​​​​Liz Serda Schneider,  Owner
Liz was an Insurance Adjuster in both Lafayette and Metairie, for over 25 years. During all of that time, she worked in rescue, fostering, adoption, fund raising and all forms of pet care. She was the spokesperson for Lafayette Animal Aid for ten years, always on the morning news promoting adoption events. ​In 2016, Nonie's provided industrial sized fans and much needed supplies for Ascension Parish and Livingston Parish shelters, after the flood, and was recognized by the ASPCA. In 2019, she organized a Town Meeting, with local experts, to address the coyote concern in Old Metairie. She is always involved in all-things-pets, but Liz's specialty is in animal behavior and resolving behavior issues. Aside from running the business, Liz is active in all pet sitting and dog walking visits, handles the Meet & Greets and does overnight visits as well.

​Annikia H., Overnight Pet Sitter
​Annikia's love for and experience with pets has always impressed me. She is very much into details about your pet. She also spends that extra amount of time with our fur clients that might need a little extra love. Annikia works very hard as a wedding consultant for a local B&B.  She is our back-up overnight sitter and helps us with any pet sitting when Nonie's is quite busy. She is very valuable to our team.

Why Choose A Pet Sitter?
​By: Ken Tudor, DVM, WebMD

Pet sitting is generally of two types: Pet sitters that come to the house at specified times to feed, allow bodily elimination, and exercise the pet are the most common. Other pet sitters will not only care for the pets but can stay at the pet owner’s house so pets have constant companions, or at least night companions. Pets can also show signs of stress when their owners are away but it tends to be less severe when they are in the familiar surroundings of their own homes. In 30 years I have yet to treat stress induced bloody colitis in a pet that has been cared for by a sitter. Having sitters also has the advantage of protecting the pet owner’s home. Newspaper and mail collection by the pet sitters eliminate "away from home" signals to possible “bad guys.” Pet sitters create near normal household activity that also discourages potential robberies like bringing in newspapers and the mail, they can care for indoor and outdoor plants and alternating indoor lights. Pet sitters are more likely to recognize potential health problems sooner and can arrange for the pets to be seen by a veterinarian. My experience is that pets with pet sitters tend to be less subject to separation stress. 
So, Which is Better - Boarding or a Pet Sitter?
To me the obvious choice is pet sitting. It is as close to a normal environment for the pets as possible and is also great insurance against crime. It is my personal choice for my pets."
