“Jessica‘s walked my dog several times now. She always shows up exactly what time she says she will be there and does a great job with my dog. I’ll be using her more in the future.”
“Kamarin brought me incredible Peace of Mind. She was great with my three dogs who all have different needs and provided wonderful updates while I was traveling so I always knew how the dogs were doing.”
“Emmalee has taken the time to get to know our dog and he has taken to her very quickly and he is a very sensitive soul so that speaks volumes! Really happy and relaxed knowing she is caring for him, would definitely recommend.”
About: I grew up feeding both my mastiff mix Lilly and cat Kitty and walking Lilly daily. In college, I took care of a husky-mix, walking and feeding him daily. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am available for walks and feedings and can come check on your pet any time. I have experience with crate-training and know and will always strive to respect your personal house rules. I understand each and every pet parent has their own special relationship with their pets and I want to honor that as best as I can.
About: From fish to birds, cats to dogs - animals have long been a part of my life. I’ve cared for many types of animals, all at various stages of their life. For me, caring for animals is understanding their personalities and tailoring their care to them. I currently work remotely/at home, making me potentially available during the week for visits, walks, or a watchful eye. Weekends may also be available, on a situational basis. My home has open areas for play or lounging, a fenced in back court area, and walk-able areas around town for fresh air. Within the clients home, I’m open to specific care rules and want to provide a consistent level of care the pet is used to.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 7 years-old, and my parents told me our family dog was my responsibility. I have had six dogs of my own over the years, including one foster dog that I had for several years. I have dog sat for many of my friends and neighbors over the years, as everyone knows how much I love dogs! I currently work from home in New Orleans and spend all day with my loveable Golden Retriever, Louie! He gets along very well with other dogs and is happy to host them in his house and backyard. We would love to care for your best canine friend as well! I currently work fulltime from home so I am able to be home nearly all of the day with your dog(s). I will be at home on the computer or on the phone so your dogs will be with me almost all times of the day. I know what it's like to leave your dog babies with other people when you travel so I try to give them as much attention as I can. I'll also keep you well updated while you're gone as well.
“Jora and Darcy are besties! She’s extremely knowledgeable and did better with her than I’ve ever experienced with a walker, Darcy and I can’t wait to see her again!”
“Brittany is simply awesome! She sent very detailed updates after each walk with my dogs, and did a great job of making sure that she had all of the necessary information to have safe, quality time with them.”
“Avery is very sweet and attentive to Goldie. She can over early in the first walk to sit and slow Goldie to get comfortable with her. Loved all the photos and feedback about my dog.”
About: I grew up around all sorts of different dogs, and I love to play with them. Whether it's a walk, a brushing, or just want me to hang out with them, I'm the girl for you! I will say that I am quite small myself so if your dog is 70+ lbs and/or strong then you may be better finding a different sitter 😅 I am not very strong haha I'm currently between jobs so this allows me to be free basically whenever you need me to be! Plus, this allows me to better create a schedule around your needs :) I will do whatever is needed of me. If you need me for house sitting, I have my own activities to keep me occupied, so no worries about me being nosy :)
“Elizabeth is amazing with sunny, our Pomeranian. She gets him up and out of bed for his morning walk, and he can be grumpy to get up in the mornings. He likes her and doesn't bark as much as when other people come through the door. She's attentive to detail and so helpful. I fractured my ankle and she's helped sunny get in the morning walks he needs. Thank you so much!”

Katharine S.
“Beginning with her first dog at age 6, Katie has been an avid dog lover. She was known as the girl who walked her dog everyday in our neighborhood. She helped train all her family dogs including the beagle they have now. All of these dogs were rescues so required more patience, understanding, and love than others. Katie fostered a senior dog while in college. She helped him adapt to being with people so that he was able to be adopted when he likely would not have found a home. She is an organized person who will attend to all details needed to care for your dogs. She will also play and have fun with them!”
