“I definitely recommend! I was very skeptical at first because it was my first time booking a pet sitter but she was amazing. we met prior to the booking just to meet each other and talk a little! she followed instructions very well and I could tell my cats loved her company and were very comfortable. I loved all the photos she send and will book again!”
About: My dad is a vet so I grew up working in his clinic so that experience helps me a ton almost on a daily basis! Currently have 3 of our own fur babies and are obsessed with them and love giving them their best life! We do have a crawling baby at home so I will probably ask you how your fur baby does with our human baby! I work full time from home which leaves lots of room to care for fur babies. Most of the time I should be fairly flexible with scheduling and availability. We have a fully fenced 1/4 acre property all grass and even a small play pool for them, and a covered patio for shade. We have 3 dogs who all get along with other dogs and are used to friends visiting. All vaccinated and healthy. Definitely would prefer no shedding or minimal shedding if you want the dog inside, but up for discussion :) will always have water bowls inside and outside and can feed as needed. I do have two crates I could use if 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.”
“Alyxandrea was wonderful!! We had a last minute trip planned, and she didn’t hesitate to accept our drop-in request. Our puppies loved her and we will most definitely request her again for future trips!”
“Janet was wonderful with our Bella. We received daily reports of her well-being, and she sent lots of pictures. When we arrived home, it was very apparent that Bella was well cared for. Thank you for your services.”
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.
“Aly was an amazing sitter! I would give her over 5 stars if I could. She was highly communicative and super friendly. She gave me updates on my sweet cat Salem throughout her sit so I had peace of mind while I was away.”
About: My family always had dogs growing up, so I've been around them my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own. I've had them both since they were puppies. Brodee (a small lapdog) is now a spry 13 year old. Watson (a big moose) is now a very good 5 year old boy. Between the two of them, I've handled everything from puppy zoomies to senior-dog routines, so I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, age, or energy level. ——— I went through obedient training with Watson. This strengthened my understanding of how direct interactions can shape relationships with dogs. Our bond is really strong. ——— I regularly care for friend's dogs when they're out of town. Including feeding, freshwater, playtime, walks, and yes, cleanung up any messes without a second thought. Your dog's routine stays their routine while you're away. ——— Fair warning; I'm the person who asks "can I pet your dog?" to every single dog I see, then I end up lying on the ground letting them climb all over me. Your dog will get genuine, enthusiastic attention here, not just a bowl refill and a bathroom break. For weekdays, I am mostly available right in the morning and the later evening. I could make midday work with more planning. Weekends are pretty open. Feeding & Water I follow your dogs existing schedule and portions. I know how important it is to keep the dog's water available and their food reliable. They have amazing sense of time and they want their food when they expect it. --- Medication My senior dog as to take medication twice daily, so I am very familiar with how important timing of medication is. --- Exercise & Playtime Depending on the need of service, I may be the only contact your dog has for the day, so I want to make that time as enjoyable and exciting as possible for them. I get down on the floor with them and play. Tug, fetch, belly rubs, whatever your dog is into. --- Clean-Up Accidents happen! I handle messes promptly so they don't get any worse. --- Communication I can provide updates and photos as requested so you can have the piece of mind knowing that your little ones are being cared for while you are away.
About: I love dogs. Always have had one. Our last one passed after 13 years of happiness! Looking to fulfill my love of dogs by taking care of yours! You can be confident that your family member is in outstanding, loving hands. I have been a teacher for 27 years. My schedule allows me to be home when most need someone to take care of their pet. Fenced in yard, crate available, if requested. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. No other animals so yours will get sole attention. Security cameras installed.
“Katryna took such wonderful care of our kitties while we were out of town! She was attentive, sent many photos and updated us everyday. She was super friendly and thankful to leave them with such a good sitter!!”
“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’ve been around dogs, horses, cats and other animals my whole life. I have close friends that are vets I can call whenever! I send fun updates and treat all pets like my own! I can work from home on Fridays. The rest of the week I come home for lunch to spend time with the pups and only work 10 minutes from my house! I have a fenced backyard and one fur baby to have as company! I go for long walks every evening after work! I let the dogs roam free in my house!
About: I have been taking care of dogs since early childhood, and I now own a cat! I have taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors needing daily medicine. I have been trusted with the pets of my friends, family members, and family friends. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter as well! I have such a big heart for dogs of all ages and breeds! I am currently a full time cosmetology student on campus 8 hours a day Monday-Friday. Unfortunately, I am very limited on time during the weekdays, however, I am super flexible Saturdays and Sundays! I am unable to watch pets in my home due to my lease. However, I am willing to travel to yours! If special instructions are needed for your pet, please let me know! I can cage/kennel the dog(s) if needed!
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cave Springs
My cat is the most affectionate and cuddly cat on earth, but only with me. With everyone else, she will Harry Houdini into the nearest hidey hole. Despite this, Melissa was able to locate her and send me pics of her, the food/water dishes and litter box every time she visited over a 2.5 week period. It made me feel secure that my baby was being well taken care of despite her pretending to be a ghost. I highly recommend Melissa as she is both dependable and diligent. Thanks Melissa!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cave Springs is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 912 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cave Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cave Springs. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
