2. Sawsan A.

“Sawson took care of Beau for us for 2 days while we explored New Orleans. Beau came home both nights very happy and we, in the meanwhile, received the cutest pictures of Beau from Sawson. Sawson is impressive. She really knows and loves dogs. Her whole home is set up so her charges can enjoy the outdoors and one another with her most professional supervision. We feel like we made new friends during our short stay in this beautiful area. Five stars for Sawson!”

“Vasylyna and Truman connected instantly. Even if it was our first time leaving Tru with her, I knew our baby would be in good hands. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I could tell that Truman was well taken care off. She provided regular updates with pictures, which really put my mind at ease. I highly recommend her services and would surely leave Truman with her next time we visit Nola.”


10. Bonnie W.
“Bonnie is a true dog-lover. Growing up, he was the primary care-giver to the family dog, Scooter, who lived to be a whopping 18 years old before passing a few months ago. Since Scooter's passing, Bonnie has directed his love of dogs toward helping others (including me) to make sure their dogs are happy, healthy, and exercised. Bonnie has taken care of my dog, a very big golden lab named Huxley, when I've traveled. He's also taken him on walks throughout the day when I was busy working and on fun trips to the Raising Cane's Dog Park. Huxley loves Bonnie and I would recommend him to anyone.”


11. Lisa & Erik M.


“My boy LOVED his time with Lisa, Eric, & their amazing children! ? he sometimes whines when I leave him with people he doesn’t know, but that was not the case here!?? I was sent photo updates of him playing with the kiddos, and also of him snuggled up on the couch watching tv, just hanging out. The minute I picked Blue up I could tell that he enjoyed himself and was well taken care of. Plus, now that we’re home he is wore slap out! (That’s a good thing lol!?) This family will be my Go-To Rover sitter everytime I’m in Slidell! P.S: If you’re trying to figure out who to leave your fur baby with, Lisa & Erics home is the perfect place. Your pup will be loved, fed, snuggled,& played with the whole time. Blue had a blast! Thankyall!☺️”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I grew up in a home with medium sized dogs and when I moved on my own, adopted 2 medium sized dogs. Met fiancée who had a large dog and fell in love with her dog. I helped her my dogs and hers to become friends. I enjoy taking dogs for walks, feeding them, and playing with them, bathing them. If they need to get somewhere, I have no issue with dogs riding in my car. I have raised my all of my dogs since they were 8 to 12 week old puppies. I have fully potty trained all of them on my own and would love to help your puppy on its path to properly becoming pretty trained. If you have any question on anything I can do for you and your dogs, please feel free to ask and I'll get back to you asap with a response. I currently work for food delivery apps with a 4.8 to 5 start trading on them all. Within my job schedule I can cost what goes I want to work. Because of this I'm very flexible to come help you with your dogs and take them for walks, drop in for a little play time, feed them, housesit your dogs as needed and help them out as needed. I have a fencedv yard and 2 dogs...a medium sized jug (Jack Russell/Pug Mix and a Black Lab mix) that would love to have some other dogs to play with. My dogs are very friendly. I have dog beds in front room and my bedroom fit the dogs to sleep on anytime they want. I let them roam the house as wanted too. When they have to go to the bathroom, they are trained to let me know. If they want to go play orv use bathroom outside in back yard... they will either go through their doggy door or to the back door to let us know. I'll go outside with them in the back and play with them after their potty break is done. If the go to front door, they are telling me they want to go for a walk.... so I grab their leashes and take them for a walk around our subdivision su they cash us the bathroom through the front of house while taking a walk. If they poo, I make sure to promptly clean it up.

20. Katie B.
About: I come from a big family of animal people! I grew up around a lot of animals and a lot of people who were fully dedicated to their care. We treat our pets like family, make sacrifices for them, and do anything it takes to keep them happy and healthy because that is the commitment we make when we choose to bring them into our lives. I have always had extremely high standards when it comes to who is trusted with my animals, and as a pet sitter i want to offer the level of care and commitment i’ve always expected for my own pets. Animal care is truly my biggest passion & interest and it would be such a privilege to spend time with your babies! I promise to give them my full attention & care at all times and keep them safe. I have about a year of experience in pet care volunteering at my local shelter, and have spent some time shadowing under a veterinarian at a clinic. I love cats and dogs equally and love the unique differences they bring to the table. A quote i live by is “may life treat you the way you treat animals.” I’m currently a stay at home wife. I would like pet care to become my main job and am available 7 days a week! I have a lot of alone time while husband is at work and i can’t imagine a better way to spend it than with some furry friends! There are currently no other pets in the home. I am home pretty much all day and am ready to play, go on walks, and give your baby all the attention they deserve! I will talk to you all about your pet and strictly follow any rules or requests to make sure any worries are addressed and taken care of and that the care i give is exactly what you had in mind for them. we have a big backyard with room to explore, lots of new smells, birds, squirrels, and nature sounds for them to take in! I am able to meet any care requirements you set in place. anything potentially dangerous to your pup will be securely locked away in a room that pup doesn’t have access to. I will make absolutely positive there is nothing dangerous on the floor or anywhere that they can get into. you can trust your babies with me. i do NOT accept outside only dogs.
