Highly-rated overnight sitters - McDade
“So thankful for Melanie and her family! My boyfriend and I we’re gone for a wedding/vacation for 10+ days and she made my boy Ares feel right at home! She was always sending pictures and giving me daily updates to let me know how he was doing. Makes you feel at ease when leaving your fur baby behind with people so genuine and sweet! He got to meet some other dogs and had a blast with them. If I’m ever back in the area, I know who I’ll be calling next!”
“Amazing! We went a few days before to meet her and after just a few minutes, I felt at ease. She sent pictures the entire time, replied quickly when I would check on Opal. She just had a kindness about her and I could tell with Opal’s reaction to her. I will wholeheartedly use her again! It was a very good decision on my part!!”
“Susan is a dog lover's dream!! Her compassionate, professional care of the dogs she sits for in her home provides peace of mind to even the most attached dog owners. We could not be any happier with her care, her love and her obvious gift with our canine companions. Our older boxer loves to visit, and misses all the interaction with her canine friends at Susan's when it's time to go! We look forward to the next visit when family plans don't allow us to take our dog with us. Susan's dedication, experience and compassionate care are unmatched. ”
“Jamie, Is two words Simply AMAZING!!! my pup Meesha is a rescue and I worry about leaving her with sitters because I don’t want her to feel like she is being abandoned again. Jamie made sure that didn’t happen!!! From all the love she showed Meesha and also her kids play and showing love to Meesha. I wasn’t sure if Meesha was even going to want to come back home. We will definitely be rebooking with Jamie.”
“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 ♥️🐾”
“5 stars isn’t enough honestly! 🐾❤️ Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away for my birthday trip. From the moment I dropped her off, you made me feel comfortable and reassured that she was in loving hands. The communication was excellent, the care was genuine, and I could truly relax and enjoy my trip knowing my baby was safe and happy. You can tell you genuinely love animals and treat them like family instead of just “watching pets.” That meant everything to me. My dog came back happy, well cared for, and full of love. Reliable, trustworthy, patient, and caring — I would absolutely recommend you to anybody looking for an amazing dog sitter. Thank you again for going above and beyond. We truly appreciate you! ❤️”
“I had a last minute trip and Kaley absolutely saved the day. I picked her profile because I saw that she has 6 doggies already so I knew mine was going to have a great time over there. The videos she sent to me were proof! Definitely recommend her to anybody looking to board their dog!”
“Madison took wonderful care of my puppy, Bella, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about making Bella feel comfortable and loved while I was away. I really appreciated her communication and attention to detail, which gave me peace of mind the entire time. I would absolutely recommend Madison to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Hilaire was the best! She has a genuine caring for her furry baby guests. Our dog loved her and we did not have to worry. She sent pictures and updates every day. I recommend her highly and will definitely use her again.”
“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.”
“Wonderful communication and service! and my two dogs had a great time boarding over at her house. I have a super energetic poodle and I could tell she really took the time to play with her during her stay. Will definitely be using Lindsay again 😊”

“If I could give more stars, I would. Last night was the very first time I've been away from my Great Dane ever. This couple that cared for Axl is top-notch. They sent me pics of her going for a walk. I was really concerned about the attachment issues and the worry behind them. But I'm happy to report I did better than I thought I would being away from her! Lol. I HIGHLY recommend this couple. They have an absolutely obvious love for animals. It shows.

I definitely recommend Dawn when you need these kind of services.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - McDade
“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!”
“I HIGHLY recommend Jamie! Jamie has Shasta over for doggy daycare and she was so attentive, took Shasta on walks (yes - PLURAL), and played with her in the backyard throughout the day. Her and her family were so attentive of Shasta, and Shasta was so happy to run to the door in the mornings when we dropped her off. Jamie gave us peace of mind, and made us feel very safe and comfortable knowing our puppy was in good hands. I will definitely be calling Jamie back for more daycare !!! Thank you 💛🤗”
About: I know that you have many options for care. I have been working through Rover since early 2020 and would like to share some information about myself. I made the decision to take an early retirement after twenty-two years at Northwestern State University when my husband and I relocated to Shreveport and both of our children went off to college. This move gave me the opportunity to pursue a job that I ❤️ and am passionate about. I believe dogs and cats are the most awesome of Earth's creatures, and, in my eyes, are such precious members of our families. I am a long-time dog and cat owner and currently a parent to three rescued dogs. I also was an active volunteer and Board Member for Natchitoches Hope for Paws dog rescue from 2012 to 2022. During this time, I worked with 150+ rescued dogs at the site and through the foster program. I found so much pleasure and enjoyment working as a rescue volunteer and wanted to expand my love and care of these most precious of animals. As a volunteer, I cleaned kennels, administered medications, walked and played with dogs, worked with basic training techniques and leash walking, and evaluated and monitored dog behaviors and personalities for proper socialization and integration with other dogs including aggressive and high anxiety dogs. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I love all fur babies big, small, young, and old. I am available at any time and since I am retired, I am able to provide drop-in services, walks, and overnight care (for socialized and house trained dogs who are current on all shots and flea/tick preventives), including medication administration and care for aggressive and high-anxiety dogs. I have no problems with cleaning up accidents and will ensure that your home stays clean of messes. I am also a firm believer in sending pictures while you are away so you can be comforted that your dog (or cat) is receiving nothing but the upmost care and love while you are away. No requested service is to great or small! I would welcome the opportunity to help you with care needs for your fur babies! Since I am retired, I am available at any time for drop-ins, walks, and overnight boarding (socialized and house trained only). I am also able to work around flexible and changing schedules. I live in a house with a large fully fenced backyard and have a doggy door which allows the dogs to move freely in and out of the house as they desire.

I am able to give your dog the care they need in order to be comfortable and enjoy their time while you are away. I am currently a student at USA. I am home most of the day, when I am not in class. I live 4 minutes from campus so your dog will never be left alone for more than 2 hours at a time. I only have class once a day. I have a fenced in back yard and a golden doodle of my own that is very playful and gets along with other dogs very well. We go on walks daily and have lots of playtime.
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

Adventure-ready dog walkers - McDade
“Brianna has been great! She’s very responsive and communicates with us well. And she’s very good with our 9 month old German Shepherd, and quite forgiving since her puppy energy can make her a lot to handle. We’ve had an issue with her jumping, and Brianna reached out to us to help solve the issue. Highly recommend, and we will continue to use her as a dog walker while we’re here!”
“Emily is wonderful! She kept me updated on my pups health & wellness, I felt at ease on my trip knowing I had someone who genuinely cared for my dog in my absence. I would 100% book with Emily again! I HIGHLY recommend!! Thank you Emily!!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I am a dog person, but I also like cats. I'm not an expert, but I have an interest in dog psychology, training and body language. I feel that most people forget that we are also mammals and instinctual beings. Just like children, you have to meet animals on their level as well, respectively. Someday I'd like to raise a variety of animals on a homestead of my own. I work for myself part-time cleaning houses, so I always get to make my own schedule. My calendar is by no means full, but I do have regular clients at different intervals. So, lots of free time to check in on your fur baby and drop off a little love while I'm at it. According to the client's wishes. It is their home and their rules. I live side by side with my dog. He follows my every step, always in the way, of course. Life is never boring with him though, he's even entertaining while he sleeps. 🐶(Snores, barks, whimpers, runs)

About: Hey y'all! I'm a Midwestern gal who has loved getting to know the pets of the deep south! I've been an animal lover my entire life. So, about 10 years ago, I started working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and it was the experience of a lifetime! It's easily the coolest job I've ever had. I've gotten to learn a lot about pet care. It's a special feeling to get to get to know and watch pups grow up. I worked under an animal behaviorist in DC for several months before ending up down here in the Bossier area! I’m looking forward to building another sweet community of pets🥰 At home I have an ancient pup named Bella! She is an 18 year old beagle who really just wants to hang out. Thankfully my schedule is very flexible to the needs of your pet! I have found that watching animals can be a really mutually beneficial activity. For example, watching someone’s pup gives me a good excuse to get out of the house and go on longer walks! I am always willing to locate nearby dog parks which can be fun spots for outings! Also happy to curl up on the couch and watch Netflix with your furball - whatever their energy is☺️ Additionally, I have ten years of professional experience as an animal caretaker.

About: Hello, my name is Caleb. I’m from Washington state and have lived in Bossier City about 10 years. My family has 2 dogs. Patchi is our papillon (13yrs old), and Paco, our tiny rescue (8yrs old) chihuahua from Mexico! While on vacation we stopped at a shelter to drop off food, and he ran up to me in the street. I knew from that first moment we had a bond, and one week later he came home with me. I have a love for dogs, and they usually warm up to me very quickly. I have experience with fostering smaller breeds. I also spent some time volunteering and cleaning at a local cat shelter. Looking forward to meeting and caring for pet. I am currently housesitting and pet sitting full-time. I service in the Shreveport, Bossier, Haughton, and Benton area. If you have any questions about scheduling just let me know. I am currently not boarding dogs at my home. I am available for checkins, walks, or house sittings. I always make sure I leave the house secured when I leave or step out. Making sure all doors are closed all the way and locked.
“Katie did a great job and the dogs really liked her. She sent several pictures and kept me well informed throughout the walk. We are looking forward to our next walk with her.”
About: A lifetime of love for animals! From my childhood dream of being a 'bunny-seller' to caring for my own spoiled Golden Goof, Goldie Mae, I always knew I wanted to have animals in my daily life. Growing up on a farm taught me a lot about caring for animals. From dogs and cats to horses and cows, I've always had a passion for nurturing these fur babies and ensuring they are part of the family. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry friend. My goal is to give you a peace of mind, and provide a fun time for your fur babies!. As a work from home dog mom, I've figured out the perfect blend of productivity and playtime. Your fur baby will get the attention they deserve, plus a little extra love from me. ** OVERNIGHT VISITS - Goldie will be present on all overnight visits unless otherwise discussed. ** Your dog's happiness and safety is a top priority. Every dog is unique, and so is their routine. Whether your furry friend is an outdoor adventurer or an indoor snuggler, I try to plan around their preferences. In My House: - Don't forget to meet my friendly sidekick! My goof Goldie will be there to welcome them with open paws and tons of kisses! - My home is cleaned after every pet visit. All cleaning products are pet-safe or pets are kept away from that area for recommended time. ** My yard is NOT fenced so a good recall and ability to be on a leash is required to stay in my home.

About: I enjoy pet sitting, and I love taking care of animals! I am the proud co-owner of two beautiful dogs: Sugar, a Blue Heeler/German Shepherd mix; and Millie, a Chihuahua. My passions outside of animal care include crochet, theatre, reading, and spending time with my family. I am looking forward to helping your fur babies and making friends with them! In addition, I hope to begin volunteering with local animal shelters in the Northwest Louisiana area. I will make sure your fur babies are given the love that they deserve. I can also help new pet owners understand their fur babies better. Thank you for your time! I am a college student, so I am generally available during weekends, holidays, and breaks. If your pet needs walking, however, I am able to balance my busy schedule to fit your pet’s unique needs. I will adhere very strictly to their walk, feeding, and/or potty schedule. I make sure that the dogs are fed and watered at the appropriate times and I am diligent about sending updates through the Rover app. Your animals will receive my full attention when they are in my care.
About: I’m a military member waiting to continue my training. I would love to spend my time playing and walking pets. I have had a dog since I was 5 years old and a cat since I was 7. I love all animals dearly. I worked through Rover at my last assignment as well! My week days are typically very free and I can be available on a moments notice. I can plan ahead to be available on weekends as well. I unfortunately cannot take animals into my home but promise to respect your home and your pets. All animals deserve a loving home and I would never want to disrupt that.
About: I am a huge animal lover. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, a bearded dragon, a snail and a fish. I love to play fetch with my doggies and love on my kitties. Our bearded dragon is a blast to feed and watch crawl all over the floor. My pets are not pets, they are family. The sleep in my bed and are treated like one of my kids. We love our animals so much when we my kids talk to them they call them bubba and sissy. I absolutely love being around animals. I know how it is to be away from home and wonder how my babies are doing or wish I was home to walk them or take them out to potty so I would love to help other pet owners and give them a piece of mind that their babies are in great hands!!!

“So thankful for Melanie and her family! My boyfriend and I we’re gone for a wedding/vacation for 10+ days and she made my boy Ares feel right at home! She was always sending pictures and giving me daily updates to let me know how he was doing. Makes you feel at ease when leaving your fur baby behind with people so genuine and sweet! He got to meet some other dogs and had a blast with them. If I’m ever back in the area, I know who I’ll be calling next!”
“Amazing! We went a few days before to meet her and after just a few minutes, I felt at ease. She sent pictures the entire time, replied quickly when I would check on Opal. She just had a kindness about her and I could tell with Opal’s reaction to her. I will wholeheartedly use her again! It was a very good decision on my part!!”
“Jamie, Is two words Simply AMAZING!!! my pup Meesha is a rescue and I worry about leaving her with sitters because I don’t want her to feel like she is being abandoned again. Jamie made sure that didn’t happen!!! From all the love she showed Meesha and also her kids play and showing love to Meesha. I wasn’t sure if Meesha was even going to want to come back home. We will definitely be rebooking with Jamie.”
“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 ♥️🐾”
“I had a last minute trip and Kaley absolutely saved the day. I picked her profile because I saw that she has 6 doggies already so I knew mine was going to have a great time over there. The videos she sent to me were proof! Definitely recommend her to anybody looking to board their dog!”
“Hilaire was the best! She has a genuine caring for her furry baby guests. Our dog loved her and we did not have to worry. She sent pictures and updates every day. I recommend her highly and will definitely use her again.”
“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.”
“Wonderful communication and service! and my two dogs had a great time boarding over at her house. I have a super energetic poodle and I could tell she really took the time to play with her during her stay. Will definitely be using Lindsay again 😊”

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.
“If I could give more stars, I would. Last night was the very first time I've been away from my Great Dane ever. This couple that cared for Axl is top-notch. They sent me pics of her going for a walk. I was really concerned about the attachment issues and the worry behind them. But I'm happy to report I did better than I thought I would being away from her! Lol. I HIGHLY recommend this couple. They have an absolutely obvious love for animals. It shows. They have a very clean environment and they are a lovely couple. Axl has her permanent sitters now. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Adriana was SO wonderful with our dog, making sure he felt plenty comfortable and loved while we were away. We loved getting the daily pictures she sent as well!! ❤️ She was also extremely flexible with us in our drop off/pick up times, which was so helpful and removed a lot for stress for us as our travel times were delayed. Will definitely be using Adriana again.”
“I will be rebooking. Andrea and her husband was fantastic! They communicated really well, I always got an update on my baby. My baby loved being there he was really happy! They made me feel at peace while I was away that my baby was in good hands!”
About: I volunteer on my off time at my local dog rescue. I also have fostered many dogs in the past year for Caddo shelter and Parish Paws. I grew up around dogs and own two of my own who are always willing to play with other dogs. If there’s ever a concern of aggressive I separate the dogs when let out for potty breaks or in the house. I am taking off work for the next two months so my schedule is open minus a couple dates here and there. You can expect me home majority of my days. My pets are always fed and given water through the day and let o it frequently. They enjoy playing fetch or running in the yard and going on car rides or walks.
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
