“Upon the first conversation and meeting, she made us feel comfortable and we knew our fur baby would be safe and well cared for. Being out of the country for 3 weeks, we needed no worries and Saige delivered! When we picked up Mali, she looked happy and loved. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”

“Daisy had a great time staying with Brittany, Max and their family. It’s obvious they love dogs and know how to welcome new pets to their home. Loved getting pics everyday too. Much thanks!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Blue Heeler received! When I picked her up after two nights, she was calm, content, and completely at ease — no anxiety at all, which says everything about the environment she was kept in. The dog area was spacious and looked brand new, giving her plenty of room to feel comfortable. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Our Remi had the best time with Sylveena and her family. We received so many pictures, updates and notes throughout the days we were gone, it was so appreciated. She even kept a mindful watch over her time outside due to the intense heat we’re experiencing. It’s obvious that Sylveena loves animals and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Nicole was wonderful! She provided excellent communication throughout our trip and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was well cared for, and having fun. In fact, when he came home, he cried because he missed his new friends and the environment he had grown so attached to. We couldn’t ask for a better indication of how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Highly recommend!”

Cat caregivers near you - Lake Lafayette
About: I got my first cat at 12 and she later had kittens. Have taken care of multiple cats in 15 years, both rescues and strays, as well as fostering a kitten. Haven't cat sat but once, but I have dog sat and watching over other animals. I grew up in a household with different pets, from cats and dogs to farm animals and wildlife.

About: I've worked in animal rescue for many years and fostered both cats and dogs for over 15. So even the spicy ones I adore and they seem to connect with me as well. I am comfortable giving meds, doing brushing/nail trims for those that will cooperate, and giving them lots of love and attention! For work, I set my schedule for the most part, so I am very flexible and can come by in the daytime and or evenings. Very adaptable and willing to work out a schedule that works for you!

About: Hello my name is Lauren. I have over twenty years experience in taking care of cats. I have had numerous cats over the years and have four cats currently. I have worked in a number of vet clinics as a doctor's assistant and kennel technician as well as working in pet resorts, taking care of kitties that are boarding and sick. Cats are one of my favorite animals. I love them so much.
About: I’ve been around cats for many years and have experience caring for them through every stage of life, from young kittens to senior cats. I currently have an adult cat and a kitten, Sunnie, and I’m familiar with kitten care, feeding schedules, nail trims, litter box maintenance, playtime, and helping cats feel comfortable in their environment. I’ve also cared for cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to the little details. In addition to caring for my own cats, I have taken care of many friends kitties while they’re away. I truly love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and always strive to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every cat is different and I always respect boundaries.
About: Shhhhh don't tell the doggos, but I've always had a soft spot for the felines! I often feel like cats get ignored or dismissed in the pet industry, and that upsets me greatly! I've never met a kitty I didn't insta-ADORE, so if you're a cat-person and you've been having trouble finding a cat-person to watch your kitties, I am definitely your gal! I've had cats of my own since our apartment would allow pets, and we currently have 3 at our rural household. I know every cat has their own personality, and every cat deserves to be approached and treated according to that personality. Cats are not aloof... they are discerning!!
About: Seven years ago, I welcomed my first cat into my life, and since then, my appreciation for these amazing creatures has only deepened. Currently, I share my home with two wonderful feline companions who bring endless joy and enrichment to my days. William, the elder of the two, came into my life during the COVID-19 pandemic and prefers a stable, unchanging environment. He dislikes disruptions like new cats or unexpected visitors. On the other paw, Sir Walter Mouselot, my younger boy, is more sociable and open to making new friends, although his grumpy older brother often puts a damper on his efforts. Because of my cats' unique personalities and needs, I've discovered a passion for caring for cats in their own homes. Whether it's providing company, playtime, or simply ensuring their comfort, I tailor my care to meet their individual requirements. My experience has taught me patience, understanding, and a deep respect for the unique bond between humans and felines. I couldn't imagine my life without these furry companions, and I look forward to continuing to enrich their lives as they enrich mine.
“Gabrielle went above and beyond to make sure that my three cats were happy and comfortable while I was gone. I will definitely call on her again to care for my furry family.”
“Draven was fantastic with our Goldendoodle during her drop-in visits. Her communication was on point, and she even noticed that we had accidentally locked our cat in the bedroom. Thankfully, she let him out and made sure everything was okay. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our sweet boy. Highly recommend Draven to anyone needing drop-in care for their pets!”
“Daphne is a wonderful person and she took such great care of my cats! Daphne sent daily reports and pictures so I knew exactly how my babies were doing. I would hire Daphne again in a heartbeat A+.”

He was helpful and patient throughout the whole process, from the meet and greet through the first daycare session. He sent me photos and updates throughout the day to let me know she was doing well.

About: I have a love for all animals and I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I’ve also had fish and hamsters. I’m open to learning more. I’m interested in pet care full-time or part-time.

They are 7 and up, all the way to 14. The older cats do not require medicine but do not have bladder control. I have one dog that I take for walks and let out in my backyard.
“Ashley is great! Our dog, Arlo, is a 75lb, 8 month old puppy and while he is the goofiest, most loving guy...he can also be a pain in the butt sometimes. Ashley handled Arlo (and our home) with great care. She is reliable and has great communication. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”
“Kathleen was great in taking care of our two somewhat needy pups. She took them for a nice long walk and was very quick and frequent in communication. I will come back to Kathleen for future walks!”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule.

Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

About: My name is Neha, I’m a recent pharmacy graduate who is looking to find some amazing, cute pets to sit! I don’t have any pets, so I am eager to take every opportunity that I can to look after some cute fur babies! I am very kind, responsible, understanding, and will work with you! Although I do not have any pets, my desire is to have my own pet in a few years after I am more settled down! Taking care of your pets would give me the opportunity to experience what having a pet is like and all the responsibilities that come along with it.

I will also continue to ask questions and provide updates regarding the pets to owners.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals (some were rescues and some came from the farm) and now share my home with two cats, so I know that every pet has their own personality. Over the years I’ve provided pet sitting for friends, family, and the military community, offering drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight care. I also volunteered as a foster for dogs and cats, including high-energy puppies and even a senior hospice dog. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs—including administering medications. With my nursing background, I bring patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, while my experience as a military spouse makes me adaptable and dependable. Most of all, I want pet parents to feel secure knowing their animals are safe, loved, and cared for while they’re away. I am currently a stay at home wife, supporting my husband in his military service. And that gives me free time to spend with our loving furr family members and provide the same care to other pets. My schedule is very flexible to help other families out. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome throughout the house, and depending on the owner’s preference, they may join us on the couch or bed. We have a fenced yard, and I provide potty breaks every 2–3 hours (or more if needed), with daily walks in the cooler morning and evening hours. New pets are introduced to my own cats slowly and safely, using baby gates and separate spaces if necessary. Anxious pets are given a quiet room of their own, puppies enjoy extra playtime, and seniors receive the gentle attention they deserve. I ask owners to share their pet’s daily routine and favorite items like beds, blankets, or toys, so they feel right at home. Every day, I send photos and videos to keep owners connected and reassured that their pets are safe, loved, and comfortable
About: I’ve been around dogs for the past 6 years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, friendly, and always do my best to make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. I understand what dogs need, whether it’s playtime, a good walk, or just some quiet company. Every pup is different, and I make sure to treat each one with the attention and love they deserve. Taking care of animals is just part of my everyday life. I’ve got a handful of dogs at home, and they’re all very different, some full of energy, some more laid-back. My day usually starts and ends with walks, feeding, and playtime, and in between I’m checking in on how everyone’s doing. I’m used to balancing different routines and personalities, so giving each pet what they need just comes naturally. My older dog needs a little extra help, so I take time to help with potty breaks and sometimes hand-feed when needed. I make sure he’s comfortable and not rushed. My younger dogs are more active, so we go on walks, play outside, and spend time burning off that energy. I try to keep things balanced—making sure everyone gets the attention, care, and patience they need. Each of my dogs is different, and I’ve learned to adjust to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

“Nicole is hands-down the best dog sitter on Rover! She took amazing care of Freddy and Barney — they got to play with her dogs Gracie and Jac and had an absolute blast.
