“Kenneth watched my dog nova for a day and overnight when I went to a Mardi Gras parade and I can’t be more pleased. First off it was last minute and during Mardi Gras nonetheless so it was very challenging to find someone, Kenneth made it easy and responded to my request almost immediately. I was able to drop nova off and felt like I left her in good hands. Kenneth sent me lots of videos and photos during his time with nova which was also super appreciated. And finally when I was an hour late picking her up because I lost my keys and had to wait on a locksmith, he didn’t mind. Overall if I could give 6 stars I would and if I need a dog sitter in New Orleans again I know who to ask. Thanks so much Kenneth!”

About: Hello. My name is Emma! I know how stressful leaving your pets can be and how important it is to have someone you can trust. I chose to join the Rover community because I have always loved dogs and miss having one in my own home. In the past I had both a shih tzu and a German Shepard. I have fostered many dogs and puppies in the past through TakePaws Rescue in New Orleans. I have experience with both boarding and walking dogs. I like to be active and spend time with animals. I would love the opportunity to help you and your pet. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends. I typically work early morning until early afternoon but have all afternoon and evening free during the week! I’m completely free during the weekend to care for your pets! I am happy to care for pets in my home! I have a fenced in yard and am happy to keep your crate here. I have a young son who loves animals and would love to play with yours. Also, happy to travel and stay in your home.

About: I have always taken care of animals my whole life. I’m a true caregiver, putting the animals needs above everything else. I also work from home, and have a flexible schedule to give the best individualized care to each animal. I set my own schedule during the week, which allows me to spend real quality time with your animal. I work from home, and I have flexible availability. I pay close attention to the animal’s needs. I make sure they are entertained if they need to burn off energy, and have water and a comfy spot if they need to rest. I have decades of experience taking care of all different types and ages of animals with special needs.

We were so nervous leaving Charlie for the first time, but Stacy was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped Charlie off, Stacy was incredibly warm, professional, and attentive. We received daily updates and photos/videos, which instantly put our minds at ease. It was clear our pup was being loved and cared for just like family.

Brie was absolutely amazing! 🥰 From the moment I dropped him off, she made me feel completely comfortable. She kept me updated throughout his entire stay with pictures and sweet text updates, and I really appreciated knowing how he was doing. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding with my early schedule and even worked with me when my pickup time changed. That meant a lot and made everything so much easier. He seemed to have such a great time with her and was clearly comfortable and happy during his stay. You can tell Brie genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave him. ❤️❤️❤️ I would definitely recommend Brie to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust. I’d absolutely book with her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our experience with Lori was great! This was our first time ever leaving Gunner. We were very anxious but Lori and husband love for dogs was obvious from the first meeting. Although it was new being away from us, he was taken such great care of by them. We will be using them again for sure! We appreciate the loving care provided for Gunner. Thanks Lori!

Cindi has an obvious love for animals and took great care of my dog in her home. We received daily photos and updates, and Cindi made our time away less stressful knowing our dog was in good hands. Her dog, Zara, became my dogs new best friend and my dog was so sad to say goodbye when we picked her up. Great dog sitter.

Parnay was absolutely amazing with my pug, Zeke. From the moment we connected, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful he is with animals. Zeke was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Parnay kept me updated, treated Zeke like his own, and went above and beyond to make sure all of Zeke’s needs were met. It’s obvious he has a natural way with dogs and truly understands their routines and personalities. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust Parnay again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and exceptional pet caregiver. Thank you, Parnay, for taking such great care of Zeke! 🐾

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.

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 .

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
