Dog Sitting in River Ridge

About: My family and I have fostered and adopted injured/disabled dogs in the past so I understand what it takes to care for special need animals. I also have a senior dog and so I know the steps needed to care for an older dog(s)! I do not work and therefore have a lot of time to take care of your pet(s)! I have the time to play, walk, and do whatever you deem necessary for your pet’s health and wellbeing! When pet sitting, your furry companion will get so much love and attention, and they will get as much play time as desired and as many walks necessary! They will be fed appropriately and given medication if necessary! All rules will be followed and your house will be well respected.

“Caroline is awesome. I will definitely book her again for our future needs. She treated our boy well. I love the daily pupdates and images. I've never seen a bigger smile on his face lol. Thank you Caroline!”

“This was my first time using the Rover app, and Nicole was amazing. She came over a day early to meet my dog, Jake, make sure they got along, and pick up a key. They immediately hit it off, and she went above and beyond while I was out of town. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, took him on car rides, and even let him visit with her pups, with my permission of course. Jake was more sad watching her leave than he was excited to see me, lol. I highly recommend Nicole and will definitely be using her again!”

About: For over 10 years, I’ve been the trusted pet sitter for friends and family. My duties are basically stopping in to make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, and most importantly, feel cared for while their humans are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, tossing a favorite toy, or just keeping them company. My experience is mostly with drop-ins and walks, and I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and making pets feel safe and happy in their own environment. I work full time, spending two to three days in the office and the rest working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule. During the week, I’m available for afternoon walks and early morning or evening drop-ins. On weekends, I can do drop-ins up to three times a day and am available for walks at almost any time. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always start by checking the space to make sure everything is safe and clean, just in case there was an accident or something seems off. I make sure they have fresh water, food, and a treat if it’s part of their routine. Depending on the pet’s needs, we’ll either head to the yard or go for a walk around the neighborhood. I approach every visit with a calm and nurturing energy, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed around me. Building trust and creating a peaceful environment is always my priority.

“Emily was absolutely wonderful. Friendly, communicative, and reliable. My go-to cat sitter from now on! Also, as an added bonus, the photos she sent me were amazing! She is a great pet photographer!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles, you name it, I’ve had at least one! I’ve worked as a professional dog walker when I lived in Boston, dog walked and house sat while living in Austin, and currently care for pets of neighbors, friends and family. I’m an uber driver with open availability to come swing by whenever needed! I am up early in the morning, and go to bed late at night! I’m centrally located, so I can be to your pet in minutes! I take caring for pets very seriously. I love to provide a loving and caring demeanor while being quiet and patient. Animals need to trust their caregiver, and I find it very important for the pet to know they can rely on me to care for them. Having a dog that requires a lot of care and extra watching, I like to treat all pets as if they are my own

About: Nothing, I'm just a regular guy that dogs&cats know is a great person. I give off good vibes only. This is an opportunity to learn about pets in general and meet new people. Open to negotiation on a price we both can agree on. If you're a fan of anime, I'm your guy. Easily. I've fallen on hard times and am learning new skills currently. Which makes me available all the time. All day every day. Always available essentially. I like to be secure. Always lock the door before leaving the house. I’m a 2nd black belt in Taekwondo, blue belt in BJJ, and have practiced Muay Thai and Judo, and am a decorated wrestler. If it's a big dog I am sitting and anything happens we will become a tag team in perfect sync. The 2nd thing is organization and cleanliness. I despise clutter, hate leaving a mess. My greatest offer is security when I watch your pets and your home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats of all kinds for 4 years now. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and extend love to their pets. I enjoy meeting new pets and adapting to their needs. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! As a senior in college I also have an open schedule that allows me to offer my care! I have a fenced yard and one dog that not even close to harmful. I also have two cats that live a life of their own and cause no bother to anyone. Anything that is requested can certainly be met.

“She took such great care of Moonpie!!”

“Kate did an excellent job of checking in and ensuring my senior and 10-month old cats were OK while I was away on a trip. Would definitely book her again and recommend her services.”

About: I worked as a full time teacher during the week, but I am a full time pet lover at all other times of the day. I am willing to learn and grow with your pet and their likes and dislikes. I have owned pets all my life, from horses to cats to sheep and pigs, but dogs and I really connect with each other. I am a total dog lover. I have 2 dogs of my own who love to meet and play with other pups. Request any info necessary to increase how comfortable with your dog with me. I look forward to meeting you and your dog whenever you book. Thanks in advance for everything!! Full time dog sitter with other part time work such as dog walking. Working on school as well, so I have time to give the dogs full attention. The dogs I sit have the same things I give my dogs such as treats and comfy spots to sit and nap. I have a porch for playing as well.

About: I have a calm demeanor that appeals to all sorts of animal personalities. In the past i’ve volunteered with Zues' Rescue and I’m generally the go to pet care friend :) I’m a school counselor, so during the school year I am available after school and on weekends. During the summer, I am available 24/7. I can make exceptions if I am on PTO, holidays, etc. I make sure to observe an animals natural routine. Where they like their toys to be, their food dishes, etc. I am especially understanding of animals who may have experienced trauma and have triggers; I make sure to meet them at their level when I approach, speak quietly, etc.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life growing up! I got my first on cat (Katniss) as a freshman in college, and she is now 12 years old and thriving well! I got my first dog (Albus) the next year and he is a 106 pounds black lab who is also doing very well. I am a teacher so I am off from June-July 20 all day, every day. I can show up on short notice and stay for extended periods if needed! My schedule for the next 2 months is extremely flexible, and I’m willing to work with your schedule as well! I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I’m very experienced caring for multiple pets in a home environment. I have a condo in Metairie a block from the levee where I can take a dog on a good walk, and my parents house in mandeville with a fenced yard where pets can safely play and get fresh air. I can easily crate your dog or cat if needed, follow any specific feeding, medication, or routine instructions, and provide plenty of love, attention, and enrichment. Whether the service is at my home or yours, my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

“As always Caitlin took good care of Lola while we were out of town. She made sure to feed her and take care of cleaning out the litter box. Lola also received plenty of belly rubs and pets in our absence.”
