“Emily is such a great cat sitter! She not only took great care of our cat, but went above and beyond by helpings us with an impromptu visit to make sure our cat would be okay when our flight was delayed. She stands out from previous sitters, as it’s clear that she genuinely likes cats, is responsible, and detail oriented. Emily will be my go-to the next time our cat needs care!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with my cat. She communicated very well and kept me updated during her visits. When she had trouble finding my cat one day (because he was hiding way better that I thought he could), she took extra time to check the house thoroughly for him and made sure he had everything he needed before she left. Highly recommend to anyone needing a sitter in the area!”
“Cassi did an excellent job looking after my 3 cats in my home. She followed the instructions and sent photos and updates each time. She was communicative before and during. This was my first time using Rover and I am very happy it went so well thanks to Cassi!”
“Sydney is a wonderful sitter! I highly recommend her for watching your fur babies. She sent me pictures and updates of my cat while I was gone. She scheduled a meet and greet before sitting, so she was able to get to know my cat and where all of his things were.”
“Bonnie is the best cat sitter I’ve had. She genuinely cares for your pets as if they are her own and goes above and beyond for them. I cannot thank her enough for making me feel less anxious when I have to leave my fur babies behind. Do not hesitate to book her, she’s the best!”
About: I have years of experience raising puppies, and now I’m enjoying every stage of life with my dogs I also have two cats who’ve been part of my family for over 10 years! I currently work full time from home so I am able to be home with the pets all day long. I can give multiple potty breaks and can take the babies out for play during the day! I care for your fur babies like they’re my own – whether they like it or not. I love all dogs, and I’m happy to give medications if needed, along with more attention than they probably signed up for.
“Hannah did a great job. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. She posted photos of our cats and sent them to us each day. She even brought the mail in. We will use her again!”
“Jurnee was very reliable and did an excellent job of taking care of our kitty. We really appreciated the daily updates, and pet photos that we received. We will contact Jurnee the next time we need a dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Jurnee!”
About: I grew up with dogs of my own, I take care of my friends’ dogs when they’re go on vacation, and I recently had a dog of my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages and have had great experience with all of them. I am about to start back to school and have a lot of availability to help with dog-walking and pet sitting when needed. Including weekdays and weekends. I can abide by any feeding and exercise schedule for your pet. I know my cat loves attention, so I can provide lots of pets for your dog or cat as well. 😄
About: I’m compassionate about humans and animals, have a very giving heart, why Emmy Dog is a rescue and has been my whole world for years now!:) I’m recently semi retired from corporate America so have ample flexible time to work with and care for your fur babies on your particular schedule!:) Emmy Dog is more well behaved than some toddlers from the consistent care she’s received from me over the last few years she’s been with me!:)
About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and I truly believe that animals are one of life’s greatest gifts. I currently have 2 cats of my own, help care for my parent’s dog, and I grew up with a dog in the home. My current schedule is highly flexible, and I am available most days and times. I can commit to a consistent scheduled time or accommodate varied scheduling needs. I will treat your fur baby as if they were mine - cultivating an atmosphere of patience, kindness, protection, fun, and care are a priority for me when interacting with other’s beloved animals.
“I hired Cole because my dog prefers males and gets along best with males. Cole was on time, and took very good care of my dogs, Chestnut and Daisy, and locked up behind him. Cole met with me beforehand for free to meet Chestnut and my other puppy, Daisy and discuss responsibilities. I could tell Cole has experienced with puppies. Cole was very polite and attentive and went above and beyond for Chestnut and Daisy. Chestnut and Daisy absolutely love him and they get excited to see him again every time! I recommend Cole and will hire him again. Thanks Cole!”
About: I have up to, if not more, than 1 year of pet experience. I was raised on a farm from the age of 13. I also have experience with dogs and cats alone as I use to be a dog bather and have my own cat. I plan to become a groomer fulltime as well as pet sitter. I am currently unemployed outside of Rover, I am looking to make Rover fulltime once I an get enough clients to keep me up financially. I am also looking to go to school to become a pet groomer. Currently,y schedule is open 24/7. No pet is ever too much! I live in a house with family currently, as I just moved back to the Fort Smith area. As of current, I am unable to do pet watching at my house so I offer house sitting + walk in visits, as well as dog walkin.
About: I've been cat-sitting since high school, watching friends' and neighbors' pets while they traveled. I am a cat owner myself and have personal, in-home experience with the furriest of overlords. I also have practice with the smallest of kittens as a volunteer with the Fort Smith Animal Haven. No cat too big, no beans too small... I can't wait to meet them all!! I'm currently between jobs, so your sit requests are my top priority! First come, first booked, of course, but I will do my best to make room for everyone in my schedule! At this point in time, I will not be offering in-home services as my space is too small and my own pets are too many. Safety is number one, and most cats are calmer (therefore safer) in their own space.
“Ann did an amazing job with my kitty Tommy. She made sure I got lots of pictures of him and played with him lots while she was there and I would definitely use her again!”
