House Sitting Treme' Lafitte

About: I've never known life without animals! I've been responsible for pets from a very young age: from gerbils, to cats and dogs, to squirrels and goats, my circle of friends and family have always committed open homes and hearts to furry friends. Every stage of life, every shade of personality, I resolve to provide love, care and accountability. My personal dedication is boosted to professional assurance, as I am a long term caretaker at Mid City Animal House Daycare and Boarding. My part time work schedule is flexible, and I'm almost always in pet care mode since it's what I do! I am available for most services, from dog walking to house sitting, and if your pets would be good roomies with my pets, I am open to boarding on a case-by-case basis! I am comfortable caring for multiple animals at once, and following owners instructions with a keen eye. I am comfortable administering medications, special care instructions (i.e: elderly or special needs animals) and giving walks and baths. I am generally comfortable in unfamiliar places, maintaining a calm energy, respecting property and taking great care to give pets the attention they need in the absence of their owners. If you are interested in boarding with me: I currently provide a loving home to 2 cats and a dog. They are friendly, curious and well socialized with people and other animals. Dot, our boxer-collie, is especially good with dogs, cats and small children. For safety, we are able to easily separate pets either by partitioning/gating off rooms where they can maintain comfort, or utilizing the large dog crate in the front room where your pet will not be sequestered all by themselves, but still have a space they feel secure. I have no allergies, aversions, or phobias. I communicate well and will happily answer questions and provide references.

“Amara did an excellent job caring for my senior dog while I was out of town. She was able to give him his medication every day and keep him on his regular schedule. I cannot recommend her enough and will be booking with her for future pet sitting needs.”

“Katie took great care of my pup, and communicated perfectly.”

Jonathan S.

“This was the first time leaving my pup alone, but Cheryl eased my mind every step of the way. Not only were my babies clearly well cared for, but she left our apartment in better shape than we’d left it. Highly recommended!! She definitely went above and beyond!!”

Liz D.

“Daphne took great care of our dog, who can be slow to warm up to new people. She was very flexible when we had a flight cancellation and made sure he got an extra walk since we were coming home later than planned. We arrived home to a happy dog (he got lots of exercise!) and a clean house.”

Colin G.

“Caitlin did great! I left her quite the challenge, a 5 and a half month old terrier mix pup rescue that loves to nibble:). She managed to take good care of my fur baby (updates every day with pictures to boot!) AND looked after my house while I was away in Alaska for over 2 weeks! She has a big heart and is extremely trustworthy. If you need someone to go above and beyond with your pet look no further!”

Adam R.

“This was the first time using this service for me. I was very apprehensive and worried about leaving my dogs. I have a 13 yr old senior who has hind leg issues and is slow to get around. I was so worried he wouldn’t do well if I left him. I also have a high energy, excessive barking dog. She wears a humane bark collar but I was worried it wouldn’t work or she’d still be super hyper on it. Jamie reassured me that it was working great and there were no issues. Jamie gave me text and picture updates and completely alleviated my fears and worries. She takes great care and is very compassionate with the animals and the owners. I would recommend her to everyone and definitely hire her again.”

Emily J.

“Shelby was great! I was a little worried leaving my dog for a week because he usually stays with family/friends. Shelby sent me daily updates and pictures which made me much more at ease and I could enjoy my trip. He got daily walks/activities when it was extra rainy. She was very responsive and stayed in touch when I thought my flight would be delayed, she was available to continue watching him if needed. I would 100% leave him with Shelby again.”

Carson M.

“This was my first time ever using Rover so I was a little hesitant in having someone stay overnight at my house and watch my three dogs but Caroline did an amazing job. Caroline sent pictures of the dogs multiple times a day with updates of how they were doing which made me feel very comfortable. She also left my house extremely clean when I got back from my trip. I would definitely rebook Caroline to watch my house and dogs and definitely recommend her!”

Norman S.

“Melissa took great care of our dog Luna while we were out of the country. Luna took to Melissa right away during our first meeting with her and we felt very comfortable leaving Luna in her care. Will definitely use Melissa’s help again in the future!”

Riyaz S.

“Joel was an awesome sitter for our pup. He was quick to respond and went above and beyond. Our dog was happier when we returned than with any other rover we have used. Will re-book him in the future!”

Cameron S.

“Catherine took great care of Maggie! She sent loads of photos and videos and Maggie was having a great time in all of them. I came home to a sleepy pup + some of Catherine’s excellent homemade dog treats. I cannot recommend Catherine highly enough!”

Nicole W.

“Elizabeth exceeded all of our expectations!! I was very nervous about the whole process but as soon as Elizabeth came over for her meet and greet with us and the pups my worries were diminished! Elizabeth is so kind and patient and SO good with our fur babies. She sent several photos every day we were gone without me even asking! And was so communicative the entire time. We will definitely be rebooking and I know my pups will be at ease with her and so will we!”

Sarah S.

“Bianca was amazing! She stayed with my pup, Jane, for 8 nights while we were on vacation. I was able to relax and enjoy the trip knowing Janie was in good hands. Bianca sent a couple updates per day including pictures of their time together. I came home to a clean house and a happy pup. I will definitely be hiring Bianca again in the future.”

Christine E.

“Macie watches my Lulu regularly, and is always wonderful with her. She keeps her company, gives her meds, and sends me photos. I will always rebook with Macie!”

Dalma B.

“Ian did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my dog and cat. He sent pics and updates everyday! It really put my mind at ease to have updates like that. I will definitely be rebooking him again!”

About: I have experience taking care of dogs since I can remember. I have a dog myself, and she is the friendliest girl, her name is molly. She loves friends. Additionally, I have experience crate and home training dogs. I am accommodating to all dogs. I would love to take care of your dog as if it were my own! I am currently post-grad, and have plenty of time to care for your dog. My services are available all week. I can take your dog on as many walks needed. I live in an apartment complex with plenty of space for them to sniff and play around. I will also provide your dog with designated play time to keep its mind stimulated. Any additional request needed can be accommodated as well! I value communication, so I vow to listen to your dogs and your needs and meet them accordingly! I live in an apartment. I do not have a specific designated yard, but I do have plenty of outdoor space for your dog. I have one dog myself (medium sized), she loves friends and can’t wait to be great company to your dog. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own. You name the need, and I will meet it.

“We had a great experience with Stacy sitting our pup Archie in our house over the holiday! Stacy was super responsive and took the time to understand Archie's habits and routine in the house before booking. We loved getting frequent updates and pictures while we were away, we know Archie was getting lots of love and exercise, and we came home to a happy pup and a clean house!”

“I had her pet sit my 2 cats while my boyfriend and I were away. She sent me pictures and followed my instructions really well. I was REALLY happy to come home to 2 healthy and happy cats and I DEFINITELY look forward to using her services for my next trip! ?”

Morgan C.

“This was our first time using Rover for our new dog. Everything was very professional and the app was easy to use. Chloe was great and gave us daily updates and photos during our time away. We will definitely use her again!”
