“Thomas and his lovely family were the perfect sitters for our two dogs! Quick and comforting communication the whole time, tons of sweet photos & videos of our pups, and easy drop off & pick up. Clean home, spacious yard with grass, and friendly companions in Thomas’ 2 Rotties. No doubt my dogs would be thrilled to stay with Thomas again, and I’m thrilled to find someone that will love my dogs as much as I do while we’re out of town. Also a huge plus that Thomas knows more about dog behavior than most-I could tell my dog’s social skills greatly improved during their short stay! Don’t look anywhere else- Book Thomas!!”

“Gail was excellent! The love she has for animals is so vibrant and she took great care of my Baxter. She kept me updated as needed and made him feel right at home. I would most definitely recommend if you want someone that will treat them like their own!”

“Ruth enjoyed her time with Courtney and Shadow. They all got along very well, and Ruth’s stay allowed her to socialize and take a break from her normal routine. Courtney helped me to not worry about Ruth or how things were going by sharing videos and keeping me updated on how she was getting along.”

“I was so happy to meet Joe and his girl Ace. Ginger seem at home. What was an even bigger relief was that Newt wasn't in hiding. We received a picture of Newt and Ace very casually in each other presence. Thank you Joe for taking care of our babies.”

“Madi was great with my Nelly who suffers from anxiety. After having her for a week she was able to make suggestions to help. Will definitely use her again!”

“Very friendly family with children and two of their own dogs. Huge yard and the house is sectioned off in case they need to separate pets. Daily updates with photos were provided. My dog stayed for a little more than 2 weeks and did great. She seemed to be having a blast playing with the other dogs.”

“Could not wish for a better sitter for my babies!!!! This is our second time with Hannah and I can’t say enough great things about the experiences. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own. She’s amazing to send pics and videos as well. Highly, highly recommend!!!!!!”

“Salma was great with my Doberman girl. She will be Birdies new best friend and I hope to use her whenever i need a sitter for a day or week. Thank you Salma for loving my girl and making her 5 days of fun and adventures. DR”

“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”

“Our pup had a great time with Molly! She was warm and inviting from the first meetup. Very quick to respond and easy to schedule. Flexible with our travel schedule. Her place was neat with lots of space for doggies. We would book with her again.”

“Larry was great! Our dog Buck is on a raw food diet which was no issue for Larry. He sent us regular updates with pictures, and communicated very well throughout our 10 day vacation. He made us feel very comfortable from the time of dropping Buck off to the time of pickup. Will be asking Larry to watch our dogs in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Doodle seemed very happy there. There were lots of kids for him to play with. I got regular updates and pics from Christian. I would definitely use them again in the future.”

“Jill has found a second home! We love Miss Rhonda. My husband took Jill to Rhonda's for a pre-stay visit. When it was time, it was a simple drop off and pick up. Her fur babies are so sweet. Rhonda sent several pictures of Jill making herself right at home. We highly recommend Rhonda! We will be back!!! We will send family members to Rover.com and Rhonda!!!”

About: I’ve had over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, a sweet Cocker Spaniel who I miss dearly every day. He taught me so much about patience, consistency, and really understanding what our pets need at every stage of life. I also have one dog now, Peanut—he’s a goofy ball of love and life! He’s full of energy, so I definitely know what it’s like to care for high-energy pups and make sure they get the structure, play, and attention they need. Along with my own pets, I’ve house and dog sat for several families (and can absolutely provide references!). I’ve cared for pets anywhere from a single day or overnight to about 2½ weeks while families were traveling. I’ve worked with both dogs and cats, given medications when needed, and always do my best to stick closely to their normal routines. I know from my own fur babies how important that consistency is—it really helps keep them calm, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also treat your home with care by watering plants and keeping things tidy, so you can come back relaxed and stress-free. What really sets me apart is how attentive I am to each pet’s personality. Whether they’re shy, anxious, or full of energy, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I follow instructions closely, communicate clearly, and I LOVE sending updates and pictures so you can see how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. At the end of the day, I just genuinely love animals and treat them like they’re my own. Hi there! I'm Rachel, and I'd love to care for your pets this summer! During the school year, I work as a substitute teacher for the Little Rock School District, but I'm off for the summer and have a much more flexible schedule. In the fall, I'll be starting school, so I'm looking forward to spending my summer doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals! Whether your furry family member needs drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention while you're away, I'd be honored to help. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I'll care for them as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members this summer! When I’m caring for your pet in your home, my biggest goal is to keep everything feeling as normal and comfortable for them as possible. I know from my own experience how important routines are, so I stick closely to whatever you already have in place-feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, all of it. I really try to meet each pet where they are. If they’re high-energy, we’ll play and get that energy out. If they’re more shy or anxious, I’ll go slow and give them space while still being a calm, comforting presence. I want them to feel safe and cared for, not stressed while you’re away. I’m also very mindful of your home- I keep things clean, stay on top of litter boxes or any messes, and can help with things like watering plants. I treat your space with respect so you can come home and feel relaxed. If I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll be treated like family. I keep a clean, safe environment and make sure they’re supervised, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention (and love!). And I’m big on communication- I’ll send updates and pictures so you can see how your pet is doing and feel at ease while you’re away.
“Angela and Amber were great!! Honey had the best time at the Poodle Palace! They were so welcoming during the meet and greet and made sure all of my questions about the stay were answered. Throughout the stay, they kept me updated with how Honey was doing with pics and videos. They’ll make sure your pup feels right at home. I highly recommend the poodle palace for your boarding needs! Thank you sm y’all!! :)”

“I adopted Scooby three months ago and this was his first time being away from me and my first time using Rover. Azalea was amazing! She updated me regularly and sent pics. Due to winter weather our plans changed several times and Azalea was understanding and flexible. Could tell Scooby felt at ease in her home! Will definitely use her again!!”

I foster shelter dogs but had a trip out of state. Gail watched one of my fosters for me. She’s a spoiled tri-pod lab and loved being at Gail’s! She sent me pictures and videos of her playing and kept me updated on how she was doing. It was so nice to know that a dog who had such a rough life was somewhere comfortable and loved while i was away. Thank you Gail!

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.

She was absolutely amazing with Bailey! I’ve never seen my dog so happy with a sitter before. Bailey got along so well with her pets, which was wonderful to see. Bailey was comfortable, happy, and even a little sad to leave when it was time to go. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience she truly did an amazing job!

There are 217 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Sherwood. About 95% of Sherwood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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 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.
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.
