“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!”

“My dog Alfie seemed to have a great time with Joshua! I hired him for in house sitting while on vacation and he was a phenomenal house guest, fantastic with Alfie, and did a wonderful job of sending updates/photos and accommodating any of my requests. 10/10 would recommend going forward.”


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.
“Jessi did a wonderful job watching our three dogs! They each received a lot of love from her, spending lots of time playing and cuddling. She is great at communicating and sent several updates and pictures during her stay. Would highly recommend.”
“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!”

“Monica was the perfect match for our lil girl who has never been without us in 5 years other then family. She communicates well, sent pictures and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better.”

“Deseray is very kind and I felt confident leaving my home and dog in her care. She took great care of everyone and the house and communicated well each day. Thank you, Deseray!”

“My dog loves Simone. She had a great time and is well cared for. My house is also in great condition when I return home. I couldn't be happier and look forward to traveling stress free whenever I need to.”


“Ana was great to work with and we will be using her again!! She immediately was loved by our (skittish) Aussie and both cats. She communicates well and responds quickly! It’s nice having someone you trust with your babies and home while gone on a trip. Ana let us enjoy our wedding anniversary without any worry!”

“Lauren was great! She stayed with our boy for 5 days while we were in Florida. We recieved tons of photos and updates about his eating habits. She took him on walks and gave him lots of love. Charlie can be a handful sometimes and we are so happy that we chose lauren and came home to a happy and healthy boy.”


About: Lifelong animal lover here, ready to care for your pet like family. I adjust to their unique personality and schedule, and I’m reliable with flexible availability for those “help, I need a sitter!” moments. Expect regular photo and video updates and lots of love. I work Monday-Friday. My boyfriend works from home and I come home for lunch at 12, and get off at 5. Your pup will have plenty of potty breaks throughout the day! I have a fenced in yard.

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! 😊
About: I’ve looked after and cared for animals since I was 10. This experience includes caring for my own pets and those belonging to others outside my home. My experience encompasses a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, exotic animals like reptiles, and small animals. Currently, I have five beloved pets: two dogs and three cats. I pride myself on being reliable and providing excellent care for other people's animals, and I would love the opportunity to do for you! I’m currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to look after your furry friends! My schedule differs depending on the day, but I am happy to work around anything. I am willing to look after animals on week days, nights, and weekends Whether you are home or not, I am happy to provide top notch care. I am happy to stop by your home for potty breaks, walks, or any care needed for your furry friends!
About: I’ve had a dog or cat in my life since I was five years old, and I’ve truly adored every pet I’ve had. Now that I’m in a new chapter of my life and unable to have a pet of my own at the moment, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I promise to treat them with the same love, attention, and care I would give my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routines, and I genuinely enjoy building connections with animals. Most animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and I always strive to make them feel safe and comfortable. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I will ensure your home is secure and that your pet feels safe and relaxed in their favorite spots. Before leaving, I always double-check their water, food, potty needs, and, of course, their daily dose of love and 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.
