“Stephanie was the best!!! My pups seemed totally chilled and happy when I got home after being gone for almost a week. I would definitely use her again!”


“Sydney provided excellent last minute care for our fur babies. She sent us photos while we were away and made sure both pets got a lot of love.”

“Megan did a great job house and cat sitting for our 4 cats over a 10 day vacation! She was able to give meds to one and sent pics during the week of what they were up to.”

“This was the 3rd time we’ve used Brianna and we are so happy we found her. She is completely relaxed with our puppy and I don’t worry at all when he’s in her care. She provides updates and pictures often. She will continue to be our first choice when we need puppy sitting for Niko.”

About: I had a dog for seven years, and I took care of him like he was my own until he passed away. Since then I’ve been volunteering at the Humane Society, and I take care of a variety of dogs there on Saturdays. When I go to college next year, I’m going to for pre vet studies I used to volunteer on Saturdays for the morning shift at the Humane Society. I’ll be available to walk dogs, pet sit and stay week nights while on breaks from school. I have catsat my sisters cat for a week while she was out of town. I am a regular sitter for a client outside of my family. She is my mothers co worker and has 1 cat and a toy poodle. I can change the litter, put out fresh food, have playtime and cuddle. I also clean up any messes made by the animal and/or myself. With dogs I make sure to have time outside with walks and playing in the backyard. I treat every pet with kindness, and it’s very important for them to connect with me and gain trust. At the Humane Society, so many dogs are neglected and above cleaning their cages and feeding them, what they really need is quality time. I am patient with new animals to gain their trust. I let them come to me then slowly start to pet and play with them. I let them into my personal space and do enjoy cuddling and playing with cats and dogs.
“Lidda, was amazing. We have three dogs and one just will not eat when he’s boarded, we gave this a try and it was awesome. She came a few days prior to us leaving to meet the pups and get to know the house and their routines. She looked out for them as if they were her own, communicated with us near daily and we got lots of pictures. The first time We’ve ever returned from an extended trip and our boy was the same weight as when we left. We will only use Rover/Lidda from this point forward.”

They have had had in home training and can do tricks that they love to perform.

My priority will always be the safety of the animals and myself while ensuring trying to fulfill the owner’s wishes.

About: Thanks so much for giving my family the opportunity to be the “home away from home” for your precious pets! I am a 40+ year old married, stay-at-home mom with a 17 year old animal loving son and a husband that is in the medical field which is an added measure for health safety when dogs are staying at our home. We share our home with our two female Dachshunds that live for car rides. I am an active volunteer with the National Great Pyrenees Rescue and foster Great Pyrenees rescues so I am used to all types of behaviors/personalities with different dogs and helping them to all get along together under one roof, even if just temporarily. I have plenty of experience as well as good instincts and judgement where dogs are concerned; thanks to so many years of rescue work and a lifetime of having dogs in my home. I live in south Bossier in a small and quiet gated subdivision. I have 6 foot vinyl fencing around my backyard which provides a safe area for visiting dogs to be able to run around and play. We also have a small doggie door. My family does everything possible to make sure that every dog that comes to our home is comfortable and as happy as can be. They will get the run of the house and can lay/sleep anywhere that they want... just like our own dogs. We have plenty of toys, chews, and treats for our visiting dogs. At my house, we work together as a family to take the best care of your dogs because we know how much they mean to you- just like our dogs mean to us: they are our world! My husband is in the medical field so he is able to assist with any special needs that a visiting dog may have and my 17 year old son has plenty of energy that helps with keeping dogs entertained while in our home. I am a stay-at-home mom to a teenage son which means I have a very flexible schedule and I am home with dogs most of the day. Safety is always my main priority when I am with your dogs. Whether your dog is staying at my house or I am doing drop-in visits at your house, I am focused on their safety.

About: I’ve been caring for Dogs for the last 12 years from all kinds of breeds. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding with their schedule, and keeping them active and happy!

“Sarah and Nick did a great job house sitting and carrying for our senior dog- Lucy. Sarah committed to watching Lucy like 3 months ahead and although she relocated during that time she maintained her commitment and showed up to house sit! This day and age it is hard to find people that will be true to their commitments.”

Elizabeth was amazing! She took such good care of my dog, sent me pictures, took him on walks, and was giving me updates. My dog immediately loved her when he met her. She has such a sweet, loving demeanor and is so responsible and truly cares about animals. I cannot speak highly enough about Elizabeth!!
