About: I have been pet sitting for friends since college, when I come by to feed and walk pets while friends were away. I love animals and the opportunity to hang out with a new furry friend! I work full time Monday - Friday, so if you need anyone to come by and check in mornings and evenings, I am available! I can also be available on weekends for more long term house sitting. I make sure to communicate with pet owners on what makes them most comfortable. I make sure to check in regularly with pet parents, send photos, and let them know when I've come and gone to check in.
About: Hi, I’m Cooper. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who loves both dogs and cats and understands how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just calm company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and good at adjusting to each pet’s personality — energetic dogs, shy cats, senior pets, playful puppies, or animals who just need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send updates so you always know how they’re doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and my goal is simple: your dog or cat gets loving, reliable care, and you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to plan walks, visits, feeding, and playtime around each pet’s needs. I make sure every pet gets attention, care, and consistency. I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions closely and keeping their routine as normal as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the space, make sure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, handle feeding carefully, and give pets calm, attentive care. I focus on safety, comfort, and trust so every dog or cat feels secure while their owner is away.
“Andrea could not have been any better. She was professional, incredibly reliable and communicative, responsive, and accommodating for our dog while checking in on him. I would recommend for anyone to use Andrea, as she is a valuable and rare asset for this area.”
“Thanks, Andru, for watching Riley again and taking such good care of him. Appreciate the care and concern you provide for him and the peace of mind that affords us when we travel. Highly recommended Andru!”
“I’ve booked Emma multiple times to check in on my pets and she each time was a great experience. She let me know how my pets were doing and had great attention to the small details. Thank you Emma!”
About: I have hands on experience with puppies—helping with potty training, crate training, and basic commands and I’m also very comfortable with senior pets who may need a little extra patience, medication, or mobility support. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just snuggles on the couch, I make sure they get the attention and love they’re used to at home. My goal is always to make both you and your pet feel at ease, knowing they’re in caring and capable hands. I am currently working full-time, but I am able to provide quick potty breaks and feedings in the mornings. After work I am available for longer walks, cuddles, and play time. I am very trustworthy and I approach animals with a calming vibe. I understand your pets can be anxious and protective over your home, but I ensure that they trust me before anything.
“Sarah-Beth does daily drop-ins with my puppy, and it’s been wonderful. She leaves great notes (and hysterical photos of the puppy’s antics), and she is super responsive. So glad to have her there to check in on the pup while I’m at work.”
“Lauren was wonderful! She sent very helpful updates at every visit about how my babies were doing. I could tell from the photos they enjoyed being around her. So nice to know your pets are being cared for when you can’t be there with them.”
“Lauren is wonderful!!! This is the second time we have used her and she is reliable, caring, responsible, and you can tell she loves animals. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Kelie really went above and beyond to take wonderful care of Fable. I really appreciate the time she took to make her feel safe while I was gone! Thank you so much Kelie! I'll definitely be referring my friends to her!”
About: I have had pets my whole life! I have 10 years of experience with dogs, and I have 4 years of experience with cats! I have raised and trained 5 puppies and 2 kittens. I have also taken care of 2 senior dogs! I am a stay-at-home dad so I am always home with my dog and two cats! My availability is based on making sure my daughter has someone to watch her. I have experience working with many different dogs and differing rule sets. I am able to work with any rule or routine that your pet is accustomed to, to ensure your fur baby stays happy and comfortable!
About: I’ve taken care of Dogs,Cats, and small animals for as long as I can remember. Making sure every animal is treated with the love and care they deserve is my goal! I’m currently working from 9-6 but mornings and anytime after 6 works for me. Weekends are always open for me. If you need any other times please let me know. Always making sure that your home is clean and that your furry friends are comfortable. If your pet needs any extra love or attention in certain areas please let me know.
About: I have a few years experience of taking care of animals, alongside living my entire life with two dogs. I have experience with all ranges of pet sizes. I am comfortable with senior care, medication administration, but am more than happy to do anything to make sure your pet is well taken care of! I’m currently on summer vacation, so I am free most of the day! I love taking walks and being active, and love to spend time playing with my own dogs! I work part time in the morning or afternoon depending on the day. This means that I’m available for care taking in the evenings and early in the morning. When sitting, my focus is on the pet and treating them as if they were my own. I want both me, your pet, and you to have fun and know everything is in good hands. My goal is to provide pets with exercise, enjoyment, and attention at all times. When I’m with my own pets, I give them lots of pets, belly rubs, and playing with toys. I bring this level of love and care to clients animals anytime I can.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bella Vista
She took great care of our dogs while we were away and made sure they were safe, loved, and well cared for. She kept us updated, spent time playing with them, and even handled an unexpected issue with one of our dogs calmly and compassionately. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were being looked after. We really appreciate all the care she gave Buffy and Max!
Suzanne was amazing with our girls. It’s was our first time using Rover and we never felt more comfortable with leaving our girls in her hands. We got updates and pictures on every visit which allowed us to be able to enjoy our time away. Thank you Suzanne!!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bella Vista stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bella Vista choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Bella Vista with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bella Vista. On Rover:

- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
