“She was so kind and easy to work with. She gave me a check in update and photos of my pets. She even cleaned up a little for me. 10/10 would highly recommend and will be booking again for future trips!”

“We had a great experience with Tenay. She took care of the house and the fur kids with tender love and care!! She went above and beyond when our dopey cat knock a paperweight off a shelf and onto a glass top desk, shattering it in the middle of the night. She made sure the cat and dog were both OK and then offered to clean it all up even though she had nothing to do with it!! We're looking forward to having Tenay back soon.”

About: My first fur baby was a dearly loved a shih tzu, that lived a long, spoiled life. Our current fur baby is the sweetest one-eyed old beagle, Katie, that loves nothing more than a nap. I love being a sitter on Rover, and the past few years have allowed me to meet so many great pets and develop my care taking skills. I have experience giving daily eye drops to my dog for her glaucoma. I also have experience giving dogs & cats insulin shots! With me, your pets will be able to get the medications they need and get plenty of hugs in between! I work full-time Monday - Friday in Baton Rouge. I am home on the weekends in Prairieville. During the business week, I am available for pet visits and after work walks with your fur baby in *Baton Rouge*. During the weekends I have more flexibility for Prairiville or BR availability. I have a large fenced in yard and a friendly, socialized 7 year old beagle. Our pets have always been treated like family and will be welcome on the couch for snuggles, taken out for exercise regularly and shown plenty of attention. We've also had a cat before, and my dog does well with feline friends too.
“We love having Kaitlyn stay with our three Golden Retrievers! Kaitlyn sent pictures, loved on the dogs and was very flexible throughout the week as our schedule change! She is wonderful and was very respectful of our home while we were gone! Looking forward to having our pups have her stay again!”

“Brodi definitely went above and beyond to make sure our pups were taken care of and comfortable while we were gone on our trip! She is so sweet and our dogs LOVE her. We will definitely be using her as many times as we can in the future! 10000/10 she’s amazing and I will recommend her as many times as I can!”

“We loved having Abbie watch our frenchie. He was well taken care of, loved, and she kept us updated daily! It was our first time using Rover and she took him last minute for us to leave town. We will definitely use her again!”

“Dweezil was very excited to see Caydence when she arrived. She took great care of him and treated our home with respect! We will definitely be using her services again in the near future.”

About: Senior care, puppy care. I can do both! Bonus, if your dog likes to run, so do I! Medications no problem, clipping nails, no problem. I work full time, so I’m available evenings, nights, and weekends. I can house sit certain nights, can do drop ins any day of the week. I have worked with a variety of species. I have no issues with reptiles, rodents, amphibians, cats, and dogs etc. I am passionate about animal care.
About: I’ve always had a passion for nature and animals you can find me taking my dog out on a trail hike every weekend! I’ve had multiple dogs in my life and know how to handle a variety of breeds (border collies, terriers, and larger dogs.) Animals are angels in my eyes and I hope to be able to take care of your angel and give you peace of mind and a carefree day! I currently attend LSU, so my schedule fluctuates depending what my classes require or if I have a test scheduled or even acting performance. I’m highly committed to my studies in wildlife conservation and resource management! I prefer not to host dogs in my house due to being a college student, but the app requires a response to be a sitter.
About: My whole life has been surrounded with pets (dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, and more)! I love entertaining, playing with, and loving on sweet animals. I’ve had stranger and friends reach out for service without even knowing I do it! I work at Chick-fil-a part time and I go to an hour away college two days a week. I am able to stop at the house at least twice a day, and also willing to stay the night! I make sure that they are fed, entertained, and played with! With some, I will play with them outside. With others, I will play with them inside. I make sure that they are not alone and loved on!
“Lauren was so awesome and friendly, and my dog loved her visits! She gave us lots of updates while she and Rouge played and walked. She was also super flexible about what I needed and times. I will 100% use and recommend her again!”

“Katie was amazing from start to finish! Professional, super clean, and our dogs were relaxed and at ease when we got back from our trip. We got oodles of pictures and even more peace of mind with Katie, she’s the best!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple ages and sizes. I follow schedules to a tee, feeding amounts, treat allowance, etc. I even have a friend on call who works in a veterinary office if ever needed. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday from 9:00am-4:00pm. I don’t work weekends unless necessary, but not often. I would let you know ahead of time or not accept on those weekends. I usually spend my free time doing school. I will follow your schedule to exactly how you wish it be done. Including the usual wake-up and bedtimes that they’re adjusted to, so that they’re not getting off of their usual schedule with you.
About: They say that pets/animals know a good person when they see and smell them. There's not a pet home that I walk into and am not greeted with excitement after giving rubs and cuddles. I am currently transitioning to be a stay at home mom, but I would like to continue to help others in need. My days are flexible at this time. Between 8:00m-3:00pm and 4:00pm to 6:00pm on weekdays, I can move outside of the home freely. Times outside of the listed times, I need to be within my home. I havr a 9 year old daughter who is great with animals, and she will not be left with any unsupervised. I have a fenced in back patio and a semi-fenced in back yard. Animals are not allowed to be alone and off the leash if in the backyard exploring. They are free to roam around the patio and home if applicable.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life(18 years) because I always had a cat or dog growing up and I have also taken care of families/friends pets. I’m currently in college at Southeastern for Nursing and I have a passion for animals as well. This summer I am available whenever for pet sitting. I have crates at my house that I can use and I have a fenced in very big backyard for dogs to run in and have a good time.
“Meghan was great! She dog sat for us while we were out of town and our pup loved her. She took her on walks, to the park, and stayed with her at night. We would definitely recommend her!”

Madison & Joshua have watched our pets many times and we trust them completely with our "babies" and our home. The relief of never having to worry about anything while in their care is invaluable. They also go above and beyond making sure our pets have a fun time! Thanks again!
