About: I’ve cared for and helped train over 1,200 dogs, both personally and through professional dog training work here in Baton Rouge.

Let’s Meet! Send me a message anytime to arrange a meet & greet — I’m happy to make sure you and your pets feel comfortable before booking. I wake up around 6:30-8:00 AM most days and get right to work caring for the pets. Everyone is let out in backyard, or leashed up for a walk around the block. Pets are diligently cared for. Usually this consists of at least 3 walks per day, a visit to the park, and plenty of backyard time. I spend all day with the animals, leaving only for a personal errand or visit to the store. Each animal is analyzed carefully & fit into proper schedules according to their personality, levels of energy, and socialization. I provide a secure, fenced-in yard and individual kennels for each pet’s comfort and safety. Dogs start their day around 6:30–8:00 AM with a 10 to 30-minute walk, followed by supervised backyard playtime and snacks. Kennels are used only for rest and feeding—pets spend the majority of their day active, social, and engaged. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, whether that includes frequent park trips, light obedience training, short backyard outings or bathing. My goal is to ensure every animal feels safe, loved, and enriched in a clean, well-maintained environment.

“My boy had such a good day with Courtney!! He attached to her and made him a new bestie today. Very thankful she was able to accommodate me in my last minute needs! Would definitely trust her with my baby again in the future!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of patience, love, and attention I give to every dog. I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and I also have a dog of my own (Millie:)) and my Shih Tzu baby Rico I’ve helped cared for back home. Sl caring for pets is a natural part of my everyday life. Being a dog owner myself helps me understand routines, emotions, and the little things that make pets feel safe and loved. I may not have formal training, but I make up for it with genuine care, reliability, clear communication, and a calm, comforting presence. I treat every pet like family and follow their routine closely so they feel secure while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m a full-time college student, but I’m currently on break until January 12th, which means I have completely open availability right now to care for your dog. Since I have my own dog and grew up around pets, daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and cuddle time are already part of my everyday life. During my break, I’m able to be fully flexible and attentive, making sure your dog gets consistent care, love, and routine. In my home, pets get treated just like family. I have a 1 year old Pit Bull Terrier named Millie, and she’s the sweetest, most cuddly girl ever. She’s very friendly with dogs of all sizes and loves having a buddy around. Millie is on a regular eating and bathroom schedule, she’s fully potty trained , crate trained and we stay active with walks throughout the day and visits to the dog park in my apartment community. Any dog that stays with us will get the same gentle routine . Lots of love, playtime, structure, and comfort. Even though Millie is the only dog I’ve personally cared for long-term with the exception of my childhood dogs , taking care of her daily needs has made me very attentive, patient, and confident with dogs. Your pup will feel right at home here.

“I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with Jena as a dog caregiver through the Rover app. Jena took care of my six-month-old puppy, Luna, for her first dog daycare adventure, and I couldn’t be more pleased. Jena’s care for Luna was outstanding – her attention to Luna’s needs and her nurturing approach made Luna’s first experience truly special. The regular updates and communication from Jena provided me with peace of mind throughout the day. Jena’s professionalism, combined with her genuine love for animals, made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Luna not only received excellent care but also seemed genuinely happy in Jena’s company. I wholeheartedly recommend Jena to the Rover community. She is a fantastic caregiver, and I am grateful for the positive impact she had on Luna’s daycare experience.”

About: Dog lover of 27 years. I'm a stay-at-home mother to 3 beautiful babies and 2 fur babies. I am a total dog enthusiast. I love all things dog and am always happy to meet and love up on new fur pups. SPOILER ALERT: All fur babies will be spoiled rotten and living their best life! I am flexible with my availability and make it easy for my clients to book with me. I always give the best possible experience that I can. I love to provide fur parents with a way to keep their fur babies healthy, active and happy while they are away. I have a fenced-in backyard and a fenced-in patio (for the pups that love to be outside and bask in the sun). My home has doggie gates in every room to keep your fur babies safe and playmates in order. I treat every dog as my own and love to see them happy and well cared for.

About: My husband and I have always had pets growing up. We knew we wanted this for our children as well. Our daughter and son love pets and would want a farm if we allowed it! I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings. Before I leave for work all pets are fed and taken outside. Upon returning home I let the pets out again for a bit longer to play in our fenced in yard. Mornings begin with food and water and a morning treat. Bella lets us know when she needs to go out by going to the patio door. During the day she is very chill and usually lays on the sofa waiting on the kids to return from school. When everyone is home from work and school Bella is fed again and everyone gets some snuggles in with her.

“I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care you provide to Ace. The dedication and genuine affection you show to him is truly commendable.

Thank you for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for Ace.”

About: I’ve been actively involved in animal rescue since 2012, volunteering, fostering, and transporting animal with CAA/EBR shelter. I currently volunteer with Barking Wishes, a senior dog sanctuary in Central, where I spend time caring for and advocating for older dogs. I’m the proud pet parent of three rescue pets - two dogs (a 16 year old Lab mix and a 9 year old Beagle mix and a 9 year old Tortie cat. I’ve had both dogs and cats my entire life, giving me extensive experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. Now that I’m retired, I have a flexible, open schedule seven days a week, including most holidays. I’m happy to work closely with each client to meet their pet’s unique needs. I carefully follow all care instructions and provide regular updates, including at least one photo per day (or more if requested), so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I’m recently retired so my schedule is open 7 days a week and most holidays. I’m willing to work with clients in order to care for their pet. I follow all instructions given by the owner. Depending on the client, I send at least 1 picture a day and give updates as requested.

About: My family and I have always had multiple dogs raised from puppies to full grown dogs that I helped to care for. This includes walking, bathing, feeding, playing fetch, trimming nails and taking them to the vet. I have also taken care of our farm animals daily needs. I work part time and my day to day schedule is very flexible. I am open to same day sitting jobs if needed. I am available to take dog to the vet as well. I have one friendly dog that loves furry company. I can accommodate needs of sitting location, depending on client’s preference. I have toys, crates, treats and dog beds to ensure comfort and needs are met.

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind. I have a family dog which is a Yorkshire terrier. I’ve also taken care of pit bulls and bigger dogs. Friends and family have also relied on me to walk, feed and love their pets. I am currently working part time so I have a lot of extra time on my hands! All my services that I will provide will be done with care and love. According to what you dog wants and/ or needs I will move accordingly. Any guidelines and/or rules you give me, I will follow them with caution.

“We love Lindley and her family. Our dog has been going for almost 2 years. She has loved every minute of it. Lindley and her family treat molly as their own. Highly recommend!”

About: We've had 4 family dogs that I've raised from puppies. All were happy, healthy pups! Now I have two wonderful dogs here in Louisiana that love my schedule, having a house of their own, and the large fenced-in yard. We frequent the Burbank dog park and PetSuites, always loving new friends. I also grew up with 2 cats and have experience cat-sitting cats with a variety of personalities. I have experience giving cats medicine My goal here is to offer the same services that I'd want for my dogs. That means working closely with you to understand their routine and training regime, giving them lots of love and snugs, and sending you photos and videos throughout the day. If they're in my home, I still try to stick as close to their routine as possible, we unveil new toys every day, offer puzzles and shredding enrichment, I put my dogs' charming personalities to work, and I make sure your dog gets the individualized care and attention they need. My schedule is currently extra flexible as I work from home! I can easily host dogs throughout the day and overnight while guaranteeing my time away from the house won't exceed 3 hours. My dogs roam the house and yard when I am home. Depending on their energy level, the weather, or time of day, I either crate them or leave them in the yard to play when I leave for a few hours. It is important that your dog can be crated or, if preferred, left alone in the yard. This will be necessary in the case of emergencies, over-stimulation, or if your dog needs a dedicated security spot. If I'm housesitting or doing drop-ins, I do my best to keep the pet's routine as close to normal as possible.

“Robin was wonderful! So responsive and communicative. I have never used a dog sitter before but I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with Robin in her home. She sent photo updates frequently and sent my puppy home with some goodies. We loved Robin!”

“Jennifer was great! She was very informative and gave me updates all throughout his stay with her. He came back to me exhausted from all the fun he had. Thank you so much!”

Selena C.

“This was our pups’ first time away from us and Jennifer was so great with them! We have a longer boarding stay coming up and wanted to see how they would do beforehand. She was so patient with my anxious boy and helped them both settle in in their own time. They were running around and playing by the end of the stay! She was also really communicative and kept us updated often with lots of photos. I’m incredibly picky about who watches my dogs, but after today, I have no reservations about leaving them in Jennifer’s care. They’ll be seeing her again soon!”
