“Christopher and Grace were so kind, caring for my dogs like their own. They sent regular reports and pictures and were fast to respond when I reached out. I have no doubt that my pups were well cared for and pampered while in their care, and I’m so grateful!”
“Alicen was AMAZING with Dan!! Helped us out in a last minute Hail Mary on a Holiday weekend as well!! Could never recommend someone more! Danny played so well with her 2 pups and Alicen kept us very well updated with pictures!!”
“Tracy was amazing with Olive—so attentive and communicative, with lots of photo updates that gave me total peace of mind. Olive was clearly well cared for and happy. I’d absolutely recommend Tracy and would book with her again!”
“Megan watched my dog Bentley over the 4th of July weekend for the first time. She was flexible and responsive even though my booking was short notice. She stayed in communication during his stay and sent me picture and video updates while he was with her. Bentley enjoyed his time with her and her dog Bear. I would definitely book her again.”
“Hannah was great, super helpful, patient, friendly and easy to work with! She kept us updated and our pup was very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely use her services again. I highly recommend her!”

I am a stay at home mom with my 2 kiddos (ages 3 and 5) and a 4 year old Golden Retriever; so my schedule is always flexible I will follow all the guidelines that you set for your furry best friend. I will treat your fur baby with the best possible care
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and happy to follow any special instructions or routines your pet needs. I am currently a college student, but I’m pretty flexible with my time. I’m available to take your dog out for walks, drop-ins, or even boarding for a few days. I also have three other roommates who love animals and can help out when I’m busy or need an extra hand. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention and care. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I always make sure pets are safe, secure, and never left unattended. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving extra snuggles, or keeping things tidy, I go the extra mile to ensure peace of mind for both you and your pets.
“Very professional and prepared for my two kittens! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day as well as had toys and pet care needs already there. I 100% would book with Ally again!”
About: I’ve been petsitting through Rover and for friends/family for a long time! I’ve handled puppies/kittens, low and high maintenance animals, different types of living situations, and more! I am a volunteer at Best Friends Animal Society, and I’ve grown up around pets my entire life. Currently, I run a nonprofit that keeps me Wednesday-Sunday from 12-6, but I can always go and check on a pet if needed during that time! In my home, I am very open to just about anything the pet wants to do, such as laying with me in bed, going on drives, etc., and I always check with people before sitting to make sure I respect the rules they have for their pets.
“I highly recommend Lynne. She was wonderful with Reggie, my Boston Terrier, while I was gone on vacation for two weeks. Lynne texted and sent pictures of Reggie daily, and I could see that he was happy. Lynne treated Reggie like he was her own dog. I felt that Lynne provided a safe and secure environment for my little guy.”
About: I’ve had 2 dogs for all of my life until very recently! I’ve cared for a senior dog, a service dog, and an active german shepherd / labrador mix who can walk for hours!!! I am genuinely always looking to hang out and care for other’s dogs as I know how much MY dogs love attention, love, and care :) My apartment is a one bedroom apartment but I have boarded other dogs there before, my home is their home!!! As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for all kinds of animals, from livestock and large animals to the littlest pets! I'm comfortable administering medications, handling different temperaments, and providing whatever care your pet needs. I treat every animal like my own and want to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My schedule varies throughout the week. I have class Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9–11 AM. I work Tuesday through Saturday from 4–9 PM. I'm generally available outside of those hours and happy to coordinate care around my schedule! I provide loving, attentive care and do my best to keep pets comfortable in their familiar routines. I follow feeding schedules, make time for play, walks, and cuddles, and always make sure they feel safe and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and respect each owner's instructions and home.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Chester can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Chester home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Chester.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chester. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Chester sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
