About: I specialize in pet boarding services in the Lonoke, AR area for small to medium size dogs. I have cared for dogs all of my life and even lived on a farm for a large part of my life where I provided top notch care for dogs, horses, and cows/calves. Dogs have always played a large part in my life and I have a great amount of experience with training, caring, and grooming them. Dogs are certainly my best friends and I have a never ending patience and have been called a "dog whisperer" by many family and friends! I will treat your dog Iike one of my own and it will be given plenty of love! Since I am home most of the time, it will be taken out often and it will be given plenty of exercise breaks along with being fed according to your preferences. It will be allowed on my furniture and in bed for plenty of snuggles! I'm located 2 miles off of I40 for easy access to many locations. I'm home most days so I'm always available for boarding and I can give each dog plenty of attention! I can provide drop off and pickup times which are convenient for owners. I provide plenty of outside time for play and exercise! I can walk them on leash or give them their freedom if allowed by the owner. I normally feed visitors twice a day...morning and evening. If desired...dogs will be given treats!
“Thomas has been amazing with my pup! I love the attention he provides my dog while I am away at work. Provides updates throughout the day which is always reassuring. My dog is truly happy coming to his door for drop off's! He even takes him for walks which is a huge plus as my dog LOVES them! I would definitely recommend giving Thomas a try. He's great!”

About: Hello, I am Toni, a dedicated pet sitter with two years of experience. I began my journey assisting my boyfriend and quickly fell in love with caring for animals. As I embark on my own pet sitting venture, I am confident that your beloved pet will receive exceptional care and attention from me. 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.
“I had to find a dog sitter on short notice for my Doberman, and Amanda was a lifesaver. She was incredibly flexible with pickup and drop-off times, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. What stood out most was how her and her family made my dog feel comfortable and at home, despite being attached to me all the time. I appreciated the regular updates and photos during the stay, which reassured me that my pup was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Amanda for anyone in need of a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you for the wonderful experience!”

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.
“Charlene and her family provided great care for my pups while we were in town. They went for walks and were welcomed into her home as if they were her own. We would definitely bring them to her again when in this area.”

“Upon arriving the neighborhood was so nice.,, Then meeting her she was so welcoming her house was clean and smelled fresh you wouldn’t know she had dogs unless she told you: I am so happy my baby enjoyed her stay and she will return. ❤️”

About: Growing up on a family farm in Kentucky gave me hands-on experience with animals of all kinds, and it’s where my love for pets began. From helping strays find new homes to raising and training my own dog for nearly nine years, I’ve always had a natural connection with animals. I specialize in puppy training basics, gentle senior care, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or extra patience, I provide care tailored to their unique needs, always treating them like my very own. I’m newly a stay-at-home mom, available any day and anytime. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so your pet will always get the time, attention, and love they need. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They’ll have a safe, comfortable space, plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to keep their routine consistent. I’m big on making pets feel at home, so whether they love curling up on the couch or running around in the yard, I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for.
“Super friendly and very active with my dog. He was tired and slept all night after every day with Caitlyn. She also was super helpful and agreed to take him on very short notice, which was huge for me. Will definitely book again”
About: Hi, I’ve had pets my entire life. I’ve had different breeds of dogs and birds small to big, hamsters, fish, and a hedgehog. I don’t remember a time without one, but we mostly had dogs. My pets have always been treated likes babies, they are family members too! I love to cuddle and spoil any animals. I have a decent sized fenced in area. Covered porches, front and back that have gates so they can explore and play when they want outside time without the worry of them wondering off. Where my house is located we don’t have to worry about traffic when we go for walks and exploring. For rainy days, I have indoor space great for play, treats/bones, toys, dog beds and more. Large house with large windows that they can look out and roam about. My dogs roam freely but if you prefer kennels we will accept your pets indoor kennel for use as you see fit. Your dog may lay or sleep where it’s most comfortable. We have toys and water bowls (but they recognize their own better) and dog beds for your pets fun and comfort. You must supply their own food. If they have a favorite toy or blanket they lay with feel free to bring them also! I’m a stay at home mom and have a passion for animals and thought this would be a great fit. I believe in compassionate loving care and lots of fun with our furry buddies. I also understand that sometimes the best thing for our animals is a strict schedule so whatever their need, I can provide a wonderful home away from home. I would like your fur baby to come and meet before a weekend or an overnight stay so they can be comfortable with their new surroundings. •Most Important is to have Proof of current vaccinations present for meet and greet, •I also prefer them to have the Bordetella vaccine •All pets must be on flea and tic prevention. •All pets must be house broken, there are exceptions. **PLEASE** Take the time to add a picture of your furry baby and fill out important details to your profile. That not only helps me but other sitters as well.
About: I have cared for animals all my life! My daughter's friends said she was lucky to have a mother who allowed so many kinds of animals in our home! I have also cared for other peoples pets for years. I am currently working from home, so I'm available all the time...even for emergency potty breaks! I love dogs and have had them and cared for other peoples dogs all my life. I take my dog out on a leash and have leash trained other dogs.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs since childhood. I have two cats and one dog of my own. Also, I have two little boys who will love playing with and helping care for your fur babies! I’m a teacher, currently on summer break. I am taking classes online for a Master’s degree, but I will have plenty of time to love and care for your pets! I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard. You will need to provide a leash if your pet will be boarded at my house. Our neighborhood is pretty friendly toward walking dogs, and there are plenty of sidewalks. I do have dog and cat food, but if you have specific food that you feed your animal, then you will need to provide that.
About: Everyone In my life has had a pet except for me. However, I just gravitate towards animals because thats what my heart allows. Ive dog-sitted for many people: my sister, my neighbor's, my grandmother and my god mother. I love playing with them, walking with them and the most fun part is feeding them. I do soon hope to become a pet owner. I feel like this would be a great job for me and even a great business venture If I can execute it. I am ambitious and always looking for new goals to accomplish. I am 22 years old and have dreams of becoming an entrepreneur someday. I believe this is a great place to start. I would do this fulltime and be 100 percent committed.
