“Sue was extremely kind and welcoming to our dog, and took great care of him! She was quite sweet to both us and our furry friend, and we would definitely use her again in the future for watching him. 10 out of 10, highly recommend!”
“Lark is amazing!!! This was my first time using her and I can only say good things about her. You can tell she cares about your animal and puts you at ease leaving them with her! My pup loved her will be using her again:)”
“Miranda and Joey took the best care of our pup! We have a large husky doodle and he got along great with their pets. They also sent us update pictures of our pup throughout our trip :)”
“Barbara does such a good job taking care of our dogs. She walks them twice a day, has other dogs around for them to play with and loves on them. They love playing and exploring in her backyard. We always know our dogs are well taken care of when we leave our dogs with her.”
“Kay is an amazing dog sitter! My pup was free to roam the backyard with the help of her built in doggie door and large yard. My pup experiences separation anxiety and Kay provides loving care while I was away...she even let him nap on the bed next to her pups! Her three sweet dogs and her cats are extremely loving and played with my pup during his stay. Rex even made a best friend with Kay's cat Butterbean too! I highly recommend Kay for your furry best friend! Drop off and pick up are a snap with Kay. And she sends pictures to give a daily check up of your pup! ”
“Teddy was a very happy dog while he was in the care of Cristina and her family. She sent photos and stayed in contact with me. I think they enjoyed Teddy and much as he enjoyed they stay. Thank you!”
“Pamela was absolutely wonderful. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and videos, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how much fun our dog was having. It was clear from every update that our dog was happy, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention and care.”
“Tre was wonderful, and I know Maisie was very happy staying there!! She sent messages, pictures, and Maisie even came home with a Christmas scarf 🧣 I am so glad that we found Tre; she’s a gem 💎”
About: I have cared for pets, including my own, for more than five years. I understand that pets are part of the family and deserve love, patience, and attentive care. I keep a clean, organized environment and stick to a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and exercise. I follow instructions carefully and use good judgment when something unexpected comes up. I'm also comfortable giving medication, keeping a close eye on behavior and appetite, and sending regular updates so owners know their pets are safe and happy! I work a hybrid schedule with spending most of the time at home. Pets have plenty of space to relax and play. Toys are welcomed! I have a fenced back yard with security camareras including a lot of shade from the trees. Inside there is plenty of room as well. I can dog crate at your request.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, so caring for pups has always come naturally to me! I have two friendly, M-to-L dogs of my own who would love some new furry friends to play with. I enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing with them outside, getting in some extra belly rubs, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel loved. I also love taking pictures, so you will get plenty of them while you’re away! I work during the day with a fairly flexible schedule and occasionally have the option to work from home, which allows me to be available and spend extra time with your pups. We also have a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and burn off some energy! My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while their people are away. I know how much our furry family members mean to us, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your pups! 🐾 I walk my dogs after I get off work (usually around 9a), I stay a bit so they can eat, then go to bed around 11a-12p. My boyfriend gets home around 5p and lets the dogs outside in the yard. When I get up by 7p, I feed the dogs and we sit and play. I let my boys on the couch and in bed with me, they are absolutely spoiled. I don’t have any crates but we have a 3 bedroom house I can put my dogs in if needed. I always enjoy feeding my dogs special and nutritious meals because I’m really into health, so your dog can try some new foods!
“This is our second time hiring Morgan to dog sit our Yorkie, Max, and he loved it just as much as the first time! Morgan shared daily updates and photos of Max enjoying his time relaxing with them. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Megan watched my dog Bentley over the 4th of July weekend for the first time. She was flexible and responsive even though my booking was short notice. She stayed in communication during his stay and sent me picture and video updates while he was with her. Bentley enjoyed his time with her and her dog Bear. I would definitely book her again.”
“Colin is a very nice and courteous young man. He was super responsive and sent multiple pictures of our girl. He has a precious dog named Bear that’s just a big fuzzy baby and easy to be around. He has a nice yard which worked great for Lulu Highly recommended!!”
“This was my first time leaving Lola with a dog sitter. It was a great experience for Lola and Me. I felt comfortable leaving Lola with Alyssia because of her good reputation with animals. I enjoyed getting pictures of her and Lola seemed very happy and well taken care of. I don't think she wanted to leave! I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. 100% would do it again and recommend Alyssia and Rover dot my friends and family.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and happy to follow any special instructions or routines your pet needs. I am currently a college student, but I’m pretty flexible with my time. I’m available to take your dog out for walks, drop-ins, or even boarding for a few days. I also have three other roommates who love animals and can help out when I’m busy or need an extra hand. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention and care. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I always make sure pets are safe, secure, and never left unattended. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving extra snuggles, or keeping things tidy, I go the extra mile to ensure peace of mind for both you and your pets.

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 Summers 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 Summers 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 Summers.
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 Summers. On Rover:
- 90% 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 Summers 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.
