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!

Deisha provided in home pet sitting for us while we were away on our family vacation. She provided excellent care for our fur babies and was extremely responsive even with us having limited cell and internet service while away! She sent updates and pics everytime we were able to connect with her while away. She did a great job of keeping up with our home as well! Highly recommend and will definitely be using her services again!

From the moment Kate walked in the door, our highly anxious job was in love. Kate arrived early to help her get acclimated and learn her routines. When we returned, she greeted us, then went right back to Kate. Highly professional, knowledgeable pet sitter loved by our sr girl. We will pawsitively request Kate again!

About: I have about 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I follow care instructions closely, prioritize safety and routine, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages. Hi! I’m Marissa, a responsible and caring animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and love making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take pride in following care instructions closely. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My fiancé and I have an almost 2-year-old Aussie, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, playtime, and providing a safe, loving environment for pets in our home. I work part-time and attend school at LSUE a few hours two days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule for morning, afternoon, and evening care. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets in a clean and secure environment, and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always properly secured. I respect routines and communicate immediately if anything seems off. I treat every pet and home as if they were my own.

About: I have a lot of time on my hands so taking care of your precious fur child would be of an utmost priority. I know what it's like to not have enough time for your pets and I know you want your dog/cat to be under the best of care. With that said, I've owned animals since I was 4-years-old specifically rats. I currently have 5 cats. 3 are domestic blackies and a pair of twin girls. As a teenager, I had a dog walking/sitting business and since I lived in an apartment building most of my clients were apartment dwellers. I had a few clients that were older dogs so I had to readjust my typical plans. And although each dog is different, they should all be cherished and appreciated. I honestly don't know what my life would be like without dogs and my cats in my life. My schedule is fully open. I freelance so booking somewhat last minute will easily be acceptable. I also only take one client at a time for overnight boarding. At your own home, I would respect your fur babies normal schedule and they would be as safe as possible. I don't have the space to comfortably board at my home and I want to ensure no issues occur while your pets are in my care.

About: I have helped take care of animals for as long as I can remember. We've always had a family dog that I would help feed and walk. Once moving out on my own I got a rescue dog who is also my service dog. Since getting married to my husband we've added two Bassett hounds to our family. When visiting my parents ranch I help feed the horses, chickens, dogs and even cows. I'm an animal lover. 😁 I am a full time stay at home mom. I typically get up and start my day around 8:30/9am. Making it to walk your fur babies on time will not be an issue unless I have other commitments, but I will inform you of them if and when necessary! Watching your 4 legged friend at your house they will be be able to go about their regular day! They will get frequent potty breaks, tug of war and all the snuggles and pets! At this time I cannot take any dogs at my house over night due to renting restrictions, but they are welcome for play dates! I have three other dogs who LOVE to play. I do not have a fenced yard BUT they will be walked frequently, typically about ever 1 1/2 to 2 hours

About: I build relationships with the pets and owners. I pay attention to the small details, like routines, quirks, treat time, and belly rubs. I try my best to make all pets feel special and comfortable while their owners are away My schedule can vary week to week since my work isn’t always consistent, but I’d be happy to check in with you about your dates and see if it’s something I can commit to Since I have two dogs of my own, I usually offer pet care at the owner’s home. It tends to be less stressful for your pet and keeps things simpler on my end too

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to calm seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and flexible to each pet’s unique needs.

Jami truly cares about your pet. I felt very comfortable leaving our big baby boy with her. She kept us updated with texts and photos throughout the week we were away. I love the fact that she’s knowledgeable because she used to work at a vet office. She is very sweet and calm and it’s obvious she loves animals. I will definitely be using her again!

About: I have a rescue pup named Maui ❤️ We got her from a family because they couldn’t take care of her when she was 3 months old. I loveeeee animals and they will be in the best care when they are with me!! We will go for walks and play together the whole time! There is also a dog park down the street we can go to and let out some energy. Toys can be provided if necessary. If you would like for your pup to stay the night with me they will have Maui to play with and get tons of lovins so if they like to cuddle that’s a plus!!!!! Prefer text because I can’t always answer my phone. But call/text option available. I have no problem picking up and dropping off your babies! We have plenty of time to play and love on your fur babies. Someone will always be with them when they are staying at the Duhon residence. We have 5 dogs who will play and keep your pup entertained. I have 5 friendly fur babies to keep your pet company. We take LOTS of naps 💤 and play hard 🦴 If your pet is more comfortable being in a crate, I am able to accommodate that as well.
