“Stephanie was the best!!! My pups seemed totally chilled and happy when I got home after being gone for almost a week. I would definitely use her again!”
“I cannot recommend Anyu highly enough! Her exceptional care and the love she has shown Nala have been truly heartwarming and a blessing throughout this time. Sadly, I will be relocating for work, but I wholeheartedly encourage anyone seeking outstanding care to connect with Anyu. I only wish she could move with us—she is simply the best!”
“Sydney was a breath of relief. She was on time, very efficient and when we returned home, my babies were not anxious as they were on kennel stays. Even my kitties ate their daily allotted food. All seemed very comfortable while we were away. Thanks to Sydney.”

“Jaime was a wonderful pet sitter. We really appreciated her attention to the dogs and the efforts she took to make them comfortable. She was prompt and caring. She went above and beyond what we asked of her. I would definitely use her again.”
“This was our first time for Jaden to take care of our four legged crew. She was very accommodating with excellent communication. Our furbabies were of course happy to see us, but also acted as though we were coming home from any other Saturday outing and for me, that is the true test 😊”
About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.
About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity
“The very best I’ve ever had. Buddy was not only well taken care of but she sent many pictures and videos so we knew he was happy. Also ,not expected, but happy with she kept the house picked up and it was neater than when we left. We highly recommend. She cares about the animals she stays with and it shows. I think Buddy misses her. We mean that”

I am here to keep your dog active by taking them on walks, throwing a ball/frisbee, or just keeping them company while you are away. I am currently a student at Belhaven University as well as a member of the softball team. I am available most early mornings, late evenings and sometimes overnight if needed. I will spend time outside with your dog to keep them active wether that be walking down the road, going to the park, or playing in your backyard. I will also keep them company in the comfort of their own home while you are away.
About: Specialties: - Helping senior pets thrive - Caring for exotic pets and their enclosures - Supporting specialty health, diet, and exercise needs You love your pet, and it’s my job to make sure they get the level of care they need while you’re away or at work. Boarding and Daycare Availability: Spots available as soon as 10/13 (pet must be dog-friendly, house-trained, and vaccinated) Drop-in, walking, in-house play date availability: Interview around specific needs required In-house, over-night sitting availability: Interview around specific needs required As a remote worker with flexible hours, I am always happy to make room in my schedule for pets whose families are invested in their joy and well-being. The care I offer is unique to your pet and their needs!

My preference whenever possible is to get your pet setup for care here, so I can spend as much quality time as I can with them. But, I am always happy to be flexible for pets who need to be in their own space when their families are invested in their care and comfort.
About: I’ve spent my entire life around animals! I’ve cared for cats, dogs, fish, lizards, birds, you name it. My dad is a veterinarian so I grew up learning about pet care, how to administer medications, the do’s and don’ts, etc. I feel so lucky to do what I love (taking care of furbabies) AND help pay for my degree😉 **My Schedule** I’m free every day of the week for house sitting and charge $45/night. I’m also free every day for drop-in visits but only charge $35/visit. I’m only available Saturday and Sunday for walks and charge $25/walk. I work 8-5 during the week, but I am able to leave for an hour during the day to check in. I’m somewhat flexible and can make schedule exceptions if necessary! **Safety** I take all animals safety very seriously! I make it a point to be cautious about all toys, objects, and food items pets may encounter around the house. As I mentioned, my dad is a vet, so I have experience with sick and injured animals. If your furbabies have special needs/requirements, be sure to let me know! **About Me** I have two kitties, Ollie and Luna, and love them both so very much! I hope to one day have dogs again but I currently live in a smaller apartment. My partner and I love to take them on walks in their stroller & backpacks. I love to craft, hike, paddle board, and play pool! If you have any questions, please feel free to message me💖 I currently have 2 cats that I take care of. I feed them each and every day and I clean their litter boxes constantly because even cats can be a tad messy sometimes! I play and cuddle with them everyday and make sure to show them lots of love! When taking care of anyone’s pets & fur babies, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, & have enough toys to play with! When pet sitting, I of course check to make sure they have necessities like food, water, & treats (if allowed). I, myself, have pets and worry about them feeling lonely or missing me. I make it a point to treat anyone’s pets like my own. Which is why I always make sure to give lots of love and sit and spend time with any pets I get to visit with!
“We were thrilled with the attention and care Maddie gave our three dogs while we were on a week long vacation. She kept us updated on all of the pups and sent pictures of them during our trip. She has a very good personality and the dogs warmed up to her quickly.”
About: I’ve always believed that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat like they’re my own. Whether it’s a long walk, a good game of fetch, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Right now, I have a very flexible schedule since I substitute teach some weekdays, but I’m often free during the day and evenings. Weekends are wide open too, which means I can give your pets plenty of attention, long walks, and quality time. If your pet is on a routine, I’m happy to match their usual feeding, potty, and play schedule so things feel familiar and stress-free for them. I know pets feel safest in their own environment, so when I care for your dog or cat, I keep their routine as close to normal as possible. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and patient, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Whether you need someone for daily walks, weekend check-ins, or house sitting while you’re away, I’m here to help.

FAQs for House Sitting - Shreveport
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Shreveport on Rover is $29.97 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 107 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Shreveport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Shreveport walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Shreveport maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Shreveport choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
