Dog Walkers in Ethel, LA

About: I have always had animals, especially dogs growing up. I have experience with senior dogs as we have one at present. A part schnauzer, "Betty" who is very spoiled. We have been boarding/pet sitting dogs for about 3 years now. We have a very large yard, total of 7 acres, with a large portion of it fenced in. They have plenty of room to roam amd will get play time often as my children love dogs also. Someone is always at home so your furbaby wont be alone much if at all. We would love the opportunity to meet and love your fur baby and thank you for considering us. I work part time nights and my teenage daughter is homeschooling so someone is always at home. We are a very physically active household so your furbaby will get lots of play/walk time if needed. I have a large fenced yard and one indoor dog that will keep your dog company. If your furbaby needs to be crated at night we can do that but most usually just sleep with the kids or on the couch.

About: Lauren and I have always had family pets since we were kids. As adults, we cared for our own pets and the pets of family and friends. We've cared for dogs of all sizes and ages and are aware of dietary restrictions that many pets have. We always ask questions to get to know you, your home, and your pets to ensure that we a re providing a safe, respectful sit for all involved. We live full time in a converted van that we've used to travel the US for the past year. We shoot media for music festivals and bounce from festival to festival! With the winter coming, we decided to settle down into our new favorite city. We can't wait to meet you and your pets! While caring for your pet, my wife and I will be home most of the day as we'll be working remotely. We are available for the majority of the day to attend to your pets needs including walks, play, snuggles, and feeding. We are used to morning and afternoon feeding and walks with dogs. We are typically up around 7 am so animals who are early risers are not a problem. If sitting in your home, know that we are clean, respectful, and recognize that we are guests in someone else's home and your home and animals will be treated as such.

About: I have a Bachelors degree in Animal Science and will be attending vet school in August, 2026. I have over 4 years of experience working as a vet tech/kennel assistant at a small animal vet clinic and doggy daycare. I also have 6 months of experience at an emergency vet clinic. I have administered medications to pets and have experience with pets of all ages. I have always had dogs and cats of my own as well. I currently work part time at a small animal vet clinic, so I will be able to do drop in visits on my half days/days off, before work, after work, and during lunch breaks. It is my goal to make sure that your pet gets the quality care that it needs while you are away. I am experienced with leash-walking dogs and training dogs with positive reinforcement. I am very diligent when it comes to ensuring that your pet has a safe and clean living space, and that all of their needs are met. I have experience giving medications to pets, and have a broad understanding of animal behavior.

About: I am a Least intrusive minimally aversive dog trainer, and AKC evaluator. I foster with multiple rescues. I have experience working with all types of dogs. I am very knowledgeable on dog body language, behavior, and genetics. You can also visit us on instagram for pictures of past and current boarding pups, and don’t forget to send us a message on Instagram with the word “Rover” to unlock an exclusive discount Avalon.k9s I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself, I spend my free time training dogs, and when I’m busy I’m also training dogs. I have a whole room in my house dedicated to dogs, but they’re welcome anywhere in the house, I have a fenced in yard and I’m located close to some lakes. I have tons of unique enrichment opportunities for your pups, including things like snuffle mats, puzzles, kongs, and more. My house is puppy proofed, because I often foster and train dogs! Being a multiple dog household I cannot board any dog with same sex aggression, human aggression, or idiopathic aggression, and reactive dogs will be a case by case basis, However, being a trainer I am more than open to help families work through these issues. Please let me know of any medical conditions or allergies! I like to use treats when working with dogs, so I recommend bringing some yummy high value treats so their tummy doesn’t get upset! If you are interested in dog training and would like to do a Board & Train contact me for more details! I also offer training packages during boarding, so if you want your pup to work on some basic obedience feel free to ask for more info!

About: I have been the go-to professional and friend for pet care and house-sitting for many. My goal is always to give your pet and home the same care and consideration I would my own. I have had pets since I can remember. My first pet was a jet black cat resembling the color of a raven. I learned and practiced numerous pet care tactics which allowed my cat to live a very fruitful life to 20 years old. I also had a delightful Bischon with a spunky personality that was always the life of the party. I am no stranger to large size or senior age pets, but am also well acquainted with service dogs. I have experience with pigs, fishes, snails, but my most favorite of all horses! I truly enjoy engaging with furry loved ones and giving them the tender care they obviously deserves! I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your fur baby lots of attentive care, playtime, and mental stimulation by providing activity throughout the day. I have a fenced-in yard with ample space and love to go for strolls around the neighborhood and local parks. I love to play games and engage throughout the day.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, ducks, chinchillas, and squirrels. I have 4 of mine own very spoiled pups, 2 cats that stay in the home, and several chickens and rabbits. I am a full time pet sitter and I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pups. I have four pups that can keep your pups company as well. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run around in plus full access to the sofa for cuddles and cool down time. I have a crate available if it is needed as well.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was little—they’re my favorite thing on this earth. I started pet sitting 2 years ago and it’s been a joy ever since. I provide feeding, watering, walks, bathroom breaks, medication if needed, and even overnight stays to ensure your pets get the best care possible. I only go to school 3 days a week and not for long at all, so my school schedule never interferes with my pet sitting schedule! I have a fenced in yard and 2 small dogs at home! My dogs do not have any problems with other dogs but I do keep them separated from other peoples dogs just in case! I never let them out my site at mine or a clients home.

“Cheyenne is always up for taking Maisie on a new route and letting her set the pace (her favorite thing). We love that Cheyenne always sends cute photos from their adventures and gives a detailed report about what happened. Cheyenne is the best!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for around 5 years. Just recently became a dog mom, it’s a challenge at times, but all they want is love. I’m currently self employed, so my schedule is very flexible and I can easily move my schedule around to accommodate if necessary for your fur baby. My backyard is fenced. So your baby can roam a little outside. I also have doggy beds/ blankets/ pads. I can also provide food if preferred.

About: My love for animals began at a young age. I still remember walking into the toy store, seeing a costume equipped with a stethoscope and stuffed dog, and saying to myself that I want to care for animals one day. And today, I find myself doing just that. I am now a veterinary technician and have been working in the field of veterinary medicine for about 3 years now. I am not only experienced in the basic care needs of your pets but am also skilled in ensuring their health and wellbeing while in my care. I am lucky enough to work at an animal hospital that is within minutes of my home and have the ability to go back every day during my lunch break to care for my own fur babies as well as any others that are currently in my care. I am also fortunate to have the weekends off where they are all able to have my undivided care and attention. I am spending my time with animals from the time I get out of bed every morning to the time that I fall asleep every night. Let's just say it is my absolute favorite hobby. No matter if we are in an enclosed space or not, you can ensure your pet will be properly monitored and secured at all times. Whether that means we become the best of friends and stay together at all times and/or are harnessed and leashed (or slip lead if no harness is present) when outside, you can rest assured that your fur baby is in the best of hands.

“Loved her, great job with Brock!”

About: I have 2 dogs. A Labmix and Siberian Husky. I have taken care of my dogs since they were puppies. We love to play and go for long walks, sit around, relax and do tricks for fun. The care I provide will depend on the dog’s needs. I am willing to work with any dogs. I’m calm around dogs. I knows what dogs think before they do. I know what they would want. Knowing when they don’t want to be bothered is a key factor in caring for dogs. You want to build trust so you’ll be able to form that unbreakable bond. I’m firm when my dogs want something that they know they should not have. I can be reliable when needed the most. I can travel to you when needed. Also I just genuinely love animals. I currently work in the morning and go to school twice a week. I’m able to do whatever it is needed for your fur babies. I will do everything that the clients request to provide the upmost service as possible and will provide additional love and care while providing requested services.

About: I’ve raised my dog, Tino, since I’ve been 10! I’ve gone through all the stages from a pup to now a senior dog. I am also currently studying to become a DVM so I love all furry friends! :) I have 100+ volunteer hours at animal shelters and I currently work part time at a pet boarding facility. I’m free mostly every weekday and anytime on the weekends. I usually take pets out 3-4 times a day for potty breaks. I love every pup size and I’ll enjoy snuggling with them or running around with them! I have a fenced backyard with a super chill senior dog that would love to meet other animals. We have a very calm home so no loud noises or disruptions. I also have a crate for small to medium dogs if needed.

About: I would love to be a sitter and playmate for your dog or cat. Animals are therapy for me and is I'd love to earn a little money helping you out. I've had the three dogs in my life, Queen, Smoky and King. I worked at Petsmart for two years and helped open the first location in Louisiana. I left to attend LSU and I got my Bachelors of Science in Agricultural Business where my love of animals expanded. I am knowledgeable about dogs, pets and animals and I love to learn more. I absolutely love dogs and animals and would love to make friends with your pet. I'm flexible and fun and would really like to be there for your family. My home is pet friendly and just waiting for fury guests. I am applying to graduate school so I am usually at home and I do some work from home so my availability is super flexible. I have a one bedroom apartment and I live alone so there is plenty of room for play and roaming for your animal. I love to walk and explore the city so basically if needed I know how to wear dogs out. I am very good at allowing dogs to be who they are and anticipate their needs and wants. .

About: I find pet sitting to be one of the most fulfilling ways to spend my free time. I have been pet sitting for the past seven years and absolutely love it! I am available Monday - Friday after 5:30 PM and will be fully available on weekends. My lunch breaks during the week are flexible so I can do mid day check ins if needed! Unfortunately, my apartment has a strict no animal policy so I can’t facilitate overnight boarding. I will gladly visit your home for walks or feeding check ins!
