About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my whole life and have loved working with Rover doing boarding, walking, and sitting. My fiancé and I live in a split-level home with a fenced backyard—plenty of space for playtime and lounging. We don’t have pets right now or kids, so your pup gets all the love and attention! One of us is always home (my fiancé works remotely), and we’re comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. We live in a quiet, walk-friendly neighborhood, and we love staying active with our furry guests. Your dog will be treated like family—with lots of snuggles, playtime, and regular updates for you. Can’t wait to meet your pup! I'm a grad student who's home most of the time, and my fiancé works remotely, so your pet will always have company. I provide daily walks, plenty of attention, and bathroom breaks as often as needed. Caring for animals is a top priority in our routine, and your pet will be treated like family! I believe all living things deserve kindness and respect, and I’ll go above and beyond to make sure every pet in my care feels happy and comfortable. I’m committed to following all food, medication, and routine needs exactly as requested to keep your pet feeling safe and at home—whether they're staying with me or I’m coming to you.
About: I have always been passionate about animals and grew up being a "Dog Girl". I would opt to study dog breeds before bed instead of bed time stories and quiz my parents on walks and car rides. I've cared for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Yorkies, and French Bulldogs all the way up to Giant Schnauzers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and Labradoodles! Once I moved out on my own and moved into a studio apartment I realized that I may not have room physically for a dog but I would be able to help out cats who are waiting for their furever homes. I have been fostering cats for 5 years and have been able to help cats in both Chicago and New Orleans acclimate to home life as they await their adoption. I have "Foster Failed" and do have my own cat, Dolly, who is my constant companion. I often care for my friends animals in the area and look forward to meeting your fury family member! I do have blocks of time through out the day where I can check in and spend time with your fur baby. I have a pretty flexible schedule but it does fluctuate. I would be able to work with your animal's schedule but it will depend sometimes week to week or month to month. I have a lot of free time in early morning, around lunch and late evenings every day with most days having free afternoons and/or evenings. I will not be hosting animals in my home at this time but I do have space for animals as I often foster shelter cats in my home.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and my current dog is the center of my life. I’m hoping to pursue a career in dog training and I love spending time with dogs and doing fun activities with them. I’m currently working part time with a pretty flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to spend looking after and playing with your dogs! I have a fenced yard and a very well behaved dog that gets along well with other dogs. I am happy to crate for the dogs safety and I will keep a close eye on them when I am home.
“Deana was wonderful with Oggi. Had her for a week to help out while I worked & he loved her. Professional, on time, followed all instructions & attentive noticing when he got tired or the heat was a bit much for him. If you want someone who will care for your fur baby I recommend her”

About: As a retiree, I have adequate time to devote to 1 to 1 care for well-behaved, small to medium dogs and cats too. I prefer to give one on one care for your special pet in my cozy, smoke-free, fenced home. I am a nurse by profession, so administering most medications or therapies is not a problem. With adequate notice, I prefer to meet your pet beforehand in a complimentary visit/stay, to secure any anxieties. Complete comfort is my goal, so you can enjoy your travels knowing your pet is secure with me. I am available seven (7) days per week and am rarely gone more than 2-3 hours, so potty breaks or medication administration are always available for your pet. I have safely boarded loving pets of family and neighbors without incident. I have a fenced yard for their safety and leash walk in my uptown neighborhood, as permitted by weather and animal disposition.
“I can’t recommend Cody enough. She is a pet charmer. My 2 dogs and cat warmed to her quickly, she is an excellent communicator, and has a gentle presence. My one dog was nervous and hid before the first walk. Cody spent 30 min gently coaxing her out. After the first walk, all 3 of my animals were comfortable and happy. She sat with them after every walk for extra minutes and shared great pics with me. I will always check her availability first in the future”

About: I have had my own golden retriever for the past 5 years and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also pet sat and helped care for other dogs for friends and family. I’m very attentive, patient, and make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and individual needs, and I truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I’m currently a student, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care. I’m available for walks or drop-ins at most times, just ask! I am happy to accommodate different schedules. In my home, my dog is supervised, kept in clean spaces, and given plenty of attention. I carefully follow leash guidelines and any special care needs.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or following special routines, I go the extra mile so both pets and owners can relax. Pet care is built into my day—I start and end every day checking in on them. Walks, playtime, and feeding are part of my regular routine, not something I ‘fit in.’ I make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection every single day, just like I would with my own pet. In my home, pets get a safe, cozy space with plenty of love, play, and supervision. I follow their normal feeding and exercise schedule to keep them comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep things clean, and stick to any routines or instructions they provide—whether that’s walks, playtime, medications, or cuddle time. My goal is to make them feel secure and happy, wherever they are
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats in the past and would love to do it again ! I have experience with dog walking, and cat and dog sitting I can do most days of the week, I am usually free all week unless something comes up! I am very flexible so it shouldn’t be a problem. I care for pets by playing with them, feeding them the right amount, bringing them for walks (if possible), and other possible entertainment for them ! I will make sure they are safe and well entertained as well as cared for.
“This is the second week we are using Courtney as our pup daily walker. She has been amazing, super responsible, responsive and made sure our pup gets the best care while in her hands. We highly recommend Courtney!”

About: I have a very handsome 3-legged pomchi named Clyde and also had 3 cats and a dog growing up - I’ve always been such a huge animal person. I absolutely love all animals and would do anything for them. I know just how much we love our pets and that they are truly members of our families, so I will always take the absolute best care of your furry friends! Along with my own and my family’s pets, I’ve taken care of my neighbors’ animals in high school and college as well as the pets of my family members. I also have experience caring for pets who have emotional trauma from their past or from being in the shelter system. I am currently a medical student at Tulane, but I do most of my work and classes from home. My schedule is generally super flexible, so it is easy for me to work around what your pet needs — I will always prioritize taking care of your pets! I am extremely gentle, kind, and patient with animals. I will play with your animals, take them on walks/outside, and give them treats and lots of love!!
West Riverside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Margarida is so wonderful! She is always willing to go the extra step to help us with caring for Bennie. As a busy mom with three kids and changing schedules, I am so grateful for Margarida’s flexibility and grace when we need to change plans. Bennie loves her and she is a huge help for our family!

River and Jax are now buddies and I appreciate the patience and care he showed Jax. Jax tends to have his own ideas of who and when to bark but River's kindness and training is helping Jax a great deal. I'm grateful I decided to sign on. When I return from a trip I will be scheduling River on a regular basis and I trust that we'll work together with Jax! Thank you, River, for your exceptional care!!!
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!

First time having Cody as my pet sitter/walker and I'm so pleased with the level of attentive care and service! Cody was recommended to me by a friend with multiple pets as well for my 4 day trip out of town, and came to my house twice a day to care for my dogs during a very busy jazz festive time. Despite my dogs being very nervous and chaotic in the beginning, Cody was patient and gentle, not to mention very communicative the entire time, and my babies finally calmed down and loved their daily visits and walks. 10/10, 5 stars and will be booking with Cody in the future! Thank you!
