“Highly recommend!! I had to leave for about a week for a wedding and had to leave my puppy with a sitter. I was so nervous to do so since I hadn’t left her for so long. Carol kept me updated and sent images along with them! I am grateful to have a lovely sitter for my beloved puppy. ?”
“I left my two dogs with Margaret for a long weekend and will never use anyone else. She sent pictures and updates throughout the trip and they had so much fun. Definitely going back to her.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“Kenya took care of our Milo for 9 days while we were out of the country. And she was so awesome with him. She often sent us updates and pictures in regards to Milo while we were so far away. I really appreciated that so much! We will certainly book Kenya again! I wish I could give her more than 5-stars.”

“I appreciate Savannah so much for watching my baby while we went away on a trip. This was my first time EVER leaving Brownie with anyone that long. We just relocated to Youngsville so I scrambled to find someone to watch her while we were gone & I couldn’t have chosen anyone better. Savannah did so good with Brownie. I wanted to make sure I chose someone that would care about her in the same manner I do. She gave lots of cuddles, play time, and personal care as she started her “period” the day we were dropping her off to Savannah. She didn’t have any issues with changing her diapers or anything. She’s awesome with communication! I received so many pics & videos while out of town, so that really put me at ease. Thank you again Savannah for loving on Brownie girl. We will book with you again for our next getaway.”

“Jennifer is awesome! She provided pictures, was so communicative & so kind! Dropping my boy off, I was hesitant, as it was my first time using Rover, and she made all my worries go away! This was a last minute booking and she was SO accommodating and friendly. Back yard, other dogs, treats, toys… a pup’s dream! my doggy was worn out for nearly 2-3 days after!!!! I will absolutely utilize Jennifer’s wonderful care again! Thank you!!!!”

“Deb was great with my Border Collie! Did an amazing job keeping her active and keeping me updated. My dog will definitely be looking forward to staying with her again!”

“We stumbled upon Courtney last minute before our trip to Rosemary beach. We had interviewed our 7mo old puppy for Camp Bow Wow the day prior and we’re just horrified that anyone would board their dog there. Courtney was super quick to respond to our messages and gave us lots of info about her and her services over the phone. When we did a meet and greet the next day, our pup vibes with her and her son immediately!! They had a clean home and BIG pet friendly backyard. After meeting her in person we knew they were the perfect option for our pup while we were away. Maverick (our dog) had a cough before we dropped him off with Courtney, and his symptoms just got worse. Courtney took him to the emergency vet for us on a Sunday and made sure he was properly seen and cared for! She’s gone so out of her way to treat our boy like her own and it really shows! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing a safe, reliable, communicative and loving place for their dog to stay while they are away! Thank you Courtney!”

“Kelly was an excellent choice to watch Hoss for a couple of days while I was out of town. She was quick to respond and offered a very flexible schedule as it related to drop-off/pick-up options. We've already been in discussions for the next booking, would recommend.”

“Lisa was absolutely wonderful with Gracie! Gracie warmed up to her and her pups right away. Great communication and sent daily pics, a video, and updates about my girl. Highly recommend as Gracie received lots of love and care! :)”

“I felt so secure leaving Oso with JC! She communicated perfectly, always responded in a timely manner, sent photos and updates on how he was getting along with others. I will 100% be bringing Oso back to her whenever I travel. Usually Oso can’t get away quick enough from people that watch him, but he hung around and wanted her to pet him when she came to drop him off. She has such good energy, very knowledgeable about all dogs, and I could tell Oso felt like he went on vacation with her!”

“I can’t say enough about Emily! She watched both of my pups while I was away on vacation and they were sooo loved! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be boarding with her in the future.”

“This was my first time leaving Toto at home with anyone outside of family, and Lauren immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease knowing he was in good hands. She took great care of him, and Toto took to her right away, even laying on her and relaxing. It was clear he felt safe and happy. He spent the evening playing, cuddling, and getting plenty of rubs. I’m so grateful for the care she showed him and would absolutely trust her with Toto again.”


“Julie was FANTASTIC!!! She was extremely communicative before and during the sitting, and was very generous and flexible with respect to dropoff and pickup times. We instantly felt at ease when we met Julie, and we were confident our pup would be in the most excellent and caring hands! It is evident that Julie loves dogs and is a natural with them. Our dog warmed up to her immediately! We especially appreciated the picture and video updates- it helped us so much while we were away missing our dog! We will absolutely use Julie again in the future and will recommend her to others we know!”

“Leroy was fired up for his play date! Madison was on time and kept me informed on everything my pup was doing. I could tell Leroy had a great time, he was exhausted when I got home from work! Look forward to having her come by in the future.”

When first entering an environment, it's important to take a mental note of any hazards that could be a danger to the animal. Any hazards being, loose metal wires they could chew, or foods that may be dangerous to them. Examining a new environment is also important. Always making sure to not have any allowed guests inside the customers house is very important part of great service as well, to instill that trust that the client has put in you for their furry loved one!

“This was our pups’ first time away from us and Jennifer was so great with them! We have a longer boarding stay coming up and wanted to see how they would do beforehand. She was so patient with my anxious boy and helped them both settle in in their own time. They were running around and playing by the end of the stay! She was also really communicative and kept us updated often with lots of photos. I’m incredibly picky about who watches my dogs, but after today, I have no reservations about leaving them in Jennifer’s care. They’ll be seeing her again soon!”

“I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with Jena as a dog caregiver through the Rover app. Jena took care of my six-month-old puppy, Luna, for her first dog daycare adventure, and I couldn’t be more pleased. Jena’s care for Luna was outstanding – her attention to Luna’s needs and her nurturing approach made Luna’s first experience truly special. The regular updates and communication from Jena provided me with peace of mind throughout the day. Jena’s professionalism, combined with her genuine love for animals, made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Luna not only received excellent care but also seemed genuinely happy in Jena’s company. I wholeheartedly recommend Jena to the Rover community.

My focus is always on comfort and communication: you’ll get updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and strive to create a calm, positive experience for them every visit. Let’s make sure your pet feels at home, even when you’re not there. Even with a full-time job, I keep a consistent pet-care schedule built around early mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings, ensuring reliable visits and quality time with every pet. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine exactly for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so they stay comfortable and stress free. I keep their space tidy, offer lots of attention, and send consistent updates so you always know how they’re doing.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, snakes, you name it. Proven ability to provide the proper care for the pets as stated by family, friends, and neighbors! I have a flexible schedule as I work and am in school only part time. I love spending my free time with pets, it is my passion! It depends on the service you are signing up for but I have an acre of land with a fenced in yard that the pets can roam on. I also have a two story roomy house they will have access to!
About: With a background in caring for dogs from a family breeder, I understand the unique needs of puppies and adult dogs alike. I’ve helped raise litters, manage feeding schedules, and ensure safe socialization in a home environment. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, grooming, or adhering to specific routines, I prioritize your pet’s health, happiness, and comfort. What I Offer: ✔️ Breeder-Level Care: Experience with puppies, including crate training, potty routines, and early socialization. ✔️ Tailored Attention: Comfortable following detailed care instructions (diet, exercise, medications). ✔️ Safe & Loving Environment: Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—no detail is overlooked! I’m passionate about treating every pet like family and providing updates so you’re always in the loop. Let’s chat about how I can support your furry friend! My availability for pet care is centered around my days off—Thursday through Saturday—where I provide dedicated, all-day support for walks, playtime, or overnight stays. While I typically work overnight shifts Sunday through Wednesday (7:30 PM–6:00 AM), I can also accommodate flexible Sunday bookings before my shift begins, such as morning walks or midday check-ins. This schedule allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs with undivided attention during my free days, ensuring they receive consistent care and companionship. Having worked with family breeders, I understand the importance of routine and am committed to tailoring visits to your pet’s unique schedule, whether it’s a quick potty break or a weekend-long adventure! As a devoted pet mom to two pitbulls, I understand the importance of routine, safety, and personalized attention. In my own home, I prioritize structured feeding times, daily exercise tailored to energy levels, and crate training (if needed), all while fostering a calm, loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I mirror this approach by respecting their space and routines—whether it’s sticking to specific diets, administering medications, or maintaining play and walk schedules. My experience with strong, energetic breeds like pitbulls has taught me to read body language carefully, ensure secure environments, and provide patient, positive reinforcement. I treat every home with the same care as my own, sending regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and trust are my top priorities, no matter where we are!

About: I would love to be a sitter and playmate for your dog or cat. Animals are therapy for me and is I'd love to earn a little money helping you out. I've had the three dogs in my life, Queen, Smoky and King. I worked at Petsmart for two years and helped open the first location in Louisiana. I left to attend LSU and I got my Bachelors of Science in Agricultural Business where my love of animals expanded. I am knowledgeable about dogs, pets and animals and I love to learn more. I absolutely love dogs and animals and would love to make friends with your pet. I'm flexible and fun and would really like to be there for your family. My home is pet friendly and just waiting for fury guests. I am applying to graduate school so I am usually at home and I do some work from home so my availability is super flexible.

I love to walk and explore the city so basically if needed I know how to wear dogs out. I am very good at allowing dogs to be who they are and anticipate their needs and wants. .
About: I have loved animals ever since I was in elementary. I have had 5 Dogs, from a German Shepard to a little Yorkie Poodle mix. Currently I have 2 Guinea Pigs and 2 Leopard Geckos and a beautiful cat named karma. Family members and friends have asked me to look after their fur babies for days and entrusted them with me. I give my all when watching the fur babies and treat it as if they were mine. :) I am currently a full time college student, I am studying marine biology and plan to use that degree to go to a veterinarian School. While I may have classes in the morning and late afternoon, I have plenty of time to look after the beautiful fur babies you trust me with. When first entering an environment, it's important to take a mental note of any hazards that could be a danger to the animal. Any hazards being, loose metal wires they could chew, or foods that may be dangerous to them. Examining a new environment is also important. Always making sure to not have any allowed guests inside the customers house is very important part of great service as well, to instill that trust that the client has put in you for their furry loved one!

I'm available during mornings and evenings but completely available during the weekend. However, I'm always willing to work around your schedule. I have a friendly Siberian Husky I care for on my own. He is crate-trained but he is well-behaved enough to roam freely in my space. I take him on walks twice a day on the trail around my apartment complex. My Husky has been raised around all kinds of dogs and is very adaptable to strangers.

“I left my two dogs with Margaret for a long weekend and will never use anyone else. She sent pictures and updates throughout the trip and they had so much fun. Definitely going back to her.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“Kenya took care of our Milo for 9 days while we were out of the country. And she was so awesome with him. She often sent us updates and pictures in regards to Milo while we were so far away. I really appreciated that so much! We will certainly book Kenya again! I wish I could give her more than 5-stars.”

“I appreciate Savannah so much for watching my baby while we went away on a trip. This was my first time EVER leaving Brownie with anyone that long. We just relocated to Youngsville so I scrambled to find someone to watch her while we were gone & I couldn’t have chosen anyone better. Savannah did so good with Brownie. I wanted to make sure I chose someone that would care about her in the same manner I do. She gave lots of cuddles, play time, and personal care as she started her “period” the day we were dropping her off to Savannah. She didn’t have any issues with changing her diapers or anything. She’s awesome with communication! I received so many pics & videos while out of town, so that really put me at ease. Thank you again Savannah for loving on Brownie girl. We will book with you again for our next getaway.”

“Jennifer is awesome! She provided pictures, was so communicative & so kind! Dropping my boy off, I was hesitant, as it was my first time using Rover, and she made all my worries go away! This was a last minute booking and she was SO accommodating and friendly. Back yard, other dogs, treats, toys… a pup’s dream! my doggy was worn out for nearly 2-3 days after!!!! I will absolutely utilize Jennifer’s wonderful care again! Thank you!!!!”

“We stumbled upon Courtney last minute before our trip to Rosemary beach. We had interviewed our 7mo old puppy for Camp Bow Wow the day prior and we’re just horrified that anyone would board their dog there. Courtney was super quick to respond to our messages and gave us lots of info about her and her services over the phone. When we did a meet and greet the next day, our pup vibes with her and her son immediately!! They had a clean home and BIG pet friendly backyard. After meeting her in person we knew they were the perfect option for our pup while we were away. Maverick (our dog) had a cough before we dropped him off with Courtney, and his symptoms just got worse. Courtney took him to the emergency vet for us on a Sunday and made sure he was properly seen and cared for! She’s gone so out of her way to treat our boy like her own and it really shows! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing a safe, reliable, communicative and loving place for their dog to stay while they are away! Thank you Courtney!”

“Kelly was an excellent choice to watch Hoss for a couple of days while I was out of town. She was quick to respond and offered a very flexible schedule as it related to drop-off/pick-up options. We've already been in discussions for the next booking, would recommend.”

“Wonderful as always...Chelsy is so attentive to our baby and keeps us informed with pics and texts. Really appreciate how much she cares about Sweet pea and treats her as if she is her own.”

“I felt so secure leaving Oso with JC! She communicated perfectly, always responded in a timely manner, sent photos and updates on how he was getting along with others. I will 100% be bringing Oso back to her whenever I travel. Usually Oso can’t get away quick enough from people that watch him, but he hung around and wanted her to pet him when she came to drop him off. She has such good energy, very knowledgeable about all dogs, and I could tell Oso felt like he went on vacation with her!”

“I can’t say enough about Emily! She watched both of my pups while I was away on vacation and they were sooo loved! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be boarding with her in the future.”

“This was my first time leaving Toto at home with anyone outside of family, and Lauren immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease knowing he was in good hands. She took great care of him, and Toto took to her right away, even laying on her and relaxing. It was clear he felt safe and happy. He spent the evening playing, cuddling, and getting plenty of rubs. I’m so grateful for the care she showed him and would absolutely trust her with Toto again.”


“Julie was FANTASTIC!!! She was extremely communicative before and during the sitting, and was very generous and flexible with respect to dropoff and pickup times. We instantly felt at ease when we met Julie, and we were confident our pup would be in the most excellent and caring hands! It is evident that Julie loves dogs and is a natural with them. Our dog warmed up to her immediately! We especially appreciated the picture and video updates- it helped us so much while we were away missing our dog! We will absolutely use Julie again in the future and will recommend her to others we know!”

“Emma was awesome! She was extremely thoughtful and did everything we requested with our puppy. You can tell she really cares, and frequently sent us updates with pictures and videos! Our dog had a great time!”

“Emily was amazing with Zane. Another dog sitter from Rover cancelled 4 hours before I was to bring Zane to her home. So I looked through Rover again and found Emily. She was very accommodating as Zane is sometimes needy due to me spoiling him ?”

About: I’ve been fostering and volunteering with dogs for years, so I’m comfortable with all kinds. I really enjoy training too, whether it’s playing ball, doing some basic obedience work, or just sitting and creating a relaxed state of mind. I’m good at reading cues and making sure the dogs feel safe while they’re with me. Options include field play time, scent games, recall work, and a slat-mill for burning energy inside during the hottest months. I am certified by Animal Behavior College and have been training at Larry Benoit's facility for about 6 months. I care for all of the dogs just like my own! I have many dogs here and allow friends to play. I can also crate and rotate if you're not sure your dog will get along with others. When we train, we focus one on one!
“Elise was very professional yet warm and kind. I think our lab may have not wanted to come back home. I will definitely recommend Elise to anyone looking to get their best friend back in better condition than they were left. Will use here again in the future if she is available.”
