Dog Walking French Settlement

About: I’ve always had a passion for nature and animals you can find me taking my dog out on a trail hike every weekend! I’ve had multiple dogs in my life and know how to handle a variety of breeds (border collies, terriers, and larger dogs.) Animals are angels in my eyes and I hope to be able to take care of your angel and give you peace of mind and a carefree day! I currently attend LSU, so my schedule fluctuates depending what my classes require or if I have a test scheduled or even acting performance. Currently, I attend LSU on Tuesdays & Thursdays! I’m highly committed to my studies in wildlife conservation and resource management! I prefer not to host dogs in my house due to being a college student, but the app requires a response to be a sitter.

About: I've worked at dog daycares for 3 years as well as pet grooming! I also plan on studying environmental/animal science soon! Animals are my passion!! Currently working part time as well as studying online! So I have plenty of open space and time to care for your fur baby! I walk each morning and love being outdoors! I have a large yard and plenty of land and a friendly neighborhood to walk your fur baby!! I can easily kennel pets and have experience in spoiling and corrective behavior!

About: I have taken care of my grandmother's dog for two years. I picked him up in the morning and dropped him off in the afternoons. I work night shifts most days so I am available to care for your pets at any time before 5 pm, and can come any day. I have had many dogs through out my life. I walked a Grate Dane to a schnauzer. I have also walked two dogs at once.

About: I’ve had animals all my life from dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats, turtles, ferrets, and many others! I have a lab and a cat. I have had almost every breed from small to large. I just thought with my free time, I could help others care for their pets while away. I have a lot of free time. I do have 4 kids all in sports, but I will keep my schedule updated as much as possible. If your pet is an inside animal, they will be welcomed in my home. If they are outside, I do have a wireless fence and kennels if needed. I live down a dead end road.

About: Hi, I'm Terrie! I'm the person your pets will accidentally like more than you and may file a formal complaint when I leave. Don't worry, they'll still be thrilled when you come home! I'm basically a part time butler, snack distributor, belly rub technician, professional poop scooper, personal paparazzi and a humble servant to whichever four legged CEO is currently in charge. If it has paws, claws, wings, or a personality bigger than its body, I'm probably going to adore it. Pet care is truly a family affair in our home. My family is very hands on and shares my love of animals, which means your pets get plenty of extra attention, affection, care, and at least three separate rounds of “who’s the cutest?” commentary. I’m the proud human of 2 huskies, 10 cats, 2 chameleons, and a fish crew - so chaos, cuddles, and a little bit of fur are basically my normal. In our house, dishing out treats is an Olympic sport, and I am absolutely going for gold. I’ve mastered the art of negotiating with pups and earning cat approval. My mission? Keep tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and pet parents completely worry free. I'll send plenty of updates, lots of adorable photos, and return your pets happy, loved, and only slightly convinced they've hired me as their new personal assistant. New Pet Friends = Mandatory Meet & Sniff! 🐾 I have one tiny rule: every new pet friend gets a meet & greet before we make things official. I like to let your pet decide if I'm worthy of joining their staff, and hopefully earning a tail wag, nose boop, or dramatic cat stare of approval. It's the perfect time to learn their routines, favorite treats, secret hiding spots, and any adorable quirks - so when booking day arrives - we're already best buds! Travel Policy: If you're more than 15 miles away, there's a $10 travel fee per visit will be added to help keep my gas tank as happy as your pets. I have an embarrassingly open schedule. Rain? No problem. Sunshine? Even better. I'll happily brave the weather for potty breaks, neighborhood adventures, epic games of fetch, or a cuddle session worthy of an Olympic medal. Your pets set the agenda - I'm just their very enthusiastic assistant. Life loves to throw curveballs, so I do my best to accommodate last minute schedule changes whenever I can. Whether you're stuck at work, planning a spontaneous getaway, or your meeting magically turned into "one more hour," I've got you covered. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, feathery, or suspiciously crunchy - I love them all. I've cared for everything from tarantulas and snakes to rabbits and hedgehogs, so I don't scare easy. Your pet will be treated like royalty, spoiled beyond reason, and lovingly convinced this is their all inclusive vacation resort. Belly rubs? Unlimited. Snacks? Duh. Personal fan club? Already formed. I'll happily accept my role as their humble servant while they run the household.

“Very pleasant and available when needed. Happy to have her walk Behr!”

About: I have been taking care of animals, specifically dogs and cats, since I was around 12 years old. My parish does not have an animal shelter or any service to help with strays so I began to take them in (I was basically fostering them). As I grew up my love for them never stopped growing. I worked at an animal shelter in college. I gained experience working at a grooming/boarding facility, and I also have had a little bit of experience in a vet’s office as a tech. I currently have 5 dogs of my own ranging in sizes XXL (100lbs)-XS (8lbs). They are like my children to me! My boyfriend and I also have 7 chickens and plan to hatch more soon. We also feed all the strays cats around our house and will never hesitate to help any animal in need. My main focus will be on dog walking and check in visits, as well as overnight stays. I would be happy to provide a bath and brushing, toe nail clipping, and anything else needed! Spending my days with animals seems to best way to do it to me. I can walk dogs any day of the week! My times available for walking are 6:00am-5:00pm. I am available to go check in on them any day as well. My availability for overnight stays is the same, reach out to me any day of the week! While your pet is in my home they will be my main focus and be with me basically 24/7! If they are comfortable with car rides they can come with me on any errands I need to do. I can also come to your home and watch your fur baby! I will follow any schedule you give me for them and try to figure out the best way to cater to their needs. Whether that be laying on the couch watching TV, taking a walk around the neighborhood, playing fetch, playing with the water hose, etc! I can provide medication if needed as well and make sure to keep an eye out for anything out of the ordinary in their behavior.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I’m 29 years old, born and raised in Louisiana, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, not just a job or side hustle. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets because they’re family. I know the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels — from playful puppies and kittens to older pets that need extra patience and gentle care. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them attention, affection, playtime, and a calm environment so they feel secure and happy. I want pet owners to have peace of mind knowing their babies are in caring, reliable hands. I’m currently working part time so I would have plenty of time for your loved ones. I’m available Monday-Sunday Mornings at 8am to 12pm . Evenings 6:30 to 8pm. I’m able to provide pets with a comfortable indoor space in my spare bedroom, giving them a calm and safe environment while in my care. I also have a spacious backyard where pets can enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely on adjustable leashes, allowing them room to move around comfortably and stretch their legs based on their needs and activity level.

About: I am a full time veterinary technician and I love it! I couldn't have asked for a more rewarding job. While you are away you can rest assured that I will responsibly care for your pet and follow your care instructions. I am knowledgeable about what signs or symptoms to watch for and will be monitoring him or her for any issues. I've worked with animals my entire life. From rescuing stray cats as a child to competing in equestrian shows as a teen. I've always felt a special connection with animals and felt compelled to help them however I could. I want you and your pet to have a stress free experience while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies. It plays a huge part of my life. Not only do i own 6 animals I also volunteer to control feral cat colonies. Client education is also very important to me My crew have the run of the house with the oldest cat Mini scolding everyone. I'll often have neonate babies im nursing so that gives my babies and yours some experience

“Melissa is awesome! Thanks for being so sweet to my pup!”

About: I've taken care of many different types of dogs throughout the years. All different sizes and personalities. I am especially patient and positive, and I'm looking forward to meeting new canine buddies. My schedule is almost always in a flexible state. The only exception is seeing my nephews and niece safely off to or home from school. Consider me available anytime except 6am to 9am then again at 3pm to 4:30pm on weekdays. I have a good portion of back yard fenced in with a gazebo for my dogs when they need to go outside, and they are never far from treats and water.

About: I have a long history of pet sitting for family and friends. I love giving pets and attention to my furry friends. I have two cats, but have a very soft spot for pups, too. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for walks during the day/ evening and for house sitting or check ins. I will treat your baby like they’re my own! I know they get sad when you’re away, so I am available for extra love and keeping things as normal as possible.

About: I’ve fostered over 75 dogs! I’ve taken care of dogs whose ages range from actual newborn puppies to my own senior dog who is 10. I have experience with every kind of dog from a chihuahua to a great dane and everything in between. I am currently a part-time student at LSU, but only have classes for a couple hours on Tuesday & Thursday 10am-2pm so anytime outside of that i’d love to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced yard and three dogs of my own to play with yours! I also have crates of every size if you like them to hang out in a crate by themselves sometimes! If I’m at your home, i’ll be sure to give your pet the attention, love and care they deserve. I’ll also be sure not to leave a mess behind and I always try to leave homes cleaner than I found them. I genuinely love animals and I want them to live their best lives!

“Thank you so much for walking Lily!!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, managing daily routines, specific dietary needs, and overall wellness. As a dedicated dog parent myself, I treat every pet with patience, affection, and top priority toward their safety and happiness! I love spending quality time with dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as a dedicated dog owner. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give full attention, timely walks, feeding, and plenty of playtime to your furry companions throughout the week. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I strictly follow all instructions regarding feeding, crate routines, and leash safety during walks. I ensure doors and gates are secure at all times, creating a calm, loving, and reliable environment for your pet.

About: I have years of hands on experience caring for dogs for friends, neighbors, and family, often stepping in for walks, feeding, and daily care when they're out of town. I'm dependable, detail oriented, and I make sure each dog's routine is followed so they stay comfortable and stress free while their owners are away. At home I have a mini schnauzer and a sheepadoodle, so I'm very familiar with both smaller, high energy personalities and larger, playful dogs. Managing both has taught me patience, consistency, and how to read different temperaments quickly. I'm comfortable adjusting to each dog's needs and making sure they get the right mix of exercise, attention, and care. I work in dental sales, which gives me a flexible schedule that I can easily work around pet care needs. I’m able to stop by for walks, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day and adjust my schedule as needed. This flexibility also allows me to take on regular or last-minute bookings and be reliable for pets and their owners. I follow each pet’s routine and instructions closely to keep things consistent and stress free. I handle feeding, walks, and basic care in the client’s home, and make sure pets get the attention and exercise they need based on their normal habits, personality, and daily routine.

“Tenay is a skilled and enthusiastic dog walker who keeps in touch when caring for pets. She stayed with my pup for three days while I was out of town, and did a great job, even managing to get my "loves to nap" dog out for some long walks (which he needs). She sent photos and videos and I felt confident that he was Ok at all times.”

About: I love being engaged and active with each and every fur baby I’m blessed to watch. I love seeing their individual personalities blossom and grow! I can travel if needed. I create my schedule around my clients wants and needs. I try my best to be as flexible as possible because life happens to all of us. I am very willing to travel beyond the 60 mile radius allowed. I make sure to stay on any established schedule they may have and make sure that each and every one has the love and affection they so deserve.

About: I am a calm caregiver who is great with anxious dogs and rescue pups! I have 6 years of experience with senior dogs (large and small), medication administration, and special diets. I am currently self employed, making my our schedule. I am able to build my schedule around your pets’ needs, whether that is during the week day or weekend. When petting sitting at clients homes, I make sure to leave the house just as clean as when the client left. I believe it is important to treat others homes and animals with the respect and care of my personal home and pets.
