“We are so thankful to have found this great family to dogsit our dog! They have kids and pets of their own and made sure that everyone was safe and friendly with each other. They sent us pictures often and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Great experience with Wes and his family!”
“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!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom was a wildlife rehabilitator for Arkansas Game and Fish, so I learned early on how to nurse injured and sick animals back to health with patience and compassion. From bottle feeding baby animals to helping with their recovery, I developed a deep respect for all creatures. In 2020, I began working with my stepmom at a petting zoo, where I had the amazing opportunity to train under a veterinarian. There, I learned how to administer medication, care for injuries, and provide emergency treatments like fluids and splints. This hands on experience gave me confidence and knowledge to handle all kinds of situations. I also worked at a busy doggy daycare, caring for up to 40 dogs daily and providing overnight care for boarders. Managing so many furry friends taught me how to stay calm, organized, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. It also led me to truly be able to read body language and when to insert myself to prevent any unwanted interactions. I love creating a fun, safe environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. Now I am a personal protection/working dog trainer in training! It has taught me so much about how a dog’s brain works and how to best attack any situation with confidence! Overall, my experience combines a lifelong love of animals with professional training and real world skills; so I can promise that your pet will be in great hands! Right now, I am almost fully available for pet care! I work M-F 8:30-3:30, but your pet will get my full attention while I am with them! Whether it's early mornings, late nights, or last minute needs, I've got the time and energy to give them all of the love, play, and care they deserve! When I am caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I'll follow your instructions closely; whether that means feeding schedules, walks, meds, cuddles, or quiet time. I'm super respectful of your space and I'll always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally at ease while you're away!

I have a secure fenced in backyard for your where your fur baby and run and play. I the ability to create if your fur baby requires it.
“Tammy is amazing! She has such a calming and welcoming spirit. My dog has separation anxiety and to see my pup jump up to tell her goodbye was so sweet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!!”
“They were so patient with Chase. I had never gone out of town before where I didn’t take Chase. This was our first experience. He didn’t take it well but Renee continued to send updates and Chase got used to being with them. I would of course book with her again!”
“I had never gotten anyone to watch our dog, Bonni, before (other than family) & so I was a little worried, but she did great with Scout and her family! Scout let us come out to her place ahead of time so Bonni could meet her and see where she would stay. Overall, communication was great, she kept me updated on how Bonni was doing with pictures, and I would 100% feel comfortable having her watch Bonni again!”

“I'm so pleased with the services that Trinity provided. She is fantastic. Trinity sent us daily statuses and pictures of my dogs which gave me a sense of relief. I have a 10y old grumpy husky who usually doesn't like being away from home and is always in a hurry to jump in the car when we pick him up. That was not the case this time! My two dogs did not want to leave! I will be requesting her services again.”
“Charlene and her family made sure Ember felt right at home! She loved it and she was well entertained including playtime and walks. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Madison & Isiaih have done great boarding my dog. They send pictures and videos of my dog’s activities and that gives me peace of mind knowing that my Louie is in good hands .”

“Laura was so good to Punkin. She has kept Punkin for day sitting and now for an over night, both making us very comfortable knowing she is caring for our fur baby! Will definitely use her again!”
“Samantha & Matthew took great care of Sammy. This was my first time using Rover. They made me feel good about leaving Sammy with them. Samantha and her family were very friendly and explained the process for this 1st timer. I'm thankful for her taking the time to make sure Sammy and Jetta were a good mix. I would use them again. Thanks again!!”
“Mandy was great with Luna! We go updates every day more than once a day and we could tell she was being well taken care off! Will definitely reach out to Mandy again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Amber was able to accommodate us with a last minute request. This was our second time to have our dog stay with her. He does well with Amber. I would definitely recommend Amber to anyone needing dog boarding services.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many sizes since I was twelve years old. I have a dog of my own who is my best friend and I understand the feeling of leaving them in another person’s care. I will treat your dog with the love and friendliness as I do my own. Weekends are the best for me to take care of your animal, as I have a full time job. I am free in the morning until 6:30 and in the evenings starting at 5:30 I have a 6yo hound mix who is the friendliest boy to all animals. He would love to keep your dog company. I have a safe area outside to walk the dogs on a leash as well as a fenced in back yard for some fun!

“Haley is the best! I booked her to watch my cats while I was on a weeklong trip with very limited phone service. About an hour before she was supposed to make her first visit, I got a voicemail from my leasing office saying my apartment had completely flooded from a burst hot water heater. I let Haley know what was going on, but did not have a lot of information from my leasing office and was having a hard time getting back in touch with them. Haley kept me updated on everything, . It was a huge relief to know that someone was there checking on them, and taking good care of them with everything else that was going on. Don’t know what I would have done without her!”
About: I have been house sitting for 16 years and have loved animals my whole life. I follow pacific instructions that the owner have. I play with the dogs, cuddle with the dogs, and get very attached to all the ones I watch. I treat them as they are my own. My friends I house sit for trust me very much and fight over me when they go on Vacation at the same time. House sitting is my hobby, and I am very passionate about it because I love dogs so much. I do work Full- Time at Pathfinders during the week and have some doctors appointments, but I make sure the dogs are taking care of between my schedule. I always work them in. :)
About: I have 6 years of professional experience working with animals. Most of this knowledge is from working as a veterinary technician at a 24 hour emergency facility treating dogs and cats. I have also worked as a vet tech in a general practice that treated anywhere from dogs and cats to iguanas and chickens! This professional background has granted me the ability to care for a broad spectrum of animals, regardless of age or special need. I am comfortable with administering medications and/or therapies as needed. My true passion is being there for animals and giving them a voice when they need it most. I grew up with animals in my life starting at a young age. My childhood dog was a miniature poodle named Izzy. We shared 13 wonderful years together before she inevitably passed. I learned from her what true love and friendship could be from a pet. Fast forward to today, my husband and I currently share our home with an old English bulldog named Squish, a French bulldog named Oscar, and a short haired little kitty named Wanda. Squish is our wisest and oldest of the bunch at around 9-10 years old. We rescued her when she was 2 years old and she has helped teach our other fur babies the ropes! If you feel I am a great fit for your family and needs, shoot me a message! I would love to meet your furry(and not so furry) companions. My schedule is quite flexible and I can easily stay in touch with owners. I have reliable transportation 24/7 and do not mind running for pup cups! We currently own a home with a fenced in yard. The neighborhood is very pet friendly, and has pup-allowed walking trails just a few minutes away.
About: All of my life we've had dogs as pets. I grew up with three dogs in our home and we currently have a lab/shiba inu mix as well as a mastiff mix. I love all dogs and am not afraid to get on the ground and play with them. I work a full time banking job so I am available after 5pm most days, and available most weekends. I have trained all of the dogs I've had: from learning how to play dead, speak, roll over, give high fives, and even leave a treat on the floor until I say "get it"! I love to take my dog out for walks and play fetch. I love dogs of all kinds: small ones, medium sized, and big lovable pups! We both work full-time Monday through Friday 8-5. We can drop into your home before and after work if needed to feed and let out your pet. Your pup can stay with us in our home as long as they get along with other dogs! We have a fenced in yard and an energetic pup who will keep yours company! We can also provide drop in visits 2x a day if you are more comfortable having your pup at home while you are out of town. I work full time and usually get home around 5:45-6pm. My husband also works the same hours. Morning and evenings drop-ins are doable for us! If we board, your pup would need to be ok out and about our home with other dogs, or in a kennel. I have a fenced in yard and 2 energetic and friendly pups to keep yours company. My boy dog is very young and loves to play!

About: I've been a pet owner for 16 years, and I will treat your pup as I would my own - with lots of cuddles, treats and playtime.. I am patient and am able to work with your dog to make him or her feel comfortable. I love to work with seniors. I have had two geriatric dogs in the past and am familiar with the care for these more fragile pups. I work from home most days, but I am limited on time to drop-in. I can drop in before 8, at lunch, and/or after work to accommodate your needs. Ability to drop in before 5 are dependent on locations close to where I live. For boarding or drop-in visits to my home: I have a fully enclosed privacy fence and spacious back yard. I can crate as you wish - I have crates medium and large dogs, and you are welcome to bring your own kennel or beds. For Pet/housesitting services: The goal with pet care at a client's home is to maintain routine and consistency to ease any anxiety or confusion pets may feel without their fur-parents. Outside and play time are absolutes.
“Laura made sure Punkin was comfortable which made it easier to leave her. Punkin seemed to get along with her fur baby’s well too, they are so sweet! We will definitely use her again…. Booking an overnight stay now!”
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.

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'm a good listener and highly adaptable so any special care your pet needs will not be a problem. Pets are as different as the many colors they come in and they deserve individual care.

About: We have been taking care of pets, livestock and wild life for 24 years. I have been in business as a groomer for 20 years and have transitioned to daycare and boarding. I board animals 7 days a week and do daycare Monday thru Saturday. Hours are 7 am to 6 pm Monday thru Saturday and 2pm to 6 pm on Sunday. I am located in the heart of Vilonia on a beautiful 35 acre farm. I have multiple fenced in areas, suites, kennels and catios to take care of any of your pets needs. We offer 2 snacks a day and can provide nature walks or a ride on our side by side. Our play areas all have turf so you don't have to worry about your dog getting muddy.
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.
“Cailey is great, my husky puppy goes to her during the week while I’m at work and I am very happy with the care she has given! Daily pictures, willing to work on continued puppy training while she’s there, and gives me the peace of mind knowing my girl is safe while I’m away all day.”
About: I love learning dog behavior and training. I have been able to help a few dogs and owners understand why a dog is doing things. Im not experienced enough to fix a lot of behaviors, but I can still understand the issue. And can help soemtimes! Helping dogs walk better is my specialty. I also have experience working with many breeds of dogs. Including; Bull terriers (pitties and bully breeds), German Sheppard, Rottweilers, Hound dogs, Retrievers (lab and golden), Yorkies, American Akita, and Chihuahuas. Along with the many mix breeds. I love all dogs 💛 I don't believe there is any bad dog! I'm a stay-at-home dog mom and new skin puppy mom (baby). My everyday schedule is pet and human care, so your fur baby will fit right in! Walk, Eat, Rest (crate), Play, and Repeat. I have a fenced-in yard, constant supervision, friendly dogs, but since i have my hands full with my 4 dogs and baby. I do usually crate boards until i feel like i understand their behavior around everything that goes on in my home. Crating them also just helps me keep things under control especially with a new baby, but i get responses like "i could never crate my dog" even before i had a baby. Its for your dogs safety even though my dogs are friendly! I usually only let one of my dogs play with whatever guest we have one at a time, so your family isn't overwhelmed with my pack. i also dont keep my dogs up all day when boarding as well, so crating boards in my home they get all the attention! I PROMISE your dog will not even care they are in a crate because of how much i do for them when a dog boards with me!! Even if you havent crated them before or they dont do well usuually in your home. Ive had many clients be surprised they did well for me! And love my services because even though i use a crate, i truly will give your fur baby so much love and attention like no one else!! Your dog will love my home and I will love your dog! I let them out to potty and play often. I just need the crates help to keep things under control and keep your dogs safe is my top priority! I also have experience with pregnant dogs, so if you need someone to take care of any memeber of your pack while you go on a trip I'm prepared.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10. I would frequently pet sit for my neighbors when they went on trips, and took care of my own animals (a cat, 3 dogs (1 large, 2 small) and fish). I’m quite used to staying up overnight with small puppies for whatever they need, and work best with a specific schedule and instructions to ensure each and every pet is cared for properly! I’m currently attending college in the mornings until around 11:00, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets past noon. Contact me about specific dates! For day sitting and walks I’m glad to take them to the pet park, to go get a pup cup, or even just play in your backyard. For overnight care, I’m happy to stay in house to keep their schedule consistent and stick to any schedule you provide.
About: I love all animals of course! I personally have two cats and big dog myself. I have had animals of all kinds growing up and love all like they’re my own! I can’t wait to become your animals best friend😊 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care throughout the day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, so I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays while making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow their routine, constant supervision, keep their environment clean and secure, and make sure they have plenty of love, exercise, and attention. I’ll also respect your home, follow any special instructions, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I've spent my entire life around dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. My family has always had at least one dog in the household-right now we have four-so I've experienced almost every stage of canine care. I raised my own goldendoodle, Paisle, through an extremely energetic puppy phase, and I've also cared for senior dogs, including our family cocker spaniel who faced health issues and became sensitive in his later years. I am comfortable handling both large dogs and small breeds. This lifelong, hands-on experience helps me understand each dog's unique needs and provide patient, reliable care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for multiple dogs at home. I keep a consistent schedule with feeding, walks, playtime, and individual attention, so adding another pet into my routine feels natural. I’m also a full-time student, but during the summer I’m not busy with classes, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for drop-ins, walks, or longer stays. Whether it’s daily care or weekly check-ins, I’m organized, reliable, and always make sure each pet gets the attention they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment that matches each dog’s needs and routine. I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, crate training, or preferred walking routes. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and I’m patient with dogs who are shy, high-energy, or adjusting to a new space. I also keep communication open with frequent updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that helps your dog feel as secure with me as they do with you.

About: I’ve grown up around many of my own pets as well as other peoples that I’ve cared for throughout my neighborhood. I’m not a party person nor do I have many friends.

Sitting does not affect my routine at all, I plan my weeks to fit sitting for pets I like to make sure that animals are fed and happy.

About: Hi!!! So I’m really looking for dogs to walk/run or hike with me. I love the outdoors. I’ve always had animals. Mostly a dog. Right now I have a bulldog (see why I want to walk your dog?) she doesn’t like to walk. Lol I have two daughters, Destiny and Devyn who have just recently both gone off to college. I’m married to my husband now for 24 years! So the empty nest is hitting me and I need a little something else to do. So let me help you by getting your dog out and run off some energy!! So when you get home form work you can love on a nice relaxed and probably tired doggie. I’m Looking forward in working with you. I am a senior photographer. So I have slow times in my days, weeks and months. I like to stay active so keeping busy walking and caring for pets is a way for me to do that. I always have my dogs and others on a leash when needed when we are on a walk. Keeping the dogs and the people safe:)
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.

“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!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom was a wildlife rehabilitator for Arkansas Game and Fish, so I learned early on how to nurse injured and sick animals back to health with patience and compassion. From bottle feeding baby animals to helping with their recovery, I developed a deep respect for all creatures. In 2020, I began working with my stepmom at a petting zoo, where I had the amazing opportunity to train under a veterinarian. There, I learned how to administer medication, care for injuries, and provide emergency treatments like fluids and splints. This hands on experience gave me confidence and knowledge to handle all kinds of situations. I also worked at a busy doggy daycare, caring for up to 40 dogs daily and providing overnight care for boarders. Managing so many furry friends taught me how to stay calm, organized, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. It also led me to truly be able to read body language and when to insert myself to prevent any unwanted interactions. I love creating a fun, safe environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. Now I am a personal protection/working dog trainer in training! It has taught me so much about how a dog’s brain works and how to best attack any situation with confidence! Overall, my experience combines a lifelong love of animals with professional training and real world skills; so I can promise that your pet will be in great hands! Right now, I am almost fully available for pet care! I work M-F 8:30-3:30, but your pet will get my full attention while I am with them! Whether it's early mornings, late nights, or last minute needs, I've got the time and energy to give them all of the love, play, and care they deserve! When I am caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I'll follow your instructions closely; whether that means feeding schedules, walks, meds, cuddles, or quiet time. I'm super respectful of your space and I'll always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally at ease while you're away!

“They were so patient with Chase. I had never gone out of town before where I didn’t take Chase. This was our first experience. He didn’t take it well but Renee continued to send updates and Chase got used to being with them. I would of course book with her again!”
“I had never gotten anyone to watch our dog, Bonni, before (other than family) & so I was a little worried, but she did great with Scout and her family! Scout let us come out to her place ahead of time so Bonni could meet her and see where she would stay. Overall, communication was great, she kept me updated on how Bonni was doing with pictures, and I would 100% feel comfortable having her watch Bonni again!”
“Alex was amazing with our dog and provider the best of care! Very capable, trustworthy, and caring! And she was very flexible to meet our needs. She also provided updates and pictures of our pet as we really missed him while we were away!”
“Charlene and her family made sure Ember felt right at home! She loved it and she was well entertained including playtime and walks. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Truly appreciative of them taking care of my fur babies…took pics of them everyday and keep me informed of how they were doing…definitely would recommend 😊”
“Laura was so good to Punkin. She has kept Punkin for day sitting and now for an over night, both making us very comfortable knowing she is caring for our fur baby! Will definitely use her again!”
“Samantha & Matthew took great care of Sammy. This was my first time using Rover. They made me feel good about leaving Sammy with them. Samantha and her family were very friendly and explained the process for this 1st timer. I'm thankful for her taking the time to make sure Sammy and Jetta were a good mix. I would use them again. Thanks again!!”
“Mandy was great with Luna! We go updates every day more than once a day and we could tell she was being well taken care off! Will definitely reach out to Mandy again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Amber was able to accommodate us with a last minute request. This was our second time to have our dog stay with her. He does well with Amber. I would definitely recommend Amber to anyone needing dog boarding services.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many sizes since I was twelve years old. I have a dog of my own who is my best friend and I understand the feeling of leaving them in another person’s care. I will treat your dog with the love and friendliness as I do my own. Weekends are the best for me to take care of your animal, as I have a full time job. I am free in the morning until 6:30 and in the evenings starting at 5:30 I have a 6yo hound mix who is the friendliest boy to all animals. He would love to keep your dog company. I have a safe area outside to walk the dogs on a leash as well as a fenced in back yard for some fun!
“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”
“I can’t thank Asia enough for the amazing care she gave my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. Rambo can be a bit much at first, but Asia went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and at home. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, showing Rambo relaxing, playing, and getting lots of love. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being cared for like family. She even noticed his food was getting low and made sure he was still fed, and took the extra time to keep up with his routine. When I picked Rambo up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. It honestly felt like he had been on a mini vacation of his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again with her family—they are reliable, and very kind. Highly recommend 10/10!”
