“Fallyn is a wonderful sitter. She always takes great care of Velvet and she’s always sad to leave. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a lovable environment and comfortable stay for their pet.”
“Keith was great. We had boarded Mocha at the vet before, but this was our first time using Rover. Mocha is very shy and usually takes time to warm up to people, but Keith really understood how to handle dogs. He also let her spend time with his own dogs, which helped her feel more comfortable. I believe Mocha had a really good experience, and I would highly recommend Kieth.”
“What an amazing experience! I’ve never left Abby for more than a day but Julie made me feel relaxed and comfortable. I highly recommend her. She is caring and loving, providing an environment like home. Thank you Julie.”
“Joyce is the best Grandma for our Cooper, he was actually sad for a day after leaving Joyce's home, but he is happy again to be at our home...LOL. Cooper doesn't go to anyone else but Joyce!”
About: As a pet owner myself, I have experience with how to keep feeding routines, administer meds, walks, playtime, potty breaks, grooming and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’m currently working remotely and part time. This leaves me plenty of time to care for pets on weekdays and weekends, throughout the day. Early mornings and late evenings are no problem. We have a private fenced in yard for those that need ample activity. Pets are cared for in the home but also have their own room for when they need a quiet corner.
“Ella is like our child and we were nervous about leaving her for a week. Lauren and Cody treated Ella like a member of the family. We would absolutely trust them with our girl again. It was especially nice to have their children interact with Ella as she loves children.”
“Marqita was great! She is proactive in letting you know how your dog is doing during the stay and she makes sure to ask the proper questions to make sure they will be comfortable while you are away! This was my first experience on Rover and I definitely will be using them from now on especially Marqita!”
About: To begin my long and ongoing animal care journey, I have been working at a grooming salon for seven and half years. This was my introduction to learning key behaviors about different breeds of dogs. As well as gaining knowledge on the individual needs for each client. I was able to understand the importance of safety for the animal as well as for myself. Honestly, my favorite part was making a connection with people through taking care of who they consider to be a family member. While it was a lot of pressure caring for animals at a young age, it was instrumental in building my character and obtaining the confidence to be passionate about animals. This is my first job that ultimately led to my drive for veterinary medicine. I have been involved at a veterinary clinic for the past two summers and let me tell you it has been such an exciting journey! I started off learning animal behavior, but now I get to connect it to science! At a clinic you are given insight on how to work swiftly in doing what’s best for an animal's health while wearing your heart on your sleeve with clients. That skill has been something that I am most grateful for being in the field of veterinary science! Along with those jobs, during the semesters I work just off campus at the Aquatic Germplasm Genomic Resource Center where I have the privilege to take care of a variety of fish, frogs, and axolotls! Finally, I babysit pets for former teachers, family members, you name it! I just love being a helping hand wherever I am needed! I’m currently working only 4 to 5 hours a week, so I am most flexible Thursday through Friday! I am available for boarding on the weekends! On Thursdays I am available after 2:30 pm and Fridays after 3:30 pm! I love to provide walks as frequently as I can. It's great for the physical and mental wellbeing of the pet. With that being said I would have heavily detailed conversations with clients to ensure how their pet is around other animals as well as any leash training techniques that are in place. This way I can know what environments will be stress free for the pet when we decide to head out for some outside playing. I follow the owners’ instructions on regular feedings, exercise, cleanliness of the animal and house rules. Lastly, I am a firm believer in photo and video updates! I know how nerve wracking it can be entrusting someone with caring for our furry friends!
“I can’t say enough about Emily! She watched both of my pups while I was away on vacation and they were sooo loved! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be boarding with her in the future.”
“We feel so comfortable leaving Hank with Robin. She is so kind and attentive. She sends lots of photo updates during Hank's visit. She is very generous! We always come home with a toy or special treat for Hank.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know firsthand that our pets aren’t “just dogs”—they’re family and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby. I provide patient, loving and attentive care and treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, routines and needs. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I’m happy to send photos and messages during your pup’s stay or visit. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for like family. I’m a SAHM and I run my own business so my day consists of running a few errands, loving up with my 5 furbabies and trying to end world hunger! My yard is not fenced however there’s ample room to run around with a leash, potty breaks and I’m happy to crate as requested. I bring my furbabies to the local fenced in dog park, I’m sure they’d love more company.
About: I grew up with a Yorkie and now care for him in his senior years with doggy dementia, which has taught me the importance of patience, gentle routines, and creating a calm, comforting environment. Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays I get out of class for 11 and am free for the rest of the day. Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little tougher for me due to my classes being scattered throughout the day. I enjoy taking them on walks, giving them baths, playing with them, cuddling with them, feeding and taking them out, and just having an emotional support animal around me!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs through my previous work assisting a sitter on Rover. During that time, I helped with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable in their environment. I worked with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adjust my care to meet each animal's unique needs. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attention are when it comes to animals. Whether it's an energetic pup that needs extra playtime or a more relaxed dog that just wants companionship, I make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve. I'm also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requests. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being at all times. As a college student with a very flexible schedule, I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. My availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays without feeling rushed. Because of this flexibility, I can adjust to your pet's routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever they need it. 1 understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive, following instructions carefully, and making sure pets are secure and comfortable in their environment. You can count on me to provide dependable, respectful care while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve.

About: I’ve been fostering and volunteering with dogs for years, so I’m comfortable with all kinds. I really enjoy training too, whether it’s playing ball, doing some basic obedience work, or just sitting and creating a relaxed state of mind. I’m good at reading cues and making sure the dogs feel safe while they’re with me. Options include field play time, scent games, recall work, and a slat-mill for burning energy inside during the hottest months. I am certified by Animal Behavior College and have been training at Larry Benoit's facility for about 6 months. I care for all of the dogs just like my own! I have many dogs here and allow friends to play. I can also crate and rotate if you're not sure your dog will get along with others. When we train, we focus one on one!

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
98% of sitters in Port Hudson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Port Hudson 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 Port Hudson.
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 Port Hudson 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.

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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
