About: I have had horses and dogs for most of my life. I love being around animals and developing a bond with them. I am an Air Force Veteran and small business owner. I am very reliable and trustworthy to take care of the special dog in your life. I have availability in the evenings after my classes at UC Davis Monday, Wednesday and Friday after 3pm and Tuesdays from 7-9am. I can also help on some weekends by appointment! I am a gym owner and I would primarily have your pet there unless I were to watch your pet in your home. I have a fully vaccinated, friendly 2 year old Doberman mix that will keep your pet playful and busy at my gym or I can leave her home and come for a visit to your residence.

About: I have experience caring for young dogs, including feeding, basic training, and keeping them active and safe. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every dog with love and attention. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with cat or dog. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 3 At the client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine, give fresh food and water, clean up, play, and make sure the pet feels safe and relaxed.
About: Experienced and dedicated animal care professional with a lifelong background in multi-species husbandry, specialized breeding, and medical care management. Proven expertise across a broad spectrum of animals—from domestic dogs and cats to reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, and exotic species. Highly skilled in medical administration (including 12-hour oral dosing and transdermal applications), preparing custom fresh-food diets, and managing neonate litters. Known for an intuitive, calm demeanor that quickly builds trust with anxious or sensitive animals while upholding the highest standards of animal welfare and responsible care.m My work schedule allows me to go to homes in local areas of Kenner, Metairie, some of New Orleans, the West Bank and Avondale, Louisiana. I work full time as a sales associate handling high-end, luxury goods with professional and personal references. I have open availability to visit before and after work daily in the morning (depending on where the pet is located) and evening every day. My work schedule rotates every week so the exact times of my availability will vary. I am guaranteed off work three (3) days a week. On my off days I can sleep at your pet's home, with the understanding that I do not have work the next day. I have an animal friendly home. Your cat or cats would have its own room. Cat tree, tunnel and toys. Treats if allowed!! I have 5 cats and 1 dog of my own. They are all friendly however, I would not introduce your babies to them. We want a low stress and safe feeling environment. I understand cats behavior and would not want any unnecessary stress to come to them or my babies.

About: Family and friends have trusted me to take care of their fur babies and homes while they're away, by keeping up with their pets' routines and caring for them like they're my own. I bring a calming energy that animals easily take to. I currently care for both dogs and cats. I'm currently in between jobs and doing sitting for friends and family. I have a lot of free time around appointments to provide care, check-ins, and sittings for your pets! While caring for pets at a clients home, I ensure that the pets stay on their routine and get lots of love. I provide reliable care for not only pets but also the homes.
“Morgan is my favorite sitter I recommend her to anyone who wants to spoil their pet! I gave her a reasonable list of to-dos to help care for my cat for when i’m away and i’m very type A so I thought i’d feel the need to constantly msg and check up. I was gone for 2.5 weeks and across the world on a 12-14 hour time difference, so I often woke up to her updates without having to msg her while she was there bc I was sleeping. And when I tell you her updates are very thorough, addressing every single thing on the to do list and the ease or challenges she had with each one, with many many many pictures each visit!!! every question I could’ve had was answered, I felt soooo at ease it made my trip so much better knowing I can just move on with my schedule knowing my fur baby is well taken care of. I couldn’t be happier with the care Morgan provided my sweet girl! highly recommend :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for most of my life. I love high energy animals and taking care of them. I grew up with a dog and cat I still have and care for and more recently I have been a volunteer at the Humane Society, I even ended up starting my own club of volunteers in high school. This role has equipped me with all sorts of animal care skills such as cleaning after them, bathing them, feeding them and administering medication, and making sure to provide lots of love and attention. I’ve always said that I’m not a dog or cat person when asked, but rather an animal person. I love animals and caring after them. I am a college student at Tulane University and I am currently home for the summer! I am available until June 22nd and have open availability all day every day until then. I have a fenced yard and two pets of my own that are both friendly so I am no stranger to spending time outdoors with animals or having playdates. I am more than happy to take pets to any appointments they may have and am able to administer medication if needed.
About: Hi my name is Josh! I recently moved back to New Orleans from Scottsdale Arizona. Its definitely a different kind of heat here, but I prefer it! Something you may find that separates me from others is the energy I bring to the table. It will have your dogs wanting more time with me! I have been a dog owner for many years as well as many breeds, and have gotten to enjoy the lasting relationships you build with them. I love being outdoors whether its playing soccer or working in my garden, and both are even better with more animals around! I look forward to meeting you and your beloved animals and thank you in advance for choosing to have me as a part of their life! Currently have a lot of availability and flexibility to make your pets my priority! I love getting outdoors and taking dogs on walks and playing with cats providing them the enrichment they need! I’ve got two cats and a wonderful dog that could possibly keep your animals company but also have the kennels and rooms available to separate them! The animals are my top priority!
“Super communicative and flexible! Aileen took care of our cat for 4 days while we were gone and sent us really cute pictures and updated us on everything. She was able to administer oral medications too. Would rebook her again”

About: I adopted my traveling friend's cat, Zara, for a year and a half before my friend moved back home during lockdown. Zara and I moved a few times in New Orleans, but she adjusted to our home perfectly once we were settled. She snuggled me everyday and was patient with me while I worked in the service industry. I have also cared for ducks, chickens, two older pigs, and a parrot while one of my friends left the city (New Orleans) for her birthday vacation. During this same week, I cared for my disabled friend's blind cat, shrimp tank, goldfish, and two neighborhood cats she tends to. Even though these friends lived on opposite parts of the city, I split my time snuggling with the furry pets and attended to all pets who had medication or special needs. My love for animals has expanded to animals I never thought I'd get to love on! I hope you can welcome me as your pet caretaker while you are away from home. I'm currently working as remote tutor with students from around the world! I'd love to fill my time loving on pets who will enjoy a safe and calm environment while I teach the youth English. I would love to invest full-time into sitting so, I can focus on my private clients as I progress in my new career. I have extensive experience with disabled and abused pets. My care is specialized for all pets, but the ones who need a little extra care have somehow come into my life and never left my heart. What I offer can be healing for your loved furry family and also for me. I enjoy connecting with all animals, but have a deep love for the furry ones if you need a trusted sitter to give them the same love you would!

About: I’ve been taking care of my animals and others’ animals from a young age. I have a range of experience- with puppies and kittens, administering medication, unique personalities, special needs, and more. Whether its a high energy dog or a nervous and shy cat or anything in between, I have seen it all! I am flexible and willing to help in any way I can! Currently not boarding at the moment since I am moving into a new space soon. I can go home for lunch during the week and am free all evenings and weekends. Since I am in the process of moving to a new space, I am not boarding at the moment. I am usually available for boarding on weeknights after 4p and full days on the weekends. Your pet is my priority whether I am at your place or mine. When staying at your place, I will always try to leave it neater than when I came across it. Whether its replacing batteries in your ring camera or letting the service man come in, I am available to help you in anyway you need when something unexpected occurs while you're out. Any animals staying at my home are made to feel comfortable and safe; my home becomes their home!

About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.
About: Medical student who personally has two guinea pigs, two cats, grew up with dogs, and has previously owned many fish. I treat patients in the hospital and you can trust me to be professional and on top of your pet's care. Not many people have experience caring for rodents and fish. I also have personal experience owning two cats and growing up with 100+ pound dogs. I am currently doing a sports medicine research fellowship and have lots of time in the afternoons. I am usually free Fridays and the weekends all day. I will follow my client's care instructions to a tee. I am also not afraid to ask clarifying questions if I am confused. I will make sure your pets receive the bes quality of care. I am always open to call or text. Availability is of the utmost importance.

Kristen was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for Albert! I was having a hard time getting him to eat enough and she came up with ideas to encourage him to eat while I was away. I had peace of mind knowing he was eating enough and well cared for while I was gone

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Harahan is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 165 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Harahan. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
