About: I grew up with pet dogs. I've since become a "cat lady" but continue to love dogs. Out on neighborhood walks I have to stop and pet every dog and cat I meet! There's nothing like a bright dog face and and a wagging tail or a cat purring and rubbing against my legs! I'm recently retired and have lots of time to spend taking care of your pets. I'm available weekdays and weekends, daytime and evenings, and holidays. I'm flexible and open to hearing about your pet sitting scheduling needs. I grew up with dogs, but now I'm a cat lady who loves and pampers my little boy, Mr. Kitty. I prepare special food for him, give him lots of attention, and take him for long walks in his cat stroller. I'm an energetic and responsible recently retired hospice nurse. I'll pamper your pets and give them the greatest care. I'll also treat your space with respect and maintain a clean environment in your home.
“Tess is wonderful! She communicates well, is on time, and most importantly….George loves her. When she came for our meet and greet, he started to lean on her right away💕”
About: I’ve been able to dog sit since I was a freshman in high school! Friends have been able to rely on me to take care of their fur babies! I’m working part time at night and I’m taking a small break from school this semester, so I have free mornings during the week! I care for my pets at home by keeping an eye on them and not letting them get into anything they’re not supposed to. I give them plenty of playtime inside and outside, and take them for walks!
“Thank you, Anna for taking care of our Goldens! It was so nice coming home from our trip to happy dogs and clean floors. Our boys get nervous when they are left too long and they were not stressed at all when we returned. Thank you again!”
“Alicen has been amazing with our puppy. He is a very anxious and shy dog and she has been great with him and he immediately became comfortable around her. She is very communicative and always updating us. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Natalie did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 cats. It is so nice to have someone not only to feed them, but to play and spend time with them when I am away. She sent great pictures and videos and even brought in some packages that arrived for me! 😊”
About: I have genuine love for pets. I’ve taken care of dogs all sizes since I started dog sitting for friends and family. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and happy while you're away. I provide plenty of playtime and affection, and communicate regularly with owners to keep them updated. Your pets will be in caring hands! I’m available to take care of your pet mostly outside of my class times. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I can help before 8 am, between 10 am and 2 pm, and after 5 pm. On Tuesday and Thursday, since I only have one morning class, I’m free for the rest of the day to give your pet attention, feed them, and make sure they get exercise and care. I’m an organized person and like to be on schedule, making sure I know my timing for the day ahead by planning for the day the night before. I care for pets by creating a safe and comfortable environment. I check keep the space clean and follow all care instructions closely. I communicate openly with pet owners and give pets plenty of gentle attention to make them feel secure and loved.
“Amanda was amazing. Even took the time to visit for a quick meet and greet prior to the appointment. Very friendly and Loki loved her. Will definitely call again when needed and highly recommend.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have helped with feeding, walking, playtime, and everyday care for years. Since age 16, I’ve also house sat for both dogs and cats following their usual routines, keeping their homes secure, and providing owners with updates. I’m extremely comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs :). I will send lots of check in’s, pictures, and updates and follow the instructions exactly as you need me to. I’m currently a student at the University of Arkansas, and my schedule allows time for pet care before and after classes, in the evenings, and on weekends. I keep my availability updated and will only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates and photos throughout each visit.
“McKenna was able to drop in for my puppos on a late request to save the day!! She was very quick with responses and punctual on visit. My boys were grateful for the fresh air and bathroom break as I was gone most of the day! Will continue to call on McKenna when needed! Thanks!!”
About: I have experience with house sitting for dogs, cared for puppies since a young age, and assisted with basic training. I am patient, attentive and focused on safe, enjoyable walks. I am currently an architecture student, with a consistent week schedule. Which allows me to offer reliable dog walking times. I’m available for walks Tuesday and Thursday mornings, as well as weekday evenings after 5 pm. I also have availability throughout the day on Tuesday and Thursday before 1pm and after my class (3:30pm onward) I currently work as a server in Roger’s on Saturday evenings, but would like to move my focus to dog walking and pet care during the week days. I’m more then happy to work with you and your dogs routine while providing dependable, consistent care. I live in a safe and pet friendly townhome with plenty of grassy space behind my home and several parks nearby for walks and exercise. While I don’t currently have pets of my own due to being a full time student, I have cared for friends and family members pets in my home many times, including longer stays. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and enjoy regular walks and outdoor time.
About: I have grown up with all sorts of animals; ranging from cats and dogs to turtles and horses. If you have a pet I most likely have owned it and taken care of it before. Family friends, neighbors and friends of friends have always reached out to me to take care of their healthy and sick pets when going away. I am a recent college grad who is just trying to bring in a little extra cash while I figure out this adult thing on my own. I miss all my animals from back home so I would love to have time to babysit your babies and make them feel like they get to go on vacay too! I have always had pets and I like to make sure that they always have a clean, safe place to be. I will make sure your pet is always cleaned up after and has a fun time so you can come home to a happy pet and a clean house and yard.
About: I work from home most days of the week, so your dog or cat would have a buddy throughout the day! I have experience with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs. My own dog takes medications and so I am very familiar with giving medications and watching for any medical distress. I have one cat, so dogs must be good with cats/small animals. My dog, Pippin, loves to play and we go on multiple off leash walks throughout the day. I love animals and will love your pets like they are mine! My dog, Pippin, has separation anxiety so I understand how to comfort and care for dogs that get a little nervous without their owner. I worked in a veterinary clinic with dogs and cat. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sorts of sizes and ages and am relaxed and intuitive in possible stressful situations. I am very gentle with animals and believe positive reinforcement is the way to go to get the best results and to form a fun and trusting relationship. I am active and would love to take your high energy dogs out for a long run or hike in the area. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time, primarily from home. I have time to take walks any time through out the day and currently take my own dog on 2-3 walks a day, with a hike every other day. I have a very friendly dog who loves to play and relax. I take him on hikes and walks daily. I also have a dog-savvy cat.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Fayetteville is $19
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fayetteville
Emily was very accommodating to our situation. Wag was unpredictable and will never use them. Emily showed kindness, compassion, and sympathy towards my family and our fur babies! Will continue to utilize her service as she shows what it is to be a great sitter!
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!
Laura was the best. I have a dog who has a lot of anxiety territorial issues. And is also very dog aggressive. Laura saw her for the sweetheart she really is and treated her as such. Really reduced my stress my traveling to know I had someone my dog trusted and enjoyed seeing taking care of her. Definitely going to be a repeat customer any time I need to travel.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fayetteville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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 .

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.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
