Highly-rated overnight sitters - Charon
“Susan is one-of-a-kind. She loved my Teddy so much and took such good care of him. Today was the day that we had to help him cross the Rainbow Bridge (he was almost 18 and declining).Susan asked to be with my husband and me. That's just the kind of person she is. I'll never be able to thank her enough for the care she gave Teddy. You can trust your babies with her.”
“Alysha was wonderful with my dog and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. My pup was happy and well cared for when I returned. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave—highly recommend and would book again!”
“I could not have asked for a better experience! Amanda and her family treated my boy like he was their own and took great care of him. She kept me updated throughout the stay and pickup/dropoff was very smooth.”
“I couldn’t imagine a better experience with Candy and her family! She did a great job of making our dogs feel right at home and keept us updated everyday through the many photos and videos. I’ll definitely be using her again next time we need to go out of town! I highly recommend her for anybody who wants to feel confident in leaving their fur babies while on vacation.”
“So thankful to have found Simone! I always hesitate to leave my Bichon at a kennel because I know he is nervous and scared. This was a fantastic alternative for me. Simone and her family were wonderful to Andy and took great care of him. She updated me throughout Andy's stay with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated. I would recommend Simone to anyone looking to have their fur babies boarded, walked, etc. and plan to use her alot in the future. Thanks Simone!”
“Tamara was absolutely fantastic!! She sent plenty of photos to update and our pups looked so content! She even extended our booking an extra day when we asked at the last minute! 10/10 I recommend!”
“Heather responded quickly to questions and kept me updated on my dog's visit. The initial meet and greet went well and my dog got along well with her dog which was good. 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.”
“Regan did an excellent job sitting and caring for our pups. Very respectful, well mannered and a loving and caring person to care for your fur babies. Very pleased with communication, updates and pictures as well. We will definitely choose Regan again.”
“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.”
“I had a great experience! Briana was incredibly responsive and was able to accommodate my last-minute booking, which I really appreciated. She treated my pup like her own and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the stay, giving me complete peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Briana to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Louie seemed happy and well taken care of when we picked him up from his stay. I’d be comfortable bringing him back to Allyson. You can tell she cares about animals and their wellbeing.”

“Awesome Sitter she knows my dogs are well loved and she extended. Herself and her beautiful girls to them . My rescue has anxiety and trust issues but still she rose above it . I am so grateful . She knows how to handle the fur babies ! ❤️🙏💪”
“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!!

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.
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.
“Rana took great care of my baby over the weekend while I was out of town! She was attentive to Cher’s needs and communicated any concerns she had. I loved the pictures she sent and commentary of Cher’s stay :)”

Cat caregivers near you - Charon
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: I’ve grown up with 2 English bulldogs my whole life. I work at a dog daycare with every breed and size imaginable. I love animals I work park time at my dog daycare facility. But if you message me in advance I will make you and your beautiful pup my top priority! I currently do not own a pet but I always had my English bulldogs following me around my parents house so I’m always aware of my surroundings and making sure I didn’t step on them

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience growing up around cats and understanding their unique personalities and needs.

My goal is to provide patient, reliable care and make the experience as stress-free as possible for both cats and their owners.

“Summer is awesome! She did everything perfectly as requested and even made an extra effort to make our very skittish cat feel safe so she would eat even though she was hiding. I would have summer watch our cats any time!”
“I can’t thank Lani enough for taking care of my girl. I was worried about leaving her alone but Lani sent me photo updates and loved on my girl for me while I was away. I would definitely use her again!”
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.
“Reaghan did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was out of town! She kept in touch and sent me adorable pictures of my cat being active and happy so I didn't have to worry while I was gone. I also appreciated that she was so generous with her time over the busy holiday season. Would definitely book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Simone. I love all animals, big and small and in-between. Animals love me as well! I’m patient and have dealt with a variety of animals in my life time, from long hair cats to domestic short hairs, to large breed dogs down to small, toy sized breeds. I am an active person and currently walk my own dog 1-2 times a day, so walking other people’s animals is right up my alley. I also enjoy spoiling and loving on all types of animals, cats and dogs alike. I look forward to opening my house and providing services for whoever may need them! I look forward to working with and meeting all my new animal friends! I can’t wait to work for their humans either. Hope to hear from you soon!
“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!!”
“Sadie and I would definitely recommend Megan for doggy daycare! She is prompt and reliable--Always responded to messaging right away. She seems genuine and friendly. Sadie, who is a little shy with strangers, warmed to her quickly. We would certainly use her kind services again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I can remember. We have always been a family of pet lovers. Pets are more than just pets to me; they are family! I’d be happy to assist in caring for your loved ones as if they’re one of my own. I am currently self-employed and able to adjust my schedule as needed by my Rover clients. I am usually available between 7 am and 10 pm as well as for overnight/weekend sitting. I have a fenced in yard and 6 kitties at my home. Happy to help with drop ins, walks, overnights, and boarding in special circumstances.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of experience, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I look after. I’ve been pet sitting for over five years and previously worked in a veterinary clinic for three years, which has given me valuable hands on experience recognizing normal vs. concerning behaviors and providing attentive care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m able to plan my days around the pets I care for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize reliability and making sure each pet stays comfortable in their normal routine while their owners are away. 🐾 I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. During visits, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also spend quality time with them so they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I send regular photo updates so clients can see how their pets are doing and have peace of mind.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was roughly ten years old. I have experience with all age groups, training experience, and medical experience! I also have experience in potty training! I currently work fulltime for Rover, although that may change sometime in the future. I pride myself in taking the time and energy to devote myself to certain areas like pet care though. I follow rules to a T. I offer pet care in my home and I offer plenty of walks, playtime, love, and care! I always leave a clients home better than what I arrived to as well as a personal touch.
“Gabrielle was amazing. Jake had a great time hanging out. I will absolutely use her again next time I'm in town. I was so fortunate to find her close to where I was going to be! Thank you again 💙”
About: I've been pet sitting on Rover for over 4 years now and I have over 10 years experience overall! I have cats of my own and had dogs growing up in the country. I'll treat your pet friends with trust,care, and lots of attention!!😏 *Please if you can; I love meet and greets. They make stays far more comfortable and are FREE!! My schedules pretty open and Im home most of the time! I strive to make myself affordable and give the best care for you and your animals! I'm home for most holidays due to not having much family! I try to stay reliable and affordable at all times and love meeting new people and animals! I currently live in a three bedroom house with a fenced yard. If chosen to care for your animals... I'd be very kind, patient and passionate while dealing with them. I'd make sure they have plenty of food and water and make sure they use the bathroom or have a clean litter box. I never discipline and I refuse to take a dog with a shock collar. The house is less than a mile outside of town and offers a large yard for walking and running on a leash. If you board with me, your dog or cat will be in safe hands. I'd report any kind of issue to you immediately. I like to send a lot of photos and videos during the service, I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with an unknown person.

I currently have 7 fur baby rescues of my own that I have found wandering the streets all different sizes and breeds : ) I work full-time but from home. I have a constant rotation in place for letting pups out to potty, play, and spend one on one time with them. I am almost always home except for a few hours throughout the week to workout or run errands. My personal pets have an underground fence that keeps them in the yard, however I have 3 large covered runs under the carport each with a grassy area and shop fans, cots, and large water basins if extended outdoor time is required other than a leash walk for your baby. Indoors I have 2 bedrooms designated for pups as well as a living area. I rotate groups throughout these areas as well as outside during the day as I have dogs of all ages and activity levels.

About: 💗 30+ Years Experience | Pet Lover & Rescue Mom 💗 About Me: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of hands-on pet care experience. From seniors to puppies, shy cats to sassy small breeds—I’ve cared for them all with patience, love, and genuine joy. I live with a small crew of rescues who remind me every day why I do this. Meet my furry family: 🐾 Sadie – my 17-year-old gentle senior pup who’s full of wisdom and love 🐾 Harley – a 9-year-old tuxedo cat with a flair for the dramatic and a heart of gold (even if he pretends otherwise) 🐾 Nemo – my 7-year-old Pomchi with a signature pout and a heart that melts for cuddles 🐾 Marley – a 5 lb Chi and the definition of a momma’s boy, always by my side Each of them came to me as a rescue, and their individual personalities have taught me how to tune into an animal’s needs—whether it’s a slow introduction, a cozy nap buddy, or just the right way to scratch behind the ears. I specialize in senior care, shy or anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’m comfortable with all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—because I know how important they are to you. What you can expect when your pet is with me: ✅ Calm, loving environment ✅ Personalized care based on your pet’s needs ✅ Medication administration (oral/injectable if needed) ✅ Regular updates and photos ✅ Deep understanding of pet body language & behavior Whether you’re headed out for a weekend or need a daily drop-in, you can feel confident your pet is in capable and compassionate hands. Let’s talk about how I can help give your pet a safe, loving experience while you’re away! I have a flexible job that allows me to schedule check-in visits throughout the week, so I’m available for midday potty breaks, feedings, or quick play sessions. I’m also free most weekends and happy to help with your pet care needs when you’re away! Safety & Trust Come First—In Your Home or Mine Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in your home, their comfort, routine, and safety are always my top priority. 🏠 In My Home: 🐾 Calm, pet-friendly space with constant supervision 🐾 Safe, secure, and clean environment—no hazards or crowded areas 🐾 Slow, thoughtful introductions to my own friendly rescue pets 🐾 Comfortable areas for seniors, small breeds, and nervous pets 🐾 Personalized care for puppies, kittens, and special needs pets 🐾 Experience with oral meds, eye drops, topical treatments, and some injectables (with instructions) 🚪 In Your Home: 🏡 Respectful, responsible care in your pet’s familiar environment 🔒 I follow your safety protocols: gates, crates, feeding routines, meds 🐕 I never rush—each visit includes time for cuddles, play, and proper care 📸 You’ll receive regular photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind 🩺 Experienced with senior and special needs pets—mobility issues, incontinence care, anxiety, or routine-based behavior needs 🍼 Confident with young puppies and kittens, including feeding schedules, socialization, and extra clean-up care With 30+ years of experience, I’ve learned how to tune into each pet’s unique needs and provide care that’s not just safe—but truly loving. Whether you’re heading out for a few hours or a full vacation, you can trust your pets are in good hands.

Whether it's daily walks, playtime, overnight boarding, bathing, or administering medication when needed, I treat every animal with the same care and attention I'd give my own. I currently work part-time, allowing me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for boarding, and weekdays for walks. I’m excited to provide your pets with lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away! I have a fenced-in yard where pets can safely enjoy outdoor time. I also have one friendly indoor cat named Tater who is used to being around other animals. If your pet is more comfortable with a crate or has a specific routine, I’m happy to accommodate their needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable throughout their stay.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life, and my love for animals is at the heart of everything I do. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I have experience caring for puppies, adult pets, senior pets, and elderly or disabled dogs that require extra patience, compassion, and specialized care. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, medication reminders, gentle assistance, or simply lots of affection and reassurance, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful dogs, Sweetnezz and Sugar, and my cat, Meow. Caring for them every day has taught me the importance of consistency, trust, and creating a calm, happy environment. When you entrust your furry family member to me, you can have peace of mind knowing they’ll receive dependable, loving care and plenty of attention. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable, confident, and cared for every step of the way. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just some extra love and companionship, I have the time to give them the attention they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. As a proud pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m passionate about helping both pets and their owners by providing loving, reliable care and treating every dog and cat as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is receiving the same compassion, patience, and attention I’d want for my own Sweetnezz, Sugar, and Meow. I provide loving, dependable care in the comfort of your pet’s own home, where they feel the safest and most relaxed. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help reduce stress and keep them happy while you’re away. My services include feeding, fresh water, treats (with your approval), walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, administering medications if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also make sure your pet gets the exercise, affection, and care they deserve while keeping you updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and provide personalized care. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, and loved until you return home.
About: I’m experienced with cats and dogs and have personally raised a litter of kittens from birth recently. I currently have a dog that is a Australian Shepherd/Husky mix and 3 cats (a black cat, a snowshoe, and a tortie). I offer gentle, reliable care and make pets feel safe and loved. Any protocols or needs will be followed to the best of my ability. I am mostly available weekday evenings and weekends. Depending on my work schedule and work load (I work from home), it's possible that I can also be available early mornings or mid-day to drop in and check on your pets. 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.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working in veterinary medicine for over 10 years and my passion for animals. I love them!! I am currently working full time from home. I am pretty flexible to provide care that you need for your fur babies especially early in the morning, during breaks and after work I care for my pets in my home by treating them as if they are my children. My fur babies are super spoiled. I have a fenced in yard and provide them with super quality care constantly especially with me working in veterinary medicine I am always on alert for any problems.
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!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of experience, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I look after. I’ve been pet sitting for over five years and previously worked in a veterinary clinic for three years, which has given me valuable hands on experience recognizing normal vs. concerning behaviors and providing attentive care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m able to plan my days around the pets I care for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize reliability and making sure each pet stays comfortable in their normal routine while their owners are away. 🐾 I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. During visits, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also spend quality time with them so they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I send regular photo updates so clients can see how their pets are doing and have peace of mind.
About: I've been a proud pet parent to several fur babies over the years and have always been the go-to helper for family and friends. I’ve also had the joy of fostering puppies through our local rescue. I truly believe our pets are family and understand the importance of treating them with that respect. I live in Abbeville but work in Broussard so I can be available in multiple areas! I work a typical 8 to 5 full-time Monday through Friday so deoending on your location depends on when I can do walks or check-ins. My schedule can be some what flexible at times if scheduled ahead of time. If boarding, we prefer dogs be crate trained while we are at work until we get to know them and see they are okay to be left loose in the house. I have a large yard, two dogs (inside) and a cat (outside). Our pups are trained to stay in the parameters of our yard and leashed trained as well. Their crates are available if they would like to sleep in them but aren't locked often unless staying in a place that requires them to be when we travel or we have other pets with us that may require them to be.
About: Hi! I’m a passionate and experienced dog lover with over 4 years of hands on experience working at a busy doggy daycare. In that role, I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Handling everything from playtime supervision and feeding to administering basic care and ensuring a safe, happy environment for every pup. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve grown up around them, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re my own with patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a reliable sitter, or just some extra attention while you’re away, you can count on me to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I’m comfortable with high energy dogs, shy pups, and everything in between! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I’m a teacher during the week, so my pet care schedule fits perfectly around that! I’m available in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays, and I have full availability on weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer. This allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency when their owners need it most. I have a dog of my own, but I live in an apartment, so boarding in my home isn’t ideal. My dog is friendly so play dates are definitely an option if you’re okay with it! I prefer caring for pets in their own environment where they’re most comfortable. In a client’s home, I always follow all provided instructions closely and do my best to keep your pet’s routine as normal and consistent as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any specific care needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress free while you’re away.
About: I went to school for animal health and behavior and I use to be a zookeeper. I know my stuff! Also grew up on a farm. I currently have 3 dogs who eat breakfast and dinner of real food that I cook everyday. I am well aware of proper nutrition as well as behavior training since three dogs can get easily chaotic if not handled properly. We play everyday and have sun tanning time for 2 hours. No matter my schedule we stay with there's! I have a fenced in yard and my dogs are trained not to run out any door. We have safe toys in a toy box that we check for broken pieces that may be ingested.
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.
About: I’ve been a veterinary technician for 8 years with knowledge and experience to care for a variety of needs for all types of pets. What this means for you: when you book with me you’re booking for gold standard care of a luxury style in home boarding vs. kennel boarding. I typically only work 3 days a week leaving me with open availability for the other days. These days do vary, but can be discussed further to meet needs. I have a privacy fence for a large play and potty area. Pets will be walked on the regular for exercise and feed as requested by the owner. All boarding/daycare dogs are required to be up to date on core vaccines (records provided prior to drop off) and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. They also must be provided a crate. This is to ensure safety of your pet.

Whether it’s long walks , toy fights , or long baths , I’m down for the ride ! The world is such a beautiful place because of our animals why not love and cherish them .
“Tylyn is friendly, professional, and wonderful with my dog! She's punctual, sends me updates, and I know my dog will get a great walk in while she's with him. Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I have had a dog for 10 years, since I was 12, and she was a black lab and rhodesian ridgeback mix. She was a super energetic puppy and had to be played with and walked a lot. I got two cats at the very beginning of 2022 and I’ve taken care of them by myself since. I love playing with cats and giving them love. I will walk dogs at least twice a day, if not more. I currently work at Whole Foods Market and I typically work five days out of the week and work 7-2pm, and I will be home for the rest of the day. It will be super easy to fit the animals into my daily schedule. I have two cats to keep your animals company, but if your dogs don’t like cats then I will keep them separated. I will be walking your dogs at least twice a day, if not more. I will play with them as much as they like and I will follow any stipulations that the client would like to talk about.

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.

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!”
About: I bring 15+ years of professional experience in crisis intervention and behavioral health to every dog in my care — which means I’m especially good at reading stress, anxiety, and behavioral cues that other sitters might miss. I live on a spacious rural property with two resident dogs of my own, plenty of room to run, and XL crates set up for large and giant breeds. I’m confident and calm handling big, strong dogs, and I treat every pup like part of the family while they’re with me. Whether your dog needs a quiet, structured space or some extra patience working through anxiety, I’ve got both the background and the room to make it happen. I work a full-time job during the week, but pet care is built into my daily routine — mornings before work and evenings after are dedicated to walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m fully available for boarding and daycare on weekends, and since I live on-site at my property full-time, dogs in my care are never left alone for long stretches. Because my schedule is steady and predictable, your dog gets consistent care at the same times every day — not rushed, last-minute visits. My property is rural and spacious, giving dogs plenty of room to roam safely away from traffic and busy streets. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to welcoming new dogs into the pack. For dogs who need crate time or a calmer introduction, I have XL crates set up specifically for large and giant breeds. With 15+ years of professional experience in behavioral health and crisis intervention, I’m trained to catch stress and anxiety cues early — so small issues get handled before they become big ones.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and other animals. While I was stationed at Fort Polk, many of my fellow Soldiers would go on leave, travel home for the holidays, or be away for training. Since I stayed in Louisiana and did not travel because I purchased my home here, I was often happy to help by caring for their pets. 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.
