“Elena is an amazing person . She took such great care of my baby and kept me updated daily while he was there with her. Chico loved his stay at Elena's. I'll definitely bring him back!!”
“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!”

“She's great! She helped socialize my boy with the other doggos staying there and gave him a bath and a nail trim before he came home! He's tuckered out from a great little vacation.”

“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.”

“Mary was amazing!! She was so easy to contact and she sent pictures and updates about my dog Max that stayed with her. He seemed to have a great time and he got along with her dog as well. Will definitely contact her again! 😊”

“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!”

“This was our first time leaving Hazel with someone. We were nervous, but Roxanne & Reese made us feel at ease immediately. We were very pleased with how welcoming they were to her and even more happy to hear that she was a very good girl while we were gone.”

“Rebecca was so great! I got lots of updates including pics and she was very responsive. It’s always anxiety inducing to leave Ricky with a stranger but Rebecca really made me feel comfortable! I would definitely book with her again.”

“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!!”

“Regina is exceedingly friendly, communicative, and shares lots of photos. I thought she was very accommodating. This was my first time using River. We met up for a meet and greet with my dog and went over care. I felt very comfortable letting my dog stay with her as I knew she was in capable care. Also I sincerely believe that my dog is better behaved now than she was when I dropped her off. I can't wait to drop my pup off again!”

“Christine made my baby’s first sitting experience so easy! She was very attentive to his specific needs and kept me informed throughout the entire visit. I met with her before the planned visit to ensure my baby would be a good fit for her and her family (very important). I definitely will rebook another visit with her!”

“Dalia and her family took excellent loving care of our sweet mixed breed dog Yeti! Daily updates with pictures and videos helped us to know that Yeti was happy and being loved!”

“Mike is an awesome sitter! He takes great care of our 5 year old French bulldog/Boston terrier mix. He communicates regularly and sends lots of pictures, giving us peace of mind that our little guy is having fun. I highly recommend Mike for your daycare or boarding needs.”

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.

“Michael is AMAZING! He took wonderful care of Olivia and sent many photos and videos during her stay with him! Michael is caring and loving and Olivia had a blast with him! We will be back for sure!!! Thank you so much again!”

“Kinje loved Alejandra, and I loved the peace of mind that I had while he was staying with her! She sent lots of cute pics and videos of Kinje having a fun time. She also was super patient about working with me through flight delays and changes. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone, and next time we fly out of New Orleans Kinje will definitely stay with her again!”


“Blair was fantastic. She was extremely responsive and very easy to schedule pick up/drop off. She has a pup of her own that got along great with my dog. I will definitely be booking her again.”
“Aja was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Milo, over the Fourth of July holiday! She was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared for him while we were away. She kept in great communication the entire time and sent plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the updates that Milo was happy, well-cared for, and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Aja to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter. We’re so grateful we found her on Rover!”

“Raven was amazing! She welcomed Buttons into her home as if she was always apart of the family. Buttons seemed at ease and appeared comfortable with Raven and her family. Raven is an awesome communicator and has a soft and caring way. I highly recommend her.”

“Victoria took great care of my cats while I was away! She was communicative, prompt, and sents lots of pictures. She even troubleshot an error message my automatic litter box was giving and got it back working. Thank you, Victoria!”
“5/5 stars, Abby is very sweet to my elderly cats and they were friendly with her - rare for them when they meet new people! Abby was communicative, took pictures of my furballs, and even brought in a package for me. Will book again!”
About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.
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 taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 11. Neighbors, strangers, friends and family have relied on me to walk, play with, feed and bathe their pets. I'm very loving nurturing and attentive to they're special needs. I'm young energetic and I'm very dedicated to working with dogs it's always been a dream of mine to be a dog trainer so the more time I get to spend with them and learn their behavior is the better for me. I'm currently not working a "real job" so I'm open in availability right now but when I do start working I'll be working evenings or night shift nothing overnight though so plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm very routine oriented and OCD your pets will be on a schedule. I'm affectionate and caring and have adhd so I get bored fast and love to play. I have 2 dogs but they don't live here right now so no worries on my pets being present there are children occasionally in the home but not everyday or all day so just depends on that I don't have a fenced yard but I'm high energy and love walks so your dog will get plenty outdoor time. My apartments do not allow me to have pets here which is why mine are not here but they do allow me to have animals here as long as it pertains to work so no worries there either I know some people freak out when they hear apartment.

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.

“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.”

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.

“Visiting Oxford and so grateful Emily was able to watch my senior dog Lainey while I went to an event. It rained all day and Lainey being thunder phobic would not have done well in the hotel. Easy to schedule. Flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

“He was wonderful with my two little ones. He’s such a sweet man. I highly recommend him especially if you’re traveling through New Orleans like i was.”
“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”

“Cindy is the BEST! We are so grateful and we are so lucky that our doggo was under Cindy’s care! From the moment we met Cindy - we were comforted by her inviting nature. We are from out of town, and Cindy cared for our sensitive dog while we saw the sites of New Orleans! Cindy and her beautiful home with a spacious, fenced-in yard are a total dream! We feel like we met a new friend. Thank you, Cindy!??❤️ We will definitely stay connected! We give her all the accolades possible and will recommend her to all of our friends and family!”

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.
“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!”

Well, I’m a caregiver in the morning and at night I could take care of your animal has much as you need I would love to take care of the pet I am friendly with animals. I love animals, and I would love to take care of your animal. whenever is possible for the care of the Pet.
“10/10 would recommend, 10/10 will be a repeat customer! Rizzo had so much fun, she can’t wait to go back. Completely hassle free and painless. Rizzo loved her walks and has a another best friend!”


“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.”

“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!”

“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!”

About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I believe they teach us unconditional love, help us stay present, and enrich our lives in countless ways. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, though I have a particular appreciation for larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, Dobermans, and Rottweilers. Over the years, I've spent countless hours learning about canine behavior, training, and communication to better understand their needs and how they experience the world. My beloved Miniature Schnauzer, Bella, was my companion for 13 wonderful years. During the last five years of her life, she lived with diabetes, requiring twice-daily insulin injections, regular veterinary care, and cataract surgery. Caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care—especially for dogs with special medical needs. I understand that pets are family. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra care and attention, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility that I gave my own. I currently work from home while building my real estate investment business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be attentive to the needs of the pets in my care. My day typically starts between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. with meditation and exercise, followed by work from my home office. Because I set my own schedule, I can easily accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. If your dog is boarding with me, I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine and can provide regular exercise, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I care for pets according to their owner's preferred schedule and routine whenever possible. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and secure, whether they're in my home or their own. I take the time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication requirements, favorite activities, and any special instructions. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while maintaining the routines and boundaries that are important to both the pet and their family.

About: I’ve had 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.
“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: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.
“My dog, Boscoe Butterfly, is a lot. He is 85 pounds and likes to lick people’s faces. Ryan is wonderful with the butterfly. I have had the chance to get to know Ryan as a human being, and that guy is wonderful too.”

About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

About: Hey there- I’m Diana and I have always loved animals from the bottom of my heart. I am a Rover sitter and use Rover for sitters for my own pets when I’m out of town, so I personally understand the significance of trusting a sitter with your animals. It’s never easy to leave the fur babies at home, and so I do everything I can to make them comfortable and loved till you’re reunited. I’m good at juggling responsibilities and remembering small details, which makes my care attentive to the unique needs and personality of each pet. I choose to do pet sitting and walking because I can’t have as many of my own pets as my heart desires. I would be happy to care for your furry one and spend genuine time ensuring they are having the best time in my presence! Thank you for trusting me with your sweet family and I know we will have a great time. I work from home right now doing program management for local nonprofits, so I can be flexible with caring for your pets with some notice. I don’t mind early morning or late night care. We are newer to New Orleans and enjoy getting to know different neighborhoods. I take notes of all the details you share about your home and care for your animals to make sure I have a thorough understanding of their needs and usual routines, and anything to be cautious about.
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.
“Caitlin was absolutely amazing with my dog. He has severe anxiety and she was so patient with him. Eventually he was able to warm up to her and it’s very rare that happens. If I could give 10 stars I would. In the future I will only be using her when I need someone to take care of him”

About: I have been around a variety of animals including reptiles my entire life. I worked as a veterinary technician for a year. I am trained to react quickly and have a decent amount of medical training. I am also experienced with handling senior animals including those with special needs. I have handled animals that are paralyzed, post operative, and medication dependent. I have no other job at the moment. This gives me constant availability. I have my own transportation as well as the ability to create my own schedule. I do constantly supervise my animals. I am easily able to redirect an animal before any problems can arise. I have fast reflexes from my time as a veterinary technician.

Based in Mid-City, and I have my own car, so I can travel wherever your furry friend needs me. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and more. I love keeping things fun and friendly while making sure your pet is in safe, trustworthy hands. Let’s make sure your pup has a tail-wagging good time! Having owns my own doggy daycare for the last three years, my schedule is completely devoted to dogs. Now that I’m here in New Orleans, this will be my full-time gig! Over the last two years, at the Soggy Doggy I have protected over 1100 dogs. I treat every dog as if they were my own child.
About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs since my early childhood. I currently operate a small dog walking business servicing the new orleans area. I currently plan on Pet walking and sitting on weekends and after 4pm on weekdays. I work full time and get off at 4pm which is right on time for walks, food and enrichment activities. I care for pets by making sure that they are consistently stimulated, whether that be music, petting, walks, conversation, play or mental enrichment. Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, my mom would always take in cats and dogs that seemed to show up at our house. I also grew up riding horses and worked as a stable hand caring for them through college while studying film and photography (expect pictures!) I currently have a 14 year old maltese/chihuahua princess puppy and two 9 year old cats, a tuxedo and a maine coon mix. My dream is to one day open a non-profit animal rescue, a safe space for cats, dogs and horses of all ages to freely live out their lives or to stay until they find their forever home 💜 I’m a part time and freelance floral designer who loves animals! I can be available whenever your babies need me - weekdays, weekends, and holidays I have a ton of experience with all kinds of animals and am very aware of their needs, how to keep them safe and happy!
About: Throughout my life I have pet sat dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, and reptiles such as bearded dragons and currently work at a doggy daycare/vet.

I usually can provide services for your animal in the evenings/late afternoons and weekends. I enjoy providing daily exercise and snuggles. I have a fenced front yard, long concrete driveway perfect for running, and a fenced in backyard with a deck for animals that like to be outside but also need to be monitored. I also have 2 dog friendly dogs and a cat and 3 rats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 11. Neighbors, strangers, friends and family have relied on me to walk, play with, feed and bathe their pets. I'm very loving nurturing and attentive to they're special needs. I'm young energetic and I'm very dedicated to working with dogs it's always been a dream of mine to be a dog trainer so the more time I get to spend with them and learn their behavior is the better for me. I'm currently not working a "real job" so I'm open in availability right now but when I do start working I'll be working evenings or night shift nothing overnight though so plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm very routine oriented and OCD your pets will be on a schedule. I'm affectionate and caring and have adhd so I get bored fast and love to play. I have 2 dogs but they don't live here right now so no worries on my pets being present there are children occasionally in the home but not everyday or all day so just depends on that I don't have a fenced yard but I'm high energy and love walks so your dog will get plenty outdoor time. My apartments do not allow me to have pets here which is why mine are not here but they do allow me to have animals here as long as it pertains to work so no worries there either I know some people freak out when they hear apartment.

“She's great! She helped socialize my boy with the other doggos staying there and gave him a bath and a nail trim before he came home! He's tuckered out from a great little vacation.”

“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.”

“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!”

“This was our first time leaving Hazel with someone. We were nervous, but Roxanne & Reese made us feel at ease immediately. We were very pleased with how welcoming they were to her and even more happy to hear that she was a very good girl while we were gone.”

“Rebecca was so great! I got lots of updates including pics and she was very responsive. It’s always anxiety inducing to leave Ricky with a stranger but Rebecca really made me feel comfortable! I would definitely book with her again.”

“Regina is exceedingly friendly, communicative, and shares lots of photos. I thought she was very accommodating. This was my first time using River. We met up for a meet and greet with my dog and went over care. I felt very comfortable letting my dog stay with her as I knew she was in capable care. Also I sincerely believe that my dog is better behaved now than she was when I dropped her off. I can't wait to drop my pup off again!”

“Dalia and her family took excellent loving care of our sweet mixed breed dog Yeti! Daily updates with pictures and videos helped us to know that Yeti was happy and being loved!”

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.
“Ms. Etta is AMAZING. She treats Bronx with the best care and communicates so well. She is so knowledgeable about animals and makes sure she takes care of all furry friends in her care. I NEVER have to worry about anything when I leave my baby with her. She’s family now ❤️”

“Kinje loved Alejandra, and I loved the peace of mind that I had while he was staying with her! She sent lots of cute pics and videos of Kinje having a fun time. She also was super patient about working with me through flight delays and changes. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone, and next time we fly out of New Orleans Kinje will definitely stay with her again!”

“Raven was amazing! She welcomed Buttons into her home as if she was always apart of the family. Buttons seemed at ease and appeared comfortable with Raven and her family. Raven is an awesome communicator and has a soft and caring way. I highly recommend her.”

“Julia is a fantastic dog sitter. We felt SO comfortable leaving our dog with her. She has two dogs of her own so she very clearly “gets it” and she went above and beyond to make us feel like Duke was in good hands.”

“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 :)”

About: I’ve been a dog groomer for 15 years. I’m very good at taking care of dogs, communicating with them and making them feel noticed and appreciated. I have a very open schedule due to me not being able to groom dogs right now due to an elbow injury. Left arm still works perfectly Petting, talking to them, regular feeding times. Long walks with play time. If toys are provided I will also use them during their play time.
“Our dog had an amazing time with John and Tara! Walks, feedings, play time, cuddles - everything was done the way she was used to. They let her sleep in the bed with them same way she does at home, and I’m sure it helped a lot for her to feel welcome. John has a cat, Pierre, and my dog became buddies with him as well. We also loved how fast John was responding to our texts, and we also appreciated daily pupdates. Thank you, John, Tara and Pierre!”

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.
“Cindy graciously accepted my last minute booking when we realized our dog couldn’t fly on the plane. It was a great experience and she took good care of our dog. We will rebook with Cindy if needed.”
“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!!”

“Awesome. We love sending our dog to stay with Erin and Robin, because we know that she is safe and happy the whole time. They have an amazing property that any dog would enjoy--a big lawn, woods, even a stream to play in. These ladies are our FIRST choice, every single time we need doggy care.”
