Personalized care for your dog or cat - Oppelo
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Oppelo
“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!”
“Leisha and Elijah have kept our two big boys twice for us now and do an amazing job! They’re great with communication, and their family gives the pups all the love they could ask for. I love knowing they’re in good hands when we have to leave them behind!”
“Samantha & her family cared for Rosie so well, like she was part of the family! Rosie has a lot of energy and their family and their own dog have Rosie so much attention and opportunity to play! They were so kind and great with communication and flexibility. Rosie will miss her puppy friend Jetta and their family! Would definitely recommend:)”
“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 .”
“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world. She was totally capable of meeting Mowgli's high-maintenance needs: rest, supplements, oral/topical meds, and dental hygiene. I look forward to future visits when he's healed enough to play with the other pups in the house!!! I can't thank this family enough💕”
“We were nervous to leave our dog since we had just moved to the area, but Bonnie took such good care of him and sent us updates with pictures to let us know how he was doing! We are very appreciative to Bonnie for how she cares for our dog and we will definitely request her for boarding or daycare services again!”
About: As a Vet Tech student, I provide expert care for dogs. My five-year-old mix, Stormy, and I love adventures and ensuring every pet feels safe, healthy, and happy. I offer full-time care every day. I prefer morning and evening sessions to keep dogs cool and safe from the heat, ensuring your pet stays active and comfortable. I live in a first-floor apartment with a fenced yard. Your pet will enjoy a dedicated room to roam free and relax comfortably without any cages.
“Maru was so wonderful and sweet to my dog, Titan. She made sure he was comfortable and sent lots of updates and photos. With 3 dogs herself she is obviously a big dog lover. I felt at ease leaving Titan with Maru and would book with her again in the future.”
“Alicia was super patient with our dogs when they decided to not be on their best behavior. She kept me updated on how they were doing during their long stay with her. They were well cared for!”
“Dawn and her husband were absolutely outstanding. Very nice people and made Pepper feel like she was at home. I never had any worries about leaving my dog with them for the week. They treated her like she was their very own. It made my trip better just knowing that she was in great care. Dawn updated me every day with pictures and kept me informed on how she was doing. I highly recommend them and will definitely reach out to her if and when I need a dog sitter. A+”
“William was excellent with Buster and Felicia. We had a meet and greet before boarding to make sure everything is in order. He was very responsive and I felt safe leaving my two dogs with him.”
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“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!”
“Lacey was awesome! She took great care of my dog, making sure he was comfortable at her home and had plenty of activity. She was very communicative and sent updates and pics every day. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and single mom of two who has always had pets as part of my family. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and am comfortable with other animals as well. I provide house and pet sitting during the times my kids are with their dad, which allows me to fully focus on your pets and your home. I’m a teacher, so I’m available on weekends and major holidays, and I understand the importance of routines, clear communication, and responsibility. I take pride in keeping homes clean and organized—and I always try to leave things better than I found them. Your pets will be cared for with patience, attention, and lots of love, just like they’re my own. I’m a full-time teacher and work weekdays from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m home and able to devote my time and attention to your pets. I attend church on Sundays and Wednesday evenings, but otherwise keep a predictable, low-key schedule. When I accept a booking, your pets become a priority in my daily routine. I’m intentional about planning my time around their needs—whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, or simply being present so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable and able to stick to their normal routine. Since I don’t currently have a fenced yard, this also allows me to safely meet each pet’s individual needs without disrupting their environment. I follow the pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter care, medications, and bedtime routines. I’ve found that consistency helps pets feel secure and reduces stress while their owners are away. I take time to help each animal feel calm and at ease—whether that means extra play, quiet companionship, or giving them space when they need it. My goal is always to provide care that feels familiar, loving, and dependable, so your pet stays happy and comfortable in your absence.

“Renee was so good with my cat. She went above and beyond in every area. She updated us regularly and made sure that our cat was well-cared for and happy. Renee is a terrific person and will be my go-to sitter when I need someone to take care of our pet 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!!!!”

Charsy sent tons of fantastic pictures and I could tell the kitties were being loved while we were gone.”
“Katie did drop-in visits for our cats. She was quick to answer questions prior to booking, and her daily updates kept me at ease while on vacation. I would definitely book her again.”
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 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.
About: Hi there! I'm thrilled you're visiting my profile. As a lifelong animal lover, I know firsthand that our pets aren't just animals-they are cherished members of the family. My goal is to give you absolute peace of mind by providing your furry family members with the highest level of attentive, personalized care, keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you're away.
About: I'm a relatively new cat owner, but I've been around cats all my life, either from taking care of my family's cats, my friends or the stray cats I find just out and about. No matter what, regardless of what kind of cat you have, you can trust that I will love and care for them just as much as you!
“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 bring real hands-on experience to every pet I care for — not just love, but knowledge: 6 years caring for cats — from playful kittens to senior cats who need medication and gentle routines. I understand body language, behavioral changes, dietary needs, and creating a calm, cozy environment. 5 years with bearded dragons — including proper temperature/humidity care, fresh salads, tank cleaning, supplements, and handling. I’m very comfortable with reptiles and their day-to-day needs. Comfortable with multiple pets, feeding schedules, and custom routines. I’ve also worked with pets needing medication, vet check-ins, and anxiety support — I always follow instructions carefully! Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with experience, patience, and daily check-ins 💛 Pet care is built right into my daily schedule — it’s not something I squeeze in, it’s something I plan around. Every morning starts with feeding, fresh water, and check-ins with my own pets, so I’m already in “pet parent mode” before the day begins. Here’s how I structure my routine: Morning: Feeding, potty breaks, or tank checks for my bearded dragons. I review the schedule for the day and confirm visits/walks. Midday: Drop-in visits, walks, medication if needed, and enrichment/playtime. Evening: Final check-ins, dinner feeding, and overnight care if scheduled. Flexible scheduling – I adjust my day depending on each pet’s routine so they receive care when they’re used to it, not just when it’s convenient. Since I already care for my own animals daily, adding your pet into my schedule feels natural. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own routine and keep communication open with updates, photos, and check-ins — no pet ever feels forgotten or rushed. 🚗 When I Care for Pets in Their Home: I follow your routine exactly — food times, treats, walks, meds, etc. I maintain your pet’s comfort & stability by keeping everything familiar Potty breaks / litter box cleaning Playtime and enrichment activities Fresh water at every visit Can administer medication if needed Clean-up included — no mess left behind Check-ins after each visit so you know how they’re doing --- 🐶 No Matter Where They Are — They’re Treated Like Family I provide love, patience, and care as if they were my own animals. Every visit or stay includes: Photo/video updates Routine check-ins Respect for boundaries & personalities Calm energy for anxious or rescue pets Safety first — always

Perfect for high energy dogs - Oppelo
“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: Caring for animals is my life’s passion and my favorite thing to do. I make sure every animal I meet feels loved. The time I spend with animals is very therapeutic for me. I have 4 years of experience with animal care! I started off with one neighbor who needed me to drop in and check on her dogs. I fell in love and I have been doing this ever since. I am always looking for new opportunities to bond with pets. I can easily match their energy to cater to their needs. I will play, rub, or provide outside time as long as they want. If needed I can help with training basic commands. I also have experience administering oral and injected medication with dogs and cats. I have a very open schedule so I am very flexible with timing. I love caring for and being in the presence animals so I will try my best to accommodate your schedule. I pay attention to what animals are trying to communicate with me whether they are anxious or just want their own space. Animals can sense that they can trust me and trust goes a long way when caring for them. I am very careful and cautious. Safety is my top priority.
“I think my Max is in the lap of luxury with Ranee and her mom. He has the run of the place, can look out the window, gets lots of attention. Thank you, Ranee, for taking such good care of my boy.”
“Maru is fantastic. She texts lots of pictures of your pet throughout their stay. As a first time Rover user, this helped calm any nerves I had. I have already booked her again for my next vacation.”
“Samantha & Matthew was awesome! Despite of slight schedule change, they took very good care of our dogs for my old parents taking to vet. I 100% recommend and hopefully can work with them again.”

About: From a young age I have always loved caring for pets. I started my own pet sitting business at age 10, and have been working with animals my whole life. My most recent position with pets was at a doggie daycare where I helped to monitor groups of 10-15 dogs at a time and loved every second of it. Through this experience I not only learned how to manage their behavior, but also how to keep them engaged and get their wiggles out. Dogs have always been part of my family and I know how hard it can be to leave your precious pup with someone you haven't met before. I will not only work to help get your dogs exercised, but also work hard to help them learn and have fun along the way.
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’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and caring for them has been a natural part of who I am.

Whether I’m in your home or mine, pets get careful supervision, consistency, and plenty of attention.
About: I have always been in love with animals of all shapes and sizes. I know lots of knowledge about the care and health needs of animals.

About: I've always been a dog lover! Love a super clingy couch potatoe more than anything but high energy is also welcomed as i have an all in one doggo myself. I'm a calm, easy going dog owner and your pets will be loved and in good hands. I am currently a stay at home mom and spend most of my days at home. My dog gets let out 4-5 times a day and fed and water refreshed twice and I could put your babies on his schedule or I can tweak my day if there are any specific needs for your fur baby! I completely understand that not all dogs are the same.. mine is very complicated in his own way but we are there for him when he needs us to be and that applies to your babies as well! I will take extra time to pay attention to the details in your instructions on how to care for your babies because things go more smoothly that way! Not to mention their care being my top priority when visiting your home and especially caring for them in my own home.
About: I have had animals of all kinds most of my life and have walked neighborhood dogs since I was a child. I love animals and your pet will be given individual attention.

I moved to Arkansas to enjoy the nature and outdoors. Flexible availability year round. I will do my best to make sure that your pet is happy and interacted with while you are not able to be with them and give you updates daily. Cats welcome! I am semi - retired and available to spend time with any pets that I host to be sure they are happy and not missing their owner too much. I have two very friendly large dogs to keep your friend company. We go outside and do walks often. We like to get outside and enjoy the weather.

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: 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: 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 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
“Thomas does a great job caring for my pup. Lots of photos/videos to keep me updated. Always ensured there was food, water. My pup was always greeted with head taps and ear scratches keeping him happy. Thanks Thomas!”
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 had pets and animals all my life! Growing up on a farm I’ve seen it all! My wife and I have fostered dogs and pet sat for years!!

About: I took care of my boys for just over 14 years, twin Shih Tzu’s, they were the loves of my life. They taught me more patience and much more research especially when they became seniors and required medications. After their passing I’ve been honored to take care of others fur babies, 3 goldens + 1 king cavelier and another’s cat. I loved every minute of spending time, walking, playing and even just sitting with them for company. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to help out with your fur babies whether you need someone to stop by for a few hours or need someone to watch them overnight. I will, with your instructions, care for your pet(s) just as you would. Currently I am unable to care for them in my own home.

“STOP. If you’re wondering whether to book Samantha, YES. She stepped in last minute for Riot. Her energy, her care, her updates… everything was next-level Samantha SAVED MY DAY! Riot was so happy on her walk and the photos she sent were adorable. 10/10 She’s incredible! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: Hello! My name is Katherine, but you can call me Alex (less formal and easier to remember) I've been around many kinds of pets all my life! Dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even some fish and I have always treated them with the highest amount of care and respect! So no matter what, you can trust that I will love, care for, and respect your pets as much as you do I don't have a job currently, so I'm pretty free up all the time. I can't do boarding or care at my residence, but I can do whatever care you need at your home. I can do whatever is needed, feeding, watering, walking, brushing, nail trims, baths, sneaking in the cheeky pill for the stubborn dog or cat. Basically any care you need from me, I can do.
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. 😁
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. The availability I have is on weekends and after 4 pm on weekdays, available holidays. Stay overnight and accept long-term stays (longer than one week). I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!

“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!”
“Leisha and Elijah have kept our two big boys twice for us now and do an amazing job! They’re great with communication, and their family gives the pups all the love they could ask for. I love knowing they’re in good hands when we have to leave them behind!”
“Samantha & her family cared for Rosie so well, like she was part of the family! Rosie has a lot of energy and their family and their own dog have Rosie so much attention and opportunity to play! They were so kind and great with communication and flexibility. Rosie will miss her puppy friend Jetta and their family! Would definitely recommend:)”
“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world. She was totally capable of meeting Mowgli's high-maintenance needs: rest, supplements, oral/topical meds, and dental hygiene. I look forward to future visits when he's healed enough to play with the other pups in the house!!! I can't thank this family enough💕”
“We were nervous to leave our dog since we had just moved to the area, but Bonnie took such good care of him and sent us updates with pictures to let us know how he was doing! We are very appreciative to Bonnie for how she cares for our dog and we will definitely request her for boarding or daycare services again!”
About: As a Vet Tech student, I provide expert care for dogs. My five-year-old mix, Stormy, and I love adventures and ensuring every pet feels safe, healthy, and happy. I offer full-time care every day. I prefer morning and evening sessions to keep dogs cool and safe from the heat, ensuring your pet stays active and comfortable. I live in a first-floor apartment with a fenced yard. Your pet will enjoy a dedicated room to roam free and relax comfortably without any cages.
“Maru was so wonderful and sweet to my dog, Titan. She made sure he was comfortable and sent lots of updates and photos. With 3 dogs herself she is obviously a big dog lover. I felt at ease leaving Titan with Maru and would book with her again in the future.”
“Alicia was super patient with our dogs when they decided to not be on their best behavior. She kept me updated on how they were doing during their long stay with her. They were well cared for!”
“Dawn and her husband were absolutely outstanding. Very nice people and made Pepper feel like she was at home. I never had any worries about leaving my dog with them for the week. They treated her like she was their very own. It made my trip better just knowing that she was in great care. Dawn updated me every day with pictures and kept me informed on how she was doing. I highly recommend them and will definitely reach out to her if and when I need a dog sitter. A+”
“William was excellent with Buster and Felicia. We had a meet and greet before boarding to make sure everything is in order. He was very responsive and I felt safe leaving my two dogs with him.”
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“Lacey was awesome! She took great care of my dog, making sure he was comfortable at her home and had plenty of activity. She was very communicative and sent updates and pics every day. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a preteen, having my own dog since 2013—well versed in all things dog, and I live less than five minutes from the nearest 24-hour emergency vet clinic. My pets are my life! I have a cat (10 lbs, female) and a dog (small terrier, 15 lbs, female) who are both spayed and socialized with other animals. The dog, Chanel, is especially fond of other dogs who are friendly, regardless of size. My cat's name is Ellie, a domestic shorthair, and she mostly stays away when there's another dog over. I have fostered dogs and kittens with local rescue groups as well as Little Rock Animal Village (LRAV). I am also a registered volunteer with LRAV. I'm currently working from home for the most part, other than going to a client meeting sometimes. I have cameras throughout the downstairs, where the animals will stay if I am gone. However, I spend quite a lot of time at home, which places me in a great position to be available to care for my pets and any guests I'm caring for, be it a foster, overnight or a board. I have a fenced-in yard, can go outside with the dogs, and I have a neighborhood that's walkable if that's a needed service. If I'm caring in a client's home, I go by their instructions and do not mind being flexible and keeping lines of communication open. I know pet anxiety, and sometimes we just want a little pic of our babies before bed. :)
About: I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends since I was 14 years old. I was relied on me to keep their dogs over night, feed, bathe, play with and take them walks. I am currently a grad student at UCA. I have class from 8-11 and get to come home for an hour for lunch. I then go to work in the clinic from 1:30-4 or 5 I then come back home and get to spend the rest of.l the evening with dogs. I have a doggy dog so that the dogs can go in and out as they please if the dog is well behaved and won’t tear up anything. I have two pets of my own. I have a 4 year old golden and a 8 month old mini Aussie doodle. They love other dogs and can keep your dog company when I’m gone.
