“Mike was great with our Chase. He always kept us updated on Chase and sent photos very frequently. We could tell Chase loved being with Mike and his dog Britain. And a plus is that Mike lives only a block away from us. We were hesitant at first because of our own anxiety and it being our first time using the app but Mike was able to meet with us before Chase's stay and reassured us that Chase was in good hands. Highly recommend Mike! Thank you Mike and Britain for taking care of our boy!”
““Michael’s the Best! he’s been taking care of my 2 dogs off & on for months. he’s always prompt, easy to reach, reliable & trustworthy..that means a lot to me, knowing that my dogs are in good hands”..”
“I highly recommend Iryna for dog sitting! She took good care of my dog for 5 nights and kept me updated me the whole time. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Cheryn was amazing! You could immediately tell she was really caring and passionate about dogs. Huey had a great time and we loved the great communication and pictures. Highly recommend Cheryn!”
“Serena and AJ were amazing with Cookie!! It was very relieving & comforting to know she was in such great hands while I was out of the country for a bit. Serena was always super quick to respond, flexible, and I loved getting all the photo and video updates! 10/10 would recommend & I would definitely book again with her!”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“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 :)”
“Regina is the best sitter I’ve ever had! She’s reliable, thoughtful, and truly caring. My dog can be skittish and difficult, but Regina was able to win her trust—and that means everything to me.”
“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! 😊”
“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!”
“Elena was fantastic and sent regular updates about Beignet. Only two other dogs in the home (1 pet, 1 other Rover pup), and everyone got along well. Will definitely book with Elena again in the future!”
“Aja was fantastic with Doodlebug. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves and understands animals. She was reliable, communicative, and treated Doodlebug like family. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total piece of mind while we were away. Doodlebug came home happy and clearly had a great time. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook with Aja, she is an asset to Rover.”
“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.”
“Jon took amazing care for Panfila. She came back home with a wagging tail and was very happy to stay with him. Jon is very attentive and really caters to each dog individually. Look forward to leaving her with him in the future.”
“I was away for two weeks, which is the longest my dog, Max, and I have ever been apart. Leaving him with Roxanne and her family was the best decision ever. He was definitely well cared for, and the next time I travel, I hope they will take Max again. I highly recommend Roxanne. I know how important it is to be able to trust your dog sitter and I absolutely trust Roxanne and her family.”
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.
“Thank you so much for taking care of my boy. They did a great job, and he seemed to have a good time, which I appreciate. I will be reaching out for my next trip or day event. Thank you!”
“I love Ms. Etta. She’s so good with Bronx and he comes home tired and well taken care of! We’ve found a new Auntie for my boy and I couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be using her again”
“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.”

“I would definitely book with Hanna again next time I go out of town. She was reliable and communicative. I came home and my kitty was well fed, looked happy, and the litter box had been scooped as instructed.”
“Communicative and super loving to our cat while we were gone for two weeks. Any time there was an issue (of which there were just a few that were our fault), Deana came and helped resolve immediately. Highly recommend if you need someone to look after your furry ones!”
“Caitlin went above and beyond to make sure our elderly house cat, Chani, was very well cared for while we were out of town. Chani is a very affectionate cat and needs lots of human contact. Caitlin showered her with attention and affection. Except for her regular humans' presence, Chani had everything she usually does on a daily basis including pets, backrubs, brushes, and kisses, even a walk outside with her harness. Being an elderly kitty, she has to take a blood pressure pill every day or her blood pressure will spike and she'll start to lose her vision, so we're very thankful that Caitlin is experienced with administering medication to pets. Chani took to Caitlin right away and immediately felt at ease with her. We know this because of the many pictures and videos Caitlin sent us showing Chani being at ease and affectionate. When our flight home was delayed for several hours Caitlin graciously agreed to an emergency extra visit to make sure Chani took her medicine and had her dinner. That was really great. She is a great pet sitter and we highly recommend her.”
“Simon was a phenomenal caretaker for my guy Cornelius. Checked in and out with every visit, communicated amazingly throughout the entire time. He definitely has a knack for taking great doggo pics. Was also able to accommodate a last minute booking and extension of service due to travel delays. Highly recommend booking with him if you want someone caring about your dogs much as you do while you’re not there!”
“Alaina was great, she did everything I asked and did a few extra things for me as well! We were in regular communication the whole time i was gone and it gave me great comfort to know my kitty was getting love and attention!!”
“Jamie took wonderful care of Karma. She communicated with me when she visited and sent me pictures of Karma living the life. She alerted me when I had a beeping smoke detector. (it turned out to the be the carbon monoxide detector; battery) and when my door lock errored. I will definitely use her again!”
“Ellen was terrific. Highly responsive, followed our instruction to a tee, and made sure our cat Loki feel loved and played with in our week long absence despite the chaos of getting to our house during Mardi Gras. We would absolutely hire Ellen again!”
“Robin takes such good care of our 16 yr old cat. Sends pictures and updates every day! We have used her for the past year and are very happy customers!”
“Sarah was a great sitter, really communicative and attentive to my two kitties. She sent detailed updates and pictures with each visit so I knew my guys were well taken care of. Excellent service, would use again!”
“Amazing and kind and fun! Highly recommend! Doc’s write-ups and check ins are so thoughtful and enjoyable to read. We look forward to hearing about our Sprinkle’s adventures with Doc!”
“Super pleased with Dani and her efforts to stay in touch with updates and photos. Even with a storm she still kept me updated with schedule changes. She also took care of my plants while I was away. Dani is super sweet and I have nothing but great things to say. Would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy help at home with your pets (or plants!) I will be reconnecting with her in the future for any care I may need in the future with Pep!”
“E was fantastic. I got pictures and updates daily and I know my Honey Bunny was very well taken care of. My house was exactly how I left it and I will be hiring E again for my next trip!”
“Thanks so much Sarah for taking care of my cat. He loves the extra attention and I love seeing all the cute and silly pictures of him that you send me while I’m out of town”
About: Hi! We’re Britt & James — lifelong dog lovers, experienced pet sitters, and proud pup parents to our sweet girl Jessie 🐾 Between the two of us, we’ve cared for countless dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. James works from home full-time, so pups are rarely left alone and always have company throughout the day. Britt works a flexible hybrid schedule, allowing plenty of time for walks, playtime, enrichment, and snuggles. We each bring something a little different to the table: Britt has a soft spot for senior dogs and experience with pups who need extra patience and TLC, while James is great at keeping energetic dogs active, engaged, and entertained. Together, we make a calm, attentive team that truly loves getting to know each dog’s unique personality and needs. We live in a quiet New Orleans neighborhood with a fully enclosed backyard featuring double-secured fencing — perfect for safe play, sunbathing, zoomies, or just sniffing around. Our home is cozy, dog-friendly, and set up to comfortably accommodate different routines. Whether your dog is playful, shy, cuddly, independent, young, senior, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like family here. We’d love to set up a meet-and-greet and see if we’re a good fit for your pup 😊 Daily Schedule: James works from home full-time, so dogs are rarely left alone during the day. Britt works a hybrid schedule, which allows flexibility for walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Time Alone: Dogs are typically not left alone for more than a few hours at a time. Walks & Potty Breaks: Regular walks and backyard potty breaks are built into our daily routine. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Overnights: We’re home overnight and keep a calm, consistent evening routine. We maintain a calm, thoughtfully managed home environment with our pup, Jessie 🐾 She’s a gentle, easygoing dog who has been doing great with others, and we’re very intentional about compatibility when accepting bookings. We only overlap stays when it feels like a great fit for everyone involved, and we’re always happy to do slow introductions or keep dogs fully separate if needed. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. We live in a cozy, converted New Orleans shotgun-style house that’s easy to section off depending on your pup’s needs — whether they prefer their own space or like to stay close by. We also have a double-secured fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Since we both work from home (James full-time, Britt hybrid), your pup will rarely be left alone and will always have a calm, animal-loving presence around. Britt is especially experienced with senior dogs and special routines, while James is patient and gentle with shy or nervous pups, particularly those who may need extra time warming up to men. We’re happy to accommodate crate training, medication, and specific routines to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for while they’re with us.
“Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!”
About: I’ve had cats in my life since I was a tiny little girl. I’ve been taking care of cats of neighbors, friends, and family for as long as I can remember! Cats are funny creatures. Their personalities, likes/dislikes, etc…. It all matters and it matter to me too! At first, I like to give space and patience when it comes to feeding and caring for a new cat/ cats, but once everyone feels comfortable, I’m down to play with hair ties, paper bag tunnels, whatever! Lol

“Michael was so amazing with my dog! This was my first time using Rover and had a great experience all because of Michael! He takes care of the dog as if it was his family! Also takes amazing photos and sends them with updates! Super fast at replying as well as flexible! I would totally use Michael again if /when I go back to New Orleans!”
“This is my dog’s 3rd visit with Etta. She is the best. She goes above and beyond. I broke one of the handles off my dog’s bag and she sewed it on without me even asking or knowing she could sew. She even reinforced the other strap so that wouldn’t break off. Thank you!!!”
“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.”
“She’s great especially on the short notice I gave her! My dog had so much fun and she sent lots of pictures! I would definetly recommend her if you need someone to watch your dogs!”
“Very happy! Will use Ashley again for my next trip to New Orleans! She updated me with pictures and made me feel more comfortable leaving Charlie for the day! Thank you so much!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage, from puppies to seniors, with a variety of breeds and temperaments. Right now, I have a small breed senior who is still fairly active. Please use the following link for $20 off your first booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/jonatb76705 I am typically at home, have a flexible schedule, and am available for drop-offs on short notice. Just let me know how I can assist! Your dog will have free range of the living areas, with regular supervised visits to the enclosed backyard, and walked twice daily or as often as requested.
“It can be hard to find sitters willing to help with challenging dogs, and I have a very sweet pup who, unfortunately, has some separation anxiety that means she can’t be left home alone at this point. Julia agreed to watch her for some daycare while my husband and I attended a family birthday party, and she also was great about setting up a Meet and Greet about a week beforehand so that Sable could be introduced to Julia and her own pups. Julia sent pictures and updates while we were away, and I appreciated her honesty when I asked how Sable did. It seems as though Sable was only mildly embarrassing and didn’t put Julia through too much hassle, so I’m very grateful to have someone trustworthy and kind to leave my pup with! Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I only watch one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.
“Great experience!! Vader had a blast and I got alot of pictures through the process! First experience with rover and I think I will definitely use it again!”
“To say we were satisfied with the care Alyssa gave our little Max would be an understatement. We were camping in New Orleans and had events happening that would take us away from our motorhome for over 9 hours for a few days and did not think it wise to leave our small dog alone for so long so we needed to think of something. So for the first time we turned to the ROVER app. As this would be the first time we left our boy with a stranger we were very concerned but We had a meet and greet ahead of the actual dog sitting and it went so well …. we felt at ease right away with Alyssa and her own dog. Our Max and Alyssa’s Oliver hit it off right away … she is a wonderful person full of love, caring and is extremely pleasant. The second day we went to drop Max off he actually pulled me to her door and sat there waiting for her to open the door and when she did open the door he ran in as if he was home already. This experience was so wonderful. We are certain a big part of that has to do with how nice a person Alyssa is. Sending pictures throughout the days was an added bonus for us! We would highly recommend her to anyone who needs dog sitting services!”
“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.”
“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!”
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.
About: I grew up in an animal loving home and have had them as pets since birth. Since I can remember, I have been the one friends and family have called on to care for pets, young and old, healthy and injured. I have fostered and owned dogs with dog aggression issues and have a special place in my heart for these often misunderstood souls. I am comfortable walking with them and have the physicality to maintain control and safety. As an avid walker, one of the best joys in life is walking side by side with a canine companion. I believe in taking care of animals like children, with love warmth, attention, cuddles, positive reinforcement and boundaries. I have had the pleasure to raise 3 dogs from puppyhood until their elder life cycle and am very comfortable with aging doggos and those with special needs. I also work part time in a grooming shop, so I can get your baby squeaky clean and beautiful for you. I am currently working part-time in a grooming shop a couple days a week and I work from remotely from home part-time. Saying that, my schedule is very open to spend time with animals. I live within walking distance of City Park and walk almost daily. I have open yard that is not fenced in but I have temporary fencing that I can use for dogs who require more outside time than lengthy walks. I have several crates that I can setup for dogs that need them or if you don't want to transport your own. I follow the owners lead if dogs are allowed on furniture, but if so, they are welcome to cuddle on the couch. I prefer that dogs sleep in their own bed, one of my loaner beds or a crate. I will honor the owners feeding schedule as to make the transition easy for everyone. I do have 2 cats in the home who have grown up around dogs their whole life and are generally ambivalent to them. I send daily photo updates and generally treat your baby as my own while in my care.
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: 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.

Due to my work schedule at the hospital not allowing me to pick him up, you have become such a blessing. Thank you thank you thank you and I cannot recommend you enough!”
“Dani was great with my two cats and one dog. She was incredibly communicative and responsive. All my girls were happy and well fed when I returned from my trip. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat/dog sitter”

About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.
About: I have hands on experience with dog walking, house sitting, and cat sitting, and I’ve also had dogs of my own, giving me a strong understanding of daily care, routines, and pet behavior. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail oriented, making sure your pet stays on their routine and feels comfortable at home. I provide updates, follow instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety and well being at all times. I’m currently a nursing student working part time, but I have a flexible schedule and make time for pet care. With summer break coming up, I’ll have significantly more availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate more daytime care during the summer. I’m reliable with scheduling and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of proper introductions, routines, and supervision. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.
“Robin is caring and detail oriented. The dogs love her and so do we. And she always sends us the best pictures of their walks. We have used Robin to House sit as well as occasional walks when we are out of town for the day. I would happily recommend Robin to take care of your dogs!”
“Miranda (Andi) was great with our “kids.” Friendly and attentive to their unique differences, she and they connected immediately. Add to this the pics she sent to put our minds at ease, we highly recommend Andi.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over a decade, including raising a German shepherd and co-parenting an Italian greyhound. As a current medical student on my research year, I don’t have the flexibility to own a pet full-time—but my love for animals hasn’t changed. I’m the “cool uncle” to many of my friends’ pets and truly enjoy giving them love, attention, and care as if they were my own. I’d be honored to bring that same energy and compassion to your pet’s day. My schedule is flexible if planned ahead of time during week, and I decide my time between research lab annd studying. On the weekends, I’m always free and more flexible. I treat every pet’s space like a sacred one, clean, calm, and full of positive energy. Whether in your home or mine, safety is my top priority. I follow all feeding and walking routines closely, keep environments hazard-free, and always aim to earn your pet’s trust with patience and kindness. You can count on me to keep your pet happy, loved, and secure while you’re away.
“Victoria did a great job of walking Aki and keeping her from feeling restless during the day. It was a huge help to us and we would definitely book with her again. Aki took right to her from their very first meeting!”
“Lindsay is incredible. Our pup loved her as do I. I trust her as does my pup. She was mindful of a meniscus issue that my girl has by allowing her to dictate a much shorter walk, and instead Lindsay stayed with her for the remainder of the scheduled time to love and play with her inside. She thoughtfully filled her water bowl before leaving, and sent me a the most wonderful pictures of their time together. I will be scheduling a weekly standing with her.”
“Can't thank Michelle enough for helping out with our golden retriever. Michelle started coming over 2 weeks ago three days a week to walk our girl Phoebe and she has been incredible. Very flexible to our dogs needs, sends detailed updates on how the visit/walk went, and is very responsive to communication. Highly recommend her to anyone and hope to continue her services for a long time. Thanks Michelle!”

Britt is especially experienced with senior dogs and special routines, while James is patient and gentle with shy or nervous pups, particularly those who may need extra time warming up to men. We’re happy to accommodate crate training, medication, and specific routines to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for while they’re with us.
About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, focusing on daily walks and overnight care. For the past 5 years, I have raised my own gentle pup, Poopoo, who is well-trained and keeps me experienced in consistent walking, feeding, and providing comfort at night. Before that, I spent 2 years in Korea helping my family raise another dog, giving me a strong background in handling different breeds and personalities. I also have 2 cats at home who are very friendly with other pets! Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me not only to walk their dogs but also to care for them overnight when they travel. I make sure each dog feels safe and loved—whether it’s long walks for active dogs, gentle care for seniors, or overnight stays where they get the comfort of a steady routine. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to dog walks and overnight care. I usually work part-time, so I’m available for morning and evening walks on weekdays, as well as extended overnight stays when you need to travel. On weekends, I can offer even more flexible availability for boarding and longer walks, making sure your pup gets the exercise, love, and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At home, I live in a pet-friendly environment with a calm, well-trained dog who is used to other pets. I make sure walks are always safe—using secure leashes and keeping a close eye on surroundings. For overnight care, I provide a quiet and comfortable space where your pup can feel at ease, and I always follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, routines, and any special needs.

“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“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 :)”
“Regina is the best sitter I’ve ever had! She’s reliable, thoughtful, and truly caring. My dog can be skittish and difficult, but Regina was able to win her trust—and that means everything to me.”
“Jon took amazing care for Panfila. She came back home with a wagging tail and was very happy to stay with him. Jon is very attentive and really caters to each dog individually. Look forward to leaving her with him in the future.”
“I was away for two weeks, which is the longest my dog, Max, and I have ever been apart. Leaving him with Roxanne and her family was the best decision ever. He was definitely well cared for, and the next time I travel, I hope they will take Max again. I highly recommend Roxanne. I know how important it is to be able to trust your dog sitter and I absolutely trust Roxanne and her family.”
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.

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 grew up in an animal loving home and have had them as pets since birth. Since I can remember, I have been the one friends and family have called on to care for pets, young and old, healthy and injured. I have fostered and owned dogs with dog aggression issues and have a special place in my heart for these often misunderstood souls. I am comfortable walking with them and have the physicality to maintain control and safety. As an avid walker, one of the best joys in life is walking side by side with a canine companion. I believe in taking care of animals like children, with love warmth, attention, cuddles, positive reinforcement and boundaries. I have had the pleasure to raise 3 dogs from puppyhood until their elder life cycle and am very comfortable with aging doggos and those with special needs. I also work part time in a grooming shop, so I can get your baby squeaky clean and beautiful for you. I am currently working part-time in a grooming shop a couple days a week and I work from remotely from home part-time. Saying that, my schedule is very open to spend time with animals. I live within walking distance of City Park and walk almost daily. I have open yard that is not fenced in but I have temporary fencing that I can use for dogs who require more outside time than lengthy walks. I have several crates that I can setup for dogs that need them or if you don't want to transport your own. I follow the owners lead if dogs are allowed on furniture, but if so, they are welcome to cuddle on the couch. I prefer that dogs sleep in their own bed, one of my loaner beds or a crate. I will honor the owners feeding schedule as to make the transition easy for everyone. I do have 2 cats in the home who have grown up around dogs their whole life and are generally ambivalent to them. I send daily photo updates and generally treat your baby as my own while in my care.
“Julia is amazing, she had everything ready when we arrived and was an excellent host for our doggie. She kept us up to date on Moo's days and made her feel at home. I highly recommend her. Will be going back to her when we come back.”
