About: Hi! I’m Lillian, and I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all kinds (more frequently larger dogs) mostly for friends and family but now I’m excited to expand my horizons and offer my help to fellow pet parents in the community! Growing up, I helped care for a physically challenged dog, which taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to adapt to any pup’s needs. I’m comfortable with all personalities, energy levels, and special requirements. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or specific routines, I’m happy to follow any instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I truly treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! It depends what the owner wants for their animal/home I’m happy to be however flexible they want me to be. Some families prefer pet sitters to stay at their homes overnight and spend most of their day caring for the pet while other families prefer sitters to drop in every 4 hours or so to feed, provide water, entertain, and walk the animal. I’m ok doing which ever but my schedule might differ depending on the week but communication is all that matters! I cannot offer boarding since I will be moving into a non pet friendly apartment soon but for overnight/day pet sitting I will just follow your directions and rules!

“Lena sends the best pics and updates and took great care of my pets while I was away!! I looked forward to her updates after each visit and it made me more comfortable leaving my pets knowing they’re in good hands 🖤🖤”


About: As someone who grew up in and out of vet clinics, I have a lot of experience with caring for and watching cats and dogs. At the moment, I’m working part time at different hours. I’ll be available for overnight care on weekends and before and after work hours during the week. I live in a four bedroom apartment with three roommates so I will only be able to care for pets in clients’ homes. I make sure to stimulate the pet with play and outdoor activities while also ensuring rest during hotter times of the day. Overnight, I would allow the pet to sleep in the room with me so they can feel safe and comfortable.

“Carson did a great job again watching our mini dachshund. She administered her medications daily at the proper time, and took her for daily short walks. Very reliable. Sent us daily pictures which helped a lot so we could enjoy ourselves while being gone. She also left our home very clean. Would highly recommend her.”


“Karli stayed at my house and took care of my dog while I was out of town, and she did an absolutely amazing job. She treated my home with respect and my dog with so much love and attention. I received regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind the entire time I was away. My dog was calm, happy, and clearly well-cared for when I got back—which is all I can ask for! I will definitely book her again. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Cherish is wonderful. Kept me updated with photos while I was away. I used many sitters over the years and she is by far the BEST. Even my house was clean when I came home. Will certainly book with her again and highly recommend her. She loves your critters like they are hers.”


About: I have had pets in my life ever since I was a child and I also have experience raising foster babies and volunteering at the local Baton Rouge animal shelter. I have previous pet sitting experience and can not wait to get back into taking care of other's babies! Most of my experience is with Dogs, Cats, and Lizards, but I am adaptable to plenty of pet types. Just let me know how I can provide the best experience for you and your best friend. I work an "on-call" job so my schedule can be busy one week or completely free another. I am looking to fill in on those free weeks. Big fan of positive reinforcement as well as plenty of treats for simple commands. It is important to be friendly with the animals in our lives and to do our best to provide an enriched environment for them to inhabit.

About: I’ve had friends and neighbors rely on me to take care of their dogs when gone. I’m good with walking them and taking them out to the park. I love to play with them and make sure they are loved when their owner is out of town. I can’t have my own dog in Baton Rouge and looking to help others when in a crunch. I work Monday-Thursday on the road most weeks but not all weeks. I am free every weekend to take care of your dogs. On weekends I just hang out in my apartment by myself most the time. I live in an apartment but we do have a dog park. And I am willing to travel to take care of your dog also. I can also load the dog up and take him/her to the park. The dog can stay overnight on weekends and I even have a few dog toys and bones at my place for dogs.

“Evan took great care of my standard poodle for over a week. He followed my detailed instructions for feeding and walking routines, sent pictures and kept me updated on how my boy was doing. I highly recommend Evan!”


About: I’ve had the joy of caring for my dog Rocky since he was a teen until he went to heaven, and I miss him every day. He was such a gift, and made me fall even more in love with all doggos! I’ve also pet-sat for friends, family, and neighbors in California, Texas, and now Baton Rouge. From belly rubs to daily walks, I make sure every pup gets the love and attention they deserve while their favorite humans are away. I’m currently a grad student at LSU, so I have the flexibility to offer care throughout the weekdays, whether it’s am or pm or pockets of time. I have a lot of experience adjusting, work, school, and let’s be honest, life in the calendar (we love organization over here!) and pet care fits great into that routine. I’m happy to work around your pup’s needs to ensure they get all the attention and love they deserve. When caring for your pets in their own home, my main priorities are creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I understand that having a stranger come into their space is a big deal, so I make an extra effort to respect their environment and establish trust from the moment I arrive. I follow any specific instructions you provide regarding routines, diet, and special needs to ensure your pet's thriving. I also take care to keep their environment safe and secure, whether that’s ensuring doors are closed, cleaning up, or anticipating any potential hazards. Our pups will show us when they're feeling comfortable, excited, or in need of extra attention, and I make sure to stay tuned in to their needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed my entire life. I’ve always consecutively (2 over 16 years) owned Huskies. They match my energy and personality. I am open to pet care and pet walks all the time as I am in between jobs and selling my house. Dogs are the best company. I have a fenced yard and a dog door. There is endless water with my giant water jug feeder. My home is 3 bedrooms open with a window to see out.

“Kristen was fantastic. It’s easy to see why she has piled up so many 5* reviews. Super pleasant to interact with, and what great communication. Lots of pictures, so there was never any doubt she was taking great care of the pack. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“Naz was an absolute blessing this holiday season! She took care of our cat with so much love and thought. She sent us daily updates including pictures, videos, and let us know how he was doing. She was responsible and timely, coming twice a day to not only feed him but also to provide some love! It can be so hard to leave your pet not knowing how they will do (10 days in our case!), but knowing Naz was there brought us so much comfort. I'd recommend her 10x over. Thank you Naz!”
