“Iryna was incredibly sweet and nurturing to our cats, Ziggy & Roux! Her communication with me throughout their stay with her was impeccable. We hope to work with Iryna again!”
“This was my first time using Mary for my little corgi, Beignet. Beignet sent two weeks with Mary and when I picked her up, she was happy and healthy, her weight was good and she had her normal appetite. It was obvious that she really took a serious liking to Mary. I am very grateful for the kind, loving care that was given to my little dog. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Rachel and Mike have taken great care of Leo and Ellie both times they’ve had them! We’re so happy we’ve found someone who we know they’re in good in hands with!”
“I highly recommend Regina. She sent pics of my baby after she was picked up. She went above and beyond to help me get my dog to her and from her. She is a fantastic lady.”
“My little pup had a lovely time with Roxanne! They were great with communication and definitely put me at ease for leaving my baby for the first time in 2 years. I loved getting pictures while I was away, brightened up my day! Frankie will be coming back for sure!”
“My girls were happy and immediately comfortable with Elena! She sent photos and updates, and when I ran into unexpected car trouble she was able to drop them off to me last minute. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“I’ve been a regular client of Mike for a while now and just left my dog with him again for 9 nights. Every time I get a photo/video update, I’m always delighted to see how happy my dog is and I can tell he absolutely loves it there. Mike’s place is a 2nd home now and I can travel with absolutely zero worries and paranoias when away from my pet, because I know he’s in paradise.”
“Michael kept Benji the Basenji for the weekend in NOLA. Things seemed to go great. Michael was very responsive throughout the weekend when I inquired how things were going. We will definitely reach out to Michael again for keeping Benji. His location is also great if you’re staying in the quarter area.”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“Aja and her family took amazing care of my babies while I went away. She updated me constantly with pictures and report from the day. She was easy to communicate with, friendly and I totally trusted her expertise with many years of experience in animal care. So glad I found her here!”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Taz and provided lots of updates. I could tell in the pictures that Taz was so happy and it was a relief that he was in good hands. Thank you Natalie, you’re a life saver!”
“Christine made my baby’s first sitting experience so easy! She was very attentive to his specific needs and kept me informed throughout the entire visit. I met with her before the planned visit to ensure my baby would be a good fit for her and her family (very important). I definitely will rebook another visit with her!”
About: I've walked dogs in Dallas, Tx for three years. I've been taking care of my own dog since moving here to New Orleans. Love all kinds of dogs. I'm recently retired and looking for some extra income. I love all kinds of dogs big or small and their individual personalities. I'm also a long time cat owner and love them as well. I would like to offer my service to stay at your home with your pet. I will feed, adminster medicine, walk, and groom your pet.
“Cheryn was amazing! You could immediately tell she was really caring and passionate about dogs. Huey had a great time and we loved the great communication and pictures. Highly recommend Cheryn!”
“Randy does a Great job! Jazzy is very comfortable staying with him and his babies. This is the 2nd time Jazzy has stayed with him and we will use his service again in the future.”
“Jon was great! I had to leave town and had a last-minute Rover cancellation! Jon was incredibly easygoing and flexible in accommodating my nervous pup. Jon sent daily updates, which gave me such peace of mind. I’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog boarding services in the Uptown area!”
“Blair was fantastic. She was extremely responsive and very easy to schedule pick up/drop off. She has a pup of her own that got along great with my dog. I will definitely be booking her again.”

“Tucker loved staying at Ashley’s house and playing with Opal! Thanks for the great pictures and taking great care of Tucker Ashley! He will be back!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter, more flexible and communicative during a disaster of a trip, with layovers being extended, she communicated clearly and was flexible to keep my pet, I will definately use her again for this service”

“Returning customer for Olivia- my cats and I love her!! She takes great care of them, is very diligent with all feeding and upkeep, and is a great photographer to boot!! Highly recommended!”
“Hanna was great. She came by to see the house and meet the cats prior to booking. She made sure to know our communication preferences and sent pictures every day. Our cats were happy when we got home! We definitely recommend Hanna for a house or pet sit!”
“Kelly has watched my cat on multiple occasions and provides great peace of mind while I’m away. She visits at consistent times and provides daily pictures and I know my cat is in good hands.”
“Alaina is such a great cat sitter! There was a storm while I was away and I had minimal phone/ internet to get in touch. I was very stressed about it but Alaina handled the emergency so well, took my cat to her house and he was doing great when I got back.”
“Bianca was extremely communicative and attentive to our cats’ needs. She gave them lots of love and affection and shared detailed updates along the way. I would be happy to leave my pets in her care any day.”
“Elizabeth was prompt with her visits and reports. She made me feel secure about being away from Tula. Everything was in order when we returned. I would trust her to check on her again if needed.”
“Samantha is fantastic at communicating regarding her schedule and not taking on more than she’s able. She is a stable, fun loving caretaker and follows all instructions. She took wonderful care of my cat and sent sweet photos documenting her time with him. It helped me to enjoy my travels, knowing she was looking after my beloved pet.”
“Sarah has provided great care to my sweet senior cat over the course of several bookings. Callie is often shy with strangers, yet she connected with Sarah on the first visit. I have more peace of mind when I’m away thanks to Sarah’s excellent communication and wonderful photos.”
“Eliza was great, it was comforting to know she was caring for our cats while away. She followed all instructions and communicated effectively. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Anne was fantastic and took such great care of our two kitties while my husband and I were away for a week. She arranged a meet and greet, was timely and personable, and had good experience with animals. My husband and I felt so comfortable going away because our cats were in good hands! She fed and watered the cats, cleaned the litter box, spent some quality time with them, and kept us informed after each visit. We will definitely be using her in the future when we go out of town.”
“Caitlin was so great! She was flexible and responsive leading up to the visit and sent me lots of pictures of my furry boy during her drop in. I can tell she did more than just refill the food bowl and clean the litter box— she spent some time giving my cat some much-needed attention and making him feel loved while I was gone. What more could I ask for? :)”
“Michelle G. Is the best! We had an small emergency right before leaving on our trip and she was very attentive to monitoring our kitty and making sure he was okay. She was flexible in visits and accommodated our requests and eased our worries. She gave them both much needed treats, playtime and pets (depending on their mood of course). Would highly recommend her!”
“Faith was great with my four cats! Even the one who hides all the time she made sure he had his food. Twice a day feedings and litter maintenance. Will for sure request her again!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had such a great experience with Stacy and Patrick! Stacy and Patrick did overnight stays with our cats and they truly went above and beyond. They did such a great job looking after our cats. We recommend them and will definitely use them again.”
“Lindsay is a great sitter. She is attentive to my 2 babies. They were well cared for and the house smelled fine when I arrived home. Thank you again! Liz S.”
“Jenifer took such great care of our 2 cats! She was attentive, affectionate, and patient with them, as they can be demanding when it comes to feeding. Our cats are high maintenance and have to be fed 3 times a day at specific times, including an early 6:30 am, and she kindly fed them at their specified times. She also sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. She’s also such a sweet person. I highly recommend her!”
“Our second time booking with Deana and she was great! Somehow both of our electric litter boxes were malfunctioning and she worked hard trying to help us find workarounds and keep the boxes clean. Definitely went above and beyond. Really appreciated her help!”
“Daphne cared for my 17 year old cat who required multiple medications, and needed lots of TLC. I would not hesitate to use her again, as she is mature, responsible, and doesn’t just do the bare minimum necessary. She really spent time with my cat, and I received lots of feedback and pictures.”

“Emily is absolutely AMAZING!!! I work in the area and don’t know anybody, here. I had an emergency situation come up and needed somebody to look after my 3 dogs for an ambiguous amount of time (I did not know if I was going to be looking at a daycare sitch or a multi-day stay.) I made a reservation and sent a message to Emily after midnight on a Thursday about coordinating for the next morning and she responded immediately!!! She really reeeeeeeally helped me out of a jam, and even came to pick my kids up for me so I could begin to address my situation right away, even though I am staying well out of her way! She is a doll, and her own pups are a hoot! I couldn’t recommend her more! While living and working on the road it is incredibly stressful to address the contingency where you may not be able to attend to your babies, my dogs and my cat are with me 100% of the time and I have often found myself fretting about what to do, should something happen to me. Emily swooped right in and put my mind well at ease so that I could address my own needs without the weight of worrying!”
“Always a great and trusted time with Michael. Max has come back everytime, happy. This time, he made a friend 😍 I’ll continue to use Michael as a sitter.”
“Roxanne was great at communicating and was very timely. She took very good care of our boys and we will absolutely be using her services in the future. Thank you, Roxanne!”
“Evlin took excellent care of our Peach during four days of Jazz Fest. Also excellent communication and she was flexible about drop off time at the end of the day when we were returning from the festival. We highly recommend her.”
“Oshie was able to take care of my Abby last minute and she was so pleasant. She took great care of my girl and if I’m ever in the area again, I will be reaching out!”
“Ms. Etta is GREAT with Bronx. I love how she loves on him and she knows how to handle him. Bronx is a good dog, but she makes sure to pay attention to your pup and learns their quirks so that she can anticipate any issues that may arise. The love and care that she shows all the pups in her care is amazing. I literally can count on her to watch Bronx and not have to even check in cause I know he’s in good hands. She takes pride in her business and I’m so happy she’s accepted me and Bronx into her Krewe. She has a customer FOR LIFE! Thank you so much Ms. E”
“Ashley was a true professional and made sure my dog had a well balanced day of rest, play and walking ! I am definitely planning to request more dog sitting from her!”
“It can be hard to find sitters willing to help with challenging dogs, and I have a very sweet pup who, unfortunately, has some separation anxiety that means she can’t be left home alone at this point. Julia agreed to watch her for some daycare while my husband and I attended a family birthday party, and she also was great about setting up a Meet and Greet about a week beforehand so that Sable could be introduced to Julia and her own pups. Julia sent pictures and updates while we were away, and I appreciated her honesty when I asked how Sable did. It seems as though Sable was only mildly embarrassing and didn’t put Julia through too much hassle, so I’m very grateful to have someone trustworthy and kind to leave my pup with! Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve spent years helping friends and family by watching their pets when they travel. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they stay happy and comfortable in their routine while their owners are away. From walks and playtime to cuddles and companionship, I truly enjoy caring for animals I currently work from home so I have flexibility on caring for your fur babies! Whether it’s taking them for a walk or babysitting them at my house, I will make sure your animal is well taken care of! I have a fenced backyard and a dog & cat at home to play with your fur baby! I am also available to go to your house and take care of your animals there.
“Tayler was amazing. My dog Lacey always get separation anxiety and tends to cry when I leave and is a little lack lister but Tayler was one of the few that was able to get her to eat her dinner. Lacey usually will not eat unless I or my husband feeds her, but Lacey was happy to stay with Tayler. Thanks for taking such great care of our “baby”.”
About: After a tragically pet-free childhood, I've spent the last 20 years seeking out any opportunity to care for animals—from free dog walking for friends and cat-sitting for vacationing pals to hiking with hounds and being a designated vet chauffeur. I love exploring the outdoors with a dog, chucking sticks across empty fields, and praising them for every "good stretch"! I do everything I can to make pet parents feel comfortable and assured when they leave their furry friends in my care—including plenty of photos and updates! I work from home as a writer/editor and a live-edge woodworker, so my schedule is entirely flexible and under my control. I have a fenced-in backyard with ample shade where I often write and work, so outside time is always available for the animals I care for. I love walking the city and wandering through green spaces, especially Audubon Park and City Park, and having a puppy pal to accompany me makes it even more enjoyable. My interior home space is approximately 1,800 square feet, with multiple couches and rooms and sunspots for dogs and/or cats to relax and lounge. The fenced-in backyard is well-secured with a 6-foot fence for stress-free bathroom breaks, and my active lifestyle takes me on at least 2 longer walks each day, typically in the morning and evening. At a client's home, I pride myself on being highly adaptable to new routines and expectations, and my career as an editor makes me very attentive to details, e.g., medication needs, feeding times, sleep schedules, walk durations, etc. Whether you need someone to pop in and play with your pooch for an hour, or leave your animal at my home for a longer trip, you can rest assured they will be cared for, loved and pampered in a safe and comfortable environment.
About: I grew up raising dogs and cats in my household. Since 2010 I've adopted pets on my own, cats and a dog. I currently have one cat I rescued as a kitten three years ago and a dog who loves to play that I rescued 2 years ago from a shelter. Im a teacher who loves spending time with pets and I enjoy the extra excitement that comes from watching little ones for those who are out of town. I love showering pets with affection and all the care they need to be joyous and safe. I love walks and play time with all my animals. Getting to help make a pet feel loved would be a perfect use of my time.
About: I grew up in an animal loving home and have had them as pets since birth. Since I can remember, I have been the one friends and family have called on to care for pets, young and old, healthy and injured. I have fostered and owned dogs with dog aggression issues and have a special place in my heart for these often misunderstood souls. I am comfortable walking with them and have the physicality to maintain control and safety. As an avid walker, one of the best joys in life is walking side by side with a canine companion. I believe in taking care of animals like children, with love warmth, attention, cuddles, positive reinforcement and boundaries. I have had the pleasure to raise 3 dogs from puppyhood until their elder life cycle and am very comfortable with aging doggos and those with special needs. I also work part time in a grooming shop, so I can get your baby squeaky clean and beautiful for you. I am currently working part-time in a grooming shop a couple days a week and I work from remotely from home part-time. Saying that, my schedule is very open to spend time with animals. I live within walking distance of City Park and walk almost daily. I have open yard that is not fenced in but I have temporary fencing that I can use for dogs who require more outside time than lengthy walks. I have several crates that I can setup for dogs that need them or if you don't want to transport your own. I follow the owners lead if dogs are allowed on furniture, but if so, they are welcome to cuddle on the couch. I prefer that dogs sleep in their own bed, one of my loaner beds or a crate. I will honor the owners feeding schedule as to make the transition easy for everyone. I do have 2 cats in the home who have grown up around dogs their whole life and are generally ambivalent to them. I send daily photo updates and generally treat your baby as my own while in my care.
About: I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage, from puppies to seniors, with a variety of breeds and temperaments. Right now, I have a small breed senior who is still fairly active. Please use the following link for $20 off your first booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/jonatb76705 I am typically at home, have a flexible schedule, and am available for drop-offs on short notice. Just let me know how I can assist! Your dog will have free range of the living areas, with regular supervised visits to the enclosed backyard, and walked twice daily or as often as requested.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I only watch one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.
“Alyssa is amazing! HIGHLY recommend. She took in my doggie for day care services somewhat last minute and made my rescue/anxious dog feel so comfortable and loved. She was super communicative throughout the day and always made me know my dog was being take of.”
About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I believe they teach us unconditional love, help us stay present, and enrich our lives in countless ways. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, though I have a particular appreciation for larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, Dobermans, and Rottweilers. Over the years, I've spent countless hours learning about canine behavior, training, and communication to better understand their needs and how they experience the world. My beloved Miniature Schnauzer, Bella, was my companion for 13 wonderful years. During the last five years of her life, she lived with diabetes, requiring twice-daily insulin injections, regular veterinary care, and cataract surgery. Caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care—especially for dogs with special medical needs. I understand that pets are family. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra care and attention, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility that I gave my own. I currently work from home while building my real estate investment business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be attentive to the needs of the pets in my care. My day typically starts between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. with meditation and exercise, followed by work from my home office. Because I set my own schedule, I can easily accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. If your dog is boarding with me, I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine and can provide regular exercise, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I care for pets according to their owner's preferred schedule and routine whenever possible. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and secure, whether they're in my home or their own. I take the time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication requirements, favorite activities, and any special instructions. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while maintaining the routines and boundaries that are important to both the pet and their family.
About: I've had pets since I was a pre-teen, and recently I've been a rescue foster for dogs & cats for the past 2 years, so I have cared for many animals, many with behavioral issues. I have two rescue pitbulls and two rescue cats of my own. I have been working from home as a nonprofit contractor & artist. Although I do not have a car, I am able to bop around town via bike I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who would love to keep your doggy company. I also have a large crate in a separate front room if they need their own space.
“Liz was a SUPER sitter for our girls! She had a few other dogs who she was also watching, which made me feel very comfortable - because that indicated others felt she was ALSO a great sitter! We will be re-booking her for tomorrow (Thanksgiving) - and will definitely keep her on our sitter list for when we travel to New Orleans.”

About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.
“Stacy and Patrick are awesome! They always leave detailed reviews of our dog’s walk which makes us feel comforted. We also appreciate their availability whenever we need them. We know they can take care of our crazy husky. We highly recommend them!”
“Can't thank Michelle enough for helping out with our golden retriever. Michelle started coming over 2 weeks ago three days a week to walk our girl Phoebe and she has been incredible. Very flexible to our dogs needs, sends detailed updates on how the visit/walk went, and is very responsive to communication. Highly recommend her to anyone and hope to continue her services for a long time. Thanks Michelle!”
“Angela did a terrific job walking my dog. She was prompt and flexible with start times. She even walked him in the cold rain one day! I would definitely hire her again as a dog walker to help me out.”
“Lindsay is GREAT! Friendly, kind, punctual, communicative, and lets our very large, spunky dog give her alllll the face kisses! Most importantly, our dog loves her and took to her instantly upon meeting her – rare, as she can be a bit selective with new people. We are so, so happy to have found Lindsay and can’t wait to book her for more walks and likely house sittings in the future! 10/10 recommend :)”
About: Hi, I’m Hanna! I love exploring the city with the help of your animals! My favorite thing to do in my free time is read a book on my porch. I have a big black cat named Jeff who is super friendly and loves people and attention. I’m used to living in a neighborhood filled with friends who need assistance with walking and feeding their pets so I would love to help you out. My schedule is super open and flexible so feel free to message me with any questions. I’m open to last minute bookings and hopefully meet some reoccurring faces! I can also care for other pets outside of cats and dogs. Excited to meet you!! I can work dog walking and pet care into my schedule as needed! Would love to work caring for your pet(s) into my daily or weekly schedule I can provide care in your home for both dogs and cats or provide only short term care in my home for small (or larger elderly) dogs when available
“Elizabeth did a great job caring for Zelda She was also able to modify the days needed. Elizabeth spent time walking Zelda, giving here a snack and fresh water”
“Darin is a great friend to animals and goes at their speed which is important for one of our girls who is unsure of everything. He is also communicative and reliable. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Kelly is amazing! So many thank yous for taking care of my doggo! You’ve been a huge help in keeping him happy and healthy. You’ve pivoted from dog walking to helping shuttle my little furry dude home from doggy day camp. Due to my work schedule at the hospital not allowing me to pick him up, you have become such a blessing. Thank you thank you thank you and I cannot recommend you enough!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was a kid, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. One thing that sets me apart is my experience with senior and younger pets. I cared for my own dog in her later years when she developed back leg problems. I helped her move around the house, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her lots of love and patience every day. I additionally took care of my other dog in her early months waking up multiple times nightly to calm her down. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a senior pet needing extra care, I’m confident in handling all kinds of needs. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, so I’m able to care for pets whenever needed. Pet care easily fits my routine, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pets specific needs and schedule.your pets comfort and routine will always come first. I believe pets are most comfortable and relaxed in their own home, which is why I only offer care in the clients space. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect in return. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.
About: I have been caring for pets all my life! I had a dog of my own and am now looking to help care for others' furry friends. I can provide references! I am currently not working, as I just graduated with two master's and am taking some time off before starting a job. My schedule is very flexible. I am a clean, reliable pet sitter and will take great care of your home while watching your pet. I can potentially watch at my home if needed, but I do not have a fenced-in yard and have roommates.
“Deana was great at communication, recording the walks, and keeping my pup so happy! Will use again. If your dog/pet is your best friend/baby, you can trust that Deana will take amazing care of them!”
About: "The bond between humans and animals is a silent promise: love without conditions, loyalty without end” I am an animal advocate and caretaker, a humane society volunteer, foster mom and have had dogs & cats of my own. My roster has included: dogs, cats, ducks, birds, bunnies, amphibians, reptiles and tortoises. I am an artist, actor, dancer and nature lover. Every creature I have found has become a dear friend. I have the freedom to make my own schedule. I am flexible and can work with last minute requests and extending travel dates as needed. I offer pet care in the pets/owners home at this time. I keep to the routine: walks, feeding times and following instructions provided. I love taking photos and will send updates daily or as much as requested.
“Ayanna was such a wonderful person to have walk our dogs while my mom was away. One of our dogs takes a little time to warm up to people but after a day when she realized Ayanna was there to help her, she gladly joined her sister in their daily walks. It was great knowing they were in good hands! Thanks you, Ayanna!”
About: I have many years of experience working in the animal industry, not only from managing dog daycare and boarding facilities, but also managing a therapeutic management company for animal healthcare specializing in PCR molecular diagnostics for all animals. (A-Z; Anteaters to Zebras!) My background combines hands-on pet care experience with animal health knowledge, allowing me to provide attentive, safety-focused care for pets of all ages. My home environment is designed to be comfortable, structured, and enriching. Dogs are welcome throughout the home and can lounge on the couch, relax on one of the many dog beds, nap in the bedroom, enjoy enrichment toys and tunnels, splash in the kiddie pool, brush-outs, and receive plenty of photo updates during their stay. My yard is fully fenced for safe outdoor time, and routines are tailored to each dog’s personality and comfort level. Dogs may also sleep in bed with me if that matches their normal routine, or in a kennel if that is their preferred setup. I have two dogs of my own, so all boarding/daycare guests must be social and comfortable around other dogs of different breeds, sizes, genders, and ages. Grouping is always done thoughtfully based on temperament, play style, energy level, and size. My home is best suited for low to medium energy dogs, and I especially love caring for senior pets and more relaxed personalities. I do take high energy dogs on case-by-case basis. Safety is my top priority, and because this is also my personal home, I do maintain a few requirements prior to booking: • Dogs must be potty trained. Occasional accidents happen and are completely understandable, especially during transitions or with puppies learning routines. However, dogs with ongoing indoor marking or frequent accidents may not be a good fit for future stays. • Puppies and dogs actively working on potty training are welcome, but owners must be transparent regarding current progress and needs. • I require disclosure of ANY bite history, prior daycare dismissal, behavioral concerns, reactivity, resource guarding, etc. • Nervous behaviors such as stress signals, occasional air snaps, growling, baring teeth, or boundary setting when uncomfortable can happen and do not automatically disqualify a dog. However, true aggression or unsafe behavior toward people or animals is not accepted. I maintain a zero-tolerance policy for aggression. • Owners must disclose ANY destructive behaviors, including chewing furniture, scratching doors, escaping crates, counter surfing, eating non-food items, digging, etc Transparency helps me create the safest environment possible! • Any damages caused during a stay may result in repair/replacement charges, with a minimum charge of $100 if damage occurs. Please note that Rover does not cover damages done inside a sitter’s personal home. • Please let me know if your dog is kennel trained, whether they require crating when left alone, and if they do well in a kennel or tend to become destructive only while confined. Dogs may rest freely in the home depending on behavior and routine compatibility. My care style focuses heavily on structure, manners, redirection, enrichment, safety, and positive guidance while still allowing dogs to relax, have fun, and feel at home. Please also note that Rover takes approximately 20% from sitters and adds an additional 11% to clients. If this is your first Rover booking, feel free to use my referral link for $20 off Even if you don’t book with me, I still hope you’re able to save a little! Thank you for taking the time to read through everything and for considering me with your pet’s care. I truly believe transparency and communication create the best experience for everyone involved- especially your pet! The more information I have regarding your dog’s routine, behaviors, likes/dislikes, quirks, anxieties, and needs, the better I can tailor their stay and provide the safest and most comfortable environment possible. Please never hesitate to ask questions or provide extra details! I genuinely would rather know “too much” than not enough. My goal is always to set every dog up for success. Throughout my career, I have worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, and medical backgrounds, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, anxious dogs, reactive dogs, behavior cases, and dogs requiring medication or additional management. While I do not allow aggression within my home environment, I do have professional experience working with behavioral challenges and understand that every dog is an individual. I am also PACCC Certified (Professional Animal Care Certification Council Certified Professional Animal Care Provider), and Pet CPR & First Aid Certified, with hands-on experience. As someone who has managed daycare and boarding environments, worked within animal healthcare, and cared for many different personalities over the years, I understand that trust is everything when leaving your pet with someone. I take that responsibility very seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. Thank you again for considering me, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member(s)! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or administering any special care they need, I prioritize their well-being. I also plan my schedule to allow flexibility for pet sitting, ensuring I can accommodate different needs, whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins I have a fully fenced yard and a friendly fur baby to keep your pup company! There are plenty of enrichment toys to keep them busy, along with natural, tasty treats for some extra tail wags. It’s definitely a dog’s world in this household!

“I highly recommend Regina. She sent pics of my baby after she was picked up. She went above and beyond to help me get my dog to her and from her. She is a fantastic lady.”
“My little pup had a lovely time with Roxanne! They were great with communication and definitely put me at ease for leaving my baby for the first time in 2 years. I loved getting pictures while I was away, brightened up my day! Frankie will be coming back for sure!”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Taz and provided lots of updates. I could tell in the pictures that Taz was so happy and it was a relief that he was in good hands. Thank you Natalie, you’re a life saver!”
About: I've walked dogs in Dallas, Tx for three years. I've been taking care of my own dog since moving here to New Orleans. Love all kinds of dogs. I'm recently retired and looking for some extra income. I love all kinds of dogs big or small and their individual personalities. I'm also a long time cat owner and love them as well. I would like to offer my service to stay at your home with your pet. I will feed, adminster medicine, walk, and groom your pet.
“Jon was great! I had to leave town and had a last-minute Rover cancellation! Jon was incredibly easygoing and flexible in accommodating my nervous pup. Jon sent daily updates, which gave me such peace of mind. I’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog boarding services in the Uptown area!”
“This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Tucker loved staying at Ashley’s house and playing with Opal! Thanks for the great pictures and taking great care of Tucker Ashley! He will be back!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter, more flexible and communicative during a disaster of a trip, with layovers being extended, she communicated clearly and was flexible to keep my pet, I will definately use her again for this service”
“I highly recommend Rebecca. She did a great job taking care of my dog, Bugsy. She sends out photos and keeps you updated on how things are going. I can’t thank her enough of the great job she did. She gets a ten star rating!!”
“Emily is amazing! She was able to accept a last minute booking after another dog sitter canceled on me. She provided Deuce with top notch care and was quick to respond with any questions or concerns I had. Deuce will be visiting his friend again in the future!”
“Carney Anne was amazing with our dog while we were out of town! Will absolutely rebook with her! She sent us daily pictures and videos, and kept us up to date with all that was going on while we were away. Our dog LOVED her time with Carney Anne.”
“Ben is the best!! He treated my pup like she was his own. Dolly had an extended stay at Ben’s house and I never had to worry about her. I ended up having to pick her up late due to airline mess ups and Ben was so flexible! If dogs had god-fathers I would bestow that honor to Ben. Thanks Ben!”
“Best sitter we have had! Our Labrador, Morgan was extremely well taken care of. Morgan is a senior dog and has some specific needs. Eta took care of her beautifully! Appreciate you Eta!!”
“Shannon was wonderful! She was very responsive and she kept me constantly updated throughout the week, and I felt confident that Rowan was being completely spoiled through his entire stay. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Beth was a great sitter. She agreed to a last minute dog sit after a quick "meet and greet". I was happy to have the meet and greet, since I had cautioned her that our 86 pound puppy was very, very, energetic and loved to jump on people. After meting Hank, she accepted the challenge. Hank came back from the 2 night stay happy and tired. Charlie, Beth's small dog, was a great playmate for Hank. I will be using Beth again”
“Julia is a fantastic dog sitter. We felt SO comfortable leaving our dog with her. She has two dogs of her own so she very clearly “gets it” and she went above and beyond to make us feel like Duke was in good hands.”
About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I believe they teach us unconditional love, help us stay present, and enrich our lives in countless ways. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, though I have a particular appreciation for larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, Dobermans, and Rottweilers. Over the years, I've spent countless hours learning about canine behavior, training, and communication to better understand their needs and how they experience the world. My beloved Miniature Schnauzer, Bella, was my companion for 13 wonderful years. During the last five years of her life, she lived with diabetes, requiring twice-daily insulin injections, regular veterinary care, and cataract surgery. Caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care—especially for dogs with special medical needs. I understand that pets are family. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra care and attention, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility that I gave my own. I currently work from home while building my real estate investment business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be attentive to the needs of the pets in my care. My day typically starts between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. with meditation and exercise, followed by work from my home office. Because I set my own schedule, I can easily accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. If your dog is boarding with me, I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine and can provide regular exercise, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I care for pets according to their owner's preferred schedule and routine whenever possible. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and secure, whether they're in my home or their own. I take the time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication requirements, favorite activities, and any special instructions. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while maintaining the routines and boundaries that are important to both the pet and their family.
“They were great with our injured little guy, got him his meds, took him for little walks, gave him some loves and supplied a great place in NOLA to recoop. Rachel had sent updates and pictures throughout the stay, was great with communicating and working with us and our adjusting schedule! Would definitely use again and highly recommend to anyone in the NOLA area!”
