“I feel very fortunate to have found Rebecca. There’s no other way to describe my dog other than special needs, and he was content comfortable and peaceful with her. It was such a blessing.! I booked her up through the holidays👍”

About: I have been surrounded by animals all my life as my parents are huge pet lovers just like me! With this, I have had a lot of experienced taking care of many different pets in my household including fish, turtles, bearded dragons, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. I am a college student where I am able to create my own time schedules for classes. I have made my classes spread out in times where I have hour breaks so I can go check in and let out any animals. I also have no weekend priorities so I am always available to care for your animals. Dogs- I have always owned three dogs at a time in my home so I am very educated on what they need. I make sure that my dogs food bowls are filled and they eat multiple times daily, I take my dogs out 3+ times a day and provide playtime and cuddles of course! Cats- If the cat likes its space I will be sure to respect your animal and only go up if they would like. Like dogs I will feed the cats when necessary. Bearded dragons- I own a bearded dragon myself so I know what is necessary for their care and I do not mind doing extra work. I take my bearded dragon a bath once a day and let her soak for shedding. I provide a lettuce mix with vegetables and lastly I give either crickets or worms. Birds- If the bird is playful and not aggressive I am comfortable with taking the bird out and letting it roam around with caution. If not, I will just feed and provide water when necessary. Turtle and Fish- These are simple pets to love as I just need to feed them daily! Guinea pigs- I am completely comfortable with loving these animals and am comfortable handling them. I will feed and clean as necessary.

“Chuck is the best! He really dedicates his time to make sure your pets are attended to. He literally spends more time with our dogs when we had him than we do. Thank you so much Chuck for being there for our boys!”

About: Hello! My name is Travis, I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and taken care of plenty. I’m especially good with senior dog care, I have a 15 year old dog myself. I’m good with giving medicine and shots, and love taking dogs on walks. I mostly deal in contract work and am currently not on contract, so I have plenty of free time and am available almost always. I’m flexible and can accommodate any schedule. I have three dogs at home, and every dog I take care of I’ll treat as my own. I understand how important our furry friends can be and want to make sure every pet gets the care they deserve.

About: All the Doggies sleep with me in my bed! They are allowed on furniture & anywhere they’d like to be comfortable. I worked for Companion Animal alliance in Baton Rouge working with dogs & cats as a caretaker. I mobile groom for people around the Livingston parish area & I’m well known on the nextdoor app. I have a bunch of references! I am very passionate about your fur babies & one day will open up my own business building for grooming/boarding & as new clients you would be adding to my fund for that. It has been my life long dream to accomplish this one day & I am going to keep working towards that. I want to expand this business into something much bigger & for people to feel at ease with leaving your babies in the care of someone who will love them unconditionally. All you have to bring for your baby is their dog food/cat food. I have dog/cat bowls, leashes, toys, puppy pads, litter boxes, litter, cat toys, cat/dog beds, ( I supply dog treats ) I do not put the babies in kennels unless instructed to do so by you if you bring your own. At bed time I put on relaxing music for the dogs to calm down & sleep, heating pads for cold nights, lots of blankets & beds. Any of their comfort items I would suggest bring with them. I do live in a new trailer, lots of room for your babies to roam & play! non smoker. I have experience with large dogs to small dogs, senior dogs & ones with bad anxiety or kennel aggressive ect. I also have experience with birds, especially parrots. I know how to handle in any situation when it comes to different behaviors from animals. I am also pit bull friendly 💕 The babies I board/doggy daycare have FREE ROAM. Which means they can go as they please anywhere in my home, they can sleep with me or they can sleep on the couches or their beds, but If you prefer your baby in a kennel at night, I will respect your wishes. I only have one kennel designated just for that.. You will receive lots of pictures/videos & updates to the point where it may be a little annoying but you’ll never have to text me first checking on them. I give them lots of love! I stay home everyday with the babies, so they will get all of the attention they need. The night before pick up/drop offs, I do give them a bath, each one no matter what. I can pick your dog up or drop them off, I have never had an issues with any dogs fighting, running off or accidents. I am VERY experienced in RUNNERS, the ones who wait for you to open the door to escape. Never had a runner succeed in getting away. I can clip your babies nails & give them a little trim if need be free of charge. If your dog needs medication I can administer it to them at the times needed. Prozac, prednisone, insulin, antibiotics ect, I’m familiar with all. Thank you for taking the time to read this & hopefully you have found the right sitter for your baby/babies. 🐶 I bring the babies to the dog park twice a week along with water treats & toys. I can manage 5 at a time ( leashed ) I do have a fenced in yard with a doggy pool, it’s covered & has pet turf. Lots of room for your baby to play!! This is what I do for a living! I eat breathe & sleep doggies. I stay home full time & when I say full time it’s me & the pups home everyday. I LOVE & taking care of your 4 legged sweetie pies, when you book with me it will allow me to continue to care for the fur babies & accomplish my life long dream to open up a bigger place to care for more. 💕 I truly appreciate repeat customers, but with inflation the way that it is, the cost of gas being so high, I had to make the difficult decision to raise my prices up to $2 more since last year. I understand if you choose to look elsewhere for services, but I hope that you choose to continue to use me. & for new clients ❤️ I have a small male dachshund that gets along with animals & kids very well! I am 100% committed to your pets to make them & you comfortable with my services. I treat my clients babies just like I would my baby!

“Megan sat with my fur babies for 7 days in my house while we were on vacation. She texted pictures and communicated through out the week. Having her take care of my dog and cat in their own home was a blessing and definitely helped with having less stress being away for so long. When I did get home, Roux and Salem looked healthy and happy.”

Cimdy R.

“Chloe took such good care of our Gracie girl! She communicated well, sent pics and left our home in tiptop shape after housesitting for several days. We were delighted to find she went above and beyond - washed all the linens she used, picked up poop in the yard and covered our hot tub when the cover flew off unexpectedly. Our pup seemed very content and loved when we arrived home. Highly recommend!”

“Claire took such great care of my two very big dogs! I needed someone who would be able to stay in my home with them and she brought her two incredibly well behaved smaller dogs with her. Our dogs got along great. She kept my dogs company and maintained their feeding and walking schedule so well for the week I was gone. I received pictures daily of what fun they were having. She also cleaned up after herself completely and show great care and respect for my home. I will 100% ask her next time I need someone to come stay with my fur babies! I could not recommend her enough!”

About: At tia ale's house , your fur baby is not an animal or pet. They are part of our family... not only will they be loved and cherished (that is a given) but also we will try to enrich their curiosity and animal nature!! (depending on their breed & preferences) fetch, walks, bubbles, and sniffing activities will be part of our day! as well as snacks and fresh ice cold water. Your fur baby will have a vacation away from home at Tia ale's house. I have plenty of time for their care, entertainment since I’m home 24/7. We would get up early in the morning and exercise then mind stimulation during the afternoon. Bed time would be from 7-9 pm depending on how tired your fur baby is. I have a fenced yard, and cameras around the house. We also have a nice backyard that gets sprayed every 3 months for fleas and bugs.
