Pet care experience

Reliable, retired fur-baby lover!

I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose.

Thanks for taking great care of my puppy girl! I was able to have a great weekend away without worrying if she was ok!

Cindy was great with my large, playful, still a puppy at 12 months, 81 pound golden doodle. We only had him 2 months when vacation made a sitter necessary, so his training is still in progress. He mouths and jumps when excited, which is a large portion of the time. Cindy was great with him. He stayed with her 2 weeks. My daughter came to take him for a walk over the weekend, and he was happy to go back inside Cindy's home. I would recommend Cindy as a pet sitter.

Cindy was amazing with my pup! She has a wonderful backyard, my girl Fynn was so comfortable with her, and sent updates and photos regularly.

Cindy was great with my dog, who needs some attention on him since he’s an escape artist and counter surfer. She’s got a big yard which I am sure he loved roaming around in.

This was my first time using Rover and Cindy really put me at ease. Great updates. And my Yogi was well cared for. Would definitely book again!

Schedule

When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling.

Safety, trust & environment

My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.
