“Ella is like our child and we were nervous about leaving her for a week. Lauren and Cody treated Ella like a member of the family. We would absolutely trust them with our girl again. It was especially nice to have their children interact with Ella as she loves children.”
“Christie is phenomenal. I couldn’t have picked a better sitter for my yorkie, Teddy. I received so many pictures and updates throughout his stay. He was clean when I picked up and so happy. Thanks again for making things a breeze for our family.”
“Ms Crystal did an awesome job with my dogs. My dogs are high anxiety and aren’t okay staying with just anyone. I can tell they enjoyed themselves and felt at home. I would highly recommend Crystal!”
“Nicolette was very accommodating. We had to leave our two “boys” with her over a few hours with a flexible pickup time, due to work being done at our house, and she was able to handle that well. She was friendly and very straightforward about our dogs and how they fared.”
“Makayla was pleasant. She provided pictures while Bentley was in her care and was very responsive in answering questions (messages). I wasn’t sure how Bentley would do with other dogs but he was pictured with other dogs and that’s something that made me very happy to see. I will rebook with Makayla.”
“Jessica was great!! The day before we left for vacation, Harley ended up at the vet with an ear infection and was given meds. Jessica had no problem taking on that task while watching Harley! Harley was happy when I picked her up and slept the rest of the day when we got home! Harley will be back to visit for sure!!”
“Our dog Marley tends to be anxious in new situations since she was a shelter dog, but seemed comfortable in Amanda’s home the moment we walked in for drop off. It made me feel much better about leaving our newly adopted girl for over a week! She sent updates and pictures often while we were on vacation. Would not hesitate to use Amanda again for future dog sitting and will recommend her to my friends!”
“He took great care of Pi! I loved getting photo updates and he clearly took the time to make sure my anxious pup was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with him again.”
“Cosmo seemed to have the best time with Guybrielle and her family! He was exhausted when he came home which tells me he played, and played, and played some more! I look forward to booking in the future.”
“Jason did a great job watching our dog for the past 3 days! She got tons of play time cried when she had to leave. We are excited to book with Jason again in the future!”
“Mr. Leon was great, my 2 dogs looked like they were having a good time with the other dogs. They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”
“She was amazing! She sent me pictures of her and my fur baby and my Diamond started getting attached to her! She kept me updated the entire 4 days and I will definitely be returning if I need care again. I was nervous because it was my JRT's 1st time boarding but she made it super fun and relaxing for her! Thank you so much”
About: Need a break from ur furry friend? Whether it’s one day or Monday through Friday or somewhere in between, I got ur back! Ask me about other animals too🤩 This is a part time job for me to keep me busy during the week. I have epilepsy and cannot drive. I’d love to be able to have a job and this is my new dream 🤩❤️ I have a fenced in yard and one friendly cat named Whiskers. If you have any needs beyond those mentioned above feel free to request them in person.
“First time using Rover and I found the app easy to search for finding a sitter. I loved Angela C for taking such good care of my fur baby! She stayed in touch and sent pictures to me every few days! She was very consciencous about making sure he got all his meds. What a relief to know he was taken such good care of and joined her own dogs. THANKS ANGELA”
“Tracy was absolutely amazing with Rocky. She was so sweet and caring from the very beginning. She kept me updated the entire time, sending pictures and letting me know how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. Rocky came back home calm, happy, and not nervous at all, that says everything. I’m truly grateful for how well she took care of him. Highly recommend her and would definitely trust her again with Rocky”
“Keith was friendly, very communicative and our dogs loved staying with him! He is also an experienced dog trainer and made sure our dog took his medicine during their stay. We will be boarding with him again next time we go out of town and recommending him to friends. Thank you for taking such good care of Scully and Fisher!”
“Daylen was incredible! My dog Milli had the best time playing lots of fetch! Daylen sent tons of great photos that reassured me Milli was doing well with me being gone 💛”
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.

“My cats were very drawn to Mia as soon as she walked through the door!! She was very respectful of ky home and they seemed well taken care of in my absemve. I would definitely hire her again in the future!”
“As always, Michele was the most wonderful and intentional person to care for our sweet boy while we are gone. Our anxiety decreases so much when she’s going to visit and care for him that we are able to enjoy our time away. We love her!”
About: I’ve grown up around cats my entire life and have had 9 of my own, so I’m very comfortable with all types of personalities—from shy and independent to playful and affectionate. I’ve also been pet sitting for about 4 years, caring for cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure each cat gets the attention and care they need.
“Caydence was great with my two cats while I was out of town. She did drop-in visits and made sure they were both well taken care of—fed, litter box cleaned, and given attention. I really appreciated the updates and photos from each visit, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care for their pets.”
“Peace of Mind for My Five Cats! Kaitlyn has been an absolute blessing! As the owner of five cats, it gives me tremendous peace of mind knowing they are in such caring and capable hands when I'm away. She always follows instructions carefully, pays attention to the little details, and genuinely cares about my fur babies' well-being. Kaitlyn is friendly, dependable, professional, and always willing to help whenever I need her. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure my cats are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It's not easy finding someone you can completely trust with your pets and your home, but Kaitlyn has earned that trust many times over. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!!!”
About: What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and natural caregiving personality. As a future nurse currently studying at Southeastern, I’m very detail-oriented and comfortable following specific routines while paying close attention to any changes in behavior. I’m especially gentle with young pets who are still learning and need consistency. I also have a senior cat of my own, so I understand the extra patience, comfort, and attentiveness older pets need. Whether your pet is energetic or prefers a slower pace, I will care for them like they’re my own.
“Porsha is hands down the BEST Rover sitter we have ever hired! She was not only communicative while we were out, she went above and beyond her duties as a sitter. She made sure our trash can was brought in, mail checked daily and even made sure my pet’s mess was swept away before we made it home. I hope she’s available any time we are out of town. I know my fur baby is in the best hands when I’m gone.”
“My two cats seemed very content when I returned from my 5-day trip and I appreciated the pictures after every visit. Kaitlyn was also very friendly responsive anytime I had questions. I will definitely recommend her to friends and family in the area and book with her again myself.”
“Amanda is the absolute best! If you need a good pet sitter, I highly recommend you use her. She watched our cats while we were away, and they loved her. I never had to worry about anything because she sent great updates and pictures. She is so attentive and helpful. You and your pets will be so happy that you found her. We will definitely be using her again and recommending her to everyone we know.”

About: My dad is a veterinarian so I grew up surrounded by animals. I’ve had many pets throughout the years including turtles, chickens, rabbits and more. I’ve always loved being surrounded by and caring for animals. I currently have an 11 year old boxer and a young cat. I work for myself so I have the flexibility of making my own schedule and working from home during the week. I’m available for daycare or to leave my home as needed to provide walks and care for your pets! I have a spacious, fenced in yard so there’s plenty of room to run and play. My older dog is a sweetheart and a great companion to keep your fur babies company. My cat gets along great with other animals. He lives inside and out but mostly stays out.

Thank you for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for Ace.”

About: I have loved dogs since I was little. I have four fur babies of my own that I love with all my heart and soul.

I give the same care , love , patience and attentiveness to every dog !

I am in college full time however I am free everyday after 1pm . (Tuesdays , Thursdays and the weekend I am free all day:)) I am also very flexible so please don’t hesitate to ask questions !

About: They say that pets/animals know a good person when they see and smell them. There's not a pet home that I walk into and am not greeted with excitement after giving rubs and cuddles. I am currently transitioning to be a stay at home mom, but I would like to continue to help others in need. My days are flexible at this time. Between 8:00m-3:00pm and 4:00pm to 6:00pm on weekdays, I can move outside of the home freely. Times outside of the listed times, I need to be within my home. I havr a 9 year old daughter who is great with animals, and she will not be left with any unsupervised. I have a fenced in back patio and a semi-fenced in back yard. Animals are not allowed to be alone and off the leash if in the backyard exploring. They are free to roam around the patio and home if applicable.
“My apologies for this late review, but we are so grateful to Jessica for accommodating our travel schedules to watch Beau Kai for us. Beau Kai is pretty easy to deal with as long as he knows you're there within his reach. He was able to play with Jessica's puppy for company and was ready for day two. Jessica is just as laid back and understands the needs of our beloved fur ones. We will definitely reach her again in the near future! Blessings Jessica and thanks again! Don & KB Williams-Atlanta, GA”
About: Animals have always been the biggest aspect of my life! I’ve had a multitude of different types between the normal dog and cats to bigger animals like horses, cows, etc. I have so much love for them and I love to promote safe care in a world where it is hard to trust. I am my friends/coworkers/family go to for any pet care as well. I wake up about an hour before I leave and take care of my animals in the morning by feeding and letting them out for a while so they can run. I go to work and come home at around 12/1pm to let them out. I do kennel my dogs for their own safety and my peace of mind. I give her plenty of time outside of it when I am home. My partner gets home around 3 so he will let them out and run with them before I get home around 4:30. Once I make it home, I will cook dinner and play outside with them for bonding. I make sure to abide by the clients preferences. Their animals are under my care and I will do my best to insure a comfortable and safe environment. I treat them as my own in the way of love but will always be respectful of the boundaries.
“My boy had such a good day with Courtney!! He attached to her and made him a new bestie today. Very thankful she was able to accommodate me in my last minute needs! Would definitely trust her with my baby again in the future!!”
“Robin was wonderful! So responsive and communicative. I have never used a dog sitter before but I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with Robin in her home. She sent photo updates frequently and sent my puppy home with some goodies. We loved Robin!”
About: My husband and I have always had pets growing up. We knew we wanted this for our children as well. Our daughter and son love pets and would want a farm if we allowed it! I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings. Before I leave for work all pets are fed and taken outside. Upon returning home I let the pets out again for a bit longer to play in our fenced in yard. Mornings begin with food and water and a morning treat. Bella lets us know when she needs to go out by going to the patio door. During the day she is very chill and usually lays on the sofa waiting on the kids to return from school. When everyone is home from work and school Bella is fed again and everyone gets some snuggles in with her.
“My dog absolutely loved him. He was anxious the first day but Keith really helped him get comfortable and by the third day he was happily running inside, not sparing me a second glance. Would 100% have Keith watch my dog again.”
“Lauren has a nice house and good sized back yard to accommodate her Rover dogs. This is our first time using Lauren. She and her daughter made Meryl feel comfortable and showered her with attention and affection. Lauren had great communication with us. We had a meeting to introduce Meryl to them day before our dog sitting appointment that went very well. We want to use Lauren again soon for boarding. I highly recommend her for your dog.”
“Jason was great with Bowie! So glad we were able to find him in a pinch. Jason kept in great communication with us, and it was clear Bowie really enjoyed his stay.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for a large part of my life and absolutely love getting to know each pup’s unique personality. My wife and I have two friendly dogs, Ozzy (a Jack Russell Terrier mix) and Brees (a Blue Heeler mix), so your dog will have built-in playmates if they enjoy social time! I work from home a good bit, which means I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention, potty breaks, and supervision throughout the day. We also have a good sized, fully fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for safe play, zoomies, or lounging in the sun. I have experience with puppies, including crate training and basic commands, as well as senior dogs who need slower routines and a gentle touch. I’m always happy to follow your pet’s specific care instructions, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel connected while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’m here to give them the same love and care I give my own. I work from home when I'm not traveling for work, so those will be the weeks I offer boarding services. My two dogs stay home with me as well on those days, so your dog will have friends to play with the entire time. I have two dogs - Brees and Ozzy. Brees (Blue Heeler mix) is younger and has more energy. Ozzy (Jack Russell Terrier mix) is older and more of a couch potato, so we're all inclusive of every personality! Whether your dog has tons of energy and loves to play, or is more laid back, they will jive well with us.
About: Hello, I’m Nick, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve raised my own dogs and have experience fostering, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get lots of attention throughout the day—regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. They won’t be left alone for long periods, and I make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. My home is in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with a yard for safe playtime. I’ve set everything up to be dog-friendly so you can feel confident your pet is in a safe and relaxed environment. I treat every dog like they’re my own and want you to feel completely at ease while they’re in my care. I work from home which means your pet will never be alone more than 1-2 hours, will be provided frequent potty breaks, and endless amounts of love. I live in a private neighborhood that is very animal friendly, along with a yard for your pet to run and play in. I have ensured my entire home is pet friendly and safe for your pet.

About: I grew up with with at least 2 dogs (from chihuahuas all the way to Great Danes). I love going to the dog park with my pups and running around the yard with them. I also have experience in dog grooming. My family is in the process of renovating their house, so I unfortunately don’t have the space to board any animals, but in the next year I will have the space to board 5 animals. In our family our dogs aren’t pets they are family. I’d love to have the opportunity to get to know your fur babies and have play dates with my fur babies. Thank you for your time, and I can’t wait to get to know you and you fur family!
About: I’ve pet sat for friends and family for years and have been walking neighbors’ dogs for a few months. I have a large dog myself so I can be relied on to walk and care for large dogs. I currently keep a neighbor’s dog for doggy daycare about 2-3 hours during the day. They LOVE to play with each other and I have plenty of enrichment toys and treats to keep them occupied. I currently keep a dog for doggy daycare from 12:00-2:00 on weekdays, but my schedule is flexible. I am available during weekdays for walks and check ins from 8:00 am-6:00 pm. I am also available for weekday and weekend boarding and house sitting. I have a fenced in backyard and a fairly open floor plan offering a lot of play space. My dog and the dog I keep during the day are both very sweet but can be quite rambunctious at times. They are both well trained and very friendly with people and other dogs. Before moving to Baton Rouge, I used to own my own business cleaning houses and have a lot of experience working in other people’s homes. I understand how difficult it can be letting someone new into your home, especially when you may not be there. I am a great communicator, very trustworthy, and have a flexible schedule. I often send pictures or videos of pets to keep you updated and let you know your fur baby is safe and happy!
“Antonio is great with both of my dogs and so easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for a trustworthy person who takes great care of my fur babies.”
About: I have had and been around dogs my whole life. Friends and family have relied on me many times to watch and care for the dogs. I will give your pet constant love and support throughout our time together. Dogs are my absolute favorite! I currently work multiple part time jobs that I set my own schedules for so I am usually available at anytime of the day with a little advance notice. Evenings and nights are almost always free. Safety and trust is so important to me and that is my top priority when caring for your pet/home. After that, my goal is to be the best friend your pet has! I will give them plenty of attention and play with them as much or little as they like. Happy dogs make me happy!
About: I’m 18 and home for the summer, and I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years.

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

I grew up with dogs and cats then eventually a mini pig. I currently have two cats that love to be played with and needs constant attention.

About: I absolutely adore animals of all shapes and sizes! I personally have 2 dogs and a cat but I’ve had snakes, a chinchilla, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, among other family pets. I’ve never sought out an animal, I’ve only taken in animals when other people couldn’t continue caring for them. I adore any animal and love connecting with them. I also previously worked at Camp Bow Wow so I’ve worked with 100’s of dogs with different temperaments, personalities, and personal needs. While working there I had to give all sorts of meals and medicines. Everyday, I have to do basic pet tasks such as feeding, changing water, changing litter, and medications. I also walk my dogs multiple times a day. I follow any basic rules set out for me, i.e. diet, walk time, social time. They are the children of the owner and I understand they sometimes need special care or the pet and owner have a certain routine in place. But I have basic knowledge on plenty animals and can gladly care for them as if they are my own.

About: Hi, I'm Terrie! I'm a stay at home wife with nothing but time on my hands making it so I can easily accommodate last minute schedule changes or vacations at the drop of a hat! I have experience with all breeds and enjoy getting to snuggle and love on other people's pets since my family gave me a firm 'no more pets' rule lol. I never knew such rules existed until recently but that's okay... That's where animal sitting comes into play! Love on them and then send them back is my new personal motto! My family: They're incredibly hands on with any animal that comes into our home. They both love to tag along during drop-ins. There is never not a moment your animal won't be cared for and loved on. Meet our pets: We have six spoiled cats and three lovable Siberian huskies named Diamond (16), Hudson (12) and Cody (10). All our pups are up-to-date on vaccinations and on monthly flea and heartworm preventative. Having had mostly huskies for the past 17 years, we know the ins and outs of the breed, so you can trust even the sneakiest of houdinis in our care! I do require a meet and greet ahead of time with any new pups that will be staying with us - mainly to make sure we're the right fit and our pack gets along safely with yours. I also request dogs visiting with us be preferably fully potty trained, cat friendly, UTD on vaccinations and also on some sort of flea preventative as our babies have a slight flea allergy. Important: If you're outside of radius (10 miles or more), I do charge an extra fee of $10 to cover mileage and the time to travel to your home. Big, small, or exotic (I've owned tarantulas, rabbits, hedgehogs and snakes in the past) - I promise that your baby will be in great hands and be treated just like they're our own: spoiled rotten and loved!

They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”

Ask me about other animals too🤩 This is a part time job for me to keep me busy during the week. I have epilepsy and cannot drive. I’d love to be able to have a job and this is my new dream 🤩❤️ I have a fenced in yard and one friendly cat named Whiskers. If you have any needs beyond those mentioned above feel free to request them in person.
“Tracy was absolutely amazing with Rocky. She was so sweet and caring from the very beginning. She kept me updated the entire time, sending pictures and letting me know how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. Rocky came back home calm, happy, and not nervous at all, that says everything. I’m truly grateful for how well she took care of him. Highly recommend her and would definitely trust her again with Rocky”
“Keith was friendly, very communicative and our dogs loved staying with him! He is also an experienced dog trainer and made sure our dog took his medicine during their stay. We will be boarding with him again next time we go out of town and recommending him to friends. Thank you for taking such good care of Scully and Fisher!”
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.
“Gabby is amazing! She kept Lux over Easter and did an Easter Egg Hunt and had an Easter Basket made for her. Lux had a wonderful time and absolutely loved staying with Gabby! 100/10 would recommend!”
“So glad Snoopy could play with other dogs and Emery was able to squeeze us in for our weekend of football festivities! Snoop’s hooman big bro won too so an awesome weekend all around!!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently have a 10 year old Weimaraner that is very friendly with a lot of energy. I have a huge backyard that is fenced in with plenty of space to run. I have been a dog owner since I was a kid. I work full time, but home in the evenings and weekends. My office is 15 minutes away from home. I work 40 hours a week, but home in the evenings and on the weekends. I can leave your pet in the backyard if the weather is nice. My backyard is fenced in. I have a 90 pound Weimaraner that is great with other dogs. My backyard is very big with plenty of space to play and run.
“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.”
“Johanna and her family once again took great care of Beanie. She always has a great time with the other dogs and comes home worn out from playing! I recommend Johanna to anyone looking for an amazing sitter for their pet!”
About: I have had and taken care of pets of all kinds (but especially dogs) since I was very young! I’ve had experience with puppies, young dogs, and older dogs, male and female. Even now I help take care of relative’s dogs and I love it. I feed, watch, walk, and make sure they’re happy! I stay in good shape and walk / workout every day, so I am able to handle larger breeds if needed! I live near LSU lakes which is a great place for walking, I usually go around the lakes when I go for walks, so I am familiar with the area well. It’s a great experience for people and pets! I’m pretty flexible and usually available for any activities! I am going to be taking 2 online classes this summer which requires me to be home, it works out well to watch some sweet pups! I do not have any dogs or cats within my home currently. Any pet works just fine to be inside or outside! The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all fairly large open spaces and connected together.
“This family is absolutely amazing! They took such great care of my two dogs and it was a last minute booking! Atlas and Kira had such a good doggy vacation, I highly recommend booking with Kelbie!”
“Molly was absolutely incredible! She has a clean, safe, and loving environment that made me feel at ease the moment I arrived.My cat was very comfortable and happy while he was in her care. She kept me updated on how he was adjusting and sent me pictures and videos daily. She has been my favorite sitter thus far and I can tell my cat really loved being with her while I was away.”
