“We are so grateful Jessi B. was able to sit our 2 dogs in our home. She treated our dogs great, kept us updated of their daily adventures with pictures, and was so respectful of our home. We will definitely use her again!”
“Anaysha was amazing! This was my first time using these services so I was a little nervous. Anaysha was extremely friendly and communicated so well while I was away. Anaysha went above and beyond. Highly recommended!”
“My dog Alfie seemed to have a great time with Joshua! I hired him for in house sitting while on vacation and he was a phenomenal house guest, fantastic with Alfie, and did a wonderful job of sending updates/photos and accommodating any of my requests. 10/10 would recommend going forward.”
“Simone is AMAZING! If there were 6 stars, she would get them! She was very nice and you can tell she loves being around dogs. She sent videos and pictures and made me feel like my dog may have been even happier with her! She stayed in my apartment and was very respectful and left the place better than she found it. She is a gem and I will definitely use her again!”
About: Hey guys, sorry for making my brief so long! my name is Felix I’m 20, and this is my journey which led to my passion for dogs: Poverty paralyzes the faculty of reason, destroys the faculty of imagination, kills-self reliance, undermines enthusiasm, discourages Initiative, leads to uncertainty of purpose, encourages Procrastination and makes self-control impossible. Where does a socially starved child go to find love in such a cruel world? I went to the streets to find dogs… My first dog: I was walking home from elementary school on a hot, sunny day. I took a different route than I usually take and saw a pit tied up in the alley way. With excitement I ran towards him and started playing with him. As I was getting up to leave a guy came out of the corner and asked “do you want him?” I said “what?!” And then he said “do you want the dog?” I was 10 and thought that everyone who had a dog was rich. I thought they cost millions of dollars! but here is a guy asking me if I want a beautiful dog. I was completely speechless.. I replied, “You're lying, you're not giving me this dog for free?!” he then said “do you want him or not?” I will never forget the feeling of untying him off that pole and walking away with him. On my way out of the alleyway I shouted “ I’m taking him!..” “I’m walking awayyyy!…” hoping he’d break character. I got home and I was extremely excited, reminiscing about the future with my first dog! Thankfully my mom wasn’t home yet, so I had to think of a way to convince her to let me keep him. His name was Pete, because he was white and had a brindle patch on his eye like “Pete” from the little rascals. Then my mom came home.. I couldn’t hide him because he was too big so I had no choice but to reveal him, she immediately started running away. I'm a first generation African American, meaning my mom didn’t grow up with “pets” . It wasn't the norm to have an animal as a companion- to them it was abnormal. I couldn’t stop laughing as Pete chased her around the house but my mind immediately retreated back to the fear of losing my first dog. I gave her all the benefits of having a pet and pleaded to her that I will take care of him! including the part that they’re very good with Kids Note* I have 9 siblings; being 10 and poor I didn’t have anyone else to help me raise a dog. Which came with tragic consequences. I did not know Pete’s background beyond the alleyway and when I found it was too late. Pete was abused by his previous owners… One day I was walking him and met a friend who had a couple friends over and there was a girl who started taunting Pete. He immediately turned into a different dog, launching at her. Being 10 years old with a 100+ pound pit, I was practically a toy to him, he dragged me and bit her wrist… breaking it. I eventually got him off, but they called the police. Out of shock and fear of losing him I ran away from the scene. The police searched for me and Pete for a week. I didn't tell my mom because I was scared of losing him, It was just me and him Vs the world we did everything together! He never lied, hit or cheated me, he loved and played with me even when he had no dog food! A true companion he was. Finally the police went to my elementary school. I came home from school searching everywhere for him, but couldn't find him, I didn’t think of it as a big deal beliving my mom finally grew accustomed to him and took him out. I sat in the chair and waited for her to come home. At the instant of hearing the back door open I ran to her in excitement ready to hug my dog but she walked in alone, I asked “where Pete was?” and she replied “the shelter came and got him” I didn't even get to say goodbye to him! I begged them to take me to see him, but they never did. Two months passed and the shelter finally called, breaking the news that they had to put him down because he was sick. It felt like my whole world had just collapsed. I begged my mom to tell them he wasn’t sick. He just misses me but she wasn’t a big fan of dogs from the beginning, I still remember sitting on the stairs crying. I couldn’t control those youthful ocean of tears. A feeling that if I reflect upon for too long still impacts me till this day. Something birthed in me to possess that feeling of an unconditonal companion. That led to me finding 9 more dogs. If I wrote you guys a story about each of them, this would be a literal chapter book. So I will give their names, if you would like to know about each of them feel free to reach out Here are their names: Ava,Teddy, Blanca, Snowy, Princess,Teddy, Sasha, Ezekiel and Milo Some passed away, some were rehomed, and some were taken by the shelter. I found myself in a world that pushed me to search for love in broken places. If life is the greatest teacher then I had to understand that I was my own boss. I learned not to bring or leave things in places that lack the resources to give them value, Especially special creatures like dogs. I recently just moved to northwest Arkansas with my 3 legged french bulldog (Saqkou). He has a life I could’ve only dreamt of giving my other dogs. With this heart posture your best friend is in the best hands! Thank you for reading! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my day around consistency, with morning and evening walks, regular check-ins, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure pets feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for throughout the day. I provide a safe, calm, and welcoming environment with responsible supervision at all times. I live in a friendly neighborhood, follow leash safety, respect client instructions, and prioritize cleanliness, communication, and trust in my home or a client’s home.
“My experience with Sarah was excellent from start to finish. She was willing to come meet our dog for a short visit prior. Her communication throughout the process was amazing. I felt 100% comfortable leaving our pet in her hands overnight in our . I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 10 stars!!! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends since college, when I come by to feed and walk pets while friends were away. I love animals and the opportunity to hang out with a new furry friend! I work full time Monday - Friday, so if you need anyone to come by and check in mornings and evenings, I am available! I can also be available on weekends for more long term house sitting. I make sure to communicate with pet owners on what makes them most comfortable. I make sure to check in regularly with pet parents, send photos, and let them know when I've come and gone to check in.
“Selena was phenomenal with my two dogs! I have a high-maintenance one-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer and an 18-year-old Beagle mix, and I was initially nervous about leaving them for a few days since they can be quite a handful. Selena put my mind at ease by keeping me updated and promptly addressing any questions or concerns. She even managed to walk my energetic GSP without any trouble. I highly recommend Selena, especially if you’re planning to be out of town for a few days!”
About: i have cared for my german short-haired pointer for twelve years. i understand dogs on an intuitive level and am well adapted to high energy needs. i am working on starting my own business, so my work schedule is flexible and i maintain autonomy of the prioritization and scheduling of my time. i do not have the space to care for a pet in my apartment at this time. i am respectful of other's boundaries and personal space.
“Brittany was great! Our dogs were clearly well cared for and our house was in great shape when we returned. She was great at sharing updates and photos while we're away. Will definitely hire again!”
“Jean is amazing!!! Very combinative easy to talk with. Exceeded all expectations. I made an error trying to book her, so it didn’t get put in her Callander. At last minute she moved stuff around in life to still be able to accommodate us. I’m so thankful for her. She’s a life saver, my dogs absolutely loved her she sent pictures and videos. I could tell they were in good hands with let me relax. My Doberman is pouting around the house the day after we got back. I think he is missing his new friend. She is the best. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I worked as a dog walker and sitter for 3 years and had my own dog for 16. I’m comfortable with different temperaments, follow routines closely, and pay attention to behavior so things stay consistent and dogs feel settled. I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day. I do teach yoga a few times a week, which takes me away for 2–3 hours at a time. Otherwise, I’m home and present with the dog. I’m in a single-family home with a large (partially fenced) backyard, though I prefer getting dogs out on walks rather than relying on the yard. I live near the Bentonville trails and greenway, so that’s where we go for longer walks - usually in search of the best sniffing spots. No other pets or children in the home. It’s a quiet, non-smoking space. Windows are usually open for fresh air, and there’s a big floor-to-ceiling window where dogs can hang out and watch the calm, quiet street. I’m flexible between sitting at my place or yours, and I can accommodate a crate if needed.
About: I recently started my own house/pet sitting business when the veterinary clinic I worked for decided to shut down overnight boarding. I had worked for the clinic for almost 4 years and most of the regular clients absolutely loved me. I became busy quite fast, and when I finally left the clinic to work elsewhere, I took a lot of those clients with me, simply because of how well their pets know me and how well I take care of them. My primary job is a technician for a poop scooping company and I absolutely love it. I hope to blend both jobs together. I have 16 years of professional work with animals including veterinary hospitals, non profit rescues, 1 year of vet tech schooling.
“I needed a sitter last minute as I changed my mind to board my dog (he’s 11 and getting pickier by the day). She was quick to respond, even came by the day before to meet up and kept me updated on how he was doing. Thanks again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pea Ridge on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Pea Ridge 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 Pea Ridge 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 Pea Ridge 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.
