“Elena was a wonderful sitter. She kept us informed of what our dog was doing both with pictures and text messages. I would highly recommend her. She has a dog that got along great with my dog. A Plus treatment. Thanks Elena ”
“Iryna took wonderful care of my cat for 3 weeks. :) From the meet and greet, to the day I came back to pick her up, Iryna and her amazing family made sure my cat was comfortable in their home and well taken care of the entire time. Thank you sooo so much!!”

“Blair took such a good care of my Leo Coco. She sent me updates with photos without even asking. She responded to me every time I texted as soon as I texted, even at 12am at night. I forgot to bring Leo Cocos bed, so she gave them nice cozy blanket to sleep in. She also kept them for on extra day with last minute adjustment request. Overall we are very pleased with her service. Thanks Blair for going above and beyond to take care of my babies.”
“Serena was incredible. She was very responsive, flexible to some of my last minute schedule changes, and really sweet with my dogs. I have zero complaints and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Roxanne and her husband are a gem! We’ve left our dog with them twice now when we’ve left town. Roxanne is very responsive and even sent pictures of our fur baby quite often throughout the week. Who doesn’t love that? ☺️ I’m so thankful to have found a reliable sitter just down the road from us that we trust! I highly recommend Roxanne and her husband.”
“Aja is an all-star sitter. She sent me twice daily updates and photos so I always knew that Phoebe was having fun with her pups and getting lots of loving care. Very communicative and thorough. I will definitely be working with Aja again.”
“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so glad we did because we found Randy. He took such good care of our senior chihuahua and sent pics every day. It was so comforting to know that Paco was getting all the comforts of home. We will definitely be using Randy in the future and have also referred a couple friends!”

“Katherine and her family took such good care of our girl! They sent several photos and kept us informed on how she was doing. Would definitely choose them again whenever we need a sitter in the future!”
“Canine Comradery & Intensive Care Our energetic boxer, Tess, is a “social butterfly”. Since she is an “only dog” at home, she loves staying with Emily because she gets to live with a pack of dogs, including multiple visitors sometimes. Her dogs are veteran hosts to a plethora of dogs from all walks of life. When we are out of town enjoying a different kind of living, so does Tess … at Emily’s. Our dog could not be happier with us humans than she is with MJ, Bodaycious, Baby Girl, et cetera, et cetera. In addition to the experience and hospitality that Emily and her dogs provide, I appreciate her flexible schedule, ability to give more than adequate bathroom breaks, and her history of devotion to caring for dogs that need help the most.”
“Jon took amazing care for Panfila. She came back home with a wagging tail and was very happy to stay with him. Jon is very attentive and really caters to each dog individually. Look forward to leaving her with him in the future.”

“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!”
“Michelle was great with my cat, Layla! She followed all the instructions given and sent daily photo updates of Layla. She responded back quickly when I messaged her asking if she could give a more thorough update on my cat’s well-being/food intake and reassured me that Layla was fine. All was well when I came back home! Thanks Michelle!”
“Sarah took great care of my cat for multiple weeks and was able to accommodate my crazy work schedule. Thank you so so much!! I’ll definitely be sure to book again during future work trips”

About: With my background in veterinary medicine, I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior companion, I offer attentive, loving care rooted in experience and empathy. As a vet tech, caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. With patience and communication, I will do all I can to provide reliable care before or after work and on weekends. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure pets feel secure, comfortable, and loved while providing attentive supervision and care. I can follow routines, provide careful supervision, and offer loving, attentive care.
“Lindsay was great for drop-in visits with my cat Olive. She sent nice updates and pictures every day, and I knew Olive was in good hands. She responds quickly and is very accommodating.”
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 currently care for two American Shorthair cats, Rory and Luna, and I also have a friendly dog named Poopoo who gets along well with both cats and dogs. Living in a multi-pet household has given me experience understanding different personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I provide attentive care, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of affection. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owner is away.
“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: 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.
“Sarah was great with my 5 1/2 month old kitten. She was able to play and cuddle with him during his first time apart from his family and he was in great spirits when we came home!”

“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!”
“Michael was fantastic! We were traveling through town, and last minute decided to find a sitter so we could check out the city. Michael responded super fast and was incredibly flexible regarding drop off and pick up times. Also, my dog seemed to like him a lot, and his opinion matters the most. :)”
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.
“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!”
“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.”
“Oshie treated Miles like family during his visit! We received pictures of him throughout the day and we knew he was in good hands right from the start! Oshie was a lovely and gracious host all around! When we inevitably visit New Orleans again, we will definitely be reaching out again! Thank you so much!”
“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!”
“Etta was amazing! This way our first time using the app and doing a dog sitter. Etta immediately gave us a huge sense of security and reassurance that our fur baby would be in good hands the moment we met her. Being that it was a first time our dog was nervous and braked at her dogs and the neighbors; which was very unlike her. Etta was so patient, calm and kind helping both our dog and us through the process. She sent us multiple texts and photo updates throughout the day which also made my girls smile knowing Bali was in good hands. Upon our return Etta provided homemade dog artwork for the girls (made especially for them from Bali). It was such a wonderful gift to remember the day and Etta! I would highly recommend her to anyone especially a new comer like us. Thank you Etta for everything and providing a safe loving landing place for our Bali while we explored the city! Wishing you the very best!! 🤍🤍 Sara”
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.
“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 “?”
“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.”
“Ashley was a true professional and made sure my dog had a well balanced day of rest, play and walking ! I am definitely planning to request more dog sitting from her!”
“It can be hard to find sitters willing to help with challenging dogs, and I have a very sweet pup who, unfortunately, has some separation anxiety that means she can’t be left home alone at this point. Julia agreed to watch her for some daycare while my husband and I attended a family birthday party, and she also was great about setting up a Meet and Greet about a week beforehand so that Sable could be introduced to Julia and her own pups. Julia sent pictures and updates while we were away, and I appreciated her honesty when I asked how Sable did. It seems as though Sable was only mildly embarrassing and didn’t put Julia through too much hassle, so I’m very grateful to have someone trustworthy and kind to leave my pup with! Thank you so much!”
“My first time using Rover and I picked the perfect person. I’ve had my dog for 9 years and always been too nervous to let anyone besides family babysit lol. This was a pleasant experience and I genuinely appreciate how simple Rachelle made it. Thanks so much Rachelle ♥️”
“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.”
“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”
About: After a tragically pet-free childhood, I've spent the last 20 years seeking out any opportunity to care for animals—from free dog walking for friends and cat-sitting for vacationing pals to hiking with hounds and being a designated vet chauffeur. I love exploring the outdoors with a dog, chucking sticks across empty fields, and praising them for every "good stretch"! I do everything I can to make pet parents feel comfortable and assured when they leave their furry friends in my care—including plenty of photos and updates! I work from home as a writer/editor and a live-edge woodworker, so my schedule is entirely flexible and under my control. I have a fenced-in backyard with ample shade where I often write and work, so outside time is always available for the animals I care for. I love walking the city and wandering through green spaces, especially Audubon Park and City Park, and having a puppy pal to accompany me makes it even more enjoyable. My interior home space is approximately 1,800 square feet, with multiple couches and rooms and sunspots for dogs and/or cats to relax and lounge. The fenced-in backyard is well-secured with a 6-foot fence for stress-free bathroom breaks, and my active lifestyle takes me on at least 2 longer walks each day, typically in the morning and evening. At a client's home, I pride myself on being highly adaptable to new routines and expectations, and my career as an editor makes me very attentive to details, e.g., medication needs, feeding times, sleep schedules, walk durations, etc. Whether you need someone to pop in and play with your pooch for an hour, or leave your animal at my home for a longer trip, you can rest assured they will be cared for, loved and pampered in a safe and comfortable environment.
About: I grew up raising dogs and cats in my household. Since 2010 I've adopted pets on my own, cats and a dog. I currently have one cat I rescued as a kitten three years ago and a dog who loves to play that I rescued 2 years ago from a shelter. Im a teacher who loves spending time with pets and I enjoy the extra excitement that comes from watching little ones for those who are out of town. I love showering pets with affection and all the care they need to be joyous and safe. I love walks and play time with all my animals. Getting to help make a pet feel loved would be a perfect use of my time.

“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”
“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”
“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!”
“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: 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.
About: Hello! I'm so excited to meet your furry family members and walk and play with them! I recently left my 9-5 job and am spending my time doing what I love most before I head back to school in January for my Master's. That includes meeting as many dogs as I can. I was on Rover several years ago mostly dog sitting, and it was the best! But now that I have an almost two year old running my household, walking dogs outside is a better fit for me these days. For the last 7 years, my partner has also been a full-time dog walker, and I've been his backup the whole time. Now, we're officially making it a family business as I've started taking on clients of my own again! Over nearly a decade of dog sitting and backup walking, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’m completely comfortable handling special medical needs and unique temperaments, and the NOLA heat doesn't scare me one bit. Let me take your dog out and I'll do all the sweating so you don't have to! I recently left my 9-5 and plan to start earning my Master's in January 2026, so in the meantime my schedule is wide open. My only restriction is I can't start before 8am as I have to get my toddler to daycare. I am a rule follower and someone who loves sticking to the plan. So whatever instructions you leave for how you want your dog to be cared for, I will follow those to the letter.
“I have a pretty nervous Pitty and Lindsay has been wonderful with him. He has really opened up to her and looks forward to his walks. He doesn’t like a lot of people, but he likes Lindsay!”

I am happy to care for any pet as their owner desires.

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.

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.
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: I started pet sitting as my first job at age 13. Since then, I’ve loved animals. I spent 2019 volunteering at the Birmingham Humane Society and progressed in volunteering leadership quickly. It gave me experience with animals of all ages and personalities, which qualifies me to care for your special pet! I’m so happy to be relocated back to New Orleans. At this time, I’m available anytime to come check on your furry friend! I will not typically keep pets in my home, however, I am happy and excited to care for your pet in your home, where they feel most comfortable and safe!
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.

“Canine Comradery & Intensive Care Our energetic boxer, Tess, is a “social butterfly”. Since she is an “only dog” at home, she loves staying with Emily because she gets to live with a pack of dogs, including multiple visitors sometimes. Her dogs are veteran hosts to a plethora of dogs from all walks of life. When we are out of town enjoying a different kind of living, so does Tess … at Emily’s. Our dog could not be happier with us humans than she is with MJ, Bodaycious, Baby Girl, et cetera, et cetera. In addition to the experience and hospitality that Emily and her dogs provide, I appreciate her flexible schedule, ability to give more than adequate bathroom breaks, and her history of devotion to caring for dogs that need help the most.”
“Jon took amazing care for Panfila. She came back home with a wagging tail and was very happy to stay with him. Jon is very attentive and really caters to each dog individually. Look forward to leaving her with him in the future.”
“In just a couple weeks times Mindy has proven to be the best sitter Emmett and I could have found. We truly lucked out with her. She’s thoughtful and truly cares about your furry friend.”
“Rachelle is an absolute gem!!! She is a very loving and attentive caregiver. You can just tell how much she loves animals. My Noche was 'at home' the moment we letting out of his cat carrier. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Natalie was amazing! We booked with her to board our dog for a weekend while we’re were in town visiting. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay which we really appreciated! She took great care of our dog and we’re so thankful :)”
“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 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.”

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.
“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.”
“Bianca was amazing! We had an initial meeting to make sure she and Dreaux were a good fit, and it was clear right away that they were. Dreaux was so excited to be there he even gave her a hug goodbye! Bianca was excellent with communication, keeping me updated on drop-off and throughout the stay, especially regarding Dreaux's allergies. I would definitely book with her again and will be using her for all of my upcoming trips.”
“Blake was amazing. She was available to take Luna last minute and Luna took to her really well. She was also really conveniently close to home about 4 mins from the house. Would definitely book again and recommend”
