“Tango loved his stay and had so much fun. Nolvia took great care of him—she is amazing and provides daily updates, including pictures. Tango also made a new friend with her dog, Marisol. We will definitely be booking again. 😊”
“Regan was amazing! She sent pictures throughout Oliver’s stay. He came home tired so I know he had plenty of fun! I highly recommend Regan and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Brenley and his family took great care of our dog while we were gone for two weeks. He sent many updates and made us feel at ease being away from our boy. We fully plan on using them again”
“My 2 poodles had a stay for the weekend, I was nervous since this was their first stay but Rachel assured me everything will be fine and it definitely was! One of my dogs got a small injury when dropping off and she was quick to jump into action and take care of it!! She kept me updated with daily pictures throughout their stay. My babies have a new best friend with Raven and can’t wait to go back!! I highly recommend her and her services & will be using her for future stays!!”
“Aja was fantastic with Doodlebug. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves and understands animals. She was reliable, communicative, and treated Doodlebug like family. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total piece of mind while we were away. Doodlebug came home happy and clearly had a great time. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook with Aja, she is an asset to Rover.”
“This was our first time using a sitter for our Peanut. Lauren scheduled a meet and greet before our trip to see how the dogs got along. All went well at the meet and greet. During Peanut's stay, Lauren sent numerous pictures and updates. We will definitely use again!”
“Booking with Teresa was the best decision I ever made! She’s the sweetest and took the best care of my Jackie! You can tell that she genuinely cares for dogs. She even took the cutest pictures of my pup! Definitely book with her if you want to be able to have confidence that your pup is having the best care!”
“Rufus seemed at ease and his usual self when I picked him up. Stacey had his bedding and his food (and Rufus) ready to go home when I arrived. I phoned her while I was out of town to check on him, and she told me how he was doing, his appetite, etc. Will definitely use the service (and Stacey) again.”
“I am so grateful for Randy. He took such great care of Willis and sent pictures frequently. Randy was also very accommodating when I asked if William could stay another day as my flight was delayed 3 different times! I would highly recommend Randy for future pet sitting needs.”
“Anna was the perfect person to care for our girls. Puppies are hard. Two puppies are even harder but she Rocked it. I wrote instructions for her and she followed them to the ‘T’ even using our ‘command words’. She even set in the floor cuddling them during a storm to calm her fears I will definitely use her again.”
“Oh my goodness words can't describe how grateful I am for Amy. I love how she took care of my baby like he was her own. I received pictures and updates several times a day. If you are in the area and need a sitter for your baby please contact her. I don't want to share her because she is so INCREDIBLE but I will lol.”
“Courtney and Don were absolutely wonderful! They took great care of my pup, and they were flexible when my plans had to change which I appreciate greatly. Would love to use them again!”
“Damaris and Jose were the perfect hosts for our dog, Rocky. They are both very loving and caring people and have a love of birds and animals. They fulfilled Rocky’s needs for twice daily medications. Their fenced-in yard and walks to a local park took care of his outdoor visits. They sent photos on a daily basis. We knew they were the right people during our meet ‘n greet. Rocky came home a very happy dog and we will definitely use Damaris and Jose again.”
“Iryna was incredibly sweet and nurturing to our cats, Ziggy & Roux! Her communication with me throughout their stay with her was impeccable. We hope to work with Iryna again!”

We will definitely be calling on Ellie again in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10 years old and have over 15 years of hands-on experience. I’ve cared for my own cats as well as those of friends, family, and neighbors, including kittens, senior cats, and shy or anxious cats. I know that every cat has a different personality, so I take the time to earn their trust and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to feed, refresh water, scoop litter boxes, play, give plenty of affection (if they want it!), and keep you updated with photos and messages. I treat every cat as if they were my own and will make sure they receive the love, patience, and care they deserve.
About: I recently adopted a cat 2 months ago and she has become my world. I feed her wet food daily and administer vitamins daily also. I clean her litter box daily. All cats deserve clean living spaces just as we do. Cats are very attached to their owner (even if some don’t act like it) and I would love to be that person to love on your baby while you’re away!
About: I’ve always had animals, and naturally fell into helping others take care of their own. My experience with reactive dogs has also shown me how, despite seeming scary at first, they deserve the same love and care as any other furry friend. I work Monday-Thursday, and can dedicate 3 full days Friday-Sunday to taking care of pets. Im an early riser, and am happy to take a job any time between 5 AM and 7 PM. I realize letting a stranger into your home to care for your pet requires a lot of trust. I like to establish your ground rules and have an open line of communication with pet parents.
About: All of my cats are well provided for and taken care of. The four of them have 2 litter boxes that hook into the plumbing that only need to be looked after once a year. I am well versed in those systems if you have them but can also do the old school scoop and dump if that’s what you’re asking for. ❤️
About: I have grown up with dogs before I even had a conscious mind. I have loved dogs and animals in general my whole life. there is nothing more that I would like to do than make an animal feel taken care of. being always surrounded by animals at various ages has given me plenty of different experiences- for example, taking care of a dog with seizures, cancer, diabetes, and more. I have dealt with dogs with high anxiety and managing to keep them at a calm state but I have also dealt with dogs who have more aggression and have learned ways to calm them as well. I truly do have a love for animals beyond anything else. I genuinely enjoy any time I can get with them. there is a 100% guarantee that if there is an animal at someones house..I'm with it. I am looking forward to taking care of everyone's little animals (their children) and providing the best care not only for the pet in need but for the owner to feel reassured that their animal is in good hands. I am currently working four times a week but being able to take care of fur babies has been something I have been wanting to do for the longest time!! so although my schedule can be tight I'm willing to work around it when I can. I used to have three dogs in total in all different sizes. I took care of my dogs as if they were my literal children. at points they were probably too spoiled but I couldn't help it! I always made sure my dogs were fed and went out my way to find the best food that would suit their individual needs. two of my dogs were super anxious especially during any type of storm and I never turned them away, I was willing to do anything to make them feel safe. even if that meant sleeping on the floor or some nights not getting any sleep. more often than not I out my dogs first! one of my dogs loved walks so therefore I took him (and still take him) own a walk everyday and let him take as much time as he needs. I don't believe in hitting or yelling at any animal/using any form of aggression. I am a very empathetic and compassionate person. I am not quick to anger I'm only quick to solve whatever issue may be at hand. and my most important goal to create the best experience I can for the animals and owners.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs (every age) for basically all of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pups! I will also be accepting cats in my schedule! I’m a dog daycare attendant, but I still have some spare time to care for and play with your pets! I’m currently available for drop-in visits and walks, and on certain occasions, house sitting! My books are open; I look forward to hearing from you and meeting all of your sweet babies! I currently do not offer boarding in my own home, but I will have my own establishment in the near future for this reason. As far as the comfort of your pet goes, I will always go above and beyond to make sure I’m meeting their needs and more!
“Gwendolyn was great with our animals, and we have a variety of different animals. She was very reliable and we felt comfortable leaving our boys in her hands. We will definitely use her again.”
About: I am currently in pre veterinary school, and a vet tech for the last year. I have training in animal care, emergency care, special needs pets and animal behavior's. I'm currently doing my school work from home, so I am home 24/7 minus the occasional walk if weather permits or an errand I may run. I have a nicely sized fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs who get along with everybody and are completely up to date on all vaccines. I also have a spare room separate if need be where i spend most of the day, so your pet would never be alone.
“Alicia took such great care of our cats. I loved getting the photos and daily updates. Alicia was so attentive to our cats, very dependable, and had great communication. I highly recommend her and will book with her in the future.”
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats, the occasional hamster, growing up. I love animals! I’m from the south and have come across all types of puppies (including gator pups) I have no problems in gaining new friends :) I am currently free lancing in artistic endeavors and having a friendly pet would help with the time I’m at home needing a little company and a less… talkative version than human conversation! I love animals and have experience with all types! (I’m from Louisiana so I mean ALL types) including the senior doggies ;) I have a closed in front patio with a little nature-esque ground for quick potty breaks and just to sunbathe when the need arises. I take walks often and live in a neighbor hood away from a busy strip so I can keep pets safe and exercised!
“Eryn was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all our directions and kept us up to date the whole time. She was patient and loving with our crazy animals and we are so grateful to her. We will absolutely use her again!”
About: History of dog ownership for 10+ years Experience with dog sitting for 4 years and some dog training as well, medication administration, providing daily exercise. Clients have been long time residents of my area and can recommend me for their pet care needs. Very trusting when leaving me with their pets. Always willing to do overnight stays when needed to watch the pets and their home. Provide light to moderate cleaning. Good with keeping up consistent training as requested. I'm currently working at home and have time for playful pet care. I also have a pup who's friendly and would love a friend to hang out with! I have a fenced yard and supervise all play time. In client's homes I watch closely and am always nearby to supervise. I offer light housework and pick up of any messes made by your pup.
About: 20+ years of personal dog care experience. Expert in dog-walking, giving medication, and play. Available any time and available for overnight dog/pet sitting. I love all animals and would love to be part of your pet's daily activities and walking sessions! I'm a recent graduate, and I'm doing this for fun and for extra cash on the side. I'm familiar with the New Orleans/Metairie area, and I have my own vehicle, so I'm reliable and can be utilized on short notice for those who have last-minute meetings/errands that pop up. Please feel free to reach out to me for any other questions or concerns. I'm excited to meet you and your pet! I'm an active person so going on long walks are not an issue! On my days off, my schedule is completely open to walking your pups, hanging out with them or just checking in on all your cats/dogs. I love all animals, so they will get plenty of attention and hugs when I visit. Very detailed oriented, so if you have meds or special diets that need to be given, I’m more than comfortable with those requirements for the furry friends!

About: Hey y’all, I’m Holly! I’m a full-time dog sitter, boarding host, and obedience trainer living the farm life just outside the city. About 15 years ago, I traded the hustle and bustle for more space, privacy, and a dog-centered lifestyle—and now my partner Isaac and I have built our home around exactly that. We offer boarding and daytime playgroups in a secure, home-based setting with the amenities you’d expect from a large boarding facility, but with the comfort, attention, and personal care of a private home. Our farmhouse sits on a securely fenced acre, giving dogs room to safely play, explore, decompress, and enjoy their stay. Dogs are truly life here. In addition to boarding and training, I serve as the Program Director of a New Orleans-based dog rescue specializing in high-medical-need dogs. Because of that, I’m very comfortable administering medications, injections, fluids, specialty diets, and handling dogs who need extra patience or experience. I also have trusted veterinarians on speed dial should anything urgent ever come up. I have extensive experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from feral strays and high-drive working breeds to seniors, puppies, tiny Poodles, nervous dogs, and everything in between. Baths, light grooming, crate routines, structured play, and special care instructions are all no problem. Basic obedience training packages are also available for dogs who could use a little extra polish during their stay. You're welcome and encouraged to take a look at our reviews - we pride ourselves on giving stellar care! If you’re looking for a safe, experienced, dog-savvy home where your pup will be treated like one of our own, we’d love to welcome them! I board dogs professionally from my home, so caring for them is part of my everyday routine — not something I squeeze in around another job. During the day, I run supervised playgroups in our secure yard and rotate dogs based on size, age, energy level, and personality. High-energy dogs get room to play, seniors get a calmer pace, and shy or sensitive dogs are given time to settle in comfortably. Everyone receives structured playtime, potty breaks, meals, treats, rest time, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. Our farmhouse sits on 3.5 securely fenced acres, tucked away from busy streets and set up with dogs in mind. This is a dog-centered home with plenty of space, toys, enrichment, and safe areas for both play and rest. Dogs are always supervised and thoughtfully matched with appropriate playmates. I take introductions, group dynamics, feeding routines, medications, and individual needs seriously so every dog can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during their stay.
About: I work from home during summer months. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including feeding, walking, basic care routines, and ensuring their safety and comfort. I am comfortable with: * Small, medium, and large dogs * Feeding routines and medication reminders * Leash walking and basic behavior management * Maintaining clean and safe environments And providing photo updates throughout your stay! I am fully available throughout the summer and have flexible daytime and evening hours. I am home most of the day, so I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care as needed. I can also adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine. One dog lives in my home and I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. I follow each pet’s routine closely and ensure a calm, supervised, and secure environment.
About: Recently retired teacher with a flexible schedule available to care for your furry family members while you travel or work. I’ve always been a huge animal lover and treat pets as family members. ( I also have a passion for pet photography.) I believe in regular communication throughout the day so that you can relax knowing your pets are safe and happy (I’ve been there and know how important that is!) ❤️ I’ve taken care of aging pets and know how to administer medication if needed. (As you can see from my photos, I LOVE taking pictures of your pet and sharing them with you! ). Edit: My husband recently retired so he is home and loves our furry visitors as much as I do! I’m retired and home every day so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My husband is also home in the evenings to help if needed. While I’m new to Rover, I am not new to pet care! I will also provide you with an edited digital photo of your pet as a keepsake!❤️ I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room to run and play. Your pet will never be left unattended and will be given lots of love and attention. We have a laid back approach in our home and your pup will not be crated unless you request it. 🐾
“Nolvia did an amazing job taking care of my two doggies. She made sure they were fed, cared for, and given lots of attention and love. My dogs were happy, comfortable, and clearly had a great time with her. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Nolvia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! 🐶💕”

“Staying with Sawsan has been wonderful for our puppy! Sawsan is nurturing and attentive and ensures that she has a cohesive, playful little pack for daycare and boarding. Beyond making sure that all the pups are safe and happy, she’s very laid back and flexible. Our pup is always excited to see her and comes home happily exhausted. :)”

About: I have always had animals in my life. I know each one is different and special.

I have a golden doodle and shorkie inside my home!

“Alex is fantastic. She was so good with my pup. She asked questions about his temperament and personality, she listened to my instructions about how to greet him because we’re working with another trainer; the whole nine. She brought my pup back and he whined when she was leaving like watched her car and whined. He was so happy to be with her and he came back so tired!! I will absolutely continue to use Alex and would recommend her to any of my friends and family.”

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.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone.

There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.

“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!”
