Dog Walkers in Jacksonport, AR

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, structure, and attention I bring to every animal I look after. I take a lot of pride in providing excellent care for my own pets, and I treat every animal in my care with that same level of love and responsibility. I’ve had dogs of my own for over 4 years, and even before that, I was trusted to care for multiple dogs belonging to friends and family. Through that experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, safety, and intentional care are for keeping pets happy and stress-free. I provide a structured, safe environment while still making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and understood. I also have experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable working with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a huge part of my daily life. My routine truly revolves around my animals. I already structure my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Because of that, adding pet care for others fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give, so I’m able to be very present and intentional with every pet I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule, providing exercise, or just giving them extra love and attention, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I live in a house with two dogs of my own and about 2 cleared acres, giving plenty of space for safe, supervised outdoor time. While my property isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful about safety and always use leashes, harnesses, or close supervision. My neighborhood is also great for walks, and I have a park nearby that I love taking dogs to for extra exercise and enrichment. I’m fully equipped with supplies like leashes, harnesses, crates, and bowls, so I can easily meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respect, consistency, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I’m very mindful of your space and always aim to leave your home even better than I found it. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I grew up with plenty of cats and dogs in and outside the home. At 12, I started a "business" dog walking and learning how to give shots to a diabetic cat. For a few years I also worked with 4Pawed Redemption, a veteran-run non-profit designed to help rehome military family pets. I also successfully trained my own pup to qualify as a service animal to help a friend in need, but care doesn't stop with dogs! I've also helped with ferrets, snakes, tortoises and parakeets before-just please no tarantulas! Hope you find the help you're looking for :) Currently working part-time before going to college in August, but I have plenty of time to work around nearly any schedule within my range, and with most addresses in Batesville I can even visit the local dog park! I always ask up front about any allergies or sensitivities your pet might have, in addition to what training they have gone through and their everyday personality. By knowing how they usually act, I'm better able to help them with any signs of nervousness or anxiety and adjust their care accordingly, so it's not just about food and water with me :)

“Lisa is perfect ! On time. My two dogs ( Great Pyrenees and golden retriever) love her and respond to her. She knows how to calm my eager, energetic golden down so she can walk and not pull.”

Although I currently don’t have any pets of my own due to my busy schedule, I have a deep love for animals and am eager to share that with your furry friends. I am committed to providing your home and pets with the utmost respect and safety. My goal is to offer your beloved pets not only care and affection but also a safe and nurturing environment. I look forward to using my time with your fur baby to both love and learn, ensuring they receive the best possible care while you're away. Hello! My name is Marsha, and I’m delighted to introduce myself as a new sitter on Rover. I’m currently a full-time Doctoral degree student in the NEA area, with work Monday through Friday and weekends dedicated to catching up on studies. Because the demands of my program make a traditional job challenging, I’m excited to use this platform to supplement my income while indulging my love for animals. Although I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment due my beloved Dexter passing away after 17.5 years, my passion for animals drives me to offer the best care to your furry companions. I am committed to providing your home and pets with the highest level of respect, safety, and affection. I’m available for pet sitting most afternoons and evenings, and I can’t wait to spend quality time with your fur baby, ensuring they receive all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. To provide exceptional care for pets in you' homes, I start by understanding your furbabies routines and needs through an initial consultation and written instructions. I will stick to their regular schedule for feeding and exercise, while ensuring their environment is safe and comfortable. Maintain cleanliness and respect the client’s property, and be vigilant about the pet’s health, noting any changes and administering medications if needed. I also like to communicate regularly with updates and be prepared for emergencies with contact details and a clear plan. My attention to these details will ensure both your fur baby and your home are well cared for while you’re on duty. I am okay with being recorded in home if you feel more comfortable have access to view your fur babies safety as long as private areas from the bathroom have no recording devices. I truly just want to give you the best experience that I can.

“Five star dog walker. I needed a dog walker for 2 weeks on short notice. Ellen did a great job. Dependable & reliable. I am not expert on using the Rover app, & did not realize that I forgot to book the second week. Ellen noticed this and reached out to see if I needed her to walk my dog that day. She was a life saver for helping us with our dog on such short notice. Book her, especially if you live on the Island.”
