“Carlie took great care of my dogs, Kuvi and Ziva. She communicated regularly and was flexible with the end of care time. Carlie left my house well cared for as well. I would highly recommend her.”
“Tess has been doing a great job walking my dogs regularly the last few weeks, so I knew I could trust her with my babies while I was out of town for a week. She sent regular photo updates of them eating, going outside and snuggling. She was considerate of the house and made sure to leave everything better than she found it. Her communication was great! I will be using her again.”
“Emily was just wonderful! Our birds took to her right away. She provided excellent care, sent tons of pictures and communicated frequently. She was so attentive and caring, provided a lot of interaction and took care of them so well. They just loved her. We will definitely use Emily again!”
“Kayleigh was amazing!! She left our house in wonderful shape and sent so many photos. I can tell our pets were happy and healthy in her hands. I can’t wait to rebook with her!”
“Ella took fantastic care of my girls and my home. I got lots of pictures and videos, which I loved. I had a late flight home, and she was kind enough to wash the sheets and towels she used and remake the bed so I didn’t have to come home and do it late at night.”
About: Growing up, there were always animals in the home that I would help take care of. We had 2 birds, 3 dogs (an old Shih Tzu, a German Shepherd, and a young Golden Retriever), along with barn cats. I would help my aunt take care of them and was trusted to pet sit whenever she was out of town. Now that I have moved out, I have an adorable 2 year old cat of my own. For a summer break, I also worked at a pet store, caring for a variety of animals like hamsters, bunnies, reptiles, and birds. I am an engineering student and have an on-campus job, but I am very flexible in my availability! I can do most nights except Monday and Thursday, along with room for visits during the day. I have always had pets in my home and I love to spoil them! I will treat your pets with the same love, and your home with respect!
“Lauren was great with my pitbull Isla! She was very attentive and prepared to learn all about her and took great care of her and my house while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will plan to contact her again in the future.”
“Grace is wonderful! She is kind, considerate, and did such a great job with our cat. She stayed a week in our home and treated it as her own, accepting packages, keeping things clean, sending us pictures, and letting us know about her days while we were away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I have been fostering my whole life and mainly working with the first 3 weeks of life. During fostering I train puppies at a young age and have also trained older dogs too. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including young pets who need extra patience and guidance, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra attention, or special care. I also pay close attention to pets’ body language and behavior so I can recognize when they are happy, nervous, stressed, or need some space. My goal is to give every pet the same love, attention, and care I would want for my own, while keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Pet care fits into my weekly routine because the summer has started for me so therefore I’m out of school and available all the time. I care for pets in my clients home by taking their pet potty and giving the pet love, food, water, and attention most importantly too.
About: Hey there! My name is Sam and I just moved to Arkansas from Texas! A little about me, I am a mental health therapist and primarily see clients online at this point in my career! I have been an animal lover my entire life. There hasn't been a time in my life where I haven't had an animal living with me (except my freshman year in college, but it was probably better that way!) I started by dog/cat sitting for family and friends back in Texas and that has grown into a side business that I want to bring to Arkansas. I’ve watched all kinds of pets: dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragon, ferrets, bunnies, horses, donkeys, goats, and more! I now only have one cat, Millie, who loves me and pretty much no one else. I miss having pups in my life and don't know a whole lot of people in Arkansas yet so I figured this would be a great way to connect and love on some animals! I hope to hear from you soon! My schedule is mostly consistent from week to week but I work odd hours and times. I work from home so I would be available all day! If I’m watching your pup at my home, I have an entirely enclosed fence so they would get plenty of outdoor/run time. Your pup would have to get along with cats, however mine will typically stay away if she knows someone or something else is in the house!
“Quinnley was amazing with my dog, Penny! She took her on walks, gave her lots of love, and treated my home with care. I came back to a happy pup and a spotless house. Highly recommend!”
“Megan was truly a blessing. We watched our 2 Great Dane babies for a week by staying at our place. They were extremely well taken care of. She sent us videos of them and she left the house immaculate even washing the linen. She deserves 100 stars. You will NOT be disappointed with Megan and he dog Bear is wonderful and gets along well with other dogs💙🐾💙”
“Kelsey took the time to get to know my dogs (one elderly Catahoula, one very shy and nervous Catahoula, and a very bouncy one-year-old Retriever) before we booked, and she was incredibly kind and patient. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Great experience. Jean came over a few weeks ahead for a meet and greet, communicated with me on everything, and was very easy to work with. The dogs were happy and got to stay home. Jean stayed at my house, took good care of the dogs, sent me updates and pictures, and even left a plate of fresh cookies.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have always been the go-to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from small chihuahuas to large golden retrievers, and I understand how to tailor care. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely love spending time with animals—whether it’s going for walks, giving meds, or just keeping them company. What sets me apart is my reliability, calm presence, and flexible schedule as a college student home for the summer. I treat every pet like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for morning and evening visits, as well as overnight stays if needed. Since I’m not juggling a full-time job, I can give your pet consistent attention and stick closely to their routine. Whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, feeding, or playtime, I can easily build my day around your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their routine, comfort, and safety above all. I take time to understand your pet’s preferences and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s consistent and stress-free. I always double-check doors, gates, and food instructions to ensure everything is secure and safe. I respect your home, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels loved and at ease in their familiar environment. I also believe in clear communication; I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at peace while you’re away.
“Abigail was great with our English bulldog Link! He seemed like he had such a great week with her! She left our house even better than she found it and was great at keeping us updated all week! Would definitely recommend her and will be using again!”

Juliet did an incredible job looking after my pup and taking care of the house. She sent lots of pictures and took care of my pup like it was her own. The house was in great shape. Juliet had collected the mail, water the plants and stripped the bed and washed the sheets she slept on. If you are in North Northwest Arkansas and need a great sitter, you should definitely book her.
Carlie was amazing with my pups! Mona usually gets sad when I leave and skips on meal, but she was just so comfortable with Carlie that she ate just fine and my puppy Kali was as happy as she can be with Carlie! Carlie was really good at taking great care of them and give them lots of love and sending updates with pictures! I will be reaching out to Carlie every time I leave town!
Shelby is so amazing! She sent pictures every day of our 3 dogs, she played with them and they were happy! We felt very comfortable leaving them with Shelby. I knew she was going to be great after we met her at the meet and greet, the dogs took to her instantly! We will be using Shelby in the future...there is no doubt!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fayette Junction walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fayette Junction maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fayette Junction choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
