“Jocelyn was incredible! I received plenty of pictures and felt amazing leaving my baby with her! I knew if I texted her she would respond quickly as well. I will definitely be using her next time I am out of town :)”
“Everything went great! Xena was tired and ready to go home but a little reluctant to leave. I got consistent updates throughout her stay. She was treated as though she belonged to them. I will be booking again.”
“Elsy was amazing! This was my first time leaving my 4month toy poodle and I was so nervous. Elsy put me at ease literally 30 min after dropping him off. All the photos and videos she sent throughout his stay and seeing him happy and having a good time gave me so much relief while out of town. I definitely recommend her and I will be using her again.”
“Our dog has a little stranger fear; Barnabas was super calm and gentle with her and she was at ease right away. He sent lots of photos and videos & she looked really happy in them all. We felt very confident that she was well taken care of. Five stars; highly recommend and would book again!”
“Rebecca is amazing! She loves dogs and it shows. Our baby had a wonderful time playing with Briar and her family. She communicated regularly and we knew he was in great hands. We will definitely ask her to watch Chico again in the future 💕”
“Christy was great! She would send pictures and videos of Coco playing! She has great communication and always made sure let us know that Coco was having fun running around with the other dogs! Would definitely book again!”
“We love leaving our baby with Layne, because we know he will have a great time! When we pick him up, I think he's more sad to leave her than happy to come home to us! :) It's such a great feeling to know that he's safe and comfortable while we are away. Thank God for Layne and her Family!”
“This was our 2nd time using Kay. She cared for our dog like he was her own. I know he had a great stay as he didn’t have his “anxious” whine on the way home as he’s had other places. Kay will definitely be our go to sitter for now on!”
“Christy was extremely communicative and helpful in watching my little guy. He had friends to play with and seemed very happy in the many pictures she sent me to ensure I knew he was safe and cared for. I will definitely call on her assistance again. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Chanel helped me tremendously on short notice. She welcomed my boy into her squad with open arms. Lenny loved his time there so much, he ran back to her when we were leaving! Chanel provided so many updates and photos. I can’t rave enough about how wonderful she was to my pup.”
“Karrla overflows with love and care for all her furry boarders. They are welcome on the couch and bed to cuddle with her. She accommodates feeding needs and makes adjustments to help dogs feel comfortable away from their families. Karrla sent me daily comments and a variety of pictures of my dog Buddy. I saw that he was eating, playing outside, interacting or resting with the other dogs. I appreciate her conscientious care of Buddy and will definitely use Karrla again for boarding.”
“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!”
“Mavis & Molly had such a great time with Savannah, it was hard to get them to leave. Not only did they have plenty of room to play, but Savannah also spent time on teaching them manners. I will certainly reach out to Rover/Savannah for our next trip.”
“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!”
“Ford had the best time during his stay with Tiffany and her sweet family! Tiffany was very communicative and kept me updated on all of Ford's behavior during his visit. I really appreciated her kindness and ability to work with us on timing and everything. We will definitely be using her again!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea! We are new to Eureka Springs and were so worried about leaving our babies with someone new. We liked Chelsea immediately and our shy orange boy also walked right up to her during the meet and greet which is always a good sign. While we were gone (10 days out of the country), Chelsea was so loving with our cats and provided thoughtful updates with photos and helpful info. After they first visit and update we were completely at ease for the rest of our trip and our super shy girl who I mentioned might never come out even came out for pets by the last couple of visits. We will use Chelsea for any/all upcoming pet sitting needs for as long as she’s available. THANK YOU!”
“Michelle was amazing!! She house/cat sat for us for 5 days and made our vaca a breeze! Communicative, trustworthy, and our (sometimes aloof) cat loved her which is kind of a miracle. Thankful for her taking great care of Val and our home!!”
About: Here’s a cat-focused Experience section that still feels strong and professional: ⸻ I have hands-on experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, from playful and social to more independent or shy. I understand that cats thrive on routine and familiar environments, so I take a calm, patient approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with daily cat care including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and enrichment. I also pay close attention to behavior and subtle changes, since I know cats can be very expressive in quiet ways. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and can assist with basic medications if needed. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve helped care for cats for friends and family, making sure each one receives attention that fits their personality—whether that’s interactive play or simply a calm, reassuring presence. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to creating a low-stress experience so your cat feels safe, respected, and well cared for 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”

I’ve also had experience with special needs cats, including one that was blind.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve owned both cats and dogs over the years, and I currently have three sweet dogs of my own, two Golden Retrievers and a Great Pyrenees mix. They are all very friendly and love meeting new furry friends. I also have experience fostering dogs from shelters, where I’ve worked on potty training, crate training, and helping dogs overcome challenges like reactivity with people or other pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to dogs over 100 pounds. I have experience with all life stages, from very young puppies, even bottle feeding age, to senior dogs up to 14 to 16 years old. No matter the pet, I treat every animal in my care with patience, love, and lots of attention so they feel safe and right at home. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, but caring for pets is naturally part of my daily routine. My mornings start early, around 6 to 7am, with potty breaks followed by breakfast around 7am. Throughout the day, I provide additional potty breaks based on each pet’s needs, typically late morning from 10 to 11am, mid afternoon from 3 to 4pm, and again in the evening from 7 to 8pm, followed by dinner around 8pm. We always end the day with one last potty break before bedtime. On weekends, I am home more often, which allows for extra attention, walks, and playtime. I am very flexible and adapt to each pet’s individual needs, treating every visiting pet as if they were my own. I prioritize consistency, comfort, and making sure every pet feels cared for and at ease. In my home, pets are cared for just like my own three dogs, with lots of love, attention, and a consistent routine. I make sure they are fed on time, always have fresh water, get regular potty breaks, and have plenty of playtime, walks, or cuddle time depending on their personality. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, comfort level, and any special needs so they feel safe and at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick as closely as possible to their normal routine to keep things familiar and stress free. This includes feeding, walks or potty breaks, playtime, crate routines, and giving any medications if needed. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you are away.
“Elizabeth was amazing! She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. She was also super flexible with our timing, which was greatly appreciated! Our pup was sooo happy when we picked him up. We can tell he had such a fun time playing with her dogs. Will 10/10 use Elizabeth again any time we visit Bentonville!”
“Max has a great setup for doggy daycare. He made my scared, anxious pup feel right at home. My dog didn’t feel comfortable with the other dogs so he played with him outside and gave him the space he needed. He’s got a large fenced yard with plenty of grass, which my dog loves.”
“Eric was so cute with Coco. He made she she felt special by walking her twice and feeding her lots of snacks. He put up with my changing schedule and was sound about accommodating me. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello, I own 6 ferrets, 2 cat's, a dog, a snake and a bird. I've owned animals my entire life and love all animals. Im a sucker for big dogs and especially Rottweiler's and Pit bulls. I don't mind house sitting and letting them out multiple times a day and walking them so they don't get to bored or lonely. I'm also happy to scoop litter boxes and play with cats or ferrets (I'm also a sucker for these little heathens). Also more than comfortable feeding any scaley friends. I don't have any problem with any animals, I've never met a dog I didn't love and I'm looking forward to hanging out with your fur babies. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
“I highly recommend Kim! She was very professional from the first response to my inquiry to our meet and greet. I felt very comfortable leaving Wiggles with her. I received pictures and updates throughout the day. I feel fortunate to have found someone like Kim.”
About: I love dogs and treat them like my own child. I will love and care for your baby like you would. I’ve been around animals of all kinds my whole life. Dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, cows… so on. If you need someone to watch your baby I’m here and willing to help. I’m a stay at home mom. My little girl and I love dogs and would love to watch yours. Every once in a while I may need to run to Walmart for a few minutes. But other then that I’m home most of the time. I have a fenced in back yard. dogs are allowed on the couch and anywhere in the house with me. I would even allow them to sleep in my bed if that’s what they’d like. Full time dog snuggler. I’ll even send pictures throughout the day if you’d like.
“Today was our 1st day leaving our new puppy for the day & WOW we are so pleased with Casey!! She sent us so many updates throughout the day which was comforting especially with a new puppy & being unsure how he will react away from home for the 1st time. She’s so loving & attentive to every dog in her care. Cannot recommend her enough! We can’t wait to bring our fur baby back!”

About: Caring for dogs has been woven into my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by litters of golden retriever puppies, learning from a very young age what it means to nurture, train, and truly understand dogs. From the chaos of wiggly toddlers and clumsy paws to the quiet responsibility of daily care, that early experience shaped a deep respect for dogs as family members, not just pets. It taught me patience, consistency, and how to read a dog’s needs long before they can tell you themselves. Our approach to dog walking and boarding is grounded in that lifelong experience and in a home environment that is calm, loving, and structured. We don’t run a kennel — dogs in our care become part of our household. Walks are attentive and purposeful, playtime is supervised, and downtime is just as valued as activity. We focus on safety, routine, and emotional comfort so dogs feel secure while their families are away. Our home is also filled with life: we have two small, energetic children who adore animals and have been raised to respect them. Because of this, we only accept dogs who are truly kid- and toddler-friendly. In return, dogs get constant companionship, gentle interaction, and a lively but loving environment that mirrors real family life — not isolation or crates all day. Most recently, we said goodbye to our beloved girl, Nabs, who left a deep imprint on our hearts. Caring for her through every stage of life reaffirmed why this work matters so much to us. While we’re still healing, we’re opening our home to other sweet dogs and puppies who need attentive, trustworthy care while their families are away. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog with experience, empathy, and genuine love, we’d be honored to help. The house in many of the picture is our house in NJ and not in Bella Vista. When I lived there, I used to do rover and those are pictures of many of the pups I took care of :). I work full-time from home, alongside my husband. We both have flexibility to care for, walk, and play with pups throughout the day! I do travel some, but will block my calendar whenever I am out of town. We are accustomed to pet care because we recently lost our Nabs, so we miss taking care of dogs! Many of the photos are of our house in NJ, not the one in Bella Vista. I used to do rover over there and those are pictures of some of the wonderful pups I took care of!! I provide attentive, structured care tailored to each dog’s needs while maintaining a safe, calm routine. In my home, dogs follow a consistent daily rhythm that includes regular walks, supervised play, rest periods, and time enjoying our fully fenced backyard. Physical activity is balanced with downtime so dogs stay both stimulated and relaxed. I am comfortable with crates and can follow a dog’s existing routine, or care for dogs who do not use a crate. For safety and consistency, dogs are not allowed on furniture or beds. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. My goal in every setting is to provide reliable, calm, and compassionate care so pets feel secure and well cared for while their families are away.
About: I'm a colon cancer survivor which fur babies have helped me through a lot I'm all about them and taking care of them because they have been all about me throughout my sickness.... Now that I'm a little better I want to give back to the unconditional creatures that gave to me in a time of need...I've had Weimaraners in my household for over 15 years and have had other fur babies and animals before that throughout my life, this chance that I could have to provide the love and care for the parents of those fur babies that need it.

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.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since childhood. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I am the go-to gal amongst my friends and family when it comes to pet care! Pet care is a major part of my daily routine since I work full-time as a pet sitter and dog walker. My days are structured around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure each pet gets individual attention and care. My top priority is your pet’s safety and happiness. I am dedicated to creating a calm, positive environment where your pet feels confident and loved. In addition to the Rover Guarantee, I carry my own independent pet care insurance. This ensures that you, your pet, and I are fully covered no matter the situation.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have had them my whole life, so caring for them feels really natural to me. I love being outside, going on long walks, and spending time with animals. I’m very responsible and make sure pets are safe, exercised, and happy while their owners are away. I also enjoy learning each dog’s personality and routine so they feel comfortable. I’m currently saving money for college, so pet sitting is something I take seriously and put a lot of care into. I’m currently a senior in high school and my classes are only from 7:00–10:30 AM during the week, so I’m available late mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights. I graduate in about two months, and after that I’ll be fully available all day and night on both weekdays and weekends. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and understand how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, routines, and any special care. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and time outside while also keeping them safe and supervised. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated animal lover and proud dog mom to three pups of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets.

Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles and companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every animal as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions you provide, because I know the little details matter. You can expect consistent updates, photos, and open communication so you always feel connected and at ease. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and give your pet a happy, stress-free experience. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! 🐾 With three pups of my own, our home already runs on a pet-focused routine—morning and evening walks, scheduled meals, playtime, and lots of love in between.

I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and included—just like part of the family. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space while making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. No matter the setting, I prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾
About: I know how much you love your pet and how hard it is to leave him/her with someone you trust. I’m the same way. I decided to join Rover when I had to leave my pup, and my family wasn't available to care for her. I found someone who ended up being a lifesaver, and I wanted to help in the same way. I have cared for dogs from puppies to older pups, and love each stage. I can also help with any special needs your furbaby might have. I have watched family, friends, & neighbors' pups for ages and volunteered at the Roger's Humane Society for years. Hi! My name is Rebecca. Two things about me make me a great pet sitter: 1) I love pets & 2) I'm home all day. I want your pet to feel right at home. I am fortunate to work from home and create my own schedule, which allows me to adhere to your routine – whether that's set mealtimes or going for walks at a certain time each day – as well as plenty of time for lots of love and cuddles. I have a large home with a huge fenced-in yard and a Golden who loves to play. She's one of the reasons I joined. She's happiest when she has fur friends over and has never met a pup she doesn't like. Our home has a doggy door that leads into our large fenced-in yard, allowing your pup to go to the bathroom, go out and play, lie outside, and even sunbathe on the deck. It's completely up to them, and they can enjoy being outside whenever they want. I am happy to text and/or email with you as much as you would like, with lots of photos & videos – giving you peace of mind knowing your furbaby is not only safe, but they're having just as wonderful a time as you are.
