“Cheryn was wonderful! So kind, attentive, and caring. She sent lots of pics of my pup and regular updates. My pup loved staying with her, and I felt comforted knowing she was in good hands and having fun!”
“Mike is awesome! My Livvy pouted most of her visit but he tried so hard to make her feel comfortable and welcomed. He kept us updated on how she was doing each day and had just perfect communication during the entire visit. I am looking forward to her having another visit with Mike. Thanks Mike, you Rock Kiddo!”
“Maria was amazing! So flexible, communicative and kind. She was very responsive and sent some adorable pictures of Sancho. Her dog Lefty is very sweet and friendly and Sancho had a great time staying with them! I would highly recommend her services!”
“Used Michael for the first time and our little Churro loves him. Churro was in a great mood leaving Michael’s place. Michael took the time to share updates and photos when asked. We will be using him again soon.”
“Jon was absolutely amazing with our pups.. he would send photos on a daily in addition to providing our old man his meds. We understand that our younger pup has some issues getting along with others but he was able to keep the peace with all the pups and that's a bit of a feat because she can be ALOT. Our littles were happy to come home but looked just as they did when we left them, plump and happy! We will absolutely be using Jon again for our next vacation!!”
“Blair was great with my baby girl. It was my first time using Rover. I would recommend Blair to care for your furbaby. She sends pictures and keeps in touch while you are away. It put me at ease while I was away.”
“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!”
“we had a really great experience w/ ellen taking care of our pup. she sent us tons of pics and updates every day and you could feel how happy our dog was with the whole experience. we felt super at ease during the 5 days that she spent with ellen, lacie and leo, and we would definitely like to use her services in the future. all the other reviews are true - ellen is really attentive to both the dogs she takes care of and the owners. very happy (-:”
“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 is amazing! My dog is very very skittish and usually needs a lot of time to get used to new people. I wonder how Regina could win my dog's trust so quickly! I cannot think of a better sitter than Regina!”
“ I'm so glad that Jeaux and I had the opportunity to book with Ms. Elena. She also has a Toy Chihuahua named Paco and they became like "three peas in a pod!” My drop-off day was very hectic and behind schedule due to me preparing to go out of town, but Ms.Elena was pleasant and patient with me. When we arrived to her home, we were welcomed into a beautiful, clean space with Southern Hospitality galore! During the stay she emailed me updates along with pics and videos of their playtime. Once I arrived home she offered to meet me at a convenient location to drop-off my baby, that she now calls “her baby”, since we lived a bit of a distance from one another. Sooo sweet...but that's not the best part. When I received Jeaux he had been bathed, his bed and towel washed and she even sent him home with his favorite toy from the visit! If you want someone to treat your dog like their own, this is the place. My experience with Ms. Elena was pleasant from start to finish and I would highly recommend her services. Jeaux gives her two paws up :)”
“Rachel and Michael were great with our fur baby. They were very nice to keep our fur baby during the Thanksgiving holiday. We came to NOLA to visit for holiday and it was great to have a reliable sitter near by. We would definitely have them sit again if we come to NOLA again.”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”
“Aja and her family were lovely, and did a great job looking after my girl. She sent lots of photos and updates, which I really appreciate. Would definitely book again and recommend her to anyone!”

“Robbin was SO wonderful with my sweet Nola. She provided prompt communication and even was able to extend her stay when I needed her to. She’s great! My baby and home were well cared for.”
“We highly recommend Cortney. She has a calm demeanor that immediately put our pets at ease. She was thorough, a great communicator, and very professional. She treated our house, and most importantly, our pets with respect.”
“Christina is the best! I know that three dogs can intimidate most people but her gentle and understanding attitude put my babies at ease instantly upon meeting. She shared many pictures with me of my babies and you could tell that they were comfortable and happy with her company. I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah was a great sitter, really communicative and attentive to my two kitties. She sent detailed updates and pictures with each visit so I knew my guys were well taken care of. Excellent service, would use again!”
“Laura took care of our kitty while we were on a cruise, and she is very conveniently located close to the port of New Orleans. She was accommodating for drop off and pick up, and took such good care of our fur baby. Communication with Laura was easy (we had problems with communication in the app, but Laura was happy to work around it). We recommend Laura to other cat parents and will definitely book with her again.”
About: I have had cats most of my life and currently have a new kitten. I have 13 years of experience as a vet tech so if they are in kidney failure or diabetic, I have no problem medicating.
“Lindsey is fantastic! She is incredibly kind and communicative. She went above and beyond when we had a litter genie mishap (on me!) and double checked on meds to make sure it was correct. I knew my sweet boy was in great hands with her, and it was evident from the cute photos and updates she shared. 11/10 would recommend and rebook!”
“Jared was great while housesitting and watching my cats! He is kind, responsive, and trustworthy. I came home to a clean house and happy kitties :) would definitely use him again for my next trip!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! My skittish cats warmed up to her right away. She played with them & gave them extra treats. They’re very good motivated, so they’ll love her forever. Next time I’m out of time I’ll definitely call Elizabeth again”

“Ellen is one of the best. She took loving daycare of Charley and was so good at keeping in touch with photos! My upcoming trip will be so much less stressful knowing Charley is with her when I'm away.”
“Michael took care of our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel while we visited New Orleans for July 4th. We had excellent communication during the booking process and while he was in his day care. Michael sent us photos and updates and we felt comfortable during our visit. Overall a great experience and we would highly recommend Michael.”
About: I provide attentive, individualized care designed to keep your dog's routine as consistent and comfortable as possible while you're away. Because I work from home and intentionally keep my boarding capacity small, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, exercise, and individual attention throughout the day. To help you feel connected while you're away, I provide regular photo and video updates throughout your dog's stay. Every boarding also concludes with a personalized summary of their meals, walks, potty habits, behavior, and overall experience, so you know exactly how their stay went. I share my home with Tully, my friendly, well-socialized Golden Retriever. Because this is his home too, I prioritize good matches and a calm, comfortable environment for both resident and visiting dogs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a university instructor with a flexible schedule, I have the flexibility to provide frequent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I care for every dog as an individual, following their normal routine as closely as possible while providing regular photo updates and a personalized boarding summary at the end of each stay. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I care for every dog as an individual by following their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleep routines as closely as possible. I require proof of current rabies vaccination before boarding to help maintain a safe environment for every pet in my home. I provide regular photo and video updates throughout each stay so you can have peace of mind while you’re away, and every boarding concludes with a personalized summary of your dog’s stay. My goal is to create a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family.
“Ms. Rachelle was the he sweetest. She kept me updated on Hershey and I even got a cute art keepsake. I got to meet her fur babies and the Hershey’s other new friends too. Ms. Rachelle is an absolute gem!”
“Braelynn was wonderful. She took special care of our elderly dog, Trixie, who has a a hard time walking,, and sent photos of our dogs. Braelynn even recommended dog friendly restaurants,in the area, for us. Thank you, Braelynn.”
“Kimba came for a drop in with Natasha’s and had a great evening. She got her walks and dinner. We will definitely use Natasha again!! She also has great New Orleans music advice!”

“Thanks for watching my two guys while we attended graduation. The pictures you sent were very helpful and showed that they were having fun. Definitely appreciate it.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have spent the past 12 years raising and caring for dogs of my own. I currently have two dogs: Wrigley, an 8-year-old Aussie, and Nova, a 6-year-old rescue Aussie/Husky mix who is blind and requires medications multiple times a day. Caring for Nova has given me hands-on experience with special-needs dogs, medication schedules, mobility limitations, and the patience and attention they require. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I treat every dog like an individual. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, some extra attention, a consistent routine, or medication, I’m happy to provide dependable, loving care. I’m currently a surgery resident taking a research year (remotely) which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week, with flexibility to accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m happy to work around your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and rest schedule, and I can provide consistent care rather than rushing in and out. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I take safety and trust seriously and will follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, walks, and any house or pet-specific guidelines. My experience caring for Nova, a blind dog who needs medication multiple times a day, has taught me to be attentive to details and proactive about potential safety concerns. I’m comfortable working with dogs who need extra patience, structure, or special accommodations. I’ll treat your home with respect, communicate clearly, and make sure your dog receives the same consistency and care I would want for my own pets.
“Bree is the best!! She took my giant schnauzer sweetie in for day care for a week while I was working in New Orleans from out of town. She sent me updates throughout the day, always responded to my inquiries, and my Glenda left each day calm and well taken care of. Thank you so much, Bree!!!”
“I felt so comfortable leaving Pip with Cheyenne in her home. I could see he immediately took to her and it was a great fit. She walked and played with him and also provided a calm environment for him while I was away. I am so happy to be able to rely on Cheyenne when I need help with Pip!”
“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.
“She was great! My dog needed a sitter for the day and she had no problems at all Cheyanne sent update pictures, had friends to play with, and was super happy way dropping off and picking up! Will definitely be returning!”
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.
“Reached out to Nicole this morning to see if she would be able to watch my fur baby for the day. Nicole promptly responded that she could. I appreciate her so much and the care that she gives my pup. The updates throughout the day that she provides makes me feel so good about my pup being in her care. My pup is worn out by the time she gets home, so I know that she enjoys her time with Nicole.”
“Katherine and Ethan were extremely responsive, kind, and flexible when we left our Siberian Husky, Charlie, with them for doggie daycare. Their dogs, Gus and Brady, wore Charlie out, and Charlie is psyched to spend more time with all of them.”

“Eloise loved Daphne...we loved Daphne! She did a great job when we were in New Orleans for Mardi Gras with our crazy schedule AND we had to change hotels and Daphne easily accommodated us. Daphne took the time to organize a meet and great with our pup upon our arrival and made our experience wonderful. Thank you, Daphne, and thank you, Rover.”
“Deana was great! My dog was super excited to see her even though it was only the second time! She is great in communicating and really went out of her way to fit us in last minute! Looking forward to having weekly sessions, my dog would love it!”
“Aura is absolutely incredible! This was my second time booking her, and once again she went above and beyond. She gave Luna so much love and attention, kept me updated with detailed walk summaries, and sent great photos every time. Luna was clearly happy, relaxed, and completely obsessed with the ball Aura found, definitely a new favorite! It’s always a relief knowing Luna is in such caring hands, especially when life gets hectic. I truly appreciate Aura’s reliability, communication, and the genuine care she shows. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful sitter!”
“Victoria went above and beyond for us! When the code we set up on our electronic door lock didn't work, she let us know and made a second trip to take care of our boys when we were finally able to get a new code for her (so she could get inside). 11/10 would recommend Victoria!!!”
About: Hi! I’m 18 and a student at Loyola University New Orleans. I started pet sitting through Rover this summer and have already had the opportunity to care for many different dogs and cats. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, reliable, and truly love spending time with animals! I take my dogs for walks every day around noon to make sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. I also feed my dogs and cats twice a day (morning & night) and stick to a consistent routine to keep them happy and healthy. I’m home for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their environment. I follow all instructions closely and keep pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I maintain a clean and safe space, pay attention to their behavior, and make sure they feel relaxed and loved. I treat every pet like they’re my own.
About: I've taken care of pets of most every kind since I was twelve. I was pet-sitter for many of my neighbors, friends and family with pets from cats and dogs to birds and turtles. I'm fine with any kind of pet, especially with instruction for the less common ones. I am currently working from home so my availability is very flexible. I am unable to board pets at my home because of my own pets but I can easily get around town to make sure your pet gets the care they need and am willing to stay over if that's what pet care is required. I am currently unable to board dogs due to my own pet cats and lack of a fenced in yard. I am more than willing to go on long walks with your fur babies and can easily travel to make sure that they are taken care of to meet your specifics. I am very adept at both young and old pets, having cared for many kittens and puppies and also seen many of my own pets through their senior care.
“Laura was amazing with my anxious boy! She was patient, gentle, encouraging and flexible. She adjusts her approach entirely based on the personality and mood of the dog she works with, and consequently my dog is in love with her!”
“Robin was amazing! My dog, Leo, and I were in town for a work trip. Robin walked Leo while I was in meetings, and I know he had the best time. She took the most amazing pictures of him! I will definitely be using Robin again when we are back in New Orleans!”
“I can't say enough about how well Lindsey took care of my Franklin! He took to her right away and loved her. She was very dependable, even with a last minute walk. I appreciate having someone who I could trust with my little one. Thanks so much!! ?❤️”
“Darin was very patient with my dog while we worked through some anxiety issues on our end. He was also on time and gave my boy some good, long walks while I was out of town.”
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t simply “check in” on your fur babies; I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including regular and extended care while their families travel. For the past six years, I’ve been consistently trusted to care for pets when Dad and Mom go away on frequent trips, including stays of more than 30 days. I’m comfortable administering medications, staying at your residence, accommodating specific dietary needs and feeding schedules, maintaining established routines, regular walks and exercise, litter care, playtime, and, of course, plenty of companionship and affection. And please, give me ALL the instructions! You can leave me a legitimate PowerPoint presentation about your baby, and I will happily follow it to a T. 😂 I know every pet has their own routine, favorite things, quirks, boundaries, and very specific ways they like things done. (I’m a Virgo, so I know meticulous details. 😂) I’d much rather know every little detail so I can keep their world as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I will also send you pictures and updates to provide you with peace of mind. I’m patient with shy or cautious animals, attentive to changes in behavior, and happy to adapt to different personalities, ages, and energy levels. Whether your baby needs long walks and playtime, is a workout nut (to keep me in shape, too 😂), needs extra attention, wants a cuddle buddy, or needs someone who understands that affection happens strictly on THEIR terms, I’ll follow their lead. Most importantly, I understand that you’re trusting me with a member of your family and, often, your home as well. I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your babies are safe, your home is safe, and your babies are comfortable, loved, and having a pretty great time with their favorite auntie, while you take care of whatever needs your attention, without having to stress about what’s happening back at home. 🐾❤️ I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to easily incorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Whether your baby needs early morning or evening walks, scheduled feedings, medication at specific times, regular check-ins, playtime, or simply someone around to keep them company, I can adjust my schedule around their needs. I’m also available for overnight and extended stays in your home, which allows your pets to remain comfortable in their own environment and maintain the routine they’re already used to. Since my schedule has flexibility, I’m happy to spend quality time with your babies rather than rushing in and out. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in my home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, walks, exercise, litter care, playtime, bedtime routines, and all of those little details that make your baby feel safe and at home. We spend most of the day together, so they are not alone for long periods of time if I have to run off to check on another baby. I’m happy to stay overnight and spend quality time with your pets rather than simply popping in and out if you prefer. I’ll give them the level of attention and affection THEY are comfortable with, whether that means lots of cuddles and companionship, plenty of activity, or giving a shy kitty their space until they decide I’ve earned their approval. 😂 I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to give mine. I’ll keep things tidy, clean as needed, and secure, and send you regular pictures and updates. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing that both your babies and your home are being genuinely cared for. 🐾
“This is the second week we are using Courtney as our pup daily walker. She has been amazing, super responsible, responsive and made sure our pup gets the best care while in her hands. We highly recommend Courtney!”
About: Hi my name is Josh! I recently moved back to New Orleans from Scottsdale Arizona. Its definitely a different kind of heat here, but I prefer it! Something you may find that separates me from others is the energy I bring to the table. It will have your dogs wanting more time with me! I have been a dog owner for many years as well as many breeds, and have gotten to enjoy the lasting relationships you build with them. I love being outdoors whether its playing soccer or working in my garden, and both are even better with more animals around! I look forward to meeting you and your beloved animals and thank you in advance for choosing to have me as a part of their life! Currently have a lot of availability and flexibility to make your pets my priority! I love getting outdoors and taking dogs on walks and playing with cats providing them the enrichment they need! I’ve got two cats and a wonderful dog that could possibly keep your animals company but also have the kennels and rooms available to separate them! The animals are my top priority!
“Megan, is a lifesaver. I was in texas for work and needed a last minute dog walker. She and my fur baby jade connected very well. Megan is on time to walk jade, she is respectful, and I will be scheduling her when I need someone to look after jade. Big Thanks for your help Megan, again life save.”

“Jon was absolutely amazing with our pups.. he would send photos on a daily in addition to providing our old man his meds. We understand that our younger pup has some issues getting along with others but he was able to keep the peace with all the pups and that's a bit of a feat because she can be ALOT.

I have been thoroughly at ease entrusting Coco to Etta’s care.💕”
“Leaving Bentley with Kate and Conor felt like having a friend take care of him! Bentley was immediately comfortable with them. Kate was attentive to all of Bentley’s care needs. Bentley wasn’t even that excited to see me when I picked him up, which always tells me when he feels right at home with his sitter. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”
“Anna was wonderfull host! She kept in touch throughout Archie’s stay, but not too much so I was able to enjoy my vacation. I would definitely recommend you trusting Anna with your fur family.”

About: I’m lucky to come from an animal family. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life - big dogs, small dogs, old dogs, lap cats, moody cats - I’ve loved them all. Recently, my two children and I found ourselves pet free for the first time. I miss having my own full-time furry companion but I also travel regularly for work. I decided to take this opportunity to open my home & heart to your pets. For me and my children, this is a win / win situation. We love caring for animals and we love the joy they bring to our home. We live in a cozy house in mid-city with a fully fenced in yard for dogs who wants to run and sniff and explore. My children, aged 8 & 4, have grown up with pets their whole lives and love participating in the day to day care. They are gentle and know how to approach and interact with animals of all ages and sizes. We’ve hosted dogs and cats in our home and we truly love doing so. I am active and will take your dog for as many walks and/or jogs as they desire. I also have a fenced in yard for those who want to roam and sniff around. I work from home so your pet will have company all day and rarely be left alone. I am available for on-demand walks, scratches and cuddles. I have experience administering medication to both dogs and cats. Before hosting or caring for any pet, I'm happy to meet with you to get to know your unique pet’s needs and temperament. I work from home so I am almost always around to provide on-demand cuddles, scratches, and walks for pets who are staying with us in our home. When caring for your pets in your home, my schedule means I have a lot of flexibility to work around your pet’s unique routine and needs. As a remote worker, I can work from anywhere and can provide extra love, support, and company for pets when their family is out of town. My home is quiet and comfortable with a fully fenced in back yard for dogs who want to run or sniff or feel the sun on their skin. My day to day routine is pretty quiet during this chapter of my life and I enjoy the loving & peaceful company of pets.
“Desirae was a life saver!! I did a last minute request before our family vacation, and Desirae was quick to respond. She keot us updated, sent pics and videos, and even talked to me about our dog’s dietary needs. She is an amazing sitter, and she definitely has a regular customer in us! Thanks again Desirae!”
“Cheyenne had a great space, communication and our dog Rothko seemed very well taken care of and happy when we picked him up! We will definitely be back!”
“Great experience! Our dog was so well taken care of, and it was obvious she got lots of love and attention. I really appreciated the updates and pictures while I was away, and even got a sweet report card! I came back to a happy pup, and we’ll definitely be using her again!!”
