About: I’ve been very hands on with dogs for years, including raising and caring for my own pitbull, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes especially larger, high energy dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s personality and body language. I can also help reinforce basic habits like potty routines, leash manners, and calm behavior for younger dogs. I treat pets like they’re my own and focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for instead of just “watching” them. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and adjust to what they need, whether that’s extra playtime, reassurance, structure, or space. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m consistent with routines and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and always supervise pets during walks, playtime, and interactions with other dogs. I also have a smart camera in my home so I can keep an eye on pets if I step out briefly. For added safety and comfort, pets can be kenneled if needed or preferred by the owner.
“Bobbi and her mom were great with our two Maltese pups. We had to go out of town for a wedding and had never left our dogs with anyone before. Bobbi was great about sending pics and messages to assure us that they were happy and in good hands. If we ever need to leave them again, I'll contact Bobbi.”

About: Worked boarding cats and dogs since I was about 16 or 17 doing everything from boarding,play,daycare,food,bath,walk,brush teeth/fur,and meds just nothing shots just pills and anything else with boarding experiences pretty much.outside of the workplace though have experience with them before that as well as other animals I've helped rescue and re-home cats and other animals.you name it I probably have experience or at least love the animals or even bug you name lol
About: Ever since I was Itty bitty I have always adored animals. I was the kid bringing home strays every chance I got to make sure they found a loving home. In high-school I interned at a vet. This gave me knowledge and experience walking, feeding, administering medication, and understanding the behaviors of the animals around me. I am now an Army veteran and will be a full time student come the fall semester. This gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your precious babies the highest quality care so you can feel confident and secure that all of their needs are being met while youre away. I have 1 dog and 5 cats of my own all with their own quirks, personalities, and detailed instructions I give to my own sitters when needed. Rest assured that there is not much your pets could need that I am not up for! I am moving from out of state and starting school in the fall, so during the summer I will have complete availability while settling into our new home! Due to having so many cats, I will not be offering boarding/sitting in my own home. However for house sitting, walking, and drop ins I am happy to follow any and all detailed instructions and will send plenty of photos for your peace of mind!
“Jessica was absolutely exceptional with our boys. I have two senior cats one of which needs both liquid medicine and a pill twice a day. This was our first time leaving him since he started his medicine regimen and Jessica was wonderful. 10/10 recommend!”
“Thank you for taking care of our cats while we went on vacation. We appreciated it very much and loved getting pictures of out cats daily and texts about how they were doing.”
“Lauren was excellent with our pets. She tracked down the shy one, was patient with the anxious one and took time to give them the care they needed while we were away.”
About: I don’t just “watch” animals — I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for the entire time you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, personalities, and little details because I truly want every pet to receive the best care possible. Your pets will be treated like family, with lots of love, patience, and attention every step of the way. I’m currently working a part-time job Wednesday–Saturday, typically until around 5 PM, which still gives me plenty of time to dedicate to the animals in my care. I make it a priority to ensure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, walks, love, and proper care throughout the day. On my days off, I also have an even more open and flexible schedule to spend quality time with them and accommodate their needs. I am moving into college in mid August to Niceville, Florida so bookings can be from May through early August and I will often be back in Louisiana from time to time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always strive to keep their routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own environment, so I make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, meals, and care based on their specific needs and routine. I’m also very respectful, responsible, and attentive while in clients’ homes, and I make communication a priority by providing updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.
“Tegan was so good with my girls. Sophie was the most friendly and excited to see Tegan. Lulu will take some time but she didn’t run on the last day. I will definitely get Tegan again to take care of them.”
About: I’ve worked at a homeless animal shelter for 10 years and owned my own animals my whole life. I’ve handled every kind of animal under the sun! And can’t wait to love your pet like they are my own!
About: I've grown up with many types of pets throughout my entire life. I love animals and have been a volunteer at Northshore Humane Society since 2020, where I have experience walking, playing with, cleaning after, and even assisting in veterinary care with dogs. I especially love teaching new tricks and playing with them. I also have experience with reptiles and cats. I currently have a 9-year-old border collie and take him on walks and play with him for hours every day. He's a very active dog and I enjoy being active with him, as well as grooming him and interacting with him through any and all means. I love all dogs, but my favorite breed is the doberman! I also have a black cat named Breezepelt (named after my favorite book character), and a mexican black kingsnake named Asclepius! How I care for your pet depends on the specific needs and wants of the pet and what you as the owner would like. If I am house sitting, I am willing to play with, take outside, and walk with your pet as much as is desired. I have both leads and retractable leashes if you would like me to use my own. I am comfortable with crating if so desired. I will be keeping a constant eye on your pet and will ensure their safety to the upmost degree.
“Caroline was excellent; very dependable! She dropped in on my 2 cats every day for 5 days and it was clear that they loved her. She took many photos of each visit along with a brief status update, which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely book her again in the future! Thanks, Caroline!”
“Gabrielle was such a joy to work with. Very communicative and always pleasant. She was reliable, and even brought in our mail! We have 2 kittens less than a year old. They were abandoned as kittens and not very trustful, but they warmed up to her very quickly! Everything went very smoothly, and we are rebooking her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Reece! I am deep lover of all cats (especially black cats). I have had cats since I can remember. I currently have two furbabies named Binx and Louis.

“Sawsan is the sweetest and will take such great care of your puppy like it’s her own. Lyla had so much fun playing all weekend, she was so exhausted when we got home. 5 out of 5 stars!”
“I was nervous to leave my quirky dogs with a stranger, but Tyler quickly put my pets and me at ease. He took the dogs on a walk early on, to make them feel at home. He has a large, secure backyard, that the dogs loved. He let the pets be part of his day and provided good feedback about the pups. Thanks Tyler!”
About: I’ve been a dog and cat lover for as long as I can remember and understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. My goal is to make your furry family member feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I live on a spacious half-acre lot in a quiet neighborhood, giving dogs plenty of room to run, explore, and play. My home features a large doggy door, so your pup can easily go outside whenever they want. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, belly rubs, or simply lounging around, they’ll receive plenty of attention and care throughout their stay. I share my home with Jake, my friendly yellow Labrador Retriever. He’s very laid-back, loves other animals, and is happy to welcome new friends. To provide a calm, personalized experience, I only accept one client family at a time. This means your pet won’t have to adjust to a house full of unfamiliar dogs and will receive my full attention. For everyone’s safety, I have young children in the home and can only accept dogs that are friendly and non-aggressive around people and other animals (no pitbulls or pitbull mixes). I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am home most of the week. I also have two kids that are animal lovers. I’m able to adjust to whatever routine your pet is used to. My kids have learned to respect animals’ boundaries. Your pet will be enjoying the comforts of being inside or outside of the house and get lots of attention.
“It was our first time using Rover and Nicole put me at ease throughout our communications and sent some lovely images throughout the day. Kenny was exhausted when we got him home, which is always a good sign - very happy with our first experience with Rover!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve cared for my families dogs as a child, and my own dogs when I got older with the addition of my daughters dog. I’ve always had a mutual connection with them and cared for them like my own children. I’m all about enriching the lives of pets and their families by providing excellent pet care, peace of mind, trust and security. Nurturing the inseparable bond between a person and their 'furbaby' by enriching their relationship with love. I have a pretty open availability schedule and will try to accommodate your requests to the best of my ability depending on timing and distance. I currently do not have any dogs at my house, so they can enjoy all my attention and playtime. I also have a nice backyard that they can play and run around in. When doing a dog service at the pets home I like to get familiar with them so they can feel comfortable and be their usual sweet selves!

About: I have a standard size golden doodle and he is so affectionate so i know how it feels to leave your dog somewhere but here my goal is to provide the best at home care for your doodle/poodle. I have had a lot of trouble finding a suitable place for him because he doesn't love to be in the crate, he needs love all the time and want to be involved in everything as a family so if your dog is similar, i am the perfect match. i work from home and i dont believe in ever leaving my dog alone at home so basically i am always home to take care of your fur baby. I have a fenced yard and a standard size happy golden doodle to give company to your doodle/poodle. We have a free roaming environment at home with lots of backyard fetch and other games but can-do crate if you need. i dont like the idea of leaving my dog in the boarding day cares available because my dog doesnt feel comfortable and i dont either so i give a free home like environment with the air conditioned always running and me always availble at home. Hypoallergenic and friendly dogs only.
About: Patience and empathy are a major part of my approach to animals in general. I have realized that these beautiful creatures respond well to me because my love does not come with any strings. I have a Jack Russell Terrier named Kameha and a cat named Sushi. They are my world. Sushi's mother was a stray cat and not in good shape. I helped her heal and she ended having Sushi and several other kittens. Kameha was rescued from a bad home and she had worms as a puppy. Now she is full of life. My values include but are not limited to: safety, integrity, responsibility, respect, and dependability. I am entrepreneur and full time father and I am looking for supplemental income. Thank you for your time and consideration.
About: Hey y’all, I’m Holly! I’m a full-time dog sitter, boarding host, and obedience trainer living the farm life just outside the city. About 15 years ago, I traded the hustle and bustle for more space, privacy, and a dog-centered lifestyle—and now my partner Isaac and I have built our home around exactly that. We offer boarding and daytime playgroups in a secure, home-based setting with the amenities you’d expect from a large boarding facility, but with the comfort, attention, and personal care of a private home. Our farmhouse sits on a securely fenced acre, giving dogs room to safely play, explore, decompress, and enjoy their stay. Dogs are truly life here. In addition to boarding and training, I serve as the Program Director of a New Orleans-based dog rescue specializing in high-medical-need dogs. Because of that, I’m very comfortable administering medications, injections, fluids, specialty diets, and handling dogs who need extra patience or experience. I also have trusted veterinarians on speed dial should anything urgent ever come up. I have extensive experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from feral strays and high-drive working breeds to seniors, puppies, tiny Poodles, nervous dogs, and everything in between. Baths, light grooming, crate routines, structured play, and special care instructions are all no problem. Basic obedience training packages are also available for dogs who could use a little extra polish during their stay. You're welcome and encouraged to take a look at our reviews - we pride ourselves on giving stellar care! If you’re looking for a safe, experienced, dog-savvy home where your pup will be treated like one of our own, we’d love to welcome them! I board dogs professionally from my home, so caring for them is part of my everyday routine — not something I squeeze in around another job. During the day, I run supervised playgroups in our secure yard and rotate dogs based on size, age, energy level, and personality. High-energy dogs get room to play, seniors get a calmer pace, and shy or sensitive dogs are given time to settle in comfortably. Everyone receives structured playtime, potty breaks, meals, treats, rest time, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. Our farmhouse sits on 3.5 securely fenced acres, tucked away from busy streets and set up with dogs in mind. This is a dog-centered home with plenty of space, toys, enrichment, and safe areas for both play and rest. Dogs are always supervised and thoughtfully matched with appropriate playmates. I take introductions, group dynamics, feeding routines, medications, and individual needs seriously so every dog can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during their stay.

I am fully available throughout the summer and have flexible daytime and evening hours. I am home most of the day, so I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care as needed. I can also adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine. One dog lives in my home and I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. I follow each pet’s routine closely and ensure a calm, supervised, and secure environment.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. Growing up with horses taught me responsibility, patience, attention to detail, and how to confidently care for animals with different personalities and needs. In addition to horses, I have experience pet sitting for dogs and cats throughout high school and beyond for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m also a proud dog owner to my dachshund, Pockets, who I absolutely adore as well as my two horses Jessie and Seven and my three miniature ponies, Lloyd, Peaches, and Peanut. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or dependable daily care, I treat every animal like they’re my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know what it means to be on vacation and know that your animals are in trusted hands, that piece of mind can make your trip so much more enjoyable and I’m here to make that happen! I have a flexible schedule and offer plenty of time, attention, and care for your pets! Since pet sitting is something I do alongside my post-grad career search, I'm available the majority of the time and can often accommodate different schedules. I do compete professionally in rodeos, which may occasionally have me out of town on some weekends, but | keep my calendar updated and communicate early so scheduling is easy and reliable. Your pet's comfort and routine will always be my top priority while they're in my care. I have a fenced-in yard and experience caring for animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to horses. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, i'll tailor my care to their needs, personality, and routine.

About: I’ve had my family dog, Princess, a Pomeranian-Papillon mix, since I was four years old. I was the one who named her, and she’s been my best friend ever since. I’ve cared for her through every stage of her life, from a playful puppy to now as a senior dog, so I understand that pets have different needs as they get older. Senior pets have a special place in my heart, and I’m always happy to give them the extra patience and love they deserve. As a college student, I’m home during school breaks, which means I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to dedicate to your pet. I’m also available during holiday breaks! During the academic year, though, I’ll be inactive while I’m away at college, so I only accept bookings when I’m home. I usually only take one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so they’ll get lots of one-on-one care and won’t have to compete for attention. I’ll stick to your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, and I ask that owners provide their pet’s food, medications (if needed), favorite toys, and any other essentials. If I’m caring for a cat, I’ll also need their litter box, litter, and other supplies. Communication is really important to me. I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates, and if you’re missing your pet, I’m even happy to FaceTime so you can check in. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart. As a college student, I’m home during school breaks, which means I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to dedicate to your pet. I’m also available during holiday breaks! During the academic year, though, I’ll be inactive while I’m away at college, so I only accept bookings when I’m home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I share my home with my senior dog, Princess. She’s older, independent, and usually keeps to herself, but I’ll always make thoughtful introductions and make sure everyone is comfortable. I only accept one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so I can give them my full attention and closely monitor their interactions. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’ll always make sure water is fresh, the environment is clean, and your pet feels safe and comfortable. If I ever notice anything unusual, I’ll let you know right away so you can have peace of mind.
About: Hi there amazing pet parents! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Since I was a teenager, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Professionally, I’ve worked at several kennels, volunteered at Tangi Humane Society & been a foster mom for Cajun Tails Rescue, worked at Hammond Veterinary Services, and I’m currently with Hickory Small Animal Hospital as I am also pursuing veterinary technician license.

About: I’m a friendly, dependable pet owner who understands just how much pets mean to their people. I am the primary caretaker of my own dog, Freddy, he’s 3 years old with lots of energy, friendly with other dogs and loves people. I regularly care for my sisters dog and 2 cats while she is out of town, maintaining their normal routines and care. I live in a condo in Mandeville which means I have become extremely familiar with the dog parks, walking trails, dog friendly nature areas and state parks. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, I treat every animal as if they are my own while providing photo and text updates so you can feel confident while you’re away!😊 Currently I am the office manager for a primary care clinic in Covington, M-F I am available before work, on my lunch break, and after work for drop ins or dog walking. My weekends are always changing and very flexible. I like caring for pets in their own home because that is where they feel most comfortable, following their normal routine and offering attention and companionship. On walks, I focus on your pets safety, energy level, and making sure they are well hydrated.
About: I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet! I have a deep love for all animals, but I have the most experience with dogs and some cats as I’ve been pet sitting since a young age. I’ve had dogs and cats as pets my entire life. I’ve also helped raised three litters of puppies. I work full time Monday through Friday, but I am off every other Friday and get home early afternoon on the Fridays that I do work. I am free most Saturdays and Sundays based on my calendar availability. Book me for your next long weekend! I currently work full time 30 minutes from my home. My work schedule is 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM Monday through Friday. I have every other Friday off so I do have availability for 3 day weekend care every other weekend! On the weekends, I typically stay in besides errands or the occasional going out to dinner. I have a large fenced yard for your love bug to enjoy. I also have two dogs (one large, one small) and a cat to keep your fur baby company! If necessary, I have four bedrooms to keep the animals separated.
About: l have volunteered at a homeless animal society for 10 years and had experience owing our own pets for my entire life! I am a full time pet owner and full time Mom! I Can’t wait to love on your fur babies and treat them like my own! My schedule is very flexible and will work around you! I would love to hear all about your pets likes,dislikes, Daily routine, etc! I will stay as close to their normal routine as possible! When I’m around your pet will be treated like they are my own! I will make sure they get everything that they need and will be there to monitor them throughout the stay.
About: I don’t just “watch” animals — I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for the entire time you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, personalities, and little details because I truly want every pet to receive the best care possible. Your pets will be treated like family, with lots of love, patience, and attention every step of the way. I’m currently working a part-time job Wednesday–Saturday, typically until around 5 PM, which still gives me plenty of time to dedicate to the animals in my care. I make it a priority to ensure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, walks, love, and proper care throughout the day. On my days off, I also have an even more open and flexible schedule to spend quality time with them and accommodate their needs. I am moving into college in mid August to Niceville, Florida so bookings can be from May through early August and I will often be back in Louisiana from time to time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always strive to keep their routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own environment, so I make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, meals, and care based on their specific needs and routine. I’m also very respectful, responsible, and attentive while in clients’ homes, and I make communication a priority by providing updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.
About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds but specifically medium to larger dogs like labradors, huskies, and German shepherds. I have been dog sitting ever since I was 14. Family, friends, and others. I have experience in dog sitting, walking and running with them, feeding, and bathing them as well. I have helped take care of many puppies and senior dogs too! I am a college student so I am pretty much free anytime outside of class which is generally anytime before 9 and after 4. I have multiple breaks throughout the day though, so I can walk, feed, or just check in on the pups when needed. I usually just ask how my clients interact with their dogs and do the same. Like where the dogs are allowed to go in the house or outside of it, any command words that they use often, how often they need exercise, etc. I have a lot of experience with different dogs and different dog owners so it looks different depending on the household.
About: Ever since I was Itty bitty I have always adored animals. I was the kid bringing home strays every chance I got to make sure they found a loving home. In high-school I interned at a vet. This gave me knowledge and experience walking, feeding, administering medication, and understanding the behaviors of the animals around me. I am now an Army veteran and will be a full time student come the fall semester. This gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your precious babies the highest quality care so you can feel confident and secure that all of their needs are being met while youre away. I have 1 dog and 5 cats of my own all with their own quirks, personalities, and detailed instructions I give to my own sitters when needed. Rest assured that there is not much your pets could need that I am not up for! I am moving from out of state and starting school in the fall, so during the summer I will have complete availability while settling into our new home! Due to having so many cats, I will not be offering boarding/sitting in my own home. However for house sitting, walking, and drop ins I am happy to follow any and all detailed instructions and will send plenty of photos for your peace of mind!
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them goes beyond just “watching dogs” for me! I spent nearly a year working at a doggy daycare, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, as well as energy levels-from playful 4 month old puppies to sweet senior dogs who just need a little extra patience and care. I grew up around dachshunds and dobermans my whole life, and I now have my own Dalmatian that I rescued from illegal breeding. I understand both high-energy breeds and animals with unique personalities. My experience in pet sitting, dog behavior, proper socialization, and enrichment allows me to provide care that is attentive, structured, and tailored to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, walks, mental stimulation, or simply a calm and restful environment, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for and loved while you are away. As a college student out for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. Aside from a job commitment one weekend a month, my availability is open for almost anything-walks, drop-ins, and daycare! Your pets comfort and safety are always my #1 priority. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming home where your dog can feel right at home. I make sure they have both companionship and personal space when needed. I have a room in my home with a tall baby gate dedicated for dogs where they can decompress, and nothing will bother them if they want their own space. I also have a very playful and friendly Dalmatian, Siggy, who loves having company around the house. I will always supervise if Siggy would be around your dog, including a safe and proper introduction of the two dogs and continuously watching them when they would be playing.
“Caroline is amazing! This was the first time we have left our dog in the care of someone other than family members. Caroline was perfect for our anxious and high energy dog. Caroline is so calm and professional. He quickly warmed up to her. I am sure he misses having his daily walks and check-ins with her. We highly recommend Caroline!”
“Anna was wonderful with my dog Aurora. They went for a walk around my neighborhood. Aurora is a very large dog and Anna did a great job maintaining and handling her. Aurora is still smiling after her walk. I will definitely ask Anna to walk Aurora in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Reece! I am a lover of all animals! I have always grown up with many animals (25 of them to be exact). Currently I have a black lab-bordie collie mix with plenty of energy! I am a physical therapy student and have some free time to care for your furbabies! I am used to both high energy and timid personalities. I am very interested in long walks for high energy dogs! I am currently a physical therapy student in LSUHSC, so I have a weird schedule l, but hopefully it fits with you! Right now, I am available all day Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Monday afternoons. Tuesday-Thursday late afternoon/ night. My schedule will be way more free on 7/30. I offer dog walking, petting sitting, or pet check ins. I prioritize dog walking services as they fit best in my schedule. I am super active, so I am able to walk/ run dogs up to 2 hours at a time if necessary. For pet sitting, I am type A and lovable sitter! I like to follow exact instructions from the owners because as a pet owner myself, I understand all pets have specific routines.
About: I have had almost a decade of experience with animals that have severe anxiety. I know how to approach any animal. Animals sense energy and I feel that I am able to provide great energy throughout them being in my care. I currently work “full time,” but I do have an off day and time off throughout the day to walk those fur babies or spend time! I can do in home visits if you let me know in advance and I am able to walk any time of night…days vary, but I can work around anything 24/7. I have before.

About: I’ve been very hands on with dogs for years, including raising and caring for my own pitbull, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes especially larger, high energy dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s personality and body language. I can also help reinforce basic habits like potty routines, leash manners, and calm behavior for younger dogs. I treat pets like they’re my own and focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for instead of just “watching” them. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and adjust to what they need, whether that’s extra playtime, reassurance, structure, or space. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m consistent with routines and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and always supervise pets during walks, playtime, and interactions with other dogs. I also have a smart camera in my home so I can keep an eye on pets if I step out briefly. For added safety and comfort, pets can be kenneled if needed or preferred by the owner.
“Bobbi and her mom were great with our two Maltese pups. We had to go out of town for a wedding and had never left our dogs with anyone before. Bobbi was great about sending pics and messages to assure us that they were happy and in good hands. If we ever need to leave them again, I'll contact Bobbi.”
“The most caring and considerate dog sitter I've experienced. My dog needs special attention during storms, and Lindsay is the only person I trust. I cannot review highly enough. She goes above and beyond to make my dog comfortable.”
