“Brenley and his family took great care of our dog while we were gone for two weeks. He sent many updates and made us feel at ease being away from our boy. We fully plan on using them again”
“Holly was amazing!!! She sent photos and videos every day and took great care of our fur babies. Highly recommend if you looking for someone who loves and cares for your pets as much as you do. Our dogs wanted to stay with her.”
“Alex was such a great host for Bailey. She communicated well with me during the time Bailey was in her care. I would recommend her to anyone because she is very loving and caring when it comes to animals. She was very in tuned to Bailey’s feelings and was able to make her comfortable and less anxious. This was Bailey’s first time being without me and having to be with someone she did not know and Alex made sure she would be OK. I would use Alex anytime she is such a great sitter.”

“Anna was the perfect person to care for our girls. Puppies are hard. Two puppies are even harder but she Rocked it. I wrote instructions for her and she followed them to the ‘T’ even using our ‘command words’.

“Ellie did such an amazing job caring for our babies while we were away including outstanding communication with messages and pictures each time she visited —it meant so much!! This was our first time having someone care for them at home and she made us feel very comfortable and it was just an overall great experience. We will definitely be calling on Ellie again in the future.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing. I had a cat with health issues and I was so so nervous to leave her. By the second day, I felt I had left her in the perfect hands. Sarah took time every day to find each one of my 3 cats and cater to each of their needs. She texted pictures and funny stories. She even broke though to my most aloof cat. Amazing! I will ABSOLUTELY be using her again and she comes with my HIGHEST of recommendations. Thank you!!!”

About: I've had cats my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. They're truly my favorite animals, and I understand their unique personalities, from playful and curious to shy and independent. Because of my lifelong experience, I'm comfortable reading their behavior, respecting their space, and building trust at their pace. I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and relaxed in their own environment, and I take the time to make sure they're comfortable, well cared for, and given attention in a way that suits them. Whether it's playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking to their routine, I'm dedicated to making sure every cat feels happy and secure while you're away.
About: Been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life, i got my female Husky in Feb of 2018 and rescued my male Husky in Oct 2018. There is no pet i don't love and so far have never met a pet that didn't like me too, some take a little longer but you just gotta let me get use to you. I am available at pretty much all times, and i have an SUV so i can lug all the furry friends around when needed. I do not have a fenced in yard but i take my dogs over to my mothers and let them run around and can let any dog i watch go over with us and get all their energy out.

About: Cats can be particular, and I get that. Having grown up with cats, I understand that they thrive on routine, comfort, and a calm presence. I won't disrupt their space or their rhythm. Whether your cat is social and playful or more on the independent side, I will strive to give them what they need, whether that's interactive playtime or simply quiet company. Your cat will always feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Recently retired teacher with a flexible schedule available to care for your furry family members while you travel or work. I’ve always been a huge animal lover and treat pets as family members. ( I also have a passion for pet photography.) I believe in regular communication throughout the day so that you can relax knowing your pets are safe and happy (I’ve been there and know how important that is!) ❤️ I’ve taken care of aging pets and know how to administer medication if needed. (As you can see from my photos, I LOVE taking pictures of your pet and sharing them with you! ). Edit: My husband recently retired so he is home and loves our furry visitors as much as I do! I’m retired and home every day so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My husband is also home in the evenings to help if needed. While I’m new to Rover, I am not new to pet care! I will also provide you with an edited digital photo of your pet as a keepsake!❤️ I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room to run and play. Your pet will never be left unattended and will be given lots of love and attention. We have a laid back approach in our home and your pup will not be crated unless you request it. 🐾

About: I am a registered nurse of 24 years and have had pets for over 20 years. I have taken such good care of mine, that I would love to help you care for yours. You can be assured your pet is well taken care of because I require the same standards for my pets when we go out of town for trips and vacations. My son, Justin, will help me with taking care of your pets as well. We are a team to ensure all care is complete and prompt. I work from home so, if needed, can leave for a short time to help care for your pet. I also get off of work relatively early in the afternoon, so that allows me more availability to assist. I can come to your home several times a day and provide walking, feeding, playtime, medication administration, or whatever is needed to help you out.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I own a dog who I raised and helped train, including basic commands and gentle behavior. I also grew up helping my grandparents on their farm, caring for chickens, goats, and dogs, and I’ve watched various breeds over the past few years. I treat every dog like my own and always strive to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My day starts by feeding the pets, letting my dog outside, and cleaning my cat’s litter box. I make sure they have a comfortable space and plenty of attention during the day. I usually leave for work between 3–5 PM and return no later than 10 PM. When I get home, I feed them again, let them out, and make sure everyone is settled for the night. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I also have one dog and one cat who get along well, and I have a secure system in place to separate pets if needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable and safe.

About: I have enjoyed watching fur babies for friends and family when they needed a little alone time! I once watched a hedgehog and my sister came home to 7 of them (she didn’t know she was pregnant) lol. I’m currently a stay at home Grammy, and I homeschool 2 of my grandkids. I have a golden doodle and shorkie inside my home! I recently moved to Ponchatoula, so I also have a lab and lab/Great Pyrenees mix that stay outside only because they use to be farm dogs and never really wanted to come inside. I plan to watch your dog inside my home and I have a doggie door that leads outside into a fenced in area to get some sun or shade!
About: I enjoy watching the dogs play and enjoy spending time with them, I have had multiple cats & dogs at home on multiple occasions including holidays. I’m a retired and stay home a lot and enjoy helping others out with their fur babies.Love to be able to cuddle with all fur babies.

About: I love dogs! I have 1 very spolied dog, King. He's a4 year old boxer that gives an impression that he'll eat you for lunch, but he's the biggest sweetheart!! I spoil and love on him every chance I can. He'll never want for anything, except more kisses! I want to share that love with other dogs in my spare time. I have a lot of love to go around. Your fur baby will go on walks and updates will be left for you to view upon your return! I am a very honest and reliable individual. I am punctual probably to a fault. Dont want me feed treats to your furry friend? I will never do what I am told not to. You can trust me and you'll be recommending me to your friends!! King usually sleeps all day, but I make sure he goes out and runs around several times a day. I go on long walks, but he had a very expensive surgery and I don't think he can take long walks. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or a client's home, all rules will be followed. My primary reason for being on Rover and caring for dogs is to make sure that nothing is missed while the hoomans are away!

About: I’ve owned animals all of my life, and currently have 2 dogs of my own, one which I adopted as an older rescue. I spent several years working as a vet assistant, which included walking and taking care of boarded animals. I also have no problem administering medications as needed. I am also a former marine animal caretaker, at the New Orleans aquarium (10 years). I use this app to have my dogs walked if needed, and I’d be happy to do the same for anyone in my area. I work from home 3 days a week, so I could also pet sit in my home for the day!

I’m also available for dog walking and drop-in visits on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. I have a large fenced yard where your baby can run, a kennel inside only if needed, otherwise they will be cool and comfy with me and my fur babies inside. My dogs welcome other dogs, and they would have a great time under my supervision. I would be home the entire time your dog(s) are visiting.
About: Pet sitting is more than just showing up. It's about making sure your animal feels safe, loved, and at ease even when you're not there. Growing up, animals were always a huge part of my life, from cats and dogs to guinea pigs and turtles. That early experience gave me a huge love for pets of all kinds. Your fur baby will be in caring, attentive hands. You can travel and go about your day knowing your pet is genuinely looked after, not just watched. I recently moved back home to Louisiana from living in Denver, Colorado for the past 5 years. With my schedule being so open and flexible, pet care fits naturally into my day. I am able to give your pet consistent attention, timely walks, and plenty of quality time without it ever feeling rushed. Safety and trust are two things that I will never compromise on. When I'm in a client's home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would give my own. I want both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing their home and their animal are in good hands. I take thorough notes on routines, preferences, and any special needs so nothing gets overlooked. I always make sure the environment stays safe, comfortable, and familiar for your pet.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs through my previous work assisting a sitter on Rover. During that time, I helped with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable in their environment. I worked with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adjust my care to meet each animal's unique needs. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attention are when it comes to animals. Whether it's an energetic pup that needs extra playtime or a more relaxed dog that just wants companionship, I make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve. I'm also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requests. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being at all times. As a college student with a very flexible schedule, I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. My availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays without feeling rushed. Because of this flexibility, I can adjust to your pet's routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever they need it. 1 understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive, following instructions carefully, and making sure pets are secure and comfortable in their environment. You can count on me to provide dependable, respectful care while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve.
About: Hello! I have taken care of dogs since I was 5 and cats since I was 18! My family was allergic to cats (so was i) but as soon as I moved out I got a cat! I also could not take my parents dog with me so I got my own dog. My first rescue is Hercules, he is my German Shepard Pitbull Mix and Scarface is my street cat! (We have no idea his origin we rescued him from the streets in Hammond). A year or so later we rescued our Black Lab Phil! Phil is a HANDFUL as most black labs are so I’ve seen it all. And then two years later we now have our Corgi Cheddar adopted from Tangi Humane and another street cat El Vira. I throughly enjoy rescuing animals and caring for/loving them. I currently work full-time from home. (9:30am - 5:30pm) However, I am not attached to my house so at anytime I can leave and take care of anything you need for your fur babies! I must advise that I will 95% of the time have my 2 year old daughter, Ella, with me. She is well versed in both big and small dogs and cats and very gentle. In the evenings however, I will leave her with my husband. We live in a home, Hercules & Phil live outdoors as they are our guard dogs. (Don’t fret, on cold nights they sleep in the house) they have a screened in back porch with 4 Large fans, their own couch, a dinosaur sized water bowl, a small kiddie pool to play in, a trampoline that they love to play on and a car port so their lives outside are pretty nice! Cheddar lives indoors with us as she is our alert dog, and Scarface and El Vira hang on the front porch! All of our animals get along with each other. I personally would prefer to come to a clients house as it does take an adjustment period to get all of my animals acquainted with a new animal in my own home.
About: Been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life, i got my female Husky in Feb of 2018 and rescued my male Husky in Oct 2018. There is no pet i don't love and so far have never met a pet that didn't like me too, some take a little longer but you just gotta let me get use to you. I am available at pretty much all times, and i have an SUV so i can lug all the furry friends around when needed. I do not have a fenced in yard but i take my dogs over to my mothers and let them run around and can let any dog i watch go over with us and get all their energy out.

“Holly was amazing!!! She sent photos and videos every day and took great care of our fur babies. Highly recommend if you looking for someone who loves and cares for your pets as much as you do. Our dogs wanted to stay with her.”
“Alex was such a great host for Bailey. She communicated well with me during the time Bailey was in her care. I would recommend her to anyone because she is very loving and caring when it comes to animals. She was very in tuned to Bailey’s feelings and was able to make her comfortable and less anxious. This was Bailey’s first time being without me and having to be with someone she did not know and Alex made sure she would be OK. I would use Alex anytime she is such a great sitter.”

About: Hi I’m Mandi , I’ve basically raised & trained dogs of all breeds & sizes my entire life. I’ve never really met a stranger when it comes to meeting pups ! Definitely love dogs more then most humans ! Lol. I also specialize in puppy care / whelping as I’m a breeder myself as well. I’m currently working part time & pretty home based.

I do keep boardings indoors at all times & I always take dogs out one by one for walks very frequently. Your fur baby would never be left alone or unsupervised 🙂.
“Kelbie was fantastic! She picked up and dropped off Zummo, sent regular picture updates, and made sure he felt right at home. He came back happy and relaxed, and it was clear her whole family loved having him. I’ll definitely be booking with Kelbie again!”
About: I enjoy taking care of dogs as I am unable to have a dog of my own due to work travel. I enjoy taking them for walks and runs if they are up for it! I currently travel for work, but home long for stretches to care for your doggie when needed. When I'm home, I'm available the entire day. I have a big front yard and fenced in backyard with a spacious back patio. Lots of room to play and run. If your dog requires a crate, I have the room for that as well.
