“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!”
“Cheryn was wonderful! So kind, attentive, and caring. She sent lots of pics of my pup and regular updates. My pup loved staying with her, and I felt comforted knowing she was in good hands and having fun!”
“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!!”
“Serena was incredible. She was very responsive, flexible to some of my last minute schedule changes, and really sweet with my dogs. I have zero complaints and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Natalie was amazing! We booked with her to board our dog for a weekend while we’re were in town visiting. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay which we really appreciated! She took great care of our dog and we’re so thankful :)”
“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!”
“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.”
“Aja was very loving and attentive to my senior rat terrier, Macey. Macey is a very nervous dog and is pretty timid in her old age. I was looking for someone to care for her where she would feel comfortable and at ease. Macey seemed calm when I went to get her after her one-night stay with Aja, her first Rover experience. Aja kept me well informed of how she was doing during her stay and provided me with pics of her. She seemed to be pretty calm when I picked her up, which made me feel good about her experience. I am grateful to Aja for her welcoming personality and her loving demeanor towards her guests and will be using her again for a longer stay soon!”
“Rachel and Mike have taken great care of Leo and Ellie both times they’ve had them! We’re so happy we’ve found someone who we know they’re in good in hands with!”
“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”
“Elena & Paco were amazing hosts for my small dog, I got photo updates and I know he was well cared for and loved the whole time. Thank you for making his stay in NOLA feel like home, you can tell there’s a lot of love in this home. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I've walked dogs in Dallas, Tx for three years. I've been taking care of my own dog since moving here to New Orleans. Love all kinds of dogs. I'm recently retired and looking for some extra income. I love all kinds of dogs big or small and their individual personalities. I'm also a long time cat owner and love them as well. I would like to offer my service to stay at your home with your pet. I will feed, adminster medicine, walk, and groom your pet.
“Blair was fantastic. She was extremely responsive and very easy to schedule pick up/drop off. She has a pup of her own that got along great with my dog. I will definitely be booking her again.”
“I was away for two weeks, which is the longest my dog, Max, and I have ever been apart. Leaving him with Roxanne and her family was the best decision ever. He was definitely well cared for, and the next time I travel, I hope they will take Max again. I highly recommend Roxanne. I know how important it is to be able to trust your dog sitter and I absolutely trust Roxanne and her family.”
“This guy was great very open and communicative and also gives advice. Great sitter will be returning. My puppy was also so happy and playful when I came to pick him up that made me feel good.”
“Christine made my baby’s first sitting experience so easy! She was very attentive to his specific needs and kept me informed throughout the entire visit. I met with her before the planned visit to ensure my baby would be a good fit for her and her family (very important). I definitely will rebook another visit with her!”
“Our boarding with Etta was perfect. Great communication, lots of updates, and she took really good care of our dog Baron. We highly recommend her services. Best pet sitter in the New Orleans area! We will definitely be boarding with Etta again.”
New Orleans dog parents share their Rover experiences
I was skeptical about leaving Sif with anyone. She’s a puppy and has only been around myself, my husband or family. Ms. Etta made me feel comfortable enough to “loosen the leash” and after meeting her I felt that Sif would be ok. Long story short, she absolutely was! Ms. Etta sent a few pictures and a lot of messages, which I was happy for. She also even did some artwork with Sid and now I have a wonderful little painting from her. Ms. Etta is really clever with activities and she’s also compassionate. She does not allow the dogs to mix and mingle if they seem skiddish, which Sif generally is. I really do appreciate Ms. Etta for keeping our girl and will most certainly be booking her again.
Brittany was yet again magnificent - and that was no short feat given my dog’s needs this trip. My senior dog has had some aging health issues lately that flared up in a never before seen way during this sitting session. Brittany kept me totally in the loop, dealt with the insanity with deep care, and problem solved to get to a place where my pup was able to be so incredibly comfortable for the majority. A million thanks wouldn’t be enough.
Ellie was the absolute best. She was so incredibly patient and extra loving with our anxious pup. Also, she went above and beyond when she found a couple of fleas on her--- she took action and communicated with us the whole time about the game plan. We were so, so appreciative. She also sent pictures and updates, which made us feel at ease. Ellie is a true gem and clearly has a genuine love for dogs :)
Caroline is the best! Her intake meet and greet was so thorough and made me feel very comfortable in her attention to details about my pups, preferences routine and needs. Not to mention, he absolutely adores her! The pics were flowing the whole time and when I ran into some travel delays on the way home she was able to keep him an extra night and give me peace of mind that my little baby was happy, healthy, and in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking!!
Aoife had a great time staying with Rachel and Matthew. They were prompt with the communication providing pupdates over the weekend. They took a great care of our doggy, and all of her belongings also came back in excellent shape (which is not always the case with boarding). We will definitely use boarding with Rachel again, thank you!
Regina is a true dog lover. She treated and cared for our girl as if she were her own. She took excellent care of our dog and was accommodating of her quirks and routine. She was very communicative with updates and photos, and made sure to ask any questions that came up.
Blair was amazing! This was my first time booking a sitter in New Orleans and she was able to take me last minute. I felt very comfortable and she sent me updates and I could see Sno had a great time with her and was well taken care of. Will be using her in the future for all my future sitter needs. 😃
