Cat Sitting in Saint Gabriel

About: I’m currently a second-year veterinary student with several years of hands-on experience in animal care. I began working in veterinary clinics at 17, where I assisted with patient care, treatments, and monitoring. I’ve also volunteered with shelters and nonprofit organizations, participating in spay/neuter and vaccination events and helping care for animals in a variety of settings. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and handling pets with patience and care. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit, feeding, or a walk, I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’m a veterinary student, so my schedule varies slightly, but I have consistent availability for drop-in visits and dog walking throughout the week. I’m typically available mornings, evenings and nights, depending on the day, and I try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific care needs. I take the time to observe each pet’s behavior and wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate updates so you feel reassured while you’re away. As a veterinary student, I’m trained to notice early signs of illness or discomfort and respond appropriately.

“Katie was awesome as always! We booked her for a drop-in this time and she made sure Toast got all of her energy out by playing in the backyard, fed her, and gave her medication as instructed. Toast loves it when she comes to visit!”

About: I am super loving and affectionate towards animals. Your pet will be in great hands with me. Whatever your pet's needs are, I can surely promise to take the best care of them, getting fed, walked, bathed, take medication if needed, or extra loves and cuddles while your away, I am able to provide. I have an 11 year old daughter who also loves animals and is in school full time. I am currently a stay at home mom so my scheduale is very flexible and I'm looking to earn extra money to help provide for my daughter. No matter if your pet is big or small, I can assure you that they will have a good time with me and be well taken care of:) I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am a stay at home mother and I am lucky to have alot of help with taking care of my daughter, so any time of the week, Monday-Sunday, I am available. Depending on what environment your pet lives in, I can assure you that I follow any rules that are given to me by my client, whether its for walks on a leash, being in a crate or being off leash in a fenced in back yard. I also send lots of pictures and updates to keep you informed on how the days going with your pet, what we did for fun, feeding and bathroom breaks, any input that is given, I will make sure to follow up on.

“Professional. Kind. Listens. Fun personality.”

“Kacey was amazing dropping in on our cats for 2 weeks while we were away! She followed instructions perfectly and the cats loved her (even my shy older lady) and she helped me out with a couple of things around the house seen as we were gone so long which was so nice of her. She’s so reliable and gives great communication. Will absolutely book her again!”

“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She asked a bunch of questions early on to understand my dog's needs and kept me informed of concerns that came up during the drop-in visits. I highly recommend her as a sitter, especially if you have a large breed dog. I will definitely schedule her for future drop-ins.”

“Great communicator! Loved all the pictures and videos. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone who is looking for a great caregiver for your pets.”

About: I’ve had the privilege of making animal care my life for the past 30+ years. I’ve worked at 2 zoos, a wildlife preserve and now I pet sit full time. I love meeting new pets and their parents. My main priority is ensuring your animal is comfortable and safe while you’re away. I strive to give peace of mind to any worried pet parents. 😊 My favorite activities with your Furkid include enrichment with toys, fetching, dispensing treats and rubbing backs and bellies. I can medicate, give insulin and prepare special diets. I’m also trained in animal first aid and I excel at following directions. Animal care is all I do. I can do daily walks/visits up to 3 times a day. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights. I have a number of clients in the Baton Rouge area with different pet care needs and I make my own schedule. I stick to their usual daily routine or follow whatever instructions are left. I like to keep a consistent visit/feeding/potty time. I have a lot of patience and will encourage your pet to socialize with me. We can do whatever they like, play with toys, take walks, eat treats, rub backs or just sit together. I also water plants, check mail/paper and keep a general an eye on things.

“Myra is wonderful! She was punctual for drop ins and made sure my fur babies were cared for during my absence. I highly recommend Myra- her service is unmatched….we will definitely book again.”

About: Before Rover 👵🏻 I would get recruited as a kid to watch my relatives’ pets while they were away. In college, I would house and pet sit for my boss and coworkers. I have two cats, but have a very soft spot for pups, too. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for walks during the day/ evening and for house sitting or check ins. I will treat your baby like they’re my own! I know they get sad when you’re away, so I am available for extra love and keeping things as normal as possible.

“Johanna was great! Reliable, kind and calming. She sent several pics a day and it appears our pup was well cared for while we were gone, which was such a weight off our shoulders! Would love to have her as a sitter again in the future.”

“Sarah took such great care of our feathered babies while we were on vacation, sending updates every day. Will definitely book with her again in future.”

About: I’m comfortable helping out with your Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs… possibly other animals, just shoot me a message! My family, friends and neighbors have trusted me for all of their pet care needs and hopefully you will too! My hours are flexible at the moment. I’m available for pop in visits for feeding, walks and/or outdoor play time too. I’m super patient and don’t mind spending a little extra time with the needier fur babies. My cats are beyond spoiled, so don’t feel bad about what you may think are silly special requests. I completely understand. I’ll treat your fur babies like they were my own.

“Carlie was very kind and flexible with our timing. Charley was perfectly cared for!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and truly love getting to know every pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I provide patient, dependable care tailored to their needs. I know how important it is to feel confident while you’re away, so I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication routines, crate routines, and any special instructions to keep things consistent. You can expect plenty of updates and photos during visits, along with lots of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable with me—and for you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in caring hands. Dogs thrive on routine, and that's exactly what I can offer! My open schedule allows me to seamlessly integrate dog walks into your pet's day. Because I'm flexible all week long, we can create a customized walk schedule that perfectly fits your pet's needs and your busy life. When I am at the clients home, I make sure the pet is taken care of through routine walks, feeding schedules, and of course play time!

“Amanda is the absolute best! If you need a good pet sitter, I highly recommend you use her. She watched our cats while we were away, and they loved her. I never had to worry about anything because she sent great updates and pictures. She is so attentive and helpful. You and your pets will be so happy that you found her. We will definitely be using her again and recommending her to everyone we know.”

About: I have had animals all my life so training comes easy to me especially house training. All they want is to be loved and I am happy to do just that I have a full time job during the week but looking for other work I am more passionate about. I am only available after 6pm week days and the weekends at the moment I have 3 dogs and a cat at the moment. I would prefer for the animals to stay in a familiar place so not to disrupt their routine

“Margaret was the absolute best! The pups have been struggling with us being gone and she did an fabulous job of making them feel loved! She went above and beyond to check in with me and them! Cannot recommend her enough!”

About: I grew up with with at least 2 dogs (from chihuahuas all the way to Great Danes). I love going to the dog park with my pups and running around the yard with them. I also have experience in dog grooming. My family is in the process of renovating their house, so I unfortunately don’t have the space to board any animals, but in the next year I will have the space to board 5 animals. In our family our dogs aren’t pets they are family. I’d love to have the opportunity to get to know your fur babies and have play dates with my fur babies. Thank you for your time, and I can’t wait to get to know you and you fur family!

“Katie did an outstanding job, showed up on time, took care of my kids well. Did everything I could possibly ask for. Highly recommend her!”
