“Melanie kept one of our dogs, Dax, during the day of our son’s birthday party. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and took great care of our baby! Dax seemed to really enjoy it there and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Hilarie is THE BEST! When we pull up to Hilarie’s house, our dog gets SO excited which is clear proof that our dog is in wonderful hands. Hilarie has been extremely flexible with us which makes working with her so easy. She sends us periodic updates which gives us a warm & fuzzy feeling that our girl is safe. We are repeat customers and highly recommend her!”
“Kaley was a WONDERFUL dog sitter. She was very communicative and updated me throughout the day about my two dogs. They loved staying with her and she was so kind to give us some products to help with a hot spot! Our boys will be staying with Kaley next time!!!”
“Dani was INCREDIBLE. We’ve never used Rover before and felt extremely comfortable leaving our dog in her hands. She was responsive, extremely kind when we dropped our dog off & sent frequent updates letting us know she was doing well which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend Dani and we will be a repeat customer ♥️🐾”
“It was Luka’s second time staying with Samantha and she did a good job with communicating and sending pictures. I will def book again soon especially since it’s not too far away from my house to drop off.”
About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.
“Wow!! Before I tell you how incredible our experience with Susan was, I want to first tell you quickly about our horrible experience 3 weeks before when we boarded Bilbo at a local Groomer/Vet/Boarding Center in Shreveport for 8 days. From beginning to end, it was a nightmare, but I'll spare all the details except that when we picked Bilbo up, he wasn't right. He was dirty (even though they are supposed to give him a complimentary bath before pick up) and looked haggard and weary (his eyes were red) and could not make a sound because he was so hoarse from barking. When we got him home, he was panting and drooling excessively. For two (2) days and nights, he paced and panted and did not sleep. We were worried so we took him to his normal veterinarian and they had to put him on antibiotics and another medication. Two hundred dollar ($250) vet bill, Thank You! I don't know what happened, but we knew we could NEVER take him to another Vet/Boarding Center. I started looking online for local pet sitters and after careful scrutinization and reading lots of reviews, I found Susan (Angelic Choir Sounds). We corresponded over Rover.com and I knew that she would take good care of him. When we got to her property and my husband and I walked her spacious fenced in backyard, I knew that Bilbo would be in heaven there! It was a dog's dream getaway with so much space, trees, shade and a flowing water pond for fresh water if he got thirsty. But, then, Susan showed us where Bilbo would be spending his time (with her) and I was blown away. The large, separate, air conditioned building was set up like an extension of her main house. It was open and comfortable just like home (like a cabin style) with a living area, a sleeping area and a dining area for her comfort while she stayed with Bilbo and a couple of other sweet doggies who were set up in large open gated and separated spaces. Each dog had a couch and a rug and were just steps away from Susan at all times. I was impressed with how intimately Susan knew each of the animals that were in her care. She was prepared and equipped to take care of my dog's needs, no matter what they were. When my husband and I left, we felt such a worry and a burden lifted and knew we'd really be able to enjoy our vacation and that he'd be on his own little vacation too!! The day that we arrived to our vacation place, I got a text and a picture of Bilbo walking around outside. I continued to receive photos and updates of what Bilbo was doing every morning and every evening. My husband and I were just giddy about it! At home, Bilbo runs when we pull out our cell phones or camera to take his picture, but he let her take numerous pics of him. We laughed and said, "What the HECK!!" Moreover, Susan was very personable and professional! We brought her back an assortment of fudge as a tiny token of our appreciation, but really there was no gift that could have expressed how grateful we were :) We will always book with Susan going forward, God willing she's available!! I highly recommend booking with Susan. She keeps her number of doggies to a small number, so don't wait!! Regards, Lydia & Andre”
About: I’m an 18 year old college student who loves to be around animals any chance I can. What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and diverse skill set. With a strong background in both puppy training and senior pet care, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each dog. My commitment to safety and well-being is reflected in my 5-star reviews from satisfied clients, who appreciate my attentive and compassionate approach. By providing personalized care and maintaining open communication, I ensure a positive experience for both pets and their owners. Trust me to give your furry friend the best care possible! I work my own scedule so I usually have a lot of time to do pet sitting.i whould love to do this full time if I had the opportunity an clientele I have a back yard with one bar gate door that stands very tall so no animals could get out.i have air conditioning so when they come in they could be cool
About: I’ve loved animals since I was young. I grew up with goats, cats, dogs, bunnies, and many more fun critters. I find a lot of joy being around animals. When I was 9 I helped my family’s pet goat give birth and helped raise them until they were rehomed to different farms. That is just one of the many fun stories I have from growing up surrounded by a variety of animals. I’m pretty comfortable with all personalities of pets and am very accommodating to specific routines and lifestyles. I used to work at a pet hospital so, that educated me on how to care for injured or sick pets. As well as, how to handle different behaviors of pets to benefit their safety and day to day life. I believe that all pets deserve kind and loving care no matter the age. I’m currently a stay at home wife with plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available Monday-Saturday all day and Sundays after 12 PM, unless we make special accommodations for overnights or other accommodations. I live in a quiet neighborhood and have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for playing and exercise. I also have two dogs that love making new friends. For boarding at my house I like to let the dogs have plenty of outside time. Whether it’s in the backyard playing, going on a walk, or a trip to the dog park. I’m also up for quiet days with snuggles on the couch. I am happy to crate your dog if requested- one of my dogs are crated when they are home alone due to anxiety so I understand the necessity if needed. I also have indoor cameras to monitor my pets while I’m not home, so your pets will always have an eye on them even if I’m not physically there to ensure their safety. For overnight stays in your home, it is completely up to your discretion how you’d like me to care for your pets. If you have special instructions for your pet care I am open to almost anything, I don’t think any ask is too big or too small.
“Excellent care Melissa took excellent care of my two fur babies. She provided a few pictures showing that they were adjusting to being with her. The next she let me know that they were doing well. When I picked them up both puppies were playful and happy.”
“Brooke and Bobby are amazing people and took such good care of our big baby girl. She’s a lot but they had so much patience with her and updated me daily during her stay! Would most definitely recommend them!!”
“Jamie, Is two words Simply AMAZING!!! my pup Meesha is a rescue and I worry about leaving her with sitters because I don’t want her to feel like she is being abandoned again. Jamie made sure that didn’t happen!!! From all the love she showed Meesha and also her kids play and showing love to Meesha. I wasn’t sure if Meesha was even going to want to come back home. We will definitely be rebooking with Jamie.”
“Chewy loved his stay and the friends he made over there during his stay. Passion kept us updated throughout and had great communication. You can tell she truly has a heart for dogs and I won’t be using anyone else but her from here on out!”
“Zack is the best! We left our three babies with Zac, one being 15 years old with a medical condition. Zack put our fears to rest to the point we were able to celebrate our wedding without concerns of how our dogs were being treated and cared for. We extended a day and Zac was caring enough to let us know he would be away from the dogs all day and if we were okay with it. We will definitely use him again and recommend to anyone with Barksdale AFB access.”
“I will be rebooking. Andrea and her husband was fantastic! They communicated really well, I always got an update on my baby. My baby loved being there he was really happy! They made me feel at peace while I was away that my baby was in good hands!”
“If you are looking for the perfect pet sitter, she’s the one you need!! She is absolutely the best. I know my cats can be difficult to handle at times, but she was incredibly patient with them. I felt completely at ease leaving my cats in her care😊”

About: Cats are one of my best friends. I’ve always had cats in my home my whole life. When I was 18 my orange tabby Mimi gave birth to 7 kittens on my bedroom floor and it was a magical (yet terrifying) thing to witness. For the next 3 months I watched those kittens get bigger and eventually rehoused each one to loving families. Mimi is still my buddy until this day. When it comes to cats or any animals , I’m not shy to step in and help any way I can. I am professional and careful when it comes to my boarding to ensure the safety of all pets in my care.
“Morgahn the "zoo keeper" is amazing. She is so caring to our 3 babies and 1 is very skittish and hides behind the dryer. She will sit back with him a few times, so he gets accustomed to her voice. He is a 15 pound black cat. I will always contact her when we leave town. Thanks so much Morgahn~~~”

About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity

About: Hi there! I’m a proud pet parent to my sweet Bulldog, Ruca, and "cow cat," Magic. I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years—from playful puppies and kittens to mellow seniors—and I love getting to know each pet’s personality. As a fellow pet parent, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet as if they were their own. I strive to provide that same level of care, attention, and affection. Every pet is unique, and I’ll take the time to learn what makes yours happiest. If your pet requires special care or accommodations, I’m happy to tailor my approach to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved.

I share my home with my dog, Ruca, and my cat, Magic. If your pet stays with us, I’m happy to provide a separate space or crate for your pet if you prefer.
“Sydney was great! She agreed the night before to come over to potty my babies. She sent pics and loved on them while I was at work.”

“Brianna has been great! She’s very responsive and communicates with us well. And she’s very good with our 9 month old German Shepherd, and quite forgiving since her puppy energy can make her a lot to handle.

About: As a college student with a deep love for animals, I’m excited to offer pet care services, including dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. Growing up with pets of my own, I’ve always been the go-to person in my neighborhood for watching over dogs and cats while their owners were away. From ensuring anxious pets stay calm to handling high-energy dogs who love long walks, I’ve experienced it all. Whether it's giving a playful pup the exercise they need or keeping a shy cat comfortable during visits, I pride myself on building trust with animals and ensuring they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. My flexible schedule allows me to be there for your pets, ensuring they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. I’m currently in college full time so around my class schedule I have plenty of time to take care of and play with your pups! I love giving them lots of attention and letting them get their zoomies out while playing with them. I can set up kennels, krates, etc. I love pets and understand their needs so I will take care of anything you may need!
About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!

About: I have had 2 golden retrievers in the last 15 years, currently a 3 year old and a previous dog that lived 10 year. I have taken care of old dogs and puppies and love all dogs! I am not working so I will be able to be at home whenever needed. I have a 8-5 job that is less than a mile from my house so I can run home for any reason. Almost never work on the weekends.

About: Hey y'all! I'm a Midwestern gal who has loved getting to know the pets of the deep south! I've been an animal lover my entire life. So, about 10 years ago, I started working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and it was the experience of a lifetime! It's easily the coolest job I've ever had. I've gotten to learn a lot about pet care. It's a special feeling to get to get to know and watch pups grow up. I worked under an animal behaviorist in DC for several months before ending up down here in the Bossier area! I’m looking forward to building another sweet community of pets🥰 At home I have an ancient pup named Bella! She is an 18 year old beagle who really just wants to hang out. Thankfully my schedule is very flexible to the needs of your pet! I have found that watching animals can be a really mutually beneficial activity. For example, watching someone’s pup gives me a good excuse to get out of the house and go on longer walks! I am always willing to locate nearby dog parks which can be fun spots for outings! Also happy to curl up on the couch and watch Netflix with your furball - whatever their energy is☺️ Additionally, I have ten years of professional experience as an animal caretaker.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was young. I grew up with goats, cats, dogs, bunnies, and many more fun critters. I find a lot of joy being around animals. When I was 9 I helped my family’s pet goat give birth and helped raise them until they were rehomed to different farms. That is just one of the many fun stories I have from growing up surrounded by a variety of animals. I’m pretty comfortable with all personalities of pets and am very accommodating to specific routines and lifestyles. I used to work at a pet hospital so, that educated me on how to care for injured or sick pets. As well as, how to handle different behaviors of pets to benefit their safety and day to day life. I believe that all pets deserve kind and loving care no matter the age. I’m currently a stay at home wife with plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available Monday-Saturday all day and Sundays after 12 PM, unless we make special accommodations for overnights or other accommodations. I live in a quiet neighborhood and have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for playing and exercise. I also have two dogs that love making new friends. For boarding at my house I like to let the dogs have plenty of outside time. Whether it’s in the backyard playing, going on a walk, or a trip to the dog park. I’m also up for quiet days with snuggles on the couch. I am happy to crate your dog if requested- one of my dogs are crated when they are home alone due to anxiety so I understand the necessity if needed. I also have indoor cameras to monitor my pets while I’m not home, so your pets will always have an eye on them even if I’m not physically there to ensure their safety. For overnight stays in your home, it is completely up to your discretion how you’d like me to care for your pets. If you have special instructions for your pet care I am open to almost anything, I don’t think any ask is too big or too small.
“Brooke and Bobby are amazing people and took such good care of our big baby girl. She’s a lot but they had so much patience with her and updated me daily during her stay! Would most definitely recommend them!!”
“Jamie, Is two words Simply AMAZING!!! my pup Meesha is a rescue and I worry about leaving her with sitters because I don’t want her to feel like she is being abandoned again. Jamie made sure that didn’t happen!!! From all the love she showed Meesha and also her kids play and showing love to Meesha. I wasn’t sure if Meesha was even going to want to come back home. We will definitely be rebooking with Jamie.”
“Zack is the best! We left our three babies with Zac, one being 15 years old with a medical condition. Zack put our fears to rest to the point we were able to celebrate our wedding without concerns of how our dogs were being treated and cared for. We extended a day and Zac was caring enough to let us know he would be away from the dogs all day and if we were okay with it. We will definitely use him again and recommend to anyone with Barksdale AFB access.”
“I will be rebooking. Andrea and her husband was fantastic! They communicated really well, I always got an update on my baby. My baby loved being there he was really happy! They made me feel at peace while I was away that my baby was in good hands!”
“If you are looking for the perfect pet sitter, she’s the one you need!! She is absolutely the best. I know my cats can be difficult to handle at times, but she was incredibly patient with them. I felt completely at ease leaving my cats in her care😊”

About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity
“Absolutely the best caregiver for our dogs. Super attentive, kind hearted and the dogs just love being there with Fernando. Big backyard and just the best... If you want someone who really loves your animals and takes the best care of them.... Fernando is the go to... he is a blessing. 5 stars.”
