“Patsy has been very flexible with recent changes of schedule for walking our dog and we are so appreciative of this. Updates and quick communication is always nice to have!”

“Amanda is far and away the best experience I've had with Rover. She continues to deliver, my pups love her, and I am going to continue booking with her. If you need walks, sitting, or anything else she offers - you can't go wrong with Amanda.”

About: Hey I’m Hannah! My Experience - From the time I was born I was raised with animals.Throughout the years, I've owned 6 different dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits, 7 ducks, 12 chickens, 1 beta fish and 1 hamster. My Dog - I rescued a Yorkie from a puppy mill in July of 2018. I named her Franky and we've been inseperable since! My Approach - I prefer to use positive reinforcement and treats when training a dog to obey commands. I can give your pet all of the pets and cuddles but can also respect their space if they’re more independent. I am flexible with pet care, but would prefer to have at least three days notice to work around my schedule. I am able to do local services as well as services within the same state. If I must travel for overnight services, I would like at least a week notice. I do not currently offer daycare or sitting within my home, but I am available to come to you in the event that you book with me!
About: Hey there! We’re Jasmine & Gavin — a reliable, pet-loving duo offering thoughtful, hands-on care for your furry family. I (Jasmine) have experience as a kennel tech, and Gavin’s a lifelong dog lover with a soft spot for boxers. Together, we bring the best of both worlds: attention to detail, lots of energy, and a whole lot of heart. Whether it’s a quick potty break or daily care while you’re away, we make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and seen. 🐶 Why We Love Pet Sitting Animals have always been a huge part of our lives. Between us, we’ve cared for dogs big and small, clingy cats, seniors needing meds, and playful puppies who never run out of energy. What we love most is building trust — not just with the pets, but with you. There’s nothing better than seeing a pet relax and enjoy themselves while their humans are away. Our schedule is super flexible — we work together as a team, so there’s always someone available when your pet needs care. Whether you need an early morning potty break, a midday drop-in, or a late evening visit, we’re happy to work around your pet’s routine. We’re available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and we do our best to accommodate last-minute bookings when possible. If you have a specific timeframe or routine your pet is used to, just let us know — we’re happy to follow it closely! 🐕 About Our Services We offer 30- and 60-minute drop-in visits that fit around your pet’s usual routine. Every visit is customized to what your pet needs — whether that’s a walk, playtime, meals, meds, or just some good company. We’re a team, so you get more flexibility and availability, and your pet gets more consistent care. We’re also happy to help with multiple pets, puppies, special needs, or senior care. 🏡 What You Can Expect From a Visit Each visit includes food, water, potty breaks, cleanup, playtime, and lots of love. If your pet needs medication, we’ve got that covered too. You’ll always get an update with photos so you know exactly how your pet’s doing. We treat every animal like our own — with patience, care, and attention to the little things.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for my friends and family for about 2 years! I also have two dogs and have always been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve been working at a doggy daycare for almost 2 years now, so I have plenty experience in pet care! I currently just work as a part time employee and part time student. I do get about a 1 to 2 hour break in-between shifts. I also am able to get up early in the mornings before heading to school and work. I don’t work Saturdays or Tuesdays, so those days I’m very flexible! I’m normally able to move my schedule around to try and be flexible, I just normally need 2 weeks in advance to fix that flexibility! I currently live in an apartment, but I walk my two dogs on my off days about every 2 hours. When I’m working I just take my dogs with me to work so they have plenty of run around room! I also use treat puzzles or squeaky toys to keep them entertained and going! I always enjoy taking pets out for rides in the car, I always ask first before taking any dog anywhere that isn’t mine. My older dog can be a little snappy, so I don’t bring him around any of the dogs I dog sit. My younger dog is very playful however and loves everyone! Shes always looking for another playmate. However I do always ask first before I ever bring her to meet other dogs or pets! I also believe in a lot of love and cuddles!! 💚 I will always make sure your pets are comfortable and safe and feel loved! When caring for others people’s pets I always ask upfront questions about what is okay and what is not. Every dog and pet is different and have completely different personalities. I will adhere to their comfortability and personality!
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a kid, from hermit crabs and fish to dogs of all ages and breeds. Currently, I love looking after a 9-year-old Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix and a 16-year-old Terrier Schnauzer mix, plus my own cats. I enjoy walks, playtime, snuggles, and showering pets with the love and attention they deserve. I feel comfortable with most breeds, am highly attentive, and take all care instructions seriously, making sure every furry friend feels safe, happy, and cherished. I work Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with an hour lunch break, but caring for pets fits seamlessly into my routine. I can give love, attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles in the morning, during lunch, and after work, making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and cherished throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow all instructions carefully and stick to their routine. I provide meals, walks, playtime, and lots of snuggles, ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I also make sure the pet’s veterinarian contact information is posted where I can quickly access it in case of an emergency, giving owners peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
“Lauren was very quick to respond and was above and beyond understanding when I made a booking error (I forgot to update my new address after moving). She was very patient with our timid puppy. Loved getting the updates and felt like Bug was in good hands. Very friendly and would love to book again.”
About: The oldest of 3, I took lead in training all our dogs growing up. Getting better as I grew up, in recent years I've had the most experience w/ both elderly pups and puppies. I can't wait to meet you and your special babies! I live and work full time in Downtown LR, so you can rest assured that i'll always be close by in case of an emergency. I like being active on the weekends, I take my kittens out in their backpack carrier and walk the downtown streets every chance I get. My mountain of toys and climbing gear is no match for the energy levels of 2 sibling kittens. I welcome any fur baby to my apartment that might make a dent, but if your pet needs a more relaxed environment I have plenty of room to manage their exposure.
“Ashleigh was great! My dog is a little weird with new people but from the pictures she took I could tell my girl was super happy! She even went the extra mile to run some more energy out by playing fetch after their walk. Highly recommend!”
About: I have lived with cats and dogs since I was young. I have loved and cared for elderly pets, and pets with medically complex needs. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to spend time with your pet on various days and times, overnights, and weekends! I'm happy to meet you where you're at. I love playing with high energy pets and spending time with low energy pets. I am happy to brush your pet, clean litter boxes and any messes made, feed and otherwise provide for your furry family member.
About: Hello! I recently retired from the army due to medical issues; therefore, I have nothing but time on my hands! I am unable to hold a traditional job now, so I decided to help others and their pets instead. I have one Pomsky who’s a little brat, but he’s the sweetest thing. My rescued German shepherd had to be put down recently due to MRSA. He had more medical issues than you can probably name. Because of this, I am pretty well versed in helping dogs with crazy medical conditions. If you have any questions, please don’t be shy to ask! 💕 Due to my military medical retirement, I have more time on my hands than most people. Unable to hold a regular job now, pet care is easily the most enjoyable thing for me. I just moved to an apartment downtown Little Rock, since homes are so expensive now days. Due to this move, there’s a high possibility I would have to bring my Pinsky with me. He is very playful and has never had any issues with other dogs or cats. He is also crate trained and potty trained. I added boarding and day-sitting for those special situations some people may have. Having a dog who had very special requirements for care and weird schedules required for care, I completely understand that there are some people who struggle to find the right sitter or just any help at all. So I’ll seldomly accept boarding/doggy day-care for those who are okay with their pup inside an apartment.
About: Animals have been a part of my life since birth. I have been touched by their kind spirits over the years and have been honored to have been loved by them and had the opportunity to love them. I have cared for cats, dogs, birds, fish and an axolotl…chihuahuas up to Saint Bernards. I currently have one 9 year old dog that was rescued from the woods and a 20 year old long-haired calico cat. I have cared for diabetic animals in the past and checked glucose levels and administered insulin depending on levels. When I care for animals, I try to duplicate their day to day experiences because we all thrive on routine right...this I have found helps your absence to not be as hard on your animal. I look forward to meeting you and your animals and caring for them as you would in your absence. I am dental professional who enjoys taking care of animals as well! Early morning visits and evening visits can be as long as needed or even overnight stays. Mid-day visits during weekdays are limited to an approximately 20 minute visit between 1-2 pm. I feel a home visit is necessary prior to the first visit to get down the routine of different animals and for your animals to see me in their home as a friendly person.

“Erin was awesome with our Bailey. She was always on time and took her for a nice walk and shared pictures of our pup while in her care. We would definitely recommend her to others.”
About: Dogs have been part of my household since childhood both as a member of our family and as a responsibility. I am familiar with puppy energy, older dog needs, and the social interaction that your furry fam requires and their individual personalities that require a unique individual approach. I am experienced with dog walking, pet sitting, visitations and transport and social time/outtings. I have traveled with pets, and know how important routines and frequent checkups are for their social and mental well-being! I have currently full availability. Dog sitting for an extended period? Absolutely not a problem. I am able to do check-ins during certain times, or if you just want them to have a bathroom break every few hours or so I’m fine with that. I am alright to do some travel for small to mid/large dogs, if they need some park time, or even if you are looking to have them taken somewhere and can’t swing by home to grab them! Currently have no pets (they had to stay back home with parents 😢) and willing to take a small animal for a weekender stay in my apartment if they have a kennel. In the event that I do I can only take them for a weekend due to apartment style living not being as suitable for a dog. However while they are here, I am able to walk them quite a bit in this area; Heights has great walkability. Most of my care would be for you at your home, walking, sitting, pickup, etc. If they like to grab treats, interact with people, etc. I can find an arrangement either you that works best for your pet. I have friends nearby who have had rescues, elderly pets, and love animals, so they would love to meet and greet and give your animal some love and plenty of attention
“Jodie has been the best for my girl Embers walks! She is always on time and super flexible with scheduling. Ember and my other two dogs really enjoyed her visits! I will definitely look forward to working with Jodie again!”
