About: I enjoy taking care of dogs as I am unable to have a dog of my own due to work travel. I enjoy taking them for walks and runs if they are up for it! I currently travel for work, but home long for stretches to care for your doggie when needed. When I'm home, I'm available the entire day. I have a big front yard and fenced in backyard with a spacious back patio. Lots of room to play and run. If your dog requires a crate, I have the room for that as well.

About: Hi everyone! My name is Grace! I am 25 years old and I am a Registered Nurse at St Tammany Parish Hospital, where I have worked for the past three years. I have my CPR certification for people as well as knowledge of CPR for animals. I have volunteered at the Northshore Humane Society and have always loved helping my friends and family with their animals. With Rover, my goal is to take care of as many animals as I can via pet sitting and dog walking! My love for animals extends to another level due my family members’ allergies as I grew up, causing me to not be able to have a pet growing up. I would love to show your animals all of my love and care! I work as a nurse at St Tammany Parish Hospital 3-4 days a week, so I am available on a variety of days of the week! I make sure to keep the homes clean and how i left them & make sure the animals are clean when coming inside after having outside time.

About: My first career choice as a child was to be a veterinarian. My life took a different path, but I never lost my love and desire to care for dogs. I am an avid dog lover and defender of our four-legged furry friends. We as humans are responsible for the pets that come into our lives, and it is my goal to help assist you with the care of your furry family member when you need it. I have volunteered at a local dog rescue sanctuary and currently work as a volunteer transporter for Save A Lab Rescue. I am a full time, veteran homeschool mom. On-going long-term set schedules work best for me, however, I am willing to consider flexibility based on my client’s needs. I do not board pets in my home. I also do not do overnight pet sitting in my client's homes. Drop ins and walks are my areas of service.
About: I’ve taken care of and lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently own five cats and one dog. I’m very good with them. I work from home in Covington so I have a very flexible schedule. I work for a radio station in New Orleans as a producer. I can work from anywhere as long as I have my phone and an Internet connection. I will make sure that your pet is safe and well taken care of.… Making sure not to let them get away or come to any harm. And of course having fun!
About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve cared for my families dogs as a child, and my own dogs when I got older with the addition of my daughters dog. I’ve always had a mutual connection with them and cared for them like my own children. I’m all about enriching the lives of pets and their families by providing excellent pet care, peace of mind, trust and security. Nurturing the inseparable bond between a person and their 'furbaby' by enriching their relationship with love. I have a pretty open availability schedule and will try to accommodate your requests to the best of my ability depending on timing and distance. I currently do not have any dogs at my house, so they can enjoy all my attention and playtime. I also have a nice backyard that they can play and run around in. When doing a dog service at the pets home I like to get familiar with them so they can feel comfortable and be their usual sweet selves!
About: Growing up in an animal loving household made a huge impact in who I am today. Ever since I was little i’ve always had a connection with animals, my family even calls me the animal whisperer lol. I have four fur babies of my own, all were rescued from shelters, who I devout most of my free time too. I’m currently a senior in college majoring in Psychology with a minor in criminal justice! I currently have all online classes so I can dedicate all my time to your fur babies and their needs! Im available Monday-Sunday whether that be pet sitting or drop in visits at anytime throughout the day! Listening to your pets needs is a must! Making sure your fur babies have the proper dieting and exercise they require is a huge priority, as long as they’re in my care, I’ll always spoil them and make sure they have everything they need!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Madisonville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Madisonville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Madisonville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
