They never leave our house and they don’t travel well, so I knew they would be stressed, but we were moving and I didn’t want to risk them getting out so I chose to board them with Ella for two nights.

About: I've been around animals of all kinds since I was young. I even lived on a farm at one point in time working with animals ranging from rabbits to cattle. I've done volunteer work at shelters and taken care of dogs and cats belonging to friends and family. I also have my own pup, Pace, who I've taken care of for over 9 years. I love all animals, especially dogs, and have experience with walking, feeding and taking care of many breeds of all sizes. I am a full time college student, however my afternoons are almost completely free during the week. Boarding or overnight sitting throughout the week is off the table, however I will be as flexible as possible to accommodate drop ins, walks and sitting during the day. While I don't have my own place at the moment, I have experience with dogs in almost any home environment. I have no problem with structuring and handling feeding, walks or playtime. I might even enjoy it more than they will.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 15 and am now an Animal Science major. I also work in a veterinary hospital’s boarding department, caring for dogs, cats and other pets as well as helping with medications. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I’m available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays after 12 PM, and I also have availability every other weekend. I work Wednesdays and Fridays, but I’m happy to coordinate care around those days when possible. I provide care in my home or clients’ homes. I have access to a dog park and prioritize pets’ comfort and routines with attentive care.
About: I am a design student at LSU. Beyond my 7 years of experience in pet care, I grew up with and took care of 4 dogs, 2 cats, fish, and a lizard (his name is peanut). I love keeping owners involved, so you can expect photos, updates, and little moments from your pet's day while you're away. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am currently a full time student at LSU. However, I have a flexible schedule so I will be able to work around that commitment. After years of caring for pets, l've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: I was a veterinary technician for 3.5 years and am now a veterinary school student! Outside of being a vet tech, I have also been pet sitting for over 6 years. I have experience working with cats and dogs of all sizes as well as bunnies and birds. I love petsitting and dog walking because it gives me the privilege of spending time with so many pets ☺️ I am currently in school, and fortunately my schedule for classes gives me some flexibility in fitting pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I am flexible and can adapt to any routine/special needs for your pet. My goal is to make keep your pets as comfortable as they would be when you are home!
About: I’ve been caring for the cats and dogs of others since I was 15. Whether this be dog walking or drop in visits, I’ve got it covered. I also have experience with reptiles and rodents! I have one cat of my own who is asthmatic, and I grew up with a cat and 3 dogs! I can properly handle rowdy dogs, leash pullers, and much more. I know how to work on basic commands such as sit and down if you are in the training process! I have a flexible class and work schedule. I’m in a prime area for fellow LSU students in need of pet care. As an early bird, I am more than open to waking up early for drop ins or dog walks, and I can always make time in the evening as well. If mid day stops are needed, I can definitely try to work it into my day! I can promise a clean and safe environment your pet will thrive in. I am extremely vigilant when it comes to the safety of both the animal and the home, and I am skilled (from experience) at ensuring the best experience for the pets and belongings as a whole. I have worked with harness trained cats and know the limitations they require! I’ve walked dogs of all leash types and am more than comfortable having fun in backyards and parks!
About: As a veterinary student, I have experience handling and caring for animals through veterinary school, clinical experiences, and shelter volunteering. My training has taught me to pay close attention to an animal’s behavior, comfort, appetite, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and caring for pets that may need a little extra patience or attention. While pet sitting is not a substitute for veterinary care, my veterinary background helps me recognize when something seems unusual and communicate concerns quickly with an owner. Hi! I’m an LSU veterinary student with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. As both a veterinary student and pet owner, I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pet while you’re away. My veterinary training has given me experience with animal handling, recognizing changes in behavior and comfort, and administering medications. I provide attentive, individualized care and make sure owners receive regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. As a veterinary student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I’m very intentional about only accepting bookings that I can fully accommodate. I plan pet care around my class and school schedule to make sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I’m generally available for evening care on weekdays, with additional flexibility throughout the day depending on my class schedule. My weekends tend to be more flexible. I’m happy to coordinate with each owner to maintain their pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and medication routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a veterinary student, I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice anything unusual. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine and your specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household safety. I also understand that every pet has different boundaries, so I take the time to build trust and allow them to interact at their own pace. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your space with respect. You can expect regular updates and plenty of pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Port Allen
Zoey (Bunny) took care of our two cats for a week. Bunny did a great job. They kept us informed with updates and pictures of the cats throughout the whole time we were gone and even took care of a few random house issues that came up while we were away! We would definitely recommend Bunny to anyone looking for a great cat sitter and we'll be using them again.
10/10. She was flexible with a last minute booking and followed the directions I gave to a T. I was worried because not everybody is familiar with cats but she did a great job. I could also tell that she actually interacted with him instead of just sitting letting the time pass. I would book again!

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
