About: I’ve had dog, cats, reptiles, and fish pretty much all my life. I love meeting, playing, and taking care of animals. I live to see them happy and comfortable. I tend to get along with animals very well! I have multiple animals that I help take care of daily. They are like my siblings and I love them dearly. I am my family’s pet sitter and would like to expand. I much rather keep the animal(s) in their own home to be the most comfortable. I like to build trust with any animal I come to care for like it is my own.

“Chloe is dedicated to walking my pup who loves her. She braves all weather conditions and schedule changes with a good attitude. My dog Sophie gets the zoomies after every walk.”


About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs and cats) for nearly my entire life! I have a genuine love for all animals and am very attentive & patient. I currently have 3 cats with 3 entirely different personalities, a sweet senior dog, and a fiesty little hamster. Tell me your needs & they shall be met! I work part-time and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I will work with your requests and be very upfront about expectations before the scheduled visits. I am offering to come to the pet’s home and provide care for them there. Before you’re away, we will schedule a meet up to go over everything. I’m happy to spend as much or as little time with your pets as you desire!

About: Skilled pet sitter with 3 years of experience. I sincerely enjoy spending time with all animals and I strive to treat every cat or dog as if they were my own! Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required. Please know that I will gladly spoil your pet to the fullest extent (: I'm currently working part-time while also being in the Army National Guard! I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

About: I'm retired and love all animals, I have a mini farm and just adore it, a friend of mines told me about Rover and I decided to do it to share my joy with other animals.

About: I’ve taken care of my own household dogs for my entire life, and currently care for my small dog and a rabbit. I worked at a dog daycare for 2.5 years and petsmart for 1 year. I have the flexibility to care for pets as needed due to my current work schedule. I’m available for dog walking and boarding at any time I have a small fenced yard and enjoy dog walks as well. My own dog is crated but I’m open to the owners presence for their dog when sitting.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8 years old. I have had two dogs, a hamster, and a turtle. I have also loved to take my dogs on walks and take them to the park so they can play with other dogs. I build my schedule around the pets I care for because I genuinely enjoy their company and love keeping them happy, active, and safe. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. At the moment I have one small chihuahua that loves to be outside. He is really old and can barely open his eyes in the sun, so I have bought him some sunglasses for him to wear when he goes outside. I am always looking after my dog incase he decides to run off.

I typically like to avoid walking near road ways, I don’t care for dog parks due to risk of injury and disease. On leash constantly unless in a well fenced area.

About: I previously worked at an animal shelter for three years. I handled all dogs and cats, the nice and the not so very nice.

If you have specifics for your pet, please let me know. I am pretty easy going when it comes to the proper care for your fur baby!

About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

About: I bring a calm, reliable, and attentive presence to every dog I care for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to mellow seniors—and I always take the time to learn what makes each pup feel happy and secure. I’m comfortable with administering medications (oral, topical, and injections), following detailed routines, and supporting dogs with special needs or anxiety. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship, I tailor my care to your dog’s individual personality. I also prioritize clear, consistent communication so you always feel confident and informed while you’re away. I currently work in the emergency department, so my schedule varies weekly. I typically work three days a week, including 1–2 weekends a month. This means I’m available for pet care the other four days most weeks, giving me plenty of flexibility to care for your cat when you need it When caring for cats in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, a clean litter box, and any necessary medications. I also spend quality time with each cat based on their personality—whether that’s playtime, brushing, or just quiet companionship. I’m respectful of your space, follow any instructions you provide, and keep everything tidy while you’re away. My goal is to ensure your cat feels safe and content in their own home environment.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 10. Growing up, my family has had many kinds of dogs such as a Pit Bull, Maltese, Poodle, and Yorkie. This has given me many experiences with different breeds! I trained our Pit Bull as a puppy very well! Whenever family and friends go on vacations, I am the first call (: I am currently not in school and I work from home, meaning I have plenty of time to pamper your pet with love and care! My apartment complex has an unfenced yard area great for walking and playing with pets. I have a spacious apartment where your pet can play and relax!

About: My family joked about me being Dr.Dolittle my entire life growing up. The joke stopped being funny when I was 11 & told them the animals talked to me.. now all of a sudden I’m in an all white doctoral office??? LOL Anyways back to the serious stuff. I’ve had a slew of animals growing up, rabbits, chickens, dogs, cats, lizards, a snake, guinea pigs (who had so many babies like three times omg ) a hamster (RIP GFORCE🥺) and a few birds and parakeets. I know you’re wondering omg where did all those animals go? To be frank my mom’s an a-hole and either gave them away without me knowing or with me knowing 😐😂. But nonetheless it built me to be the pet parent I am today. I’ve trained a few dogs here and there but my personal best achievement would be training my Beaux Jack. He hasn’t seen a lick of outside professional training and he is a doggone beast! Mind you he is a pit and husky mix so imagine how persistent and how patient I had to be. He is beyond stubborn and still sometimes acts like he doesn’t know something lol but he is awesome. I even taught him how to grab pampers for the baby who has 2 legs lol. Although I trained him I believe a dog should be a dog and not be ridiculed for it you know? Animals are amazing and if you listen and trust them they will become your best friend & protect and love you unconditionally. That’s why I love animals, they build loyalty humans could never understand and blindly follow and love you. Unbeatable in my opinion. I just took off work for a while because it was just too stressful so my availability is open for the most part. I’m up early mornings walking my dog so I’m available then as well too. My dog gets the best of the best treatment and I believe I’ve spoiled him rotten lol. He has 3 water bowls at every access point in the house , he eats premium Ms.Rachels dog food. Regular baths maybe 2 - 3 every 2 weeks depending on his activities outside. I watch his weight only because of his breed and he can easily become overweight , so working him out & keep him eating the right foods. He does alot of activities like hiking, swimming, traveling, and I have some tunnels & balance boards in the backyard. Anything you need my to do with your dog to care for him/her & enrich their life I can do. I’m all for it , trust!
