About: I grew up feeding both my mastiff mix Lilly and cat Kitty and walking Lilly daily. In college, I took care of a husky-mix, walking and feeding him daily. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am available for walks and feedings and can come check on your pet any time. I have experience with crate-training and know and will always strive to respect your personal house rules. I understand each and every pet parent has their own special relationship with their pets and I want to honor that as best as I can.

“Lierin is the best! Our pup is always so happy when we come home after getting walks with her. She keeps us updated and takes great pictures. We know he is in great hands with Lierin!!”

“I am so happy to have met Kamarin. I’d like to think that my dog is a pretty good judge of character and he immediately fell in love with her! She is very responsive and keeps me updated, which is something that I really value. She will definitely be my go to person whenever I need someone to help out with my pup.”


“Brittany was able to help us on short notice with walking our dog while we were both sick. Her prompt communication made things very easy. Our dog can take some time to warm up to people but was immediately happy and comfortable with Brittany, which is not always the case. We'll certainly be repeat clients!”

For my clients I’m here to respect your wishes

“She is so awesome!!! My baby loves her I didn’t know he would actually listen he usually is scared of meeting new people but he was comfortable enough to listen to her I would definitely recommend her”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 7 years-old, and my parents told me our family dog was my responsibility. I have had six dogs of my own over the years, including one foster dog that I had for several years. I have dog sat for many of my friends and neighbors over the years, as everyone knows how much I love dogs! I currently work from home in New Orleans and spend all day with my loveable Golden Retriever, Louie! He gets along very well with other dogs and is happy to host them in his house and backyard. We would love to care for your best canine friend as well! I currently work fulltime from home so I am able to be home nearly all of the day with your dog(s). I will be at home on the computer or on the phone so your dogs will be with me almost all times of the day. I know what it's like to leave your dog babies with other people when you travel so I try to give them as much attention as I can. I'll also keep you well updated while you're gone as well.

Katharine S.
“Beginning with her first dog at age 6, Katie has been an avid dog lover. She was known as the girl who walked her dog everyday in our neighborhood. She helped train all her family dogs including the beagle they have now. All of these dogs were rescues so required more patience, understanding, and love than others. Katie fostered a senior dog while in college. She helped him adapt to being with people so that he was able to be adopted when he likely would not have found a home. She is an organized person who will attend to all details needed to care for your dogs. She will also play and have fun with them!”
