“Emily is the best! So happy I found her to spend time and live with Kona when I go out of town for work. Emily is very prompt with communication, on time every time, super flexible and accommodating to my schedule when something comes up last min. Emily sends lots of pictures and videos to make me feel at ease when I’m not around and missing my dog child. Kona absolutely loves Emily! Highly recommended for any of your pet sitting needs! Thanks Emily!”

“Jurnee was great with my cats! She is reliable and very kind. It’s a bonus that my cats loved her! I highly recommend Jurnee & I will definitely be booking with her again.”


3. Helen S.
“Helen is the first person I think of when I need a quality sitter, my old girl is very spoiled and is a bit of a diva with all her demands and Helen takes it all in stride. She is 11 this year and I have always trusted Helen to give her meds on time, take it nice and slow for her walks, or to sit just a little while longer on the couch to give some extra TLC. Young or old I have no doubt that Helen's exceptional services will be exactly what they need.”

“Ann was wonderful with Delilah. She actually took her to get a pup cup at Starbucks! We will use her again if we need a sitter while in Ft Smith.”


7. Katie C.

“If you have never tried Rover before (or even if you have!), please do yourself a total favor and book with Katie! I run a small business with a substantial amount of clients and I have never had a more thorough and detail-oriented experience as I did with Katie. She was an absolute JOY to work with and I appreciated how she handled all of our animals - including the barnyard type! She sent me pictures and comments TWICE daily on how our pets were doing and it was obvious from the very first visit that our older (and sometimes grouchy) dog couldn't have been more comfortable or loved Katie any more. I was suprised at how quickly he warmed up to her - great judge of character! We will be using Katie on a regular basis from here on out and I feel like we had a family friend in our home rather than someone we just "hired" to dogsit. I couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. Her communication style is A+++++. Thank you Katie!!! This family is a lifelong fan :)”

10. Kaleigha W.
“had the absolute pleasure of working with my sister Kaleigha n a recent project that involved handling some of the most well-behaved, but sometimes challenging, dogs. I’ve always known she had a special connection with animals, but seeing her in action was truly impressive. There was a situation where a dog got a little too excited during a witness testimony session, and things could’ve easily spiraled. But Kaleigha handled it with such calm and confidence, not only soothing the dog but also keeping everything running smoothly. Her patience and understanding with the dogs are unmatched, and it's clear she truly cares about their well-being. She has a natural gift, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with in that environment. Whether it's managing a tricky situation or just giving the dogs the attention they need, kaleigha knows exactly how to make everything come together beautifully. It’s always a joy working alongside her, and I’m proud to call her not just my sister, but a true professional when it comes to working with dogs.”

12. Jasmine D.
“I highly recommend Jasmine as a dog care giver with Rover. She has been taking care of my Goldendoodle, Lucy, for the last 2 months, and I am so happy with the way she provides love, discipline (when needed), and active attention. Jasmine and her family are great at recognizing Lucy’s needs and putting them first. She regularly walks her, feeds her on a set schedule, and even sleeps with her. I am very confident in Jasmine, and I know any dog (and dog parent) would be lucky to have her!”
