“Denise has been patient with Willow Moon’s “work for my trust” attitude. She finally gave her the belly. I’ve been waiting for that moment. I definitely trust her with my baby, she is Willow Approved, and that’s not an easy approval to get.”

It has been such a relief having someone dependable and caring that can drop in on them and I don't have to be concerned about it! Thank you Jessie!”

About: I have taken care of both small and large pets, as well as aggressive breeds. I am also familiar with administering medicine to animals as I grew up with several pets that had medical needs. Additionally, in college, I fostered a dog for the first time. I absolutely loved the experience and it made me more familiar with rescue animals and their tendencies. Please keep in mind that I have a 14 year old Australian Terrier (like Todo from the Wizard of Oz) at home should you request boarding. She is very easy going with other dogs, but I kindly ask that other pets be the same. I am a college student who is currently home for the summer. I have a remote internship online and can be very flexible with my schedule in order to care for your furry friends! I understand that our pets are members of our families and deserve all the attention and care we can possibly give them. I take this to heart and do my best to ensure they are well cared for so that you may enjoy your time away, without worry. With that said, I am respectful of the fact that you are entrusting me with your pet and your home. It is my top priority to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe with the situation.

About: Hello, My name is Amber. I have pet-sat a variety of pups ranging from 1 year old, to 13+ years old. Growing up, I always had cats and dogs to love and take care of. Animals have always had a special place in my heart, especially Dogs. Dogs are caring, genuine, and compassionate creatures that I would rather spend my time with than most human beings. I work remote so I am always readily available to tend to your pups needs. I have a fully fenced yard and also 2 pups of my own to keep yours company. We have lots of toys and space for your pup to enjoy. I work remote so being available and home all day allows me the time to give your pup(s) the attention they need! This allows for flexible drop off and pick up times as well. I have a fenced in yard and also a pup who loves to play. If your pup is crate trained I have no problem crating them and following their normal daily schedules.

“I am so grateful to have found a sitter like Rhylie, she is so sweet and helpful with my dog! During the meet and greet she brought him some snacks and toys ❤️ She has done several activities like salt dough paw prints and air dry clay prints! My boy is a special case, he is very wary of new people and has some health issues, I trust that Rhylie’s attention to detail and overall love for animals will keep him safe during their visits. She also makes sure to send updates and keep me in the loop during their visits so I have no worries while I’m away from home. I will 100% rebook with her and am so happy to see my boy be so excited to see her when she visits 😊”

About: I’ve had animals of all kinds my whole life. I’ve volunteered at the humane society to walk big and difficult or hard to adopt out dogs and help get them adopted. I’ve walked Llamas and pigs and I’ve babysitting a sugar glider and pot belly pig, that’s the last thing unique sitting experience! My last dog was a bull terrier who lived to be 16 and he was my first baby. My current love is my 3 year old Merlegreat Dane names Zeus and he is a Completely hilarious pup! Bull terriers and Great Danes are a unique breed but so much fun and it brings me so much joy to be around animals and help them in anyway. We also have a hedgehog named Tiger Lily and two chickens Daisy and Fluffy butt, free range. Love my little crew! I’m a stay at home mom and a retired Marine veteran. I have nothing but time during the week to help out and possibly weekends depending on the date and time. I can crate them if need be, walk, play, feed, bathe and watch over your pet drop off at doggy day care or play at the dog park if they’re up for it! I’m experienced in large strong breeds as well as tiny little guys!

About: Most of my experience comes from owning and caring for my own dogs. I'm comfortable with the everyday responsibilities of pet ownership and understand how important it is to stick to routines, provide attention, and make sure our pets get the care they deserve. I'm an animal lover who's spent most of my time caring for dogs, and I know just how much our furry friends mean to us. Pets aren't just animals; they're family! I want every pet I care for to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I'm available on weekdays and weekends and will do my best to follow your instructions and your pet's usual routine. I just ask for at least 24 hour advanced notice I'm happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, and doggy day care in your home. I will take the time to respect their individual personalities, whether they're playful and outgoing or prefer a little space. I'll treat your home with respect and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away.

About: I have had pets in my life ever since I was little. So I love helping take care of them. I also am very good with puppies and teaching them new tricks, and helping with potty train. I also love helping keep dogs very active, or just chill with them and cuddle! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of free time. All days of the week are good for me. I’m even available on weekends if needed. I have a fenced in backyard. I also have a dog of my own, who loves to play with others and gets along with all sizes. He loves to share his toys or just play together. Or if it’s in your own home, anywhere your fur baby loves to play! I also have dog parks around for your baby to play with or without others, and a nice neighborhood to walk around. Or we can walk around your neighborhood as well!

Rebecca is absolutely amazing!!! This is the third time I’ve booked with her and I will continue to do so! The love she has for my fur babies absolutely shows and she is so good with them. Especially with my specifically shy kitty, she has been so patient with her that she now comes out to see her, she only does that with me! She also goes above and beyond in doing things I didn’t request, such as taking out trash, sweeping/vaccuuming, washing the kitty bowls. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Katherine took the absolute best care of our Spud!!! She was so attentive to him and followed every note I left behind as worried fur mom leaving her baby for the first time. They seemed to have formed a great bond which makes me extremely happy as well. Even with the challenges he presents walking (because I know we still have work to do with him there) she was able to cope and face them wonderfully. She even paid attention to my cat when he was not necessarily her responsibility to look after and I can not thank her enough for her service!

I’ve been using Kiersten for a couple of years now, and I can confidently say she’s been amazing every single time. She is reliable, consistent, and truly cares about the animals. During her visits, she makes sure each pet gets the attention, care, and affection they need. It’s clear that my animals genuinely love her, and that peace of mind means everything.

Our sitter was friendly and quick to respond, which I appreciated. However, some important tasks were missed, such as refilling the cats’ water fountain (which was found completely empty when I got home) and cleaning around the litter box. Visits were very short and at inconsistent times without communication, which made me anxious while traveling.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pretty Bayou

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pretty Bayou is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 323 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pretty Bayou. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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