Danny took such good care of my dog. It was our first time booking with Danny which is scary as a dog mom. I was quickly realized that Danny’s calm presence was perfect for both my pup and my nerves. He walked her twice daily, fed her, and most importantly loved on her. We love Danny

Kaylee was such a delight! Shady looked so happy in all the photos she sent me, and she made sure he took all of his allergy meds the whole stay. She kept me informed and updated about him all weekend and I had peace of mind my whole vacation knowing my baby was well taken care of. I will definitely be calling her next time I go out of town!

Sierra did a great job. She did leave the cat poop in a grocery bag for a few days so when we came in the house didnt smell great. Otherwise she kept me in the loop every day, took pictures & sent & kept the house clean. I will most definitely use her again.

About: I have over a year of experience in animal daycare and/or kennel settings, and can quickly assess a pet's body language and accomodate for discomfort or unique needs. I have a part time job Monday through Wednesday, but I can make myself available with enough planning ahead, and usually have afternoons and evenings free. I need at least two day's notice for weekends. I follow client's intructions to the letter when caring for pets at their home. When needed (e.g. for brachycephalic dogs) I will ask for a safe harness or collar option to avoid restricted breathing.

Mikayla stayed with our 2 dogs and 2 cats for a long weekend. She came over twice before the wkend to learn about the house and pets. Communication was easy and fast before and during the stay. The most challenging job at our house is bringing the cats in at night which she conquered. She asked good questions and did a good job. We will definitely hire Mikayla again!

We could not have been happier with our experience with Samantha! Since we were going away for a long trip out of the country we were a little nervous, of course, but those nerves disappeared right away because of the communication and updates we received. I’m pretty sure our pets were spoiled rotten! Our dog even missed Samantha, and keeps going to “her room” to nap. Thank you so much.

About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was 5 years old. I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years as a boarder before I permanently moved to Baton Rouge. I go to LSU and major in animal science. I have medicated and taken care of anxious/aggressive dogs. I am patient, gentle, and I take account that each pet is a family member to each owner. I am currently enrolled at LSU majoring in Animal science. I have wanted to foster or get a pet of my own since moving here but I have not been able to, so I decided to make my side hustle helping others with the things I love to do. I am available on weekdays and most weekends. Just message me ahead of time for weekends! I am easygoing and easy to communicate with. I have a fenced little yard and I enjoy walking around my gated neighborhood, so I will do so with your pet. I follow instructions well, I am aware each pet is different and have their own personality. I’m slow and a quick learner, since I have handled hundreds different dogs for a handful of years. If I am ever confused on an instruction my first instinct is to contact you to make sure and not just “assume”.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to hamsters, guinea pigs, and even reptiles like turtles and lizards, I offer compassionate and reliable pet-sitting services. As a pet parent to my own two cats and two dogs, alongside my caring boyfriend, I understand the importance of providing a loving and safe environment for your beloved companions. Having provided pet-sitting for my family for many years, I am eager to extend my care to your furry, scaly, or feathered friends! As a part-time restaurant manager and nursing student, I offer flexible pet care services to fit your needs. Working for my mother provides me with unique scheduling flexibility, allowing me to accommodate your pet's care with sufficient notice. I reside in a spacious two-bedroom apartment in Baton Rouge with my boyfriend, providing ample space for pet care. While I'm unable to host other pets in my home due to my dog's reactivity, I do have experience with aggressive dogs. My young German Shepherd is incredibly friendly and would enjoy playdates with similar-sized pups! My pets follow a strict daily schedule, maintained with my boyfriend's help. As an owner of larger breeds (Pitbull and German Shepherd), I'm comfortable handling bigger dogs, even in apartment settings, thanks to daily walks down three flights of stairs. I'm also experienced in administering medications and catering to pets with special needs, ensuring your pet receives the personalized care they require.

Our boys come with some quirks, and within moments, we were getting photo updates of them cuddling on to her lap, or asleep on a comfy pillow, making the whole experience feel comfortable and safe. She’s got a way with animals, and we highly recommended her.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and easy to communicate with, keeping me updated throughout her stay. It was such a comfort, knowing she’s a vet student, especially because Athena has epilepsy. I felt completely at ease, leaving Athena in her care. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again.
