“Aynavia kept me informed on Sheldon every day. She sent photos and updated me on his activity level. I felt very comfortable with her watching Sheldon while I was away on a work trip and I recommend her to anyone looking for a communicative and conscietious sitter.”
“Nicolette kept my baby Zeus for an extended period of time (nearly 3 weeks) while I dealt with a family emergency out of state. I had not a care or worry in the world while he was there, knowing that he was in excellent care. She and her family love on him like he is their own. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first experience with leaving my Olive Oyl and Johanna made it easy for me. She was very assuring and took real good care of her, sent picture and messages to help comfort me. Knowing she was in good hands made the whole situation easier. I would definitely leave her with Johanna any time. Only issue was I’m not sure Olive Oyl was ready to come home she liked it so well. Thanks Johanna”
“Communicates well, his experience and knowledge helped me worry less about leaving Lumi for the first time. I received check-ins/update with how Lumi was adjusting. Lumi will definitely be boarding with Keith again.”
“Nicholas was able to take in my dogs for Christmas last second since we had planned a last second trip to see my family, and I’m super happy with the job he did. He sent pics of the puppies and gave me updates everyday, and when we picked them back up they seemed happy. Thanks again!”
About: I have worked as a vet assistant at an animal hospital for 3.5 years with plans to apply to the LSU vet school. I have also owned and cared for animals my whole life, including farm experience. I am currently working part time, so I don’t have many weekly hours. I also live with my fiancée who is part time as well in a two bedroom townhouse. I have an unfenced yard with plenty of grass and walking area. I have 2 very friendly medium sized dogs to keep your dogs company. I have a large kennel if needed. I am also very active and can run and walk long distance for active dogs.
“Lauren accepted a last minute request to keep our Pom overnight. Lauren is always accommodating and very friendly. She treats our dog, Meryl, like she is her own. Lauren sent pics throughout her stay showing Meryl relaxed, playing outside, interacting with other dogs, and on walks. Lauren is a pro at caring for dogs.”
“Bradley graciously accepted a short notice booking for our dog Ghost. He was very communicative and responsive leading up to and throughout the boarding stay. Bradley’s dog Beaux is very sweet, gentle & got along well with Ghost. We 100% recommend Bradley for boarding.”
“By far the best pet sitter I have ever had! Would recommend to any and everyone. Beetlejuice didn’t want to leave. Wonderful family and pups got along with him so well!”
“Sox loved his time with Christy. She was great! I never worried about whether Sox was in good hands as Christy sent updates with pictures throughout his stay. Definitely recommend Christy and will be booking again in the future.”
“Marqita was Amazing! This was the second time my fur baby stayed with her. She sent daily pics or videos of my old fella playing with her dogs or just resting. I was so at ease knowing that he was enjoying himself and resting well. She also administered daily meds. I really appreciated that!”
“Elise was very professional yet warm and kind. I think our lab may have not wanted to come back home. I will definitely recommend Elise to anyone looking to get their best friend back in better condition than they were left. Will use here again in the future if she is available.”
“This was our dog’s 2nd stay with Amanda. As soon as I dropped her off at Amanda’s house, I could tell Marley remembered being there and was excited to be back! Amanda sends frequent updates and pictures, which really helped us not to worry about our baby while we were away. Will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Jordan did a great job taking care of my 4 kitties and feeding them twice a day + litter scooping. She followed all my instructions perfectly and sent informative notes and photos after every visit. She's a very busy lady, so a somewhat flexible time-schedule from the pet owner would probably be the best fit, i.e. "morning" instead of 8am on the dot. I really appreciated her help!”
“Yuli was beyond amazing! Communicative, reliable, and super friendly. She let me know about any concerns going on at home as well as sent pictures and updates abt my baby. Couldn’t recommend more!!! Book her!”
About: I worked as a shift lead at a doggy daycare called Dogtopia for almost 4 years. I have received training on how to deal with different breeds of dogs. I have worked with a variety of breeds, ages, and sizes and have a lot of experience in training behavior. I have also dealt with up to 30 dogs in one day care room during solo shifts. I have owned a dog for 12 years back at my house in Virginia, and currently do not live with him. I am also very organized and reliable. I will always be on time or early to appointments! I currently work full-time from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. I am available to host overnight dogs and can provide walks or drop-in visits before and after my work hours. I also have greater availability on evenings and weekends, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care for your pets. I am also available most weekends. I am very friendly with new animals and am able to learn their behaviors quickly. I am not harsh when trying to correct their behavior, but will make sure they don’t try to misbehave.
About: I am a 2nd year student at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge. I grew up with a love for animals and decided to turn my passion into my career. I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. I have small animal clinic experience so I am very comfortable with giving medications, identifying signs of anxiety or pain, and providing loving care to any animal. I have 3 dogs right now that I absolutely adore and spend most of my time with. Being a veterinary student means that I get the opportunity to deal with all sorts of animals weekly. Animals bring me joy and the more I can be around them, the better! I feed my dogs twice a day and take them on daily walks. I play with them as much as I can to get their energy out and cuddle with them once they are tired out. When I dog-sit for people, I usually go to their house 3 times a day, play with them, and ensure they get enough attention and playtime. I am also comfortable with giving baths and trimming nails.
“On time and very thorough, plus my animals loved Katie from the very moment they met her!! If I ever need animal care again I’ll definitely re-book if she’s available 😊”
About: As someone who has worked with a variety of domesticated felines, I’ve learned that the last thing a cat wants is a sitter. Lol. Most just want someone who can scoop their box and open their can of food. I’m a professional in that area. I’m also good at reading kitty behavioral cues. I can usually tell if a feline is going to be my friend or not. I know when to give them their space. I’ve watched kitties who are social and some that are shy. I’m pretty good with a laser and always enjoy playing with or sitting with a sweet cat or cats. I can also prepare special diets and give insulin shots. The Kitties always train me well!
“Awesome as always! Kacey is super reliable and does great with our cats. She is very respectful of the house and gives great updates. Will continue booking her for all our trips!”
“Katriana was attentive, caring and punctual. She took amazing care of my fur babies and went above and beyond giving them extra love and attention. I loved the pictures giving extra peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely use her again! Great job and thank you ❤️”
About: I’m a vet tech student with a deep passion for animals. I am willing to accommodate a vast variety of pets in all breeds and sizes! I’m currently available part time because of school. I guarantee your pet will love being in my company as much as I will love being in theirs.
“Jada was absolutely fantastic! She took such wonderful care of our dogs while we were gone & made our vacation so much more enjoyable because I wasn't worrying at all! Would recommend her a million times over!”
About: I love all types of animals, big and small! I do have a small Yorkie and a big black lab, so I have experience with all different sizes of dogs. I used to live in a house with 3 other dogs! As a sitter, I can check on your dog and take him/her for walks or to the dog park. There are a few trails around here that my dogs enjoys, so yours will too! I have taught my dog many tricks, as well as putting him through different training classes; therefore, I can help teach basic skills to your dog as well. I am open to check on your home to take care of your pets, as well as take in the mail and other basic house needs if asked. I’d love to talk with you about caring for your dog! After I drop off my child at daycare, I work from home so would gladly walk your dog to get exercise for myself and get out of those house! Cats need love too, so dropping in to hear purrs would make my day! Safety and trust are two of the most Important values when working with my clients and their beloved pets! As a pet owner myself, I know how important creating an environment for the animal to thrive in is important.

About: I have owned and lived with dogs and cats my whole life. I have 3 fur babies who are spoiled and well-loved, Mylo the Siberian Husky (2 years old), Lily the sweet mix breed rescue (6 years old), and Baxter the Dachshund Beagle rescue (7 years old) and 1 fur nephew, Rufus the Corgi (3 years old) who frequently stays with his cousins and auntie to play. We love the dog park, long walks (Mylo especially), and couch snuggles/naps. They enjoy chasing each other in the backyard and to birdwatch/neighborhood watch from the living room windows. I have experience with many breeds and all ages. Having two rescues myself I am also comfortable with rescue dogs who may need more time to warm up and trust you. I also love cats and have always had one-I just don’t currently have one. Fur babies aren’t just pets-they are family. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I am available for walks, drop ins, and boarding any day of the week or weekend. I can come to you! I have a fenced yard and 3 fur babies who are dog friendly and love to play! I am happy to use crates if that is preferred. While I don’t mind your dog staying here with us, I am also able to come to your dog in your home if that is more comfortable.

I (and my fiancè) have taken in dogs/cats off the street, fostered, and rescued/adopted, so I have years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and demeanors.

I have two dogs, one of which will lay around 24/7, while the other is sweet, playful, energetic and always looking for friends to play with! If needed, I can kennel your pet or give them the spare room if they need a quiet place to relax alone. If caring for your pet in your house, you can be assured that I will be thorough in providing them with some TLC while you’re away! I love learning about the little quirks that pets can have and will be attentive and detailed in my care for them to make sure they always feel at ease.
“We love Lindley and her family. Our dog has been going for almost 2 years. She has loved every minute of it. Lindley and her family treat molly as their own. Highly recommend!”
“I have never used a dog sitting service before so I was very nervous but Jennifer made me feel very comfortable leaving my puppy with her & he had a great time! He came home well taken care of & worn out, which was awesome. Already planning to use her services again!”
“Lauren has a nice house and good sized back yard to accommodate her Rover dogs. This is our first time using Lauren. She and her daughter made Meryl feel comfortable and showered her with attention and affection. Lauren had great communication with us. We had a meeting to introduce Meryl to them day before our dog sitting appointment that went very well. We want to use Lauren again soon for boarding. I highly recommend her for your dog.”
About: I pride myself in doing everything to the best of my abilities and taking care of your babies will be no different! I have over a decade of experience, you can be at ease knowing your animals will be safe and loved while you’re away. I worked at Armstrong Veterinary Clinic for 4 years, interacting with animals and clients daily. I know how to administer medicine if needed. I am 100% free during the week, your babies would get lots of snuggles and play time. I am very friendly, flexible and reliable. I think we’d be the purrrfect match 😆🐱 I am currently focusing on providing pet care full time, my schedule is open Monday-Sunday.

Every morning we go for a walk and eat some breakfast before I head in. A weekly dog trip is always in the works for my two energetic fur balls
“My experience with Robin was exceptional. I have used another sitter through Rover before and the experience was okay, but I noticed my puppy would come home very riled up and needing to immediately decompress. It often felt like I had to calm him down and get him back to his normal baseline. With Robin, the experience was completely different. When I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed, and acting exactly like he does at home. Even during the ride back, he settled into his crate and rested. That told me he was comfortable and well cared for during his stay. I was also a little nervous about having him around other dogs since he hasn’t spent a lot of time with other puppies. Robin was incredibly patient and reassuring. She allowed me to observe and helped me feel confident that he would be just fine, and he truly was. Another thing that stood out was how much my puppy liked her right away. As soon as he got out of the car, he was excited and curious about going inside, which meant a lot to me. I’m so glad I found Robin and truly look forward to working with her again. It’s clear my puppy felt safe and comfortable in her care.”

About: I grew up with a Yorkie and now care for him in his senior years with doggy dementia, which has taught me the importance of patience, gentle routines, and creating a calm, comforting environment. Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays I get out of class for 11 and am free for the rest of the day. Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little tougher for me due to my classes being scattered throughout the day. I enjoy taking them on walks, giving them baths, playing with them, cuddling with them, feeding and taking them out, and just having an emotional support animal around me!
About: I’ve pet sat for friends and family for years and have been walking neighbors’ dogs for a few months. I have a large dog myself so I can be relied on to walk and care for large dogs.

Before moving to Baton Rouge, I used to own my own business cleaning houses and have a lot of experience working in other people’s homes. I understand how difficult it can be letting someone new into your home, especially when you may not be there. I am a great communicator, very trustworthy, and have a flexible schedule. I often send pictures or videos of pets to keep you updated and let you know your fur baby is safe and happy!
“Lori is the best! I love hearing from her while I’m at work about her walks and playtime with my dog. I only needed her for a few weeks but she was reliable and really connected with my dog during that time. No complaints here - would highly recommend!”
About: Hi! My name is Jason and have taken care of either my own dog or my neighbor's dogs ever since I was 10 years old. While I don't have a fenced in yard, I live right on my neighborhood's greenspace, my neighborhood has sidewalks and lakes for great long walks, and I live 5 minutes away from the dog park. I love to take dogs on walks, play fetch, and tug of war. I also enjoy being a couch potato if your dog is more laid back. I have the ability to either work from my home or from my office. When watching a dog, I can be home all day, or if the dog is able, I can only work a half day at the office and the rest from the house. Either way, your loved one won't be alone for more than 4 hours if they are able. If not, no worries, I enjoy working from home! I'm a single guy with no kids, so it's just me at the house which allows me to give your pet all the attention it needs. While I don't have a fenced in yard, I live right on my neighborhood's giant greenspace, my neighborhood has sidewalks and two lakes for great long walks, and I live 5 minutes away from the dog park. I'm an athletic guy, so if your pup needs to be active and enjoys playing and running, I'm your guy! I also enjoy being a couch potato if your dog is more laid back.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my diverse and extensive background in animal care. With experience working in clinics, vet hospitals, rescue centers, shelters, I have gained valuable knowledge about the specific needs and behaviors of various animals. Including dogs, cats, exotic mammals, birds, reptiles, and small ruminants. I am also a current vet student at LSU school of veterinary medicine, which has further enhanced my knowledge and experience in animal care. Additionally, my years of caring for my own pets have provided me with experience handling different breeds and understanding their unique personalities. My experience and my genuine love for animals, ensures that I provide exceptional care and attention to each furry, feathered, or scaled friend entrusted to my care. I am on break from vet school for the summer, so my schedule is pretty open/flexible. I am on vacation a few weeks over the summer as listed on my calendar, and I start school early August and will most likely not be as available To properly care for a client's pet in their home, there are a few key steps to follow. First and foremost, it's essential to establish clear communication with the client, ensuring you have all the necessary information about the pet's routines, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. When at the client's home, provide a safe and comfortable environment for the pet, ensuring their access to fresh water, nutritious food, and a clean living area. Regularly engage in exercise and playtime to keep the pet physically and mentally stimulated. Lastly, administer any required medications or treatments as instructed, while also keeping a close eye on the pet's overall well-being and promptly informing the client of any concerns or changes in behavior.

Knowing she was in good hands made the whole situation easier. I would definitely leave her with Johanna any time. Only issue was I’m not sure Olive Oyl was ready to come home she liked it so well. Thanks Johanna”

About: I have worked as a vet assistant at an animal hospital for 3.5 years with plans to apply to the LSU vet school. I have also owned and cared for animals my whole life, including farm experience. I am currently working part time, so I don’t have many weekly hours. I also live with my fiancée who is part time as well in a two bedroom townhouse. I have an unfenced yard with plenty of grass and walking area. I have 2 very friendly medium sized dogs to keep your dogs company. I have a large kennel if needed. I am also very active and can run and walk long distance for active dogs.
“Lauren accepted a last minute request to keep our Pom overnight. Lauren is always accommodating and very friendly. She treats our dog, Meryl, like she is her own. Lauren sent pics throughout her stay showing Meryl relaxed, playing outside, interacting with other dogs, and on walks. Lauren is a pro at caring for dogs.”

Amanda sends frequent updates and pictures, which really helped us not to worry about our baby while we were away. Will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Savannah is the best. She really takes great care of my dog. She’s everything to me. My dog’s always so happy when she comes home and that means a lot to me I couldn’t ask for a better sitter or someone to leave my dog with when I’m away, she is by far the best in my eyes”
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: I have grown up raising pets of all kinds. I have many years of experience with animals, owning multiple cats and dogs. Not only that, but I am familiar with many different breeds of dogs, ranging from labs and german shepherds to bassets and pugs. I know how to take care of and have fun with any pet. I am currently in school so I'll have plenty of time to watch your babies after school and on weekends. I am currently available from 2:30 to 10 on weekends and 5 to 10 on weekdays. I have a fenced yard with grass and plenty of space for your pups to play. They would be allowed in any part of my house, so you don't have to worry about them being cooped up in the winter.
