Dog Walking Wood Lake

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.

About: I've had dogs all of my adult life. I had 6 at one time and now have 2 Chihuahuas who I adore. I love all pets and want to be your pups best friend. I regularly pet sit for my 2 kids' dogs (Frenchie, Australian shepherd and golden doodle). I've also pet sat at a good friend's house for her 3 pups and brought my 2 also. I am retired so I have a lot of free time. I can walk or visit your pups regularly. My schedule is very flexible. I can help out at any time. I have a fenced yard and it is secure. My pups can't get out and they get along with all dogs. My pups are treated like the king and queen they are.

“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’ve taken care my dogs my who life. They were always played with, well feed, taken on walks, and groomed to perfection. I love taking care and spending time with animals. I’m available some weekends before 3pm and during the week days I am in school so I have more free time on my hands from working. I have had dogs and cats in my life. My last pet was a female Siamese Cat her name was Nala and I had dog named Bacchus years before her and some one stole them both. But, they stayed with shot updates, vet updates, toys, stocked on food, treats, clothes, love and much entertainment from me. I also believe outside time is very important, it gives them a sense of calmness.

“Ayanna was such a wonderful person to have walk our dogs while my mom was away. One of our dogs takes a little time to warm up to people but after a day when she realized Ayanna was there to help her, she gladly joined her sister in their daily walks. It was great knowing they were in good hands! Thanks you, Ayanna!”

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: Hi! I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me! I know every dog has their own personality and needs so I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them most comfortable. I’m available for dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, and sitting/general care. If your dog isn’t feeling well or needs a little extra attention I’m patient and attentive to their needs. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave to make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. Whether your dog needs exercise, company, or basic care while you’re away I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I work part-time and have a flexible schedule which allows me to plan time for your dog’s needs. Whether it’s dog walks, feeding, potty breaks, or check-ins throughout the day: I can be there! I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely! I make sure they are fed on schedule, get fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe for the pet. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.

“Sara was great, Alvin had a ton of fun.”

“Adam is always so great with our dogs! One of them can be a bit wary of new people but she ran straight up to him and they always have a great time and nap afterward!”

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs since my early childhood. I currently operate a small dog walking business servicing the new orleans area. I currently plan on Pet walking and sitting on weekends and after 4pm on weekdays. I work full time and get off at 4pm which is right on time for walks, food and enrichment activities. I care for pets by making sure that they are consistently stimulated, whether that be music, petting, walks, conversation, play or mental enrichment. Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)

“Eryn did great and was very accommodating to modify the walks as needed when something comes up. Very resourceful and helpful and I’m thankful for that.”

About: Been giving my love to animals since I was a little girl. Family have trusted me with providing what is necessary for our furry friends. I'm currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule, and have enough time watching over furry family. I can do frequent house visits if needed. I don't host animals in my home but and open to pet sit and house sit if needed. I can also do house visits if needed.

About: I’ve spent years helping friends and family by watching their pets when they travel. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they stay happy and comfortable in their routine while their owners are away. From walks and playtime to cuddles and companionship, I truly enjoy caring for animals I currently work from home so I have flexibility on caring for your fur babies! Whether it’s taking them for a walk or babysitting them at my house, I will make sure your animal is well taken care of! I have a fenced backyard and a dog & cat at home to play with your fur baby! I am also available to go to your house and take care of your animals there.

About: I grew up on a farm. I have a lifetime of experience taking care of different types of animals. I am looking forward to meeting your fur-family. My schedule is completely flexible. I have plenty of time to take good care of your beloved animal(s). I am available 7 days a week. Please note: **LATE PICKUP POLICY** There is a 30 minute grace period. After 30 mins past your original pickup time you will be charged $25 plus a $1 per minute for every minute thereafter until your dog/cat/horse/chicken/pig/hamster/kid is picked up. Thank you, Tayler W. I have a yard and a house that is spacious to care for your pet(s). I have two very friendly Pomeranians. I also have room to separate them from yours if need be. I can also crate train your pet(s) if you prefer.

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.

About: Hi! My name is Brion. (Bree-ahn) I’m a 32 year old female. I’ve always had some sort of pet in my life. I currently have a 1 y/o male golden doodle who is not spayed. I also have a 6 y/o daughter who absolutely adores animals. On weekends my daughter and I would love nothing more than a play buddy. We like taking walks outside and getting fresh air when needed. We live in a fenced home with a backyard, front yard, & a park. So there’s plenty of space for activities and energy. I also have a large cage of my own if needed.

About: I’ve been walking and caring for animals since I was a young child, so I bring a lot of hands-on experience and confidence in handling pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to keep them safe, happy, and well-exercised. I’m currently working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I’ve developed strong time management and organizational skills that translate well into pet walking and training. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be available during key times of the day for walks, check-ins, and consistent training sessions. Since I’m already accustomed to planning my day around routines, I’m able to reliably incorporate pet care into my schedule while maintaining a high level of attention and consistency. This flexibility also means I can accommodate client needs more easily and provide dependable, attentive care for their pets. I provide a safe and trustworthy environment by prioritizing consistency, attentiveness, and clear communication. Because I work from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I’m able to closely monitor their behavior, comfort, and safety at all times. My experience working with animals since childhood has taught me how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and respond appropriately. I also maintain a clean, organized space and follow any specific instructions from pet owners regarding routines, feeding, and training. Building trust is very important to me, so I make sure to communicate regularly with updates and ensure each pet is cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine attention.

About: I’ve spent over 15 years pet sitting regularly and in recent years, I’ve been a traveling pet/house sitter. I have thirty plus 5 star reviews from the Trusted Housesitters platform, as well as references which I’m happy to share upon request. I worked as a vet tech assistant and kennel technician at a Rio Del Mar Pet Hospital in Aptos, CA for 2 years. I was a stable care taker, at Little Paddocks Farm in Yorktown, VA for 7 years. I helped train dogs and horses, we also had pigs and cats that I cared for. I absolutely love plants too, so watering and maintenance is something I enjoy. I will happily take care of gardens and bird feeding as needed. My schedule is flexible, I base my schedule around pet and house sitting. I’m available for single day visits, as well as weekly and monthly agreements. I care deeply for animals, and truly enjoy comforting pets while the owners are away. I know it can be very stressful for pets and their owners when they’re apart. I look forward to helping your animal companions stay calm and stress free while you’re away!
