“Katie was awesome as always! We booked her for a drop-in this time and she made sure Toast got all of her energy out by playing in the backyard, fed her, and gave her medication as instructed. Toast loves it when she comes to visit!”

“If I could give more stars I would! This is our first time to leave our dogs with someone, and Kacey C. Made it the best experience we could have asked for! She made us feel very comfortable leaving them. She kept us updated on everything with plenty of photos, and one of our dogs had a seizure during her care and she kept us updated on all that was going on the whole time. We highly recommend her, and will definitely be using her again while in the area.”


“Yulitza was great with our 2 big dogs! This was my first time using Rover and I felt confident in leaving Yulitza to care for my dogs. She was very communicative and sent pictures every visit. Will definitely book again!”

“Johanna was great! Reliable, kind and calming. She sent several pics a day and it appears our pup was well cared for while we were gone, which was such a weight off our shoulders! Would love to have her as a sitter again in the future.”

“Jordan did a great job taking care of my 4 kitties and feeding them twice a day + litter scooping. She followed all my instructions perfectly and sent informative notes and photos after every visit. She's a very busy lady, so a somewhat flexible time-schedule from the pet owner would probably be the best fit, i.e. "morning" instead of 8am on the dot. I really appreciated her help!”

“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She asked a bunch of questions early on to understand my dog's needs and kept me informed of concerns that came up during the drop-in visits. I highly recommend her as a sitter, especially if you have a large breed dog. I will definitely schedule her for future drop-ins.”

“Great experience! Lily kept me updated with photos, and Bella looked happy and well cared for. I appreciated the communication and attention she gave my dog. Would absolutely use her again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: I’ve had the privilege of making animal care my life for the past 30+ years. I’ve worked at 2 zoos, a wildlife preserve and now I pet sit full time. I love meeting new pets and their parents. My main priority is ensuring your animal is comfortable and safe while you’re away. I strive to give peace of mind to any worried pet parents. 😊 My favorite activities with your Furkid include enrichment with toys, fetching, dispensing treats and rubbing backs and bellies. I can medicate, give insulin and prepare special diets. I’m also trained in animal first aid and I excel at following directions. Animal care is all I do. I can do daily walks/visits up to 3 times a day. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights. I have a number of clients in the Baton Rouge area with different pet care needs and I make my own schedule. I stick to their usual daily routine or follow whatever instructions are left. I like to keep a consistent visit/feeding/potty time. I have a lot of patience and will encourage your pet to socialize with me. We can do whatever they like, play with toys, take walks, eat treats, rub backs or just sit together. I also water plants, check mail/paper and keep a general an eye on things.

About: I’ve cared for cats since I was 13 and have pet sit for friends and family over the years! I love all animals and would love to learn about more! I’m currently a college student and would love to care for animals between classes and schoolwork! Due to the summer my schedule is extremely flexible! Reach out to me and I’ll do whatever I can to make something work. I care for pets by feeding and entertaining them for a bit. I’m open to cleaning after them where needed and I know every pet has different needs!

About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. I worked at a dog day care and vet hospital for 2 years and have owned horses since I was 7. I have years of experience with animal care. I love spending time with people’s cats and dogs! I have experience with administering medication and experience with dogs of all ages. I am available most afternoons and some mornings. I work part time during the week so I can be flexible on visit times especially on the weekends. Their needs are my priority and I will make sure they are well cared for at all times. All pets will be be made comfortable either in my home or theirs!
About: I am a 2nd year student at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge. I grew up with a love for animals and decided to turn my passion into my career. I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. I have small animal clinic experience so I am very comfortable with giving medications, identifying signs of anxiety or pain, and providing loving care to any animal. I have 3 dogs right now that I absolutely adore and spend most of my time with. Being a veterinary student means that I get the opportunity to deal with all sorts of animals weekly. Animals bring me joy and the more I can be around them, the better! I feed my dogs twice a day and take them on daily walks. I play with them as much as I can to get their energy out and cuddle with them once they are tired out. When I dog-sit for people, I usually go to their house 3 times a day, play with them, and ensure they get enough attention and playtime. I am also comfortable with giving baths and trimming nails.
“Ava is an amazing dog-sitter and walker… she cared for my dogs like they were her own. She is punctual and made sure my dogs were given care, attention, exercise and entertainment while I was away.”

“Mandy was so sweet and gentle with Fitz. She came despite the hurricane to care for him!! She went above and beyond. She is punctual and spent a lot of time taking absolutely the best care of him with lots of picture updates. She was also available last minute and Fitz absolutely adored her!! I can’t think of even one minor thing for improvement. She was absolutely perfect in communication, timing and care for my fur baby! Will definitely rebook her again without any hesitation!”

“This is our second time booking Mikayla to watch our two cats and she did wonderful! Thank you for taking care of them and being very responsive, we appreciate you!”

About: I’m a recent LSU graduate with lots of free time to love on your animals!! I have extensive experience with neonate (baby) cats and dogs. I work full time in Baton Rouge. Most days I work from home so I have plenty of time to take for your pet. Your pet would be my first priority. I’m always willing to go the extra mile for you and your pet! I will send pictures and updates as often as you request. My extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs prepares me well for whatever needs your animal may have.

Zoe was such a wonderful sitter for my fur babies and the photos were absolutely adorable and funny. I know they enjoyed spending time with her. I will definitely be booking her again. She made sure everything was clean and fresh before she left at let me know if there was any issues that needed to be taken care of.

Amazing sitter. Communicative, attentive, punctual and a real live Snow White. I had one of my cats pass away the day before she was to start her visits and it was breaking my heart to have to go in and remove him from the booking, she took charge and just did it for me. She just intuitively knew and I’m so thankful for that. I will absolutely use her anytime I have to go out of town again. I didn’t worry for a moment while I was gone. I just can’t say enough great things about her.

Katriana was attentive, caring and punctual. She took amazing care of my fur babies and went above and beyond giving them extra love and attention. I loved the pictures giving extra peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely use her again! Great job and thank you ❤️

Thank you for taking such good care of my baby. She did really well for you too. Thanks for the communication and pictures which is another good thing about rover we get to see her and seeing that she was content made us feel good and able to relax better knowing she is in good hands. Thank you for putting the packages and mail inside. You will definitely be my first choice again..which will probably be in November. Thanks again for everything you did.
