About: I have had and taken care of pets of all kinds (but especially dogs) since I was very young! I’ve had experience with puppies, young dogs, and older dogs, male and female. Even now I help take care of relative’s dogs and I love it. I feed, watch, walk, and make sure they’re happy! I stay in good shape and walk / workout every day, so I am able to handle larger breeds if needed! I live near LSU lakes which is a great place for walking, I usually go around the lakes when I go for walks, so I am familiar with the area well. It’s a great experience for people and pets! I’m pretty flexible and usually available for any activities! I am going to be taking 2 online classes this summer which requires me to be home, it works out well to watch some sweet pups! I do not have any dogs or cats within my home currently. Any pet works just fine to be inside or outside! The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all fairly large open spaces and connected together.
“We boarded our senior dog with Nicolette for 13 days. Nicolette was great with Buster. She sent photos and updates while we were on our vacation. Buster seemed relaxed and happy when we picked him up. I will definitely use her boarding services again.”
“Molly was absolutely incredible! She has a clean, safe, and loving environment that made me feel at ease the moment I arrived.My cat was very comfortable and happy while he was in her care. She kept me updated on how he was adjusting and sent me pictures and videos daily. She has been my favorite sitter thus far and I can tell my cat really loved being with her while I was away.”
“Daisy is always happy and healthy after a stay with Lauren, Cody, and their children. She also loves their dog! We've used Lauren and Cody many times and will continue to use them.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“He took great care of Pi! I loved getting photo updates and he clearly took the time to make sure my anxious pup was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with him again.”
“Jason was super nice to us and awesome with our Border collie! Kept her super active and played with her a lot! Our dog is definitely looking forward to staying with him again!”
“She was amazing! She sent me pictures of her and my fur baby and my Diamond started getting attached to her! She kept me updated the entire 4 days and I will definitely be returning if I need care again. I was nervous because it was my JRT's 1st time boarding but she made it super fun and relaxing for her! Thank you so much”
“Savannah is the best. She really takes great care of my dog. She’s everything to me. My dog’s always so happy when she comes home and that means a lot to me I couldn’t ask for a better sitter or someone to leave my dog with when I’m away, she is by far the best in my eyes”
“Christie is phenomenal. I couldn’t have picked a better sitter for my yorkie, Teddy. I received so many pictures and updates throughout his stay. He was clean when I picked up and so happy. Thanks again for making things a breeze for our family.”
“Mr. Leon was great, my 2 dogs looked like they were having a good time with the other dogs. They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”
“Emery was wonderful, communicated a ton, took upon herself to brush her daily and take her to get her nails trimmed. So helpful and so kind and accommodating!! Highly recommend and we will be back!”
“Kenya took care of our Milo for 9 days while we were out of the country. And she was so awesome with him. She often sent us updates and pictures in regards to Milo while we were so far away. I really appreciated that so much! We will certainly book Kenya again! I wish I could give her more than 5-stars.”
“Olivia was great. I liked her immediately when we met. My previous sitter wasn’t available so I had to find someone fast to sit with my senior dog, Jake. She communicated well with me before his stay and she kept me informed of how he was doing on his short visit with her. He was happy and doing well when I picked him up. I will be booking with her again.”
“Angela and Bill absolutely pampered our senior greyhound. She is very nervous in new environments, but they made her feel completely safe and cared for while we were away. They went above and beyond to make sure she ate every meal, took all of her medications, and stayed comfortable and happy the entire time. They even gave her a bath before we picked her up, which was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet senior girl was being loved on like family. We would absolutely trust them with her again and cannot recommend them enough.”
“Nicholas was able to take in my dogs for Christmas last second since we had planned a last second trip to see my family, and I’m super happy with the job he did. He sent pics of the puppies and gave me updates everyday, and when we picked them back up they seemed happy. Thanks again!”
“Keith was awesome! Only second time leaving our 3 YO Jack Russell “Barney” with anyone, first time with a stranger. He has always slept with us ( I know I Know) and I wasn’t sure how that would work out. Turns out Barney enjoyed sleeping with Keith’s pack and made it through the night. We will definitely board with Keith again.”
“Literally amazing! So kind and amazing to my doggo! She sent me daily updates from pictures to videos which I just loved! This was my first time leaving my baby with someone & Im so thankful/blessed to have met her! I cannot wait to go on another trip & book her! ?❤️”

About: I currently have a 21 year old cat that is in great shape! I am comfortable giving medication, administering intravenous liquids, and all sorts of medical care for kitties. My friends call me a cat whisper cause even the grumpiest of cats love me.
“Zoe was such a wonderful sitter for my fur babies and the photos were absolutely adorable and funny. I know they enjoyed spending time with her. I will definitely be booking her again. She made sure everything was clean and fresh before she left at let me know if there was any issues that needed to be taken care of.”
“Savannah is a wonderful cat care taker! She clearly has a deep love for animals. She is professional and took such good care of our cats. They were very happy and comfortable when we returned, and I really appreciated the photos she sent.”
About: While I didn’t grow up with cats until I was older since I was scared of them, I think because of that I was able to really form a connection with cats for who they are haha. I had two female family cats and I loved them very much, they were super self dependent but I was always super grateful when they wanted cuddles. At my part time job they board cats for over night or just for the day so I have experience in regular feeding, medicating, playing and changing litter boxes. I love when a kitty plays with a flirt pole, i’ll play all day until my arm falls off if I could. I also love some good kitty snuggles so if your cat wants some I will be more then happy!
“Lyndsi was a wonderful pet and house sitter. She shared photos or a video of the pets each day while we were away along with text updates on how things were going. We were very comfortable that our pets were safe and sound while we were away for a few days. We highly recommend booking Lyndsi.”
“Gracie came highly recommended to us and she was excellent! She treated our cats well, made them feel safe and cared for while we were away. Great communication. We will definitely be asking for her help again”
“Samantha was an excellent cat sitter, and I would absolutely book her again. She was reliable, excellent at communicating, and clearly very attentive to our kittens. While we were away, she checked in with questions when needed, confirmed details, and reassured us that everything was taken care of. She followed feeding instructions carefully, made sure both the kittens and outdoor cats were cared for, and gave the kittens plenty of love and attention. It was such a relief knowing our pets were in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter!”
About: As someone who has worked with a variety of domesticated felines, I’ve learned that the last thing a cat wants is a sitter. Lol. Most just want someone who can scoop their box and open their can of food. I’m a professional in that area. I’m also good at reading kitty behavioral cues. I can usually tell if a feline is going to be my friend or not. I know when to give them their space. I’ve watched kitties who are social and some that are shy. I’m pretty good with a laser and always enjoy playing with or sitting with a sweet cat or cats. I can also prepare special diets and give insulin shots. The Kitties always train me well!
About: I am a 2nd year student at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge. I grew up with a love for animals and decided to turn my passion into my career. I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. I have small animal clinic experience so I am very comfortable with giving medications, identifying signs of anxiety or pain, and providing loving care to any animal. I have 3 dogs right now that I absolutely adore and spend most of my time with. Being a veterinary student means that I get the opportunity to deal with all sorts of animals weekly. Animals bring me joy and the more I can be around them, the better! I feed my dogs twice a day and take them on daily walks. I play with them as much as I can to get their energy out and cuddle with them once they are tired out. When I dog-sit for people, I usually go to their house 3 times a day, play with them, and ensure they get enough attention and playtime. I am also comfortable with giving baths and trimming nails.
“Julia did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was away. It was my first time booking drop-in visits on Rover and I was a little worried, but Julia followed my instructions exactly and even gained my cat’s trust! Would definitely book again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! Friends and family have trusted me with their animals when they‘ve gone out of town many times. I’m an Instructional Coach at a school in my district, so I won’t be home during the day unless it’s weekends or when I’m on break. During the summer though I’ll be home majority of the time. My sister lives with me and she has a dog, but they’re sweet and have their own room. I take care of pets by giving them food, water, and bathroom trips as often as needed. I also make sure to have play time with them, which is my favorite! I can make sure to give them any medicine or put them on a leash when going outside if that’s what you need.
About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was 5 years old. I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years as a boarder before I permanently moved to Baton Rouge. I go to LSU and major in animal science. I have medicated and taken care of anxious/aggressive dogs. I am patient, gentle, and I take account that each pet is a family member to each owner. I am currently enrolled at LSU majoring in Animal science. I have wanted to foster or get a pet of my own since moving here but I have not been able to, so I decided to make my side hustle helping others with the things I love to do. I am available on weekdays and most weekends. Just message me ahead of time for weekends! I am easygoing and easy to communicate with. I have a fenced little yard and I enjoy walking around my gated neighborhood, so I will do so with your pet. I follow instructions well, I am aware each pet is different and have their own personality. I’m slow and a quick learner, since I have handled hundreds different dogs for a handful of years. If I am ever confused on an instruction my first instinct is to contact you to make sure and not just “assume”.
About: Cats have always held a very special place in my heart, and caring for them is truly one of my greatest passions. I currently have four cats of my own Roxie, Blaze, Mavis, and Dart, all of whom I rescued off the streets of Baton Rouge and welcomed into my home as part of my family. Through rescuing and caring for them, I have gained experience working with cats of different personalities, temperaments, and comfort levels, including shy and fearful cats who need extra patience and understanding. As a veterinary student at LSU and an active member of the Feline Club, I am especially passionate about fear and stress free feline care. I understand how important it is to create a calm, safe, and trusting environment for cats while their owners are away. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring behavior and health concerns, maintaining clean litter boxes, and providing individualized attention based on each cat’s needs and personality.
“Amy did an awesome job. We are extremely happy with how she took care of our fur babies. She never hesitated with anything we asked of her. We will definitely ask for Amy again when go on our next trip!! ??⬛”
About: It is pure joy for me to care for animals. I have been house sitting and caring for a family for over 9 years. Their two dogs are no less than family to me and my pets. I have a deep love, compassion, and commitment for the well being of all animals, that I believe is a gift God gave me. I have always opened my home to animals, and I love having them around me. I have never been apprehensive or fearful around any animal breed or their behavior. Trust me, I’ve been in some very dangerous places while rescuing animals. I’ve done and seen it all, but I think it’s a gift I was born with, that gives me that fearless and caring nature. I know animals can sense your intentions, so there is no faking it. I have been so blessed to have Wiley, a Chihuahua I rescued in California, and a Rabbit Flopsy who thinks he is also a dog. Sadly, my precious rescue cat Gracie, passed away last month, and we are heartbroken. The 3 of them were so close. I can only promise you, that I would love and care for your animals, as if they were my own, and I look forward to the opportunity. If I’m not already scheduled, I will always accept. I’m open to 7 days a week. I’m very spontaneous and I am very flexible. So last minute requests are not a problem. I have two fenced in patios. No yard, but lots of grass in the neighborhood for walking. When inside they have all the privileges my pets would have. I do prefer to have my dog Wiley with me, if I am house sitting. See his profile, he is wonderful with everyone and everything.
About: I have experience with cats, reptiles, and dogs. I have experience with reactive and aggressive dogs and their care, as well as skittish dogs, and normal pups. As I am a small person, I cannot walk untrained giant breed dogs unfortunately, but I can more than happily dog sit and do drop in care! I love animals of all types and find great joy in caring for animals. I've worked with senior dogs, new born puppies, older puppies, rescue dogs, neglected dogs, and longtime family pups. I have experience with all sorts of cats, from skittish to cuddle bugs. I have some experience with training and find joy in helping dogs reach their best potential and learn new tricks. I've been caring for animals since I was at least 13 years old and intend to long into my future.

About: I've had dog(s) my entire life and have two perfect angels of my own now. I love playing, snuggling and spoiling all doggos. My sister is an experienced Vet Tech, and she's on call at all times in case anything were to go wrong. She also lives around the corner if a visit is needed. My yard is fenced in with a doggie door for true puppy freedom, and I'm within walking distance to the dog park. Growing up around tons of pets and veterinarians, I'm experienced in tendencies and temperaments of dogs and good about picking up on how they're feeling/reacting. From toys to treats to tummy rubs, I'll make your dog feel right at home! I can be as strict or as lenient on diet/exercise as you need. Your pup won't miss a beat!

If possible, I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet, but I'm happy to provide services even if that's not an option.
“Robin was wonderful! So responsive and communicative. I have never used a dog sitter before but I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with Robin in her home. She sent photo updates frequently and sent my puppy home with some goodies. We loved Robin!”
“JC was great! Very organized and communicative. We loved getting all the updates throughout the day and had no doubt that our pet was being well cared for. Will definitely book again if we come to Baton Rouge again!”
“Lauren was amazing with Woody!!! She kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the day, which showed Woody having a fabulous day. I know Woody is looking forward to staying with Lauren and her family again. It definitely makes my heart rest easier knowing he’s in good hands when I’m not home. ❤️”

I’ve raised my own dogs and have experience fostering, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get lots of attention throughout the day—regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. They won’t be left alone for long periods, and I make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. My home is in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with a yard for safe playtime. I’ve set everything up to be dog-friendly so you can feel confident your pet is in a safe and relaxed environment.

“My dog absolutely loved him. He was anxious the first day but Keith really helped him get comfortable and by the third day he was happily running inside, not sparing me a second glance. Would 100% have Keith watch my dog again.”
“I am so happy I found such a sweet family to do doggy daycare with. Lindley was able to get me booked last minute and was super fast at responding and giving me updates. This was the first time I ever used services through Rover, and I am happy I found Lindley. My dog loved playing with her dog and kids and fell right asleep in the car!”

About: We live in a 2nd-floor apartment that has 12 stairs leading up to it. I have had dogs in the home since the age of 2 and been a primary caregiver for my last 3 family dogs. My partner and I both love all dogs, especially larger breeds. We are experienced in basic leash and command training, basic medication administration, and house training. We firmly believe you can never have too many dogs around and would love to host your furry family member while you are away! We have a cat named Mitties who keeps to herself and tolerates her brother Lincoln as well as his friends who visit. Lincoln has never met another pup he didn't like. He loves to play and wrestle but also knows when it's time to give his friends space. He has regular interaction with dogs of all sizes and adjusts his play style accordingly. We are available for most weekends, and most weekdays from a week-to-week basis. Isaac works from home and is almost always around during the day to supervise! Dogs can be crated if needed over night or while we are away. Our dog Lincoln does not use a crate, however, so it is not necessary if your dog doesn’t usually use one either.

About: my ability to provide personalized care for each pet, including experience with puppies and supporting senior pets with gentle handling and extra attention, all while maintaining a safe, loving, and stress free environment. i am currently in school & also work but my schedule is very flexible & i am always open to work with you to accommodate with each other! I care for pets by following their routines, providing food, water, exercise, and attention, ensuring a safe and clean environment, and monitoring their health and well-being whether in my home or the client’s home.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I turned my lifelong passion for animals into my profession. As an incoming second-year veterinary student at LSU, caring for animals is more than just a job to me, it is truly what I love to do every day. I am passionate about creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment for every pet in my care and treating them with the same compassion and attention I would give my own animals. My veterinary training and hands on experience allow me to confidently care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring health concerns, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and providing attentive care for senior pets or animals needing extra support. I also understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive interactions when caring for puppies and high energy pets. Above all, I genuinely love building trust and connections with animals. Pet care is something I intentionally prioritize within my daily and weekly routine. While I do work part time in a large animal emergency hospital, caring for animals is my passion and an important part of my life. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure that every pet in my care receives the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I understand how important reliability and communication are when trusting someone with your pets, and I am committed to meeting each animal’s individual needs, whether that includes walks, playtime, medications, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship and comfort while you are away. Animals are truly a central part of my life, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, attention, and compassion that I give my own. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment where they feel secure and well cared for. I understand that every animal has different routines, personalities, and needs, so I make it a priority to provide individualized care tailored to each pet. Whether that includes playtime, exercise, medications, feeding schedules, enrichment, or simply companionship and affection. I strive to ensure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide dependable, attentive, and professional care so that both pets and owners can feel confident and at ease.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had one by my side. Over the years, my family has owned a variety of breeds, including a Yorkie, Beagle mix, Chocolate Lab, Golden Retriever, and Miniature Doodle, which has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. During my junior year of high school, I adopted my own Yorkie puppy, who is now 3 years old and truly my best friend. Having cared for dogs my whole life, I understand how important it is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and cared for. I take pride in making sure each pet gets the attention, patience, and care they deserve. Dogs may not be able to talk, but I will always make sure their needs are understood and met. As a full-time student at LSU, I have a very flexible schedule and currently do not have another job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available Monday through Saturday for whatever times are needed, whether that includes walking, feeding, watering, playing, or simply keeping your dog company. For the summer, my schedule is completely open from the times 7am-5pm, so I am available whenever you may need reliable and loving pet care. I’m committed to making sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I will send lots of pictures of your furry friend because I believe it gives a piece of mind to doggy parents and will play with them intill they run through all their energy!
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! Friends and family have trusted me with their animals when they‘ve gone out of town many times. I’m an Instructional Coach at a school in my district, so I won’t be home during the day unless it’s weekends or when I’m on break. During the summer though I’ll be home majority of the time. My sister lives with me and she has a dog, but they’re sweet and have their own room. I take care of pets by giving them food, water, and bathroom trips as often as needed. I also make sure to have play time with them, which is my favorite! I can make sure to give them any medicine or put them on a leash when going outside if that’s what you need.

I am very knowledgeable on dog body language, behavior, and genetics. You can also visit us on instagram for pictures of past and current boarding pups, and don’t forget to send us a message on Instagram with the word “Rover” to unlock an exclusive discount Avalon.k9s I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself, I spend my free time training dogs, and when I’m busy I’m also training dogs. I have a whole room in my house dedicated to dogs, but they’re welcome anywhere in the house, I have a fenced in yard and I’m located close to some lakes. I have tons of unique enrichment opportunities for your pups, including things like snuffle mats, puzzles, kongs, and more. My house is puppy proofed, because I often foster and train dogs! Being a multiple dog household I cannot board any dog with same sex aggression, human aggression, or idiopathic aggression, and reactive dogs will be a case by case basis, However, being a trainer I am more than open to help families work through these issues. Please let me know of any medical conditions or allergies! I like to use treats when working with dogs, so I recommend bringing some yummy high value treats so their tummy doesn’t get upset!

I also offer training packages during boarding, so if you want your pup to work on some basic obedience feel free to ask for more info!
“Shania was so communicative when my dog was being challenging. She even went the extra mile and was willing to come over and meet my dog later that day when I was home so Bonnie could warm up to her”
“Robin is so good with my pets and they love her. She is so nice and communicative. I feel comfort knowing she is taking care of my babies while I am at work. Thank you!”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I truly meet pets where they are. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love building trust with each animal, whether that means helping a high-energy puppy learn basic manners or giving a senior pet the extra care and comfort they need. I have experience with puppy care (including reinforcing routines and house rules) as well as senior care, such as administering medication, assisting with mobility, and keeping a calm, predictable environment. I’m very detail-oriented, follow instructions closely, and treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a student with a flexible part-time job, I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and give it the time and attention it deserves. I’m already used to building my days around routines, so feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins fit in easily. I enjoy spending time with animals as a break from schoolwork, and I make sure each pet gets consistent care, attention, and affection throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I know pets are most comfortable when things feel familiar, so I take the time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, walk routine, play style, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while also keeping their environment clean and calm. I’m careful to follow all instructions, including medications, training routines, or house rules.

I am also currently studying to become a DVM so I love all furry friends! :) I have 100+ volunteer hours at animal shelters and I currently work part time at a pet boarding facility. I’m free mostly every weekday and anytime on the weekends. I usually take pets out 3-4 times a day for potty breaks. I love every pup size and I’ll enjoy snuggling with them or running around with them! I have a fenced backyard with a super chill senior dog that would love to meet other animals. We have a very calm home so no loud noises or disruptions. I also have a crate for small to medium dogs if needed.

About: I have had and taken care of pets of all kinds (but especially dogs) since I was very young! I’ve had experience with puppies, young dogs, and older dogs, male and female. Even now I help take care of relative’s dogs and I love it. I feed, watch, walk, and make sure they’re happy! I stay in good shape and walk / workout every day, so I am able to handle larger breeds if needed! I live near LSU lakes which is a great place for walking, I usually go around the lakes when I go for walks, so I am familiar with the area well. It’s a great experience for people and pets! I’m pretty flexible and usually available for any activities! I am going to be taking 2 online classes this summer which requires me to be home, it works out well to watch some sweet pups! I do not have any dogs or cats within my home currently. Any pet works just fine to be inside or outside! The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all fairly large open spaces and connected together.
“Molly was absolutely incredible! She has a clean, safe, and loving environment that made me feel at ease the moment I arrived.My cat was very comfortable and happy while he was in her care. She kept me updated on how he was adjusting and sent me pictures and videos daily. She has been my favorite sitter thus far and I can tell my cat really loved being with her while I was away.”
“Daisy is always happy and healthy after a stay with Lauren, Cody, and their children. She also loves their dog! We've used Lauren and Cody many times and will continue to use them.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“He took great care of Pi! I loved getting photo updates and he clearly took the time to make sure my anxious pup was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with him again.”
About: I have grown up raising pets of all kinds. I have many years of experience with animals, owning multiple cats and dogs. Not only that, but I am familiar with many different breeds of dogs, ranging from labs and german shepherds to bassets and pugs. I know how to take care of and have fun with any pet. I am currently in school so I'll have plenty of time to watch your babies after school and on weekends. I am currently available from 2:30 to 10 on weekends and 5 to 10 on weekdays. I have a fenced yard with grass and plenty of space for your pups to play. They would be allowed in any part of my house, so you don't have to worry about them being cooped up in the winter.
“Savannah is the best. She really takes great care of my dog. She’s everything to me. My dog’s always so happy when she comes home and that means a lot to me I couldn’t ask for a better sitter or someone to leave my dog with when I’m away, she is by far the best in my eyes”
“Mr. Leon was great, my 2 dogs looked like they were having a good time with the other dogs. They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”
“Emery was wonderful, communicated a ton, took upon herself to brush her daily and take her to get her nails trimmed. So helpful and so kind and accommodating!! Highly recommend and we will be back!”
“We have been so happy with Tracy and her level of care for our toy poodle. Tracy and her kids treated our dog like she was family. I know our dog felt right at home while we were gone. I received multiple updates and pictures while we were away. We’ve booked with her twice now and will continue to use her for the future.”
“Lauren treated Foxy like a queen. Wasn’t sure if she was going to want to come home!!!! We will be using her again! Received lots and lots of pics, videos and messages.”
“Kenya took care of our Milo for 9 days while we were out of the country. And she was so awesome with him. She often sent us updates and pictures in regards to Milo while we were so far away. I really appreciated that so much! We will certainly book Kenya again! I wish I could give her more than 5-stars.”
“Olivia was great. I liked her immediately when we met. My previous sitter wasn’t available so I had to find someone fast to sit with my senior dog, Jake. She communicated well with me before his stay and she kept me informed of how he was doing on his short visit with her. He was happy and doing well when I picked him up. I will be booking with her again.”
About: Need a break from ur furry friend? Whether it’s one day or Monday through Friday or somewhere in between, I got ur back! Ask me about other animals too🤩 This is a part time job for me to keep me busy during the week. I have epilepsy and cannot drive. I’d love to be able to have a job and this is my new dream 🤩❤️ I have a fenced in yard and one friendly cat named Whiskers. If you have any needs beyond those mentioned above feel free to request them in person.
“Keith was awesome! Only second time leaving our 3 YO Jack Russell “Barney” with anyone, first time with a stranger. He has always slept with us ( I know I Know) and I wasn’t sure how that would work out. Turns out Barney enjoyed sleeping with Keith’s pack and made it through the night. We will definitely board with Keith again.”
“I had such a great experience leaving my pup Todo with her! She kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures — she captured the best moments, and the photos she sent were literally perfect . Todo got along really well with the other dogs that were there, and I could tell he was comfortable and happy the whole time. As a very protective dog mom, I truly felt at ease leaving my son with her. She made both me and Todo feel so welcomed, and I’m really grateful for how caring and attentive she was. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.”
“Kelbie was fantastic! She picked up and dropped off Zummo, sent regular picture updates, and made sure he felt right at home. He came back happy and relaxed, and it was clear her whole family loved having him. I’ll definitely be booking with Kelbie again!”
“Bradley graciously accepted a short notice booking for our dog Ghost. He was very communicative and responsive leading up to and throughout the boarding stay. Bradley’s dog Beaux is very sweet, gentle & got along well with Ghost. We 100% recommend Bradley for boarding.”
