Dog Walking Viavant-Venetian Isles

About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.

“Sarah is great and very glad to have found her here on Rover. She loves Rocco & Cheekie and takes such good care of them, and they love her! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since I was a kid, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. One thing that sets me apart is my experience with senior and younger pets. I cared for my own dog in her later years when she developed back leg problems. I helped her move around the house, made sure she was comfortable, and gave her lots of love and patience every day. I additionally took care of my other dog in her early months waking up multiple times nightly to calm her down. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a senior pet needing extra care, I’m confident in handling all kinds of needs. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, so I’m able to care for pets whenever needed. Pet care easily fits my routine, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pets specific needs and schedule.your pets comfort and routine will always come first. I believe pets are most comfortable and relaxed in their own home, which is why I only offer care in the clients space. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect in return. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

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.

“Chloe is dedicated to walking my pup who loves her. She braves all weather conditions and schedule changes with a good attitude. My dog Sophie gets the zoomies after every walk.”

About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

About: Hello! I am a New-Orleans-raised local and a dog trainer. I grew up with a houseful of pets—dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish…We literally called our home the zoo. I live with two adorable pups (my roommate’s) and many, many plants. I am looking forward to bonding with your fur babies, caring for your home, and exploring your neighborhood! I have over 15 years of experience in general pet care and 6 years in canine training. I spent a recent summer pet and housesitting full-time and continue to do so while traveling throughout the year. It has been a blast and incredibly rewarding. I am experienced and comfortable with the smallest of puppies all the way up to giant breed dogs. I enjoy patient training that joyfully engages your canine and am also skilled in leash training, a vital foundation to an adjusted pup. If you hire me, my walks will be structured and help your dog grow in communication and impulse-control. I, of course, would also love to care for your cats, small animals, and more non-traditional pets. I can disperse medication and handle a diverse range of circumstances. I work a regular job but am flexible outside around that. Monday-Thursday this is an 8-hour shift, and Friday this is a 5-hour shift. When sitting, this means I am there for your pet right before and right after a shift and flexible during most other hours and on weekends. Let’s connect and discuss your needs. I will be as attentive and engaged as you and your fur-babies need. I am experienced in reading your pet’s body language to know if they need extra engagement or other physical needs. I am happy to take your pets in my car to play at the park, join me at the cafe, or to drop off somewhere. Let me know what your pets need and we can work together to make it happen.

“Caitlin was absolutely amazing with my dog. He has severe anxiety and she was so patient with him. Eventually he was able to warm up to her and it’s very rare that happens. If I could give 10 stars I would. In the future I will only be using her when I need someone to take care of him”

I hope to utilize my abilities as a dog walker and cat sitter. My availability is flexible. Skills: I have experience with caring for sick animals, providing play time, and walking pets. On top of this, I have a drivers license. When it comes to prior qualifications, I have experience as a pet sitter and carer. Booking An Appointment: Wanting to book me as a sitter or walker? Message me and tell me about what you are looking for in a sitter and what kind of pet you have. I can't wait to hear from you Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I work late nights (4 PM – 12 AM), which means I have plenty of time during the day to dedicate to walks, playtime, and quality care. Whether it’s morning exercise, midday check-ins, or afternoon cuddle sessions, I can give pets the attention they need while their owners are busy. My flexible schedule allows me to maintain consistent routines, ensuring pets feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—ensuring they get their usual meals, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep things clean while providing plenty of attention and companionship to their pet. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel at ease. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: I have been around a variety of animals including reptiles my entire life. I worked as a veterinary technician for a year. I am trained to react quickly and have a decent amount of medical training. I am also experienced with handling senior animals including those with special needs. I have handled animals that are paralyzed, post operative, and medication dependent. I have no other job at the moment. This gives me constant availability. I have my own transportation as well as the ability to create my own schedule. I do constantly supervise my animals. I am easily able to redirect an animal before any problems can arise. I have fast reflexes from my time as a veterinary technician.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 11. Neighbors, strangers, friends and family have relied on me to walk, play with, feed and bathe their pets. I'm very loving nurturing and attentive to they're special needs. I'm young energetic and I'm very dedicated to working with dogs it's always been a dream of mine to be a dog trainer so the more time I get to spend with them and learn their behavior is the better for me. I'm currently not working a "real job" so I'm open in availability right now but when I do start working I'll be working evenings or night shift nothing overnight though so plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm very routine oriented and OCD your pets will be on a schedule. I'm affectionate and caring and have adhd so I get bored fast and love to play. I have 2 dogs but they don't live here right now so no worries on my pets being present there are children occasionally in the home but not everyday or all day so just depends on that I don't have a fenced yard but I'm high energy and love walks so your dog will get plenty outdoor time. My apartments do not allow me to have pets here which is why mine are not here but they do allow me to have animals here as long as it pertains to work so no worries there either I know some people freak out when they hear apartment.

About: With my background in veterinary medicine, I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior companion, I offer attentive, loving care rooted in experience and empathy. As a vet tech, caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. With patience and communication, I will do all I can to provide reliable care before or after work and on weekends. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure pets feel secure, comfortable, and loved while providing attentive supervision and care. I can follow routines, provide careful supervision, and offer loving, attentive care.

About: Hey there- I’m Diana and I have always loved animals from the bottom of my heart. I am a Rover sitter and use Rover for sitters for my own pets when I’m out of town, so I personally understand the significance of trusting a sitter with your animals. It’s never easy to leave the fur babies at home, and so I do everything I can to make them comfortable and loved till you’re reunited. I’m good at juggling responsibilities and remembering small details, which makes my care attentive to the unique needs and personality of each pet. I choose to do pet sitting and walking because I can’t have as many of my own pets as my heart desires. I would be happy to care for your furry one and spend genuine time ensuring they are having the best time in my presence! Thank you for trusting me with your sweet family and I know we will have a great time. I work from home right now doing program management for local nonprofits, so I can be flexible with caring for your pets with some notice. I don’t mind early morning or late night care. We are newer to New Orleans and enjoy getting to know different neighborhoods. I take notes of all the details you share about your home and care for your animals to make sure I have a thorough understanding of their needs and usual routines, and anything to be cautious about.

Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)

About: I love caring for cats and keeping them company. I have house/cat sitted in New York, San Juan, Santo Domingo, Rome, Copenhagen and Los Angeles. I am a freelance musician and I currently work part time doing deliveries mostly at night so my schedule is flexible to accommodate any needs. Most of my free time is during the day and then after 10pm. I take time to get to know your pets and discuss if they have special needs. I like to meet them when the owner is present, so they feel safe and we can talk about the interactions.
