“So happy that Zeus enjoyed his time at Andrew’s place. He sent me pictures everyday and even did some training with him! Zeus definitely was excited to see us after his 4 night stay but we could tell he was sad to go.”
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
“Michelle was very communicative and flexible. Nova had a great time staying with her and enjoyed running around the backyard. Michelle provided updates and photos which was appreciated.”

About: I have taking care of many different types of dogs in my life. I have found varies creative ways to keep them entertained, loved, and well groomed. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend when you book with me! I go to school in the morning and have the rest of the day at my house. I help out with the football team so they will get plenty of time to exercise and be social with other humans allowed. I have a room in my apartment that has a crate, couch, and a recliner to help them be as comfortable as possible. They will be in my sight at all times so there will be no worries for anything happening to them like running away or getting into anything dangerous.
About: Hello! Aside from being around animals my entire life, I also worked at an animal hospital, Hillcrest Animal Hospital in Little Rock, AR for several years. I started as a front desk receptionist, and slowly began training as a Vet Tech; where I also began doing lab work and sending test of for our specialized cases. I work very well with puppies and kittens, keeping them entertained and cared for. I also have a very strong passion for our bully breeds that are often given a bad image. I'm currently in the process of joining our United States Navy. I am waiting to ship to Recruit Training Camp, so my schedule is quite open. I go to the gym regularly, no kids of my own other than my dog-son. I don't have any other obligations outside of taking care of my own dog right now; so I'm fully free to take care of your fur babies and give them my undivided attention. I have a fenced in 30x30 foot backyard, and two well-mannered dogs of my own to give your fur baby or babies company in staying active and a fun-time. I have a very nice neighborhood, that includes many of my neighbors that walk their own dogs frequently. Plenty of roads and space for us to walk if they're here with me at my home. When it comes to caring for your pet in your own home, sitting or dropping by, I'm following whatever schedule they're accustomed to, so they don't get away from it while you're away.

“Kristen provided exactly what I wanted for my dog while I was away on vacation. Kristen understood that leaving my dog with another person was a worry and helped ease that worry. I will be leaving my dog with her the next time I need to.”

“Laura was so good to Punkin. She has kept Punkin for day sitting and now for an over night, both making us very comfortable knowing she is caring for our fur baby! Will definitely use her again!”

About: All of my life I have worked with pets and livestock, big and small. From my first dog Samson the Dachshund to Lilly the Horse and now my four fur babies I have with my husband. We have had great days playing, cuddling, bathing and so much more. And some stressful nights through thunderstorms and sickness. I love all of my many pets and I can't wait to meet yours! I am almost always available and happy to set up a routine! I am also willing to work most Holidays. I keep my schedule updated weekly. Before I take care of any pet I do have a list of questions to ask. So that I know the level of care and what you would like for me to do in case of emergencies. Everyone has a different routine and I would like to maintain that for your pet while I am are looking after them.

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
Charlene & her family were absolutely amazing!! Kofi had the time of his life in their care. Would highly recommend Charlene to look after your fur baby. She’s very nice & accommodated me on a last minute work trip. If she allows, I think I just found my forever dog sitter! 😊

Have found my reliable Rover home for Harley! William and Natalie communicate effectively and consistently, they provide ample opportunity to feel like your pet is going to a safe home and they ask questions to make sure they get it right. They have a big backyard which any dog would love but walks and hikes are still included nonetheless! Every time I pick up Harley from their house I feel like he had an opportunity to practice some social skills with their dog, and that makes me feel good about my own dog’s growth. They really make an effort to help Harley feel comfortable in their home; their love for pets is pretty evident.

Rhonda was absolutely amazing watching my pup! Partway through the stay, my little girl had an allergic reaction to a bug bite, and Rhonda handled it perfectly — she noticed it right away, stayed on top of it, and kept me constantly in the loop with updates, pictures, and videos so I could see exactly how she was doing throughout the whole thing. Her communication was outstanding; I never once felt anxious or out of the loop, which means a lot when you're away from your pet. She took such attentive, loving care of my pup and got the swelling down quickly and safely. Beyond just handling that situation well, it's clear Rhonda genuinely cares about the animals she watches — you can tell in how attentive and proactive she is. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable pet sitter, and I already have plans to book her again for my pup very soon.

Katie and her family took wonderful care of our dog, Molly. Katie communicates well, answering questions promptly and posting pictures. She was delightful to get to know and I didn’t have a moment’s worry about Molly while we were traveling. She goes out of her way to create a great experience!

Johnnie was wonderful with our dog, Dolly! He was very accommodating with drop-off, super friendly, and kept a clean, organized home. He even took great care of her when it snowed and sent pictures and videos to keep us updated. He was easy to reach and so helpful when it was time to pick her up. We felt completely comfortable leaving Dolly with him and would 100% recommend Johnnie to anyone.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
