“Lark is amazing! It’s pretty cool to see her interact with each dog at her home. She’s so mellow. My pup definitely enjoyed his time with Lark, her daughter and and the rest of the other dogs. Will definitely be booking Lark again ?”
“Christopher was awesome! It was a last minute notice and he was able to accommodate. Kira is definitely an energetic dog and he did great with handling her energy!”
“Tracy was great, took great care of Bracken, and sent updates throughout the day! She was nice enough to accept our request last minute. We will definitely bring Bracken back!”
“Becca was super knowledgeable and extremely conscientious about what was appropriate for my puppy, Ripley. We had Becca watch her for two days and although our 5.5 month old had never been left with anyone else, and is generally stand-offish, she ran to Becca full of wiggles and smiles on day two!! We were only visiting, so the care was extra appreciated and made it possible for us to do a few activities that we would have otherwise had to miss. It was a wonderful experience and a win-win for our whole pack!”
About: Since a young age, I’ve always been surrounded by dogs and have experience caring for puppies, adults, and seniors. I worked as a veterinary technician for one month (I had a change of heart in career paths!), so I’m confident in administering insulin shots and giving medications. (I also had a senior dog with diabetes that I administered shots to). I’ve walked dogs and dog-sat for several people before joining this app. With two dogs of my own, I promise to treat your fur baby with the same love and attention they deserve! I’m currently a student at the University of Arkansas - so besides a few hours of school every day, I am free to spend time with your pet! For pets in my clients home, I am available to stay as long as needed and will make sure there is plenty of water, food, playtime, and potty breaks provided!

“Ava was amazing and took great care of my dog. Communication was easy, and I could tell my pup was comfortable and well cared for. If you are looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable Rover sitter, I highly recommend her. We will definitely be back!”
About: I had my first dog when I was 8 and raised her from a puppy for 5 years. Also, I’ve been pet/dog (e.g. dogs, cat, reptiles, etc.) and house sitting for several years. I graduated from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, was born and raised in Northwest Arkansas, and currently volunteer with the Fayetteville animal shelter. I’m currently working full-time M-F from 8am-5pm with a few breaks. More than willing to do whatever takes to ensure you and your pet are most comfortable. We have several parks nearby within a quaint neighborhood. I have a 2BR apartment, no pets, and tons of amenities available (dog park, walking trails, etc.).
About: Hi, I’m Natalie! Animals have been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. When I was 22, I rescued a sweet English Setter who was severely underweight and battling both heartworms and ringworm. With patience, love, and consistent care, I nursed him back to full health. He’ll be 10 years old this December, and he’s truly my best friend. That experience taught me how to be attentive, patient, and dependable with pets in all conditions—and it deepened my passion for caring for animals. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or needs a little extra TLC, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I’m generally available mornings, evenings, and most weekends. This allows me to provide walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting depending on your needs. Typical Week: • Monday–Friday: Early mornings (before 9 AM) and evenings (after 5 PM). • Weekends: Open availability, including full days and overnight stays. • Overnights: Available most nights with advance notice. Flexibility: If you need coverage outside of these times, please reach out—I try my best to adjust for each family’s schedule. I am available in a certain radius. I have a full time job as well located in Rogers, Ar. I am willing to travel into work up to 40 mins. Thank you! • Over 9 years of personal experience caring for my English Setter • Comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities • Experienced in feeding, walking, playtime, and following special care routines • Familiar with medication administration and supporting pets with health needs • House sitting experience—keeping both pets and homes safe and cared for • Daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care in your home • Consistent updates and photos so you always feel connected • Respectful, reliable, and attentive care for your pets and your home
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attentiveness, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I work with. I don’t just “watch” pets — I learn their routines, quirks, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive experience with small and senior dogs, including my own 12-year-old mini poodle, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling, medication routines, mobility support, and calming anxious pups. I understand that older dogs and shy pets need a slower pace, consistency, and lots of reassurance — and that’s exactly what I provide. I’m also reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Whether your dog is playful, timid, energetic, or just wants to nap next to someone kind, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel right at home. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. 🐾 I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, medication, and potty breaks on a consistent routine. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care, I plan my time so your pet's needs always come first. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so I can provide calm, consistent care. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to keep everything secure. In my home, pets are treated like family in a safe, cozy, and supervised environment with plenty of structure, play, rest, and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel confident and connected while you're away.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Appleby commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
