About: I am a 2nd year student at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge. I grew up with a love for animals and decided to turn my passion into my career. I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. I have small animal clinic experience so I am very comfortable with giving medications, identifying signs of anxiety or pain, and providing loving care to any animal. I have 3 dogs right now that I absolutely adore and spend most of my time with. Being a veterinary student means that I get the opportunity to deal with all sorts of animals weekly. Animals bring me joy and the more I can be around them, the better! I feed my dogs twice a day and take them on daily walks. I play with them as much as I can to get their energy out and cuddle with them once they are tired out. When I dog-sit for people, I usually go to their house 3 times a day, play with them, and ensure they get enough attention and playtime. I am also comfortable with giving baths and trimming nails.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had one by my side. Over the years, my family has owned a variety of breeds, including a Yorkie, Beagle mix, Chocolate Lab, Golden Retriever, and Miniature Doodle, which has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. During my junior year of high school, I adopted my own Yorkie puppy, who is now 3 years old and truly my best friend. Having cared for dogs my whole life, I understand how important it is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and cared for. I take pride in making sure each pet gets the attention, patience, and care they deserve. Dogs may not be able to talk, but I will always make sure their needs are understood and met. As a full-time student at LSU, I have a very flexible schedule and currently do not have another job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available Monday through Saturday for whatever times are needed, whether that includes walking, feeding, watering, playing, or simply keeping your dog company. For the summer, my schedule is completely open from the times 7am-5pm, so I am available whenever you may need reliable and loving pet care. I’m committed to making sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I will send lots of pictures of your furry friend because I believe it gives a piece of mind to doggy parents and will play with them intill they run through all their energy!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, snakes, you name it. Proven ability to provide the proper care for the pets as stated by family, friends, and neighbors!

Let my boys out and played with them before putting them to bed! My dog’s meds came in that day I was gone and Amelia even opened the package for me and gave him his necessary medication! Very timely and wants to make sure that she does everything you asked! Thank you!

Samantha was an excellent cat sitter, and I would absolutely book her again. She was reliable, excellent at communicating, and clearly very attentive to our kittens. While we were away, she checked in with questions when needed, confirmed details, and reassured us that everything was taken care of. She followed feeding instructions carefully, made sure both the kittens and outdoor cats were cared for, and gave the kittens plenty of love and attention. It was such a relief knowing our pets were in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter!

About: Hi, I’m Megan! Animals have been a part of my life since I was five years old, and caring for them is second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve rescued and nurtured several pets, giving them the love and attention they deserve. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of trust—qualities I bring to every walk. Whether your pup needs a brisk stroll or a gentle companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. I work full-time but have evenings free several days during the week. I would love to fill my additional free time walking and loving on your pet! My dogs are like children. If they allow a lot of love and affection, they are going to get it from me. My dogs are spoiled rotten and have the best of everything! Pets are my passion, so your babies will have the best of everything with me too!

About: I’ve cared for cats since I was 13 and have pet sit for friends and family over the years! I love all animals and would love to learn about more! I’m currently a college student and would love to care for animals between classes and schoolwork! Due to the summer my schedule is extremely flexible! Reach out to me and I’ll do whatever I can to make something work. I care for pets by feeding and entertaining them for a bit. I’m open to cleaning after them where needed and I know every pet has different needs!

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, and have had two dogs myself. I’ve spent the last two years living with two wonderful cats. I easily warm up to new pets, and will take my time when learning your pet’s needs. I can quickly learn feeding requirements despite how complex it gets, I remain patient always. I have been pet sitting for neighbors and family for 5 years now, and I’d like to continue giving a helping hand to pets nearby. I work a restaurant job starting at 4, so I am available until 3:30 everyday. I am able to be up early in the morning, and can stay to pet sit until I need to leave for work. I help with my roomates cats daily by feeding/playing. I do not offer in home service, but I am mobile and able to house sit and make drop in visits as needed! I walked my own dog semi-weekly for 2 years and I currently help care for my two roomates cats.

About: It is pure joy for me to care for animals. I have been house sitting and caring for a family for over 9 years. Their two dogs are no less than family to me and my pets. I have a deep love, compassion, and commitment for the well being of all animals, that I believe is a gift God gave me. I have always opened my home to animals, and I love having them around me. I have never been apprehensive or fearful around any animal breed or their behavior. Trust me, I’ve been in some very dangerous places while rescuing animals. I’ve done and seen it all, but I think it’s a gift I was born with, that gives me that fearless and caring nature. I know animals can sense your intentions, so there is no faking it. I have been so blessed to have Wiley, a Chihuahua I rescued in California, and a Rabbit Flopsy who thinks he is also a dog. Sadly, my precious rescue cat Gracie, passed away last month, and we are heartbroken. The 3 of them were so close. I can only promise you, that I would love and care for your animals, as if they were my own, and I look forward to the opportunity. If I’m not already scheduled, I will always accept. I’m open to 7 days a week. I’m very spontaneous and I am very flexible. So last minute requests are not a problem. I have two fenced in patios. No yard, but lots of grass in the neighborhood for walking. When inside they have all the privileges my pets would have. I do prefer to have my dog Wiley with me, if I am house sitting. See his profile, he is wonderful with everyone and everything.

About: I am a Least intrusive minimally aversive dog trainer, and AKC evaluator. I foster with multiple rescues. I have experience working with all types of dogs. I am very knowledgeable on dog body language, behavior, and genetics. You can also visit us on instagram for pictures of past and current boarding pups, and don’t forget to send us a message on Instagram with the word “Rover” to unlock an exclusive discount Avalon.k9s I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself, I spend my free time training dogs, and when I’m busy I’m also training dogs. I have a whole room in my house dedicated to dogs, but they’re welcome anywhere in the house, I have a fenced in yard and I’m located close to some lakes. I have tons of unique enrichment opportunities for your pups, including things like snuffle mats, puzzles, kongs, and more. My house is puppy proofed, because I often foster and train dogs! Being a multiple dog household I cannot board any dog with same sex aggression, human aggression, or idiopathic aggression, and reactive dogs will be a case by case basis, However, being a trainer I am more than open to help families work through these issues. Please let me know of any medical conditions or allergies! I like to use treats when working with dogs, so I recommend bringing some yummy high value treats so their tummy doesn’t get upset! If you are interested in dog training and would like to do a Board & Train contact me for more details! I also offer training packages during boarding, so if you want your pup to work on some basic obedience feel free to ask for more info!

Chelsy was AMAZING!! She really took the time to make sure my girls warmed up to her and even spent extra time with them during her first check in to give them time to get comfortable with her. I will definitely be contacting Chelsy everytime! She also sent pictures/videos and kept me up to date on their eating and potty habits.

About: Hi! I'm Allison, a current law school student with a lifelong love for animals and several years of experience pet sitting and dog walking. I grew up as the go-to neighborhood dog walker and pet sitter, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. From a young age, I've been surrounded by all kinds of pets, dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, you name it! Today, my home is shared with my two dogs, two chinchillas, bunny, and my two ferrets, so I’m very familiar and comfortable with animals of all types, personalities, and care needs. I also am a volunteer at the greater chicago ferret association, and assist in caring for 70+ ferrets! Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs special attention, I bring patience, knowledge, and genuine affection to every visit. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry (or not-so-furry) family members, and I’d be honored to help care for yours like they’re my own. Let me know how I can help, walks, drop-ins, overnight care, I’ve got you covered! As a full-time law student, I keep a structured schedule that allows me to balance my studies with pet care, something that brings me both joy and a much-needed break from textbooks! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sittings outside of class hours during the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule is flexible, especially with advance notice. During the summer and school breaks, I have full availability and can accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including longer stays, extended walks, or multiple daily visits. Since I already care for multiple pets of my own, tending to animals is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I love incorporating pet care into my day, it keeps me grounded and active, and I treat every pet like they’re family. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always to make sure each animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs or medications. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything clean, secure, and consistent for your pet. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment while you're away. I also keep you updated with regular photos and notes, so you can have peace of mind while you're apart from your furry friend! At my home, pets have a safe and loving environment. I'm used to managing multiple animals with different care needs, so I’m confident handling various temperaments and routines. Whether it’s a cuddle on the couch or a long walk, I strive to make every pet feel like part of the family!

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and some of my family members and friends dogs. Whether that be taking the dog outside to use the bathroom or go on walks. I’m in nursing school and currently working part-time. I can’t work long hours due to school so this is perfect for me during the school year. I care for my pets by loving on them and giving them cuddles and belly rubs. I make sure my dog is in a safe and loving environment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Port Allen on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 538 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Port Allen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Port Allen stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Port Allen choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Port Allen with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Port Allen. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
