Pet Sitting in Osyka

About: I've always taken in stray dogs or cats growing up , I'm 34, and being with animals is therapeutic for me. I've trained my full grown golden doodle into adult hood although I got busy with dental school and decided it best for her well being to give her to a loving family who would be able to give her more attention because when going through dental hygiene school , I knew before starting I would not be able to give her the full attention that she deserved , me and my son had her for 5 great years and still visit with her and her new family . I am now no longer in dental school although I do work in dentistry and am looking for a part time side hustle , thank you for giving me this opportunity , working with animals is actually I job I enjoy. I do live in Kentwood La - very rural country , I am willing to travel as there is not a lot of business out here thank you for your understanding. I currently work as an expanded dental assistant working Monday - Thursday , the latest I get off is 4:30 and most days earlier than that . I work one Friday out of the month . I can come to you and watch your animals after 4:30 during the week If not earlier than that time , and I'm usually free Friday thru Sundays , I'll work with you and your schedule. I provide attentive and reliable care for pets as if they are my own children. Will keep update with pics/videos. Respect and communication is key.

About: Pet sitting is more than just showing up. It's about making sure your animal feels safe, loved, and at ease even when you're not there. Growing up, animals were always a huge part of my life, from cats and dogs to guinea pigs and turtles. That early experience gave me a huge love for pets of all kinds. Your fur baby will be in caring, attentive hands. You can travel and go about your day knowing your pet is genuinely looked after, not just watched. I recently moved back home to Louisiana from living in Denver, Colorado for the past 5 years. With my schedule being so open and flexible, pet care fits naturally into my day. I am able to give your pet consistent attention, timely walks, and plenty of quality time without it ever feeling rushed. Safety and trust are two things that I will never compromise on. When I'm in a client's home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would give my own. I want both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing their home and their animal are in good hands. I take thorough notes on routines, preferences, and any special needs so nothing gets overlooked. I always make sure the environment stays safe, comfortable, and familiar for your pet.

“He did a great job taking care of my two cats. Very punctual and great at communicating. Went above and beyond for me even sweeping the floor towards the end without my asking. 10/10, would book again.”

“Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!”

“Loralei took good care of my two senior dogs for an extended weekend. She followed the detailed instructions I left and kept me updated after each visit. It was my first-time using a dogsitter who wasn’t a friend or family. So I really appreciated how friendly and patient Loralei was with both me and the dogs. I will definitely reach out to her if I need a dogsitter in the future.”

About: Animals have always been the center of my world, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to care for just about every kind of pet, from bouncy puppies and cuddly kittens to gentle seniors who just need a little extra patience and love. I also have experience with training and even dog showing, which taught me the importance of consistency, communication, and building trust with every animal. More than anything, I believe every pet deserves kindness, attention, and to feel like part of the family, so when they’re with me, that’s exactly what they’ll get. I am currently working part time and have some extra time to offer my services that i haven’t been able to recently. I only work a few hours mid day so i can take on just about any animals! My pets are already a huge part of my daily life from feeding, training, walking, enrichment etc. I can offer personalized care for each pets specific enrichment needs! I have a fenced in yard with safety latches for as much safety as possible. I live in a safe calm neighborhood with amazing neighbors.My whole house is designed around animals. We have a specific dog room and a cat room with safety gates etc to keep pets separate if needed and we have multiple wire kennels. We also have car kennels for safe traveling to any activities your pets would like!

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I have a lot of experience with friends, family, etc..I also volunteer at my local shelter so i’ve taken care of pets in all shapes and sizes! I am a college-student so I’m busy but also have lots of down time! When I am with your pet, they will have undivided attention and anything that fits their needs! I have a fenced yard, and have had pups/ cats of my own! I will provide anything they need and really focus on getting to know your pets personally!

Whether it’s high-energy playtime for active pups, gentle care for seniors, or basic obedience training for puppies, I tailor my approach to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart? Patience, reliability, and a deep understanding of animal behavior, ensuring your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Trust me to treat your pet like family! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I prioritize giving each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening check-ins, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of needs. I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, and extended pet-sitting, ensuring your furry friend receives consistent care and companionship. No matter your schedule, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care that keeps your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I create a secure, comfortable environment where pets feel at ease, following their routine to minimize stress. In my client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring pets receive attentive care, including feeding, exercise, and affection. I’m experienced in handling various pet needs, from administering medications to monitoring behavior for any signs of distress. Whether it’s securing leashes on walks, keeping harmful items out of reach, or providing a calm atmosphere, I always prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets in my care.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with them until I left for college and couldn’t bring them with me. I know how to handle both puppies, with all their energy and training needs, and senior dogs who just need patience and comfort. I’m reliable, I’ll treat your dog like my own, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know they’re happy and cared for. I have a full time job but I’m a college soccer coach so I have a lot of flexibility and places I can bring the pups. I’m basically alyss free I grew up in a super clean and disciplined household where home meant everything. Because of that, I’ve always been big on keeping things neat and taking care of a space like it’s my own. When I’m in someone’s home, I make sure it stays tidy, organized, and safe while I’m also caring for their pets. I know how important it is to come back to a house that feels the same way you left it—if not better. So while the pets get plenty of love, attention, and routine, I’m also looking out for the home itself.

“Gwendolyn was great with our animals, and we have a variety of different animals. She was very reliable and we felt comfortable leaving our boys in her hands. We will definitely use her again.”

I have my own dog, pig and cats I have had animals my whole life. I have a huge yard so plenty of room for them to run and have fun. Live away from the road so they would be perfectly safe. Back yard is fenced in. My son & I love to play outside so they would get plenty of exercise. If I kept them at your house I would of course go by all your rules, care and love your pet as if it were my own. They would be well taken care of. I would just love to care for your pet and give them love while you’re away. I’m currently a full time veterinary assistant so I can provide services to animals safely. I l o v e a n i m a l s. I can come to your home and watch and/or walk your fur baby. I have my own fur baby but he does not like other dogs.

“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her. I am sure many times she spent more than the allotted time living on him. She understood & provided for the needs of a senior dog. I definitely recommend Peyton & will call on her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of our family’s pets by providing them daily care as well as being sure our family pets have the vet care and attention they need. Both my pets and my family pets always get the love and attention they deserve. I currently work as a school photographer, so I work plenty of mornings, but my normal workdays are done before lunch! I have plenty of free time in the afternoons. I have seen first hand the dangers of allowing animals to escape or free roam around your home. I am very protective of the animals I care for, making sure their environment is safe and inviting.

About: I have experience helping care for family and friends’ animals throughout my life. I have experience with watching animals over night, taking them on daily walks, as well as general check ins. I have previous experience with grooming that helped me develop my responsiveness to an animals mood as well as fine tune patience based on their individual needs. Along with this, I have had a variety of animals as a part of my household since childhood. I do have experience caring for animals that are in their elder years, as well as animals that struggle with forms of anxiety. I currently have a flexible schedule that means I am generally available at points throughout the day starting at 8AM. I am happy to work to make scheduling arrangements that are easy to work with. A dogs safety is always most important to me. This means that I plan for the unpredictable moments that all animals have and care about following whatever pacing each individual animal needs from initial meeting to focused attention on walks.
