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!

I work in education so I have really flexible summers with lots of time to care for your dog! My schedule allows me to come and go as I please so I’m available to go on walks and play with the dog as much as needed! My apartment is super dog-friendly! I’m happy to have your dog on the couches and they can sleep on the bed! I have access to a lot of green space right by my apartment and plenty of safe-walking areas!
About: I have yet to meet a pet I dont like! I have two cats and a senior dog. They are my world! Animals of all shapes and sizes are my passion and I love to learn about them all! Even the scaley ones! 🦎 I get to choose my own schedule so I can spend plenty of time with your pets! I travel all around north west Arkansas! Dog walking overnight sitting you name it! I am good at following directions and will take the best care of your babies with plenty of updates and pictures. I love notes and I treat all babies like my own, with love and respect.
“Jessica is absolutely fantastic! She was able to watch my dog on short notice and took exceptional care of him!!! She was patient with me when I was slightly panicking because I was out of state and the person who was supposed to watch him cancelled. She made sure I didn’t have to worry about my dog and I knew he would be cared for properly. Will definitely be booking again!”
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’ve worked with dogs for over a decade. I’ve worked for a few doggy daycares, one that I was with for 13 years. I truly love dogs. I have two dogs myself, Hollyhock and Lemonhope and they are my world. I’m looking to start walking dogs around the area. I’m also an artist and my main focus is usually doggie related art! Currently working part time, and just looking to walk some puppers in my free time! On Wednesday-Friday I’m busy during the day BUT I can do evening walks! The rest of my days are pretty much open! I can get access to extra collars, leashes and harnesses for walking however it would be easier if you provided your own as different dogs wear different sizes.
“Grace was a great sitter.Came every day and made sure the cats had food in their bowls and took care of litter box.She showed love to them just like her own cats.Sent pictures to me every day and said how they were doing. Will highly recommend her and use her the next time I travel.”
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’ve cared for cats and dogs through drop-in visits and overnight stays in their homes. During visits, I follow the owner’s instructions for potty breaks, food, water, and making sure everything is secure before I leave. I’ve also helped my mom care for pets booked through Rover when she needed an extra hand. As a residential cleaner, I’m used to being trusted in people’s homes and paying attention to the details that matter to them. I’d love to learn your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I work as an independent delivery driver and residential cleaner, which gives me flexibility to plan pet care around my existing commitments. I’m interested in walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding. I’ll keep my availability updated and only accept bookings when I can give your pet the time and care they need. I live with my partner in a townhome complex without a fenced yard, so dogs in my care would go outside on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the complex. If your dog is comfortable in the car and you’re happy for me to take them, we can also visit walking spots around Bentonville. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, confirm their care needs before booking, and send updates while you’re away. For care in your home, I make sure doors and gates are secure before I leave.
“Jessica was great with my fur babies! She made sure to take pictures and messaged me whenever my pit chewed something up, she even cleaned the mess so I didn’t come home to a messy house. I cannot say enough about Jessica, I will definitely use her again!”
About: I have a remarkable talent for connecting with both dogs and cats, a skill that comes from my deep understanding of their unique personalities and needs. My patience and empathy shine through in every interaction, allowing me to build trust with even the most timid animals. With dogs, I excel at training and behavior modification, using positive reinforcement techniques that create a fun and encouraging atmosphere. Your keen observation skills help you recognize subtle cues, enabling you to communicate effectively and forge strong bonds. Whether it’s teaching a puppy to sit or helping a rescue dog overcome fear, your dedication and expertise make a real difference. When it comes to cats, my intuitive nature allows you to understand their more nuanced behaviors. You know how to create a safe, inviting environment that encourages them to come out of their shells. My ability to read their body language helps you foster trust, making even the most aloof cats warm up to you. Overall, my skills with dogs and cats highlight not just your knowledge but your genuine love for animals. You have a special gift for nurturing their well-being and happiness, creating a harmonious space where they can thrive. I am free most weeks and travel some weekends fo my Job. I work in the music industry so my schedule is very flexible month to month. I am a very loving and caring person when it comes to my pets. My dog Gigi is the center of my world and I love her very much and love to make sure she is fed well with organic food as well as very active outside with walks and playing frisbee in the park or going on hikes.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gentry
Kirsten was awesome. We had lost our prior sitter, and I was worried about finding someone new. We have two cats and a large dog, all seniors, and two need medications - including eye drops for one of the cats. Our cats don’t like other people and one is quite curmudgeonly, but they took to Kirsten amazingly well. She was prompt and dependable and always sent pictures that showed us how well the kids were doing. That gave us real peace of mind. She went above and beyond, even taking out the trash without being asked. She is conscientious and trustworthy, and we will absolutely go back to her whenever we need a sitter. We have put vacations off because we didn’t have a sitter we felt comfortable with. Thanks to Kirsten, I think we have some long weekends away ahead of us. Finding someone you trust with your pets is a big deal, and we’re so glad we found her. Book Kirsten and you will not be disappointed!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.

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 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.
