About: -13 yrs of experience watching family and friend's pets -experience with all types of dogs including elderly and special needs -experience in walking, feeding, taking out, etc. -experience giving dogs medicine daily and special feeding per owners instructions I'm very available inbetween jobs. I do work 8 hr shifts as of now some days. I'm available to sit in the clients home, to walk, help with special pet needs, etc. I own two elderly animals so unfortunately can't sit in my own house but am more than happy to travel to petsit. Please specify the schedule and we can see if it's a good fit (: I will follow rules set by the owner per how they choose to like their pet watched. I'm happy to play with them and take them outside if allowed or keep them inside and off furniture if preferred.

“Alex is fantastic. She was so good with my pup. She asked questions about his temperament and personality, she listened to my instructions about how to greet him because we’re working with another trainer; the whole nine. She brought my pup back and he whined when she was leaving like watched her car and whined. He was so happy to be with her and he came back so tired!! I will absolutely continue to use Alex and would recommend her to any of my friends and family.”

“My puppy absolutely loved Annalyse! He was so excited for his first walk and can't wait for the next one. She did an amazing job, and I could tell he had a great time. She's wonderful!" 🐾😊”

About: I am well versed in anything that includes animals. My father has owned a dog business for over 15 years and I have helped him throughout my whole life. I am also very well versed in horses and work for a couple people around their barn! I am a college student, but I have a very flexible schedule. I also work a few jobs but that doesn’t interfere with my scheduling. I have a fenced in yard with my own fur baby to keep your company! My roommate also has her own fur baby who will be happy to mingle with yours.

About: I have experience caring for both puppies and adult dogs of all breeds, including those with special medical needs that require medication. I’m also very comfortable with shy or timid dogs and always take a patient, gentle approach to help them feel safe and at ease. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, and I pride myself on being reliable and punctual. Although I work full-time, I have flexibility throughout the day to ensure your dog’s needs are met, including extra care or attention when needed. My home is pet-friendly and welcoming, with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. I also have a friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pups, helping create a calm and social environment where visiting dogs can feel at home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make sure my dog gets at least an hour of exercise every day, whether that’s through walks, playtime, or a mix of both. On weekends, I love taking my pup on longer adventures or extended walks to keep things fun and enriching. Caring for pets isn’t something I have to “fit in”—it’s a priority and an enjoyable part of my lifestyle. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with a fenced backyard for play and plenty of supervised attention throughout the day. I make sure visiting dogs feel comfortable and cared for, whether that’s through regular walks, playtime, or simply giving them the affection they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine consistent and familiar. That includes feeding, exercise, administering medications if needed, and, of course, spending quality time with them so they feel secure while their family is away. My goal in either setting is to give pets the same love and attention I give my own.

About: Ive been rescusing and caring for animals since a little girl, whether it’s turtles, birds or snakes. They all receive the same care. Thank you I’m a Stay at home mom so my schedule is very open. Me and my son tend to go outside and go for walks every now and then so it’ll fit out schedule just fine. I offer pickup / drop off services Grooming is also included in my service: Shampooing/Conditioning: Nail Trim : Ear Clean and Deshedding Treatment to help!

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life as long as I can remember. I am so grateful to say I've never gone a full year without a fur baby in my life! Having had many pet dogs and cats over the years, I am very experienced with both puppies and full grown dogs and cats. I am currently a full-time student at Southeastern Louisiana University about to start my Master's in counseling. I am available Monday through Thursday to care for pets before and after school, Fridays, and Saturdays! I treat pets with the same respect and care that I do humans. It is so important to me to help bring joy and safety to the animals I care for. Cleanliness, timeliness, and communication are also important to me and I prioritize them on every visit.

About: I have 4 animals I care for on a daily basis. I have cared for friends' animals and am often asked to take in animals that people find. I love animals and caring for them. I work throughout the day but I walk my dogs at night and I have activities planned for them throughout each day so pet care is already a part of my routine and fits in well. I care for pets in my house based on their needs and the needs of the owner. I care for pets in other's homes also based on pet needs and the needs of the owner. If I am given instructions, I will follow those closely. I understand the importance of routine in a pet's schedule.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary office, where I’ve gained valuable knowledge about pet health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing special care for senior pets or those with medical needs. I also have experience training puppies, helping them learn basic commands and positive habits with patience and kindness. Above all, I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving each pet personalized attention, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding cats, or spending quality time playing and comforting animals, I make sure to prioritize their needs consistently. Working at a vet office has taught me the importance of regular schedules, so I’m very organized with feeding times, medication administration, and exercise to keep pets happy and healthy. I genuinely love making pet care a regular, rewarding part of my life. When pets stay in my home, I create a warm and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I stick to their regular feeding and exercise schedules to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I provide plenty of playtime and affection to help them feel happy and secure. I’m attentive to their individual needs, including any medication or special care, and I always monitor their health closely. My home becomes a cozy, caring space where pets can relax and enjoy their time while their owners are away.

About: I have always had animals in my life. I know each one is different and special. I grew up on a farm so I know having a loving and compassionate person to care for your babies is a necessity when you have animals. I am a stay at home mom so while the kids are at school I have plenty of time to come by and play with your babies. I have a fenced in courtyard area in my home. We also have two dogs that love other dogs. One is a rescue Maltese and is 12 years old. The other is a 2 year old poodle, he is my husband's service dog so usually he is at work with my husband all day.

About: I love dogs! I have 1 very spolied dog, King. He's a4 year old boxer that gives an impression that he'll eat you for lunch, but he's the biggest sweetheart!! I spoil and love on him every chance I can. He'll never want for anything, except more kisses! I want to share that love with other dogs in my spare time. I have a lot of love to go around. Your fur baby will go on walks and updates will be left for you to view upon your return! I am a very honest and reliable individual. I am punctual probably to a fault. Dont want me feed treats to your furry friend? I will never do what I am told not to. You can trust me and you'll be recommending me to your friends!! King usually sleeps all day, but I make sure he goes out and runs around several times a day. I go on long walks, but he had a very expensive surgery and I don't think he can take long walks. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or a client's home, all rules will be followed. My primary reason for being on Rover and caring for dogs is to make sure that nothing is missed while the hoomans are away!

About: I’ve had multiple of different breeds of dogs and cats in my life and almost all of them had an underlying condition I’ve needed to be watchful for. Owning a golden retriever and German shepherd myself, I know tons of tips, tricks, and have tons of time for all the love and care in the world. I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment and I’m willing to work with whoever needs for me to take care of their fur baby. 😊 Having two rambunctious fur babies myself, I ensure that during play time I am able to watch and monitor any specific behavior, or if it’s gets a little too “WWE” 🤣 I understand that when I’m going into your home it may be uncomfortable to have a stranger come in, but I am more than happy to provide a background check, a meet and greet, and just about anything to make sure all parties are comfortable. 😊

About: With over 7 years of hands-on experience and a lifelong love for animals, I bring genuine passion and reliability to every pet I care for. As a dedicated pet parent to two happy, well-loved dogs, I understand the importance of trust, safety, and personalized attention. I treat every pet like family—because that’s exactly what they deserve. As a self-employed bakery owner, I have the flexibility to make my own schedule—meaning I’m available any time of day to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening visits, I can adapt to meet your pet’s needs. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide loving care, and keep your home tidy—ensuring comfort, safety, happiness, and plenty of tail wags while you’re away.

About: In this house we love to play and have fun. Walking is one of the funniest and healthiest activities we do and swimming as well!! No kids in this house and we have a fenced back yard for babies to play freely outside. Safe neighborhood and lots of friends around to play with. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I handle feeding, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’m able to take care of feeding, fresh water, walks. I care for pets by providing daily feeding, fresh water, playtime, and close supervision, whether in my home or a client’s home. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m able to give them plenty of attention throughout the day. In my home, pets also have access to a large yard where they can safely play and get exercise.

About: All the Doggies sleep with me in my bed! They are allowed on furniture & anywhere they’d like to be comfortable. I worked for Companion Animal alliance in Baton Rouge working with dogs & cats as a caretaker. I mobile groom for people around the Livingston parish area & I’m well known on the nextdoor app. I have a bunch of references! I am very passionate about your fur babies & one day will open up my own business building for grooming/boarding & as new clients you would be adding to my fund for that. It has been my life long dream to accomplish this one day & I am going to keep working towards that. I want to expand this business into something much bigger & for people to feel at ease with leaving your babies in the care of someone who will love them unconditionally. All you have to bring for your baby is their dog food/cat food. I have dog/cat bowls, leashes, toys, puppy pads, litter boxes, litter, cat toys, cat/dog beds, ( I supply dog treats ) I do not put the babies in kennels unless instructed to do so by you if you bring your own. At bed time I put on relaxing music for the dogs to calm down & sleep, heating pads for cold nights, lots of blankets & beds. Any of their comfort items I would suggest bring with them. I do live in a new trailer, lots of room for your babies to roam & play! non smoker. I have experience with large dogs to small dogs, senior dogs & ones with bad anxiety or kennel aggressive ect. I also have experience with birds, especially parrots. I know how to handle in any situation when it comes to different behaviors from animals. I am also pit bull friendly 💕 The babies I board/doggy daycare have FREE ROAM. Which means they can go as they please anywhere in my home, they can sleep with me or they can sleep on the couches or their beds, but If you prefer your baby in a kennel at night, I will respect your wishes. I only have one kennel designated just for that.. You will receive lots of pictures/videos & updates to the point where it may be a little annoying but you’ll never have to text me first checking on them. I give them lots of love! I stay home everyday with the babies, so they will get all of the attention they need. The night before pick up/drop offs, I do give them a bath, each one no matter what. I can pick your dog up or drop them off, I have never had an issues with any dogs fighting, running off or accidents. I am VERY experienced in RUNNERS, the ones who wait for you to open the door to escape. Never had a runner succeed in getting away. I can clip your babies nails & give them a little trim if need be free of charge. If your dog needs medication I can administer it to them at the times needed. Prozac, prednisone, insulin, antibiotics ect, I’m familiar with all. Thank you for taking the time to read this & hopefully you have found the right sitter for your baby/babies. 🐶 I bring the babies to the dog park twice a week along with water treats & toys. I can manage 5 at a time ( leashed ) I do have a fenced in yard with a doggy pool, it’s covered & has pet turf. Lots of room for your baby to play!! This is what I do for a living! I eat breathe & sleep doggies. I stay home full time & when I say full time it’s me & the pups home everyday. I LOVE & taking care of your 4 legged sweetie pies, when you book with me it will allow me to continue to care for the fur babies & accomplish my life long dream to open up a bigger place to care for more. 💕 I truly appreciate repeat customers, but with inflation the way that it is, the cost of gas being so high, I had to make the difficult decision to raise my prices up to $2 more since last year. I understand if you choose to look elsewhere for services, but I hope that you choose to continue to use me. & for new clients ❤️ I have a small male dachshund that gets along with animals & kids very well! I am 100% committed to your pets to make them & you comfortable with my services. I treat my clients babies just like I would my baby!

About: I have worked with big dogs like Great Pyrenees and , medium dogs like Pit bulls, and small dogs like toy poodles. My most recent dog lived to be 14 years old and so I’ve grown an appreciation and understanding of care for those dogs. My current dog is a fostered young Pit Bull from the shelter. I don’t discriminate on dog breed or age. I also works with snakes so I’ve had my fair share of bites, it’s just something that comes with the job. I haven’t owned a cat of my own but I love cats and am starting to realize I may be a cat person! I’m currently a Grad student at SELU so I’m busy on Mondays and Wednesday’s but have a lot more time over the weekend and during Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. I crate trained my current foster dog so I can crate your animals if necessary. I also have a back yard so I’m used to letting animals out on a leash.

About: Hi there amazing pet parents! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Since I was a teenager, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Professionally, I’ve worked at several kennels, volunteered at Tangi Humane Society & been a foster mom for Cajun Tails Rescue, worked at Hammond Veterinary Services, and I’m currently with Hickory Small Animal Hospital as I am also pursuing veterinary technician license. I’m trained in pet CPR, administering medications and vaccines, and have experience with both energetic puppies and senior pets with special needs. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have three friendly fur babies of my own at home who love making new friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing them with the love and care they deserve! 💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—it’s something I’ve built my schedule around for years. Whether it’s morning walks, mealtime routines, training sessions, or evening playtime, caring for animals is second nature to me. Since I work in a veterinary setting and have pets of my own, I’m constantly engaged in caring for animals both professionally and personally. It’s not just a job for me—it’s a lifestyle I love and live every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like family—they have plenty of space to play, relax, and enjoy companionship with my own friendly dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. When caring for pets in your home, I work to maintain their normal routine to reduce stress while you’re away. I respect your space and make sure everything is clean and tidy when you return. I provide regular updates, photos, and am always just a message away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or specialized care, I tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs.
