Personalized care for your dog or cat - Jamestown

“We stayed with Melanie because of the reviews we had read on Rover. She was everything we were looking for and more. We had not left our animals in such a long time and we were looking for a more personal experience. Our stay was scheduled just a few days prior to needing her, and we didn’t have time for a meet and greet, but on arrival she was so accommodating. She let Jace ( Labrador) 11 yo and Max (Pomeranian) 1/12 yo have time to get used to their surroundings and my husband and I to feel comfortable leaving. It felt as much like home, as it could be. She sent us so many pictures, and we could tell how much fun they were having. I will want to use her again whenever we are away! We highly recommend her !”

Becky B.

“Dani was INCREDIBLE. We’ve never used Rover before and felt extremely comfortable leaving our dog in her hands. She was responsive, extremely kind when we dropped our dog off & sent frequent updates letting us know she was doing well which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend Dani and we will be a repeat customer ♥️🐾”

Alexis S.

“Emilee was a lifesaver when we at last minute needed care for our pups for our vacation. We appreciated all of the updates that she gave us regarding their stay and she was very communicative ! We will certainly use her again!”

Tanisha M.

“Austin & Megan were great! They were quick to respond and sent the cutest pictures! Boston can’t wait to visit again and play with their pup!”

Tiffany M.

“I was very happy with Samantha. It was nice to know they were able to stay in her house and backyard. Before they have been shut up in prison cell type enclosures outside or put in small cages if the weather was bad. I have already tipped her.”

Beth H.

“Andrea and her husband were great. I will definitely call them again I’ve never left my Buddy with strangers. They made me feel so comfortable. I’m very pleased with their service. Andrea even text me to let me know my Buddy was doing good. I highly recommend their Dog sitting service !”

Patricia W.

“Ciara is very friendly and our dogs didn’t hesitate to show her some love and jump right in her car! She sent photos and messages throughout their stay, giving us comfort knowing they were in good hands ? We will definitely rebook!”

“Amazing experience, Tinesha handled a last minute ask, kept me up to date, and her family took such good care of our rambunctious and need pup. Will certainly come back again!”

Lance A.

“Zack is the best! We left our three babies with Zac, one being 15 years old with a medical condition. Zack put our fears to rest to the point we were able to celebrate our wedding without concerns of how our dogs were being treated and cared for. We extended a day and Zac was caring enough to let us know he would be away from the dogs all day and if we were okay with it. We will definitely use him again and recommend to anyone with Barksdale AFB access.”

Prantica W.

“Courtney thank you for the awesome care and loving kindness you gave Meiko while we were on vacation!! You are amazing and we appreciate you greatly!! Thank you again!!”

Sheila J.

“Gabreila was absolutely amazing! She agreed to watch my puppy on such short notice! Right before drop-off, my puppy fell ill and was taken to the ER. She allowed me to drop him off after we left the ER and administered all of the medication he needed during his stay! I am so grateful that she took great care of him and would 100% recommend her for pet sitting!”

About: What sets me apart is my rigorous attention to detail and a background in health and wellness. I understand that your pet’s health isn't just about feeding and walking; it’s about monitoring their well-being, strictly adhering to dietary or medication requirements, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. Whether it's managing complex care instructions or simply keeping a keen eye on their health and comfort, I bring a level of professionalism and vigilance that ensures your peace of mind while you are away. I also provide consistent photo/text updates so you have peace of mind while being away from your pets. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to be highly attentive and present throughout the day. This means I can offer your pet more companionship, frequent check-ins, and a stable routine that minimizes stress while you're away. Because my time is dedicated to being home-based, I can ensure your pet receives the extra playtime, consistent feeding times, and reliable care they deserve, giving you total peace of mind. While my home does not have a fenced-in yard, I am highly experienced in safely managing outdoor time using a leash to ensure your pet gets the necessary exercise and potty breaks in a secure, controlled manner. I am also comfortable with crating and strictly following your established house rules to maintain your pet's comfort and safety. Furthermore, I am completely flexible and happy to provide pet-sitting services directly in your home, allowing your pet to remain in their familiar environment, which is often the most stress-free experience for them. I do not have any animals currently of my own.

About: I have worked in veterinary medicine and dog training for the past 7 years. I hold a fear free certificate and have continued to maintain the skills and knowledge needed for this for several years. I am confident and able to care for pets who may need specific handling requirements or have special needs. I also love working with and training with animals with behavior concerns. I am a full-time college student, but am remote which allows me the ability to drop in for care, walks, and more throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and friendly dogs for any pets who may want company. Dogs traveling in my car will be safely kenneled or buckled. I also understand different needs and would love to create a plan with you to ensure that your pet receives the best care possible.

About: I’ve been caring for Dogs for the last 12 years from all kinds of breeds. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding with their schedule, and keeping them active and happy! I am currently in the airforce, I am available between Thursday, Friday and Saturdays to spend time with your pups. I’m also available mornings and nights or whatever works for you:) I will make sure they go on plenty of walk and go outside. They also will get all the love and attention they need. I will also make sure they always have a source of water!

About: I've been rescuing dogs and cats and anything else I could get my hands on since I was a child. I worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and a shelter for 4 years. I've fostered many dogs and cats for local rescue organizations and have lots of experience with animal care and behavior. I provide a happy, home environment for your pets at an affordable rate! I will keep you updated with lots of photos and videos every day. My family loves all breeds and sizes of dogs. When they are with us they are family! Our home is their home. We also keep small, caged animals..ferrets, Guinea pigs, etc. Many vet references and personal references available to you upon request. Thank you for your consideration! I always have plenty of time and love to give to your furry family members while you relax and enjoy your time away from home. I have a secured fenced yard for play time and potty time. They will never be left unattended outside. They will have free roam in my pet friendly home or they can have their own quiet kennel space if needed.

“Amanda was great! We booked her last minute over the holidays and she was very responsive and took great care of our cats (and our house during a deep freeze!). Highly recommend!”

I will feed horses and muck stalls if need be. I have no problem feeding ,cleaning up and loving your babies. I’m an empty nester so I have time to take care of your babies. My home routine starts early every day. I have my pets on a twice a day schedule. I’m an empty nester so I will have time for your pets needs , no worries. We have six beautiful dogs , ages 7 months to 11 years old. We have three cats and two horses. Our babies are fed twice a day and two of mine take allergy meds every day.

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed.

I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.

About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity

“One of the sweetest, most passionate-for-animals people I’ve ever met! Melanie took wonderful care of my husky and I felt confident he was in a safe, loving environment. I received lots of photos from his stay which made me incredibly happy!”

“Sam was easy to work with, flexible for our schedule since we traveled from out of town. She communicated quickly and treated our pup sweetly”

About: I will always treat your babies as if they are family. Attention, fun, care and love is always guaranteed when any pet stays with me! I live and work on base allowing me to constantly care for your pet. And I can also travel to your home to provide the same amount of care I provide at my home. I do my absolute best to give any and all pets I care for all the attention, love and care they need to satisfy both them and the owners.

“Tinesha was the best!! From her customer service to how she cared for our pups, we couldn't be more happy with her services!!”

Caroline M.

“Sierra was fantastic! We are from out of town, in the area for a funeral. She took our 2 dogs for a day so we could attend the service and family time. Much appreciated! Would use her again if we're back in the area!”

About: I’ve loved animals since I was young. I grew up with goats, cats, dogs, bunnies, and many more fun critters. I find a lot of joy being around animals. When I was 9 I helped my family’s pet goat give birth and helped raise them until they were rehomed to different farms. That is just one of the many fun stories I have from growing up surrounded by a variety of animals. I’m pretty comfortable with all personalities of pets and am very accommodating to specific routines and lifestyles. I used to work at a pet hospital so, that educated me on how to care for injured or sick pets. As well as, how to handle different behaviors of pets to benefit their safety and day to day life. I believe that all pets deserve kind and loving care no matter the age. I’m currently a stay at home wife with plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available Monday-Saturday all day and Sundays after 12 PM, unless we make special accommodations for overnights or other accommodations. I live in a quiet neighborhood and have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for playing and exercise. I also have two dogs that love making new friends. For boarding at my house I like to let the dogs have plenty of outside time. Whether it’s in the backyard playing, going on a walk, or a trip to the dog park. I’m also up for quiet days with snuggles on the couch. I am happy to crate your dog if requested- one of my dogs are crated when they are home alone due to anxiety so I understand the necessity if needed. I also have indoor cameras to monitor my pets while I’m not home, so your pets will always have an eye on them even if I’m not physically there to ensure their safety. For overnight stays in your home, it is completely up to your discretion how you’d like me to care for your pets. If you have special instructions for your pet care I am open to almost anything, I don’t think any ask is too big or too small.

About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!

About: I’ve had the privilege of being born into a dog family. Dogs are more than a pet, or even a man’s best friend- they’re literally family. I might argue that they receive better treatment than family, but they’re too cute not to! While every single person in my family has a dog, I unfortunately do not. My family lives in St. Louis, MO and I live in Ruston, LA for school. But there’s no denying I miss my dogs. I think this opportunity would allow me to fulfill that void and take a load off your list. A win/win scenario! (I’m also on a 10k/day step journey so this would make it less boring!) I have experience with all sized dogs and different breeds ranging from Rottweilers, Poodles, English Bulldogs, Maltipoos, Shitzus, Maltese, Mix Breeds and more. I can do short walks around the neighbors or longer walks on a trail which I have a seasonal pass to Lincoln Parish Park. I have a full SUV with covered seats to accommodate your baby! I currently work from home and also am doing school online so my schedule is extremely flexible and what I make it to be. I can work from anywhere if need be so it’s never an issue for me. In my clients home, I would make sure I play it by their book and carefully review their instructions. I will also work on gaining the dogs trust by giving it extra love, cuddles, and attention so they can familiarize themselves with me.
