Dog Walking in Lafayette

About: I care about my animals that I am with! It's my priority to fulfill their needs. I been a pet lover all of my life so this will be less of a job, more of something I love to do. Taking care of animals would be in my free time which is usually around 4 days a week. I work part time at a clinic, so it would be around my hours! I make it a priority to be there for animals and make sure they have what they need and make them feel loved and cared for.

About: I provide attentive, compassionate care with experience supporting senior dogs and their unique needs. As a dedicated cat owner with four sensitive cats, I’m especially mindful of medications, routines, and subtle health changes, always giving extra care, patience, and consideration to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly loved like family. I am a full-time student whose classes end around noon, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies!

I am very attentive when it comes to my pets’ needs and it is my top priority for them to be taken care of <3

About: From Great Danes to little Teacup puppies, I have cared for dog of all shapes and sizes. I’ve watched and helped house train puppies and cared for all ages including seniors. I have also rescued multiple dogs and cats! I’m currently doing a homebound program for school so my hours are pretty flexible. Weekends are typically the easiest for more overnight stays. I am available to walk, watch, or let out your dogs most times of the day! I can typically crate dogs pretty easily with a treat or two as well as a little game if needed. I can clean up messes if your little fur balls have an accident! I also promise to love and care for your animals like they’re my own because every dog deserves love! I can handle bigger dogs as well as the loud ones on a leash. I’m also very good at distracting pups from distractions! I am also available to feed them as needed!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working in veterinary medicine for over 10 years and my passion for animals. I love them!!

About: I went to school for animal health and behavior and I use to be a zookeeper. I know my stuff! Also grew up on a farm. I currently have 3 dogs who eat breakfast and dinner of real food that I cook everyday.

No matter my schedule we stay with there's! I have a fenced in yard and my dogs are trained not to run out any door. We have safe toys in a toy box that we check for broken pieces that may be ingested.

About: I have experience working in multiple veterinary clinics, which gives me a deeper understanding of animal health and behavior than the average sitter. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience or special attention. I’ve also been pet sitting and boarding for over three years, so I’m used to keeping pets comfortable, sticking to routines, and making them feel safe while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel loved and stress-free. I recently moved to Lafayette from Pineville, I’m looking for new clients. I am available any day of the week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they get regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I make sure they stay on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I can provide your pet with safety and a lovable environment while in my care. Their physical and mental needs will be met to my best ability.

About: Hi! My name is Shayna Malonson, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs. I grew up with dogs my entire life, and now as an adult with my own home, I’m lucky to have two of my own: Ally (4 years old) and King (2 years old). They are a huge part of my daily life and have taught me so much about responsible, loving care. I personally bathe my dogs, brush their teeth, and handle their basic grooming after learning how to properly care for them myself. Through experience—especially managing my older dog’s dry skin—I’ve learned a lot about different dog food brands, skin-care products, and overall dog wellness. This has helped me become very attentive to each dog’s individual needs. In my free time, I enjoy playing fetch, going on simple walks, and giving my dogs plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I would love the opportunity to care for your dogs as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to plan feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest periods without rushing. I build my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they receive regular supervision, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning and evening routines, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m flexible and dependable. I enjoy keeping pets on a steady schedule so they feel comfortable and secure I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, dogs are treated like family and are always supervised. I make sure the space is clean, pet-safe, and free from hazards, with plenty of room for rest, play, and comfort. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with basic grooming care such as bathing and brushing, and I pay close attention to skin sensitivity, diet needs, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I never leave pets unattended outside. Trust and communication are very important to me. I provide updates, photos, and messages so owners feel confident and at ease while their pets are in my care. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: Have had pets since I was young. Experience with a variety ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles and rodents. Newborn to seniors and special needs. Recently stopped working and soon to be an empty nester when my daughter leaves for grad school. This will give me pretty much open availability. Will care for your pet in your home as if they were my own but with your instructions. They will never lack for love and attention.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid because growing up I would always come home with new ones all the time! I have all the time to play and train dogs now because I got one of my own. I also used to work at Sherwood South Animal Emergency and Critical Care Center as a kennel attendant. So I really have a lot of hands on experience on running a kennel as well as dealing with the hurt animals in the ER. And I know a lot about medication, routines and food routines so it shouldn’t be a problem with the experience I have. If I didn’t have to move to Lafayette Louisiana, I would love to stay at the emergency hospital, but we wanted to move to a family safe area. I really had a lot of love for the animals that I took care of and was really a great experience. I’m currently working part time and can sit or board pups durning the weekdays and weekends!! From 9am to 7pm I could walk the pups. Boarding whenever!! I have a black lab puppy at the moment and train and take her for walks very often. It would be great for her to have some pups for friends we have a fence in yard and a dog park as well!

About: Your pets aren't just guests; they are family. As a Veterinary Technician, I provide a level of care similar to having a pediatric nurse watch your children. My journey began at 18 as a bather and kennel tech, but my passion led me to work alongside some of the most skilled veterinarians in the field. ​Following the loss of my children’s father, Justin, I found myself at a crossroads, needing a career that allowed me to be there for my kids while still honoring my calling to work with animals. This led to my current mission: opening my own boarding facility in memory of Justin and my beloved rescue dog, Elsie, who stayed by my side from the day I met him until just days after his passing. ​When you trust me with your 'fur babies,' you aren’t just getting a sitter; you’re getting a professional dedicated to their health, happiness, and safety. I promise they’ll be wagging with joy the moment they hear my name!" I am currently not working due to conflicting hours with my children's school schedule. Therefore, I am flexible with pet sitting hours outside of school pickup/drop off times. As a person who has worked in animal health for a long period of time, safety is my main priority when it comes to your pet. I have done it all, from bathing pets to assisting in surgery. Your pet will always be in safe hands with me.

About: I am very friendly with trained dogs and get along well with them. I'm more familiar with cats, but ever-growing my dog person skillset. 😄 I work 40 hrs a week in an office M-TH and Work from Home on Fridays, Aside from my working hours I can attend to pet care as needed 🙂 Will Communicate if I can care for your pet asap 😄 I take care of all Homes with extra caution and care, I take pride in treating spaces I'm a guest in better than my own :)

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, same goes for cats. I grew up with multiple dogs, cats, a tortoise, and several rabbits. I work part time for the Recreation department as an After School Group Leader. Any time outside of 2pm-6pm on weekdays I can be there for your pet! I have been pet sitting independently for several years now, caring for anywhere between 3-7 cats at once and multiple dogs as well. My time management and customer (or fur baby) service is unmatched.

About: My family has always had multiple dogs, and at the age of ten i received my own puppy, a black lab named Tucker. We currently have eight dogs, all varying from small to large and young to old. Although i have more experience with dogs, we had our fair share of cats and kittens too. I have my own mobile massage business, so my schedule is flexible for a variety of pet services. Some of my hobbies include pole fitness, and going on adventures with my dog and boyfriend. I understand how important it is for our fur babies to have interaction during the day, so that they don’t get bored and destroy property. Please consider me for your next Rover job. I take my pup on a walk most mornings during the week and we go to the dog park most weekends. Play time is essential! When we go to sleep and when we leave the house my dog goes into the kennel, but if he’s allowed to come i will most likely bring him. My dog gets fed once a day.

About: I have a deep genuine love for animals! I treat them as if they were my own. I have a field able for pets to enjoy and a big track for walking. I have a dog of my own. His name is cooper and he is 4 years old. He is a border collie mixed with pekingese. I can always send updates when your pets are in my care. Available anytime. Ever since I was young I grew up with animals and would rescue them. I understand the safety of your pets and will make sure they are in great care so you have no worries. Food and water will always be available to animals and also on walks. I would love to care for your pet! I currently work a part-time job so I have a flexible schedule! I enjoy taking my dog to the park when I’m not working and he loves it. The neighborhood I live in is fenced in and is a safe environment. I am blessed to have a big field right in front of my home so my dog can run around as he pleases. There is a strict speed limit so I never have to worry about anyone driving recklessly and not see my dog. I enjoy making my home cozy enough for pets and make sure there’s enough toys and treats.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was roughly ten years old. I have experience with all age groups, training experience, and medical experience! I also have experience in potty training! I currently work fulltime for Rover, although that may change sometime in the future. I pride myself in taking the time and energy to devote myself to certain areas like pet care though. I follow rules to a T. I offer pet care in my home and I offer plenty of walks, playtime, love, and care! I always leave a clients home better than what I arrived to as well as a personal touch.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for a very long time you can even say my whole life. I’ve raised cats, dogs, birds, chinchillas, even a chameleon from babies to adults. I’ve potty trained many puppies, taught them tricks, and even cared for pregnant mommas with puppies. Cats are more of my specialty though i’ve litter box trained them, taught them to walk on a leash, tamed feral cats/kittens. I also volunteer from time to time at the Acadiana Animal Aid shelter helping care for cats/dogs in need of homes. I’m currently working full-time. I work an 8 hour day normally from 8 am - 5 pm, my hours are flexible though. I also have a 1 hour lunch I can take. I’m completely free most weekends. I have a mostly fenced yard where my dog Huck loves to play, it is a little small but we make do with the space we have. My dog and cats gets fed twice a day morning/evening. If I’m caring for an animal in a clients home I can visit in the mornings/lunch/evenings depending on the care needed.
