About: Ever since the age of 10 I’ve had responsibilities for our pets; taking them out to potty, playing/exercising, cleaning up any accidents, making sure they have food and water, and bathing. I would be happy to take care of and love on your babies! I’m currently on summer break from college and dog sitting is my only job so I have plenty of time available to care for your pets. I don’t board any pets at my house, but I do go to the client’s home. I can stay over at the house if that’s what the client would prefer, or do drop-ins.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated, long‑time animal care professional with over 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician and another 5 years working in animal rescue and adoption services. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including seniors, special‑needs pups, and dogs who require behavior‑savvy handling. My vet tech background means I’m comfortable with medication administration, monitoring health changes, basic first aid, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. My rescue work has given me deep experience with fearful, energetic, or previously underserved dogs, and I always meet each dog exactly where they are—patiently and positively. Above all, I’m an all‑around animal person who truly loves building trust and making sure your dog feels safe, understood, and well‑cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, or keeping a consistent routine, I’m here to give your pup the same level of care I’d want for my own. I currently work full time but will make your pets a priority. I can drop in any time in the morning/afternoon. Weekends are a breeze and I can do over nights. I can be flexible to any pet parents needs. We have a doggy park, or I can leash walk in my own yard. I have 3 very friendly, senior dogs. I can crate animals or leave them out. I can pretty much do it all in whatever environment if comfortable for clients.

About: I didn’t have pets growing up but I’ve always wanted them! When I started my own family, me and my husband got our first pet cat named Sebastian and we love and care for him as if he was another one of our kids! We also added a dog named Astro to our growing family a couple of years after getting Sebastian, and he is so sweet and friendly. I have learned so much over the past few years about how to care and treat animals and I have enjoyed every minute of it! I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m currently working from home from 6am-3pm and I can even stop by on my lunch break! Weekends I have the most flexibility. I will treat your cats/pups with respect and give them the outstanding service(s) they need with a whole lot of love and care! I will take them on long walks and make sure they eat/drink well!

About: I’ve been in pet care for many years taking care of my own pets and other pets in my pre-vet collegiate career. I have background experience in agriculture and large animal care as well. I work from home so my pets are my day long coworkers! They help give me structure and a routine instead of sitting at my desk all day long. Spending time with them is always something to look forward to. I treat any animal the same as I treat my own pets. My dog is the light of my life and I know other pet parents feel the same about their own babies.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over 7 years and have had cats and dogs my whole life. I truly love all animals and have cared for many, including some from birth who lost their mothers. From playful pups to senior pets, I treat every animal like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work full-time during the day, but I’m off in the evenings, on the weekends and have half days on Wednesdays and Fridays. When I’m free, I plan on dedicating to pet care and schoolwork. I have an inside cat, but he is house trained and yard trained. I also did this with my grandparent’s dog who they’ve had since 2018. She is a very playful dog who loves outside play. They had a fenced in yard, but I would take her to the park often to give her more room to run around.

About: Effective 09/10/2025 I will be available in the SW Louisiana area for services! My name is Kloe, and I am a 27 year old RN who is deciding to pursue her dream of working with and helping animals full time! I am enrolled in online courses for Veterinary Nursing through Purdue University. I am also a registered nurse with a Bachelor’s degree from Lamar University in Beaumont, and I hope to continue working part time in this role. I have loved and owned animals all my life. I routinely picked up strays starting as young as 10. I have four dogs of my own at the moment, but I have had as many as 10 in my home at a time! I have a long history of fostering dogs as well as dog sitting, both in the Houston area as a Rover sitter and privately in the smaller community of Jasper, TX. I have volunteered with multiple shelters and rescues since high school, and I have experience with a wide range of behaviors, personalities, and breeds. I have functional/basic bathing and grooming skills, such as nail trimming; I’m willing to add these services on for any new booking - whether it’s just check ins/walks or doggy daycare/boarding. Please reach out to me with any questions, even if you’re only lightly considering a new human friend for your dog! I am quite flexible, and I am looking forward to getting to know new families and pups in the area! My current routine can be a bit chaotic - between my career as a nurse, my vet tech program, and my own personal zoo to care for - but luckily this has made me a very flexible person! I an available most week days for walks, check ins, and anything else I can provide. I will be more selective with boarding or house-sitting so I can make sure your pets get the best care possible! Please reach out for any scheduling concerns and I would be happy to discuss how I could help. I am a very safety oriented person with my own animals and especially with others’ animals. I am very observant of my pets’ behaviors and personality so that I can identify potential problems early on and intervene. I enforce good leash manners at all times and overall encourage polite, calm behavior from my animals. I love to play a good round of fetch or tug-of-war and have no problem work with just about any behavior or play style.

About: I have worked for a year and a half at a doggie daycare/boarding service as a kennel technician. I owned a dog since I was 7 years old and was responsible for walking, feeding, training, and bathing her. Unfortunately, the dog aforementioned has passed the rainbow bridge as of December 2023. I am now 25 years old. I have also worked for a 24/7 veterinary hospital for 8 months as a veterinary assistant. I know how to properly restrain animals using Fear Free techniques. I can also trim nails and provide bathing. Lastly, I worked at a local dog walking/pet sitting company for about 4 months. I have had experience taking care of dogs and cats throughout my time at this company which serviced all of Monmouth County, New Jersey. I’m looking to go all in on pet care, so I am going to be available 7 days a week. I’m looking forward to scheduling with you! I have a lot of energy, so I would love your pets as my companions on my many daily walks. I currently share a pet-friendly apartment with my fiancé, therefore, I am open to providing all services from boarding to house-sitting for all of your pet-care related needs!

About: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved animals. I think fur babies are the sweetest thing because although they’re only with you for a little of their lives, you’re with them for all of theirs. I currently have a Shih Tzu & tuxedo cat of my own named Marble who are big babies. I currently work remotely Monday-Thursday 8:30 AM-4:30 PM so I’ll be home just about the whole day with your furry ones! Potty breaks, walks, and movie nights here won’t be a problem! I have a large yard next to my house so potty breaks won’t be a problem. Also I have an adult fixed Shih Tzu that loves naps, belly rubs, and playing to keep your fur one company!

About: I am active and love to be active with a canine. I moved back to Louisiana from Hawaii in 2021. I have been an active Rover sitter in Honolulu since 2018. I love dogs and enjoy when they visit my home. My sweet Bear passed away last year so opening my home to care for other fur babies is extra special. I would really like to share the love I have to give with your dog/s. Also, I know dogs miss their owners and get lonely when their loved ones are away. I enjoy being able to keep your dog/s company and make sure they have all of their needs met; love, attention, treats, activities, etc. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals (wild and domestic). I have owned dogs, cats, cows, horses, rabbits, chickens, sheep, goats, pigs, guinea pigs, hamsters, skunk, fish, turtles, sugar gliders, and prairie dogs. I have a college degree in biology and I worked as a veterinary tech while attending college. I work and babysit part-time so my schedule is flexible. I am home to cuddle and spend time in the yard as needed. We love to play outside. I have a fenced in yard with quite neighbors. It is very peaceful in my backyard. I love to spend time outdoors in my yard unless it is extremely hot or raining. I also love to take fur babies on outings to parks and wildlife areas.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from farm animals to household pets, big and small, healthy and sick. Saying I love being around animals would honestly be an understatement! Over the years, I’ve helped care for ducks, horses, hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and more on a daily basis. I grew up with my own pup, Klare, and spent years taking her on daily walks and activities to help her burn off all that pit bull energy. Currently, I help care for a Pomeranian, a Wirehaired Pointer, and a Pit Bull mix, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and strengths, and I’m very attentive to animal behavior and body language to help keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or overnight care, I will treat them like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to walk, care for, or pet sit your furry family member! ❤️🐾 I am a full time student with a rotating clinical schedule, but I have availability throughout the week and on weekends. I keep a flexible schedule and am happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their needs. 🐶🐾❤️ Im very respectful of one’s accommodations and requirements. I take full responsibility to leave you happy and worry free with everything your pet needs. Need an update? A picture of ur pet on the walk or while you’re gone? I got you! I can apply myself to any tasks needed.
