“Chloe is wonderful! So kind and communicative. This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but she totally put me at ease. She agreed to a meet and greet beforehand and was so patient with my puppy. She also sent thoughtful updates with plenty of pictures and was respectful to my living space. Highly recommend, thanks, Chloe!”
“Super pleased with Dani and her efforts to stay in touch with updates and photos. Even with a storm she still kept me updated with schedule changes. She also took care of my plants while I was away. Dani is super sweet and I have nothing but great things to say. Would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy help at home with your pets (or plants!) I will be reconnecting with her in the future for any care I may need in the future with Pep!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. Also, I prefer dogs but I have a couple years of experience helping out with my sister’s cats. I currently work remotely. So, I can be wherever you need me on any given day or time. I don’t normally work on weekends. I live with my girlfriend and her Boston Terrier ‘Haley’. She has a fenced in backyard to run around in and gets to chase around the ball a lot.
About: I have 7 years of paid pet care behind me, and have experience with numerous type of pets. I have a resume and references upon request. I am available for any services needed, and am flexible with time and location. I have grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and care for each one I meet and am able to take care of. I am super reliable, and will always try to find a time that works for both of us. I am extremely flexible, and can put aside as much time as needed to take care of your animals! I have grown up caring for my own animals, and know how much time and dedication they are. Their safety, health, and happiness are key to me and I am happy to do accommodate however to ensure it.
About: I would be a great pet sitter because I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for dogs. I regularly volunteer at my local animal shelter on the weekends, where I help care for and support dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have also had my own dog, Twix, a Boston Terrier, for the past five years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily care, including feeding, walking, bathing, and providing attention and comfort. I am very comfortable handling all aspects of dog care and making sure pets feel safe and loved. As a college student, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate different needs and routines. I am responsible, dependable, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Being able to care for your pet would also mean a lot to me, as I miss my own dog back home. Overall, I am committed to providing reliable, caring, and high-quality care for every pet I look after. Although I am a full time college student, I have very flexible hours and I am able to walk and sit dogs with little notice. I am okay with early morning walks and I have my own transportation as well! Keeping a pet calm, comfortable, and clean are my top priorities as a pet owner and caretaker! I am not afraid to clean up after pets and give them baths and since I have my own transportation, walks around parks and other local and safe neighborhoods are also services I can provide.
About: Hello, my name is Maya and I would be happy to help you with any pet needs you may have. I’ve pet sat in a wide range of settings as well as looked after many different breeds. I enjoy spending time with animals and being out in nature and I consider this arrangement to be less work and more fun. That being said, I understand the responsibility it takes to look after someone else’s pet and take great care in keeping you pets safe and happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I’m a self employed creative and have a very flexible schedule. I do work many side jobs so it is best to let me know a couple days to a week ahead of time. I cannot provide home services at this time unfortunately. My landlord won’t permit pets at my place. I would happily dog or cat sit at your home.
“Kailey did a great job taking care of my cat and making sure her space was tidy while I was away. She sat with her and read to keep her company. I would recommend her services”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was almost old enough to walk. I majored in Biology at Loyola and also work with a local animal rescue! I’ve always had animals in the house, and have three cats. I help bathe, feed, and walk my parent’s dogs almost every day when I go visit them. During the summer, I take them to the dog park and they absolutely love it. I am a local teacher at an elementary school! I am available every single day, mostly afternoons and nights. During the school day is the only time I’m unavailable! I love playing with dogs and making sure they feel well loved. Crate training and potty training are specialties of mine! I love to go on long walks too.
About: My family rescued our first dog, April from the local dive bar when I was six years old. According to the vet, April was just two weeks. She had been separated from her mother at birth and hadn’t even opened her eyes yet. My parents worried she'd be too much trouble. I begged to keep her and promised I'd take care of her. April became my sister, my best friend, and my greatest teacher. I fed April from a bottle, taught her how to walk up the stairs, and took her to puppy training classes. April taught me the practice of presence, and the value of unconditional love. Our time spent together makes up some of my most cherished childhood memories. At the age of 13, pet-sitting became my first job. I loved it so much, I didn’t even understand how it could be considered a job. I took care of the animals, and the animals took care of me. In my decade+ of pet-sitting, I’ve worked with a range of breeds, ages, and temperaments. Walking 100lb. pitbulls with fear aggression. Administering medication to seniors. Feeding finicky rescued stray cats. I even fostered and re-homed an abandoned puppy that found me on the beaches of Costa Rica. I can confidently claim that I’ve never once had an animal “reject” me as their caretaker, and I think that says a lot. In the last 6 years, I’ve been living and traveling as a digital nomad. My lifestyle doesn’t currently allow for a pet of my own, so pet-sitting is a blessing that allows me the opportunity to care for pets as if they were my own. I work part-time as a meditation & yoga teacher, and part-time remote as an event organizer. This lifestyle allows me to be very flexible in taking on pet-sitting and house-sitting opportunities. I can build most of my work day around your pets schedule (and I'm more than happy to do so!) I offer long-term and short-term visits and overnight stays to take care of your pets in their own home. I've found that, for most pets, being in the security and routine of their own environment is the best way for them to cope with their owners temporary absence. I make sure to upkeep your pet's sense of "normalcy" to the best of my ability by feeding and walking them at regular intervals, being an active participant in play time (when desired), giving them snuggles (when desired), and just keeping them company! I make sure to upkeep YOUR sense of "normalcy" by respecting your space, keeping it as clean and organized as when I arrive (if not even more so), and following any & all house rules. In addition to overnights, I LOVE to take on daily walks and wellness checks when you're at work or just too busy to do it all on your own!
About: I love dogs and love caring for them. I am fun and energetic. I could spend hours playing with dogs. If yuh need someone that is reliable and that you can depend on them to take care of your beloved just as you would, I’m your girl! I can handle any breed at any size. I treat animals with love and respect. I have had some experience of taking care of people animals while they were gone for vacation or just out of town. I have three animals of my own and know how to keep them in control. If there are things you would like to me teach your dog I can do my best to help you train your dog. Please contact me soon. I currently work full time so I am available after 3 pm on the weekdays. I can check on your beloved pet during my lunch break. I have full availability on the weekends. I have a nice fenced backyard and live close to City Park. I enjoy taking walks so your pet will definitely get the exercise they need. If the pet is staying in their home I can ensure that will feel safe and comfortable. I can handle pets with separation anxiety. My calm spirit makes every pet I’ve watched feel safe with me.
About: I have been around all kinds of animals my whole life. Aside from raising and training my own dogs, I helped raise and train service dogs for over three years. These dogs have gone onto incredible careers helping others all over the country! I would love to help you and your furry friend :) I am a recent Tulane graduate! Currently working while I apply to PhD programs. Very flexible with reliable transportation around New Orleans. Located in Irish channel area. I have spent over 10 years caring for animals. In addition to my experience training service dogs, my mother has her own dog walking business which I assist with whenever I am home.
About: I’ve had plenty of experiences with both dogs and cats over the years. From feeding medications, to daily walking, to taking care of my own dog, I’ve always had a genuine heart for animals. I’m currently flexible, I am an ultrasound student at the university, looking for part-time side gigs for furry ones! I can usually make any time work with a 1-2 day notice. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Anything I can do to make your furry friend more comfortable, I can do. Meeting them beforehand is helpful to gain trust
“Taylor is amazing! Tyson my puppy nugget loves her. She is kind, attentive and helped me with everything I asked her to do while with Tyson. Will keep booking with her! Thank you Taylor”
About: I adopted my traveling friend's cat, Zara, for a year and a half before my friend moved back home during lockdown. Zara and I moved a few times in New Orleans, but she adjusted to our home perfectly once we were settled. She snuggled me everyday and was patient with me while I worked in the service industry. I have also cared for ducks, chickens, two older pigs, and a parrot while one of my friends left the city (New Orleans) for her birthday vacation. During this same week, I cared for my disabled friend's blind cat, shrimp tank, goldfish, and two neighborhood cats she tends to. Even though these friends lived on opposite parts of the city, I split my time snuggling with the furry pets and attended to all pets who had medication or special needs. My love for animals has expanded to animals I never thought I'd get to love on! I hope you can welcome me as your pet caretaker while you are away from home. I'm currently working as remote tutor with students from around the world! I'd love to fill my time loving on pets who will enjoy a safe and calm environment while I teach the youth English. I would love to invest full-time into sitting so, I can focus on my private clients as I progress in my new career. I have extensive experience with disabled and abused pets. My care is specialized for all pets, but the ones who need a little extra care have somehow come into my life and never left my heart. What I offer can be healing for your loved furry family and also for me. I enjoy connecting with all animals, but have a deep love for the furry ones if you need a trusted sitter to give them the same love you would!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marrero
Jan was absolutely fantastic. I have a very unique pack of working and primitive breed dogs, and they definitely aren't the easiest group to care for. After just one meet-and-greet, Jan understood their personalities and made both me and my dogs feel completely at ease. What really impressed me was that he confidently took them on walks,...something that very few Rover sitters I've worked with have been comfortable doing. He handled each dog's quirks with patience, confidence, and a calm demeanor that my dogs responded to immediately. It's rare to find someone who truly understands working breeds and dogs with unique personalities, but Jan absolutely does. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him, especially if you have high-energy, independent, or quirky dogs that need someone experienced and confident. I'll definitely be booking with him again.
Lindsey is the person you want to have taking care of your fur babies. My sister little Terriers love her. The photos and drop in information really give you peace of mind. I highly recommend meeting with Lindsey and finding out for yourself how genuine she is. 5 Stars!
Sydney went above and beyond with my girls she is absolutely amazing and an all around beautiful person as well. I didn’t worry once about my girls while I was out of town for the first time ever and she went out of her way to do things that weren’t even required of her. I cannot thank her enough and am I am so lucky I found her !!! BOOK HER ASAP!!!!
We hired Doc for once daily check-in’s for meals and potty breaks while on vacation. Our friends were caring for them, but couldn’t stop in during work hours. Doc was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive with our pups and filled this gap! We have a mom and daughter pair of rescues who have trust issues, but Doc persisted to give them their space when needed and made sure they were comfortable anytime they entered the house. When we needed extra help at the last minute, Doc also did their best to help. Lastly, they always gave thorough updates to keep us informed about each visit. I would absolutely recommend their services for your pet’s needs!

Before booking, confirm:

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Marrero 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.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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.
