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!
“Jocelyn was great with my kitties! It was nice having her help with the cats to give me peace of mind. She gave updates and was attentive to them. I definitely recommend her, and will use her again in the future!”
“At first Rider was not super happy, but Lindy knew to give him his space and he came out of his shell and was finally more himself! I’m so glad she was able to watch him for us while we were on vacation, she kept me updated and I felt like she really cared for him! Definitely recommend!!!!”
About: Hi I'm Jessica! I am currently a senior at the University of Arkansas majoring in psychology. I have been a lifelong dog lover. So much so that some of my favorite movies growing up were the Air Buddies series! I grew up with a dog, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. Since sophomore year of high school, I've pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know every dog is unique, and love getting to know what makes each one happiest. I am always up for an adventure, whether that is long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and will treat your pet(s) like they're my own. You can also count on regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I cannot wait to meet you and your pet(s)! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding instructions, exercise needs, medications (if needed), and any other preferences to help them feel as comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I'll keep your pet's routine consistent, make sure they get plenty of love and attention, and always prioritize their safety on walks and during playtime. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I have a corgi, and have grown up with dogs my whole life! I love dog sitting, dog walking, and all of the above. Let me come pet your dog please! I am a college student with an extremely flexible class and work schedule. I am studying Nursing and have plenty of time to spend studying with your furry ones! I think it is so important that pets are nurtured as family, because they are after all! I want to spend time with your pets just as I do my own.
About: Every one in my old neighborhoods would always rely on me to take care of walking the dogs and making sure they were fed when they’d go out of town! I’m looking for extra work to fill in some of my free time, and am looking to spend that time with your sweet pets :) In the past I’ve always made sure to treat my and others pets as if they were my own baby, it’s what my parents always raised me to do!
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10. Mine have been raised being treated like little humans and I cant wait to treat yours the exact same. I have cared for special needs dogs, puppies, and seniors. I have a special place in my heart for animals, and absolutely understand the want for a sitter that will love on your babies as much as you do! I am currently available almost all day everyday, and most weekends. On the occasion that I have errands to run, I am more than happy to take your love bug with me if they don’t like to stay home alone! I have two fur babies for your pets to hangout with (if he/she does good with other dogs)!One is big, one is small, and they are both inside dogs! We take them outside to play ball through the day and on plenty of walks! I have a fenced yard and walking paths all through my neighborhood! My parents live close, and my dogs love them just as much, so if your pets prefer to be by themselves that’s totally doable!! I’m pretty flexible, so I can give them as much or as little exercise as needed! If you’d prefer me be at your home, that’s perfectly fine as well!
“Adrianna was fantastic! She was communicative, friendly, and showed so much care and affection for our cat. She was always punctual and didn’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. We will absolutely work with Adrianna again in the future.”
About: I've always wanted to care for and work with all kinds of animals since a young girl. I have trained horses, dog/cat sat for friends and family, and have loved spending any and all free time with animals since I was 7 years old. I'm currently a student at UARK studying psychology, and hoping to become an equine assisted therapist someday in the future :) I would love to spend my free time throughout the week caring for your critters, aiming for at least a few hours a week on dog walking! I will always put the animal and their owner's needs, safety, and happiness above all else, and do everything I can to make it a comfortable experience for all parties involved. Of course I am also happy to discuss any extra needs of your households and of your pets.
About: Animals have always played a huge role in my life. From assisting with spay and neuter clinics, adoption days for strays, assisting with the rehab of wild animals for release, or just enjoying the company of a fur baby! I accept walks and drop-ins, whether reoccurring or not. I am able to care for senior pups and administer medication if required. Thank you for the consideration and I hope to hear from you. I’m currently working part time, accepting drop ins and walks. I’m unavailable on Mondays and Tuesdays and available the remaining days of the week. I do not board animals in my home. Let me know your dogs favorites (toys/treats/scratches/type of play) for drop-ins and they will be honored.
“Marilyn did a great job communicating ahead of time and during her visits. She sent lots of pictures of our cats, their food being filled, and their water running. This gave us peace of mind while we were away! I’d definitely recommend her for anyone’s fur babies!”

About: I am a vet tech at a clinic in Springdale. I have experience from puppies to senior dogs. I also have trained my own dogs as well as attended classes to gain more skills. I have experience with dogs that do have behavior issues, as well as food aggression, territorial, etc. I do work Full time throughout the week but can stay overnight and provide bathroom breaks on my lunch as well as before and after work. I work full time but have Wednesdays off. I can come let them out on my lunch and stay with them in the weekends but I will make sure they are let out regularly. I wouldn’t be able to have them at my home at this time, but when I am pet sitting I make sure the house is cleaner than when the owners left. I also make sure to keep the owners informed if there are any issues

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fayetteville
I am so glad we found Emily! She is so caring & helped put me at ease being away from my cat. She is communicative & has a gentle, kind way about her. She went above & beyond for Maxie, and she did a wonderful job making sure he got lots of love. If you’re an anxious cat mom like me, I would highly recommend booking with Emily!
Caroline was so amazing with my cat Juno all weekend! They were always on time and responsive, sending the cutest pics of my baby and keeping her entertained. They helped me out last minute when I needed a sitter, and I appreciate them so much! Will definitely be reaching out again whenever I need someone to look after my cat!
Amazing! Left us detailed notes every day on how our babies were doing. Took really good care of them while we were away, and kept the house tidy while we were gone. Cynthia was also super flexible when our travel plans changed. I’d absolutely rebook her and I’d absolutely recommend her without hesitation.
Shannon is amazing!! She left detailed updates with photos. I forgot to leave my cat’s toys out, and she brought toys to play with my cat. My cat loved Shannon, and she allowed Shannon to brush her. I hate to say so many wonderful things about her for fear she will become overbooked, but she is the best !!
Tess was amazing with our cat! She spent time with Mabel, gave her treats, fed her, and played with her when she stopped by. This was the first time Tess had sat for our cat, so I was happy when Mabel came right to her. We will definitely be using Tess again for our pet sitting needs. She also sent notes and lots of pictures!
Amanda was so great with our kitty Butters when we needed a sitter after other plans fell through! She was quick to respond to my request, and she always sent great photos and updates on how he was doing at each visit. I couldn’t be happier with her excellent service and care for Butters! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook in the future. I felt so much better and less worried on my trip knowing Butters was in such good hands.
Wonderful sitter! Friendly, responsive, flexible, and thorough - 0 complaints and would absolutely use again. She’s shown much love to our 3 attention-needy cats in our absence and has been super flexible while we figure out the best visit plans. Sent some great pictures of their playtime that made my wife and I both very happy to know our babies are getting some love :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fayetteville is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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 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 Meet & Greet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
