About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I'm a proud pet mom to a 14-year-old senior cat, a 9-year-old Jack Russell Terrier, and a 2-year-old Bull Terrier mix, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for years, whether it's stopping by for walks, providing overnight care, or administering medications. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Before becoming a pet sitter, I spent 17 years as a property manager, where I became known as the "animal whisperer." I always kept treats behind my desk, and residents often joked that I could win over even the shyest dogs and cats. Whether maintenance needed to enter an apartment or a nervous pet just needed a little reassurance, I had a knack for making them feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away by providing dependable, loving care and plenty of attention. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply a calm companion, I'll make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved until you return. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide dependable, attentive care for your pets throughout the day. With my daughter entering school, I'll have even more dedicated time to focus on caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, playtime, medication, companionship, or overnight care, I'm able to accommodate a variety of schedules. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and personalized care while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in caring, reliable hands and treated like one of my own. I know that pets are happiest when they're able to stay in the comfort of their own home, and my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while you're away. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs your pet may have. I'll make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship—not just the basics. Whether your pet loves to play fetch, go on long walks, cuddle on the couch, or simply have someone nearby, I'll tailor my care to their personality. I'll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep things tidy, bring in packages if needed and make sure your home is secure before I leave. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I’m a dog mom with a sweet 4 year old basset hound. I know just how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your furry family member. I’m available for weekend dog sitting and can provide a safe, fun environment with my fully fenced in yard- perfect for playtime! My dog loves having a buddy around, and your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, and cuddles while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my routine since I already care for my own dog every day. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, playtime, and cuddles. I make sure dogs get the attention they need while sitting easily into my normal routine In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fully fenced in yard for safe outdoor play and my own friendly dog to keep your pup company. Dog will get regular walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I keep their feeding routine consistent and always make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home!

“Sarah was great, enthusiastically meeting our last minute need for walks and attention for our outside dog. She was happy to come out for a quick meet and greet too. She sent plenty of pictures showing how she cared for our dog. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have worked as a veterinary assistant for 15 years, both large and small animals. I have volunteered at animal shelters when I can. I have personally owned small dogs from 5 lbs, all the way up to large dogs up to 210lbs, cattle, horses, chickens, goats, pigs, geckos and Im sure I'm missing others. I am not afraid of any animal, I respect all walks. I have rescued and rehabed dogs and kittens. I enjoy pets so being able to meet new breeds and crosses is always something I have enjoyed. I also know how difficult it is to sometimes give your pets attention, so I'd like to offer my time to help others keep their kids happy and healthy. My Chihuahua had congestive heart failure so her medicine was very important to be given in a timely matter and I am able to handle medications. I enjoy training dogs, as well as horses. I find it rewarding to watch their minds grow. I am available as needed and I am able to make multiple visits within a day if needed. If a pet needed medication at certain times or fed, I would adjust my routine for the pet. I have my pets on a routine. I know how important it is to some of them to be fed at certain times or to go out. I care for the pets as if they were my own, and I understand that no two animals are alike in the care that they need or want. I try and make the animals not miss their owners too much. My large fenced in yard makes it a great place for dogs to stretch out and play. I am at home most of the time unless I am out running errands. Dogs are never left alone for very long as I am devoted to the pets care while they're with me. I have a large fenced in yard where your pets can play on their own or play with mine. They can sun bathe or fly around in a good game of chase, or I want that toy. If your dog needs alone time I have spare bedrooms where they can nap if need be. I read each dog as no two are the same.

About: I've taken care of dogs for family and friends for my whole life. I also worked as a dog groomer. I am trained to see emergencies in dogs and understand their body language and boundaries to keep us both safe. I am currently unemployed so I can be with your pets at any time. I do have pets myself I will be checking in on! I can crate your dog if needed, keep them leashed or in your yard. Same with cats. I'll work with you and the animal to keep them safe and happy.

About: I raised my dog Rocky from when he was a puppy, so I’m experienced in caring for pets of all ages. I’ve pet sit many times before learning about Rover. Every pet is different, and I’m prepared to do my best to meet your pet’s individual needs. I believe a routine is incredibly beneficial to pet care, which is why Rocky is part of my routine. If your pet is staying with me they will be feed and walked first thing in the morning. Potty breaks throughout the day for pets with more frequent needs. Then second feeding and walk at approximately 6:30 pm. If I’m sitting at your place, if your pet has its own routine we will follow it, if not I will adopt a routine based on the environment. Previously, my house was a 3 dog 3 cat house. After some relationship changes, it’s just me and Rocky. Rocky is completely submissive, although he’s a Goldmation he very much embodies golden retriever energy, and gets along with pets of all shapes and sizes (like I said, 3 cats) When sitting at your house you can be sure that both your home and pets will be cared for. Cleaning is one of my favorite activities, so you might find your house is even a bit more tidy than you left it. And Rocky is very low maintenance and stays home when I pet sit, meaning that if you want me to spend as much time at your place as possible, I can do that.

My goal is to give you absolute peace of mind by providing your furry family members with the highest level of attentive, personalized care, keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. One of the biggest advantages that offer is my highly flexible schedule. Because I manage my own professional workload with a great deal of independence, my time is exceptionally adaptable. I am not confined to a rigid 9-5 office environment, which means your pet will never be an afterthought! I am able to dedicate significant blocks of time throughout the day to supervising, walking, and playing with your fur baby. You can rest easy knowing they will receive frequent potty breaks, constant companionship, and individualized attention. I can't wait to meet your fur baby and become their favorite home-away-from-home! Please feel free to reach out with any questions to schedule a meet-and-greet. I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of various shapes, sizes and personalities. From energetic puppies/cats who need consistent routine and positive reinforcement to general seniors who require a softer touch and careful medication management. I've managed it all. I am incredibly intuitive when it comes to animal behavior, ensuring your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and understood from the moment we meet.

“Allison was a great communicator and did an excellent job with our dogs and our home. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a caring and competent animal lover to love your pets while you’re away!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness. Also have experience with chickens, goats, and pigs and how dogs interact with changes in their environment. I’m free most days, everything that I need to do is on my computer and can be done anytime and anywhere. I’m flexible and can fit into most clients’ schedule. I let them out when they want out, play when they want to play, and clean up any mess so that the client comes back to a just as clean or cleaner house and pets

“Abby was great and Maisy loved her! Normally she has separation anxiety and I don’t even think she missed us! She definitely kept her busy while we left our campsite at Catherine’s Landing to go zip lining. Plus, she was available at the last minute and on a holiday! We camp here a lot and will definitely use her again so we don’t have to leave Baby Maisy at camp alone.”

About: Hello! I am Claire, 28, and I am a Certified Veterinary Nurse with experience in clinics and a love of taking care of and learning about animals of all varieties. I have three dogs, all of which get walks daily. I make changes to my home and routine to better suit the needs of my elderly pug, Milo. All pets are family, I would never let grandma go a minute without care, consideration, and comfort. Their lives are far too precious and too short to be placed at the end of the priority list.

“Cash and I so thankful for Ashley! She is consistent and communicates quickly. I know I can count on her to show up and know my pup is in great hands!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of them myself in house basically my whole life. I love cuddling with my dogs and don't mind them laying beside me on furniture. I have trained lots of puppies potty duties and crate training. I have had a bunch of senior dogs. I am a nurse by trade, so if your fur baby needs meds, I am definitely the one who can give it to them! I can't wait to meet your baby! I am currently retired nurse who stays home basically all the time. If I do have to leave, it is usually only for a couple of hours. I do not have a fully fenced yard, but I do have a fenced area behind the house that I can put the fur babies in to do their business and get some exercise. If they do not need to be contained, I have 5 acres that they can run and play.

“Sherri is dependable, knowledgeable and compassionate. I know my babies are in loving hands.❤️”

I treat my furry friends like children, and I’m sure you’ll want the same for yours!

About: Hello! I’m Tara, and animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, and horses, and I competed in eventing through my mid-twenties—so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My significant other, Mike, and I work together as a team to provide attentive, 1:1 in-home boarding with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to accommodate special routines and needs (senior care, medications, shy/anxious pups, or high-energy dogs who need extra play and structure). Tell me what helps your dog feel safest and happiest, and we’ll tailor their care to match. I work in childcare part time and Mike is a gig worker with a very flexible schedule. We work together to give your dog the benefit of in person care. Regular business hours are preferred but not mandatory.

About: I have 15+ years of experience working as a pet sitter and 3 years as an animal caretaker in a veterinary hospital. I love caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, and make it a priority to keep owners updated on how their pets are doing while in my care. I can also look after elderly and special needs dogs and I'm experienced with various medications. I love going on walks, jogs, and hikes and enjoy having a dog companion with me.

About: Registered veterinary nurse with over 20+ years caring for animals, 12+ in a professional and clinical setting. I have worked in small animal practices as well as Emergency/ICU and have medical experience with species of all kinds! I am a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator with AKC, and I am also licensed with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission as a wildlife rehabilitator (since 2019) Aside from working with native wildlife, I have personally owned a variety of pocket pets and exotic animals throughout the years and would be comfortable providing care for additional animal species, as needed! I am certified to teach canine and feline CPR & First Aid both to the public and to veterinary professionals (offered as approved RACE CE credit), and I am certified with FEMA through their “Animals in Disaster” preparedness course. I am proficient not only in identifying and interpreting canine and feline behavior (as well as other species), but I also have the advantage of medical insight. I often will notice things about your pet that perhaps you haven’t even noticed yet, or maybe didn’t realize was a concern. I was blessed with good intuition, and this has aided me greatly in my career with animals! Through years of working emergency medicine, I have become highly effective in triage methods and will know immediately what to do and how quickly to do it, should your pet encounter any type of emergency (trauma, toxicity, snake bite, heat stroke, neurological incident, etc.) I am comfortable administering medications through PO, SQ, IM, and IV routes, as needed or directed by a veterinarian. I am comfortable manually expressing bladders in both dogs and cats, and providing ambulatory support for pets needing assistance. Some of my clients wear doggy diapers and I am comfortable managing those, as well. I can provide basic wound care, bandage care, and give extra attention to pets needing any type of dietary assistance. My special skill in clinic was getting sick pets to eat, I am very good at it! In addition to the medical aspect, I also strive to support a healthy emotional environment. I will provide adequate and reasonable boundaries to ensure your pet is being respected, but also not letting them take advantage of the “new person!” I’m not going to overload them with treats or feed them extra just because they’re giving me the cute puppy eyes! If your pet is not allowed on the couch at home or when you’re away, I won’t allow that either. I truly understand the full-circle effects of how we treat our pets and strive to maintain high expectations when I’m responsible for any animals care. I am an open highway as far as communication goes and am happy to meet to needs and expectations for each client and family, custom to each pet. My schedule is very flexible. I took a break from working in a hospital setting in 2021 to complete my Bachelor's degree. Since then I have primarily worked from home but I maintain a current CVT license with the Arkansas Veterinary Medical Board. Working from home allows me the ability to accommodate boarding requests both in my home, or in yours. I can accommodate consistent and reliable walks or check-in visits throughout the week, and even last-minute requests. Your pets will be treated as part of the family whether in my home, or in yours! They will get extra love and attention and be pampered and played with constantly. I enjoy taking pictures and videos of your pet, and will check in often regarding their care! House Sitting: House sitting services are offered in your home, with your pets. I can accommodate exotic animals and small pocket pets, in addition to cats, dogs, and horses. There is not much I cannot care for! Offering all the amenities of in-home doggie daycare, house sitting provides the comforts of home with the assurance of a highly trained veterinary professional providing around-the-clock care. In addition to being attentive to your furry-family members needs, I will care for your home as if it is my own. I will clean, check mail, collect packages, water plants, etc. so when you get home, you will have nothing left to worry about except enjoying time with your fur baby! Prior to my departure I will clean thoroughly and make sure your home is in tip-top shape for your arrival! I work from home and am able to take my work with me, which makes my schedule very flexible! Holidays and weekends are flexible, as well. Last minute requests? No problem! Safety is my top priority. Pets will be diligently monitored. Doors will be kept shut, gates will be secured, and dangerous items will be kept out of reach. Your home will be cared for as if it was my own using the Girl Scout Code of, “leaving it better than you found it” as the core principle for my services. :)
