“Darcy did a phenomenal job caring for my senior kitty with some newer and more complex care needs. So thankful for the attention to detail that she took! Would absolutely recommend”
“Amanda was great! My social cat really enjoyed playing with her and hanging out with her! She also left the house spotless and with washed sheets which was extremely helpful so that we could crawl into bed right when we got home from our trip!”
“Abigail was an amazing sitter for our critter crew! She was kind and responsive, was attentive to details and especially patient with our old chocolate lab who has several health issues, and younger doodle who has some behavioral preferences we’re still learning! 🙏❤️ We so appreciate her taking such good care of everyone, and would love to have her back!!”
“We are SO grateful for Jaxton! He watched our two boys the week of Thanksgiving while we were out of town, and he was absolutely phenomenal. He sent us updates and photos every day, and even brushed our dogs with the shedding tool we left in their bag—without us ever asking. He took such thoughtful care of our home and treated our pups like they were his own. If you’re looking for someone to trust with your pets and your home, Jaxton is the one. We cannot recommend him enough. Thank you, Jaxton! We appreciate you so much!”
“Lakshmi has taken excellent care of our energetic fur baby. She is a great communicator and always very professional. After one recent stay, our dog suddenly was walking better on leash thanks to Lakshmi’s knowledge and skills. Just wow!!!”
“Amy did an absolutely fantastic job house sitting for our crew of three. She is the best and I would not hesitate to have her sit for our babies any time. We love her and so do our pets.”
“Ian was a life saver! He took our request last minute for a holiday weekend. He took great care of our pup and sent frequent updates and pictures! Will for sure be using him again!”
“Lacy is truly amazing!! She is our go to regular sitter for our cat, and we always are extremely pleased with her and how well she cares for our baby, but this most recent time she truly went above and beyond for us. We got stranded in our travels because of the snow storm and she not only was able to stay with her for extra days, but the hvac unit also went out and our house lost heat! The temps dropped dangerously low and she helped us to troubleshoot the system for HOURS! Unfortunately the problem had to do with something outside our control and we needed to find an HVAC technician who could solve it. She stayed with our cat despite the cold and helped the hvac technician gain access to the house, answering questions as they arose, and worked with him until everything was fixed! She also made sure to drop the faucets and do everything she could to keep the house warm. She not only cared for our cat but she also saved our house from freezing pipes! We could not be more thankful for her and the amazing person she is!! People like her are rare and choosing her to care for your pets is truly a blessing! Thank you so much, Lacy!!”
“Allison is fantastic! She was great with our dogs and even won the affection of our dog who does not enjoy making new friends. We so appreciated her staying with our dogs on short notice.”
About: I sincerely love animals and understand how hard it can be to be away from your pet. My intention is to provide loving care to your pet so that you can feel peace of mind while you are away. My dad is a veterinarian and I grew up being around all sorts of animals. I have worked at a few different animal hospitals and spent several years at a dog daycare, pet-sitting off and on over the years. For a long time I had two of the greatest canine companions, Windy (a Jack Russel) and Luna (corgi mix). They have sinced passed, and so I really appreciate getting a chance to be around other doggos. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am willing to do drop ins, walks, and overnight stays (at your home, I have a territorial cat at my home :)). My schedule is very open and flexible. I do not have any other jobs currently and am utilizing my savings until I find an income that aligns with my personality and values. I would love to do pet care full time. I am able to care for your pets at your home. I will not take any pets to my home because it is a small apartment and my cat has strong boundaries :) I have a fairly open schedule and am most likely able to accommodate whatever needs you have, whether it's overnight stays, drop-in visits, walks, etc! I'm open to communicate and figure out what works best for you and your pet.
About: I’ve had over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, a sweet Cocker Spaniel who I miss dearly every day. He taught me so much about patience, consistency, and really understanding what our pets need at every stage of life. I also have one dog now, Peanut—he’s a goofy ball of love and life! He’s full of energy, so I definitely know what it’s like to care for high-energy pups and make sure they get the structure, play, and attention they need. Along with my own pets, I’ve house and dog sat for several families (and can absolutely provide references!). I’ve cared for pets anywhere from a single day or overnight to about 2½ weeks while families were traveling. I’ve worked with both dogs and cats, given medications when needed, and always do my best to stick closely to their normal routines. I know from my own fur babies how important that consistency is—it really helps keep them calm, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also treat your home with care by watering plants and keeping things tidy, so you can come back relaxed and stress-free. What really sets me apart is how attentive I am to each pet’s personality. Whether they’re shy, anxious, or full of energy, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I follow instructions closely, communicate clearly, and I LOVE sending updates and pictures so you can see how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. At the end of the day, I just genuinely love animals and treat them like they’re my own. Hi there! I'm Rachel, and I'd love to care for your pets this summer! During the school year, I work as a substitute teacher for the Little Rock School District, but I'm off for the summer and have a much more flexible schedule. In the fall, I'll be starting school, so I'm looking forward to spending my summer doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals! Whether your furry family member needs drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention while you're away, I'd be honored to help. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I'll care for them as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members this summer! When I’m caring for your pet in your home, my biggest goal is to keep everything feeling as normal and comfortable for them as possible. I know from my own experience how important routines are, so I stick closely to whatever you already have in place-feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, all of it. I really try to meet each pet where they are. If they’re high-energy, we’ll play and get that energy out. If they’re more shy or anxious, I’ll go slow and give them space while still being a calm, comforting presence. I want them to feel safe and cared for, not stressed while you’re away. I’m also very mindful of your home- I keep things clean, stay on top of litter boxes or any messes, and can help with things like watering plants. I treat your space with respect so you can come home and feel relaxed. If I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll be treated like family. I keep a clean, safe environment and make sure they’re supervised, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention (and love!). And I’m big on communication- I’ll send updates and pictures so you can see how your pet is doing and feel at ease while you’re away.
About: Welcome to my Rover! I’m 26 years old and a lifelong animal lover. Growing up, I had the most amazing boxer rescue named Duke, and through my teenage years and young adulthood another rescue Munson, who was a black lab/pit bull mix. Currently mom to two fur babies Dexter and Koda, a black cat and a tuxedo cat. Aside from my primary occupation, I’m a very active person and love being outside. I’m a lifelong animal shelter volunteer and have worked with animals from newborn to elderly, perfect health to less than, anxiety, etc. I understand the obligations of everyday pet parents and am more than happy to meet and provide top tier care and support for your fur babies! I am currently working out a full-time schedule as I work remotely and am offering short-term care for the time being. All drop-ins, walks, and sittings will be accepted case by case. Will update when I move to a more regular schedule! The trust required to invite a sitter into your home and around your fur babies is paramount, and as a professional, your home becomes my office and will be treated with the utmost respect. I tend to leave a home cleaner than I found it, and follow instructions to a T, so please do not hesitate to let me know how I can best care for your fur babies and your home while I'm in service!
“Ashleigh was a great sitter. She was very flexible and communicated throughout the entire week stay. She asked questions consistently when she needed something and kept me up to date on my dogs!”
“Maddie was great with my dog. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her after our first meet up. It is very clear how much she loves animals. She took great care of Stanley and all of my additional requests while she was at my house. I am so grateful for her, and would trust her with any pets!”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Growing up with a dog by my side taught me how to understand, care for, and connect with them in a way that feels completely natural. Being around dogs isn't just something I do—it's something I've known my whole life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, learning their unique personalities, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Every dog deserves care that feels like home, and that's exactly what I strive to provide. I currently work Monday-Friday (8am-5pm). I can take care of pets after 5pm and on the weekends. We can arrange timing if needed. Thank you! I have a very spacious loft downtown I can have them in. Also have space for kennels if needed. Lots of parks near by and sidewalks to walk them. I’m also willing to take care of them at the clients residents as well. Whatever is needed for the job at hand!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Little Rock is $40

Jaxton was an amazing dog sitter! He came in clutch for me at the very last minute, and I’m so grateful he was available. He was super communicative, reliable, and made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Jaxton to anyone looking for a great dog sitter, and I’ll absolutely be using his services again!
Allison went above and beyond caring for our 2 fur babies!!! One got very ill and she cleaned up after him and graciously took him to the vet to have him checked out after I arranged an appointment. She was so caring and kind to them. They loved her. We found a friend for life!
Allison did a great job taking care of my two Newfoundlands. Communication was excellent throughout my trip, and when I came home, they were very happy to see me but also seemed completely relaxed and well cared for, almost like they hadn’t missed me at all. That says a lot about the care she provided. Overall, I’m very happy with the job she did taking care of my girls.
Tabitha did an outstanding job with all of our pets. She was great at keeping us informed about everything and also sent pictures of the dogs playing throughout the 2 weeks. Will definitely be calling on Tabitha again when we are leaving the area for a while. Thank you Tabitha!
We so appreciate Darcy taking care of our senior dog, Charlee. We were on a cruise without service but she kept updated and willing to use other forms of communication if needed. We came home to a nice note and some cute poloroids to keep of Charlee. We felt so comfortable and able to relax knowing he was in great hands. Thanks again, Darcy.

FAQs for House Sitting - Little Rock
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Little Rock on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 346 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Little Rock. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Little Rock walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Little Rock maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Little Rock choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Little Rock. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
