“Max loved his week long stay. My husband and I enjoyed the pictures and videos that were sent. Would definitely recommend them! We will be using them again. Thank you so much!”



“Best sitter for my puppy! The communication and loving care was beyond measure. I would always use Vanessa as my puppy care whenever I travel to Lafayette. She was awesome!!!”


About: I have raised and trained two puppies and I have also been a pet sitter for several families, caring for pets of all ages. I love to care for animals and provide them with lots of attention. I currently have a puppy who is very playful and she will be a great playmate for any dogs that like to play. I am happy to accommodate any special needs that your dog may have, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks if they like that. My schedule is generally pretty open for doggy daycare and boarding. I have a lot of availability but the days and times that I am available vary week to week. I am a massage therapist working part time out of my house, so when on a day that I have clients coming I will not be taking dogs. I am almost always available for overnight boarding. I have a fenced in yard and a puppy of my own that will give your dog company and entertainment. I am happy to take your dog on walks, feed and play with them, and give them snuggles if they like that.

“Kourtney was great!! She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, and was super easy to work with. I know my girl was in good hands while I was out of town. Highly recommend! :)”


About: I have loved all animals from a young age but have an especially soft spot for dogs. I have worked with a pitbull rescue in the past, volunteered at rescue events and shelters and my sister has been a vet tech for over a decade. I currently have 7 fur baby rescues of my own that I have found wandering the streets all different sizes and breeds : ) I work full-time but from home. I have a constant rotation in place for letting pups out to potty, play, and spend one on one time with them. I am almost always home except for a few hours throughout the week to workout or run errands. My personal pets have an underground fence that keeps them in the yard, however I have 3 large covered runs under the carport each with a grassy area and shop fans, cots, and large water basins if extended outdoor time is required other than a leash walk for your baby. Indoors I have 2 bedrooms designated for pups as well as a living area. I rotate groups throughout these areas as well as outside during the day as I have dogs of all ages and activity levels.

“So thankful to have found Simone! I always hesitate to leave my Bichon at a kennel because I know he is nervous and scared. This was a fantastic alternative for me. Simone and her family were wonderful to Andy and took great care of him. She updated me throughout Andy's stay with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated. I would recommend Simone to anyone looking to have their fur babies boarded, walked, etc. and plan to use her alot in the future. Thanks Simone!”


About: 💗 30+ Years Experience | Pet Lover & Rescue Mom 💗 About Me: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of hands-on pet care experience. From seniors to puppies, shy cats to sassy small breeds—I’ve cared for them all with patience, love, and genuine joy. I live with a small crew of rescues who remind me every day why I do this. Meet my furry family: 🐾 Sadie – my 17-year-old gentle senior pup who’s full of wisdom and love 🐾 Harley – a 9-year-old tuxedo cat with a flair for the dramatic and a heart of gold (even if he pretends otherwise) 🐾 Nemo – my 7-year-old Pomchi with a signature pout and a heart that melts for cuddles 🐾 Marley – a 5 lb Chi and the definition of a momma’s boy, always by my side Each of them came to me as a rescue, and their individual personalities have taught me how to tune into an animal’s needs—whether it’s a slow introduction, a cozy nap buddy, or just the right way to scratch behind the ears. I specialize in senior care, shy or anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’m comfortable with all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—because I know how important they are to you. What you can expect when your pet is with me: ✅ Calm, loving environment ✅ Personalized care based on your pet’s needs ✅ Medication administration (oral/injectable if needed) ✅ Regular updates and photos ✅ Deep understanding of pet body language & behavior Whether you’re headed out for a weekend or need a daily drop-in, you can feel confident your pet is in capable and compassionate hands. Let’s talk about how I can help give your pet a safe, loving experience while you’re away! I have a flexible job that allows me to schedule check-in visits throughout the week, so I’m available for midday potty breaks, feedings, or quick play sessions. I’m also free most weekends and happy to help with your pet care needs when you’re away! Safety & Trust Come First—In Your Home or Mine Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in your home, their comfort, routine, and safety are always my top priority. 🏠 In My Home: 🐾 Calm, pet-friendly space with constant supervision 🐾 Safe, secure, and clean environment—no hazards or crowded areas 🐾 Slow, thoughtful introductions to my own friendly rescue pets 🐾 Comfortable areas for seniors, small breeds, and nervous pets 🐾 Personalized care for puppies, kittens, and special needs pets 🐾 Experience with oral meds, eye drops, topical treatments, and some injectables (with instructions) 🚪 In Your Home: 🏡 Respectful, responsible care in your pet’s familiar environment 🔒 I follow your safety protocols: gates, crates, feeding routines, meds 🐕 I never rush—each visit includes time for cuddles, play, and proper care 📸 You’ll receive regular photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind 🩺 Experienced with senior and special needs pets—mobility issues, incontinence care, anxiety, or routine-based behavior needs 🍼 Confident with young puppies and kittens, including feeding schedules, socialization, and extra clean-up care With 30+ years of experience, I’ve learned how to tune into each pet’s unique needs and provide care that’s not just safe—but truly loving. Whether you’re heading out for a few hours or a full vacation, you can trust your pets are in good hands.

“An amazing sitter. I went on a 5 day cruise and was so nervous about leaving my fur baby with anybody. Thankfully, Tenashia took my very last minute request and the experience was a 10/10. Very responsive when I checked in on him. She cared for my dog as if he were hers, and I couldn’t be happier. Super friendly, when I met her I knew my baby was in good hands. Will definitely book again.”


About: From when I was a 9 year old scared kid and my dad throwing me into his boss’s dogs cage and saying,” They are more scared of you then you are of them,” I was always eager to know more of dogs. Almost 20 years later, my love for dogs has been growing, I’m not an animal expert but I do pay attention really well. I believe that matters when it comes to dogs because they say a lot by how they act. I currently work full time but if I can support myself by helping then I will most certainty do that because they say if you love what you do you’ll never work a day in your life I have a spacious house and a gentle giant (Great Dane) that would love some hugs and friendly kisses and tussles from another great canine

About: I have two rescue pups that I’ve had for over 9 years that are the sweetest and have made me fall in love with doggos! I will take care of your pup like they are my own and make sure they have all the fun. I can send photos and update you on your animals at all times! I’m currently working part time as a physical therapist so I have plenty of time to take care of and check on your pup throughout the week! I have a fenced yard and safe home for any dog. I have 2 dogs of my own that I keep separate from new dogs and only introduce if appropriate and safe!

About: We have always had pets in our home since I was little. I have grown up knowing how to take care of our pets and even trained them on my own. I have experience with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I have also worked as a kennel attendant with dogs ranging from newborn puppies to adult and senior dogs. I have also had experience training puppies. I can teach your baby how to properly walk on a lease, sit, lay down, and much more. I love all animals! I have a flexible position as a nanny at this time, and will have plenty of free time to focus on your pets needs and care! We have a fenced yard, doggy door, baby gates, and friendly dogs and cats for your fur babies to play with. I can walk, feed, toss a ball, or just hang out with your baby.

Heidi D.
“Heidi has been a life long pet lover, she grew up with all types of animals and has always expressed her love for them all. Dogs have always stood out as her favorite animal of them all. She never hesitated when her pups needed a walk and even taught her child hood dog how to get the paper in the mornings and I’m not sure if it was her or him but he always knew to wait until there were no cars coming. She has so much love for animals her last few high school dance photos are with her dog. She would make an amazing dog sitter and has dog sat for me plenty of times in the past. She has always handled both my brand new puppy and my older dogs as her own and I know she would do the same for anyones family pet.”
