“My babies were so well cared for while I was away on a short trip! Allison was a great communicator, quickly formed a bond with my cats, and went above and beyond what was asked of her. She will be the first person I call for my next trip. I felt relaxed and reassured that my babies were safe and happy. Thank you Allison!”

“We’ve worked with Faith multiple times, and she’s absolutely amazing! Her care and service always go above and beyond. With our 3 dogs and 2 cats, things can get a little chaotic, but Faith has a special way of keeping them calm and happy. We couldn’t be happier with her help!”

“Awesome dog sitter. Highly recommended. Moriah is very professional prompt and trustworthy. Treated my dogs as if they were her own. Easy to communicate with and friendly. A+++++ Will definitely be using again.”

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.
“Sarah is an excellent pet sitter for our two precious fur babies! She came on time daily and gave her all each visit with loving care. We couldn’t have taken our 6 day vacation without her. It was a great relief to check in daily to see our pups being cared for with such loving kindness. Thank you Sarah! We will definitely request your services again!”

“Sharon has been taking care of my 15-year-old baby girl, miniature, Australian Shepherd, for the past week and probably stay there at least another week. I fell and broke my neck so I have been in the hospital at rehab and I don’t have anybody who lives with me, or can come over to take care of, I’ve always had good luck with Rover.com in California, Missouri and Arkansas. Karen has been great. She has my scheduled with me as I am through the hospital and different doctors and now rehab with a smile on face. I can tell she’s been really good to Nelly and Nelly likes her a lot by the smile on Nelly‘s face in the pictures. I will highly recommend any type of work to do with animals. You can call me at 5012639091 if you want to talk further about her abilities.”

About: I'm a huge dog lover! I've had a dog since I was 8 years old and have always had one around me. I'm kind of a dog whisperer at this point; sometimes I can communicate with them if I'm around them long enough. :) I don't have an issue with any kind of dogs, big or small. I'm pretty much flexible when it comes down to my weekly schedule. I work for Uber/Lyft five or six days a week, but I'm more than happy to work around to help you with your schedule. I don't mind any kind of dog or cat roaming around. Just let me know ahead of time if there's anything I should be aware of, such as "might nibble on a hand" or "still learning how to go potty" or anything like that.
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. :)

About: I have had the privilege of owning pets of all kinds throughout my life and have enjoyed and learned from each as I considered each one a member of my family. With that, I understand that pets deserve respect as a living breathing creature and should be treated with the same dignity that you would give them. I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, pigs, cows, goats, chickens, fish, lizards, ducks, turkeys, and several others. I just enjoy animals overall and would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members! I work part time and attend college classes but I have plenty of flexibility and free time to ensure the proper care of your pets! I am very active and do not mind walking dogs to get that necessary exercise or just acting as a companion so they feel loved. As my two mini long haired dachshunds rule my household, I would need to watch your pets in your home or walk them around your neighborhood. I understand the trust it takes to allow someone into your home and your pets environment, but I want to ensure that your pets (and you) feel comfortable with any arrangement.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 request a 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 Meet & Greet .
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.
