“We are so glad we found Darcy! They took detailed notes during our meet-and-greet (always a good sign), and sent us plenty of pictures and updates each day! Darcy was very attentive to both our pets and our home. The pets seemed to love them too, warming up immediately and giving generous cuddles while we were gone! We will definitely be booking again! 😊”
“First time using rover and I had a lot of hesitations. I met with Amanda and knew instantly she’d be a great fit. She was reliable and was available any time I messaged with her. My home was found just as we left it. Amanda will be our go to!”
“We could not have asked for a better petsitter than Lakshmi! She’s as good as they come. We returned home to a very happy and relaxed cat after Lakshmi stayed in our home with her for four nights. When she came over to get the lay of the land, she asked detail-oriented questions and took notes, which made us confident she’d do a good job. When we were away, we received frequent, detailed, fun updates, and it was clear that Lakshmi is an excellent and experienced caretaker and an enthusiastic animal lover. She treated Pip with lots of love and consideration, and we loved seeing the daily photos and videos of their time together. She was also a great houseguest and left our apartment spotless. We’ve had several negative experiences with Rovers in the past, but I’d confidently recommend Lakshmi to anyone. We will certainly hire her again!”
“Amy was great! This was our first time using Rover. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. Our home was exactly as we left it and our boy was well taken care of! Thank you Amy!!”
About: I love animals and have been caring for them my entire life! I've worked with animals professionally and completed 2 semesters of vet tech schooling. I love chihuahuas and great danes and everything in between. I can assist with training, giving meds, and caring for sick babies as well. I know how important they are to you and your family. I would love the chance to get to know, love, and care for them. I can send pictures to update you throughout their time with me. I am not currently working a conventional job so I am pretty much available any day and for most time slots. I can spend as much time with your pet as needed. I will come to your home where your pet is most comfortable and let them continue with their regular routine as closely as possibly without much deviation.
“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!”
“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!!”
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.
“Sadie and Nicole did very well together. Nicole kept us updated and left us a note so that was very helpful. We were comfortable the whole time we were gone and did not worry about if Sadie was getting good care. We highly recommend Nicole for a pet sitter.”
“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!”
About: I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for friends and friends-of-friends around the area, with most of my clients finding me through word of mouth. Apparently, the dogs have been giving me five stars, so I figured it was time to officially join Rover! 🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible! I typically start work around 9–10 AM and have the ability to work remotely for a couple of hours during the day, but I do need to be physically at work from 3–7 PM. This gives me flexibility for morning and midday walks, drop-ins, and plenty of time for pet care outside of those hours. I’m happy to care for pets wherever they’re most comfortable! Whether that’s walks and adventures outside, playtime at home, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away.
“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 have several years of experience pet sitting dogs and cats for family friends, neighbors, and coworkers, and I also spent over a year working as a veterinary assistant. I have worked hands-on with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. I'm comfortable caring for nervous or fearful pets, high-energy dogs, and animals that require extra patience or careful handling. I also have extensive experience administering medications and following detailed medical and care instructions. I now work as a wildlife researcher and have additional professional experience with animal handling, behavior, and husbandry across a wide variety of species. I'm comfortable reading behavior and adjusting my approach to the individual animal. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, senior, or just has a very particular routine, I'm happy to work with their needs and make sure they are comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the pet in my care! While I do have daily obligations that may take me away for parts of the day, I have plenty of availability for walks, playtime, meals, and lots of attention throughout the day. I provide care in your pet’s home, where they can remain comfortable with their normal environment and routine. I’m happy to provide multiple walks per day, plenty of playtime and attention, and meals, snacks, and medications according to their regular schedule. I will always follow care instructions closely and adjust my approach to your pet’s individual needs and personality.

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!

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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.
