“Our dogs had such a great time with Jocelyn. We recieved pictures of them everyday we were gone and they looked so amazing. She kept us updated on them and how they were doing as one of our dogs was working on his socializing, she was so patient with him. We will definitely be coming back to her for any future needs and just some play dates. So thankful for her!!!”
“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.”
“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!!!!! My two dogs are in love with her attention to detail towards ALL their needs!!! We will definitely use her and only her from now on!!! It is a blessing to find great humans with Big hearts to care for your babies!!!! Thank you Lord for Rebecca’s gift of truly caring for our dogs!”
“She was amazing. She sent me updates about Zuko at least once or twice a day with pictures of my baby too. He seemed happy at her place. She also helped me figure out how to start helping Zuko with separation anxiety through crate training. 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who will take care of your fur-baby like her own.”
“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.”
“Emily is the best! My senior Lab, Bo stayed with Emily for a long weekend and I could not be more pleased with the care he received. Emily kept in contact and sent photos while I was on my trip. It was so nice to be able to enjoy my time away and not worry about Bo! He was very well cared for and he loved the attention from his new golden retriever friend and Emily’s children. Emily is such an attentive, kind person and she will definitely be my go-to when Bo needs a sitter!”
“We were really impressed with the experience we had with Kay. Our dogs were so well cared for and had such a good time. Kay had other dogs for our girls to play with, they took our dogs on walks (even with all the bad weather), and they had a dog door and a big back yard. Kay kept us updated with pictures so we could see what the dogs were doing. We will definitely be bring our dogs back to Kay when we travel!”
“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!”
“Meagen took care of our dog like it was her own. She was very spoiled the short time she stayed with Meagen. Meagan was very attentive to our dog and kept us updated the entire time.”
“My experience with Elsy was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages. I could tell my dog felt comfortable and loved. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Excellent communication. My dogs were happy when I picked them up. I was nervous to leave my dogs b cause I never had left them before this past weekend. I felt very secure leaving Buddy and Louie with Ashley and Tyler. Will definitely be rebooking, I won't even consider leavingy pets with anyone else!”
“Christy is an amazing sitter. We boarded 1 year old cooper with her at short notice. She was totally fine with his puppy energy and shared her updates everyday. We were able to focus on our vacation completely as Cooper had a great time with Penelope and hilde. We cannot ask for more. She absolutely cares for your pet.”

“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!”

“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.”
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.
“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!!”
“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.”
“Elizabeth was such an incredible sitter for our dog! We were in town for 3 days on a cross country road trip, and she watched our pup while we were mountain biking and exploring Bentonville.

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.

“Harriet is absolutely wonderful!! She’s great at communicating and sends lots of pictures. Something that really makes her stand out is the love and care she gives to the dogs in her care. She treated my puppy like a part of her family, and I could see how happy and content he was when I picked him up. We’ve had many bad experiences with sitters on Rover, we’re so happy to have finally found an amazing sitter!! I couldn’t recommend her more!”
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’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.
“I’m so happy we found Laura. My pup gets super excited when we are pulling up to her home. He is always tired when he gets home which means he has so much fun with Laura and her family! From daily walks, to multiple pictures throughout the day, to special feeding needs, Laura takes care of it all. Highly recommended!”

About: I've been walking and checking in on friends' and family's dogs for years. I never got to have my own growing up, so dogs have always had a special place in my heart.

I'm new to Rover but I'm serious about building something here and I will always show up for your pup! I work full time during the week, but I have availability in the evenings and on weekends and enjoy staying active during my free time. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I do my best to be flexible, communicative, and reliable. My goal is to make pet care as easy and stress free as possible while making sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I currently offer walks and drop in visits so your pet can stay comfortable in the environment they know best. I take being trusted in someone else’s home very seriously and always aim to be respectful, organized, and attentive while caring for your pet. I know every animal has different needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

In my home I let my dogs on there dog beds, and one of them cuddles up to my husband. We feed them twice a day, same with our cat.
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 got a puppy when I was 3 and I’ve been caring for dogs ever since! Friends and neighbors have always trusted their pets in my care and the pets all love me too!

I currently have a flexible work schedule Monday through Friday. I am available most weekends as well. I love my flexible schedule so I’m able to pet sit and spend time with my own dogs! I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly dogs. I can come to your home for visits, walks, feedings, or take to park. I love being outside and enjoy taking my dogs with me to Lake Atalanta and other area parks.
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.

“Mia came in, grabbed the puppies, their things, and hit the road for some serious walking time. It was great to know my beloved puppies got some mid day excercise on a rare day when we weren’t home with them. We will ask for her again in a heartbeat!”
About: I started working with dogs with the washington county search and rescue team when i was 14. There I developed a passion to enrich the lives of our 4legged partners. I take every care with my dogs that i do with my children and know how difficult it can be to leave them. I enjoy helping others to provide exercise, stimulation, attention and shelter. I train walking and sit dogs as well as lawn care and maintenance. I have found these do well together and many times can provide both services together. Let the dogs in and/or out, take them for a walk or training, and can care for the lawn while there or go on to my next job. I have lots of experience with both young and older dogs. I can give oral medications and have experience caring for disabled dogs. I can bathe the dog

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.

“Our dogs had such a great time with Jocelyn. We recieved pictures of them everyday we were gone and they looked so amazing. She kept us updated on them and how they were doing as one of our dogs was working on his socializing, she was so patient with him. We will definitely be coming back to her for any future needs and just some play dates. So thankful for her!!!”

“Emily is the best! My senior Lab, Bo stayed with Emily for a long weekend and I could not be more pleased with the care he received. Emily kept in contact and sent photos while I was on my trip. It was so nice to be able to enjoy my time away and not worry about Bo! He was very well cared for and he loved the attention from his new golden retriever friend and Emily’s children. Emily is such an attentive, kind person and she will definitely be my go-to when Bo needs a sitter!”

Kay had other dogs for our girls to play with, they took our dogs on walks (even with all the bad weather), and they had a dog door and a big back yard. Kay kept us updated with pictures so we could see what the dogs were doing. We will definitely be bring our dogs back to Kay when we travel!”
