About: I have had my dog, Saraphina for 13 amazing years. She is what sparked my love for animals. I want the best for her as do I for every animal out in the world. I volunteer at Rolling River Rescue to help dogs find a home and walking them as much as possible. I walk my dog everyday as well as feeding her day and night. I give her lots of love as would I for any pet. Whenever I am not working, I volunteer at petsmart for Rolling River Rescue on saturdays. I will be able to care for your pet because I know that animals need patience and time to adapt to new people or surroundings. I want to give your pet the peace of mind that they are safe and not alone when their favorite person can’t be there. I have helped many animals that do not have homes open up to humans and receive the love they deserve.

“Olivia has done multiple drop in visits for me and my dogs while we are in town for hurricane relief work. We currently stay in a hotel about an hour away from work and work from the early morning till evening time. Olivia’s drop in visits has given us peace of mind knowing our dogs get to go potty, get a drink of water, and have a treat when she gets there in the middle of the day. We are so thankful we found a sitter that has been understanding, responsive, and flexible throughout the whole process. We are just sad we will be moving on to a different city soon and will have to find a different sitter. Thank you Olivia for all you have done for us!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals and pet sitting for friends and family from a young age gave me a strong foundation in providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, including feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in following instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure. As the owner of a reactive and anxious Labradoodle and a strong-willed Golden Retriever mix, I have firsthand experience working with dogs that require extra patience, awareness, and positive reinforcement. I’m familiar with clicker training techniques, leash reactivity management, and creating calm, positive experiences during walks and visits. Whether your pet needs exercise, attention, medication, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own pets. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have time for early morning or evening drop-ins during the week and open availability on weekends. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand the importance of following routines, administering medications correctly, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. As the owner of an anxious, reactive dog, I’m experienced in handling pets who need extra patience and attention. I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own, and I’ll keep you updated throughout every visit for added peace of mind.

About: I’ve been loving and caring for animals since my parents got me my bird at 2 years old. My absolute love and dedication to his care kick started my life of loving animals, starting out with volunteering for several years at Acadiana Animal Aid and fostering cats and dogs through them as well. I started dog walking and pet sitting at 11 and I’ve now taken care of more animals than I can list. I am extremely passionate about my love of all animals and I will treat your pets with the love and dedication I believe every animal deserves! I am a full time student at UL but I am open in the mornings, afternoons and nights! During the month of December I am on my winter break so I will be open with full availability during the weekdays and weekends. Whether you need your pets let out during the day while you’re at work or if you’d like them to be brought to the park or a walk around your neighborhood, I’m here for you! I have reliable transportation that is large enough to fit even the biggest of dogs. I also have plenty of experience with medically complex animals, so I’d be able to give medicine or help out in whatever way they would need!

About: I’ve grown up with 2 English bulldogs my whole life. I work at a dog daycare with every breed and size imaginable. I love animals I work park time at my dog daycare facility. But if you message me in advance I will make you and your beautiful pup my top priority! I currently do not own a pet but I always had my English bulldogs following me around my parents house so I’m always aware of my surroundings and making sure I didn’t step on them

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, so caring for them has always been something that feels natural and special to me. My love for dogs grew even more when I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, which is where I truly discovered how much I love working with animals. I’ve had hands-on experience with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including lots of puppies and senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog is different, and I love taking the time to learn their personality, routine, and what makes them feel most comfortable. I treat every dog I care for like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, loved, and happy while their family is away. :) I’m a full-time student and involved in my sorority, but I’m very devoted to making time for my clients and their furry friends! I’m happy to work pet care into my schedule and come by to give your pets the attention, love, playtime, and care they need. I’ll always do my best to be dependable and make sure your pets are well taken care of while you’re away. 🐾💕 I would always respect your home and your pet’s normal routine while caring for them. I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, or any other special needs. I know some pets can be nervous when their owners are away, so I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and comfort while keeping their environment safe and clean. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your furry friend is being cared for and loved while you’re away!

“We love Danielle, but more importantly, Marigold, Milo, Bella, Enzo, and Gia love her too! They all said she was fun, gave them lots of attention, and took the time to get to know them all. We just got home from a 10-day trip, and they’re all spoiled rotten, and asking for Danielle. She was also great with dripping faucets for an unexpected freeze, watering plants, and other freeze prep tasks. She sent great pictures! OMG! We laughed til we cried, seeing our silly babies trying to con treats from her. We 100% recommend Danielle for your precious animal friends and babies. We felt really safe and comfortable with her in charge.”

About: I have taken care of animals sporadically throughout the years. I have done everything from walking, playing, giving medicine, cleaning letterboxes, etc. I spend most holidays and weekend home making it the best time to help with pet care. I am a full time teacher, so mornings during the week are difficult. I am available: Wednesday and Friday afternoons Saturdays and Sundays Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays after 7pm. I have three pets of my own, so caring for any pets in my home is not possible, but visiting any client's home is much easier. Overnight stays will depend drastically on my schedule.

About: Ever since a kid animals have always fascinated me ! I loved playing and watching them grow as if they were my kids (which our pets are). I’ve watched dogs for coworkers and even friends , though the time was short many of the animals enjoyed their time with me being their sitter! I look forward to creating a special bond between me and your pet . Ensuring they feel safe and loved is what’s most important. Catering to your kiddos specific needs is what I do best . Whether it’s long walks , toy fights , or long baths , I’m down for the ride ! The world is such a beautiful place because of our animals why not love and cherish them .

My dogs are fed every morning. They are able to go in and out at they please throughly the day. I often take my dogs on car rides and play fetch and tug of war with them.

About: Hey hey Rover!! My name is Alexandra. I just started back up after 3 years, and I worked for Rover for about 5 years before! I am an actress, singer, and bartender living out of Lafayette, LA right now. :) I have lived in Atlanta (where I started with Rover) and I am from Memphis (where I worked ALOT for Rover)! I absolutely adore animals, and I take great care in providing for their needs, and I love going for walks myself. I am very much an outdoors woman, and once the Dalmatian (Eli) that I used to babysit ran/walked 2 miles with me, I figured out how to use up a lot of that energy! :) In my opinion, dogs (well animals in general) are little personalities, all different and unique, just like you and me. I will care for what is yours as though they were my own. Would love to talk more! I currently am a freelancer/contractor, so I can absolutely make the time for babysitting with your babe! My schedule is planned out pretty far in advance, and it’s flexible. :) I have a sweet, lovely, female 4 year old Ragdoll mix kitty, and she’s the absolute sweetest! Only dogs and male cats she’s ok with! I have a great space with a backyard against a tree line so I’ll make sure your babe is on a leash if we go out! I live on the first floor as well in a very safe quant apartment building. It’s not like the normal big apartment complex.

About: ​Your fur babies deserve the royal treatment, which is exactly what they get with me! I have hands-on experience working as a Veterinary Tech, with my roots going all the way back to sudsing up pups as a bather and kennel tech. I even built my own boarding haven, Elsie’s Boarding and Spa, in loving memory of my late partner Justin and my sweet rescue pup, Elsie. When your pets are with me, you can relax knowing they’re safe, spoiled, and loved like family. My daily schedule is dedicated to pet care, giving me plenty of availability outside of my children's school drop-off and pick-up hours. Because of this routine, I can offer consistent check-ins, daytime visits, and flexible drop-off or pick-up windows to easily fit your needs. With years of hands-on experience in veterinary care and animal wellness, pet safety is always my highest priority. I have handled everything from routine bathing and coat care to assisting in surgical procedures. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced, attentive, and loving hands.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Duson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 212 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Duson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Duson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Duson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
