“We had a great experience with Leisha & Elijah and family. It’s a little scary to take your fur baby to a new environment, but prompt communication eased our minds and hearts. Pictures that were sent to us daily showed that Paisley was treated like family and she was having fun. We will be calling them again when we need boarding.”
“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!!”
“KK had the best stay with her new animal friends! She played so hard that she mostly napped the rest of the day after I picked her up. Scout was super easy to work with and sent pictures of my girl with updates. Highly recommend!”
“Madison and Isaiaih did a great job sitting my dog . I enjoyed the videos and pictures they shared with me where I could see my dog happy and well taken care of . I will hire them again should I ever need a dog sitter in the future.”
“Bonnie has a beautiful home with huge yard. She was quick to answer questions. Mason seemed to enjoy his visit. Bonnie was super sweet and met us in Hot Springs the next morning, so we could get on our way easily to Memphis.”
“As always, Jackie is amazing! No one loves our pup better when we are away. It’s like our dog is going to the grandparents house and gets spoiled with love and attention. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!”

“My puppy Thunder is a handful and being a Ridgeback still needs a lot of work. I appreciated Christina's professional guidance on how to continue to train him. It helped him out to be at her house and under her care.”
“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!”

“Christian, Ruth and there 2 children are the nicest people and they took good care of my 2 dogs for an overnight stay. They live on a dirt road surrounded by woods and have a small farm of chickens, bunnies, and goats. They took the dogs out several times for walks in the woods near there home. They have a fenced in area in the back for the dogs as well. It just a really nice environment for my fur kids to be while I'm gone. Plus Ruth sends lots of pics and videos! We will definitely be using them in the future!”

I highly suggest that you consider contacting her if you are in need of pet-sitting services. Garfield will see you again soon, Renee!!!!”
“Madeline was a great support during our vacation trip. Daily updating us on kitties, showing up on time, and taking care of them like we do every day. She ensured to play with our three little energy-balls every day to distract them from not being outside while we were gone, and we got back home to happy babies.”
“Linda was just absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond in every instance. She spent time with Niah and brought her bandana’s and played ball with her. We felt so at ease having her taking care of our little fur babies!! Thank you Linda!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets with care. I’m a football player at UCA, so my schedule stays structured and consistent. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting around practices and weekends. I care for pets in their own homes, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and treat every home with respect.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness. Also have experience with chickens, goats, and pigs and how dogs interact with changes in their environment. I’m free most days, everything that I need to do is on my computer and can be done anytime and anywhere. I’m flexible and can fit into most clients’ schedule. I let them out when they want out, play when they want to play, and clean up any mess so that the client comes back to a just as clean or cleaner house and pets
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous leaving my fur kids with a stranger. I shouldn't have been though, because Miranda was fantastic! She spent extra time and attention on my shy kitties, and kept me updated with every visit. I will absolutely book with her again.”
“She has been the best thing my fiancé could’ve asked for when it comes to making sure our babies are taken care of. Whether it was the dog, cat, or sometimes both, she showed them the same love and care we show them. I wish there was more I could do to show my appreciation for everything she’s done. Booking rovers for sitting, walking, or just drop in visits is not cheap, but knowing our babies were in safe hands while we were gone is priceless. Thank you Charsy!!”
“Lexi has helped us with our dogs on multiple occasions and she is always amazing. She communicates if there is a concern, she cleans up if the dogs make a mess, and she is very reliable. We are so grateful for her! Definitely recommend!”
“Katie was patient and understanding as we worked through Rover's payment system SNAFUs. She communicated wonderfully and kept to all my requests in taking care of my three cats during their drop-in visits. Would most definitely recommend! :)”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, we’ve always had 4 legged fluff balls included in my family. I currently have a boxer/catahoula mix whose name is Apollo but I call him derp, he’s the best thing since sliced bread. I’ve only been dog/house sitting for about 3ish years as my friends and even regulars at the bar I work at have asked me to sit for them. My parents also work at hounds hideaway that has a vet built in so if anything were to happen all it would take is a phone call and we’d be set! Rest assured, your baby is in good hands. My schedule is currently open to do drop ins anytime of the day and to house sit. I’m currently waiting on my new job to give me hours and I will keep this updated. My Apollo is 8 years old so he’s a lil bit of an old man and is typically pretty lazy, but I take him for lots of walks and spoil him with treats and luvins. I even tuck him in with a blanket every night.
About: I am very passionate about animals and I absolutely love dogs and cats. I have grown up around dogs all my life, and I got my first dog at 16. I have been taking care of my fur baby Max ever since. I understand that being away can be tough on both pets and their owners, but my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for you and your pets. Before pet sitting on Rover, I worked with children of all ages at a daycare. I am currently a medical scribe and full time college student. My services include checking on pets at your home and walking while on their stay. While you are away, I will send you daily updates and pictures of your fur babies to give you peace of mind.I usually care for animals in the comfort of their own home, and I make it a priority to gather all the necessary information to ensure that your pet experiences minimal disruption to their routine. I am currently a college student and scribe. I will typically be free after 11 am on most day during the week. I will be free on most weekends after 9 am. Before booking, I like to get a good understanding of your dog's behavior. Please let me know if your pet has any aggression (toward food, toys, etc.), unique quirks, or separation anxiety that makes it difficult for them to be left alone. It's also important to understand how your dog reacts to other dogs, in case of any unexpected encounters during walks. I’d love to meet your dog while you're present to gather as many details as possible about their daily routine. This helps me ensure minimal disruption while you're away. I will treat your pet like my own and I prefer written instructions to maintain their regular schedule. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in good hands. If your pet has any special needs or behaviors, please let me know. For example, if they have an anxiety jacket for thunderstorms, please share where I can find it, along with any other items I might need to care for them properly.
About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 3 years, she is a pitbull so I am good with dogs of all breeds and most importantly strength! I have taken care of all dogs of all ages. I get off work fairly early and I am off on the weekends so I like to keep myself busy, I think the best way to stay busy is to do something you enjoy and animals bring me happiness. My dog always have water and would spend at least 1-2 hours a day outside. When I watch other peoples dogs I make sure they have water and spend a little time outside to play and run around.

“My 16 year old yorkie was in good hands with Samantha & Matthew B. I appreciate all the Rover sitters for opening their homes and hearts to help care for other's dogs. I had traveled to another state for my grandson's graduation and needed a sitter while I attended the ceremony. The invitation was last minute, but Samantha & Matthew responded quickly. Anyone with a beloved family pet understands what a relief it is to have a way to find good people care for their pet while they are traveling. Thank you for taking care of my dog.”

“Hoss had a wonderful Time at Leisha’s. She was so thoughtful and made me feel so comfortable about my dogs stay with her. I’m booking her for more days right now!!!”
About: Me and my wife Anna love animals - we both grew up with several dogs, and we currently have chickens :) We’re very active and would love to have your pet join either me or Anna for walks, hikes, or a game of fetch! Our schedules are flexible, and at least one of us would always be available whenever you need our services. Another great thing about choosing us is that we don’t currently have any pets in the house. If you’re looking for a peaceful temporary home for your pet where they will get plenty of individual attention, we’d be a great fit! We are very flexible and can fit you in at any time! Though it's worth mentioning that we go to bed quite early, so the latest walk we could schedule would be around 5-6pm. We really think the key to a happy pet is just going with their natural rhythm. If they’ve got energy and want to play, great - walks, toys, all the fun stuff! If they’re resting in a sunny spot and just want to relax, that’s cool too. And of course, we always listen to the owners; you know your pet better than anyone, and we follow your lead :)
About: I have been a familiar face to many families and their animals for eight years as a nanny. I've also always had a furry friend in my own home! I enjoy taking dogs on walks, being lazy with cats, and caring for them in between. I would love to help you out by taking care of your animals when needed. A weekend a way, or a mid day check in while you're at work. Your pets will be in good hands with me. Thank you! Checking in on your fur babies during the day and weekends are no problem at all! Reach out with any questions or concerns regarding your pets. I would prefer to keep an eye on your fur babies in the comfort of their home! Having their parents gone is already stressful enough, much less switching up the environment.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and caring for them has been a natural part of who I am. I have experience with pups of all ages, including senior dogs who need a little extra attention. I’m comfortable helping with medications, mobility support, and the slow, gentle care older dogs deserve.

About: I’ve dog sat since I was a kid. I’ve had experience with all different dog breeds and extensive needs. Our dogs should be loved just like our children. I’m currently a nursing student looking to pick up a couple of hours here and there. Just looking for a extremely flexible schedule. I’d love to care for your fur babys. My husband and I are experienced dog sitters. Our home is completely “pet proof”. We have a mini golden doodle puppy named Parker. I’ve dog sat for over ten years.
“Scharmel has come to spend time with my cat Henry on a couple occasions. She is so good with him and I know he is always happy to have her visit. I love that she goes out of her way to send pictures while she's playing with Henry so I know he's doing well. I feel like the most important thing with a sitter is trust. You trust them the life of your pet, trust that they'll spend the time with your pet that you asked them to, and even trust them with the keys to your home. I can definitely say that I trust Scharmel more than I have trusted other sitters in the past, and we can't wait to have her come visit again in a few weeks!!”

About: I am a stay at home mom so, I can do checkins an potty time while you are at work. I have a pretty open availablity. I can do extra lovins while you are on vacation or out of town for work. I currently have 2 big dogs and a bird, I have had cats as well. I am ok with snakes and reptiles, just no spider type pets please. I love working with animals. My doggos are a bit older and both rescues. I have no problems dealing with medical issues and accidents. I have always had animals as long as I can remember, I can't imagine coming home to clean wintows and no happy wiggles and barks. I would treat your babies like mine. I am at home most days and rarely travel. I live in Morrilton but I am in Conway frequently. I have worked as an elderly care giver and had animals my whole life. I have a very nurturing spirit. I haven't met an animal I don't like. My kids get embarrased when I talk to animals I do not know as we walk down the street. I can't help it, it's the look in their eyes. They want lovins and I am a sucker for big floppy wiggles and waggs. I would be happy to care for your pets in your home. Caring for pets in my home is not an option at this time. We rescued a doggo from a dog fighting situation and have been able to get him ok with most people and our other dog, however he is not ready to make friends with other animals just yet.
About: I have owned animals since I was a small child, now grown I have a house full of pets that I call my own. I often pet sit for friends and family. Animals need to feel safe and cared and I will strive to bring those to your home each visit. I have experience across the spectrum of animals and all stages of life from needy pups to the "grumpy" ole men and woman. I also have experience providing oral medications. I'm currently available for pet care services throughout the day. I am available 7 am - 3:30 pm Monday - Thursday, 9 am - 10 pm Friday - Sunday. I will not be providing boarding services in my home but I am able to visit your home as much as necessary to take care of your pets, including in home visits. I have 3 kids and a husband who may assist in the visits but will never be the primary care giver to the animals. My kids have taken after me and love helping and meeting new animals. If you would not like the extra help please let me know and I will not bring them.
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Charsy is such a nice and sweet person. Our dog looked so happy after the walks. She always kept me updated and made the experience to be a 10/10. She treated our dog so good and with a lot of kindness.”
About: Hi! I’m a grad student and lifelong pet owner who really misses my dogs back home. I’ve raised and cared for dogs most of my life, including my current Labradoodle and Australian Shepherd. We got my labradoodle as a puppy and he is now 4. My Aussie was a traumatized rescue that I helped rehabilitate into a well-adjusted dog. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own! I am currently a grad student who attends class in the mornings and early afternoons Monday through Thursdays. I can take care of your pet before 8 am and after 3 pm on those days. I am available at all times on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Since I focus on walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their own environment and sticking to their usual routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and any specific needs. During visits, I make sure they have fresh water, a safe space, and plenty of attention. On walks, I make sure dogs are securely leashed at all times, avoid unsafe situations, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and will always make sure everything is left secure and just as I found it.

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for years, and I have two of my own—so I get it. I’m super dependable, really patient, and honestly just love being around animals. I care about doing things right and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. Right now I don’t have much going on, so I’m super flexible and can fit pet care in pretty much anytime. I’m taking a class, but I can work that around whatever schedule is needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, just being honest, but my dogs are super friendly and love other dogs. I can crate your dog if needed or keep them separate—we have a whole downstairs area I can stay in with them if that’s more comfortable. I’m also happy to take them on walks as often as needed to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness.

About: I have owned 3 dogs and 3 cats. I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have dog and cat sat many times for friends and family and hope to get to know your pets. I’ve had experience with a sick pet when I took care of my dog Layla, before her unfortunate passing. I hope to get to know your pets and increase my experience. I love and adore all different pet personalities and would like to get introduced to your pets before taking care of them. So both you and your companion know they are in good hands. I’m currently preparing for college and running a small business crocheting and selling small crafts. Which makes me very flexible on time. I’m free all summer. My home is unavailable for pet sitting, but I would be happy to take care of your pets in a place that is comfortable for them. I understand pets need lots of space and will make sure to give your pets the opportunity to get to know me within their own boundaries.
About: Just call me the “animal whisperer.” I’ve been caring for all breeds and sizes since the moment I could walk. My compassion for animals doesn’t end with my own furbabies, it multiplies so that I can provide the same royal treatment to others like I do for mine: I provide pet care as my full time passion at the moment. My availability is open and flexible, and I can even be contacted on short notice for holidays or emergencies. I treat all animals as if they’re my own. I currently am available to board or provide doggie daycare in my own home for one pet at a time, as well as drop in visits, dog walking, and part time house sitting if needed!
About: I’ve owned various dogs and cared for many different animals all of my life. I also studied Animals Science and have a strong passion for animals and their well being. With the season slowing down over the summer I will be very available. I am also interested in staying active and in shape which is why I believe this is a perfect fit for me right now. When in a client’s home I will follow the exact instructions given to me and make sure to not disrupt anything in their homes. I am solely focused on caring for the animal and making sure they are safe and well.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, we’ve always had 4 legged fluff balls included in my family. I currently have a boxer/catahoula mix whose name is Apollo but I call him derp, he’s the best thing since sliced bread. I’ve only been dog/house sitting for about 3ish years as my friends and even regulars at the bar I work at have asked me to sit for them. My parents also work at hounds hideaway that has a vet built in so if anything were to happen all it would take is a phone call and we’d be set! Rest assured, your baby is in good hands. My schedule is currently open to do drop ins anytime of the day and to house sit. I’m currently waiting on my new job to give me hours and I will keep this updated. My Apollo is 8 years old so he’s a lil bit of an old man and is typically pretty lazy, but I take him for lots of walks and spoil him with treats and luvins. I even tuck him in with a blanket every night.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for parents & friends since I was young. As a personal trainer I love being active and why not help other pet owners out with care and getting their pet some of the physical activity they need. My dog can only take so many walks 😂. I am currently working a full-time a fitness director at a local university but am available during the morning hours before work and evenings after work. Available for entire weekends and can stay over the weekends. I will follow any specific instructions you have regarding your pet, but can provide, walks, baths and playtime or just chill time and company if that’s what your pet prefers. Just like humans pets have their own personalities. 😁

I’d love to meet your dog while you're present to gather as many details as possible about their daily routine. This helps me ensure minimal disruption while you're away. I will treat your pet like my own and I prefer written instructions to maintain their regular schedule. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in good hands. If your pet has any special needs or behaviors, please let me know. For example, if they have an anxiety jacket for thunderstorms, please share where I can find it, along with any other items I might need to care for them properly.
About: ***5/27/26 Update-My husband and I moved to Arkansas January 2026 to help with his families business in North Little Rock. My hours vary at work, either from 8-5, 10-7, or 10-5. I feel this is important for pet parents who ask for house sitting, to know ahead of time. I strive to always be transparent as my #1 priority will always be the animals. They deserve the best I can offer and I do my best to keep their routine seamless in your absence. I do prefer 2 days notice to allow for adjustments at work, and if emergencies arise outside of that window, please do not hesitate reach out. I’ll do what I can to accommodate 🫶🏼 Thank you for your understanding!*** Pets are not just pets, they're family! Raised with cats and large breed dogs I am no stranger to being ignored, head booped, games of 'tag', fetch, and water play. I look forward to sharing some exercise, playtime/chilltime/grubtime with your fur babies! In need of a pet concierge? Look no further—I’m basically your pet’s personal concierge, ensuring they get everything they need! Potty breaks, walks, and food + water refills included! When you’re away, I’ll step in as your pet’s in-home bestie—making sure they’re safe, happy, and totally spoiled (in the responsible way). I follow your pet’s regular routine to a T—meals on time, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and all the snuggles they’ll allow—because consistency is comfort. I’m big on attention to detail, so I’ll keep an eye on the little things too (mood, appetite, energy, the “I definitely didn’t get into anything” face), and I’ll treat your home with the same respect. Basically: your pet gets VIP care, and you get peace of mind—plus a new furry friend who thinks I’m pretty cool.

“We had a great experience with Leisha & Elijah and family. It’s a little scary to take your fur baby to a new environment, but prompt communication eased our minds and hearts. Pictures that were sent to us daily showed that Paisley was treated like family and she was having fun. We will be calling them again when we need boarding.”
“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!!”
