About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to creating a safe, positive experience while you’re away. Whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping your dog company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for throughout my time with them. As a 20 year old college student home for the summer. I work at South of Beale downtown and enjoy attending to animals. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive, and loving care and i would love to be your next sitter ! As a pet owner, I can provide safe, attentive care by following routines, watching your pets, maintaining a clean environment, and ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

About: Hi! I'm a pre-vet student with hands on animal care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can fully trust, so I focus on providing attentive, dependable care while making sure your pet feels safe and loved! Whether its walks, playtimes, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as my own. My goal is to give owners peace of mind while creating a fun, calm, and caring experience for their pets. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine and is something I prioritize and plan around. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and some weekends depending on the day. I’m able to accommodate regular visits, drop-ins, walks, and feeding schedules, and I make sure to build my commitments around each pet’s needs. I’m reliable with timing and communication, so pet parents can feel confident their pets are being checked on and cared for as planned. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific behavioral needs or preferences each pet has. I make sure doors are secured, litter boxes are clean, water is fresh, and the space is kept tidy and comfortable. I also focus on building trust with each pet by moving at their pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and giving them gentle attention and reassurance. I treat every home with respect and care, keeping everything clean and leaving things exactly as I found them. My goal is always to ensure both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and confident while I’m there.
“5/5 stars hands down! Julia did such a great job with house sitting and was so good with Rocky while I was away! She sent lots of pictures and updates which made me feel so comfortable! It seems like Rocky took right to her for the first time ever meeting her! You could tell she has such a good spirit! She was so flexible! Rocky had an accident on the bed and Julia was so sweet to wash my linens for me. Would definitely recommend me her and her husband! Really wish I could give 10 stars!”

“Abby is an absolute delight! She was wonderful with my dogs and so respectful of the space. She was communicative, proactive, and an absolute joy to have with my dogs in my absence. Abby and Theon are welcome to my house anytime, and I encourage you to consider them for yours!”

“We love having Magnolia watch our pets in our house when we’re out of town. One of our cats has a health issue and we feel so comfortable with Magnolia watching her. When we got home the kitties were happy, bowls were full, and house was clean. Thank you!!”

“Melissa held down the fort with our crew for a week (two big rescue dogs and two rescue kittens). She was quick to respond to any messages or questions and I felt extremely comfortable having her in our home. The animals were at ease with her quickly which was very important to us. We’d happily recommend her to others and hope we’ll have an opportunity to utilize her services again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities throughout my life. Growing up, I always had a dog in the house, which helped me develop a strong love and understanding of animals from an early age. Friends, family members, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay overnight with their pets while they’re away. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve been asked back multiple times by the families I’ve helped, which reflects the trust and reliability I bring to every pet I care for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I currently work part-time cleaning homes and typically finish my workday and return home around 2:00 PM. This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight care. I am hoping to make pet sitting a larger priority in my schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for every pet I work with. I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every fur baby with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I have a friendly pet who can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences, and I am happy to accommodate specific requests to help them feel comfortable and safe. From feeding schedules and medication administration to extra playtime, walks, or special sleeping arrangements, I strive to provide personalized care that keeps both pets and owners happy.
About: I have loved animals since I was a young child. I love caring for dogs and also the flexibility to travel, so I do not have a pup of my own. I started dog sitting in high school and college while on breaks from school and it brings me so much joy to care for everyone's pups. I work full-time in a physical therapy clinic, so I am typically able to run home during my lunch break if dogs are in need of a restroom break. I am always excited to spend time with animals in any way possible! Sometimes this looks like stopping at someone's house on the way home from work if they need walked, staying in their home, or their dog(s) staying with me. I do not have any pets of my own, so if your dog does not get along well with other dogs they will be comfortable in my home. I have a roommate who also loves dogs but does not have any pets. If your dog(s) love others, we can enjoy walks and dog parks and play dates with others! I am very careful when entering and residing in others homes, and try to make sure the environment is the same or cleaner than I left it.
About: Animals are a major part of my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child, and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family's pets, friend's pets, and volunteering over the years. I am currently in grad school and focusing on that, so I am home full time during the week. This leaves me plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I have a fenced-in yard with two fur babies of my own to play with yours, if they’re friendly! If not, my babies are crate trained.
“Akilah went above and beyond. She helped me out when another sitter cancelled last second. My dog and cat loved her as soon as they met her. She sent me photos and videos while I was away. She even took out the trash and washed the sheets in the room she was staying in!! Will definitely use her again.”


About: Over 10 years of pet care experience with dogs, cats, and more. I’ve cared for everything from dachshunds and German shepherds to many different Cats! Friends, family, and former coworkers have trusted me to walk, feed, cuddle, and overnight-sit their pets with the same love and attention I’d give my own. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I’m fully available for overnight stays, extended house sitting, and daily care. I follow instructions carefully and treat every pet like family — because that’s exactly what they are. I currently live with two dogs — a poodle and a Doberman mix — so your pet will be in a comfortable, animal-friendly environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, dietary needs, and personality. Whether it’s medication schedules, feeding times, or extra cuddles, I make sure every animal feels safe and loved.
About: I’ve spent the last decade surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes, which has taught me that every pet has its own unique personality. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who needs to play or a senior dog who just wants a quiet companion, I pride myself on being patient and observant. My experience comes from 10 years of caring for my own four dogs and several years of trusted house-sitting for family friends. I’m comfortable with everything from medication schedules to long walks and messy feedings. As a future educator, I bring a level of responsibility and calm energy to every home, ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and—most importantly—like they’re having fun while you’re away! I am currently looking for a summer job, Pet care will be my main source of income until I find one or until college rolls around! I am very good at reading a pets behavior, I can tell when they're being playful and when they're not. I have never been bitten by a pet in any way other than playful and have a very keen eye for escape artists. I will chase your Pet down if they do manage to slip out. I love getting to play with animals and love on them, it makes my whole day!

FAQs for House Sitting - Frenchmans Bayou
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 304 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Frenchmans Bayou. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Frenchmans Bayou walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Frenchmans Bayou maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Frenchmans Bayou 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
