7. Kenzie S.
“Kenzie was absolutely wonderful. She has a huge heart for animals and it is very apparent in her abilities to care for other pets. Our pets were treated just like one of her own. I have a 6 month old Golden Retriever and a 14 year old Maltese mix, they each have very different needs and Kenzie was able to attend to each one and care for them just like I would. They both had a great time and I'm not even sure they wanted to come home! I would trust Kenzie with my animals anytime. She is number one for us and will not use anyone else.”

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 will be outside when the dogs are out. 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.

12. Christopher L.
“Chris has been a phenomenal caregiver to my three cats. When Chris pet sits for me, I am able to focus on other things because I know Chris is taking care of my cats as if they were his own. He makes sure he knows all emergency information, medication information, and even little things like their favorite toy to play with. I highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: I have grown up and worked with animals of all species my entire life. From cattle to cats, I've got experience with them all. I currently own 2 heelers and a couple of horses. I used to volunteer with the animal shelter and I'm also a vet tech for a Veterinary Clinic working with both small animals and horses.

I have a large yard for them to run and play. Or if needed, they can be kept in a crate or lead line. I am able to keep them as much on a normal routine as possible as if they were in their own home. If I am caring for them in your home, whatever is needed, I am able to do and keeo them on their normal schedule
