About: I’ve loved dogs forever but didn’t started caring for any until we got our first family dog when I was about 6 years old. Since then, I’ve pet sat for neighbors, friends, and family; but I’m excited to expand my horizons! I have class M, W, F in the am, but other than that my schedule it totally flexible! Other than the occasional trip home to Texas, I am pretty much always available. My roommate has one female dog that is neutered and crate trained. I have a fenced in balcony with turf and a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. I would love to take your dog(s) on fun long walks to the park or even in the trails down by my house.
About: I’ve had 2 dogs for all of my life until very recently! I’ve cared for a senior dog, a service dog, and an active german shepherd / labrador mix who can walk for hours!!! I am genuinely always looking to hang out and care for other’s dogs as I know how much MY dogs love attention, love, and care :) My apartment is a one bedroom apartment but I have boarded other dogs there before, my home is their home!!! As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)
“Olivia took amazing care of our dog, Max, while we were in town visiting our kids at college. She sent multiple photos and videos each day, as well as texted and kept us updated on how he was doing.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

95% of sitters in Locke can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Locke home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Locke.

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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
