Dog Sitting in Westwego

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was almost old enough to walk. I majored in Biology at Loyola and also work with a local animal rescue! I’ve always had animals in the house, and have three cats. I help bathe, feed, and walk my parent’s dogs almost every day when I go visit them. During the summer, I take them to the dog park and they absolutely love it. I am a local teacher at an elementary school! I am available every single day, mostly afternoons and nights. During the school day is the only time I’m unavailable! I love playing with dogs and making sure they feel well loved. Crate training and potty training are specialties of mine! I love to go on long walks too.

About: I've had multiple dogs growing up. After moving into a house with cats, my dog now stays with my brother. I want to spend more time with dogs to balance out the cats! I'm currently working remotely, so I can make most times work unless I have a meeting. I typically know my schedule well in advance, so I can work in check-ins or walks into my schedule easily! Safety is always first on walks with secure leashes; I will be respectful in homes and of other property, and treats ready for positive experience

About: As a pet sitter and dog owner, I’m intentional about how I care for every pet because they are truly family. Along with my dog experience, I also spent two years cat sitting, providing check-ins, feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving comfort and attention. I have experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I focus on meeting each one where they are to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’ve owned three dogs and lived with several others, giving me hands-on experience with daily care routines. I’m comfortable feeding, refreshing water, administering medications (pills, ear cleaning, ointments), and providing both short and long walks, along with playtime tailored to your dog’s needs. In my last two years caring for senior dogs, I learned the importance of patience and adaptability—whether that meant slower walks, cleaning up accidents, or providing gentle muscle massages to keep them comfortable. I also have experience recognizing and responding to emergencies, such as reverse sneezing and muscle strains, and I act quickly to seek veterinary care when needed. You can count on me to follow detailed instructions closely and provide thoughtful, reliable care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule outside of my required classes. I am available on weekends, Wednesdays, and Fridays, as well as most mornings and evenings throughout the week. I provide care in my client’s home to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their routine. I communicate with owners beforehand to understand each pet’s needs and follow all instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, playtime, and clean-up. I adjust to each pet’s behavior and energy level to ensure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for while you’re away.

“It was nice to meet Ryan and I look forward to him walking/checking in on the dogs”

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.

“Eryn was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all our directions and kept us up to date the whole time. She was patient and loving with our crazy animals and we are so grateful to her. We will absolutely use her again!”

About: I’ve lived in a house hold that has always taken in the misfit animals - growing up, we always had at least rescue one dog and one other odd rescue fuzzy friend (usually rabbits). I know what it’s like to work with dogs that have bad pasts and am patient and confident enough to remain calm and friendly. If your dog needs a visit or two to warm up I am also comfortable working through that with you. I love pets of all personalities, shapes, and sizes! I worked at a shelter in high school and volunteered throughout my adult years, so I am not afraid of hard work or mess. I also have pet sat for friends and family throughout the years! Currently living in a pet-free situation for the first time so I have a lot of extra love to give your fuzzy friend. I am a graduate student so I have irregular hours during the weekdays. Monday/ Wednesday/ Friday I am not available 1pm - 5pm. Tuesdays/ Thursday I am not available 9 am - Noon. Weekends I am fully flexible. As of now, I cannot currently care for any furry friends in my current living situation. I hope to be able to make home visits and respect you and your pups space.

“Mimi did a great job looking after our 2 cats. She followed all instructions perfectly. This was our second time using her! Will definitely use her again!”

“Alex was very communicative through the whole process and treated Midnight like her very own. I got plenty of updates on him and she was not afraid to ask questions about anything. Midnight seemed happy and we'll taken care of by the time I got back, and he is pretty high maintenance. I would trust Alex to watch him again!”

Brooke T.

“She gave great updates and pictures of both my cat and dog. You could tell she really enjoyed being with them and they loved having her come and play. I will be recommending her to all my friends and use her again!”

About: I've been around dogs and puppies all my life so I'm used to being around them, caring for them, playing with them, and just allowing them to add to my life since I enjoy their company. *I'm also open to cats, just don't have much experience as of now :) I'm currently a college student who's looking to travel to different places, gain lovely connections, live through enjoyable experiences and explore the world through pet/house sitting. My weekdays are open most of the time since I'm often indoors and seeing cute dogs and puppies on the street makes me want to play with them. I would do daily pet routines based on the schedules they're accustomed to like feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and grooming. I'm even open to overnight pet sitting on weekends as well.

“Abby is amazing! She was quick to communicate, great about a little meet and greet before watching my pups. The boys love her and she followed all my instructions perfectly.”

About: Former Registered Nurse, forever animal lover! I truly enjoy taking care of animals and people. I have had dogs all my life, my mom even had 6 dachshunds at one time in our lives! She currently has three large Bernedoodles that I house sit and walk for her when she needs. I have two senior Labrador Retrievers that live with my dad and his Border collie, who I house sit, walk, and eternally throw a ball to when he needs. I also occasionally baby sit my sister’s havanese and brother’s dachshunds. So I guess you could say I have experience with dogs big and small and all ages. I currently teach motorcycle safety classes at NOLA Riding Academy on weekends so I’m available most weekdays. I currently teach motorcycle safety classes at NOLA Riding Academy on weekends so I am available most weekdays and some weekends. I live in Elmwood/River Ridge area. I have experience walking a 95lb chill bernedoodle, an excited 78lb bernedoodle, an incredibly energetic 35lb border collie, a 10lb curious dachshund, and a 6lb havanese that just wants to do her business and get back inside. After some treat bribing I can get my mom’s timid 36lb bernedoodle to go on a walk and once she’s out she loves it! I can throw the ball for hours to my dad’s never tired border collie and can get him back into his crate when it’s time. I pet my attention loving yellow lab until I collect a hairball the size of him.

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.
