“Etta Rachelle was very communicative, friendly and wonderful with my Kit! Absolutely loved getting to take home Kit’s “Art project.” Definitely recommend Etta Rachelle to anyone in the New Orleans area!”


“Our pups loved staying with Roxanne and her husband. She works from home so our boys loved keeping her company. We are traveling by RV and she is only 14 min away from New Orleans RV Resort and Marina. We were able to spend 2 days in the city and knew our pups were being well cared for. Highly recommend.”


“Michael and Rachel took absolutely wonderful care of my dog Gizmo while I was away! From the moment we met, I could tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. They were attentive, responsible, and incredibly kind — sending me regular updates and photos that made me feel completely at ease. Gizmo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Michael and Rachel to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog sitters!”


“Iryna took wonderful care of my cat for 3 weeks. :) From the meet and greet, to the day I came back to pick her up, Iryna and her amazing family made sure my cat was comfortable in their home and well taken care of the entire time. Thank you sooo so much!!”



“Elena and Paco are wonderful! Chico loves them soo much! This is his second time staying with Elena and he loved his stay. I'm very happy I found someone I can trust to care of my dog while I'm out of town! Elena is great and caring! I wouldn't leave my dog with anyone else.”

“Sarah was great! If she is available in the future I will definitely use her. She sent LOTS of photos and videos and I was more than grateful that my pup had a friend to play with in her doggo. I’d forgotten to update D’Arts profile that he was now on medication, and Sarah was super adaptable to this info. I am appreciative!”

This was his first time with Alejandra and she made me feel very reassured that his safety and well being was taken care of and a priority for her. Prince can be a high energy dog and she kept up with his playfulness and energy so well, would definitely look to book with her again anytime I will be away and need a sitter for my boy!”
