About: I got my first dog when I was 16 which led me to learning more about dogs! When I moved out I decided I wanted a puppy of my own and I have taught her how to sit, stay, and lay down. I have researched breeds and their behaviors and would love to take care of your babies so that you can be stress free when you have to leave! Iâm currently working part time and getting off of work around noon which gives me plenty of time to play with your pups! I am able to provide a flexible schedule and work with you as best as I can! I allow my fur baby to run freely in my home whenever I am home! We play fetch and practice tricks and she gets many treats! I will keep your dogs happy and healthy throughout their stay and continue the routines in your home!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and lifelong experience with animals. I grew up in a pet-friendly home where caring for animals was part of everyday life, so I understand the patience, attention, and compassion they need. Iâve also sheltered and cared for pets until they were ready to find their forever homes, giving me experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and needs. I currently work part-time so I have a lot of time and space for pet sitting! Iâm available throughout the week & weekends as well. I provide a clean, safe, and cozy home where my pets can feel comfortable and cared for. From soft, comfortable bedding and a welcoming environment to engaging playtime and fun-filled activities, I make sure every pets receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while youâre away.
About: I have years of experience working with animals. I have volunteered in shelters and have been pet sitting for years. I can take care of many types of animals, no matter if theyâre furry or scaly! Training, medicine (no injections) or extensive playtime are all acceptable! My schedule is flexible. I have open availability and can work around tough schedules. If you have any questions about my schedule, just ask me! I will treat your pets with the utmost love and respect. I will follow any rules or schedules you have to the letter. Lots of cuddles and playtime will be given freely unless it is not you or your pets wishes! I have a lot of patience and can deal with anxious/aggressive animals. Pet sitting is my main focus right now. I keep my schedule flexible so I can do whatâs best for you and your petâs needs! I always ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible. I want them to feel safe and secure while I am in their home. I will give as much attention or space as needed.
âBobbi was pleasant and on time. This was a meet and greet. My Fenway was as expected.. aggressive and unfriendly. She politely asked questions and we talked. Overall went as expected. Will continue to try and work with her.â


âBritany was great! Very considerate and communicative. She was very thorough during meet and greet and was open to learning new skills, such as taking care of our water fowl đŚđŚWe will definitely book again.â

âElizabeth was wonderful. Couldnât ask for a better person to sit with our Blackie. Those two bonded beautifully. She kept the house pristine and did extra things like watering our plants. We plan on using her services again whenever we are planning on being away. We highly recommend Elizabeth!â

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. They love me and I treat them as if they are my own child. I have three Australian shepherds and they are my whole world. They are so energetic and keep me active so being active with your dog is no problem. I am available any time as I work from home with a flexible schedule. Iâll be able to give your baby my full attention. Just let me know when you need to look after your baby I love taking dogs for walks or even car rides. Love playing fetch or whatever your dog enjoys doing. I also have a crate to crate your dog in if needed.

About: I've been around animals big and small my whole life and have always had a soft spot for them! I've dog-sat for friends and family and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I've also bred dogs, so I'm comfortable with the extra time, patience, and attention that young animals need. I work in healthcare and love to give back to people and their furry friends! I currently live in an apartment where I'm not able to have pets of my own, so Rover gives me the perfect excuse to spend time with animals while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I'd love to treat your pets like my own while you're away! I currently work until 3:30 in the afternoon leaving plenty of time in the evenings to care for your pets! I am also available weekends! I am willing to work around my schedule to make the most of my time when caring for your pets! I have house, animal, and baby sat for many families in their homes. I will respect your animals and your home with the same care as my own. I will abide by any request to make the most of my visits. I am easy going, and will work with you to make this the best experience possible!
âThe dogs love Grady and we love him. Always takes care of the house and the pups the way we would take care of them. We feel lucky to have him be our pet sitter!â

âMaxyn was super communicative and sent so many photos and videos of Piper and their adventures throughout the day. I could tell Piper appreciated all of the love and romping around they got in to. Thanks again, Maxyn!â

Please contact me for accommodations

âKendall was awesome! She went above and beyond for us during her stay in our home with our golden retriever Jax. She stayed over the Halloween weekend and helped with trick or treaters, while also making sure our Jax wasnât too anxious. She let him sleep in bed with her like he does with us and showed him lots of love. She is super friendly, thorough and trustworthy. The home was clean and kept up very well while we were gone and she kept us in the loop whenever she needed to step out and leave him for a bit. We will definitely be booking with her again and would recommend her.â

About: Iâve always adored pets since I was young. Iâve had many in my life from cats,dogs,and rodents. I know animals are equal beings that need treatment with special accommodations. This requires patience which is almost unlimited for me.i currently have three cats that Iâve owned since they were 3-4 months old theyâre now 6. I just got rats a few weeks ago theyâre girls 6-8 months old. I believe everything follows a routine dedicated to them and I have no issue aligning myself to these routines. Iâm still finishing high school at the moment and I have a job. But besides managing those Iâm available weekdays after 4 if Iâm not scheduled to work, weekends any time I keep my babies inside as much as possible. Theyâre allowed to free roam outside since theyâre used to that lifestyle from before. They wear flee collars, jam is allergic. I cleanse them with daily grooming and anima safe wipes or soap if necessary. Theyâre fed 2-3 a day with half a cup or less of cat food I do plan to change their diets eventually. When it comes to other peopleâs pets I treat them with nothing but love and care and always stay considerate of whatever the owner says I should know about that animal. Iâm extremely against cruelty brand products so I will avoid associating or using them.
About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

The average cost of House Sitting in Slidell is $52 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Slidell walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Slidell 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Slidell 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitterâs cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, youâll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
