“Alysha was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Gucci. She was extremely patient, kind, and attentive, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Gucci takes a little while to warm up to new people, but she took the time to make him feel comfortable and cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them with compassion. I am so grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated sitter.”


“Kimmy and Michael are amazing! Nion is really shy and doesn’t like other people often, but they managed to get him to like them. They sent many photos of him playing and were super helpful. I would definitely recommend them!”

“Susan's house is Teddy's "home away from home." Susan takes such wonderful care of him. He's 18 1/2 years old and needs medication. Susan is so loving and keeps me updated. I don't know what I'd do without her!”

“Abby graciously accepted our booking request and provided a warm, loving home for Bear while we were out of town for the week. Leaving our boy behind is never easy, but Abby, Eli, and their pups made it so much easier. We knew Bear was in great company and would be well cared for. We received several updates and photos throughout the week, and it was clear he quickly made himself at home. More importantly, he looked comfortable, happy, and encouraged to do so. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Abby again!”

“I was fortunate to have seen Candy's place on Facebook. My dog, Lucas had a great time there. I was sent videos and pics 2-3 times a day. He had been depressed since he lost his best friend Roxie in Feb. It gave him a chance to play with other dogs. He got plenty of exercise, and I will definately bring him back there next time I go out of town!!! Very satisfied with Candy and her place on the bayou!!”

“I boarded my dog with Megan & Jaime for the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was warm and welcoming, and she made my dog, Taj, feel right at home. Her house is beautiful and has a huge fenced-in yard—perfect for dogs to play and relax safely. She even sent me a photo of Taj lounging in the yard, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Taj even came home with a new toy! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving place to board their dog!”

“This was the best experience we have had so far on Rover! Lindsey was phenomenal at taking care of our extremely active dog. Received daily photos of my dog and constant communication about how his day went. Will be booking again!”

“Lola, my son’s dog seemed so happy to be with Amanda…she is terrified of storms but Amanda let her sit in her lap during the worst part…very sweet lady who loves animals…we are leaving Lola again for about 8 days and are confident that she will be happy and well cared for…thanks Amanda❣️”

“Roger is really the best! Super accommodating and you can tell he really loves your fur baby! Duke had the best time. My second time booking with Roger- and I think Duke has found his favorite sitter.”


“Vanessa did a fantastic job watching our dog over the holidays. We had peace of mind the entire time and received pics of our dog being spoiled daily. Would highly recommend!”

“Tenashia was super sweet and cared for my little guy super well! I was nervous to board him the first time but the photos and updates put my mind at ease! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to book.”

About: I've been blessed to foster more than 20 dogs over the past couple of years. I know training basics, have a big backyard, and currently have two of my own dogs who love to play. I am currently not working so I am free the majority of the time. This allows there to be little to no crating required during the day. I have a large fenced in backyard for free play and zoomies. Inside I have dog beds and toys and a lap for cuddling. My two dogs are friendly and have had plenty of exposure to other dogs through my fostering.
“Amanda is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of our dog Romeo! Right off the bat when we first met her at meet and greet we got an excellent first impression. She is very warm and friendly and was great with our dog! It was nice knowing we can leave our dog with Amanda and he would be treated like he was her dog! During our time away Amanda sent us photos of our babies having fun which was really nice 🙂 I look forward to booking Amanda again in the future!! Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤” I would definitely recommend Amanda you won’t regret it!”

“Simone was wonderful with my Luna! She enjoyed her playtime with the other dogs and kids. She Gave us updates and pictures daily. She was really great for our first experience of leaving our little girl for vacation!”


About: I’ve had multiple dogs growing up as well as lots of other animals! I often dog sit for my siblings and love having them. I like my home to feel like their home with little adjustment. I work at 5 am and come home for lunch and am back home by 12 and am home for the rest of the night. I live right by my job and they are very flexible with me. I love being home in the evenings and having someone to take walks with is ideal! My apartment is open to pets, furniture included unless specified. I will happily keep pets off your furniture if needed. I take regular walks with a leash for exercise to make up for the lack of hard at my house.

About: I have had animals my entire life that I have taken care of and loved. I had to leave my fur babies back home for school, so I wanted another way to see some other fur babies. I am a full time college student, with classes earlier in the day, so I will be free most afternoons and early in the mornings. I will follow the normal routine of your animals within your home, and meet all their needs. I will also offer some extra love and playtime for your precious animals.

“Uriah has been a huge help for me checking in on the dogs while I’m at work! She is reliable and does a great job keeping me updated throughout the day! Would recommend her for your pet needs.”


About: I’ve been caring for cats for most of my life and have experience with cats of all ages, from young kittens to senior cats. Growing up, my family always had cats, including both indoor and outdoor cats, which gave me a strong understanding of their unique personalities, behaviors, and care needs. Over the years, I’ve provided drop-in visits and overnight pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every cat is different—some are social and playful, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. Whether your cat needs extra attention, medication, or simply a reliable caregiver, I’ll treat them like one of my own.
About: I have been around dogs of all sizes. My dogs are both over 55 pounds and full of energy. I can handle any energy level as well. I look forward to working with you and your dogs in the near future! I am a full time behavior tech at an ABA clinic. I work 8:00-3:30 Monday thru Friday, but am free any other time of the week. I am willing to take care of your babies in your home! I provide a loving environment and will love them like I would my own.

““I’m so grateful for the wonderful care she provided for my cat, Gracie. She was always on time, dependable, and truly attentive. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter and will absolutely use her again.””

About: I mostly grew up with dogs, but have had cats for around the last 10 years. Currently I have three cats of my own. I have recently raised a litter of kittens whenever I had a pregnant cat come to me for help. That was one of the best experiences I have had. I will be kind and patient with your cats and fulfill any needs they may have. With cats I have learned to read body language to understand what kind of boundaries they may have, so I am able to be more patient with them if that is needed.

About: A cat was my first pet and I’ve had a place in my heart for them ever since. Have dealt with administering medications to a cat with seizures and a cat with UTI issues. Not gonna say I love cleaning litter boxes lol but I know what has to be done. Also have experience with a litter robot.

“Tessa came to check on my pets at the precise times I needed her to; on top of that, she was a very consistent communicator while I was away! I’m glad I booked with her and look forward to doing so again 🖤 10/10 recommend”


About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for cats and other animals. My wife and I have a passion for helping animals, and whenever we safely can, we rescue stray cats by providing food, shelter, and veterinary care until they are healthy or reunited with their owners or placed in a safe home. While I was stationed at Fort Polk, I often cared for fellow Soldiers’ cats while they were away on leave, during the holidays, or attending training. Since I stayed in Louisiana after buying my home, I was happy to help by feeding their cats, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing their water, spending time playing with them, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for until their owners returned. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, whether they are playful, shy, or independent. I am CPR certified, dependable, physically fit, and committed to providing a calm, clean, and safe environment. I will treat your cat with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own rescue animals, so you can have peace of mind while you are away.

“Above and beyond. Amazing. I was in a hurry and put in the wrong address and by the time we connected she was on her third try. She went back to our house after midnight to make sure my dog was taken care of and did it with grace and aplomb. I can’t say enough good things about Tylyn.”


About: Our home consists of my husband and myself. We all love friendly fur friends and will ensure an at home feeling for yours. Plenty of toys and funtime available. When they get all tuckered out, they are welcome to claim a comfy spot on the couch or bed. Feel free to bring a written list of a routine schedule your fur baby has grown a custom to, especially for overnight and long stays. We are available anytime except most major holidays, but some exceptions can possibly be made so feel free to inquire if needed. Also please be aware that if you bring toys, of the possibility of another dog chewing or destroying it. Also please remember to bath and treat for fleas and other parasites before bringing in order to keep our home pest free. I work a flexible schedule from home, so I'm always available for weekly daycare and most weekend needs as well. I also offer overnight stays. I'm always with your fur baby both inside and outside of my home. I respect your baby's routine, so please feel free to provide instructions.
About: I’ll take your pets to parks or their favorite store. Food, water, and regular walks aren’t enough for some dogs. If your dog likes to fetch, I can throw their favorite toy. My own dog is quite needy, so I spend quite a bit of time appeasing her. I am currently applying to schools and jobs, so I have plenty of time to spare for your pet! I am an open communicator with clients. If you need me to administer medication, I’m capable of that. I am not formulaic, and can address each pet’s needs on a case-to-case basis.

I work 4 to 6 hours a day; the rest of the time, I am at home. I always take them out to the yard before I leave, and I make sure they have food and water. When I return, I take them out to the yard again, and we go for a walk, following our established routine. They usually stay indoors, except for morning and evening walks and bathroom breaks in the fenced yard, which last approximately 30 minutes, three times a day. The dogs eat according to a schedule set by the owner, and they have the freedom to move freely around the house and lie down wherever they want. I have a medium-sized mixed-breed dog who usually ignores other dogs and sometimes plays with them if he likes them.

“We are so incredibly thankful for the sweet care given to our puppy, Oakley. We needed help very last minute due to unexpected funeral arrangements, and she was beyond accommodating, understanding, and compassionate during a stressful time for our family. From the moment Oakley was dropped off, we felt reassured that he was in great hands. She kept us updated, was responsive, caring, and treated Oakley like one of her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was safe, loved, and well cared for while we handled family matters. We truly cannot thank her enough for stepping in on such short notice and making a difficult time a little easier for us. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again in the future. 🐾🤍”

“Thanks for everything Susan! Buddy had a great time and came back exhausted. My fur baby means the world to me and I needed someone who would take care of him like me. We will be making more appointments in the future!!”

About: Growing up on a farm, I have always had a passion for animals. My passion for dogs started with Cody when I was just 5 years old. He was a great mix breed dog who loved playing with frogs just as much as me. Throughout my life, I have cared for dogs of all sizes and various breeds. I have never not shared my home with a dog or 2 or 3. Currently, 2 Great Pyrenees and a dirt road dog fill my bed. I am also a stay at home mom to 4 beautiful children. This allows my schedule to be very flexible. I love working with dogs and would like to get back into this field. During high school, I volunteered and fostered for a local animal shelter. During college and 2 years after, I worked as a vet tech and dog groomer. My kids are 7 years old and younger therefore a flexible job that I can set my own hours is best to accommodate my family.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals and pet sitting for friends and family from a young age gave me a strong foundation in providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, including feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in following instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure.

I’m familiar with clicker training techniques, leash reactivity management, and creating calm, positive experiences during walks and visits. Whether your pet needs exercise, attention, medication, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own pets.

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve loved animals. I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, took two years of veterinary classes, and even worked at a veterinary clinic as my first job. Life took me on a different route but I never stopped loving animals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they need a walk, playtime, fresh food and water, medications, or just lots of love and attention. I’m also the person who stops for every stray animal (my husband has had to remind me we can’t keep them all! 😂). I have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a gecko at home. Most of them are strays so jokes on him! As a wife and mom, I understand how important it is to know your loved ones are in good hands. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and send plenty of photo updates so you know they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I do work full-time, so I offer pet care before and after work, on days off, and during my available hours. This isn’t just a side job for me, it’s something I love and brings me happiness. Since I’ll be caring for your pet in your home, I always strive to keep their routine as normal as possible. And I think communication with you is key!

Please reach out for any specific needs and I can see if I can make it work! I give every pet the love, attention, and patience they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I keep communication open and can send updates and photos if you’d like them. I’m attentive to body language and always respect each animal’s boundaries so they feel safe, understood, and at ease.

I would feed them, take them on walks, play with them, exercise them, make sure they had fresh water, and give them plenty of attention until their owners returned. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. I am CPR certified, physically fit, dependable, and treat every animal like family. I have a spacious home where pets have room to relax and feel comfortable, and I will always make sure they receive the care, exercise, and affection they deserve. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. As a 1099 contractor, my hours vary, which gives me the ability to work around your pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday check-in, evening care, or overnight attention, I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I understand how important consistency is, and I am committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where every pet is treated like family. I am CPR certified and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. My wife and I have rescued stray cats and cared for numerous animals over the years, so we understand the patience and attention every pet deserves. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you have. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving excellent care.
About: I care about my animals that I am with! It's my priority to fulfill their needs. I been a pet lover all of my life so this will be less of a job, more of something I love to do. Taking care of animals would be in my free time which is usually around 4 days a week. I work part time at a clinic, so it would be around my hours! I make it a priority to be there for animals and make sure they have what they need and make them feel loved and cared for.
About: I've loved animals my whole life. I've raised puppies and cared for senior dogs and everything in-between. I enjoy volunteering as a pet transporter for animal rescues. I own my own cleaning business. So pet sitting fits into my schedule perfectly. Some homes I clean and pet sit for as well. I love what I do. I have 5 senior cats so I prefer to care for pets in their own homes. I'm always working in different towns so this works best for me. I am trustworthy and have references.
About: Have had pets since I was young. Experience with a variety ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles and rodents. Newborn to seniors and special needs.

About: All my life I have always had a furry friend and that love is more unique than any love you could get. One thing I live by is loving and treating every pet like they are my own and I have experience from new born puppies to helping with the needs of senior dogs/cats and everyday I am still learning. I am available most days out of the week as long as it is in advanced and can accommodate your needs. I’m available every weekend and holidays! I currently have 1 dog that lives with me but unfortunately will not be able to care for any at my own home. At your home I can work with whatever task you are given me and can be flexible if for example, told there is no fenced yard or if the pet needs to be kept outdoors. I will not be able to stay over nights but can care for pets as long as I need to!

I have over 5 years of training experience and I am experienced with special needs animals and animals with behavioral issues.

About: I’ll take your pets to parks or their favorite store. Food, water, and regular walks aren’t enough for some dogs. If your dog likes to fetch, I can throw their favorite toy.

I am an open communicator with clients. If you need me to administer medication, I’m capable of that. I am not formulaic, and can address each pet’s needs on a case-to-case basis.

“Alysha was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Gucci. She was extremely patient, kind, and attentive, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Gucci takes a little while to warm up to new people, but she took the time to make him feel comfortable and cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them with compassion. I am so grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated sitter.”


“Kimmy and Michael are amazing! Nion is really shy and doesn’t like other people often, but they managed to get him to like them. They sent many photos of him playing and were super helpful. I would definitely recommend them!”

“Abby graciously accepted our booking request and provided a warm, loving home for Bear while we were out of town for the week. Leaving our boy behind is never easy, but Abby, Eli, and their pups made it so much easier. We knew Bear was in great company and would be well cared for. We received several updates and photos throughout the week, and it was clear he quickly made himself at home. More importantly, he looked comfortable, happy, and encouraged to do so. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Abby again!”

“I was fortunate to have seen Candy's place on Facebook. My dog, Lucas had a great time there. I was sent videos and pics 2-3 times a day. He had been depressed since he lost his best friend Roxie in Feb. It gave him a chance to play with other dogs. He got plenty of exercise, and I will definately bring him back there next time I go out of town!!! Very satisfied with Candy and her place on the bayou!!”

“I boarded my dog with Megan & Jaime for the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was warm and welcoming, and she made my dog, Taj, feel right at home. Her house is beautiful and has a huge fenced-in yard—perfect for dogs to play and relax safely. She even sent me a photo of Taj lounging in the yard, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Taj even came home with a new toy! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving place to board their dog!”

“Lola, my son’s dog seemed so happy to be with Amanda…she is terrified of storms but Amanda let her sit in her lap during the worst part…very sweet lady who loves animals…we are leaving Lola again for about 8 days and are confident that she will be happy and well cared for…thanks Amanda❣️”

“Vanessa did a fantastic job watching our dog over the holidays. We had peace of mind the entire time and received pics of our dog being spoiled daily. Would highly recommend!”


About: I’ve had multiple dogs growing up as well as lots of other animals! I often dog sit for my siblings and love having them. I like my home to feel like their home with little adjustment. I work at 5 am and come home for lunch and am back home by 12 and am home for the rest of the night. I live right by my job and they are very flexible with me. I love being home in the evenings and having someone to take walks with is ideal! My apartment is open to pets, furniture included unless specified. I will happily keep pets off your furniture if needed. I take regular walks with a leash for exercise to make up for the lack of hard at my house.

Sampson seemed very comfortable and happy when we dropped him off and picked him up. I felt comfortable that she would watch and care for the same as we would. I give her a 5-star rating for the visit and plan to book again if she's available.”

About: Your pets aren't just guests; they are family. As a Veterinary Technician, I provide a level of care similar to having a pediatric nurse watch your children. My journey began at 18 as a bather and kennel tech, but my passion led me to work alongside some of the most skilled veterinarians in the field. Following the loss of my children’s father, Justin, I found myself at a crossroads, needing a career that allowed me to be there for my kids while still honoring my calling to work with animals. This led to my current mission: opening my own boarding facility in memory of Justin and my beloved rescue dog, Elsie, who stayed by my side from the day I met him until just days after his passing. When you trust me with your 'fur babies,' you aren’t just getting a sitter; you’re getting a professional dedicated to their health, happiness, and safety. I promise they’ll be wagging with joy the moment they hear my name!" I am currently not working due to conflicting hours with my children's school schedule. Therefore, I am flexible with pet sitting hours outside of school pickup/drop off times. As a person who has worked in animal health for a long period of time, safety is my main priority when it comes to your pet. I have done it all, from bathing pets to assisting in surgery. Your pet will always be in safe hands with me.
