I like to keep my eye on dogs I’ve dogsat before, and I will be in contact if there’s anything unusual going on. I’ve let my dogs roam about the house, but if you prefer to keep them in an enclosed area, please let me know! Taking them for frequent walks or to the park is always nice too!

Information Avishka J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is a special food, diet, or allergy that your dog needs/has. It is important to me, as it was with my previous dogs, to make sure dogs are getting the right nutrition for their health! Also, please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any special needs I should be aware of.

A typical day

I would be happy to walk your dogs in my neighborhood which has a ton of trees and greenery! If your dog isn’t much of a people dog, our neighborhood is fairly quiet. But if you would like your dog to have some dog or people interactions throughout the day, I’d be open to taking them to a nearby dog park. In my backyard, I can play ball with your pup or give him a bath if you request one.

25 yr old med student from LA!

Pet care experience

Since I was 7 years old, my family has loved two golden retrievers in our home in a town of Los Angeles. Rocky, our hyper and enthusiastic 1st one, was with us since I was 5 years old, and Spencer, the 2nd one I took care of, was a sweet senior dog who stayed in my family home until 2022 when he passed. My close friends and neighbors have relied on our family as the designated pet sitters for them because we love and respect dogs so much! We always think of our house as a mini dog-hotel during those times. With these experiences growing up, Rover has become the perfect place for me to help others with caring for their dogs in New Orleans. I am happy to walk/feed/bathe your pets whenever you request it too!

My Shakespeare absolutely loves Vish. I appreciate being able to handle errands knowing my baby is well cared for. Vish communicates well, is very flexible, and makes sure mom and dog feel right at home. Truly grateful for her care!

Avishka was so wonderful with my Shakespeare! She provided clear communication from start to finish. Shakespeare was so relaxed and calm when I picked her up and seemed as if she had a great time! I’m a very nervous Dog Mom and Avishka calmed all of my anxieties. I am really grateful to have found someone so kind, thorough, and flexible. We will definitely be regulars!

Avishka was delightful to work with and took great care of our puppy Archie. She took him on two fed him , and clearly enjoyed spending the day with him.
