Dog Walkers in Taft, LA

About: My family and I have fostered and adopted injured/disabled dogs in the past so I understand what it takes to care for special need animals. I also have a senior dog and so I know the steps needed to care for an older dog(s)! I do not work and therefore have a lot of time to take care of your pet(s)! I have the time to play, walk, and do whatever you deem necessary for your pet’s health and wellbeing! When pet sitting, your furry companion will get so much love and attention, and they will get as much play time as desired and as many walks necessary! They will be fed appropriately and given medication if necessary! All rules will be followed and your house will be well respected.

About: Growing up I was always surrounded by animals, giving me to ability to learn how to care, accommodate and adapt to their needs! I've taken care of a variety of different animals from reptiles and fish, to cats and dogs, from small mammals to even live stock! Pet care services is what I do for my living so my days will always be surrounded and centered around your babies, in whatever means necessary. Picture and video updates of your littles will always be shared with you and the time I spend with them is completely up to you! However much time you need to ensure your babies are receiving the love, care, and attention they need, I will be there.

About: I love animals and have cared for friends’ pets whenever they’ve needed a trusted dog sitter. I’ve also fostered dogs for Take Paws Rescue, from young puppies to senior dogs, which has given me experience with pets of all ages and personalities. I treat every animal with patience, love, and attention, the same way I would want someone to care for my own pets. I recently stepped away from my full time job and currently have a very flexible schedule with open availability. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and consistency throughout the day. I currently have three rescue dogs of my own, a Doberman puppy, a two year old Doberman, and a small mixed breed. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Because of my own pets, I prefer caring for animals in their own home where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I always treat every pet with patience, love, and care as if they were my own.

“Ayanna was such a wonderful person to have walk our dogs while my mom was away. One of our dogs takes a little time to warm up to people but after a day when she realized Ayanna was there to help her, she gladly joined her sister in their daily walks. It was great knowing they were in good hands! Thanks you, Ayanna!”

About: I’ve been walking and caring for animals since I was a young child, so I bring a lot of hands-on experience and confidence in handling pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to keep them safe, happy, and well-exercised. I’m currently working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I’ve developed strong time management and organizational skills that translate well into pet walking and training. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be available during key times of the day for walks, check-ins, and consistent training sessions. Since I’m already accustomed to planning my day around routines, I’m able to reliably incorporate pet care into my schedule while maintaining a high level of attention and consistency. This flexibility also means I can accommodate client needs more easily and provide dependable, attentive care for their pets. I provide a safe and trustworthy environment by prioritizing consistency, attentiveness, and clear communication. Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I’m able to closely monitor their behavior, comfort, and safety at all times. My experience working with animals since childhood has taught me how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and respond appropriately. I also maintain a clean, organized space and follow any specific instructions from pet owners regarding routines, feeding, and training. Building trust is very important to me, so I make sure to communicate regularly with updates and ensure each pet is cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine attention.

“Jessica is 100 percent reliable and trustworthy. She is super sweet and treated my boys with kindness, love and treats. Thank you Jessica !!”

Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)

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 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.

About: I’ve spent over 15 years pet sitting regularly and in recent years, I’ve been a traveling pet/house sitter. I have thirty plus 5 star reviews from the Trusted Housesitters platform, as well as references which I’m happy to share upon request. I worked as a vet tech assistant and kennel technician at a Rio Del Mar Pet Hospital in Aptos, CA for 2 years. I was a stable care taker, at Little Paddocks Farm in Yorktown, VA for 7 years.

I will happily take care of gardens and bird feeding as needed. My schedule is flexible, I base my schedule around pet and house sitting.

About: Hi! I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me! I know every dog has their own personality and needs so I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them most comfortable. I’m available for dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, and sitting/general care. If your dog isn’t feeling well or needs a little extra attention I’m patient and attentive to their needs. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. Whether your dog needs exercise, company, or basic care while you’re away I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I work part-time and have a flexible schedule which allows me to plan time for your dog’s needs. Whether it’s dog walks, feeding, potty breaks, or check-ins throughout the day: I can be there! I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely! I make sure they are fed on schedule, get fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe for the pet. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.

About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.

About: Pet sitting is more than just showing up. It's about making sure your animal feels safe, loved, and at ease even when you're not there. Growing up, animals were always a huge part of my life, from cats and dogs to guinea pigs and turtles. That early experience gave me a huge love for pets of all kinds. Your fur baby will be in caring, attentive hands. You can travel and go about your day knowing your pet is genuinely looked after, not just watched. I recently moved back home to Louisiana from living in Denver, Colorado for the past 5 years. With my schedule being so open and flexible, pet care fits naturally into my day. I am able to give your pet consistent attention, timely walks, and plenty of quality time without it ever feeling rushed. Safety and trust are two things that I will never compromise on. When I'm in a client's home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would give my own. I want both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing their home and their animal are in good hands. I take thorough notes on routines, preferences, and any special needs so nothing gets overlooked. I always make sure the environment stays safe, comfortable, and familiar for your pet.

About: I have worked in veterinary clinics for over two years and I currently work as a veterinary technician at an animal shelter. I’ve also house sat for a number of clients with animals that required frequent care and attention. I also offer nail trims and baths, including medicated baths if necessary I have just recently moved to Louisiana and I look forward to meeting as many clients as possible to hopefully build a relationship. I would like to be your go-to sitter! My number one goal is to make owners comfortable while away, knowing that their best friends and fur-children are in good hands while also ensuring that your home is well taken care of. I have years of experience and multiple return clients that can back this up! Also, my veterinary experience allows me to administer medication effectively as well as special treatments if it is needed.
