“Mike was an absolute A++++ sitter! My pup had a great time especially all the playtime with his daschunds! Mike sent lots of videos and pictures and I can tell my Napoleon was well taken care of and loved!”
“Iryna took great care of my mother-in-law's dog while we were in town and needed last minute boarding after our other Rover needed to cancel their booking on short notice. She was very communicative and caring. I would highly recommend Iryna!”
“This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Michael was awesome! He gave my Bella the best care. He also communicated with me to make sure she stayed on schedule. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I definitely recommend and plan to book again!”
“Natasha was great! Easy and fast communication, lots of pictures of a happy dog when we were out of town. When our flights got delayed coming home, she was able to watch our dog for an unexpected additional half day, no problem. Would definitely recommend booking with Natasha as a dog sitter!”
“Cheryn was great with Missy. Missy had some separation anxiety as well as a little bit of fear of another dog but Cheryn handled it all incredibly well and we knew Missy was in good hands as always!”
“Jon took amazing care of my dog! Sent videos and picture updates. Gave me a tour of his house and yard so I knew my dog would be comfortable. Can’t recommend Jon enough”
“Ellen is always awesome with our puppies. My little Yorkshire jumps to her arms every time he sees her and this is for me a great confirmation of how well treated they are.”
“Blair took such a good care of my Leo Coco. She sent me updates with photos without even asking. She responded to me every time I texted as soon as I texted, even at 12am at night. I forgot to bring Leo Cocos bed, so she gave them nice cozy blanket to sleep in. She also kept them for on extra day with last minute adjustment request. Overall we are very pleased with her service. Thanks Blair for going above and beyond to take care of my babies.”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”
“Elena and her little dog Paco were very welcoming. We booked last minute while we were in town visiting New Orleans for the weekend. She sent pictures and updated us throughout the duration of his stay. I would definitely recommend”
“Leaving Bentley with Kate and Conor felt like having a friend take care of him! Bentley was immediately comfortable with them. Kate was attentive to all of Bentley’s care needs. Bentley wasn’t even that excited to see me when I picked him up, which always tells me when he feels right at home with his sitter. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Taz and provided lots of updates. I could tell in the pictures that Taz was so happy and it was a relief that he was in good hands. Thank you Natalie, you’re a life saver!”
“Regina is the best sitter I’ve ever had! She’s reliable, thoughtful, and truly caring. My dog can be skittish and difficult, but Regina was able to win her trust—and that means everything to me.”
“Rachel and Michael were wonderful! They took care of Missy over the holidays and clearly gave her a lot of love! They send sweet pictures and or videos daily. They were extremely responsive and reliable. They set up Missy for success by scheduling a meet and greet for our pups before the boarding period. They were also super flexible. My flight back to the city was canceled and I last minute needed an extra day of care for Missy and they accommodated this last minute change which was very kind. Overall, I felt relaxed and reassured in my travels knowing Missy was being cared for by Rachel and Michael!”
“Christina was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond taking care of Noodles and treated him like he was her own. She took him on multiple outings and adventures, sent us tons of photos and updates, and made it so easy to relax knowing he was in such loving hands. It was very clear from the photos—and from how happy he was—that Noodles was having an absolute blast. Beyond being an amazing dog sitter, Christina is just a genuinely delightful, kind human. We would trust her with Noodles again in a heartbeat. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

THE BEST! Shannon is a wonderful, warm, kind, dog-whispering gem! Our very first booking request was for Shannon to care for my senior Goldendoodle for two weeks while I traveled abroad. After our first meeting, I was confident Dixie would be in great hands. Not only did Shannon administer Dixie’s medications and look out for mobility issues, but Shannon also made her feel extra comfy, cozy, and loved in her own home. Lots of photos and sweet updates gave me extra peace of mind, so I could enjoy my trip without worry. Dixie thrived in Shannon’s care! We couldn’t be happier to have met her. :)

As an anxious dog mom who has a dog with a lot of quirks, I would Cree was great with providing me updates, pictures, thorough information about what was going on and really eased any of the anxiety that I probably would’ve had with other sitters. Definitely will be using again, I was really able to be at peace of mind during my much needed night off.

Thank you so much for have patience with our girl! She didn’t have a good first boarding experience and since then we’ve been lucky enough to have friends/family wanting to keep her. So when we went on a family trip we had no clue what to do 😂 the updates were helpful and helped me relax that she was in good hands.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
93% of sitters in New Orleans can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Orleans home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your New Orleans.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your New Orleans sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in LA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
