About: Dogs have been at the heart of my life for over 20 years. I’ve shared my home with a full pack of beloved pups—from spirited beagles to gentle seniors—and cared for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs of all ages and temperaments. I understand the joy (and the responsibility) of keeping a dog happy, healthy, and loved while their people are away I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of experience caring for pups of all ages, from playful youngsters to gentle seniors. I work from home, so visiting dogs get constant love, walks, and snuggles in a calm, dog‑friendly environment. And … I have the flexibility to come to your dog, if staying at home is more comfortable for your pup! I follow your rules for consistency for the dog. My home has a fenced yard and I’m happy to visit parks or go on walks.


About: I have an incredible love for animals. I even learn their temperament to better understand them. I'm the type of person to get down on all fours to connect and play with your pet. I'm sure we'll have a strong bond before the visit is over. I love taking them for walks because I love to exercise and they love it too! I work from home so I have a bunch of spare time and love to give. My attention will be on your pet 90% of the time if they're with me, even if I have multiple pets. I can even teach your dog some new tricks. You ever heard that saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" well that's not true when it comes to me. I create such a bond through trust that we basically start speaking the same language. Hope to meet you and your lovely pretty soon! I’m currently working from home, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be present and attentive to your dog throughout the day. Whether it’s overnight boarding or daycare, your dog will receive plenty of outdoor time, interaction, and care. I take them outside for exercise every 2-3 hours, and in between, they can relax in their crates provided by you. I’m also available for drop-ins and dog walks, making sure your pets at home are well taken care of, fed, and exercised. No matter the time of day, I’m here for your pets! When your dog stays with me, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large yard where they can play and get plenty of exercise under my close supervision. For overnight stays, the dogs will stay in the crates you provide, which I make sure are covered with blankets and kept warm with space heaters when needed to ensure they’re comfortable no matter the weather. I also keep a close eye on dogs that may not socialize well with others to make sure everyone feels safe and happy. At your home, I make sure your pets are well-fed, exercised, and comfortable, providing the same level of care and attention as I would with my own.

About: I have taken care of dog cats and animals ever since I can remember. As a child, a teenager and college student, I had a monopoly on taking care of my Neighbor’s pets. I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior dogs, multiple animals and even birds. I prioritize Service and Care and don’t like to keep you guessing. I value communication while you are away from your pets. I currently do freelance contract work, sometimes from home, and sometimes from other locations around New Orleans. I have a flexible schedule with periods of time to easily step away and spend time with your dog or cat! I have three cats and a sizeable fenced in yard. Your pet’s health, safety and comfort is the highest priority to me. I can’t wait to meet them!


About: Your dog will be in a safe environment where they are free to roam around and will receive lots and lots of cuddles, attention, and playtime on the walks we take. I have a flexible and an open availability. I have pet care experience of watching dogs. I bathed, fed, walked, and played with the dog and I will give the same love and affection to your pet as well. Dogs tend to get comfortable around me easily and almost instantly, at rare times if the dog seems shy towards me, I would simply slowly approach him/her and allow him/her to sniff and become comfortable before you would let him/her in. If your dog does not seem comfortable then you can request for a refund. As a dedicated stay-at-home mom to my wonderful one-year-old daughter and a proud pet parent to two dogs, I have a deep love and understanding of animals. With hands-on experience caring for dogs in a loving home environment, I ensure that every pet I watch receives the same level of care and attention as my own. Please note that my daughter will accompany me during pet-sitting visits, allowing me to provide responsible and attentive care while ensuring a safe and comfortable experience for your furry family members. n my home, I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. With two dogs of my own, I ensure all pets feel comfortable and part of the family. I follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, and offer supervised playtime to keep them happy and engaged.

About: With over 26 years of hands-on dog care experience, I bring a deep understanding of dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra TLC, I’ve done it all—including working with rescue and shelter dogs who need patience, trust, and gentle guidance. I offer more than just pet sitting—I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where your dog feels at home. I’m attentive to behavior cues, medication schedules, and special dietary needs, and I always prioritize your dog’s comfort and well-being. My long-term experience allows me to quickly recognize signs of stress or illness and respond appropriately. Whether your dog needs active playtime, structured walks, help with training, or just a warm lap and quiet companionship, I tailor my care to fit their unique personality and needs. I also provide training. Dog sitting fits into my schedule because I work remotely in insurance so I’m always home working on my computer and going to the park to go running. I have a fairly big sized house with a very nice sized yard for dogs to run around and play. It is gated all around

About: I have volunteer experience for 3 years at my aunts vet . I would walk, groom, feed, and play with the dogs. The job was amazing, no dog left unhappy! I am home from college for the summer. However I do work from 4-9 most days at Baskin robins. Only 5 hours out the day I would be working which is not long at all. The pets will always be well taken care of with the help of my family while I am working. I care for all the pets the same. Each pet will get the best treatment. I treat as if their my own. Especially special needed dogs. If there are instructions on what a pet needs or can not have, it will be followed through and taking seriously. I go by the owners schedule.

About: I’ve taken care of my cat and neighborhood cats. I love watching and playing with cats as much as possible. They’re my favorite kind of furry friends I’m available to sit whenever you need me. I currently work part time from home so can be at your cat’s service whenever they need me I have a fenced yard and safe home where your cat won’t face any potential dangers or harm. I will also keep a close eye on them

About: Hello! I've shadowed and worked at an Animal Hospital, where I cared for boarded animals, maintained a clean and organized environment, administered medications, and monitored sick pets. Before her passing, my dog Mia was in my care for 15 wonderful years. During her final years, I managed her diabetes by administering insulin and closely monitoring her health to ensure she was as comfortable as possible. In addition to having my own pets and hands-on experience at the animal hospital, I dog and cat sit for my family during the summer or when they're out of town and need someone they trust to care for their beloved furry companions. Since it's summer and I’m currently out of school until the fall, I’m looking for a part-time job to stay active during the week. I have experience working with both dogs and cats and would love the opportunity to care for them. After all, who doesn’t enjoy spending time with dogs and cats? They’re the absolute cutest! My utmost priority is making sure that dogs and cats are comfortable, safe, and happy. I had a sensitive, velcro-dog whom I adored deeply, so I’ve learned to be especially attentive and gentle. Because I take such care with my own pets, I’m often even more alert and cautious when caring for pets that aren’t mine. When watching over pets, either my own or those of friends and family, I make sure that safety gates (such as “baby-proof” locks) are working properly to prevent pets from entering or leaving certain areas. I can crate or kennel dogs and cats when needed, or separate them into different rooms if that’s what’s best for their comfort or safety. If a dog or cat wants to go outside, I always make sure to use a leash and harness to ensure they stay secure. I also check that water bowls are full at all times and follow all instructions from pet owners carefully such as specific feeding times, portion sizes, and any special care needs.
