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.
“Shelby was so patient and great with my furbaby. I ran a little behind with pick up and she and her mom were very understanding. Would definitely recommend Shelby for dog boarding.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
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.
“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!”

“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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? :)”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I've care for all sorts of pets for years. I understand the needs of the busy families who want to make sure their pet babies are cared for while they're away. I enjoy making sure pets are cared for by daily exercise and quality love and care. I will ensure the pets are well fed and take care they are given enough attention. I will ensure the food/water is filled as per the client's request. I will make sure to keep the home of the owner safe and secure for the pet and secure a clean space for the pet as well.
“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.”
“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!”

“Jade was great (this was my 2nd time booking her). Left detailed notes about her visits, and sent lots of pics. Timely visits and did everything I asked for, would highly recommend for anyone. Thanks so much!”
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and even turtles since I was a kid. I'm an avid foster with the Louisiana SPCA. I've walked and socialized with dogs of all breeds, energy levels, and temperaments across the area. I enjoy exploring the colorful neighborhoods of New Orleans while caring for my four-legged companions. I jump at the opportunity to work on teaching and learning new tricks with them too. In my free time, I am a passionate circus artist, so I'm most happy when I'm juggling tennis balls, or using them for a game of fetch. I hope I can help care for your furry friends! I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample free time to care for pets of all kinds. With notice, I can be available any day of the week at any time. My experience with a variety of dogs and cats has helped me learn the skills to keep pets comfortable and safe. I have a fenced yard, and can easily crate your dogs if needed.

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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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”
“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.”
“I am so happy to have found Whitney! My puppy Luna is a 2 year old pitmix rescue and she almost pulls me down to get to Whitney when we drop her off. She loves it there so much. Whitney sends me pictures and videos of Luna and says how much everyone loves her. Luna hates being alone, she has severe separation anxiety, so it warms my heart that she is happy and loved with Whitney and her family.”
“Bianca was amazing. She was quick to respond and was so excited to see Oscar. She sent us some pictures of Oscar, exploring the house and being himself which made us feel very good. If we’re ever back in New Orleans, we will reach out again.”

“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!”
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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Mindy has an extraordinary gift !! My little Buddy warmed up to her immediately!! She sent pics throughout the day on Buddy’s adventures! Just seeing him cuddling on her lap eased any anxiety I had about leaving him all day. She is a true “Dog whisperer “?”
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.
“Breia was a great sitter for our dog Rita. She communicate with us immediately and was super flexible with our schedule. We were visiting New Orleans and Breia was an excellent find, she took good care of Rita, played and snuggled with her. Thank you Breia!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”

“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”
“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!”

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: 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.
“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!”
“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 :)”
“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.”

About: Raised on a large family farm, I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes and there hasn't been one I haven't loved! I have soooo many years of experience with caring for all different kinds of pets. I've owned horses, dogs, cats, reptiles, turtles, fish and have over the years helped with the care of others' as well as plenty of other farm and small animals. I even have my own temperamental pup coexisting with 2 kitties, so I have good intuition seeing signs of stress and pets feeling "off" before it turns into anything. rest assured your pets are safe with me! I've been working on a career shift and I'm looking to be able to spend more of my working hours with your pet! I currently bartend part-time and am working on trying to do less of that, so I have plenty of extra time to care for your BFF when you are unable to! I will treat your pets with the utmost respect and love and will follow any instructions needed for their care and can send updates upon visits! Your babies are my babies, too!
About: What’s sets me aside from other sitters is that I have had not only taken care of dogs and cats before, but I have also taken care of cows, pigs, turtles and many other animals aside from cats and dogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your loved ones! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 4pm. I am also available for two full days durning the week that can be flexible for your schedule. I have access to a fenced in yard. I do not have any children or other animals so my attention can be closely addresses to the ones I am caring for. Feel free to let me know if you would like anything done to help you feel more comfortable. :-)
About: I've had dogs most 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 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’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 been caring for family members pets & my own since i was young, including caring for senior dogs & cats. I am adamant about throughly cleaning up (both after myself & any pet friends!) & am capable of doing most tasks a companion could need! I currently have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most needs with little notice! I’m willing to do check-ins & walks several times a day. I am able to provide lots of love, attention, & structure for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. From long walks & play time to light grooming & bedtime routines I’ll be there for your pet providing services that best suit your needs.
About: Hello! I am a New-Orleans-raised local and a dog trainer. I grew up with a houseful of pets—dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish…We literally called our home the zoo. I live with two adorable pups (my roommate’s) and many, many plants. I am looking forward to bonding with your fur babies, caring for your home, and exploring your neighborhood! I have over 15 years of experience in general pet care and 6 years in canine training. I spent a recent summer pet and housesitting full-time and continue to do so while traveling throughout the year. It has been a blast and incredibly rewarding. I am experienced and comfortable with the smallest of puppies all the way up to giant breed dogs. I enjoy patient training that joyfully engages your canine and am also skilled in leash training, a vital foundation to an adjusted pup. If you hire me, my walks will be structured and help your dog grow in communication and impulse-control. I, of course, would also love to care for your cats, small animals, and more non-traditional pets. I can disperse medication and handle a diverse range of circumstances. I work a regular job but am flexible outside around that. Monday-Thursday this is an 8-hour shift, and Friday this is a 5-hour shift. When sitting, this means I am there for your pet right before and right after a shift and flexible during most other hours and on weekends. Let’s connect and discuss your needs. I will be as attentive and engaged as you and your fur-babies need. I am experienced in reading your pet’s body language to know if they need extra engagement or other physical needs. I am happy to take your pets in my car to play at the park, join me at the cafe, or to drop off somewhere. Let me know what your pets need and we can work together to make it happen.
“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.”

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.
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
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.
“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!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“The best! My sweet pup had the best time. She answered all my questions and sent pictures and videos! Highly recommend Whitney! Already booking my pups next stay 😊”
“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!”
“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!”
“My experience with Megan was great. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, to include behaviors and training. She is patient, easy to talk to, and accommodating. I originally scheduled a daycare appointment that I cancelled that morning due to my dog appearing sick. Once I saw he was ok, I contacted Megan to ask if I could bring him since he was feeling better and it was no problem. She took pictures of my dog while he was there, got him to eat, and provided updates. Would highly recommend.”
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.
