 hours of care. There is an additional charge added beyond 8 hours, if required. In my home, I provide a low-stress environment designed for the comfort of smaller breeds (under 30 lbs). Since I have two small-breed dogs myself, I ensure vet records are up to date and request the same of visitors. I provide frequent photo updates so you can see their 'day at the garden' in real-time. For Drop-In Visits (Cats & Dogs): For home visits, my priority is maintaining your pet’s existing routine to minimize anxiety. For Dogs: I focus on a productive potty break, fresh water, and a 'sniffari' (a mental-stimulation walk) or indoor play. For Cats: I focus on their specific social needs—whether they want active play with a wand or just a calm presence nearby while I refresh their food and litter. I always perform a home security check before leaving (ensuring doors are locked and water bowls are full) and leave a detailed 'petdate' on how they behaved and what we did. Dog Walking: Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and the weather. Growing up on a farm, I am hyper-aware of animal body language and surroundings. I practice 'defensive walking,' meaning I am always scanning for other off-leash dogs or distractions to keep your pup safe. I also pay close attention to Shreveport’s heat; I check pavement temperatures and ensure we stay hydrated and shaded. After our walk, I’ll wipe their paws and make sure they are settled back in safely.
“Brianna has been great! She’s very responsive and communicates with us well. And she’s very good with our 9 month old German Shepherd, and quite forgiving since her puppy energy can make her a lot to handle. We’ve had an issue with her jumping, and Brianna reached out to us to help solve the issue. Highly recommend, and we will continue to use her as a dog walker while we’re here!”

“Emily is wonderful! She kept me updated on my pups health & wellness, I felt at ease on my trip knowing I had someone who genuinely cared for my dog in my absence. I would 100% book with Emily again! I HIGHLY recommend!! Thank you Emily!!”

About: I have had 2 golden retrievers in the last 15 years, currently a 3 year old and a previous dog that lived 10 year. I have taken care of old dogs and puppies and love all dogs! I am not working so I will be able to be at home whenever needed. I have a 8-5 job that is less than a mile from my house so I can run home for any reason. Almost never work on the weekends. I live in Broadmoor with a fenced in backyard. I have a 3 year old golden retriever that is playful and would love to have a friend!
“Jennifer went above and beyond while watching our dog, Sammy! She sent a ton of pictures and updates while we were gone. I would highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi there! I’m a proud pet parent to my sweet Bulldog, Ruca, and "cow cat," Magic. I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years—from playful puppies and kittens to mellow seniors—and I love getting to know each pet’s personality. As a fellow pet parent, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet as if they were their own. I strive to provide that same level of care, attention, and affection. Every pet is unique, and I’ll take the time to learn what makes yours happiest. If your pet requires special care or accommodations, I’m happy to tailor my approach to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I have a flexible schedule that lets me spend quality time with your pets and easily accommodate their routines, whether that’s in the morning or evening. I share my home with my dog, Ruca, and my cat, Magic. If your pet stays with us, I’m happy to provide a separate space or crate for your pet if you prefer.
“Rachel is an excellent dog walker! She is highly responsive, flexible, always punctual and very energetic. Our dog Ally gets a great work-out on her walks with Rachel. Highly recommend.”
