“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.”
“Tyrone and his son are awesome. He’s very responsive with last minute requests and takes care of your dog like his own.

I’ve booked twice already and definitely intend on rebooking with Ty again!”

Beignet sent two weeks with Mary and when I picked her up, she was happy and healthy, her weight was good and she had her normal appetite. It was obvious that she really took a serious liking to Mary. I am very grateful for the kind, loving care that was given to my little dog. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Rachel and Mike took great care of our pups! This was our first time with a new sitter and they acclimated so easily. Rachel sent us photos daily and I have a sneaking suspicion that one of our dogs didn’t want to come home haha!”
“Mike is the very best! Selfishly, I don’t want to share him with people because I always want him to be available for when we need him! 😂 our dog LOVES being with Mike and he is so great about communicating and keeping us up to date when he had our dog. Can’t recommend enough! 👍🏼”
“ELENA was excellent with my Chewy! She was so attentive to him. I loved that she sent pictures almost every day. She has such a beautiful spirit. I won't go anywhere else to leave him. He now has a second home away from home. Rover please keep her as long as she's willing to sit with our fur babies. I will definitely recommend to anyone who may be looking for a fur baby sitter. GTurner”
“We booked with Lindsey last minute after an unexpected change of plans. Lindsey was so accommodating, she adjusted her schedule to meet our needs! Lindsey treated our lil guy like a Prince.

A true lover of fur babies, for sure! Thanks for being so sweet! We will definitely call on Lindsey for future needs!”

“When we dropped Libby off there was no hesitation on her part, she instantly went to Abigail for some loving and she wasn't disappointed, then Libby met Wyatt and it was play time. We were comfortable leaving Libby with Abigail because of their 1st interaction. Abigail sent us pictures everyday of Libby”
“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 taken care my dogs my who life. They were always played with, well feed, taken on walks, and groomed to perfection. I love taking care and spending time with animals. I’m available some weekends before 3pm and during the week days I am in school so I have more free time on my hands from working. I have had dogs and cats in my life. My last pet was a female Siamese Cat her name was Nala and I had dog named Bacchus years before her and some one stole them both. But, they stayed with shot updates, vet updates, toys, stocked on food, treats, clothes, love and much entertainment from me. I also believe outside time is very important, it gives them a sense of calmness.
About: I have lived with several cats over the years and absolutely love to hangout with them. Activities range from watching the birds together, to going on walks, to slow blinking at each other if they prefer to keep their distance. I have pet sat both dogs and cats for friends and family over the years. Feeding them, playing with them, and generally socializing with them while their owner is away for work or vacation.
“I had a great experience with Leanne (drop-in visits, 2 cats). She provided consistent updates with prompt, reliable communication and left the house better than she found it. Will look to book her again in the future!”
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.
“Eryn was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all our directions and kept us up to date the whole time. She was patient and loving with our crazy animals and we are so grateful to her. We will absolutely use her again!”
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.
“Ayanna is a such a blessing and the sweetest person! She took such great care of our fur baby and we are so grateful for all she did to make sure he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Ayanna again to sit with our pup!”
“Adam did a great job of caring for Kylo and Gary when we were away on vacation! We booked him for drop in visits, and his report card updates were great, and we felt comfortable with him in our home with the cats! Would book again in the future!”

About: I've cared for pets my whole life, including senior dogs and those needing medication. I love long walks and feel confident handling dogs of all sizes. Your pet will get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you're away. I am currently a stay-at-home mother to a loving 2-year-old, so I will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pups! I am available for boarding any day of the week as well as overnights.

About: I’ve taken care of my yorkie for 10 years and will take care of your pet like my own. Walks and being outside is great! I work part time so the weekends are ideal for me to welcome your pet(s). I work mornings for no more than two hours a day I have a big back yard in a safe neighborhood it’s not fenced in yet. I have a senior yorkie that is very friendly. I have a spacious home.
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”

Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.
“Ayanna was such a wonderful person to have walk our dogs while my mom was away. One of our dogs takes a little time to warm up to people but after a day when she realized Ayanna was there to help her, she gladly joined her sister in their daily walks. It was great knowing they were in good hands! Thanks you, Ayanna!”

About: Hi! I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me! I know every dog has their own personality and needs so I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them most comfortable. I’m available for dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, and sitting/general care. If your dog isn’t feeling well or needs a little extra attention I’m patient and attentive to their needs. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. Whether your dog needs exercise, company, or basic care while you’re away I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I work part-time and have a flexible schedule which allows me to plan time for your dog’s needs. Whether it’s dog walks, feeding, potty breaks, or check-ins throughout the day: I can be there! I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely! I make sure they are fed on schedule, get fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe for the pet. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.
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 spent years helping friends and family by watching their pets when they travel. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they stay happy and comfortable in their routine while their owners are away. From walks and playtime to cuddles and companionship, I truly enjoy caring for animals I currently work from home so I have flexibility on caring for your fur babies! Whether it’s taking them for a walk or babysitting them at my house, I will make sure your animal is well taken care of! I have a fenced backyard and a dog & cat at home to play with your fur baby! I am also available to go to your house and take care of your animals there.
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.
About: I’ve been walking and caring for animals since I was a young child, so I bring a lot of hands-on experience and confidence in handling pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to keep them safe, happy, and well-exercised. I’m currently working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I’ve developed strong time management and organizational skills that translate well into pet walking and training. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be available during key times of the day for walks, check-ins, and consistent training sessions. Since I’m already accustomed to planning my day around routines, I’m able to reliably incorporate pet care into my schedule while maintaining a high level of attention and consistency. This flexibility also means I can accommodate client needs more easily and provide dependable, attentive care for their pets. I provide a safe and trustworthy environment by prioritizing consistency, attentiveness, and clear communication. Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I’m able to closely monitor their behavior, comfort, and safety at all times. My experience working with animals since childhood has taught me how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and respond appropriately. I also maintain a clean, organized space and follow any specific instructions from pet owners regarding routines, feeding, and training. Building trust is very important to me, so I make sure to communicate regularly with updates and ensure each pet is cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine attention.

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.
