“10/10 recommend Lisa for any pet watching needs. She was beyond amazing with our 4 while we were gone. Kept them plenty fed and loved on them in our absence, plus kept us updated daily. I’m already looking at the calendar and checking availability for our next mini trip.”
About: I have several clients and I love watching other people pets while they are away, and want to make sure your pet still gets love I just moved back to Arkansas, I will be working for the new Community Center in Conway full time working 8 hour shifts and working for the Arkansas Storm Football Team. I love to send updates, and pictures so you know how your sweet babies are doing and so I can keep you in the know. Your babies will be in great hands and I will give them lots of love while you are gone. I will walk them, give them lots of cuddles and love, and they can even sleep in the bed with me if you allow it
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for years, and I have two of my own—so I get it. I’m super dependable, really patient, and honestly just love being around animals. I care about doing things right and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. Right now I don’t have much going on, so I’m super flexible and can fit pet care in pretty much anytime. I’m taking a class, but I can work that around whatever schedule is needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, just being honest, but my dogs are super friendly and love other dogs. I can crate your dog if needed or keep them separate—we have a whole downstairs area I can stay in with them if that’s more comfortable. I’m also happy to take them on walks as often as needed to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.

I have experience with other animals and I am patient with all animals. I don’t mind going the extra mile to help. I am currently on summer break. I love animals and need an extra hobby right now. I am happy to accommodate the day and time that would work for you and your pet. I am easy to work with and happy to do what you need done. I look forward to being able to help with your babies!

“Renee was absolutely wonderful with my little pooch toby! She communicated very well, was flexible with drop-ins and was extremely sweet! She sent the best pictures of Toby throughout the week and brightened my week! I would definitely book her again for any other out of trips I I have”
About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs over the years; including taking care of other peoples dogs while they’re away. I’ve delt with many different breeds, that are mostly small, but I have taken care of large dogs as well! I am currently taking a gap year from school and I want to experience many things before I head back, I am not that busy during the week besides work in the afternoon! I always keep an eye on my animals. I always make sure that they are fed, clean, and have had enough play time, and If the pet seems to be out of the ordinary I try to act quick and accordingly!
“We were nervous being first time pet sitter users, and first time anyone coming to our house when we weren’t there. Danielle did AMAZING! Our pets loved her RIGHT AWAY and never stopped loving her. She was super great at communicating, all the updates, and photos too!!! Honestly we’ve decided she’s our number one pick every time we go out of town!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and farm animals since I was 15. Many family members, neighbors, and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe there fur babies for many years ! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time during the day to take care of my client’s sweet fur babies after work! I have a big fenced in backyard with 3 very young and friendly dogs for your pets to play with, with your permission of course!
About: Ive had dogs since I could remember, but taking care of other peoples is completely different. I have been watching animals for others for around 3 years now. I work part-time as a server, Im typically off by 3 on Thursdays and on the weekends I get off by 5. I can fit daily or weekly care around those hours! I would prefer to work with leashed walks, or fenced in hards however I fully trust a trained animals intentions. As I would never want anything to happen to my animal while i’m gone, I would ensure that all safety precautions are taken with yours.
“Ginny was amazing! We were really worried about leaving our animals to go abroad to visit family, but she made it easy. We have a multitude of animals including 4 cats, chickens and ducks. Ginny came over to meet them before we went, she sent us updates every visit and kept us informed of everything (with lots of pics). There was an issue with the coop water (an issue from a pipe freezing - nothing from her actions) and she disconnected it and made it safe, and did extra work due to the fact it broke. Our chickens and ducks had clean water everyday and a clean filled pond, and our cats were happy and well cared for the whole time. Most of our cats are very shy, and were clearly happy and comfortable when we returned. We didn't have a single worry with her looking after everyone, and we would definitely use her again!”

Meghan K.Star Sitter
“Meghan has been a fantastic pet sitter. She is very responsive to texts and messages, caring and trustworthy with pets, and I fully trust her with the care of my pets. I have two cats, one who is 15 with anxiety for strangers and the other who is 1 and energetic. She ensured the 15 yr old received the proper care needed while I was gone as well as played with the 1 yr old (who also received proper care). By the end of the week, she was able to pet my older kitty and get some of the energy out of my younger one with play time. I didn’t feel any anxiety or worry throughout the duration of my trip on whether my cats had the proper care or not because I trusted Meghan, and she provided great pictures/videos for daily updates.”

“Hannah used to watch lots of our neighbors pets and house sit often. She would also walk some of the neighbors dogs when she went on her nightly walks.

She has two cats of her own and take great care of them.”
