Meri was very responsible and caring. She took great care of Bubba and Panda. The dogs were happy and well fed. My home was immaculate when I returned. I would be happy to use her again.

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.

David is a very reliable and caring sitter! He jumped in last minute to take care of Charlie over Christmas when we had another sitter cancel. He is very reliable and communicative and we could not appreciate him more! He does so well with our dog and we highly recommend you work with David! He administers Charlie’s pill daily, takes him on long walks, and spends tons of time with him so he is not lonely. We cannot recommend David enough!

About: I've always taken in stray dogs or cats growing up , I'm 34, and being with animals is therapeutic for me. I've trained my full grown golden doodle into adult hood although I got busy with dental school and decided it best for her well being to give her to a loving family who would be able to give her more attention because when going through dental hygiene school , I knew before starting I would not be able to give her the full attention that she deserved , me and my son had her for 5 great years and still visit with her and her new family . I am now no longer in dental school although I do work in dentistry and am looking for a part time side hustle , thank you for giving me this opportunity , working with animals is actually I job I enjoy. I do live in Kentwood La - very rural country , I am willing to travel as there is not a lot of business out here thank you for your understanding. I currently work as an expanded dental assistant working Monday - Thursday , the latest I get off is 4:30 and most days earlier than that . I work one Friday out of the month . I can come to you and watch your animals after 4:30 during the week If not earlier than that time , and I'm usually free Friday thru Sundays , I'll work with you and your schedule. I provide attentive and reliable care for pets as if they are my own children. Will keep update with pics/videos. Respect and communication is key.

Allison took excellent care of our pets. She kept in constant touch with us while we were away. I was able to have fun on vacation and didn’t worry about my senior dog who can’t see or hear well. I will definitely use her again!

We used Chuck to house sit and watch after our golden retriever for a week. He helped us out tremendously by making himself available on a last minute booking request. He was quick to respond and accommodated my schedule to do a meet and greet with our dog prior to his stay. Chuck went above and beyond with keeping us updated by text multiple times a day on how our dog was doing (pictures and all). I would definitely recommend him to anybody!

About: What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets of all ages—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m also reliable, clean, and always make communication a priority. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits into my daily routine, because of that fact that i have a cat of my own right now. I have had numerous amounts of cats and dogs all my life, so i’ve never been without having to care for an animal everyday of my life. I treat every pet like family, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I stick closely to their routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they get the attention and care they deserve. My space is pet-safe and cozy, and when I’m in your home, I always respect it like it’s my own. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Pet sitting is more than just showing up. It's about making sure your animal feels safe, loved, and at ease even when you're not there. Growing up, animals were always a huge part of my life, from cats and dogs to guinea pigs and turtles. That early experience gave me a huge love for pets of all kinds. Your fur baby will be in caring, attentive hands. You can travel and go about your day knowing your pet is genuinely looked after, not just watched. I recently moved back home to Louisiana from living in Denver, Colorado for the past 5 years. With my schedule being so open and flexible, pet care fits naturally into my day. I am able to give your pet consistent attention, timely walks, and plenty of quality time without it ever feeling rushed. Safety and trust are two things that I will never compromise on. When I'm in a client's home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would give my own. I want both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing their home and their animal are in good hands. I take thorough notes on routines, preferences, and any special needs so nothing gets overlooked. I always make sure the environment stays safe, comfortable, and familiar for your pet.

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.

Anika is the BEST! She made all my babies feel comfortable and took excellent care of them. She sent me a lot of pictures too! That really put my mind at ease - seeing how happy they were and knowing that Anika was there for them when I couldn't be. I 100% recommend Anika to anyone who is afraid to go out of town and leave their babies.... she is the best and your babies will love her!
