House Sitting Riverland

“Hayley is incredible! She communicated quickly and sent photos with updates on my Jellybean! I will definitely use her again and wholeheartedly recommend her.”

Dianne D.

“Lincoln was amazing! He stepped in for us at the very last minute after another sitter canceled, and he truly saved our trip. He took great care of Cash & Milly, kept us updated, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy pups and a well cared for house. We’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

Madison M.

“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: 📢 bird & exotic pet owners!!! Hey I’m Jess! 👋🏼 I am a full time veterinary 🩺 student with over 10 years of veterinary and pet care related experience. The last 4 years I have worked primarily with exotic animals and all kinds of birds, and I am very comfortable with husbandry, handling, feeding, and medicating. I currently have 3 cats of my own, but I’ve always had a dog in my life up until my chihuahua passed away a couple of years ago. As any dog lover knows, a loss like that is devastating, and it has been hard for me to get another dog. Until then, I have been enjoying spending time with other people’s dogs! I can do dog walking, drop in visits, pet/house sitting (though I am unable to stay overnight), and even specialized care for your exotic animals if need be! Favorite dog: spicy 🌶️ chihuahuas Favorite exotic: Guinea pigs 🐽 Favorite 🦜 bird: cockatiels Full time veterinary student and that usually means I’m in class from 8am-3/4pm with studying all evening. If you have a lazy pet or an inside only creature that wants some company in the evenings, I’m your gal! My ability to provide mid day walks in addition to evening walks or play times are limited to my schedule. I am unable to provide services at my home because I rent. I will of course ensure that your house stays tidy and clean while caring for your pet!

“Johanna was great with our two dogs. They got to stay in the comfort of their home and made a new friend! Would recommend her to any one and will use her services again!”

About: Hey everyone. My name is Benjamin. I just graduated from University of Louisiana at Lafayette this past spring with a bachelors degree in Informatics - Interactive Media Technology. I do have a full time job working at Home Furniture Company with an IT Tech team. I am still fairly available after work and on weekends. I have a brand new 2020 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec, so I am very reliable when it comes to transportation from A->B. I love all animals. I currently have 2 cats, 2 rats, and 1 leopard gecko. My dog is still in NOLA with my parents. His name is Beignet and is 13 years old. He is a Maltese-pomeranian. My favorite dog breeds are German Shepherds, Pitbulls, and border colllies. My favorite fat breeds are siamese and tabbies. I was walking a German Shepherd consistently for over a year and a half until Covid hit. Don't worry, I am vaccinated. Reach out if you think I'd be a good fit! I currently work full time 8am-5pm, but am still fairly free after work. I am usually free on the weekends unless I am out of town visiting family in Nola. I currently have an apartment with my significant other. We try not to have other animals inside since we have 2 cats. But I am always open to going to a client's home to take care of an animal.

“Nick watched our 2 dogs and gecko for a few days and we had a great experience! He was so professional and very responsive while we were gone. The house and all the animals were very well taken care of and we would highly recommend Nick to anyone!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover! I wasn’t able to have pets growing up because of my families allergies, but that didn’t stop me from treating my neighbors and friends pets like my own! I’ve had plenty of experience taking care of dogs from dachshunds to mastiffs! I also love cats and volunteer at CAA regularly. I know how important it is to make your pets feel safe and loved! I’m currently a full-time student at LSU! My schedule is very flexible outside of classes and I have plenty of time for walks, playing, cuddles, or just company. I’m more than happy to work with you to create a routine for your pet. Your pets safety and happiness is my responsibility and top priority. I will always follow your instructions, respect your pets space, and make sure all their needs are met. I’m happy to send pictures, videos, and updates often so you can check in!

About: As a veterinary student, I have experience handling and caring for animals through veterinary school, clinical experiences, and shelter volunteering. My training has taught me to pay close attention to an animal’s behavior, comfort, appetite, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and caring for pets that may need a little extra patience or attention. While pet sitting is not a substitute for veterinary care, my veterinary background helps me recognize when something seems unusual and communicate concerns quickly with an owner. Hi! I’m an LSU veterinary student with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. As both a veterinary student and pet owner, I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pet while you’re away. My veterinary training has given me experience with animal handling, recognizing changes in behavior and comfort, and administering medications. I provide attentive, individualized care and make sure owners receive regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. As a veterinary student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I’m very intentional about only accepting bookings that I can fully accommodate. I plan pet care around my class and school schedule to make sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I’m generally available for evening care on weekdays, with additional flexibility throughout the day depending on my class schedule. My weekends tend to be more flexible. I’m happy to coordinate with each owner to maintain their pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and medication routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a veterinary student, I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice anything unusual. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine and your specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household safety. I also understand that every pet has different boundaries, so I take the time to build trust and allow them to interact at their own pace. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your space with respect. You can expect regular updates and plenty of pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾

About: I am a design student at LSU. Beyond my 7 years of experience in pet care, I grew up with and took care of 4 dogs, 2 cats, fish, and a lizard (his name is peanut). I love keeping owners involved, so you can expect photos, updates, and little moments from your pet's day while you're away. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am currently a full time student at LSU. However, I have a flexible schedule so I will be able to work around that commitment. After years of caring for pets, l've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away.

“Syndey was so great with our animals! I will definitely be contacting her for future sitting.”

Let’s Meet! Send me a message anytime to arrange a meet & greet — I’m happy to make sure you and your pets feel comfortable before booking. I wake up around 6:30-8:00 AM most days and get right to work caring for the pets. Everyone is let out in backyard, or leashed up for a walk around the block. Pets are diligently cared for. Usually this consists of at least 3 walks per day, a visit to the park, and plenty of backyard time. I spend all day with the animals, leaving only for a personal errand or visit to the store. Each animal is analyzed carefully & fit into proper schedules according to their personality, levels of energy, and socialization. I provide a secure, fenced-in yard and individual kennels for each pet’s comfort and safety. Dogs start their day around 6:30–8:00 AM with a 10 to 30-minute walk, followed by supervised backyard playtime and snacks. Kennels are used only for rest and feeding—pets spend the majority of their day active, social, and engaged. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, whether that includes frequent park trips, light obedience training, short backyard outings or bathing. My goal is to ensure every animal feels safe, loved, and enriched in a clean, well-maintained environment.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. Having grown up around animals and cared for pets for family and friends, I’m comfortable handling different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand that every animal is unique, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel happiest and most comfortable. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Whether that means sticking to a specific schedule, providing extra playtime, or simply offering companionship, I always strive to create a positive experience for both pets and their owners. As a recent high school graduate, I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m able to give pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and make your pet’s well-being a priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also keep the home clean and tidy, follow any specific care instructions, and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and easy to communicate with, keeping me updated throughout her stay. It was such a comfort, knowing she’s a vet student, especially because Athena has epilepsy. I felt completely at ease, leaving Athena in her care. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Anika is the BEST! She made all my babies feel comfortable and took excellent care of them. She sent me a lot of pictures too! That really put my mind at ease - seeing how happy they were and knowing that Anika was there for them when I couldn't be. I 100% recommend Anika to anyone who is afraid to go out of town and leave their babies.... she is the best and your babies will love her!”
