“My boys were so happy having Sherri here while we were away. It was so nice knowing they were loved and taken care of while we couldn’t be home. Getting updates and seeing them happy and in their own environment was so nice. We loved Sherri and will absolutely be using her again.”

“Kaitlin is FANTASTIC! She was able to watch my 3 dogs within an hour’s notice. She was SO sweet and very good with animals. She is extremely communicative and nice, provided updates and pictures throughout their time together. My dogs had big smiles in every picture she sent!! I honestly could not have found anybody better or more trustworthy to watch my pups. 🥹❤️ I will use her any time I am in the area again!!”

I currently work part time so I have the flexibility to work with your schedule! I am open and responsive and love to communicate and listen. I try to keep the schedule and be completely flexible. Keeping the home clean as well as pets. They are family and they deserve the best treatment they can get!
“Madison was one of the best Rover sitters we have used! She was respectful of our house - and took great care of Beau, sending us pics and updates. We will definitely hire Madison again in the future!!”

“Leah did an amazing job watching my two dogs. She took great care of my home, keeping everything neat and tidy, and genuinely cared for my pups as if they were her own. She was very responsive, communicated clearly, and kept me updated if anything was needed. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in such great hands. Highly recommend!”

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!
“Simone took such good care of Ollie while we were away! She’s so sweet and kind, and Ollie loved her. She sent several photos and a video, which we loved! We will definitely rebook!”

“Jessi was wonderful! She responded to messages quickly. She was prompt when arriving. She interacted with Buddy immediately by petting and playing. She was thorough obtaining information about food and care. She sent pictures frequently. We were extremely happy to have Jessi stay with Buddy.”

“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: 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! 😊

“Tyler is reliable & trustworthy! Would recommend for every one, great job of watching our dogs. They were well loved and cared for. The house was in perfect shape, as well, upon returning home. Communication was 10/10 leading up to & during our vacation. Really was a huge relief to know our home & boys were receiving great care & attention.”

About: I am an active walker and have always loved animals! I grew up with dogs and have babysat other peoples dogs before there was “Rover”. Every animal has a story and a personality and I’m very receptive and would love to just be a calming fun energy that gets added to their lives once in a while. I think that if you were to ask anyone that knows me they would say I’m the right one for the job:) For house sitting I typically like to meet in person to feel safe and comfortable of where I would be staying and make sure it’s a good fit. I can work remotely Mondays and Friday but work in office in Fayetteville Tues/Wed/Thurs. Please feel free to reach out to see if we can make things work in your location! I am a very honest and loyal person of integrity and I believe in respecting peoples property and treat all animals with kindness and love. I love to walk/run and lots of pats and belly rubs and cuddles.
About: I’ve had the privilege of being able to dig sit for multiple families and friends. Most recently, I dog sat for a couple weeks while a great friend of mine got to go abroad for a family vacation. Pet care has been so fun to fit into my routine, especially since I’m a student. On select days, I have far more availability to play with a fuzzy friend…. or even more! My services would only be in my clients’ homes, as I’m a university student. Attention to detail is a great passion of mine. There will always be care toward both your home and your fuzzy friend(s). The heart of service is love.
About: I’ve cared for and raised tons of different animals and pets, from cats and dogs to lizards, snakes, tarantulas, turtles, ferrets, and birds! Caring for an animal is like caring for a child, and I get such satisfaction and gratification out of both... I’m currently a homemaker with 3 children, aged 12-19!! I can work before school, during school, and after school, as well as overnights. I will very occasionally travel, but mainly around the holidays and a sporadic weekend here and there. For the most part, I’m free to care for your pet(s)!!!! All of my kids are animal lovers, so your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and play time. We go to a park that has a dog park, so ur dog will get plenty of exercise! I’m a full-time mom and wife; pet-sitting is my passion, n I can do it on any schedule for any length of time, as long as it doesn’t coincide with another client; I only keep one client’s pets at a time… Ur fur baby will almost never be alone, between myself and my family members. He or she will have plenty of care, love, n attention!!! I prefer not to crate animals, unless u deem necessary…
About: I’ve grown up pet sitting for my family members. I walk, I feed, I play, and I LOVE on their animals! I am currently in vet school to get my certification to be a veterinary technician! I also have 3 large dogs of my own ranging from 50-80 pounds! Don’t worry, all of your large breed babies will be in good hands! They will love this critter sitter! I have a full time job, but I have a lot of time for your little fur babies! I have full availability during the day (8 am until 2:30 pm). Perfect for those of you working your 9 to 5’s! I will make sure your pets are fed, have plenty of water, love, and make sure they are well exercised! You’d be wagging your tail too!
