About: While I'm just beginning my pet-sitting journey, my love for animals is what inspired me to get started! ❤️ I understand that every cat and dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I'm committed to learning each pet's individual needs and following their owner's instructions carefully. Whether it's feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, or simply keeping your furry friend company, I'll approach every visit with patience, kindness, and care. I'm excited to build lasting relationships with pets and their families while creating happy, positive experiences along the way! I’m available Monday through Friday in the evenings after 5 pm and have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays! 💕 Whether your fur baby needs some extra love, playtime, feeding, or companionship while you're away, I’m happy to work with your schedule. I’ll always make sure your kitty feels safe, comfortable, and cared for! When caring for pets in your home, I'll respect your space and follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of attention, and playtime based on their personality and comfort level. For pets staying in my home, my goal is to provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. Since I have a cat of my own, I'll be mindful of each pet's temperament and make sure any introductions are handled slowly and safely, with separate spaces when needed.

My goal is to give you peace of mind. While you’re away, your furry family members will get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care.

Courtney & Colton are amazing! I was so nervous to leave my puppy behind but they made me feel at ease. They communicate constantly, send pictures and I could tell they were having a nice time away from home! Definitely recommend and will be booking again this summer!
Justin was great. I had a friend cancel at the last minute and Justin helped me out big time. I had never used Rover before but heard good things about them and am sure glad I did try it. Justin took great care of my 2 dogs. He kept me up to date on them amd always answered my messages in a timely manner. I would recommend Justin to anyone who is looking for someone to watch their dogs. Fantastic. Will definitely book with him again my best trip

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
100% of sitters in Arkoma can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Arkoma 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 Arkoma.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arkoma. On Rover:

You and your Arkoma 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 OK 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
