Grady is simply the best! Our dogs love him and he gives them so much love, walking and fun while we are gone, I’d be surprised if they were happy we are home. He made our trip a lot less stressful by knowing he was taking such good care of them.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I only watch one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.

Kasha was absolutely amazing! My boys loved her so very much. I ended up coming home earlier than expected and Kasha was taking the boys on a walk when I got there. I expected them to freak out seeing me… nope they were happy and content being with her. She sent me pictures of the boys, kept me updated, even cleaned my camper for me! I highly recommend Kasha and will definitely be having her help me with my boys again in the future!!

About: Hi! I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me! I know every dog has their own personality and needs so I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them most comfortable. I’m available for dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, and sitting/general care. If your dog isn’t feeling well or needs a little extra attention I’m patient and attentive to their needs. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. Whether your dog needs exercise, company, or basic care while you’re away I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I work part-time and have a flexible schedule which allows me to plan time for your dog’s needs. Whether it’s dog walks, feeding, potty breaks, or check-ins throughout the day: I can be there! I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely! I make sure they are fed on schedule, get fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe for the pet. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.

Shae was great! She sent us pictures when she got to the house with the dogs. She played with them and took great care of them while we were gone. Our house was in the same condition it was when we left. Everything went excellent! She kept us updated through out the night. Will definitely use her again!

Robin did a great job and helped us to have a wonderful relaxed vacation! She is so sweet and you can see how she genuinely loves animals. She sent us cute photos of our cats so we could see their faces and knew at all times that they were doing well. She left the house clean and even washed and dried the sheets from the bed. We will absolutely book with her again and recommend you do as well!

About: I’ve been walking and caring for animals since I was a young child, so I bring a lot of hands-on experience and confidence in handling pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to keep them safe, happy, and well-exercised. I’m currently working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I’ve developed strong time management and organizational skills that translate well into pet walking and training. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be available during key times of the day for walks, check-ins, and consistent training sessions. Since I’m already accustomed to planning my day around routines, I’m able to reliably incorporate pet care into my schedule while maintaining a high level of attention and consistency. This flexibility also means I can accommodate client needs more easily and provide dependable, attentive care for their pets. I provide a safe and trustworthy environment by prioritizing consistency, attentiveness, and clear communication. Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I’m able to closely monitor their behavior, comfort, and safety at all times. My experience working with animals since childhood has taught me how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and respond appropriately. I also maintain a clean, organized space and follow any specific instructions from pet owners regarding routines, feeding, and training. Building trust is very important to me, so I make sure to communicate regularly with updates and ensure each pet is cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine attention.

About: Hello, I’m so excited to have you stumble upon my account!! My name is Montanna and I’ve lived in Louisiana my whole life. From Gonzales, to Denham Springs, to Baton Rouge, and now in Uptown. I’m 27 years old and graduated from LSU back in 2021 with a degree in Nutrition. My family has ALWAYS had animals whether it be 14 kittens at once! A couple bunnies, or just a classic family dog. From a very young age I've always felt like animals were my friends just as people were. I love to make a strong connection with pets where I know they know they can trust me. I go on long walks everyday anyway (10-15k steps) and love getting sunshine. I also spend most of my other time in the house watching movies and sewing on my sewing machine and have plenty of time to give care and attention to someone’s sweet fur baby. Let’s go get a pup cup together! 💕🐾🐾 I’m working very part time so this is perfect for me. I spend most of my time at home or out on a walk and would love to help out pet lovers with their busy schedules while mine is rather free. Hanging with a furry friend would be just as beneficial for me while I’m home needing company just as much as them. I am only busy Tuesday evening to Thursday evening so Thursday night to Tuesday afternoon I am free and open for bookings! Me and my cat Charlie are ready to provide a safe space to hangout. For dogs, I love right next to parks and have plenty of walking areas right around my home. I will ask many questions and follow your exact pets needs in my home as well as yours. If you book an overnight you can rest easy knowing I will be there all night. Your animal is safe with me!

About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

About: As a passionate and experienced pet sitter, I bring a unique blend of reliability, empathy, and expertise to every pet I care for. I understand that your pet is a beloved member of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention as I would my own. With a strong background in pet care, from managing feeding schedules to providing mental and physical stimulation, I ensure each pet’s needs are fully met. My flexible approach allows me to adapt to different temperaments and requirements, whether for a high-energy pup, a shy cat, or a pet needing special care. Choosing me means peace of mind for you and a safe, joyful experience for your pet—because their happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, thoughtfully woven into each part of my day to ensure that every pet I look after receives the attention and care they deserve. My mornings begin with feedings, refreshing water bowls, and a bit of playtime to start each pet’s day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I check in regularly to ensure their needs are met, adjusting my schedule for specific care requirements like medication, exercise, or one-on-one attention. Evening routines often include another feeding, a final check-in, and a cozy wind-down to help them feel safe and secure before bedtime. This routine isn’t just about tasks; it’s about creating a steady rhythm that pets find comforting, reinforcing a bond of trust and familiarity with each pet in my care. When caring for pets in my home or while pet sitting in another person’s home, I prioritize creating a familiar, comforting environment tailored to each animal’s needs. At home, I maintain a designated pet-friendly area stocked with essentials like food, toys, and a cozy rest space, ensuring pets feel secure and relaxed. In a client's home, I adhere to the pet’s established routines and preferences, whether it’s feeding schedules, walking times, or play habits, to minimize stress and maintain consistency. I’m vigilant about safety, cleanliness, and any specific care instructions provided by the pet’s owner, adapting to each pet’s unique personality—whether that means extra play for an energetic pup or gentle companionship for a shy cat. This approach allows pets to feel loved and cared for in a setting that feels just like home, whether it’s mine or theirs.

About: I’ve cared for friends’ cats and dogs since I graduated high school, but I started gathering more clients in college and during my masters in order to earn supplemental income I’m available every afternoon after 330pm, and possibly sooner with early notice. On weekends I am available all day, and can travel anywhere in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens I don’t have either of my cats with my here in New York. Back at my home in New Orleans, I have an entirely fenced backyard so I can let my cats play as long as they want every day. Sometimes up to 3 hours a day. They are harness trained as well, so we go on walks 3-4 times a week. I enjoy taking both cats and dogs on walks

This site has been hit or miss with sitters. Eryn knocked it out of the park. She was hands down the most communicative and kindest sitter we have booked to date. Our dog is elderly and rather needy. Eryn was amazing with him. I can't recommend her enough. We will definitely be booking her again.
