“Harriet was the absolute best. Communicative, caring, responsive, mindful, and just went absolutely above and beyond when taking care of Gnocchi, which is every pet parent’s dream! Highly highly recommend her for any dog sitting needed”
About: I used to work at a dog boarding, daycare, groomer, and vet and am currently a student at the University of Arkansas. I love all animals I am in town for summer from college and don’t have a set work schedule yet, but will keep this part of my account updated! I have three dogs of my own in my hometown and used to work at a dog place so I know a lot of warning signs and body language to be sure ur dog is happy healthy and stress free while you are gone!
“Erin was great with my girls! She sent photos and texts on a regular basis to reassure us that they were doing well, especially my nervous older dog. My puppy loved playing with her boys! She was awesome and I would definitely use her again and confidently recommend her to my friends.”
“Kindell was amazing. We were out of state for two weeks and she cared for our boy as if he were her own. He went on field trips with his new friends and Kindell sent us pictures to keep us updated on how our boy was doing. We'll definitely be rebooking in the future.”
“Iyari was an amazing sitter with our dog Margaux! She took great care of her and was keeping us throughly updated everyday all day! Would highly recommend Iyari to take care of your pet and will likely be using again!”
About: I have my own dog here at school, and shower her with love and care all day long! I absolutely love animals and have been around many different kinds since I was little. I will treat your pets like my own. I have one class a day, other than that I am free and will happily go on constant walks! I only have one class every day, so I will be very available. I’m an early riser naturally and very active so I’d love to add another dog into the mix. I live near Fayetteville square and many trails that I can take your animals walking on! I will send you photo updates too because I know they’ll be missed🥰
“She did a wonderful job with both of my dogs, especially my dog who’s very timid around other people. I’m very grateful I was able to find such a great sitter like her last minute! Will definitely go with her again next time I need boarding!”
“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.”
“Rachel was fantastic. My dog unfortunately didn’t get along with her cat and we didn't realize that until when I had to drop him off, but she was extremely accommodating of the situation and made sure Max was well taken care of.”
“Christy was amazing! I'm so grateful that I was able to find her last minute. I have a big dog, so her space and yard were perfect. And her family was incredibly sweet as an added bonus. I would highly recommend her!”
“Marissa does a great job looking after our kittem Bug, he looked super relaxed and comfortable in all the photos she sent. I will use her whenever we need someone to look after our pets”
“Mavis & Molly had such a great time with Savannah, it was hard to get them to leave. Not only did they have plenty of room to play, but Savannah also spent time on teaching them manners. I will certainly reach out to Rover/Savannah for our next trip.”
“Rebecca is a dream! She took care of our senior gal for two weeks, it was so comforting to know she was in such a loving home with her new best friend, Briar (Rebecca’s sweet Dog). She kept us updated the entire time with lots of pictures and videos, so we knew Ellie was having a nice holiday of her own. We highly recommend Rebecca!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elkins
Luna and Chuck had a great time with Kellie and her furry friends! She sent me pictures of them having fun everyday, sent updates of how things were going, and even worked with my puppy to stop his bad habit of jumping on people. I could tell she was attentive to their needs and their individual quirks. She has a true passion for animals, that’s clear! I will definitely bring my pups back to her!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elkins on Rover is $32.75 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 323 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elkins. About 94% of Elkins sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
