“We left our little dog here for a week while we went to Puerto Rico and it was an excellent experience. Our dog came home healthy and happy and the caregiver was easy to work with and made drop off and pick up easy. We will be using her again!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Miranda and her husband. Great communication, i got lots of videos and pictures and they were flexible with my times for pick up. My dog was well loved and cared for with them. I’ll be using them in the future.”
“We appreciated Barbara so much for taking of our sweet Khia! She sent pictures and daily updates during her stay. We felt Khia did well with her and we would book her services again!”
“Lawrence was absolutely fantastic with my beagle! From the very start, he was friendly, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. He took great care to follow all my instructions and sent tons of photos and updates throughout the stay — it was so nice to see how happy and relaxed my dog was the whole time! My beagle came home tail-wagging, content, and clearly well cared for. It’s easy to tell that Lawrence genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and treats them like his own. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter — I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Everything was seamless, from meet and greet to pickup and drop off, Bianca made me feel secure with leaving my dog in her care. Constant communication with texts and pictures was just what I needed to reassure myself he was in great hands. As someone who normally takes their dog everywhere or has family watching him, I was totally confident I made the right choice with Bianca. I would definitely recommend and rebook with her any time.”
“Erin took the absolute best care of my big puppy! Even with a big storm rolling through town my boy way super relaxed and happy when I picked him back up. He definitely had a great time! 10/10”
“Absolutely the best guy! Pony loved him, we are so thankful we were able to leave for a week and know he was well loved and taken care of by Chase!! Updates with pictures were given everyday. Thank you so much!!!!!!”
About: Ive had dogs my whole life and have been the primary caregiver to my queen Schnauzer Millie since she was born- she’s now 8! I’ve trained 3 puppies and have loved it every time. I was raised in a big dog family- we have three dogs at my mom’s house my sister and brother bring their 3 dogs over at least once a week. I grew up being the primary care for the three dogs. I am a full time student at the U of A but have a lot of free time that I’d love to fill with taking care of dogs! I’m free on the weekends and have evenings/ afternoons off every day. I am always taking my dog for walks and happy to bring any other pups as well as letting them stay the night. I have the friendliest mini schnauzer that will keep your dog company. We go on at least 4 walks a day and she’s very well exercised/ played with!
“Our pups had a great time and were so loved during their stay with Ally! She kept us updated and sent lots of pics so we could see what they were up to while we were on vacation.”
“Good people. They took great care of Wynn & communicated just the right amount while we were gone. He was relaxed and transitioned back home just fine. I will rebook in the future.”
“Ashlee was fantastic. She watched our dogs over memorial day weekend. She was attentive, asked questions about their care, and was open to any concerns/questions I had. She sent me pictures all weekend and updated me on how they were doing!! And she was very flexible when our flight got delayed to come pick them up. Our pups were happy and clean when we picked them up! I highly recommend Ashlee!!!!”
About: I have my own dog here at school, and shower her with love and care all day long! I absolutely love animals and have been around many different kinds since I was little. I will treat your pets like my own. I have one class a day, other than that I am free and will happily go on constant walks! I only have one class every day, so I will be very available. I’m an early riser naturally and very active so I’d love to add another dog into the mix. I live near Fayetteville square and many trails that I can take your animals walking on! I will send you photo updates too because I know they’ll be missed🥰
About: I have 15 years of experience watching all breeds of dogs. I'm reliable, punctual, and can pay close attention to any details you may have. I have many clients and references. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I will have plenty of time to care for your babies. I treat your pets just like my own. I look forward to meeting you! I can only offer my services within the clients home. I live in an apartment and the complex will not allow me to watch animals other than my own within the apartment.
About: Been an animal lover all my life. Unfortunately I've developed an allergy to cats but most dogs I do well with. I've worked in grooming and an animal hospital in the past. My daughter and I love sitting fur babies for our friends and family. My schedule is pretty open as I work part-time time and remote. If we could we'd have a house full of animals, which is why I'm eager to get to know and spend time with yours. A mini vaca away, with lots of love, from our family to yours. I'm mostly open, work part time. Would prefer boarding with me over house sitting, depending on the breed. But which ever you fancy. If you have a breed my allergies don't tolerate very well, house sitting would be the best option. But I also have other hosting options like two separate garages, one that is dedicated to the dogs. With fans and heaters depending on the season as well as a big fenced in backyard. We can discuss schedule/routine that works best for you and your fur baby, to meet their needs. I'm responsive and operate with complete transparency if any issues arise to foster a safe and trusting atmosphere for a positive experience. Assuring you peace of mind and to build a good shared experience for everyone evolved. We have a spacious home with large fenced in yard and two dogs of our own (who are treated and up to date with all their veterinary visits), to play and keep your fur baby company. One of mine in particular is very accustomed to socializing with others from doggie daycare, as he used to go as a pup. I can also easily keep our dogs separate upon request, and crate any fur baby if needed. A bit OCD so I keep a neat, clean, tidy home so you can be assured a clean and safe environment for your pets stay. We have two separate garages, one dedicated to the dogs. As well as doggie Gates for large or small dogs. So there are multiple options to suit a variety of situations.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 15+ years for dogs of all sizes and breeds! Ready to care for your pet like it is my own! I work in education so I have really flexible summers with lots of time to care for your dog! My schedule allows me to come and go as I please so I’m available to go on walks and play with the dog as much as needed! My apartment is super dog-friendly! I’m happy to have your dog on the couches and they can sleep on the bed! I have access to a lot of green space right by my apartment and plenty of safe-walking areas!
About: I’ve loved dogs forever but didn’t started caring for any until we got our first family dog when I was about 6 years old. Since then, I’ve pet sat for neighbors, friends, and family; but I’m excited to expand my horizons! I have class M, W, F in the am, but other than that my schedule it totally flexible! Other than the occasional trip home to Texas, I am pretty much always available. My roommate has one female dog that is neutered and crate trained. I have a fenced in balcony with turf and a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. I would love to take your dog(s) on fun long walks to the park or even in the trails down by my house.
About: I’ve had 2 dogs for all of my life until very recently! I’ve cared for a senior dog, a service dog, and an active german shepherd / labrador mix who can walk for hours!!! I am genuinely always looking to hang out and care for other’s dogs as I know how much MY dogs love attention, love, and care :) My apartment is a one bedroom apartment but I have boarded other dogs there before, my home is their home!!! As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 237 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Skylight. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Skylight can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Skylight home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Skylight.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Skylight. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Skylight sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
