“Rebecca and Brad took THE BEST care of “Tink”! They really got to know “Tink” and it was very evident through the multiple pictures, videos, and daily communications. “Tink” enjoyed time with their “Briar Rose” 🐶 she taught “Tink” to use the doggie door and shared her bones! The only concern I had was that my dog was spoiled so much that she may not want to come home with me😅 I would give Rebecca and Brad ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+!!!!”

“Barnabas took great care of Max and Riley while we were away on a resent trip! He sent pictures and updates everyday so I did not worry about them at all! I have already booked him for our next trip! He is our go to guy!!!”
“Our Missy, who is a border collie, pit and lab mix, is a very energetic and strong female for her smaller size. She is strong both physically as well as being an alpha female. Jocelyn knew exactly her personality right away from the first meeting and knew exactly how to allow Missy a bit of time to feel comfortable around the other dogs. It did not take her long to enjoy her time with Jocelyn and her family, which was apparent by all of the pictures that Jocelyn sent to us of our fur baby playing with others. Definitely going to have Jocelyn watch Missy again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter.”


“Oreo had a wonderful 10 days with Clarence. He shared daily updates with videos and voiceover which was amazing. Highly recommended and would love to leave Oreo again some time.”

“Our 3 dogs had the best time at Christy’s! She is so professional and experienced. It gave us great peace of mind to know our boys were safe and happy in her care. We will definitely use Christy again. Thank you!”
“Sandra has taken care of AJ several times and always does such a great job. She is great at communication and sharing how he is doing. AJ seems happy whenever we pick him up. Thank you.”

“Very BEST family ever to dog sit if you are looking for someone that will take totally great care of your pets! This family is it for me and I am so grateful I tried them out because ever since I have nothing but good things to say about them and I know how much they care about pets and take such good care of them!! Wonderful people who do great job!! Alway flexible with my short notice and schedule which is so important for me! I’m very appreciative of the flexibility!!”

“My senior dog, Bo, loves going to Emily’s house! It’s such a good feeling knowing he’s so happy and taken such good care of when I’m away. Emily is always our go-to sitter! She and her family are so sweet and I know when Bo goes straight to their door with tail wagging that he’s excited to be there!”

“Stephen and his family were fantastic. They gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation knowing our pet was being taken care of. I will always look to see if he is available next time we are looking for a dog sitter. Cannot recommend enough.”

“Tre is an absolute gem! The two things that stand out most are the genuine care she shows for my Maggie girl and her excellent communication. She’s also incredibly flexible, which makes everything so much easier. I can truly relax knowing my pup is in loving, capable hands. I’ll definitely be booking with Tre again for future dogsitting!”

“Marissa did a great job taking care of my dog, and was very easy to communicate with. She provided updates and went above and beyond to make my very nervous dog feel more comfortable. Her dogs are also very friendly and tried their hardest to be friends with my shy puppy. Maybe next time my dog will play with them.”

“Chuck took exceptional care of my dog, Ella. She is a senior dog with some recent health issues and he was so good with her..she requires medications and he made sure she got what she needed. She’s also not used to a lot of people other than family and hasn’t been boarded for several years so she was pretty whiny and clingy for the first few days but she settled in. I so appreciate his patience with her. I would 💯 recommend Chuck for pet sitting! Five stars!!”

“She did an amazing job taking care of our frenchie. She sent a daily update with pictures included. We would recommend and will definitely use her care again.”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with plenty of photos which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire time. I could tell he felt comfortable. I'll definitely be booking with Laura again!”

“Meagan and her family were so great to our Blu! She was very responsive, great at giving updates, and took him on walks. Blu struggles with allergies and she was so nice keeping us updated and was great about giving him Benadryl. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Baxter had the best time!! Layne was so good about sending updates and pictures! Her and her family played with my pup all weekend long and made us feel so comfortable! I would definitely rebook!!”

About: Let’s be honest—I didn’t choose the cat life. The cats chose me. And I’ve been happily accepting their employment offer for most of my life. 😂 I’ve had a cat in my home for more years than not, and somewhere along the way, I became the person friends and neighbors called whenever they needed someone to look after their pets while they were away. Apparently, I have a reputation for being trustworthy, reliable…and willing to provide an unreasonable number of treats. I currently have two senior cats of my own, Ruby and Thor, who are 10 and 11. They are my kids, they run the house, and yes…they are spoiled rotten. I wouldn’t have it any other way. ❤️ I know cats aren’t one-size-fits-all. Some want cuddles immediately. Some want you to admire them from six feet away. Some want playtime, treats, and a detailed explanation of why dinner is three minutes late. And some will spend your entire visit pretending you don’t exist while secretly following you from room to room. 😹 Whatever your cat’s personality, I’ll meet them where they are. While you’re away, I’ll make sure your kitty gets the care, attention, and routine they’re used to—including meals, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles (when requested by management), and plenty of love. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you don’t have to wonder what your furry roommate is up to. My goal is simple: you get to enjoy your time away knowing your cat is safe, happy, and being thoroughly spoiled. And if your cat decides I’m their new favorite human while you’re gone… …I promise to respect their decision. 😻🐾

About: I grew up with cats so I know how to handle them, whether they want all the attention or want nothing to do with you. I currently have a cat at home so I'm used to their daily needs. I'll make sure your cat is fed, comfortable and loved while you're away!

“Abby was communicative and spent a lot of time with my pets even during a busy schedule. There were a few curveballs (key I gave her didn’t work) but she reached out right away to figure out a solution”

About: Most of my cat-care experience comes from caring for my own cat, Miss Kitty, as well as the cats of a few friends. I never expected to become a cat owner, but that changed one night in June 2020 when a tiny stray kitten approached my dog Griffey and me during a walk. Griffey normally chased cats away, but this time he welcomed her, and she followed us home. The rest is history. Miss Kitty has brought so much love and happiness into my life. Caring for her has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize and respect each cat’s personality, routine, and boundaries. I’ll bring that same care and attention to your cat.

“Five stars is not enough for me to rate Sarah's dog services. This is one amazing woman! It was important for me to find someone who cared as much for my dog as I did when I started looking. Without hesitation, I can say that Sarah is the kind of person I was hoping to meet. She is such a sweetheart! The care she gives to Brandy is so comforting. Sarah kept me informed about Brandy's progress by sending frequent updates! My dog was treated like she was her own! She let her play with her children, brought my dog out for walks, and played with her in the backyard. She showed no hesitation when I extended Brandy's stay, which kept me at ease. I cannot thank her and her family enough for treating my puppy like a member of the family. Brandy is so excited to go back!!”

About: My profile says eight years experience. That reflects the time I have been in Northwest Arkansas and periodically taking care of my Granddogs Rock and River, and my neighbor's dog Lucy. Periodically, since a kid, have cared for all kinds of pets including blind and sick cats, and stray dogs. I am reliable, disciplined and pay attention to detail. if I am in your home I guarantee to take care of it and leave it in as good or better shape than I found it. I am very fit and active for my age and enjoy walking dogs. They get their steps in and I do too. It's win, win! Honestly, it hasn't fit into my routine "daily or weekly" mainly lately because I haven't had a fence up around my home and had been working full-time. Normally have cared for my neighbors dog Lucy across the street. They appreciate the fact that I can stay there with her all night and for extended periods as she is recovering from surgery. Now that I have my fence up I will be able to also offer boarding for select animals.

I joined Rover because I miss having my dog in my everyday life. He is currently staying with my parents back home in north-central Kansas.

About: Hey everyone! I've been helping take care of dogs and cats since I was young. I love animals and I have a special bond with them; especially cats. Don't get me wrong I love dogs too! Lol. I have 3 cats of my own. If given the opportunity, I would treat your fur babies like they were mine and do the best job possible. Hope to hear from you soon! I do have a full time job but I am committed to taking on more work as much as I'm allowed. I have 3 cats that I care for daily. I would carefully read over any care instructions that were left for me and properly ensure that the animal was cared for. I would also make sure to give them love and attention.

“Rebecca and Brad took THE BEST care of “Tink”! They really got to know “Tink” and it was very evident through the multiple pictures, videos, and daily communications. “Tink” enjoyed time with their “Briar Rose” 🐶 she taught “Tink” to use the doggie door and shared her bones! The only concern I had was that my dog was spoiled so much that she may not want to come home with me😅 I would give Rebecca and Brad ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+!!!!”

“Barnabas took great care of Max and Riley while we were away on a resent trip! He sent pictures and updates everyday so I did not worry about them at all! I have already booked him for our next trip! He is our go to guy!!!”
“Our Missy, who is a border collie, pit and lab mix, is a very energetic and strong female for her smaller size. She is strong both physically as well as being an alpha female. Jocelyn knew exactly her personality right away from the first meeting and knew exactly how to allow Missy a bit of time to feel comfortable around the other dogs. It did not take her long to enjoy her time with Jocelyn and her family, which was apparent by all of the pictures that Jocelyn sent to us of our fur baby playing with others. Definitely going to have Jocelyn watch Missy again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter.”


“Oreo had a wonderful 10 days with Clarence. He shared daily updates with videos and voiceover which was amazing. Highly recommended and would love to leave Oreo again some time.”

“Our 3 dogs had the best time at Christy’s! She is so professional and experienced. It gave us great peace of mind to know our boys were safe and happy in her care. We will definitely use Christy again. Thank you!”
“Very BEST family ever to dog sit if you are looking for someone that will take totally great care of your pets! This family is it for me and I am so grateful I tried them out because ever since I have nothing but good things to say about them and I know how much they care about pets and take such good care of them!! Wonderful people who do great job!! Alway flexible with my short notice and schedule which is so important for me! I’m very appreciative of the flexibility!!”

“My senior dog, Bo, loves going to Emily’s house! It’s such a good feeling knowing he’s so happy and taken such good care of when I’m away. Emily is always our go-to sitter! She and her family are so sweet and I know when Bo goes straight to their door with tail wagging that he’s excited to be there!”

“Savannah was amazing! She was very friendly and responsive. Really appreciate her keeping us updated while our dog was there for the week. She also has a huge back yard! Highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!”

“Stephen and his family were fantastic. They gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation knowing our pet was being taken care of. I will always look to see if he is available next time we are looking for a dog sitter. Cannot recommend enough.”

“Elizabeth did a great job with our dog, Bruno. She had the perfect space and perfect company to welcome any dog. She did a great job sending pics and giving us daily updates. Elizabeth was also flexible with our drop off and pick up times that worked with our schedule. Highly recommend!!”

“Tre is an absolute gem! The two things that stand out most are the genuine care she shows for my Maggie girl and her excellent communication. She’s also incredibly flexible, which makes everything so much easier. I can truly relax knowing my pup is in loving, capable hands. I’ll definitely be booking with Tre again for future dogsitting!”

“Marissa did a great job taking care of my dog, and was very easy to communicate with. She provided updates and went above and beyond to make my very nervous dog feel more comfortable. Her dogs are also very friendly and tried their hardest to be friends with my shy puppy. Maybe next time my dog will play with them.”

“Chuck took exceptional care of my dog, Ella. She is a senior dog with some recent health issues and he was so good with her..she requires medications and he made sure she got what she needed. She’s also not used to a lot of people other than family and hasn’t been boarded for several years so she was pretty whiny and clingy for the first few days but she settled in. I so appreciate his patience with her. I would 💯 recommend Chuck for pet sitting! Five stars!!”

“She did an amazing job taking care of our frenchie. She sent a daily update with pictures included. We would recommend and will definitely use her care again.”

“Baxter had the best time!! Layne was so good about sending updates and pictures! Her and her family played with my pup all weekend long and made us feel so comfortable! I would definitely rebook!!”
