Personalized care for your dog or cat - Grand Coteau
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Grand Coteau
“Kimmy & Michael were very welcoming and clear about everything. This was especially important to us because we had never boarded a dog before. Their set up is home-based and limited in numbers of dogs they accommodate at any one time. They have routines that make the dogs feel safe and comfortable. And they communicate daily about happenings and how the dogs are doing. We are boarding again soon and I have the feeling that our pup will be excited to go back to Kimmy and Michael's.”
“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.”
“My Fritz now has a safe home away from home. Susan went over and beyond to make sure Fritz felt right at home. Safe environment and loving environment for my little guy. Thank you so much Susan.”
“Mrs. Candy is awesome couldn’t ask for a better sitter! She made Bailey feel right at home and I received lots of pictures during her stay. I’ll definitely be using her again! I highly recommend!”
“Roger was amazing, he took great care of Rico. I get a little nervous, when I leave Rico at a sitter, but I was extremely comfortable. Roger was great, hopefully he will always be available, when we go out of town. 5star”
“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!”
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.
“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!”
“Vanessa is awesome! Every time we go out of town Vanessa is the only one I feel comfortable leaving them with. It’s a fun, safe place for them to visit and enjoy themselves.”
“An amazing sitter. I went on a 5 day cruise and was so nervous about leaving my fur baby with anybody. Thankfully, Tenashia took my very last minute request and the experience was a 10/10. Very responsive when I checked in on him. She cared for my dog as if he were hers, and I couldn’t be happier. Super friendly, when I met her I knew my baby was in good hands. Will definitely book again.”
“Zoe was fantastic! It’s very obvious that Zoe loves pets, .. and birds.. and squirrels. It’s an animal oasis! I was so very pleased to see the care and love she gave to my sweet pup Clover. I highly recommend Zoe and when you bring your sweet pup to her, you too will be writing a great recommendation!. Great care should be recognized! 🐾”
“Karyn graciously accepted a last minute booking and was wonderful to work with. She took the time to send multiple videos of Bear to reassure us that he was in good hands for the night and was settling in and getting along with her pup Dakota and her long term stay Stella.”
“Brianna took great care of our fur babies and sent lots of pics/videos to keep us updated daily! She cared for them like they were her own. I would highly recommend her to sit/care for your own.”
“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!”
About: I've been in love with animals all my life. They were deep childhood friends and I feel a special bond with them. I grew up on a hobby farm and in 4-H. I am now a retired RN, and I'm enjoying being surrounded by animals again. I have taken care of domesticated cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and gerbils, guinea pigs, and birds. Any animal needing help or love grabs my heart. It is my goal to give this love to your cherished companion when you are gone. I also know how hard it can be for you to be separated from your pet, and am very conscientious about sending updates, pictures/videos and communicating anything else that needs to be communicated. I am working part time, and have afternoons, evenings and weekends available. I am hoping to build up a regular client base and have more time available soon. I live in a small home so I prefer to take care of your loved ones in your home. I am able to overnight: house-sitting, cleaning, and pet-sitting. I have plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and play-time on the days I am working, and welcome all-day care in your home on my time off. I am situationally aware and keep an eye on the environment at all times when walking your pup and playing, as well as on any potential escape routes or hazardous items if eaten or drunk. I am very respectful of your pet's space and routine and take my time to sense in to what will make them feel the most loved, the safest, and the most comfortable while you are gone. I am a reliable communicator regarding anything with your home or your pet that would require your attention.
“I cannot say enough about how wonderful Laurie was with my fur loves while I had to travel out of state. She took great care of them and me by sending reassurances that they were happy with updates and photos. Laurie is an angel and I highly recommend her for your pet care.”

I will care for the pets however the pet parents want because I know some pets are different from others. I will provide walks, medication, food, water, love, etc. I will also provide pet parents photo updates 3x a day or whenever they are requested!!
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.
“Dominique was so great! And my dogs loved her right away. She arrived exactly when she said she would and kept me up-to-date on how everything was going! I will definitely use Dominique again.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats my entire life and have experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. From playful kittens to senior cats, I understand the importance of providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I’m familiar with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, administering basic care, recognizing changes in behavior, and giving each cat the patience and attention they need to feel secure. I genuinely love being around cats and treat every one as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of care, affection, and companionship while their owners are away. 🐾💛
“She definitely gave me peace of mind for my furbies!!!!! And also kept me informed of their needs beforehand so I could order anything if need be. Will definitely be using her again! P.s. she even took out the trash I forgot about before I left! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛”
About: I’ve had pets as long as I can remember. My family has rescued, adopted, and bought animals of all kinds. We have chickens, ducks, and bunnies. I’ve raised my current dog(goldendoodle) from a seven week puppy, and I’m also currently helping raise a orphaned kitten. I have experience with dogs with disability’s and injuries as well. My shih tzu(family dog) went through a hard journey before us finding him. When we rescued him, he was injured and needed a delicate hand. I nurtured him back to health, and he is doing better than ever now living his best life in the country. I currently only work a part time job that’s under 10 hours a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to spoil and spend time with your furbabies when you are away😊 I can assure you that your furbaby will be as safe as possible whenever he or she is under my care. I have no problem if they need extra attention, extra instructions to care for them, etc. Whatever they need, we will work something out to make sure they are as safe and happy as possible.
About: I live a very active lifestyle (running and hiking are my primary hobbies) and most of my time spent with your dog will reflect that. Lots of play time! I have a 3 year old border collie who loves making new friends. Great for energetic dogs whose owners’ schedules aren’t flexible enough to take them out and burn their excess energy! Also able to accommodate dogs who are shy/nervous and need a quieter environment or one without other animals. even available for the holidays! Happy to care for dogs big and small, young and old. I can’t wait to meet my new furry friends! Available for boarding any time- I am available for walks and drop-ins after 5pm on weekdays. Likely available for all holidays as well if you’re out of town! I have a fenced in yard and an active dog to keep yours company! I can also keep them separated if you prefer as well.
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.
“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”
“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.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Grand Coteau
“Kimmy and Michael were awesome and sent multiple pictures even though my dog was only with them during the day. I had movers at my house who stayed later than expected but Kimmy and Michael were super flexible with the pick up time which was a lifesaver. They have a large yard and my dog came home exhausted!”

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.

I am happy to take your dog on walks, feed and play with them, and give them snuggles if they like that.

I have a fenced yard and a canopy which provides lots of shade. I always go outside with the dogs so I can pick up poop.

About: I’ve been drawn to dogs, horses, cats, and pretty much any animal with four legs (well even the ones that only have 3 limbs and are rescues) since I was little. I’ve never not had some sort of rescue dog. I am used to taking care of special needs and making sure animals get lots of attention and love. I am asked by friends and neighbors to take care of walking, feeding, and loving their pets while away. I haven’t met a dog/cat that I haven’t fallen in love with. I am also available to walk your dog daily. I stay at home with my father who is 80 years old in a four bedroom house. Your pet will get round the clock attention with frequent exercise, petting and feeding with your schedule requests. Your pet will be very loved and well taken care of. I am also experienced with special needs with medications or modifications that you may have. Your animal can spend time in the house and I also have a large fenced in yard. If an indoor pet your animal will have their own room (I have two extra bedrooms). If you prefer they can sleep in my room on pet pillows. I will take your pet on walks and they will also have a large backyard to explore. My dog (Copper) will stay with my father if I am going to your home. Light housekeeping and meal prep are available if needed for an additional fee.

I have worked with a pitbull rescue in the past, volunteered at rescue events and shelters and my sister has been a vet tech for over a decade. 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: I have cared for and owned many cats and dogs during my lifetime. I have cared for them from early life until seniors who passed away. My last dog who was rescued from the Shelter at age 2 approximately. He had diabetes and I administered 2 injections of insulin to him daily for about 7 years. He lived to be about 15 years old. I am retired so have time to dedicate to caring for a pet. I try not to schedule any appointments away from home when caring for a pet in my house. I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood. I do not have any pets at this time so a guest pet would have plenty of attention.

This flexibility allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, potty breaks, and quality time with every pet. For the comfort of my cats, I’m unable to offer boarding in my home. I’m always happy to come to you instead and provide reliable, flexible care so your dog can stay relaxed in their own environment.
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.

About: Hello! My name is Eva, I’m new here, but I absolutely adore pups. I have two babies of my own. A little shitzu named Stormy and a mini Indian spitz named Winston. They are my world! Your pups are in great hands with me. I’m a stay at home wife. I am available most days and times! I am also available for weekend visits. Thank you so much for your consideration! I don’t currently offer boarding, but it may be something that I consider doing in the future for your furry friends and family. Thanks for understanding.
About: I love all dogs & animals in general. I treat them like they’re human. I am a very patient person & am here to give your pet my full attention. I grew up around animals my entire life & find this to be a dream job. I frequently watch/walk dogs for family friends & did not know this app existed. So excited to take care of so many new fluffy friends!!! Also, I do not do grooming but am willing to bathe your pet if they need to be, brush their coat, & other practical things! I am a very easygoing person & will do my best to make each experience wonderful for you & you pet, I cannot wait to become your next sitter! I have an open schedule as Rover is my full time occupation. I love filling my day with opportunities to meet new paw friends 🙂 I tend to the pets needs. If they need to burn energy we will play or go for a walk. I’ll follow whatever schedule(s) the owner provides & provide a relaxing environment.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets from bunnies to pitbulls. I started pet sitting through my friends and family. I’m excited to continue pet sitting on rover! I’m currently enrolled in college, and taking care of animals fits perfectly in my schedule. I’m free in the early mornings, between classes, and afternoons during weekdays and most weekends. Safety is the most important part of caring for pets. I will make sure they are in a safe environment and all of their needs are met.
About: Growing up with a French bulldog has gave me the experience to care for dogs. I also had experience caring for my sister's poodle puppy. I also help volunteer at Acadiana Animal Aid walking the pups! I am currently a student in college but I have a flexible class schedule as many of my classes end by 11:50! So this will allow me to be able to walk multiple dogs a day or many drop in visits! I can offer you pets a safe and trusting friend in your home and on walks. And I will make sure your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve had pets as long as I can remember. My family has rescued, adopted, and bought animals of all kinds. We have chickens, ducks, and bunnies. I’ve raised my current dog(goldendoodle) from a seven week puppy, and I’m also currently helping raise a orphaned kitten. I have experience with dogs with disability’s and injuries as well. My shih tzu(family dog) went through a hard journey before us finding him. When we rescued him, he was injured and needed a delicate hand. I nurtured him back to health, and he is doing better than ever now living his best life in the country. I currently only work a part time job that’s under 10 hours a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to spoil and spend time with your furbabies when you are away😊 I can assure you that your furbaby will be as safe as possible whenever he or she is under my care. I have no problem if they need extra attention, extra instructions to care for them, etc. Whatever they need, we will work something out to make sure they are as safe and happy as possible.
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.
About: I’ve taken care cats, dogs, and birds since I’ve been about 3 years old. I am currently a vet technician and I have 2 dogs and fours cats. They all get along together. I have a 60lbs husky and a 8lbs chiweenie who get along great and loves cats. I do offer nail trims and baths as well. I am very good at nail trims. Many people have relied on me to care for their animals. I have worked in professional places that do both animal care and boarding. I know the signs to look out for if needed. I have been medicating dogs and cats for the past three years. If any emergency was to rise then I know exactly where both emergency clinics are. I know that you’ll get the best care for your baby and that you’ll get updates daily from them. I’ll let you know how they are doing everyday, you’ll get a picture of them so you’ll be able to see for yourself that they’re having a blast. I work Monday- Friday 8-5. I get a lunch break from 12-1, and go home to let my dogs out to potty and get a little exercise before heading back to work for 1:30. I get off at 5 and go home and take care of my pets. I feed them all and of course let them out to go potty and get some exercise. I am off on the weekends, and I stay at home so it wouldn’t no problem to have a few fur babies over. I don’t have a new fence quite yet but I do walk the dogs frequently and let them play together inside and outside ,I have two dogs, two husky mixes who loves to play with other doggie. They both do get along with cats as I have 4 and my fourth one and my husky are absolutely the best of friends. I can go to a home if need be. I am vet technician. So I am well equipped to handle any kind of emergency situation. If your baby needs daily medications I know all the ways to give it safely. I am very good with nervous babies. I make sure that any pet that I watch does have their vaccines. If a Pet doesn’t have their vaccines then I will not watch them with other dogs. It would have to be in their home instead. I want to make sure everyone is safe. I do offer baths, and nail trims as well. I also offer a bit of grooming. Nothing professional but I can do simple trims, etc.
About: I’ve always loved animals and had pets of my own since I was a little girl. I’ve worked at an equine vet clinic and I volunteer at Acadiana Animal Aid. I am experienced with dogs and cats. I have 2 cats of my own and a horse. I am a bartender so my schedule is different every week. I will do my best to keep my monthly schedule updated on the app. If you are unsure of my availability you can shoot me over a message! I have two cats, Thor and nugget. I also have a horse, Semira, that I care for daily. Doing tasks such as cleaning the litter box, feeding, and grooming and administering medicine when needed.
About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained! Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy nap, I always cater to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need extra TLC. I understand that every pet is family, and I treat them like my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or just someone to spoil them while you’re away, I’m here to help! I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to their routine. My availability varies, but I always make sure to prioritize the pets in my care, giving them the time and attention they deserve! I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for, whether in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep their pet happy and at ease. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have two friendly dogs to keep them company, as well as a safe and welcoming environment. I also have a crate available if needed. My goal is to provide an stress-free, loving experience for every pet.

“Kimmy & Michael were very welcoming and clear about everything. This was especially important to us because we had never boarded a dog before. Their set up is home-based and limited in numbers of dogs they accommodate at any one time. They have routines that make the dogs feel safe and comfortable. And they communicate daily about happenings and how the dogs are doing. We are boarding again soon and I have the feeling that our pup will be excited to go back to Kimmy and Michael's.”
“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.”
“Mrs. Candy is awesome couldn’t ask for a better sitter! She made Bailey feel right at home and I received lots of pictures during her stay. I’ll definitely be using her again! I highly recommend!”
“Roger was amazing, he took great care of Rico. I get a little nervous, when I leave Rico at a sitter, but I was extremely comfortable. Roger was great, hopefully he will always be available, when we go out of town. 5star”
“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!”
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.
“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!”

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.
