“I’m always relieved to leave my Shady with Kaylee because I know he will be in the best hands! She sends so many updates and is great with giving him his meds. We love Kaylee!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I’m 29 years old, born and raised in Louisiana, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, not just a job or side hustle. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets because they’re family. I have two cats of my own, so I know the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels — from playful puppies and kittens to older pets that need extra patience and gentle care. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them attention, affection, playtime, and a calm environment so they feel secure and happy. I want pet owners to have peace of mind knowing their babies are in caring, reliable hands. I’m currently working part time so I would have plenty of time for your loved ones. I’m available Monday-Sunday Mornings at 8am to 12pm . Evenings 6:30 to 8pm. I’m able to provide pets with a comfortable indoor space in my spare bedroom, giving them a calm and safe environment while in my care. I also have a spacious backyard where pets can enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely on adjustable leashes, allowing them room to move around comfortably and stretch their legs based on their needs and activity level.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life(18 years) because I always had a cat or dog growing up and I have also taken care of families/friends pets. I’m currently in college at Southeastern for Nursing and I have a passion for animals as well. This summer I am available whenever for pet sitting. I have crates at my house that I can use and I have a fenced in very big backyard for dogs to run in and have a good time.
“Katie is amazing! She took wonderful care of my dogs while we were out of town. She was so easy to communicate with and we loved the daily updates and pictures. We will definitely be booking with Katie again!”
“We loved having Abbie watch our frenchie. He was well taken care of, loved, and she kept us updated daily! It was our first time using Rover and she took him last minute for us to leave town. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I guess I would say what sets me apart from others is my attitude. I have a wonderful and positive attitude, especially around the animals and have taken care of quite a few different species of animals as well as helped to rescue some after storms and hurricanes. I am interested in this line of work because of My Love for animals, and just how crazy this world has gotten. I would much rather be with our furry friends than at/on any shop or work experience type environment. Currently, I do not work full-time. I’m looking to make this a full-time job/re-occurence, so that I can take care of, or look after your animal whenever is convenient for you. Thanks so much for including me in your pet(s) needs services. At my current home, I have a pretty large size fenced in backyard all the way around, and no holes/ways for any dogs to be able to get out. I also have a doggie door built in for animals to go through when it’s open (dogs, and cats that are able to use it). It is an extra large wide doggie door because I had a yellow lab and she was not small, so I’d gotten the biggest one that they had at the time, and installed it which is a plus for animals who can’t hold it, they can run outside to the backyard and use whenever they need to, which is a great perk. I do have one female cat currently (8 years old) and she is dog friendly. She has been through two separate dogs in the past, one being a German Shepherd, the other a yellow lab and now I have a 9 month ole adopted/rescue dog named Lumi. She is part Dalmatian, and part terrier mix. I promise if she (the cat) was able to withstand both of those two dogs always wanting to play with her and nudging her, then I’m pretty sure she can tolerate any dog. She is, and has been a great cat. Also at my house, I have a covered with blanket/sheet ottoman/foot rest that I allow the dog and cat to climb in and sleep on that your animal is welcome to use. Dogs and cats both can bring so much comfort and joy in a time of need, and for me that’s what it was at first, but now I just enjoy their company, cute faces, being able to talk to them, and give them love. I love to take care of them and treat them as any animal should be treated, the correct way. I will treat your animal with as much love and attention as I do my very own, and look forward to meeting both human and animal!!!
About: They say that pets/animals know a good person when they see and smell them. There's not a pet home that I walk into and am not greeted with excitement after giving rubs and cuddles. I am currently transitioning to be a stay at home mom, but I would like to continue to help others in need. My days are flexible at this time. Between 8:00m-3:00pm and 4:00pm to 6:00pm on weekdays, I can move outside of the home freely. Times outside of the listed times, I need to be within my home. I havr a 9 year old daughter who is great with animals, and she will not be left with any unsupervised. I have a fenced in back patio and a semi-fenced in back yard. Animals are not allowed to be alone and off the leash if in the backyard exploring. They are free to roam around the patio and home if applicable.
About: I've worked at dog daycares for 3 years as well as pet grooming! I also plan on studying environmental/animal science soon! Animals are my passion!! Currently working part time as well as studying online! So I have plenty of open space and time to care for your fur baby! I walk each morning and love being outdoors! I have a large yard and plenty of land and a friendly neighborhood to walk your fur baby!! I can easily kennel pets and have experience in spoiling and corrective behavior!
About: Senior care, puppy care. I can do both! Bonus, if your dog likes to run, so do I! Medications no problem, clipping nails, no problem. I work full time, so I’m available evenings, nights, and weekends. I can house sit certain nights, can do drop ins any day of the week. I have worked with a variety of species. I have no issues with reptiles, rodents, amphibians, cats, and dogs etc. I am passionate about animal care.
“I always book with Freddricka when I need a dog/housesitter. She takes such good care of my dogs, sends daily photos, and reports. I never worry about my dogs or my house when she is sitting. 10/10 recommend.”
About: Professional belly rub-errrr , advanced training in squeaky toys, fluent in bark and meow and will make sure to say “ who’s a good boy/girl atleast 20x per visit .

I show up for home care to keep your pets routine with feeding , walking , expert cuddle delivery ! I accept all the judgement from your kitty and nothing but excitement from your pup !
About: I’ve always had a passion for nature and animals you can find me taking my dog out on a trail hike every weekend! I’ve had multiple dogs in my life and know how to handle a variety of breeds (border collies, terriers, and larger dogs.) Animals are angels in my eyes and I hope to be able to take care of your angel and give you peace of mind and a carefree day! I currently attend LSU, so my schedule fluctuates depending what my classes require or if I have a test scheduled or even acting performance. I’m highly committed to my studies in wildlife conservation and resource management! I prefer not to host dogs in my house due to being a college student, but the app requires a response to be a sitter.

The median cost per night for house sitting in Prairieville is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Prairieville
Outstanding experience. Ashley took wonderful care of our dog and cat as well as leaving our home cleaner than she found it! We got frequent updates and pictures of our furbies. In fact, she left a picture frame with lots of great pictures she had taken over our time away, all on her own volition. If she had a question, she asked. We, and the furbies, look forward to her next visit. Thanks, Ashley!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an absolutely wonderful experience with our dog sitter! From the very beginning, communication was top-tier, thoughtful, consistent, and reassuring without ever being overwhelming. I always knew exactly what was going on, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Daylen went above and beyond to make sure our pups were safe, happy, and well cared for, even keeping me informed about the smallest details (including a funny little mishap that she immediately communicated about — honesty and transparency like that is everything!). It was clear how much she genuinely cared for my dogs, and they clearly adored her right back. She was punctual, responsible, kind, and extremely professional. I felt completely confident trusting her with my home and my fur babies, and that says a lot. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter when I do not need her lol. Thank you for treating my pups like your own! 🐩🐩💙

FAQs for House Sitting - Prairieville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Prairieville on Rover is $26.75 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 352 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Prairieville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Prairieville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Prairieville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Prairieville 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
