House Sitting in Cherokee City

About: Hi there! 👋 I'm Ingrid, your go-to dog sitter, walker, and drop-in buddy based in Siloam Springs. I'm a lifelong animal lover and an experienced pet caretaker, and I can't wait to meet your furry friends to ensure they have a tail-wagging good time! 😊   Services I Offer: • Dog Sitting: Whether you're away for a night or a week, rest assured your pup will be in a safe, loving environment with plenty of cuddles, playtime, and attention. • Dog Walking: Regular exercise is key to a happy and healthy dog. I'll make sure your pup gets the fresh air and exercise they need! • Dog Drop-Ins: Need someone to check in on your pet during the day? I'll stop by, feed, play, and give your dog some company while you're away. What You Can Expect: • Professional Care: Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priorities. I'm experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, providing compassionate, responsible care at all times. • Fun and Engagement: From playing with their favorite toys to indoor fun, your dog will have a blast with me. I love finding new ways to keep them entertained and happy! • Reliability: If I say I'll be there, you can count on me. I understand how important it is to stick to a schedule for both you and your pet. • Detailed Updates: You'll get photos and messages after each visit or walk, so you'll never have to wonder how your pet is doing! A Little About Me: I've been wagging tails and giving belly rubs since I was a kid – dogs have always been a part of my life! With over 20 years of experience, taking care of dogs feels like second nature to me. I currently have two adorable 10-year-old Miniature Schnauzers and a spunky 5-year-old Pitbull who are my constant companions on all my adventures. You know, my friends call me the "Crazy Dog Lady," and I wear that title with pride! Dogs bring so much joy to my life, and I genuinely love being around them! If I see a dog out in public, I always walk up to the owner and ask if I can pet their puppy (yes, I'm that person! 😊). I'm super passionate about this work because I know how tough it can be to find someone you trust to care for your pets as well as you do. I know no one will provide better care for your fur babies as you would, but I can promise to give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve! I'll do my absolute best to make sure they feel like the top dog in my care!   When I’m not busy playing with pups, I enjoy hiking, exploring the great outdoors, and learning about animal behavior.   I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. 😊   Contact: Send me a message through Rover, and let's set up a time to discuss your pet’s needs! 😊

“Kaitlin took wonderful care of our “Chonk”. She sent pictures of him enjoying his time with her. She was very quick with responses to any texts I sent. We would definitely have her take care of Chonk again!”

About: Hi! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule looking to fill my time doing something I love! My family and friends have looked to me for pet care, like walking dogs, letting them out, feeding them, and pet-sitting over night. I am currently working part-time in school and have wide, flexible availability. Whether it’s pet sitting for multiple days or a quick walk, let me know when you need me and I’m there! I offer care exclusively in the client’s home, where pets feel the most comfortable. I follow all care instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and ensure a clean and friendly environment!

“This was our first time using Rover and finding Candice was such a blessing! Our dates were on short notice and she made the effort to do our meet and greet same day as the booking! We have a new puppy and another dog with separation anxiety, and Candice was able to stay at our home for the weekend to care for them! She sent videos and pictures every day and you could see how much happier they were being in their own home with someone to care for them versus a strange kennel. I would definitely recommend Candice and will be keeping her as my pet sitter moving forward!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have a soft spot for every animal I encounter. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, run, feed or just simply play with them. I have experience with large dogs all the way to tiny dogs. I even know a lot about cats. I'm currently working part time in the mornings until about 11. I am available after 11 a.m. to help with whatever your fur baby needs. I will be able to feed, walk, give a simple bath and/or play with them. In your home, I will provide a safe and fun environment for your fur babies. I will be happy to help in any I can. Your pets will get extra lovings!

About: I have had several animals growing up so I am familiar with taking care of animals. I cannot have animals where I live, so I pet sit a lot for my friends and family. I have taken care of animals of all ages and I can read their body language pretty well. I am a house cleaner and work Monday-Friday, but my hours vary depending on the cleans for the day. I may go into work later in the day or get off earlier, so I’m pretty flexible. During the weekends I don’t usually do anything so I would be available all weekend. I can care for your pets in home. I understand and can perform specific duties based on the instructions left for their care. I am experienced in giving animals medication and crating them if necessary.

“Tammy was such a great help while we were on vacation. We got great photos and detailed messages about how they were doing. She has such a love for animals and I know they were so spoiled with affection while she was there. We even had a last minute emergency and she was happy to help us out with a last minute drop in visit and left the place cleaner than she found it! We will definitely be using Tammy anytime we are away!”

“From the moment I meet Jessie, she made me feel confident that I had made the right decision to use Rover and choose her as our sitter. She stayed one week in my house and took excellent care of my three dogs. She was in contact with me every day sending pictures and updates. My dogs loved Jessie. She is a lovely young lady and very professional.”

“I needed a sitter last minute as I changed my mind to board my dog (he’s 11 and getting pickier by the day). She was quick to respond, even came by the day before to meet up and kept me updated on how he was doing. Thanks again!”

“Rachel was so great with Milli. Milli needs lots of attention and can’t really be left alone. Rachel was very attentive to those specific needs. She was fast to respond when I was in a pinch and needed someone immediately. Rachel also was very communicative and shared lots of pictures of Milli, so I knew she was safe.”

About: I genuinely love animals, so this isn’t something that feels like a chore to me—it’s something I truly enjoy doing. Because of that, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and tuned in to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable working with pets of all ages, including young animals that need a little extra attention and older pets that may need a calmer, more gentle approach. I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. I am recently unemployed, so my daily and weekly routine has been pretty flexible. I am very open to discuss working at anytime and will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I house and pet sit every so often and enjoy doing it. I also set aside time during the week to focus on job searching and planning next steps. I follow all instructions given to take of your pets and do everything to make them feel loved/not throw them off schedule. I am a very responsible person and take good care of homes and pets.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 15+ years for dogs of all sizes and breeds! Ready to care for your pet like it is my own! I work in education so I have really flexible summers with lots of time to care for your dog! My schedule allows me to come and go as I please so I’m available to go on walks and play with the dog as much as needed! My apartment is super dog-friendly! I’m happy to have your dog on the couches and they can sleep on the bed! I have access to a lot of green space right by my apartment and plenty of safe-walking areas!

About: I’ve taken care of family & friend’s horses, dogs, cats and even a bird! Most of the cats I look after are senior cats, however I also care for dogs too! (A St. Bernard, 2 daschunds, a pitbull, and 2 Rottweilers, just to name a few breeds) I’m a pretty adventure-driven person and empathetic to animals. The people I surround myself with, love to travel (as do I) and often times their dogs and cats need a reliable & established sitter so I do tend to travel out of state to pet sit and housesit when needed. I’m currently an independent artist & retired wrestler on the move to Arkansas from Kentucky. I don’t have any pets of my own but I enjoy taking care of animals of loved ones and neighbors. As I start this new chapter of my life, I’m looking to create art more while a flexible but full time job of pet sitting. You’re welcome to provide me with care instructions but I mostly just talk to animals like they’re small children learning. I sing songs sometimes when I play with toys or when we go on walks, but especially during bathing(if necessary/requested) a cat/dog to help calm their nerves. Cats tend to love cuddling with me and I love taking active dogs for walks on nature trails or car rides.

“Steffany did a great job housesitting! She barely left my dogs alone for 4 days, followed instructions, and even cleaned and washed the bedding before leaving. I’ll definitely use her again in the future and recommend to anyone needing a house sitter!”

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.
