And officially employed as a sitter for 3 years! I adore animals and I'll treat yours like my own! I live in a decent sized shop gun with a large fenced in back yard close to a levee and parks for walks I'm an independent esthetician who's studio is only 3 blocks away from home and I work for myself! The his makes accommodations for animals easy peasy! I also have A reliable car so popping in to feed cats/dogs and/or walking dogs multiple times a day is very fesiable I have a small fenced in back yard and live in a safe dog friendly neighborhood I have 2 cats, ones elderly and naps alot the other is young and curious but both tend to stay in their own space away from dogs when we board them! I am an independent esthetician so I set my own schedule making petsitting very easy to fit in as well as working within a 3 block radius of my home! Can put breaks in my day whenever needed! I care for pets in my home as they are my own and work close enough to pop in many times a day making it optimal for any type of pet needs

“What a nice human. We have a rescue and we’re visiting NOLA staying in a condo and we’re unsure how she would react. Booked with Michael and the visit didn’t disappoint. She was whiney at first then settled in this shoes me he is a dog lover. Will rebook next trip.”

“Susan is extremely trustworthy and reliable. One of the few people I felt comfortable leaving my new puppy with. She is always responsive to messages and has been so flexible and accommodating with my crazy schedule. Josie is always happy after spending day care with Susan. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Tayler was amazing. My dog Lacey always get separation anxiety and tends to cry when I leave and is a little lack lister but Tayler was one of the few that was able to get her to eat her dinner. Lacey usually will not eat unless I or my husband feeds her, but Lacey was happy to stay with Tayler. Thanks for taking such great care of our “baby”.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage, from puppies to seniors, with a variety of breeds and temperaments. Right now, I have a small breed senior who is still fairly active. I am typically at home, have a flexible schedule, and am available for drop-offs on short notice. Just let me know how I can assist! Your dog will have free range of the living areas, with regular supervised visits to the enclosed backyard, and will be walked at least twice daily or as often as requested.

About: My dream is to open a rescue specifically for elderly animals, but until then, let me care for your pets! I am a foster and volunteer for the LASPCA - I foster dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens all year round. I have two dogs and one cat of my own and work remotely; I spend as much time as I can caring for animals. It makes me happy and gives me a sense of purpose. I would love to care for (and play with!) your pets while you are away. I work from home! My family is me, one senior rescue cat, and two small rescue dogs. I am a foster and volunteer for the LASPCA and foster everything from larger dogs like pit bulls to teeny kittens that need bottle feeding. I've raised and fostered kittens and dogs, dog and cat sat for friends, and administer daily medication including eye drops and insulin. I'm very comfortable administering medications if your pet requires that (plus treats and snuggles after). I take daily walks, give frequent breaks in my fenced backyard, and snuggle on the couch on weekends and evenings. Please note: my availability for boarding drop off and pickup is between 8am and 8pm. Dogs must be kennel trained, and I offer kennel training for a separate fee. I have kennels here if you prefer not to bring your own, but feel free to bring dog bedding! I love to go on long walks with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. If you need a dog walker who takes great dog photos, I'm your sitter! I'm also a cat lady who loves EVERY cat of every disposition, and am pretty good at getting even the shyest cats to make a new friend in me. Ask me about basic training services during boarding, too! I am an experienced foster with lots of success training shelter and rescue dogs on basic commands, kennel training, and more. I require boarding dogs sleep in a kennel at night in my home, for everyone's safety. I have several kennels of all sizes that your dog can sleep in; please bring a familiar dog bed so your dog can feel right at home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years, mine, family and neighbors. I love dogs, I take care of them and love to play with them Any time any day.

I have a big yard with fence, I dont have pets in my home, I have toys to entretain them. I hace enough space indoor to keep the dogs warm and happy and comfy.

We are from out of town, and Cindy cared for our sensitive dog while we saw the sites of New Orleans! Cindy and her beautiful home with a spacious, fenced-in yard are a total dream! We feel like we met a new friend. Thank you, Cindy!??❤️ We will definitely stay connected! We give her all the accolades possible and will recommend her to all of our friends and family!”

About: I pet sit because I want to, not because I need to💜. I live on the trail and have a small yard! It’s a passion of mine to be around your pets. As the the oldest of 5 much younger siblings and a former professional nanny, I am a natural caregiver! Now, I am an independent hairstylist that works for myself, and as an animal lover, I have naturally become many of my clients trusted go-to pet sitter, especially for in house vacation pet sitting. I am highly trained as a former animal foster (including the bottle babies that require so much attention and responsibility) and as a professional care giver. I also grew up with non-traditional critters including, but not limited to, hedgehogs, salamanders, iguanas, guinea pigs, gerbils, etc. so I’m cool with whatever you throw at me! LGBTQ+ friendly!! I work for myself part time as a hairstylist. I make my own hours so it is very easy to not schedule on the days I am needed or to schedule large breaks in between. As a former nanny and elder millennial (lol) I am very responsible first! I always double check leashes, harnesses, doors, etc so you can leave your home feeling great with your guys in my hands. At my clients home, I very much like to follow their rules and instructions to the detail. I keep a photo and/or list of all instructions on my phone and a physical copy in my car. At my own home, I like to listen to what my clients feel comfortable with and follow that as discussed with them. I do like their pets to feel like I’m their loving grandma- they always get extra love and long walks when I come to see them!

About: I am a dog and cat lover, who believes every furry friend is actually a family member. I’m very prompt, honest, and detail oriented. I’ve had dogs my entire life and everything about them warms my heart! I am excited to become your favorite dog sitter/walker. This has been my favorite hobby since college and my own pup loves that I share the love with other waggin’ tails on my off days from the theatre. :) A fun fact about me is that I actually have been a vegetarian for 15 years! It all started when I was a child who wanted to become a veterinarian for all animals and “couldn’t eat my patients!” While I’m not a vet, my heart is still open to every dog, cat, cow, or lamb. I am able to take constructive criticism and willing to adapt to however your family works. Does your pet love a particular game? a specific rub? Does he/she make a mess sometimes? That’s okay! I’m excited to get to know you and them! Thank you for your time and hope to see y’all soon. I work a 5 day theatre schedule so I have open availability Mondays/Tuesdays and other early mornings (8am to noon) throughout the week (Wednesdays through Sunday). When I’m in Texas I’m way more flexible! I like to know what parts of the home are best for your pet to feel comfortable and where I can sit to be comfortable as well.
