About: Growing up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, I have a wide array of pet care experience for animal friends large and small. Frequent dogwalker and pet-sitter with extensive knowledge of care practices. I am a remote worker and student in my day-to-day life, so I can frequently care for pets in my off-time in between classes and while working at home. I will be open in my communication about any issues or special needs that pets will need and trust that clients will communicate any special needs to me.


“Cheryl was great. Gave us more than we expected, especially with getting our dogs away from the house for a few hours so our realtor could show it. She even cleaned areas of our house before the showing and before she left. Thank you so much Cheryl.”

“Ryan was a rockstar sitter. It was my first time using Rover to find someone to watch our house and 3 dogs. Ryan was available on very short notice and went with the flow when we asked him to administer medication to one of our pups at the last minute. The dogs loved him from the get go and we could tell in all the pictures that Ryan sent how at ease they were with him. We will definitely be calling him in the future. Thank you so much, Ryan!”


About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

We received lots of pictures of our fur babies, and she checked in often, putting our minds at ease. We came home to very happy animals and our home was cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be asking Emily to pet sit again!”


About: I've spent my whole life around animals—especially dogs, cats, bunnies, and hamsters. Whether it's a playful puppy or a senior cat, I’ve cared for them with love and attention. Being with animals comes naturally to me, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I work at a business in the French quarter and my schedule is flexible. I can take a long lunch in order to check on pets. I follow all instructions and act as if I'm being watched by the owner in the moment. I was a residential housecleaner for over a decade and appreciated supervision.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs and cats) for nearly my entire life! I have a genuine love for all animals and am very attentive & patient. I currently have 3 cats with 3 entirely different personalities, a sweet senior dog, and a fiesty little hamster. Tell me your needs & they shall be met! I work part-time and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I will work with your requests and be very upfront about expectations before the scheduled visits. I am offering to come to the pet’s home and provide care for them there. Before you’re away, we will schedule a meet up to go over everything. I’m happy to spend as much or as little time with your pets as you desire!

“I can’t recommend Jared enough! They took care of my cat for a whole month, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. From daily updates and adorable photos to thoughtful little details that showed how much they truly cared, Jared went above and beyond.

Michelle G.
“Michelle has been my go to dog sitter for years. She is dependable and really cares about my pets. She spends quality time with them and gives them the same attention I would. My dogs both had medications and she followed there medical regiment to a T. I wouldn’t event think of having anyone else watch my two dogs. I should note, that my boys are a handful. 2 large pitbulls, big needy babies demanding a lot of attention. And also not the most well behaved but she handled them without any problem. 10 out of 10! Highly recommend!”

She has a natural warmth that animals seem to sense, and they’re always comfortable and at ease around her. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Cameron was extremely communicative and took great care of my dog. He also agreed to pet sit at the last minute. Would highly recommend!

I look forward to working with you again! Thank you!

Leslie was great with my two dogs. She even ran back over last minute to feed and let them out when our flight was delayed! She took great care of my house-- which was much appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Caitlin was the best! She won over our shy rescue pup. Caitlin sent regular updates and communicated if there were any questions.

Victoria always takes the absolute best care of our cat, Pixie, and the house! She communicates great, sends lots of cat photos, and I can rest assured knowing Pixie is in the best hands while we’re away.

Lindsay rocks! Couldn’t recommend more highly- trust that she will keep your pet safe and happy & provides great communication!

Sarah was amazing! She housesat with my pup and my cat while I was out of town and I knew they were in such good hands the whole time! My pup can be nervous when first meeting new people and Sarah was so patient and sweet letting Remy warm to her in her own time showing before showing off her sassy silly self. My cat Sherlock has diabetes and Sarah did an excellent job giving him his insulin. She was super communicative throughout the stay and sent pictures of my little guys.

Absolutely thrilled with David as our dog sitter! He went above and beyond in every way- accommodating two back-to-back, last-minute requests without hesitation. From the start, he was professional, respectful of our home, and left everything spotless. Our pup was in the best hands- he sent daily photo updates, took her on regular walks, and made sure she felt loved and cared for while we were away. David is trustworthy, reliable, and truly a perfect house guest. We would 100% book him again and recommend him to all our family and friends without hesitation!

I cannot recommend Joel highly enough! He took care of my cat, Diego, for 10 days, and his dedication was truly exceptional. Unlike many sitters who may just stop by for feeding, Joel was consistently present in our home, providing Diego with the love and affection he craves. He spent quality time with Diego, playing, cuddling, and ensuring he felt comfortable and happy while I was away. It was clear that he genuinely cares for animals, and I returned to a very content and relaxed kitty. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, Joel is the perfect choice. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Diego!

Alyssa was perfect for Daisy. She brought her chiweenie Oliver with her and Daisy loved it. Alyssa was thorough and communicative the entire time we were gone. She is a natural pet sitter. We will definitely call upon her again for upcoming trips.

Chloe was wonderful. She took great care of our girl and kept us updated throughout. We would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone!

Molly took care of our pups and house over a weekend, and was extra accommodating and flexible when we needed to extend for a few extra days. She kept us up to date with photos and adventures, we highly recommend and would happily have Molly house and dog sit for us again.
