House Sitting in Rixey

“Lacy was absolutely fantastic! My husband and I went on an 11 day trip to Europe and I was incredibly anxious leaving our fur baby, Leroy, due to his considerable health issues and his age. Lacy took excellent care of Leroy, keeping up with his medication and providing multiple updates which helped ease my mind tremendously! We came home to a very clean house and a happy, healthy boy. We can’t thank Lacy enough and would highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable pet lover who understands that your furry family member deserves the same love and attention you give them every day. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m patient, attentive, and great at picking up on each pet’s unique needs and personality. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and, of course, lots of love and cuddles. I take pride in being dependable and communicative—I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know your pet is in good hands. I treat every animal like my own and always aim to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I’d love to meet you and your fur baby! I'm currently working part-time from home and pursuing certification in dog training, allowing me ample time to care for your fur baby.I’m really flexible and will tailor to your needs I have a fenced-in backyard, and due to the winter season, your pet will remain indoors, only going outside for potty breaks or walks and play time.

About: Hi, I’m Angie, a lifelong dog lover and proud “dog mom” to seniors, rescues, and big personalities. Animals have always been part of our family life (so much so that my daughter is now at LSU Veterinary School!). I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments for years, from energetic multi-dog households to seniors, rescues, and special-needs pups. I have experience with medication administration, post-surgery rehab, blindness, seizures, and senior care. I'm comfortable following detailed routines, giving medications when needed, and adapting to each dog’s age, personality, and comfort level. I’ve helped friends and neighbors with walks, drop-ins, and overnights for years, and I’ve also been on the client side of Rover, so I truly understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your pets behind. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe and loved, and you feel completely at ease. I’m naturally curious about animal behavior, training, nutrition, and preventative care. I’ve volunteered in shelter programs (including TNR assistance) and enjoy continuing to learn more about how to support animals at every stage of life. Whether your pet needs play and adventure, a steady routine, or gentle senior support, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits and walks throughout the day, including mornings, midday, and evenings. I do have a weekend morning commitment, but I’m available before and after and will always make sure your pet’s needs are met. I care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and details, and will always follow your instructions carefully. I provide updates so you feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 10. I care for all animals even the fur babies that have anxiety away from home. They will be loved and you will have tons of photos I can pet sit during the early mornings or late at nights. Staying at the animals comfort home so they won't have too much anxiety while you're away. I can care for any animals at the comfort of your animals home. Animals prefer their home more than someone else's. Lesser anxiety for them.

“Tiffany was an amazing dog and house sitter! She stayed in our home with our two goldendoodles while we were away on vacation. She spent a lot of time with the pups and sent plenty of pictures. When we returned, the pups were well taken care of and the house was clean and tidy. She made sure our mail and packages were collected, plants watered, and other small odds and ends covered. We highly recommend her services and will definitely book her again!”

“Everything went great while we were away, and happy and healthy when we returned! Krista came over in advance to meet the pets and learn the routines - we left detailed notes but it helps to be able to talk and answer questions in person. She sent daily pics and came to do extra checks a couple of times. Our trip plans came together quickly and depended on finding a reliable sitter during spring break week, so also really appreciated that she stepped in to help us out. Would love to book her again.”

“Molly was wonderful and our babies were happy and healthy when we returned♥️”

About: I have loved dogs ever since I was young, and I am lucky enough to be able to work from home and care for your dogs due to my flexible schedule! I have been dogsitting since 2022 and have enjoyed consistent caretaking of many different pups across the Central Arkansas area, including both smaller to larger dogs as well as younger and senior dogs. I prefer to visit with the family to make sure that their dog is comfortable with me as well as to ensure I know where the essentials are stored, such as foods, medicines, etc. I have had experience as well with administering injectable medicine such as insulin in case your dog is diabetic. I am also happy to chat through any other specific needs and requests for your dog to ensure that they have the best experience under my care. I also have experience with taking care of multiple dogs at once, with three being the most that I have taken care of at one time. As I am a full time professional with a hybrid/remote job, I am able to take care of your pets easily while working. The only thing I need is a Wifi connection and I am good to go to care for your pets! I aim to ensure that your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are out of town. I request that any specific needs, routines, or other things to keep in mind be written down on a piece of paper or relayed to me so that I am able to care for your pet exactly as you need and prefer. I also love to play with them in the yard, take them on walks, and do anything that makes me feel like a natural extension of their daily routine while you are gone. One more thing: if your pet likes to sleep in your bed, I am comfortable with them being on the bed! Otherwise, I am happy to continue their usual bedtime routine.

“Thomas was amazing! We had a sitter cancel on us last minute right before the holiday. Thomas saved the day & watched our two dogs. Our older dog can be a challenge and he was so sweet & patient with her. Highly recommend!”

“Azalea was fantastic. She was very well received by Kobe Ali. I had a very bad experience with Paws Mahal dog daycare and Rover APP was just what I needed to find my God-send Azalea. She stayed at my home and provided daily care for Kobe. She walked him, played with him and showed him love. She was just what I needed and Kobe needed. azalea provided me the peace of mind needed to relax and enjoy my family for Thanksgiving. She will be booked again and again.”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 14! I am the type to say “one second, I need to go pet that cat/dog!” While owners are away, I believe that animals are so much happier staying with someone in their own home or in someone else’s safe home than in a kennel at a boarding facility! Let me be that safe place for your pet(s)! I am working part time currently, while doing online school, so I am home a lot! I have a dog of my own who often needs lots of attention himself, so I am more than experienced with making sure animals get all of it that they need/want! I have a fenced in courtyard area in front of my house, so there is room to run around for pets who stay in my home, and I also have a pet play area to take the animals to! If your pet likes to go for walks, we have a great route for walks! I especially love caring for pets in their own home because I feel that they are always most comfortable there! I always want them to be happy!

“This was the first time we had to leave our dog with someone other than family for an extended period while on vacation and we were nervous leaving him with a stranger, especially since he is an older dog with mild health issues. From the moment we met Linda she put our mind at ease and gave us the feeling she would do everything she could to make sure Leroy would be taken good care of while we were gone. She was very conscientious of trying to maintain his schedule to make sure he was comfortable and provided periodic updates to ease our minds. Linda left our house extremely neat and tidy, which was very much appreciated after a long day of traveling. We would absolutely ask Linda to watch our dog again!”

“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 owned animals my whole life, cats and dogs. I’ve watched many friends and family member’s pets while they were away and made sure their sweet babies were well taken care of. I am experienced in caring for various pets, not just your typical furry friends but reptiles and fish too! I have a big heart for all animals so I will care for your pet as I would my own :) I am a part time worker, full time student at university, but I have a lot of free time on my hands! My schedule changes frequently so I’d love to communicate with you about availability instead. At my home I have a fenced in yard and many friends to play with. Lots of cat toys, towers and treats as well! I do have roommates and they also have animals so your pet will be entering a lively environment. If your pet is more of an introvert I would be happy to come to you. I’ll make sure to give your pet the five star treatment! Playtime and cuddles will be provided. If you’re just looking for someone to give your buddy some attention and exercise, I would be happy to walk them around your/my neighborhood or at many of the local parks near me. We’ll have a great time getting some sun!

About: I’ve had pets and animals all my life! Growing up on a farm I’ve seen it all! My wife and I have fostered dogs and pet sat for years!! I work limited hours at my primary job which allows me to focus on taking care of your pets in my spare time. I’m hoping this hobby of pet care takes off and I’m able to fill in some gaps with earnings made from caring for your pets. We currently live in the country and have plenty of room for pets to run. I primary plan on walking pets near where you live or care for pets in owners homes.

“Ariela kept our two dogs in our home while we traveled for a week. She kept me thoroughly updated on our dogs and house throughout the trip. She treated our dogs like her own and based on the pictures our dogs loved her, too! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments for over 5 years, providing everything from daily walks and playtime to overnight stays. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior dog needing extra TLC, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I currently have a very flexible work schedule, which means I’m available for pet sitting and in-home visits throughout the day, evenings, and even weekends. This allows me to accommodate last-minute requests and provide consistent, attentive care for your dog when you need it most. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my priority! During in-home visits, I make sure your dog gets plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Each visit includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and playtime or a walk, depending on your dog’s needs. I also provide cuddles, companionship, and any medication if needed. I aim to keep your dog’s routine as normal as possible, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own space.

“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of my two Newfoundlands and my home. She was incredibly reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about the dogs as if they were her own. Every day she kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Both dogs were happy, well cared for, and in great condition when I returned. The house was also well looked after. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional dog sitter. I couldn’t be happier with her service!”

“Patty was fantastic with our dogs! Our dogs warmed up to her instantly! She was kind enough to come meet us and the dogs before we left for our trip. She was a phenomenal house and dog sitter! We will definitely be using her services again!”
