About: I’ve have worked with many dogs some with special needs like diabetes and cancer. I’ve had also worked with many senior dogs. Will give medication if needed. I am currently home every day and all day unless I have an appointment.Being home I’m able to give the dogs all of my attention In my home dogs are free to roam the house get on the furniture.there is also a doggie door for them to come in and out when they like. I’ve made the fence secure so they can’t get out .

About: I have loved and raised animals as an adult for 20+ years. As an adult, I have cared for my hoo-man kids, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, indoor rabbits, and chickens! I have also done long term dog fostering in my home for a few months. My home is cat and dog friendly with a built-in, gated, doggy-den under the stairwell (used as a night kennel and day napping area). I have a fenced one acre property and the back yard is entirely fenced with 6' wood privacy fencing. For over two years, we have rented our backyard on SniffSpot as a private dog park (while we and our animals stay inside during their 1-hour reservation). My home has great windows for squirrel and bird watching. We have a large home where doggy day care and boarding pets will also get the love and attention from my husband and our teenagers (no children age 12 or younger in the house). We have loved many pets over the years. Right now we only have one cat, who can be kept completely separated from your animals the entire time I board them. I do not work outside the home, so I have a flexible schedule at home allowing me to provide in-home pet sitting at my property, or to check on your fur-babies throughout the day. My teens and I enjoy volunteering with cats at our local shelters and we used to volunteer with horses (cleaning stalls, brushing, and cleaning their yard). During my childhood I lived and help care for several different dogs, cats, rats, birds, chickens, and hogs. I dog walked in elementary school for a neighbor. Then at age 18 I began overnight house alone and pet sitting for households with dogs and horses. I am currently a stay at home parent, most recently working a remote job from home. I have a flexible schedule to care for pets in my home, or check on your fur-babies at your home. I have a fenced one acre lot which is also rented to dog owners on SniffSpot. We are home during the day and can provide frequent potty breaks and attention. Our children are age 13+ are great with dog and cats and have always lived with pets and helped care for them. We have done long-term dog fostering in our home, and we loved our 110+ pound older dog rescues in our doggy retirement home until they crossed the rainbow bridge. We have one cat, who can be kept in a separate bedroom if one of our new house-pet guests needs space. My children have been dog sitting for a neighbor in their home for over a year for feeding, potty breaks, and enrichment in the yard with them. My kids and I look forward to pet-sitting in our home again, or providing enrichment and attention to the pets at your home during your travels.

About: I have been dog sitting for friends and family for the last few years. With working from home it makes it easy for me to help out when needed. I have house broken 4 puppies and 1 adult that was not house broke when we got him. I’ve had experience with dogs with anxiety, yeast prone and dogs that have allergies. I know how to give shots if needed. We’ve rescued dogs and rehabilitated who were abused and neglected that had severe anxiety and trust issues. He have a larger home with a good sized fenced in yard full of love and fun! Reach out with any questions! I work full time from home Monday thru Friday. I am home the majority of the days my home schedule is pretty flexible so I am able to care for pets anytime of the day. We have 2 dogs, one large one small. We have wood and tiles throughout the home in case of accidents. Our home is 2700 sqft with a decent sized fenced in yard perfect for play time. We have a large patio that we utilize often that is covered with a large fan and plenty of shade. We don’t usually let the pups outside without us being out there.

“Jocelyn was very accommodating, we had forgotten a sitter for some plans we had and she was able to take in Charlie for us. Have plenty of updates on Charlie and some great pictures. We recommend booking with Jocelyn!”

“Christopher took good care of my dog and cat while I visited the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville. He provided a cool place for my 19 year old cat to relax and 2 sweet dogs for my young cattle dog to play with. I’d definitely use him again when I visit Bentonville.”

Jane H.

“Tracy was great, took great care of Bracken, and sent updates throughout the day! She was nice enough to accept our request last minute. We will definitely bring Bracken back!”

“Where do I even begin! Luca had the BEST time with Barbara. I was on vacation and needed someone to help my husband with our puppy, and Barbara was incredible from the start. She responded quickly, and we even got to meet her and her dogs beforehand. Luca didn’t want to leave! hahaha! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby.”

About: I am a lifelong dog lover, I grew up with dogs and have always loved having pets around. I've been dog sitting and walking for family and friends for as long as I've been able to drive and is something I really enjoy! I'm currently in school and I have lots of availability and flexibility for dog walking, and I love going on long walks. I have experience with all kinds of personalities, from energetic puppies, to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m very active and love spending time outside, so dogs who enjoy walks, runs, and playtime are a great match for me. I treat every pet like they’re my own and promise to give your pet lots of love! I currently only have classes on Monday mornings, which gives me a very flexible schedule during the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I love getting outside for walks or runs, so spending time with dogs fits perfectly into my daily routine. I am unavailable Thursdays, but I’m flexible the rest of the week and on weekends. When taking care of other people's pets I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow feeding schedules, make sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime, and give them lots of attention so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I make sure to listen to each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they want long walks, playtime, or just some relaxed company. I also make sure pets are safe, clean up after them, and keep owners updated. One of my favorite parts about pet sitting is getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Every dog has their own funny little quirks and habits, and I love learning what makes them happy!

About: I have experience in taking care of pets ever since I was 5 years old. I have the most experience with taking care of dogs with feeding, bathing, walking, and training. A pet is a family member and will be treated as such. I work from home every day and am able to freely care for your furry friend throughout the day and attend to their needs as needed. I have 3 kids who also love dogs. I am open all week and will make sure your pet is considered part of the family when taking care of them. I do not have a fenced-in yard but will walk your fur baby daily. We go out 3 times a day every day and have play time or stimulation such as lick mats daily.

About: Hey! I’m Kassie, and my baby is Boomer 🐾 We’re a dog-loving household with a steady routine, lots of affection, and plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles. I’m the kind of sitter who sends pics, gives frequent potty breaks, and makes sure your pup feels safe and spoiled (in the best way). Boomer is my built-in “assistant,” so I’m already in full dog-mom mode daily—your dog will fit right in. I currently have a hybrid job and am home more than not, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can easily work pet care into my routine with regular potty breaks, playtime, and a calm, comfortable environment. I would love to spend my weekends loving on your babies—weekends are perfect for extra cuddles, walks, and quality time. In my home, I follow your pet’s exact routine (feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, meds if needed) and provide a safe, cozy environment with lots of attention. I work a hybrid schedule and am home more than not, so pets aren’t left alone for long—and I love spending weekends loving on your babies. I also have my dog Boomer, and I always do safe, slow introductions. In your home, I keep things consistent with your normal routine—meals, walks, play, potty breaks, and cuddles—plus photo updates each visit.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with a very flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and spending time walking, playing, and exploring with dogs. I live on acreage with plenty of open space and private trails where your dog can get lots of exercise and fresh air. I’m happy to walk dogs leashed or unleashed—whatever you prefer and feel most comfortable with. If your dog is more of a couch potato than an athlete, that’s perfectly fine too! I have plenty of experience with older, calm, and low-energy pets and am happy to match whatever pace fits your dog’s personality—whether that’s an adventure walk or just relaxing together at home. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they get the attention and routine they need. Communication is a top priority for me. You’ll receive frequent updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected while you’re away. Please note: I don’t stay overnight at clients’ homes, but I’m happy to offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, and extended daytime visits. I look forward to caring for your furry family member! With a flexible daily schedule, I can give your dog consistent care and companionship instead of rushing in and out. Your pet will always be a priority in my day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I am reliable, responsible, follow instructions carefully, and always treat every dog like my own.

“Our doggy had a great visit with Morgan!”

About: Hello, fellow dog moms and dads! I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience and two dogs of my own. I work fully remote, and as a dog parent I know how reassuring it is to be able to check in during the day for quick potty breaks, fresh water, and a little attention when they need it. I’d love to extend that same dependable, thoughtful care to you, so you can feel confident your dog is safe and cared for, whether you’re stuck in an office all day or just have a busy schedule. New to Rover? Use my promo code for "ALIR70263" for $20 off your first booking with me! What sets me apart is my focus on reliable communication and safety. I’m responsive, I follow your routine closely, and I’ll always send photo updates and a clear recap after each visit. I also have experience with brachycephalic breeds (like English Bulldogs and French Bulldogs) and understand the extra care they can require—especially around heat, breathing, and pacing on walks. In addition, I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, including slower-paced walks, gentle routines, and extra patience and monitoring. I’m happy to tailor each visit to your dog’s needs and energy level. I’m also currently working on my pet CPR/First Aid certification to further strengthen my safety knowledge and preparedness. Outside of Rover, I also offer pet waste cleanup services for local families who want help keeping their yards clean. If you’re interested, feel free to ask and I can share details! Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I’m a dog owner myself. I work fully remote, so I’m used to planning my day around potty breaks, walks, feeding times, and check-ins. Because I’m home during the day, I can be responsive with midday drop-ins and walks and communicate quickly if anything comes up. I keep a consistent schedule and plan routes close by so I can be reliable and on time. I follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Drop-in visits (up to 40 minutes) are perfect for a midday check-in while you’re at work or away. During each visit, I’ll follow your routine and make sure your pup is comfortable and cared for: a potty break, fresh water, feeding if requested, and some playtime/affection. I’ll also do a quick check that doors/gates are secure before I leave. Dog walks (up to 30 minutes) are a dedicated, leash-only walk for exercise and enrichment. I’ll walk at your dog’s pace, allow time for sniff breaks, and prioritize safe leash handling the entire time. After the walk, I’ll make sure your dog is settled with fresh water and I’ll send photo updates and a recap (including potty info). **If your dog needs feeding, medication, or extended playtime, those are best booked as a drop-in visit so I can follow your full care routine.

About: I had my first dog when I was 8 and raised her from a puppy for 5 years. Also, I’ve been pet/dog (e.g. dogs, cat, reptiles, etc.) and house sitting for several years. I graduated from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, was born and raised in Northwest Arkansas, and currently volunteer with the Fayetteville animal shelter. I’m currently working full-time M-F from 8am-5pm with a few breaks. More than willing to do whatever takes to ensure you and your pet are most comfortable. We have several parks nearby within a quaint subdivision. I have a 2BR apartment, no pets, and tons of amenities available (dog park, walking trails, etc.).

“Rosie has such a great time with Becca! She is very flexible with my school schedule and always has Rosie leaving happy and worn out when I pick her up!”
