“Lark is amazing!!! This was my first time using her and I can only say good things about her. You can tell she cares about your animal and puts you at ease leaving them with her! My pup loved her will be using her again:)”

“Christopher and Grace were so kind, caring for my dogs like their own. They sent regular reports and pictures and were fast to respond when I reached out. I have no doubt that my pups were well cared for and pampered while in their care, and I’m so grateful!”

“Can not say enough wonderful things about Tracy and her family! She made me and Benny feel comfortable from the very beginning. She was kind and loving to Benny! Updated me with pictures and even recommended a new toy that he loved at her house! There was no doubt in my mind that she is a dog person and took the very best care of my little fur baby! Thanks, Tracy! You are the best!”

“Sharon was amazing with our dog Sushi. We got frequent updates with pictures which put our mind at ease. When we picked up our dog, we could tell she was well taken care of and that she had a good time hanging out and playing in the yard with Sharon. Very friendly and communicative. We will absolutely book with her again in the future. Sushi was very happy with her and so were we.”


“Excellent communication, and I was loving the regular updates throughout the trip. Miranda and Joey were really friendly and flexible, and I’d definitely use them again!”

“I always feel like Jocelyn takes care of my dogs so well. She knows their quirks and really seems to treat them as her own. They get excited as we pull into her neighborhood because they like going there and know where we are. We always use her service if we will be out of town and trust that we will get tons of pictures of our babies!”

“McKenna is an absolutely fantastic sitter!! She was so communicative and kind about the entire process (especially as someone who is very nervous leaving her pets!) I will 100% book again, I felt very comfortable the entire time. I almost worry my dog had a better time with her than with me!! Hahaha”

“We left our Luna with Barbara for a week . Barbara sent us photos and updates every day . I appreciated that very much; Luna was well taken care of . I would highly recommend Barbara and she is very caring and very knowledgeable about our fur family . She also has her own 2 sweet dogs that were good company to Luna . Thank you Barbara .”

“We left our little dog here for a week while we went to Puerto Rico and it was an excellent experience. Our dog came home healthy and happy and the caregiver was easy to work with and made drop off and pick up easy. We will be using her again!”

“My two dogs had lots of fun staying with Erin! She and her family were so welcoming to them, and they came home happy and tired. Erin has a lot of expertise caring for dogs, and she has a calm and positive approach. She also takes amazing photos of my pups! I always know my animals are in good hands with Erin.”

“Christy did another amazing job watching Bruce while we were out of the country. She sent updates daily and you could tell Bruce was living his best life playing with all the dogs. She helped us out by extending his stay when we were severely delayed coming home. Christy is simply the best when it comes to caring for your dog when you have to leave them for an extended period.”

“Alicen was AMAZING with Dan!! Helped us out in a last minute Hail Mary on a Holiday weekend as well!! Could never recommend someone more! Danny played so well with her 2 pups and Alicen kept us very well updated with pictures!!”

“Second time having Chase watch Pony and again, he took care of our dog like he was his own. This time it was for 9 days. I got updates and pictures/videos everyday. Pony is very well loved and spoiled when he's there!”

“I am very happy with Laura!! I was so nervous to leave Percy with anyone outside of family, especially being that he has severe anxiety but Percy loved Laura and her family. I feel content that we found a permanent sitter for our fur baby. :)”

“Pam was perfect with my little old man, Dexter. He's 18 years old so he requires special attention and she was able to provide everything he needed, plus extra love! I will definitely be using Pam again.”

“We love leaving our baby with Layne, because we know he will have a great time! When we pick him up, I think he's more sad to leave her than happy to come home to us! :) It's such a great feeling to know that he's safe and comfortable while we are away. Thank God for Layne and her Family!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Appleby
An is such a sweet soul and was literally THE best person we could have had to watch our baby. She took such great care of our dog, took our dog out on excursions, kept us updated accordingly, and treated of our dog like her own. We felt very at ease having An watch our dog and were able to actually enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands. Couldn’t recommend An enough and will for sure ask her again to watch our dog for any and all future vacations! I swear she must be the dog sitter to use in NWA!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Appleby home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Appleby.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Appleby sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
