Doggy Day Care in Lake Shore-Lake Vista, New Orleans, LA

“Emily is absolutely amazing. She is the only person I bring Petey to when I will be out of town and need someone to take care of him or when I need to drop him off for the day! She is really great with all dogs and her animals are super friendly and accepting. She also takes plenty pictures and gives updates via rover and text regularly. She is the only person I trust with my pup!”

About: I have over 40 years of experience caring for pets and grew up surrounded by animals, which taught me how to understand their personalities, body language, and needs. I’m a former entrepreneur from Ukraine, currently living in New Orleans with my daughter and her family. We live in a large home with a separate mother-in-law suite and a huge gated backyard where pets can safely run and play. I’m calm, patient, and very attentive, especially with senior pets and animals who need extra reassurance or consistent routines. I focus on trust, comfort, and genuine care, not rushing visits or treating pets like a checklist. We also have two kind, energetic animal-loving grandchildren (ages 10 & 13) who enjoy playing and cuddling pets. My English is improving, but animals understand love in any language—and Ukrainian or Russian too 😊. I’d be happy to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is now my full-time focus, which means your pets receive my full attention and flexibility. I structure my daily and weekly routine around caring for pets, allowing me to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, and extra check-ins as needed. Because this is my primary commitment, I’m available for consistent routines, last-minute requests, and extended stays, and I can adapt my schedule to what works best for your pet. My home is located in a quiet, private neighborhood and features a large, fully fenced and gated backyard, giving pets plenty of room to safely explore, play, and relax.

“My first time using Rover and I picked the perfect person. I’ve had my dog for 9 years and always been too nervous to let anyone besides family babysit lol. This was a pleasant experience and I genuinely appreciate how simple Rachelle made it. Thanks so much Rachelle ♥️”

“Michelle is a spectacular dog-landlady. She and her husband, Mike, have a large spread of land, and the pups tumble all over each other happily. They were meticulous about giving my pup his meds — and terrific about keeping me updated.”

“Bianca was amazing. She was quick to respond and was so excited to see Oscar. She sent us some pictures of Oscar, exploring the house and being himself which made us feel very good. If we’re ever back in New Orleans, we will reach out again.”

“Oshie treated Miles like family during his visit! We received pictures of him throughout the day and we knew he was in good hands right from the start! Oshie was a lovely and gracious host all around! When we inevitably visit New Orleans again, we will definitely be reaching out again! Thank you so much!”

“Took wonderful care of our boys so we could enjoy our visit to NOLA. He was right in the French quarter so it was very convenient. Thank you so much Michael!”

“It can be hard to find sitters willing to help with challenging dogs, and I have a very sweet pup who, unfortunately, has some separation anxiety that means she can’t be left home alone at this point. Julia agreed to watch her for some daycare while my husband and I attended a family birthday party, and she also was great about setting up a Meet and Greet about a week beforehand so that Sable could be introduced to Julia and her own pups. Julia sent pictures and updates while we were away, and I appreciated her honesty when I asked how Sable did. It seems as though Sable was only mildly embarrassing and didn’t put Julia through too much hassle, so I’m very grateful to have someone trustworthy and kind to leave my pup with! Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage, from puppies to seniors, with a variety of breeds and temperaments. Right now, I have a small breed senior who is still fairly active. I am typically at home, have a flexible schedule, and am available for drop-offs on short notice. Just let me know how I can assist! Your dog will have free range of the living areas, with regular supervised visits to the enclosed backyard, and will be walked at least twice daily or as often as requested.

“Liz was a SUPER sitter for our girls! She had a few other dogs who she was also watching, which made me feel very comfortable - because that indicated others felt she was ALSO a great sitter! We will be re-booking her for tomorrow (Thanksgiving) - and will definitely keep her on our sitter list for when we travel to New Orleans.”

“We can not recommend Lora ENOUGH! Her genuine love of animals was apparent the moment we met her. Our dogs were absolutely spoiled in her care. She provided frequent updates of our dogs and made us feel so at ease. Our dogs were so sad to leave her home! We will be using Lora as our NOLA dogsitter every time we are in town. Thank you Lora! 💕”

About: Hi Hi! I’m Samantha, a lifelong animal lover and proud New Orleans native. I’ve been caring for dogs for over six years, gaining hands-on experience through my brother’s businesses — DogDads and Pup Kulture — where I learned everything from daily walks to structured play, boarding routines, and personalized pet care. Working alongside professionals in the field has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and love with every pup I meet. Whether it’s long walks through the neighborhood, playtime at the park, or calm cuddles at home, I make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. Now that I’m offering my own services here in New Orleans, my goal is to bring that same trusted care and experience to local pet parents. When your dog stays with me, they’re not just getting a sitter — they’re getting family. 🐶💛 I work from home so I will be able to be there every second to love and care for them and ensure safety always . Walks and treats and playtime is a 24/7 service for every fur baby I want them to feel like they are at home here .

“Britt was absolutely fantastic with our babies! Very friendly and communication was great with photo updates from doggy daycare. Highly recommend!”

“Evlin took wonderful care of my Bichon, Chance. He was happy to see us at the end of the day, but he was relaxed with Evlin and her dog Juicy. She checked in with photos and texts, which made me feel better about leaving him. She totally deserves her five-star rating, and I recommend her w/o reservation.”

Gail F.

“Ms. Etta was great with Bronx! She sent updates and even worked on his commands with him. Bronx was exhausted when he came home! Will definitely use her anytime I need someone to watch my baby!”

Amber S.

“Very happy! Will use Ashley again for my next trip to New Orleans! She updated me with pictures and made me feel more comfortable leaving Charlie for the day! Thank you so much!”

About: I've had pets since I was a pre-teen, and recently I've been a rescue foster for dogs & cats for the past 2 years, so I have cared for many animals, many with behavioral issues. I have two rescue pitbulls and two rescue cats of my own. I have been working from home as a nonprofit contractor & artist. Although I do not have a car, I am able to bop around town via bike I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who would love to keep your doggy company. I also have a large crate in a separate front room if they need their own space.

“Rebecca is a wonderful dog sitter! My dog had a great stay at her home and clearly bonded quickly with her and her sweet pup Benny. She is communicative and reliable. If you want great, stress free care for your pup I highly recommend Rebecca!”

About: I've had or taken care of a dog for most of my life. Currently have a very playful/friendly lab/dachshund name Hershey that can't wait to meet your dog. Either me or my wife will be home almost full time to make sure we meet your dogs needs. We can handle up to two dogs each night. We have a dog named Hershey that will play with your dog and keep them entertained. Have a partially fenced yard where your dog can run around supervised. Also have Halo Collars to help keep track of them while outside if you are interested.
