“Marisa was great! She was extremely accommodating, always trying to help make things easier for us for drop off and pick up. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and my pup definitely had fun because he has been sleeping all day. A sure sign of a good time for a one year old lab! =) it was awesome to know that he was having fun while we were away.”
“This was our first time using a sitter for our Peanut. Lauren scheduled a meet and greet before our trip to see how the dogs got along. All went well at the meet and greet. During Peanut's stay, Lauren sent numerous pictures and updates. We will definitely use again!”
“Anna was the perfect person to care for our girls. Puppies are hard. Two puppies are even harder but she Rocked it. I wrote instructions for her and she followed them to the ‘T’ even using our ‘command words’. She even set in the floor cuddling them during a storm to calm her fears I will definitely use her again.”
“This was our first use of a Rover sitter and it was perfect. Our pups were happy and calm when they returned which tells me they were happy and calm while there. Courtney sent updates and cute photos. All our instructions were followed regarding meds, walks and food, and when our senior pup, Jazz, was being picky about eating, Courtney added some broth to encourage her which worked! Thank you, Courtney!”
“We received many videos and pics to update us on how our little pup was doing. It made it so much easier to go away for a week without her. We missed her but we didn’t worry and always knew she was happy and well taken care of. Aja was very friendly and warm and good to work with.”
“Kelly was fabulous! This was our first time using Rover and Kelly came highly recommended to us. Our 10-year old dog was well taken care of all around, and we enjoyed our vacation time so much more knowing our dog was safe, happy, and comfortable in Kelly’s home. We got photos everyday and Kelly communicated very well. Her home is clean, and because she is a dog owner, she knew how important and special our dog is to us!”
“If you love your dog and want them to have the best possible care I fully recommend choosing Alex and her husband they did a fantastic job. My dog Domino had the time of his life and I couldn't thank them enough. I got photos and videos of my dog just having a ball playing with their dogs.”
“Jena was amazing! My pup can be a lot (she’s a Jack Russell) and Jena took great care of her! She has a very clean, dog friendly home. She was welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend booking with Jena!”
“Tyler was an awesome caretaker for my elderly pup. Kept in constant contact with multiple photos and videos and provided a safe and calm environment for my dog. You can tell he genuinely enjoys dogs. Hope to use again soon.”
“Savannah was Great with my babies. They did a meet and Greet before actually staying and they loved all on her. Savannah sent pics and kept me updated on how they were doing. My babies were very happy on the pics. I highly recommend Savannah and will be using her again. Thanks again😊”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter who has been actively caring for pets on Rover for the last 2 years. I am local to all of St. Tammany and am available to Mandeville, Covington, Abita Springs, Madisonville, and Ponchatoula. Over the last 20 years, I have cared for many different breeds and ages. I have also fostered animals from the humane society in the past. I am very loving and nurturing and will give the pets all the care they need. I have a lot of availability and am very reliable. If you need me at the last minute, I can most likely be available with no problem. I also work from home so can be with the pets 24/7! I work from home so am available most of the time. I can take many breaks throughout the day to walk and care for pets as needed. I have two friendly ragdoll cats who will keep your fur baby company. I also live in a very safe neighborhood and community. I will always keep an eye on the animal to make sure they are safe and well cared for.
About: I have been around many different kinds of animals. Family and friends have always been able to rely on me to take care of the animals with my who heart and soul. I work full time now from 8-5 M-F. Weekends I’m available and work close to home. I’m apart of the army national guard so some weekends I will not be available. Within my clients home their animals will be given the best belly rubs and pets I can give. I will do everything with the best of my ability.
“Savannah was an absolutely EXCELLENT dog sitter. She was very sweet, very understanding, and I could instantly tell she has a love for dogs! She took very good care of our dog, Storm and we will definitely be booking with her again.”
“I wish there were more than 5 stars to give this young lady. She constantly sent pictures and let me know what they were up to and how she was doing. She spoiled Fergie and was so sweet to her and she came back refreshed and clean. Thanks so much for an amazing experience. I highly recommend boarding with her.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life! They are treated like children! I always have treats on hand :) I am the one everyone calls when they have questions about their animals! I am very knowledgeable when it comes to animals! I would love to watch your animals and let them come over and play! I am a teacher, and have two young boys. My 4 year old will give your pet all the exercise and playtime! I do have cameras inside so I can watch throughout the day also! Other than being at school, I am always home! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your dogs company! We also have a large empty lot next to us that the dogs could run around and play in!
About: I love being engaged and active with each and every fur baby I’m blessed to watch. I love seeing their individual personalities blossom and grow! I can travel if needed. I create my schedule around my clients wants and needs. I try my best to be as flexible as possible because life happens to all of us. I am very willing to travel beyond the 60 mile radius allowed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Ponchatoula 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 Ponchatoula.
Tip: 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 Ponchatoula 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.
