“Desirae is awesome! She took such great care of my fur babies and I had no fears about being away from them. I am so grateful to have had her to ease my mind while I was out of town. Thank you!”
“Repeat booking with Nicole. He was wagging his tail and excited when I dropped him off. My dog doesn’t like dog food and she was also able to get him to eat more food. She’s awesome.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who will provide enthusiastic and reliable care for your pup! I grew up caring for my family’s dogs, riding horses, and pet sitting for my neighbors’ dogs and cats. Now that I work from home, I have time to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. My fiancé and I have a fenced in backyard where your dog can enjoy outdoor time, and our terrier mix, Clementine, will be happy to make a new friend! I also have experience with senior dogs and understand that older pups may need a little extra comfort and care. Since I work from home, pet care is a part of my daily routine. Your dog will have plenty of company during the day! I’m able to provide potty trips, backyard time, walks, and pets routinely. My dog is absolutely a part of the family, and your pup will be too when they stay with me. Please be detailed with care notes or any special needs as I want your dog to feel at home when they’re with us.
“Jessica (and Poppy) were so great. This was Butternut's first ever time away and I never worried at all while he was with Jessica. She kept me updated and you can tell she's professionally worked with and is comfortable with all sorts of dogs. She's who I'll leave Butternut with every time I need to if I'm able”
“Elsa was amazing! She took such great care of my dogs while I was away and kept me updated with frequent messages and pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pups were in such good hands. I could tell they were happy and well cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking with Elsa again!”
“Alyssa was fantastic with our hyper boy! She was fast to respond with any questions we had and gave us the peace of mind using Rover for the first time and gave our pup the best time in New Orleans. It was so nice for him to have the freedom of her backyard to run and play and poop without fear! Flynn HIGHLY recommends and if we are ever in NOLA again, we will definitely reach out!”
“This was our first time boarding Hunter. I was nervous at first because we’ve never left him with anyone before, but Jas made me feel comfortable and at peace. We appreciated the pictures. Thank you Jas for caring for our Hunter!”
“Olena and her family welcomed my dog into their family for the weekend and kept me up to date with lots of photos and videos of her so I was never worried or in the dark about her care! She got to run and play all day and got lots of attention, will for sure be booking again next time I am out of town!”
“Cindy graciously accepted my last minute booking when we realized our dog couldn’t fly on the plane. It was a great experience and she took good care of our dog. We will rebook with Cindy if needed.”
About: I have many years of pet care experience! I grew up with two dogs and a cat and I care for all creatures with love and compassion. I have been formally pet sitting and house sitting for 10 years. I am currently a graduate student studying art and I have a lot of flexibility during the mornings, evenings, and weekends for pet care. I have a car and love zipping around town to provide walks or meals! I love taking walks and exploring neighborhoods with the furry friends. My home is very pet friendly with a fenced-in back yard and plenty of inside space to occupy. I can easily accommodate crate trained animals as well. If you needed me to stay with your animals at your home I would treat your home with great respect and I take that responsibility very seriously.

“Dex was very sweet to my girls especially Raven, my shy girl. They were very patient with her and provided her with the comfort needed for Raven to get comfortable. My girls were treated like family with Dex, and that is all I can ask for. This was my first time leaving my girls with a stranger rather than family, and I was very nervous. Dex has melted away those nerves. I plan on using their services again for another upcoming trip.”
About: I volunteer at the animal shelter every weekend. In my four years at the shelter I have pet, snuggled, walked, played with, feed and cleaned up after 100s of cats, dogs, puppies and kittens. I am currently working part-time from my home so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I am an early riser and have a back problem that improves while moving my body. I will happily take your pet on morning and afternoon walks to get some sunshine and move our bodies. I have a large home with a small fenced in yard. The home can be separated into different sections by shutting doors. This allows me to give your dog space and alone time at your request. Additional I am a trained dog walker. I use both leashes and leads to ensure dogs are safe and properly secure prior to leaving for a walk. In our home there is one sweet cat who is curious about dogs and shows no aggression when they approach. He is a big dumb marshmallow. We share our yard with a mild-mannered corgi who loves to play; if interested I can arrange playdates for your furry-baby during their stay. I have a soft spot for senior dogs.

We were so nervous leaving Charlie for the first time, but Stacy was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped Charlie off, Stacy was incredibly warm, professional, and attentive. We received daily updates and photos/videos, which instantly put our minds at ease. It was clear our pup was being loved and cared for just like family. We highly recommend and will definitely book with Stacy again!
Randy is great with my two dogs! One became ill while In his care & I was out of state- he did a wonderful job of giving meds & keeping my mini poodle feel better. He is always responsive & has a relaxed energy with the dogs. They definitely like being in his care! 5 Stars
Brie was absolutely amazing! 🥰 From the moment I dropped him off, she made me feel completely comfortable. She kept me updated throughout his entire stay with pictures and sweet text updates, and I really appreciated knowing how he was doing. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding with my early schedule and even worked with me when my pickup time changed. That meant a lot and made everything so much easier. He seemed to have such a great time with her and was clearly comfortable and happy during his stay. You can tell Brie genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave him. ❤️❤️❤️ I would definitely recommend Brie to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust. I’d absolutely book with her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our experience with Lori was great! This was our first time ever leaving Gunner. We were very anxious but Lori and husband love for dogs was obvious from the first meeting. Although it was new being away from us, he was taken such great care of by them. We will be using them again for sure! We appreciate the loving care provided for Gunner. Thanks Lori!
Siraaj treated my pup like she was her own. It’s clear she really cares about providing quality care and attention to the dogs that she sits. She consistently sent video and picture updates throughout my dog’s stay. Definitely will be requesting her next time I need a pet sitter.
Julia is the absolute best! With very short notice, she was willing to take in my dog for a medical emergency and cared for her with above and beyond being an understatement. I recommend her for the care of your dogs. She sends photos, gives updates, asks questions, and truly loves them! Such a terrific person all around.
Beth was a great sitter. She agreed to a last minute dog sit after a quick "meet and greet". I was happy to have the meet and greet, since I had cautioned her that our 86 pound puppy was very, very, energetic and loved to jump on people. After meting Hank, she accepted the challenge. Hank came back from the 2 night stay happy and tired. Charlie, Beth's small dog, was a great playmate for Hank. I will be using Beth again
Parnay was absolutely amazing with my pug, Zeke. From the moment we connected, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful he is with animals. Zeke was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Parnay kept me updated, treated Zeke like his own, and went above and beyond to make sure all of Zeke’s needs were met. It’s obvious he has a natural way with dogs and truly understands their routines and personalities. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust Parnay again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and exceptional pet caregiver. Thank you, Parnay, for taking such great care of Zeke! 🐾

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 .
