Dog Walkers in Saint Martinville, LA

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life and have over 19 years of hands-on experience with pets of all kinds. I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats and have helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and basic care. I’m very dependable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet parents can feel confident knowing their animals are safe, loved, and well cared for with me. I’m currently available every day and have a very flexible schedule since I’m not working. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins. I’m able to accommodate short-notice bookings, extended stays, and customized routines to fit your pet’s needs. I have a fully fenced-in yard that provides a safe and secure space for pets to play and get exercise. I do not have any pets of my own, so your pet will receive my full attention. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in my home or yours.

About: I’ve grown up with 2 English bulldogs my whole life. I work at a dog daycare with every breed and size imaginable. I love animals I work park time at my dog daycare facility. But if you message me in advance I will make you and your beautiful pup my top priority! I currently do not own a pet but I always had my English bulldogs following me around my parents house so I’m always aware of my surroundings and making sure I didn’t step on them

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working in veterinary medicine for over 10 years and my passion for animals. I love them!! I am currently working full time but can provide care on the weekends and days that I am off. I am also willing to provide care on some weekdays as well if close to where I work. I care for my pets in my home by treating them as if they are my children. My fur babies are super spoiled. I have a fenced in yard and provide them with super quality care constantly especially with me working in veterinary medicine I am always on alert for any problems.

About: Hi! I’m a passionate and experienced dog lover with over 4 years of hands on experience working at a busy doggy daycare. In that role, I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Handling everything from playtime supervision and feeding to administering basic care and ensuring a safe, happy environment for every pup. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve grown up around them, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re my own with patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a reliable sitter, or just some extra attention while you’re away, you can count on me to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I’m comfortable with high energy dogs, shy pups, and everything in between! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I’m a teacher during the week, so my pet care schedule fits perfectly around that! I’m available in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays, and I have full availability on weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer. This allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency when their owners need it most. I have a dog of my own, but I live in an apartment, so boarding in my home isn’t ideal. My dog is friendly so play dates are definitely an option if you’re okay with it! I prefer caring for pets in their own environment where they’re most comfortable. In a client’s home, I always follow all provided instructions closely and do my best to keep your pet’s routine as normal and consistent as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any specific care needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress free while you’re away.

About: *Daytime Stays* • I will remain wherever the client chooses within the home. • I shall provide care for your pet. This includes potty breaks, playing, morning and night feedings, and lots of good belly rubs. • If anything else is needed for the happiness of your pet, I’m more than willing to accommodate given notice! *Walking* • I will stop in as often as you feel necessary and walk your pup. • I do not have my own leash, collar, or poop bags, so I would appreciate if there is one readily available for use. • Messes made by your pet on walks are my responsibility, and I will clean up after them. *Check-ins* • Coming to your home and allowing your dog out in the yard to potty is the first step in this service. • Playing with them after they come in from their potty break (and feeding them if it’s their usual time to eat) would be second on the list. Currently I am between jobs, so I’m looking to do Rover in the meantime! I’m dedicated to filling my week with taking good care of (hopefully your) adorable pet/pets! ***NOTE: Due to safety concerns, I am unable to offer overnight stays. However, I’m completely open to watching pets during the daytime and will gladly remain in your home with them while you attend work/school/appointments/etc. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience this may cause! I’m unfortunately unable to host pets in my own home due to my partner’s allergies, but I am more than happy to take care of your pet in yours!! I imagine they may already be on edge without you, so hopefully keeping them in an environment they know will make them as comfortable as possible. I can definitely kennel/crate pets as needed, and all walks are leash on - no exceptions. If you have a yard available, I’ll stay outside with your pet & actively watch them instead. Toys or treats are welcome, especially if your pet has favorites of either. If your pet uses commands or has routines you like to follow (ex: sit & stay before eating), then please just let me know!!

About: I went to school for animal health and behavior and I use to be a zookeeper. I know my stuff! Also grew up on a farm. I currently have 3 dogs who eat breakfast and dinner of real food that I cook everyday. I am well aware of proper nutrition as well as behavior training since three dogs can get easily chaotic if not handled properly. We play everyday and have sun tanning time for 2 hours. No matter my schedule we stay with there's! I have a fenced in yard and my dogs are trained not to run out any door. We have safe toys in a toy box that we check for broken pieces that may be ingested.

About: I have had a dog for 10 years, since I was 12, and she was a black lab and rhodesian ridgeback mix. She was a super energetic puppy and had to be played with and walked a lot. I got two cats at the very beginning of 2022 and I’ve taken care of them by myself since. I love playing with cats and giving them love. I will walk dogs at least twice a day, if not more. I currently work at Whole Foods Market and I typically work five days out of the week and work 7-2pm, and I will be home for the rest of the day. It will be super easy to fit the animals into my daily schedule. I have two cats to keep your animals company, but if your dogs don’t like cats then I will keep them separated. I will be walking your dogs at least twice a day, if not more. I will play with them as much as they like and I will follow any stipulations that the client would like to talk about.

About: I have over three years of experience as a groomer’s assistant, giving me strong skills in safely handling dogs of all sizes. I’ve also babysat many pets, providing dependable care, walks, feeding, and attention to make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well-loved. Because my job is flexible, pet care visits easily fit into my weekly routine. I’m able to schedule walks, feedings, and check-ins around my work, ensuring reliable, consistent care. I care for pets directly in the client’s home, keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all feeding, walking, and routine instructions, give plenty of attention, and make sure their space stays clean and safe.

About: Your pets aren't just guests; they are family. As a Veterinary Technician, I provide a level of care similar to having a pediatric nurse watch your children. My journey began at 18 as a bather and kennel tech, but my passion led me to work alongside some of the most skilled veterinarians in the field. ​Following the loss of my children’s father, Justin, I found myself at a crossroads, needing a career that allowed me to be there for my kids while still honoring my calling to work with animals. This led to my current mission: opening my own boarding facility in memory of Justin and my beloved rescue dog, Elsie, who stayed by my side from the day I met him until just days after his passing. ​When you trust me with your 'fur babies,' you aren’t just getting a sitter; you’re getting a professional dedicated to their health, happiness, and safety. I promise they’ll be wagging with joy the moment they hear my name!" I am currently not working due to conflicting hours with my children's school schedule. Therefore, I am flexible with pet sitting hours outside of school pickup/drop off times. As a person who has worked in animal health for a long period of time, safety is my main priority when it comes to your pet. I have done it all, from bathing pets to assisting in surgery. Your pet will always be in safe hands with me.

About: I have experience working in multiple veterinary clinics, which gives me a deeper understanding of animal health and behavior than the average sitter. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies and senior pets who may need extra patience or special attention. I’ve also been pet sitting and boarding for over three years, so I’m used to keeping pets comfortable, sticking to routines, and making them feel safe while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel loved and stress-free. I recently moved to Lafayette from Pineville, I’m looking for new clients. I am available any day of the week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they get regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I make sure they stay on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I can provide your pet with safety and a lovable environment while in my care. Their physical and mental needs will be met to my best ability.

About: All my life I have always had a furry friend and that love is more unique than any love you could get. One thing I live by is loving and treating every pet like they are my own and I have experience from new born puppies to helping with the needs of senior dogs/cats and everyday I am still learning. I am available most days out of the week as long as it is in advanced and can accommodate your needs. I’m available every weekend and holidays! I currently have 1 dog that lives with me but unfortunately will not be able to care for any at my own home. At your home I can work with whatever task you are given me and can be flexible if for example, told there is no fenced yard or if the pet needs to be kept outdoors.

I take pride in going above and beyond to ensure the happiness and well-being of every pet I care for. 🐾 I’m currently not working at the time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies while you are away! Let me know how many times they need to checked on at your home and I will take care of the rest! While you are away, I will be coming to your house to check on your pets as many times as they need.

About: Hi there! I’m Jerri Carson, a passionate animal lover and dog sitter excited to provide your furry friend with the care and attention they deserve. While I’m new to professional dog sitting, I’ve spent a lifetime around pets and know how important it is to give them lots of love and attention. I've cared for pets in my family and community, gaining valuable experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Professional pet sitters in my family are experienced and top rated.

My own sweet girl, a Brussels Griffon lived 16 years and was irreplaceable. In last years, I cooked her a special diet and gave her meds crushed in a few drops of local honey and a few drops of water when it became too hard to get her to take them any other way. She ate the cheese and spit out the pill!

About: Hello, Furbaby Parents!!! I love and treat my furbabies like human babies...and, to me, they are. A baby is a baby. They need love, nourishment, direction, and laughter and that is what your baby will get while at our home. 🐈🐕😍 I try to only keep 1 dog at a time, in addition to our 2. I find it helps ease any new pup's anxiety if only 1 new personality is added at a time...to our melting pot of permanent characters. Lol I know that it is difficult to leave your pet with someone new but I can promise you that they will be loved, cared for and treated with the utmost respect. And they will not be kept in a kennel unless specified by you! Our home will be their new vacation spot. I hope they love to play with cats! 🐈 All rates are negotiable depending upon the situation or circumstance. I'm here to help!! I am currently taking time off to stay at home so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I am available 7 days a week, anytime of day or night. I have a yard and 2 friendly pups to play with your baby. I also have kitties to keep your pup entertained. Nothing but excitement over here!
