“It was our 1st time leaving our fur baby overnight & we are so glad it was with Ashlee! She gave him her undivided attention all weekend & sent us several updates. He came home exhausted but happy from his weekend of playtime!”
“We thank Caroline for communicating with us so well, being so understanding and thoughtful, and helpful too. Lots of good pictures and videos. We hope to use her again soon.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, my dad was a professional dog trainer growing up and my family loves every type of animal! I will be active with your pet babies, and am looking forward to meeting them and maybe even meeting new pet friends for my animals! I am happy to board your dog(s) on the week days if needed, but I do work from 8 - 3:15 Monday through Friday, so on weekdays they would get a break in the morning before work, sometime between 11 and 12, and then when we get home around 4 pm. The weekends and most holidays are an open schedule! If your pet stays in my home they will be treated like my own, so like a spoiled king or queen lol. We are not weird about them on the furniture, cuddling on the couch or bed during a movie is encouraged!
“Wonderful experience overall! Jessica, Shawn and their kids (super sweet and kind) were so personable and our dog immediately connected/bonded with them. Their house was extremely clean, smelled good, had a large immaculate backyard and it almost felt like we were leaving our dog at our own home. We received constant communication, not just pictures but also regular feedback on how our dog was doing which made us feel like he was in safe hands. I highly highly recommend Jessica and Shawn (and their kids).”
About: I’ve had dogs for over 40 years, and I truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I understand how hard it can be to leave your beloved dog in someone else’s care, and my goal is to make that experience easy and worry-free for both of you. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routines, favorite activities, and individual needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I would give my own. When your dog is with me, they’re family. ❤️🐶 I currently have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My availability allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship rather than rushing from one commitment to another. My pets are inside and we have a pet door. When caring for your pet I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, exercise, and bedtime routines. I also take time to understand their personality and make sure they feel comfortable in a new environment. Most importantly, I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is being loved, cared for, and treated like one of my own while you’re away.
About: i have always loved all animals, especially dogs. Growing up we always had animals at our house, and I was always in charge of taking care of them, bathing them and playing with them. I went to school for pre-vet but after graduation I decided to pursue a graduate degree instead of a vet degree. Nevertheless, my love and passion for taking care of animals never faded. My senior year of college I got my first, fully mine, puppy. She is the light of my world, and I have learned so much from her. She has grown with me. I got her when she was only 6mo old, trained her and now people ask me how I trained her so well. She is now 5yrs old and she is the best dog ever. I will take care of your pet as if it was my own. I do have a full-time job (Monday-friday, 7am-4pm) but I am free the rest of the day, my dog, Zoey, would love another dog to play with while I am gone! She is very well behaved. During the weekends I would be 100% available to watch the dogs all day if necessary. I do live in an apartment complex but i usually take Zoey on walks at least 3 times a day so I would be more than happy to do the same for your furbaby. If you need me to go to your house, I will always let you know when I arrive and when I leave. Zoey is not crate trained but if you need me to have a crate for your dog, I have one at home. I will make sure to send you pictures throughout the day and make you as comfortable and happy with the way I care for your babies :).
About: I’m a happy owner of two bulldog mixed girls and one orange male feline. I have taught the girls to swim and walk without a lead. I care for and love our furry family. Our big girl is getting old so exercise is too much for her. Our pets take care of each other by licking eyes and ears. Our cat doesn’t use a litter box instead will go outside. I’ve needed a trusting person to look over our animals and found this through Rover so I thought I’d return the favor during summer time. Looking forward to hearing from you. Household duties at your home are negotiable. They should like other animals if they stay with us. Please bring any comfort items or food
About: I've taken care of dogs in the past. I also have a dog of my own (couscous) and she my world. I love furry babies. I originally created this account in 2019 but wasn’t active due to school commitments. My schedule is now more flexible — I’m available Tuesday through Friday, as I work weekends as a CNA. I’m hoping to begin working with Rover during my free time. I have experience caring for my own dog, Couscous, and I’d love the opportunity to support other pet owners as well If my client has a fenced yard ill make sure to play with them outside. Take them out for walks and make sure to read the instructions that are left for me to do.
About: I work at 2 vet clinics in Siloam Springs! I am a kennel tech and work with dogs and cats every day. I will work with any breed or size of dog or cat. My job requires me to work with animals that are sometimes seniors or very young, nothing is out of my comfort zone. My experience at a vet clinic makes me knowledgeable enough to care for your pet safely. My availability is flexible because I work part time. I am available most mornings and some mid afternoons! Don't hesitate to ask, I am happy to answer any questions you might have about the care I can provide for your pet. I work part-time at a vet clinic with split shifts, I would love to care for your fur baby in between caring for patients! I understand that we all have different preferences for our animal's care. No one knows your pet better than you! If you have any extra requests that relate to the care of your pet please let me know!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
