“You’re lucky if you can book mike! My dogs were so happy and well cared for after we got back we could tell they were treated like kings! He sent tons of photos, and gave updates daily. Next time we’re out of town we’ll certainly be reaching out to mike!”
“Michael was fantastic with our dog, Franklin. He communicated clearly and it was apparent that he truly enjoyed spending time with Franklin and took great care of him. He watched him during our destination wedding weekend in New Orleans and even went out of his way to bring Franklin to our wedding venue so that we could take wedding day photos with our pup. Would definitely book again. Thank you so much Michael!”
“Sarah was beyond accommodating. My dog is very strong and is aggressive with other dogs. She separated her dog from ours and stayed in the room with him so he wouldn’t get lonely in a new environment. She monitored his food and water intake, and sent us twice daily reports. She set the bar so high we probably will never use another sitter again. We are spoiled just like our dog was. When we tried to leave, he tried to follow her back to her apartment.”
“Elena is the best! We can travel easy knowing that our senior girl is happy and well taken care of. We will always take her to Elena for tender love and care.”
“Christine and her kiddos do an amazing job caring for Sneaux while I’m away! They make sure to send video and picture updates and check in several times a day. My trips are less stressful because I know my baby is being well taken care of!”
“Rachelle was the best pet sitter we could ask for. We left our anxious lab with her during the holidays, a week filled with thunderstorms and fireworks. She was so patient and kind with him, and sent tons of pictures and messages letting us know how he was doing. I loved that she opened her home to him as if he was her own, and had lots of doggy friends for him to play with! I know he felt safe and loved while we were away. We definitely recommend Rachelle for pet boarding in her home and would love for her to watch Reef for us again!”
“Regina is amazing! My dog is very very skittish and usually needs a lot of time to get used to new people. I wonder how Regina could win my dog's trust so quickly! I cannot think of a better sitter than Regina!”
“Joelle absolutely loved Shelby! She didn’t even really run to the car when I went to pick her up - like she was sad to be leaving! My favorite part of this entire encounter is that Joelle left smelling like a fresh dog & not smelly. Let some know Shelby kept her clean & loved on. Would 100% book again. Oh. And I got videos AND pictures every single day. Literally! Thanks Shelby! You’re the best!”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“Michael and Rachel took absolutely wonderful care of my dog Gizmo while I was away! From the moment we met, I could tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. They were attentive, responsible, and incredibly kind — sending me regular updates and photos that made me feel completely at ease. Gizmo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Michael and Rachel to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog sitters!”
“Callie and Indiana had a great time at Randi's house. What I really appreciated were the pictures he sent me everyday. One day he sent videos showing how they were playing with the other pets. They had a great time and I am so glad to find Randi. Communication was easy and fast.”
“Jon took amazing care for Panfila. She came back home with a wagging tail and was very happy to stay with him. Jon is very attentive and really caters to each dog individually. Look forward to leaving her with him in the future.”
“Absolutely amazing pet sitter! They took such great care of my fur baby — super reliable, communicative, and clearly love animals. I got regular updates and photos, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pet. I had total peace of mind the whole time. I would 100% recommend and will definitely be booking again!”
“She is amazing. She responded super fast, took great care of my 2 kitties, and was very nice. When I’m back in New Orleans I’m booking with her again.”
“Iryna took wonderful care of my cat for 3 weeks. :) From the meet and greet, to the day I came back to pick her up, Iryna and her amazing family made sure my cat was comfortable in their home and well taken care of the entire time. Thank you sooo so much!!”
“Tayler went above and beyond! To say she exceeded expectations isn’t enough credit! I had to go out of town on my boy’s birthday and let her know it was his special day. She painted a whole happy birthday little canvas card for him! I wish I could post a picture of it with my review. She was beyond sweet and always sent me pictures of Maui. He looked so happy and enjoyed all her cuddles. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend booking Tayler to take care of your fur babies!”
About: Hi, I’m Britt — a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter. I had my sweet pup Abbie for 10 wonderful years, and since her recent passing, I’ve deeply missed having a dog around. I’m not quite ready to adopt again just yet, but I’d love to share my home and heart with your pup in the meantime. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless friends’ dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I work remotely (as does my partner), so your dog will have constant company, attention, and care. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a spacious yard that’s fully enclosed with double-secured fencing — perfect for safe play and lounging in the sun. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand the extra patience and TLC they may need. Whether your pup is energetic or a couch cuddler, they’ll be treated like family here. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet — I’d love to hear about your dog and how I can help! Right now, I’m freelancing remotely through November — my main job runs from November to June, so I currently have a super flexible schedule and work from home full-time. That means your pup will rarely be left alone and can expect lots of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I’m available for daytime care, overnights, or longer stays depending on your needs! I’m currently in a pet-free home, so your dog will get all the attention without the stress of sharing space with other animals. I live in a cozy New Orleans shotgun-style house that’s easy to section off depending on your dog’s needs — whether they like their own space or prefer to be close by. We also have a double-secured fenced yard that’s great for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. While this profile is just for me, my partner is also home full-time and a calm, animal-loving presence. He’s especially patient with dogs who may be shy or nervous around men. I’m happy to accommodate crate training, medication, or any specific routines to help your pup feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me.
“Evlin was absolutely amazing and exceeded my expectations! She kept such good care of my elderly pup and went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable. She communicated with me daily and assured me that my little old man was happy. I would definitely request her again.”
“Mary was amazing!! She was so easy to contact and she sent pictures and updates about my dog Max that stayed with her. He seemed to have a great time and he got along with her dog as well. Will definitely contact her again! 😊”
“Roxanne and Reese are awesome dog care folks! My puppy is still in the "challenging" phase and they were patient and kind and gave her a lot of fun experiences!! Recommend highly!”

Dex took such great care of my pup while I was away for a little over a week! Dex sent fun pictures and updates that gave me peace of mind, and when my dog developed an ear infection during the stay, Dex let me know right away and was super helpful with treatment. I know Missy was well loved and had a great time in Dex’s care. Couldn’t ask for more—highly recommend! Will absolutely book Dex again!
My dog was so happy at drop off when he saw Mike again! Mike went above and beyond as usual, playing with my pup daily and making sure he felt so loved. I have already booked him for future trips. Thank you so much for always sending plenty of updates/photos!
Rachel and Michael were such great caretakers for my best friend Phil! Communication was really easy, they sent photos every day, and Phil was happy, well fed, and well rested when he came home. In fact, I think he was a little depressed--he loved them and their dogs so much! So happy to have found Rachel and Michael to help take care of Phil when I travel.
Katy was absolutely fabulous with our two pups! So glad she accommodated us at last minute for an 11-day trip. We had daily pics and updates from her which was great! She took them to the dog park daily. They ate very well so I know they were happy. She is so sweet, responsible and trustworthy and clearly displays her love for animals. I highly recommend her as a sitter. I felt 100% comfortable with my pups in her care and I am so glad I found their new ‘home away from home’!
She took great care of our senior dog and his large (110 lbs) brother. Our boys get really stressed and she did such a good job communicating with us about that. Played with them often and kept us updated each day of our trip. Absolutely loved her service, they had their own vacation☺️. We don’t see ourselves booking anyone else.
My girl loves being at Laura’s! She is a caring, responsible, loving sitter. I love getting daily photos and updates. The silver lining when we have to leave our girl behind when we travel is that we know she is in great hands with Laura (and can visit with her friends Bruce and Kida!).
I had a fantastic experience with Oshie! My dog was incredibly well cared for and clearly loved the attention. The Oshie sent tons of updates and pictures, which kept me at ease and made me feel connected while I was away. Highly recommend her caring and attentive service!
