Kaylee was such a delight! Shady looked so happy in all the photos she sent me, and she made sure he took all of his allergy meds the whole stay. She kept me informed and updated about him all weekend and I had peace of mind my whole vacation knowing my baby was well taken care of. I will definitely be calling her next time I go out of town!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple ages and sizes. I follow schedules to a tee, feeding amounts, treat allowance, etc. I even have a friend on call who works in a veterinary office if ever needed. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday from 9:00am-4:00pm. I don’t work weekends unless necessary, but not often. I would let you know ahead of time or not accept on those weekends. I usually spend my free time doing school. I will follow your schedule to exactly how you wish it be done. Including the usual wake-up and bedtimes that they’re adjusted to, so that they’re not getting off of their usual schedule with you.

Katelyn was great with our Babybel! We were worried about traveling without her, due to her old age and anxiety, so allowing her to stay at home while we were away gave me such peace of mind. Katelyn spent the weekend at our house with Babybel, and took very good care of her. She also sent multiple pictures letting us know she was a-ok. She kept the house clean, and we definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a good house/dog sitter! We will use her again!

In addition, family members have trusted me to pet sit many times over the years. I also happen to be a certified and experienced educator so you can trust me with your home and with your pets.

About: I’ve cared for and helped train over 1,200 dogs, both personally and through professional dog training work here in Baton Rouge. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and from tiny lap dogs to large working breeds, I know how to make every dog feel safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I am confident with strong or reactive dogs. Located in the Coursey / Sherwood area. My Services & Experience Include: -Dog Boarding in a comfortable, clean, climate-controlled home. -Dog Training in Basic Obedience - I can train your puppy or problem child. -High Energy Dogs - I am experienced in making sure they are entertained & exercised, with Jogging, Agility or Puzzles. -"Aggressive" Dogs - I am patient, resilient, & confident around "higher risk" dogs. -Dog Walking & Drop-in Visits, keeping your pup exercised and entertained. -Puppy Care & Potty Training Support. -Senior Dog Care - gentle handling, medication reminders, and mobility assistance. -Grooming & Bathing - I can offer baths, nail trimming, or simple haircuts & shaves. -Experienced Handler - I have worked with over 1200 dogs & I'm quick to learn each dog's wants & needs, ensuring they have exceptional care & stimulation. What Your Dog Can Expect: -A large fenced backyard for safe playtime. -Walks around enclosed private neighborhood. -Park trips (BREC parks) if you approve. -Consistent mental stimulation and affection. -A calm, structured environment tailored to your dog’s needs. -Sleeping in bed with caretaker if vacancy is available. Why Book With Me?: -Years of professional training experience. -Getting to Know Each Dog - Dogs are my hobby, & I take great care in getting to know each animal on a personal level so they receive the best attention possible. -Flexible pick-up & drop-off options - I strive for 24/7 service & response. -3 dogs of my own.

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: I’m an LSU graduate living in Baton Rouge. I volunteered at an animal shelter in New Jersey for 6 years, and for 5 months at CAA in Baton Rouge. I have the animal’s and your best interest involved. I have patience with dogs that need it, but can reinforce behaviors that you’ve already implemented. Because of my full time job, my schedule may vary week to week. Walks, playing, and some grooming are all apart of the service. Large dogs don’t intimidate me since I have a Great Dane Pit mix back home. At the end of the day, my goal is to make the owner and the pet happy with the services provided to and for them every week. I currently travel for work, but am based out of Baron Rouge. I’m available sporadically, but I’m usually available for 1-2 weeks at a time. I currently have 2 cats, no dogs, but grew up with them. I would prefer to know if pets are to be crated, favorite spots in the house, etc. Your home is your pet’s safe space, so I want to make sure I’m not intruding

I can not speak highly enough of Savannah! We left our babies for the 1st time with someone that wasn't family and we left for 10 days. Savannah came right in and cared for them like her own. My Bruno doesn't really like anyone and he loves her! I would definitely get Savannah to watch them again, in fact, we've already talked about our next trip! 😁
