“Desiree was amazing! She showed up on time and went above my expectations on walking/feeding my dog Scooby. I will most definitely be using her again. Thank you!!!”


About: I've been pet sitting for friends and friends-of-friends since I was 22. I am comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes and ages as well as small animals (hamsters, bunnies, birds, etc). I love to spend a little extra time when pet sitting, whether it's just a stop in or overnight, so I can get to know every animal's quirks and personalities! I am completely capable of complex instructions/feeding routines; I just want your fur baby to be happy, healthy, and comfortable! I work at the university so most days I am flexible with my schedule before 9 and after 3, but I am able to pop out for a feeding or walk over lunch as well. Evenings are often completely open and available for overnights - my cat has an auto feeder in the case I do need to stay elsewhere overnight so I am able to do that if you'd like! I am happy to follow any instructions no matter how particular or complex! Every pet has their own quirks about how they like/need to be taken care of :) I am also sure to carefully introduce myself with each encounter as I know I am a new face (with cats especially) and will follow your pet's lead on how much they are interested in engaging. Overall, I'm just trying to be sure all the animals are comfortable while someone new is taking care of them!

“She was so sweet to my baby!”


“Speedy response and ask the right questions”


“Alex was great with Lenny, very dependable, and communicated well. He gave an update and provided photos after each walk. I will definitely reach out to him next time Lenny needs a walk!”


About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.

About: I’ve never met an animal I didn’t like. I’m familiar with young to older pups/cats. I am familiar with giving meds if needed and can also walk your pet/pets and provide you with photos or videos if you like. I’m currently a a business owner and Sailor with the Navy Reserves and my schedule is flexible/open. I would have availability mornings, midday, and afternoons/evenings. My yard is fenced in, I have four small doggos and one cat that could accompany your pet or mines/yours can be crated if needed.

About: Hi!! I graduated from Veterinary Technician school about a year ago and am currently working on applying to vet school. Through school, I’ve also done clinical rotations through MedVet and LSU vet school. I currently work full time at a vet clinic in Houma and have been here for 3 years now. I’m willing to take puppies-seniors and of course, kitties and am extremely comfortable with giving medications, insulin, fluids and any extended needs. I’ve known I wanted to become a veterinarian since I was 5 years old and couldn’t see myself in any other field! I am currently working full time but can absolutely check on your pet before and after work. I work 8-5 Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and 8-12 on Thursdays and Saturdays. I currently live in an home with my Golden Retriever, Silo, Golden mix, Link and two cats, Fish and Octavio. This being said, I would rather do in home visits but could possibly board over the weekend. Silo is a huge sweetheart, who is shy but ever loving to anyone he meets and Link loves to have friends over. I would also require vaccine records for boarding.

About: I’ve had 10+ years of dog experience. I was introduced to big breed dogs at the age of 5 and have been in love with them since. I have experience in caring for dogs and corrective behavior. My Availability schedule is very flexible. I make 30 minute house calls at your convenience and I will do up to 3 days of overnight sitting in your home. I think that it is very important to keep pets in their own familiar environment, therefore, I take suggestions from owners about their dog’s favorite hobbies and parks.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was little and have a special place in my heart for dogs! Over the years, my friends and family have trusted me with their fur babies and I would love for yours to be part of my family! I am currently available for afternoons and weekends! Please send me a request with your preferred dates and times and I will do my best to accommodate you! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly fur babies to keep yours company :) I also have a large crate if ever needed for the comfort of your pet.


“Jessica is 100 percent reliable and trustworthy. She is super sweet and treated my boys with kindness, love and treats. Thank you Jessica !!”


About: I’ve taken care of animal for about 10 years now. From them being neighbors, family or friends pets to working with animals at daycare centers or rescues. If you’re looking for the absolute best care for your pet , I’m right here! I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m a stay at home dog mom so I’m available anytime that you need from 6 am to 5pm. I will walk, feed, bathe or anything else you might need for your pet in your own home. I will also do medications for animals if they have any!
About: With 11 years of experience caring for various animals, I bring a wealth of knowledge and dedication to pet care. I spent two years working as a veterinary technician in a clinic, where I honed my skills and deepened my understanding of animal health. I personally care for my own 11-year-old Morkie, and my love for animals is evident in every interaction. Currently, I'm pursuing a degree in international business and marketing at LSU, with one year remaining. My passion for animals drives me to treat every pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I currently work as a waitress at a restaurant but I only work nights from around 4pm till around 9pm 5-6 days a week. So when I’m not at work all my free time will be on your pet and I don’t work long hours so when I do work they won’t be home alone for long. I will care for them just like I care for my own. Your dog or cat will be allowed to sleep with me and also be allowed on all furniture if you allow it. I will always walk them on a leash and will do everything you ask of me while your dog or cat is in my care

About: I currently work full time as a graphic designer, but I love pets and have always had one since I was a child. I currently have two Australian Shepherds, which we got when they were puppies. They travel with us everywhere and are pretty much attached at the hip. I love them so much and enjoy spending time with them. I help my friends out as well with their pets when they are gone. I truly enjoy taking care of animals and figured this would be a good way to feed my passion. I would love to help you out in any way, by giving your pup a walk or just hanging out with them. I hope that I can help you out! Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.

About: My dog is weird and needs things a certain way to feel comfortable, I understand this. Your fur baby is also special and needs things to make sense in order to be happy. I will learn these things and make sure that I provide the type of care I’d give my own dogs to yours. I work a full time job, but I can do early morning visits or late afternoon during the weekdays. On the weekends I pretty much got fully availability. My pets have a routine and so do yours. I take a lot of pride in following instructions and being someone you can rely on. If you say your pet needs to eat at 3pm sharp, then that is what will be done. If you say to tuck your pet in with a blanket but leave their little nose out, I understand. Rest assured, instructions will be followed with the best judgement

About: As a dog mom I understand the lengths people will go to to make sure their pets are taken care of. The attention and love I expect my babies to receive when I am not available for them is exactly I want to provide for you when you aren’t able to be with your pets. As we all know our pets are our babies. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to fit your schedule. I am open to drop on visits but I can also play with them if you need or take them for a walk. Once we build rapport I am open to talking about them coming stay at my house. I have a fully fenced in yard if you need me to care for them or I can simply drop by your place for a visit.

About: I have worked in veterinary clinics for over two years and I currently work as a veterinary technician at an animal shelter. I’ve also house sat for a number of clients with animals that required frequent care and attention. I also offer nail trims and baths, including medicated baths if necessary I have just recently moved to Louisiana and I look forward to meeting as many clients as possible to hopefully build a relationship. I would like to be your go-to sitter! My number one goal is to make owners comfortable while away, knowing that their best friends and fur-children are in good hands while also ensuring that your home is well taken care of. I have years of experience and multiple return clients that can back this up! Also, my veterinary experience allows me to administer medication effectively as well as special treatments if it is needed.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds my whole life! I have even worked as a Veterinary Assistant during my college days! I have 4 dogs of my own currently, and I have fostered for rescues as needed the past 6 years. Just my love of animals is my passion to help take care of others pets when they can't. I work for myself as a Realtor, and out of my home so I can help take care of others pets with my flexible schedule. I have 4 dogs, and my dogs get stressed in New environments. I would prefer to care for your pets in their own home where they are most comfortable.

About: I’ve always loved caring for animals. I am always the go to for friends and family members when they need pet sitting. I am very patient and caring. I do have a dog (3yrs), a cat (2yrs), a bearded dragon (12yrs), and a guinea pig (4yrs). Right now, I would like to start off offering servicing on weekends and hope to expand those offers later on. I do work during the week as of right now and have Saturdays and Sundays completely off. I provide a very loving and caring environment for all my pets. They are well provided for and given the proper attention. Right now, I can only sit smaller animals as I hope this will change once I move. I am open to providing services at client’s home as I would strictly be going there to take care of the pet and provide the necessary/desired services.

About: It feels like I have taken care of dogs my whole life! I currently have a 4 year old German Shepherd. My neighbors, friends, and family have always been able to rely on me to walk, feed, and bathe their fur babies. I am currently a full time student and work part time. My day to day is flexible enough to work around your schedule or needs. I have a very friendly, playful female dog who will keep your fur baby company if needed! We walk and visit local dog parks often.

“Desiree was amazing! She showed up on time and went above my expectations on walking/feeding my dog Scooby. I will most definitely be using her again. Thank you!!!”


Melissa K.
“Of course! Here's a glowing review you could use: --- Missy is absolutely incredible! We have trusted her to care for our two dogs, Squirt and Bubbles, many times, and each experience has been amazing. She treats them like her own, giving them endless love, attention, and care. It's such a relief knowing they are in such capable and compassionate hands whenever we are away. Missy is reliable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals — our pups are always so excited to see her! We could not ask for a better person to look after Squirt and Bubbles. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pets with the utmost love and dedication, Missy is THE BEST!!”

“Brandon has such an incredible connection with animals. He has the amazing ability to quickly befriend almost any animal he meets. He has fostered kittens and cats, taking a special interest in “spicy” kittens, preparing them for adoption in the local shelter. He has also personally rescued several dogs over the years, three of which have become beloved family members. This love and care I know would be given to any animal he would care for.”
