“Marcy was very detailed and thoughtful in her care. She made my mother feel very comfortable leaving her pets in her capable hands. Excellent communication and extremely accommodating with changes to our trip. Highly recommend!”
“Allie went above and beyond during her drop in visits for our two cats. She gave us detailed descriptions of each visit and plenty of great photos. She even tidied up their litter areas and cleaned their wet food bowls after they were fed. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were out of town.”
“I felt so safe and secure on my trip knowing Marissa was back home taking care of my 2 cats. They absolutely loved her! Marissa is a good communicator, patient, responsible, trustworthy, does everything you need, and sends great Rover cards. I can’t wait to book with her again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Jessica is absolutely fantastic! She was able to watch my dog on short notice and took exceptional care of him!!! She was patient with me when I was slightly panicking because I was out of state and the person who was supposed to watch him cancelled. She made sure I didn’t have to worry about my dog and I knew he would be cared for properly. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have been in-house pet sitting, doing drop-in’s, and dog walking since I was 18. I have a lot of experience with older animals that require special medical care. I will go the extra mile to make sure you and your pet have a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience! I am currently working part time so I have flexible hours and am able to accommodate most morning and afternoon times! I also have off days during the week I’m free all day! In your home I will do a thorough walk through with you where you can give me all the specific info I’ll need to keep your pets safe! Any tricky doors, quirky habits of your pets, rules about outside time or walks, and any information you give me I will follow to a T to ensure that your pets are following normal routines and will be as safe as possible!
About: My experience comes from years of caring for my own dog "Griffey" and cat "Miss Kitty", along with pets belonging to friends and family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or a calm presence, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own and keep you updated so you can feel completely at ease. I joined Rover because I miss having my dog in my everyday life. He is currently staying with my parents back home in north-central Kansas. My dad’s health isn’t the best, and my dog brings him a great deal of comfort, so I know he is where he needs to be for now. I return home about once a month to visit them. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Best Shawn Phelps I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can often accommodate short-notice requests and easily work around your pet’s regular feeding, playtime, and care routine. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in familiar surroundings. I will follow each pet’s normal routine, carefully secure doors and gates, respect the client’s home, and provide regular updates and photos. I have a friendly cat at home who gets along well with dogs but prefers not to be around other cats. Because of that, I would care for cats in their own homes but may welcome dogs into mine after a meet-and-greet. I’m flexible and always willing to discuss the safest arrangement for each pet.
“Sherri was amazing and my cats loved her. I can tell that they miss her now! She came every day and was very consistent and stayed overnight with them. She followed all of my instructions, which I'm sure were not too easy to understand. We will definitely have her back again.”
About: I am a farm girl and I possess a genuine passion for animals. My experience includes supervising and house sitting, handling various types of pets, administering medication, etc. I am dedicated to ensuring the well-being and happiness of pets under my care. I currently work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available most times throughout the week. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to accommodate different schedules for walks, check-ins, or overnight house sitting. I have two cats and several fish so I understand how important it is to have a schedule set. I am very attentive and can stay over nights if needed. I have experience with small and large animals as well as exotic pets
“Marilyn did a great job communicating ahead of time and during her visits. She sent lots of pictures of our cats, their food being filled, and their water running. This gave us peace of mind while we were away! I’d definitely recommend her for anyone’s fur babies!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over eight years, including puppies, seniors, and special-needs pets. Whether it’s high-energy walks, medication administration, or just lots of belly rubs and companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on your pet’s comfort and happiness. I also have experience with basic training and understand how to adapt to different behavioral needs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my days around walks, feeding times, and quality play or cuddle sessions. I’m flexible and prioritize consistency, making sure each pet receives the attention, care, and routine they’re used to—whether it’s early morning walks or evening check-ins. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets on their normal schedule, and ensure they feel safe and secure. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and full of love and attention. Communication is key—I provide regular updates so you always feel connected and reassured.
“Ally did a great job taking care of our 3 cats over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative and made sure each cat was accounted for while we were away. We had no concerns. Would highly recommend her!”
About: I worked at a dog kennel and cattery for a couple of years and loved every minute of it! I worked with dogs and cats of all breeds, temperaments, and ages! I am a remote graphic designer who would love nothing more than to fill my time taking care of your animals. My week is so open and available! I am very flexible and can work with any schedule. My home isn’t available for pets, but I’d love to work with your schedule and their schedule! It’s easy for animals to get stressed out when they’re not in their environment. I’d would love making them feel comfortable and accommodate to your animals schedule!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Bella Vista
Beth is friendly and really knows cat personalities! Super helpful in my case with a young energetic large male and a tiny elderly female that do not do well together. She did not even blink an eye when I explained what needed to be done while I was gone. I have had trust issues with pet sitters in the past, but I think my trust has been regained!
Rebekah was so easy to work with. She did a fabulous job taking care iof our two kitties, Stuart and Cheech. I appreciated the time she spent with them, giving them their treats and playing with them with their rope and taking care of any mishaps that might have happened (hairballs). She showed great respect for our home and pets by asking if her son could come along, which was no problem, but I appreciated she asked first. We came home to happy relaxed cats. Rebekah was reliable, trustworthy and did a great job communicating . Would use Rebekah again and would recommend her to others.
Marcy has WONDERFUL communication skills. She’s very thorough with all the details and makes sure your pet is comfortable. I appreciated all the extra details, like taking in packages and offering to take care of plants. She’s a fantastic hire and we’d be happy to have her watch Rosie again ❤️
Candy was great for checking in on our cat while we were out of town. She kept him company and shared brief descriptions for how he was doing and photos each time which I really appreciated. The house was safely secured and all of Jabba’s food, water and litter were in good condition. Thank you!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Bella Vista is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , 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 .

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
