Danielle took such good care of my George! She sent pictures every day, and it made my travel much easier knowing my George was getting loved on at home.

Olivia has done multiple drop in visits for me and my dogs while we are in town for hurricane relief work. We currently stay in a hotel about an hour away from work and work from the early morning till evening time. Olivia’s drop in visits has given us peace of mind knowing our dogs get to go potty, get a drink of water, and have a treat when she gets there in the middle of the day. We are so thankful we found a sitter that has been understanding, responsive, and flexible throughout the whole process. We are just sad we will be moving on to a different city soon and will have to find a different sitter. Thank you Olivia for all you have done for us!

About: I have 12+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I currently share my home with my two rescues: Princess, a calm and loving 10-year-old lab mix, and Ross, a playful almost 3-year-old dachshund mix. My late German Shepherd, Thor, was with me for 7 wonderful years and passed in October of 2024 at 10 years old. Since 2021, I’ve been active in dog rescue and fostering, caring for countless pups including senior dogs, puppies, and even Amish puppy mill rescues who needed patience, rehab, and lots of love. Watching them blossom into happy, adoptable dogs has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. My dogs are truly my world, and I’ll treat yours like family too. I have a fenced-in yard for safe playtime and a cozy home where they’ll be loved. You can always count on me to keep you updated with photos and messages, so you know your furry friend is happy and cared for. Right now, I’m available throughout the week since I don’t begin my full-time job until the end of October. Once I start, I’ll still be available for boarding and drop-in visits—your pet will just need to be comfortable with me being away during normal work hours. In my home, your dog will have a safe and loving environment with plenty of playtime in my fenced-in yard. I can crate your pup if that’s what you prefer, or keep them free to relax with my own two dogs—whatever makes them most comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines and preferences closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or snuggles. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they do with you.

About: I've been in love with animals all my life. They were deep childhood friends and I feel a special bond with them. I grew up on a hobby farm and in 4-H. I am now a retired RN, and I'm enjoying being surrounded by animals again. I have taken care of domesticated cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and gerbils, guinea pigs, and birds. Any animal needing help or love grabs my heart. It is my goal to give this love to your cherished companion when you are gone. I also know how hard it can be for you to be separated from your pet, and am very conscientious about sending updates, pictures/videos and communicating anything else that needs to be communicated. I am working part time, and have afternoons, evenings and weekends available. I am hoping to build up a regular client base and have more time available soon. I live in a small home so I prefer to take care of your loved ones in your home. I am able to overnight: house-sitting, cleaning, and pet-sitting. I have plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and play-time on the days I am working, and welcome all-day care in your home on my time off. I am situationally aware and keep an eye on the environment at all times when walking your pup and playing, as well as on any potential escape routes or hazardous items if eaten or drunk. I am very respectful of your pet's space and routine and take my time to sense in to what will make them feel the most loved, the safest, and the most comfortable while you are gone. I am a reliable communicator regarding anything with your home or your pet that would require your attention.

About: I have experience working in multiple veterinary clinics, which gives me a deeper understanding of animal health and behavior than the average sitter. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience or special attention. I’ve also been pet sitting and boarding for over three years, so I’m used to keeping pets comfortable, sticking to routines, and making them feel safe while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel loved and stress-free. I recently moved to Lafayette from Pineville, I’m looking for new clients. I am available any day of the week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they get regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I make sure they stay on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I can provide your pet with safety and a lovable environment while in my care. Their physical and mental needs will be met to my best ability.

About: I would humbly refrain from making the statement that I am better than my counterparts, as that is not for me to judge. I will say that I am an incredibly caring and empathetic individual, and that translates well to how I operate animals as well as people. I grew up with dogs and cats inside of my home, and I was always very attentive to them in terms of playing, petting, feeding, and making them feel cared for. My experience as a sitter only spans about a year altogether, but as a mother of human children, I understand the responsibility that comes with monitoring and caring for any member of someone else’s family. Animals are never excluded in that💙 I have two children, one of which is in daycare and the other in grade school. During the summer months, my availability would be from 7AM to 5PM, as I’d have to pick my youngest up from daycare by 5:30PM. From August to May, my availability would be 7:30AM - 5PM, as this would grant me time to drop my oldest off to school before beginning a day’s work. At the moment, I can only offer care in the home of clients, as my landlord does not allow pets to be present on the premises. Having said this, I am flexible in the number of services I am willing to offer in the home of clients. I want each individual to feel confident in the care their pet is receiving while they are away. I will do what I can to ensure this is the case 💙

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I understand that it’s important to follow the rules and be safe. I know that you want your fur babies taken care of a certain way, which is exactly what I do. I have experience with all sizes of dogs and a lot of different breeds. I enjoy playing and being outside with my pet. I know I would want my fur baby to be taken care of if I wasn’t home to do so, and that’s what I want to do is to ensure you that your fur baby is in good hands and getting the care and attention they need and deserve! I work a full time job during the week 7-3. After 3 I am available to come and spend time with your pups and fur babies! I make sure to leave everything in the home better than what I left it. I make sure all doors are locked when leaving, I make sure fence doors are shut before letting dog out if that’s what the owner wants. I always double check everything before leaving and follow any and all rules for whoever’s house I am dropping in at.

Destiny was an amazing dog sitter for my children’s pups! Her check-ins were consistent and effective for daily interactions with the pups. She communicated very well throughout the scheduled drop in visits. I would highly recommend Destiny for any future dog sitting opportunities!

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained! Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy nap, I always cater to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need extra TLC. I understand that every pet is family, and I treat them like my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or just someone to spoil them while you’re away, I’m here to help! I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to their routine. My availability varies, but I always make sure to prioritize the pets in my care, giving them the time and attention they deserve! I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for, whether in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep their pet happy and at ease. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have two friendly dogs to keep them company, as well as a safe and welcoming environment. I also have a crate available if needed. My goal is to provide an stress-free, loving experience for every pet.

About: I live a very active lifestyle (running and hiking are my primary hobbies) and most of my time spent with your dog will reflect that. Lots of play time! I have a 3 year old border collie who loves making new friends. Great for energetic dogs whose owners’ schedules aren’t flexible enough to take them out and burn their excess energy! Also able to accommodate dogs who are shy/nervous and need a quieter environment or one without other animals. even available for the holidays! Happy to care for dogs big and small, young and old. I can’t wait to meet my new furry friends! Available for boarding any time- I am available for walks and drop-ins after 5pm on weekdays. Likely available for all holidays as well if you’re out of town! I have a fenced in yard and an active dog to keep yours company! I can also keep them separated if you prefer as well.

About: At a very young age, my dream job was to be a dog walker, (seriously)lol. I love all animals and will treat your pet as my own when in my watch. Currently I am part time at a local fitness gym. Weekends, Mondays, and Wednesdays, I am completely available all day at anytime . Tuesdays I am available before 1pm and after 6pm. Thursdays I am available before 10am and after 2pm. Fridays I am available before 10am and after 3 pm. My Neighborhood is not big but houses are well spaced. A walk around my neighborhood makes about 1 mile. Every morning my dog and I either go on a walk or go run around at the dog park. With the heat, walks on pavement will never occur unless the sun is just rising. I have a fenced in yard, and a kitty pool for the summer to cool off! I will provide your dog with much exercise but also much rest inside. I will crate dogs that are used to being crates at night, but if they sleep better in a bed then that’s where they will be sleeping.

About: I’ve taken care cats, dogs, and birds since I’ve been about 3 years old. I am currently a vet technician and I have 2 dogs and fours cats. They all get along together. I have a 60lbs husky and a 8lbs chiweenie who get along great and loves cats. I do offer nail trims and baths as well. I am very good at nail trims. Many people have relied on me to care for their animals. I have worked in professional places that do both animal care and boarding. I know the signs to look out for if needed. I have been medicating dogs and cats for the past three years. If any emergency was to rise then I know exactly where both emergency clinics are. I know that you’ll get the best care for your baby and that you’ll get updates daily from them. I’ll let you know how they are doing everyday, you’ll get a picture of them so you’ll be able to see for yourself that they’re having a blast. I work Monday- Friday 8-5. I get a lunch break from 12-1, and go home to let my dogs out to potty and get a little exercise before heading back to work for 1:30. I get off at 5 and go home and take care of my pets. I feed them all and of course let them out to go potty and get some exercise. I am off on the weekends, and I stay at home so it wouldn’t no problem to have a few fur babies over. I don’t have a new fence quite yet but I do walk the dogs frequently and let them play together inside and outside ,I have two dogs, two husky mixes who loves to play with other doggie. They both do get along with cats as I have 4 and my fourth one and my husky are absolutely the best of friends. I can go to a home if need be. I am vet technician. So I am well equipped to handle any kind of emergency situation. If your baby needs daily medications I know all the ways to give it safely. I am very good with nervous babies. I make sure that any pet that I watch does have their vaccines. If a Pet doesn’t have their vaccines then I will not watch them with other dogs. It would have to be in their home instead. I want to make sure everyone is safe. I do offer baths, and nail trims as well. I also offer a bit of grooming. Nothing professional but I can do simple trims, etc.
