“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!”
“Elena was fantastic and sent regular updates about Beignet. Only two other dogs in the home (1 pet, 1 other Rover pup), and everyone got along well. Will definitely book with Elena again in the future!”
“Iryna took great care of my mother-in-law's dog while we were in town and needed last minute boarding after our other Rover needed to cancel their booking on short notice. She was very communicative and caring. I would highly recommend Iryna!”
“Desirae was amazing with my pups! She sent lots of photos and clearly she and her daughter gave them lots of love and attention. She even went out of her way to bathe them so they came home nice and clean! She used to be a vet tech and even teaches out to me with an issue she identified in one of our girls and was able to cure her. Thanks so much Desirae!! We will definitely use her again!”
“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.”
“Michael was amazing with my dog Bella. He took such good care of her. He sent me daily updates and pictures which I appreciated. I will definitely be using Michael again the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“My dog had such a great experience with Margaret. Margaret sent videos and photos from daily walks with my baby. Belle was in great hands. I trust Margaret and will be using her services again for as long as she is available. Thank you Margaret.”
“Ms Etta is incredible! Xena, my calico baby is kind, feisty, and defensive all in one. I had to drop her off last minute for friends in town and the reply to take her in was prompt and professional. Ms. Etta was very kind all throughout the stay, sent constant updates, and made me feel at peace. Xena was very defensive and a little fearful, this being her first time away from me and away from her home, she gave Ms. Etta a hard time (and a bite) but she handled it like a pro. Star sitter is an understatement. Rockstar human is more like it.”
“Mike was so awesome!! I had a last minute booking and he was very accommodating with drop off and pickup times! He sent pictures and videos throughout my pups stay to ensure me he was fine and having fun! Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“My dogs were spoiled during my time away! I received daily updates and pictures/videos to prove they had a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“Cindy took very good care of my cat, Leona! My kitty has a hard time adjusting to new places, but Cindy was very, very patient and loving towards her. She also went above and beyond to make sure everything was ready for Leona's arrival and pick-up. I highly recommend Cindy to other pet parents!”
“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!”
“Regina was the best! This was the first time I’ve left my dog Claire with someone and felt really good about it. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and I couldn’t recommend her enough. I think Claire was even a little sad when I picked her up, they got along so well. Will definitely book with Regina again!”
“Roxanne and Reese are awesome dog care folks! My puppy is still in the "challenging" phase and they were patient and kind and gave her a lot of fun experiences!! Recommend highly!”
“My Brûlée had a wonderful experience with Lindsey! She had plenty of walks and fun with Lindsey’s daughter. I could tell she was a happy puppy when I picked her up! I definitely will be needing her to visit again!”
“Robin was wonderful with our Luna. She has a great place that Luna loved exploring and sent us sweet pics of her playing. I'd recommend Robin and world use her again.”

“Caitlin went above and beyond during her drop in visits with my cat. She even stayed longer on some of the days! My cat really loved her and I could tell from the (lots of) pictures that Caitlin sent, was excited to see her each day. I would not hesitate to reach out to her again if I need a cat sitter.”
“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.”
“Will definitely be using her again. She cares and took amazing care of my cat. I’m also convinced she is a cat whisperer. My cat loved her from the first visit.”
“Angela cat-sat for us for a long weekend and did a great job with our cat. He's only been with us for about 1.5 months, so his routine can be a little tricky. She accommodated him wonderfully, and he appeared very happy when we returned.”
“We were so grateful to find Jamie to watch our fur baby while we were gone for a couple weeks. She sent us daily photos and notes, which made us feel close even though we were far away. She has such a natural connection with animals. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a solid person to watch their beloved animals.”
“She accepted my last minute request for someone to check in on my cat. Very flexible, and despite the fact I hadn't prepared, she took care of everything. Thank you!”
“Deanna is the best - she really gets to know the cats and sends great photos. She even cleaned up a big mess when one the dumb cat dug in a plant. Really feel cared for when Deanna watches the animals!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 6 years old. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, and a chinchilla in my family that I care for. I absolutely adore all animals. I work for a nature institute and have a lot of experience meeting the needs of and caring for a variety of animals. I can care for dogs, cats, small animals, reptiles, and birds. I work full time, Monday through Friday. I am available for drop in visits and day care after 5:30 on weekdays. I am available most weekends at any time. I have 2 housemates that love dogs and cats. Your pet will be given a lot of love and attention from us. We have a small backyard but a good walk around the neighborhood will always be given!
“Chloe did a great job watching my Elton, who can be a high maintenance kitty. She sent daily pictures and updates. I came home to him happy healthy and relaxed. The house was neat and clean. I would highly recommend Chloe to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“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!”
“Dani was absolutely wonderful - so kind and caring, and so committed to making my two cats as comfortable and happy as possible in my absence! I feel great knowing that I can leave them in her hands going forward:)”
“Michelle took great care of my cat! Very responsive and organized, and sent fun updates every day while I was away. Will definitely be re-booking next time the opportunity arises!”
About: Hi! We’re Britt & James — lifelong dog lovers, experienced pet sitters, and proud pup parents to our sweet girl Jessie 🐾 Between the two of us, we’ve cared for countless dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. James works from home full-time, so pups are rarely left alone and always have company throughout the day. Britt works a flexible hybrid schedule, allowing plenty of time for walks, playtime, enrichment, and snuggles. We each bring something a little different to the table: Britt has a soft spot for senior dogs and experience with pups who need extra patience and TLC, while James is great at keeping energetic dogs active, engaged, and entertained. Together, we make a calm, attentive team that truly loves getting to know each dog’s unique personality and needs. We live in a quiet New Orleans neighborhood with a fully enclosed backyard featuring double-secured fencing — perfect for safe play, sunbathing, zoomies, or just sniffing around. Our home is cozy, dog-friendly, and set up to comfortably accommodate different routines. Whether your dog is playful, shy, cuddly, independent, young, senior, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like family here. We’d love to set up a meet-and-greet and see if we’re a good fit for your pup 😊 Daily Schedule: James works from home full-time, so dogs are rarely left alone during the day. Britt works a hybrid schedule, which allows flexibility for walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Time Alone: Dogs are typically not left alone for more than a few hours at a time. Walks & Potty Breaks: Regular walks and backyard potty breaks are built into our daily routine. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Overnights: We’re home overnight and keep a calm, consistent evening routine. We maintain a calm, thoughtfully managed home environment with our pup, Jessie 🐾 She’s a gentle, easygoing dog who has been doing great with others, and we’re very intentional about compatibility when accepting bookings. We only overlap stays when it feels like a great fit for everyone involved, and we’re always happy to do slow introductions or keep dogs fully separate if needed. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. We live in a cozy, converted New Orleans shotgun-style house that’s easy to section off depending on your pup’s needs — whether they prefer their own space or like to stay close by. We also have a double-secured fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Since we both work from home (James full-time, Britt hybrid), your pup will rarely be left alone and will always have a calm, animal-loving presence around. Britt is especially experienced with senior dogs and special routines, while James is patient and gentle with shy or nervous pups, particularly those who may need extra time warming up to men. We’re happy to accommodate crate training, medication, and specific routines to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for while they’re with us.
“Marisa is my dog sitter from before she was on Rover and to this day my go-to for the care of my beloved pets. She does well with my big rottweiler mix clementine who is quirky as well as my Chihuahua Enyo who has very refined tastes in humans. Marisa has cared for my dogs for long and short stays (times when I was out of the country for months) and has cared for my older lady as she was on a complicated daily medicine regiment with no issues. I literally could not reccomend anyone more highly for your pet care needs. I don't know what I'd do without her help!!!”
About: *Pros with booking my service*: ~I am a full time pet sitter! ~Experience! (Ive been doing this for 6 years) ~Professionalism (I was a lawyer before leaving law to focus on part-time travel and full time pet sitting 😉) ~Trust (The majority of my clients are repeat clients) Hospitality and care go hand in hand with my pet-sitting service. For a house sit, expect your home to nicer than when you left it. Your fur babies will be relaxed and happy to see you when you return having been lovingly cared for in your absence. I will strive to uphold whichever boundaries you h have set up for your pup and work to reinforce training. Have your pup stay with a familiar face while you're away! In addition to personal experience with animals over the years, I have professional experience volunteering at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah. One of the largest animal rehabilitation clinics in the world. I hope I can be someone you wholeheartedly trust with the care of your beloved furry one. I currently work full time as a pet sitter in addition to small freelance work so my schedule is flexible. On weekdays I will be gone for short periods of time but can be back every couple hours. I always make sure to get my pups set up when I leave the house. I'm a very hands on pet sitter. I understand the needs of animals and their lil personalities intuitively and I like to check in to make sure they are safe and happy.

“Michael was so amazing with my dog! This was my first time using Rover and had a great experience all because of Michael! He takes care of the dog as if it was his family! Also takes amazing photos and sends them with updates! Super fast at replying as well as flexible! I would totally use Michael again if /when I go back to New Orleans!”
“If I could leave 10 gold stars I would! Lindsey took such good care of my very spoiled little pugs. They hate being alone and I don't think they had a moment unattended in the 5 days they spent with Lindsey. Her dog Lola sealed the deal for the pugs as they love other dogs and feel like it's a party if other furry beings are around. On the second morning we were to take the dogs to Lindsey they didn't get off the couch. As soon as we asked if they wanted to see Lola, they were immediately at the door- such a good sign! Every night we picked up happy, tired doggies. We were able to visit New Orleans without worrying about our babies. A Godsend! Thank you so much Lindsey. We so appreciate you!”
“Ms. Etta is always great with Bronx! I literally never have to worry about him when he’s with her. She treats my boy like one of hers and I’m so glad we found her 😊”
“Margaret was great with our baby while she healed from her spay. She even set up a mattress for her to lay on and be cozy. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Oshie was very responsive and willing to accept our reservation at the last minute. She was very flexible with our schedule as we came to town for a last minute vacation. Jaxx enjoyed his stay with her, and he felt very comfortable and at ease with her!”
“My puppy had a great time with Emily and her pets! They were all so sweet and everyday my puppy tried to drag me to the door in her excitement to see Emily and her fur babies!”
“Robin did an amazing job with our little girl! To top it off, we really enjoyed talking to her and meeting her when we picked up Molly. Robin is an amazing person and we highly recommend her”
“10/10 would recommend, 10/10 will be a repeat customer! Rizzo had so much fun, she can’t wait to go back. Completely hassle free and painless. Rizzo loved her walks and has a another best friend!”
“Cindy is the BEST! We are so grateful and we are so lucky that our doggo was under Cindy’s care! From the moment we met Cindy - we were comforted by her inviting nature. We are from out of town, and Cindy cared for our sensitive dog while we saw the sites of New Orleans! Cindy and her beautiful home with a spacious, fenced-in yard are a total dream! We feel like we met a new friend. Thank you, Cindy!??❤️ We will definitely stay connected! We give her all the accolades possible and will recommend her to all of our friends and family!”
“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!”
About: I am now retired and have total availability. For walks or drop ins I need to keep my service area within 5-7 miles. For longer stays I am willing to expand my area upon request. I began my pet care as a child, taking home every stray dog I saw. Nursing sheep, stray cats, bunnies, you name it. I was then a vet tech, rescue foster, and sitter. As my life has changed my love for, and enjoyment of caring for pets has not. I bond well with animals, and have the experience to know when firmness is required. I will always care for your animal as i would my own. ( spoiled ) I have a good availability and experience with all ages of pets. Including training to elderly animals who need special care. I am comfortable administering meds, and dealing with unique or special circumstances. Finally, I am reliable. You can rest assured that your baby will be well cared for. when I house sit I will keep your place clean daily. If you desire addition plant care or whatever, just ask. I am retired. This gives me great availability to care for your pet. I can adjust my schedule to fit your needs. At times I prefer overnights at your place so as to not disturb my husband. I have a fenced yard. At your home or mine we get plenty of potty breaks, walks, and play. I only leave the house to go to the store or appts.
About: I've had many pet dogs and a few cats in my house since my childhood. I care deeply for animals and I'll do my absolute best to take care of others if I get the opportunity. I'm a dog owner and I have a very flexible schedule. I'm in pretty good shape and love to walk and run around with my Bella. I have a large fenced-in yard and I don't mind dogs in the house. My Bella is friendly and would love company sometimes. I can handle and care for your dog responsibly. I’m retired and like to stay active and I like spending time walking and staying fit so I walk when I can and I love doing it with my dog buddies. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run around in, it’s safe and secure. My dog would like to get to know some other dogs.
“We can't thank Laura enough for her amazing service! We needed a dog sitter on short notice—less than 24 hours—and Laura stepped in and truly saved the day. Her responsiveness and professionalism put us at ease right from the start. Our dog had a fantastic day with Laura. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which reassured us that our fur baby was in great hands. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you again, Laura!”
“Evlin was Great! She took great care of my dog Dutch. She sent pictures daily and made sure he had plenty of attention. I would definitely use her service again.”

“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.”
“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!”
“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”
About: I've been caring for dogs for eight years! I started in high school when I regularly looked after my neighbor's three dogs for anywhere from a few days to a couple of months at a time. I quickly learned each dog's individual needs: their walk schedule, bathroom habits, eating preferences, and how to get them to take their meds. They were all different sizes and breeds, and I loved every minute of it. Since then I've expanded my experience through Rover, caring for multiple dogs across a variety of households. When I visit, I'm responsible and thorough. I make sure water bowls are filled, each dog gets real playtime and attention, meals are portioned correctly, and everything is secure before I leave. Honestly, animals are just a huge part of my everyday life. I have my own gray cat named Pluto, who I've had for six years and who is absolutely the light of my life. Between my sisters and my closest friends, I'm around anywhere from two to six cats on any given day, so pets are my life. I would have had a dog too if my parents had let me! I treat every dog I visit like they're my own. There's something so special about bonding with a pet since they're each so unique, and getting to make new furry friends through is an absolute joy. I just finished my undergraduate degree so I'm on summer break before I start my graduate program in August. This means that I am completely flexible and can come in on any days at any times to care for your fur babies! For drop-ins, I cover all the basics: food, water, cleaning up messes, bringing in the mail, making sure everything is locked up tight. But what I care about most is that each pet actually feels loved while their owner is away. I take my time with every visit and give each animal real attention, not just a quick pass-through. When pets are worried, anxious, or want to play, I like to spend a lot of extra time with them so they can feel safe and loved.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with a wide range of personalities, from high-energy dogs to more sensitive or anxious ones. I’m especially attentive to a dog’s emotional needs and body language, and I prioritize making them feel safe, calm, and understood in their environment. I have hands-on experience with crate training, building positive associations, and helping dogs develop confidence when left alone. I’m patient, consistent, and gentle in my approach, and I tailor care to each dog rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to create a calm, secure experience for them while you’re away. I occasionally bring my well-socialized dog with me for longer stays, but only with prior approval and proper introductions. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I structure my days around walks, play, and downtime, and I’m mindful of keeping routines consistent so pets feel secure. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended care on both weekdays and weekends, and I prioritize being present rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I provide a calm, structured, and attentive environment where your pet’s safety and comfort are the top priority. I pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and individual needs, and I adjust my approach to help each dog feel secure and understood. I’m experienced with crate use, positive reinforcement, and helping dogs settle in new environments. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible and take care to avoid overwhelming situations, especially for more sensitive or anxious dogs. In your home or mine, I maintain a clean, predictable space and ensure pets are supervised, exercised appropriately, and never left in situations where they could feel unsafe or stressed.
About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.

“Dani was great with my two cats and one dog. She was incredibly communicative and responsive. All my girls were happy and well fed when I returned from my trip. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat/dog sitter”
“Michelle is wonderful with my new rescue pup, Harriet. Michelle is on time, treats Harriet like her own fur baby, and is a great communicator. It’s so nice to have peace of mind knowing Harriet is in loving and responsible hands. Thanks, Michelle!”
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.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone. I am able to work remotely so care during the day is no issue. I live in an apartment in Meraux above my dad’s office, so while there’s no yard, we have plenty of space to get outside for walks. There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.
“Bianca was great! She was so sweet and good with Louie. She showed up on time and communicated with me about how Louie’s walk went and sent the best pictures”
“Chloe is dedicated to walking my pup who loves her. She braves all weather conditions and schedule changes with a good attitude. My dog Sophie gets the zoomies after every walk.”
“Deana was wonderful with Oggi. Had her for a week to help out while I worked & he loved her. Professional, on time, followed all instructions & attentive noticing when he got tired or the heat was a bit much for him. If you want someone who will care for your fur baby I recommend her”

About: I've had dogs all of my adult life. I had 6 at one time and now have 2 Chihuahuas who I adore. I love all pets and want to be your pups best friend. I regularly pet sit for my 2 kids' dogs (Frenchie, Australian shepherd and golden doodle). I've also pet sat at a good friend's house for her 3 pups and brought my 2 also. I am retired so I have a lot of free time. I can walk or visit your pups regularly. My schedule is very flexible. I can help out at any time. I have a fenced yard and it is secure. My pups can't get out and they get along with all dogs. My pups are treated like the king and queen they are.
About: I lost my own dog, Maika, a few years ago. She was 14 years old but it was way too early … I’m not ready to get a new dog myself, so Rover has been perfect. I moved to New Orleans a few years ago from Minnesota, where I was also an active member of Rover. My partner, Jonathan, and I bought a house that was built in 1909 — originally as an outdoor market in Holy Cross. It’s now a huge open space attached to a large fenced in yard. Dogs love it!. The dogs hang with me and I usually leave the door open to the back yard, which is basically a mini park with several fruit trrees. The neighborhood itself is also wonderful, there’s a large open field that is fenced in, I a great place for playing fetch or chasing frisbees. The levee is also perfect for long morning or evening walks. I''m a writer and work from home, so having a pup or two around is a real pleasure. I often take the dogs on walks or runs along the levee. But there’s also plenty of space in the house in yard if they just want to chill at home. Usually I work and puddle about doing arts and crafts and doggy's tag behind. The yard has both sunny spots and nice shade… Perfect for the pups.
About: 8 years of vet technician experience, CPR administration of medicine. Knowing behavior and most important making sure they feel as if they are at home. My name is Brittany, I have full availability. I am looking to make this my full time job so I can finish online college for my bachelor's in psychology and attend to my daughter. I go by Desirae as well. I have a fenced in back yard and also enough bedrooms to separate any that need separated. If I go to someone's home I will do as they ask.
About: Hi, I’m Ashley, owner of Woofrey’s Wags & Wellness! I have years of professional experience in the animal industry, including managing dog daycare and boarding facilities, as well as managing a veterinary molecular diagnostics company specializing in PCR testing for animals of every kind, literally A to Z, from anteaters to zebras! My background combines hands on pet care with animal health knowledge, allowing me to provide attentive, safety focused care for pets of all ages, breeds, personalities, and medical needs. I am also PACCC Certified, a Certified Professional Animal Care Provider, as well as Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. My home is designed to be a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment where dogs are treated like family. Guests are welcome throughout the home and can enjoy cozy dog beds, the couch, enrichment toys, tunnels, brush outs, a kiddie pool, a fully fenced yard, and plenty of photo updates during their stay. Dogs are welcome to sleep in bed with me if that’s what they’re used to, or they can be kenneled if that’s their normal routine. Because I have two friendly resident dogs, all boarding and daycare guests must be comfortable around dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and genders. Playgroups are carefully matched based on temperament, play style, size, and energy level. My home is generally best suited for low to medium energy dogs, and I especially love caring for senior pets and laid back personalities. High energy dogs are welcomed on a case by case basis. Safety is always my top priority, so I do have a few requirements before accepting bookings. • Dogs should be potty trained. I completely understand that occasional accidents happen, especially during transitions or with puppies learning routines. However, frequent accidents or ongoing indoor marking may not be the best fit for my home. • Puppies are welcome, but I ask that owners are completely transparent about their current potty training progress and care needs. • Please disclose any bite history, behavioral concerns, previous daycare dismissals, reactivity, resource guarding, destructive habits, separation anxiety, escaping crates, counter surfing, digging, chewing, or other behaviors that may affect their stay. • Dogs displaying normal stress behaviors such as growling, air snaps, baring teeth, or setting boundaries while uncomfortable are not automatically disqualified. However, true aggression toward people or other animals is not accepted. I maintain a zero tolerance policy for aggression within my home. Transparency allows me to safely manage personalities, prevent conflicts, and create the best experience for everyone. Please also let me know whether your dog is kennel trained, whether they need to be crated when left alone, and if they relax well in a kennel or become stressed while confined. Depending on each dog’s behavior and routine, many guests are able to enjoy supervised free roam privileges. Since Rover does not cover damage inside a sitter’s personal home, owners are responsible for any damages caused during a stay. Repair or replacement costs may apply, with a minimum charge of $100 if damage occurs. While my home environment is intentionally structured and carefully managed, I am also comfortable taking on more complex behavioral or medical cases within a client’s home. My care style focuses on structure, enrichment, positive guidance, manners, redirection, safety, and making every dog feel comfortable, confident, and at home. Every routine is individualized because no two dogs are exactly alike. If you’re new to Rover, feel free to use my referral link for $20 off your first booking. NOTE: Rover keeps 20% of sitter earnings while adding approximately 11% in fees to the client. The more I know about your dog’s routine, personality, quirks, anxieties, favorite activities, and individual needs, the better I can tailor their stay. I would always rather know too much than not enough. Thank you so much for taking the time to read through everything and for considering me with your pet’s care. I truly believe great communication creates the safest and most enjoyable experience for everyone, especially your pet. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 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!

“Iryna took great care of my mother-in-law's dog while we were in town and needed last minute boarding after our other Rover needed to cancel their booking on short notice. She was very communicative and caring. I would highly recommend Iryna!”
“Desirae was amazing with my pups! She sent lots of photos and clearly she and her daughter gave them lots of love and attention. She even went out of her way to bathe them so they came home nice and clean! She used to be a vet tech and even teaches out to me with an issue she identified in one of our girls and was able to cure her. Thanks so much Desirae!! We will definitely use her again!”
“My dog had such a great experience with Margaret. Margaret sent videos and photos from daily walks with my baby. Belle was in great hands. I trust Margaret and will be using her services again for as long as she is available. Thank you Margaret.”
“Ms Etta is incredible! Xena, my calico baby is kind, feisty, and defensive all in one. I had to drop her off last minute for friends in town and the reply to take her in was prompt and professional. Ms. Etta was very kind all throughout the stay, sent constant updates, and made me feel at peace. Xena was very defensive and a little fearful, this being her first time away from me and away from her home, she gave Ms. Etta a hard time (and a bite) but she handled it like a pro. Star sitter is an understatement. Rockstar human is more like it.”
“Cindy took very good care of my cat, Leona! My kitty has a hard time adjusting to new places, but Cindy was very, very patient and loving towards her. She also went above and beyond to make sure everything was ready for Leona's arrival and pick-up. I highly recommend Cindy to other pet parents!”
“Regina was the best! This was the first time I’ve left my dog Claire with someone and felt really good about it. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and I couldn’t recommend her enough. I think Claire was even a little sad when I picked her up, they got along so well. Will definitely book with Regina again!”
“Roxanne and Reese are awesome dog care folks! My puppy is still in the "challenging" phase and they were patient and kind and gave her a lot of fun experiences!! Recommend highly!”
“My Brûlée had a wonderful experience with Lindsey! She had plenty of walks and fun with Lindsey’s daughter. I could tell she was a happy puppy when I picked her up! I definitely will be needing her to visit again!”
“Robin was wonderful with our Luna. She has a great place that Luna loved exploring and sent us sweet pics of her playing. I'd recommend Robin and world use her again.”
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!”
“Kenneth watched my dog nova for a day and overnight when I went to a Mardi Gras parade and I can’t be more pleased. First off it was last minute and during Mardi Gras nonetheless so it was very challenging to find someone, Kenneth made it easy and responded to my request almost immediately. I was able to drop nova off and felt like I left her in good hands. Kenneth sent me lots of videos and photos during his time with nova which was also super appreciated. And finally when I was an hour late picking her up because I lost my keys and had to wait on a locksmith, he didn’t mind. Overall if I could give 6 stars I would and if I need a dog sitter in New Orleans again I know who to ask. Thanks so much Kenneth!”
“Katherine and Ethan were great with Bruno! It was our first time leaving him with people that werent family and he got along great. They have 2 dogs brady and gus that were awesome for companionship and burning his energy. Katherine was also great for updating us throughout the day. Five stars and would definitely recommend!! To”
“I am so grateful for the care you gave my little girl. Thank you so much for keeping me informed, sending me photos and videos, and being patient with me through your messages and understanding. I know from your videos that she was comfortable with you.”
“Dex was very sweet to my girls especially Raven, my shy girl. They were very patient with her and provided her with the comfort needed for Raven to get comfortable. My girls were treated like family with Dex, and that is all I can ask for. This was my first time leaving my girls with a stranger rather than family, and I was very nervous. Dex has melted away those nerves. I plan on using their services again for another upcoming trip.”
About: Hi! My name is Brion. (Bree-ahn) I’m a 32 year old female. I’ve always had some sort of pet in my life. I currently have a 1 y/o male golden doodle who is not spayed. I also have a 6 y/o daughter who absolutely adores animals. On weekends my daughter and I would love nothing more than a play buddy. We like taking walks outside and getting fresh air when needed. We live in a fenced home with a backyard, front yard, & a park. So there’s plenty of space for activities and energy. I also have a large cage of my own if needed.
“Awesome dog sitter, he even gave nahla a bath while she was there. The most impressive part was the property, lots of space for Nahla to roam, separate area for going potty. Very friendly and loving caregiver that does not discriminate against breeds. Will use this service again, Thank You !”
