About: Hi there! I'm thrilled you're visiting my profile. As a lifelong animal lover, I know firsthand that our pets aren't just animals-they are cherished members of the family. 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.

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 working remotely 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.

About: I am an avid pet lover, having grown up around dogs of all sizes from mastiffs to tiny chihuahuas. I personally have a lot of experience with cats, dog of all sizes, reptiles, rodents and livestock. Our house has a large sized back yard great for running around, playing and excersise. I CAN ACCOMMODATE FOR LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS, LATE PICKUP/DROPOFF, AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU MAY NEED. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet pets. Open availability to care for any animals during all seasons of the year, I am happy to accept last minute requests,late pickup and dropoff as well. I have a fenced yard, and individual playpens. Pets are welcome to roam freely within the house after an initial decompression period. We use pet gates, long leads, and leashes for the safety of all pets in the home. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at any time

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: Of course I love animals and have grown up with a house full of multiple cats and dogs. I have been pet sitting for my military coworkers/friends for 7 years now and decided to go ahead and use Rover to service other people now that I have plenty of free time. As of now I am going through a hiatus before starting my new job in January 2022 so I have the luxury to serve you by providing the best service for your pets by being attentive and caring. I have access to a large fenced in yard and a large dog house that is connected. I also have a large crate if preferred (doubt it). I am accepting of letting the dog stay indoors if it is house trained/indoor dog.

“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.

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: Hey there! I’m an experienced dog walker, and animal shelter volunteer who loves keeping pets happy and safe. I’ve cared for everything from tiny kittens and small pups to the biggest, high-energy dogs. Whether it’s a quick afternoon walk or a cozy overnight stay, your furry friend is in great hands with me! I take your specific, detailed care instructions seriously. No routine or rule is ever overlooked! From strict feeding times and meds to fetch in the backyard, I make sure your pet gets the exact care they need and all the love they deserve while you're away. I am a stay-at-home mama of two little but now have the opportunity to earn additional income through activities I genuinely enjoy. Prior to relocating, I gained experience in pet sitting, volunteering at animal shelters, dog walking, and fostering various animals. With your detailed care instructions that will be followed precisely and excellent care provided for your pet, you can be confident that your pet will feel safe.

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: 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

About: Animals, specifically dogs and cats, have always been a key part of my life. I have a black lab of my own named Indy and she is my pride and joy. There are also several other dogs and cats within my inner circle that I absolutely adore. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your baby, and I would treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable and comfortable following even the most elaborate routine, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, recovery restrictions, or lots of extra cuddles. I also have several close friends and family members who work in veterinary medicine, including my cousin who is currently in her third year of veterinary school and is always just a phone call away. My schedule is extremely flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs rather than expecting their routine to fit around mine. Pets in my home will be treated just like my own—with lots of love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! The dogs in my home are very friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while they’re with me. Pets are welcome on the furniture and beds in my home, especially if that’s what they’re used to at home. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated at certain times, I also have a kennel available and am happy to follow their normal routine.

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.

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.
