Dog Sitting in Bentonville

About: I’m looking to make some new fur pal friends and help provide the most fun and safe care! I have plenty of experience with animals and have my own fur best friend at home as my ESA. I am very reliable and easy to work with. I have experience with anxious dogs and dogs who have allergies and health issues. I have experience working in vet clinics and animal urgent care. I currently have my own pet business (I am not able to specify because of Rover) I never walk dogs on surfaces I can’t walk barefoot on. I do NOT take dogs that aren’t my own to the dog parks only because I like to avoid altercations between pups as much as possible. I will always make sure your pup is in a healthy state and if I think differently I will contact the owner with my concerns. I have a good connection with my vet and am welcome to bring in any animals in distress or injuries. I am free most of the time so I have open availability for my clients most days of the week so I can almost always take last minute clients. Safety is my biggest concern when handling and caring for your fur pal and I will always keep you updated on the status of your animals health.

“We were so grateful to have found Michelle to watch Posie. We found her with short notice and she made time to meet with us. I felt at ease after meeting her. Very intentional, kind and loving to animals. She kept me informed with sweet texts and photos. Posie was very much cared for and was herself the whole time. ?. We will definitely be using her in the future to watch our Golden.”

“Nicolle was a fantastic pet sitter for our two cats. We have a young, feistier kitty and an older, more reserved kitty, and she was so sweet with both of them. She communicated well each day about how they were doing, what kind of mood they were in, and if they were eating or playing. She also answered any questions that I had right away. She followed all directions and I felt very secure with my pets in her hands. She is a really sweet and wonderful person, and I would happily book her again to take care of our babies. I loved the daily pictures and the fact that I could count on her to be there on time every day to spend some time with them. Nicole is: sweet and playful with the pets, calm and affectionate with the older one, punctual about arriving on time, pays attention to the details of my instructions, communicative throughout, professional, and trustworthy.”

“Amanda is super sweet and I can tell she really loves our kitties! She sent updates and pictures with each visit which is definitely a must for me and most pet owners. I am so glad to have found Amanda for our cats!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my extensive experience and deep passion for dog care, particularly through my work with a second chance animal shelter. Fostering dogs has allowed me to develop a unique skill set that includes training puppies and providing specialized care for senior dogs. I understand the challenges and rewards of nurturing dogs from various backgrounds, and I am adept at creating individualized care plans that cater to their specific needs. My experience with fostering has also equipped me with patience and empathy, enabling me to build strong bonds with dogs, regardless of their past experiences. Additionally, I am knowledgeable about behavioral training techniques, which helps me instill good habits in puppies while also addressing any behavioral issues in older dogs. This blend of hands-on experience, training expertise, and a heartfelt commitment to animal welfare ensures that every dog in my care receives the love, attention, and tailored support they deserve. Incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine is an essential aspect of my lifestyle that promotes both my well-being and that of my furry companion. Each morning begins with a refreshing walk, allowing my dog to enjoy the outdoors while kickstarting my day with exercise and fresh air. Throughout the week, I allocate specific times for feeding, play, and grooming, ensuring that my pet receives the attention and care it deserves. Additionally, every weekend is an opportunity for quality bonding time, whether it's a trip to the dog park or a leisurely hike together. Spending quality time with your pet not only enriches my daily life but also strengthens the special bond I share with dogs, making it a rewarding and fulfilling routine. Caring for pets in my home or my client's home revolves around three key pillars: safety, trust, and a nurturing environment. To ensure safety, I conduct a thorough examination of the living space to identify and remove any potential hazards, such as toxic plants, small objects that could be swallowed, or unsafe areas where pets might escape. Building trust is equally crucial; I take the time to establish a positive relationship with the pets through gentle interactions, consistent routines, and recognizing their unique personalities and needs. This fosters a sense of security and comfort for them. Lastly, creating a suitable environment is vital; I ensure that pets have access to clean water, nutritious food, and cozy resting areas, while also providing stimulating toys and activities to keep them engaged. By prioritizing these aspects, I strive to provide a caring and supportive atmosphere that promotes the well-being and happiness of every pet in my care.

About: I have been volunteering at best friends for about two years in the pet clinic, and I have looked after the family dog whenever my family is out of town. I am pretty much free whenever, especially on weekends. I can do part or full time during mornings, afternoons, and even evenings. For now, I do not do overnight stays yet. I have a fenced yard and I always feed our family dog like clockwork, breakfast in the morning and right before dinner. I also take her on walks and engage her with play.

About: My family has had pets since I can remember. We are an animal loving family; from birds to dogs to even turtles- you name it, we love it. I have such a big heart for all animals and love spending time with your furry friends! Whether you need me just for the night or for a longer stay, I'm happy to be there for your fur baby. Overnight stays are my favorite way to spend time with your fur baby ☺️ I work part-time as an esthetician, which would not take me out of the house for longer than 6-7 hours at a time! I do not offer in home services, but I am happy to come to your house and hang out with your pet! I can feed them as needed or just fill the bowl for grazing. If they need to be let out, just let me know how you want it done and I’ll do it! I’m here to make this process as effortless as possible for the pet owners. Whatever you need, I’ll take care of it!

“Sarah did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were on a 10 day vacation. One cat doesn’t like strangers but she made friends (as friendly as he gets) with him the first day. She went above and beyond by even vacuuming up all their hair mid way through our trip. We will definitely be using Sarah again!”

Leslie P.

“Elsy helped us out on short notice and took great care of our pets and home also. She communicated with us as needed and I will certainly reach out to her again when needed!”

“Sandra was wonderful with my cat, Salem! She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos while I was away. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Salem was being well cared for, and she was happy and relaxed when I got home. I would definitely book with Sandra again and highly recommend her to other pet parents.”

“We had a great experience with Cynthia. She was easy to work with and made sure Cooper was well taken care of. Will definitely use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud Lab mom. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing medication and extra attention.

About: I worked as a dog walker and sitter for 3 years and had my own dog for 16. I’m comfortable with different temperaments, follow routines closely, and pay attention to behavior so things stay consistent and dogs feel settled. I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day. I do teach yoga a few times a week, which takes me away for 2–3 hours at a time. Otherwise, I’m home and present with the dog. I’m in a single-family home with a large (partially fenced) backyard, though I prefer getting dogs out on walks rather than relying on the yard. I live near the Bentonville trails and greenway, so that’s where we go for longer walks - usually in search of the best sniffing spots. No other pets or children in the home. It’s a quiet, non-smoking space. Windows are usually open for fresh air, and there’s a big floor-to-ceiling window where dogs can hang out and watch the calm, quiet street. I’m flexible between sitting at my place or yours, and I can accommodate a crate if needed.
