“Britnney was awesome! Very kind and hospitable to us and our 2 dogs. Both of our dogs take medication. She asked all the right questions about how to administer them properly! Her home was clean and beautiful with a fenced yard. We would highly recommend using her for dog sitting! 10 out of 10! ?”
“Sergey and Lana took great care of our puppy while we went on a trip. Zoe seemed to have a great time and they even took her to the lake! They were very responsive and we really appreciated all the pictures they sent us of her days with them!”
“Cindy was amazing and very accomodating for a last minute day board. She allowed me to drop them at 7am and pick up at 11:30am so I could relax at the spa. Will 100% use her again. Lovely people. Her and her mom.”
“Could not wish for a better sitter for my babies!!!! This is our second time with Hannah and I can’t say enough great things about the experiences. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own. She’s amazing to send pics and videos as well. Highly, highly recommend!!!!!!”
“Sherri was great! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures on the many adventures she took Aurora. Her dog Indie is so sweet and seemed to be a great companion for Aurora. We would definitely recommend Sherri and Indie”
“This was Toula's first time with Andrew as a new sitter and after having lost her sister of 7 years not quite a year ago. Toula was in excellent hands with Andrew and his family and came home happy and healthy. I would definitely recommend and use Andrew again in the future :-)”
About: I raised my dog Rocky from when he was a puppy, so I’m experienced in caring for pets of all ages. I’ve pet sit many times before learning about Rover. Every pet is different, and I’m prepared to do my best to meet your pet’s individual needs. I believe a routine is incredibly beneficial to pet care, which is why Rocky is part of my routine. If your pet is staying with me they will be feed and walked first thing in the morning. Potty breaks throughout the day for pets with more frequent needs. Then second feeding and walk at approximately 6:30 pm. If I’m sitting at your place, if your pet has its own routine we will follow it, if not I will adopt a routine based on the environment. Previously, my house was a 3 dog 3 cat house. After some relationship changes, it’s just me and Rocky. Rocky is completely submissive, although he’s a Goldmation he very much embodies golden retriever energy, and gets along with pets of all shapes and sizes (like I said, 3 cats) When sitting at your house you can be sure that both your home and pets will be cared for. Cleaning is one of my favorite activities, so you might find your house is even a bit more tidy than you left it. And Rocky is very low maintenance and stays home when I pet sit, meaning that if you want me to spend as much time at your place as possible, I can do that.
“Madison is awesome. She sent us pictures almost every day of our vacation. We were extremely impressed with her care and compassion for our babies. We'll definitely be boarding with Madison again!”
“First time ever leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and she made me feel really comfortable trusting her with my boy and she did a splendid job of updating me and communicating with me.”
“She is very punctual and accommodating. She went out of her way in the cold weather to make sure it is easier for us to drop off and pick up our dog. Amazing is not enough! I definitely recommend her.”
“Melana was amazing with our two fur babies. She loved on them and is a true dog lover . She was willing to take on our big and little. . Her yard was fenced in with a tall sturdy fence and the house was very puppy to dog safe. Would definitely recommend to friends and family traveling through Hot Springs. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Joanne is cream of the crop. I get lots of pics and updates, Wynne has the time of her life, and Joanne loves Wynne! I feel safe and comfortable leaving Wynne with Joanne. We have booked with her many times before”
“Rebecca and her family went out of their way to make our first stay a great one. She suggested that we come over to get Lucy comfortable with being around Thor, and to be comfortable with the new surroundings for the upcoming stay. She sent us several pics and messages to let us know that Lucy was doing well and having fun. This was a great experience and we will definitely be back soon!”
About: I absolutely adore animals. I have my own dog, whom I trained myself. I have also spent many years pet-sitting dogs and cats for friends and colleagues while they were on vacation. I have more than 10 years of experience caring for animals. In general, I connect better with animals than with people. I am refuge from Ukraine, part-time working in the law firm as legal assistant, miss my dog who is living now with my mom in Germany and will be happy to help with yours. I will be able to come to your place and petsit your animal or have a walk with your lovely pet. I have already took care of dogs and cats here in USA.
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.

“My doggies loved Amanda and she was so great with them! I was so pleased when she came by and met them prior to dates of service so they could be familiar with her. I was shocked how much they trusted her. She took great care of them and was so loving and kind. She did great with taking pictures and updating us on how they were doing. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”

“This was our first time using Sierra and she was wonderful! We needed her for a last minute, week long, cat-sitting/house-sitting. I get very anxious leaving my cats with someone new but she made me feel at ease with lots of updates and pictures! Sierra was very patient with my stubborn girl kitty who doesn’t like strangers at all. She even cleaned, mopped, and did the laundry so everything was perfect when we got back!

About: Animals, specifically dogs and cats, have always been a key part of my life. I have a black lab of my own named Indy and she is my pride and joy. There are also several other dogs and cats within my inner circle that I absolutely adore. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your baby, and I would treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable and comfortable following even the most elaborate routine, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, recovery restrictions, or lots of extra cuddles. I also have several close friends and family members who work in veterinary medicine, including my cousin who is currently in her third year of veterinary school and is always just a phone call away. My schedule is extremely flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs rather than expecting their routine to fit around mine. Pets in my home will be treated just like my own—with lots of love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! The dogs in my home are very friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while they’re with me. Pets are welcome on the furniture and beds in my home, especially if that’s what they’re used to at home. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated at certain times, I also have a kennel available and am happy to follow their normal routine.
“Absolutely perfect experience. Brooke was so communicative and made our first trip from our farm in 2 years 100% stress-free. We got pictures daily and texts when everything was complete. We cannot thank her enough!!!!”
“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.”

“Mallory was great she stopped by when she said she would. I was new to hiring a stranger to take care of my two dogs and two cats. I had my house full of cameras and every time she came over she loved my pets, played with my dogs and even cleaned up the stuffing my dogs tore up from my couch. She was even lucky and was able to pet my cats and took care of feeding and cleaning the litter box. I will definitely recommend her to others and use her again in the future.”
“What can I say? Anastasiia won my cat, Julie's heart over. Julie does not like people, traveling or being alone so you can imagine the predicament. During our first meeting, Anastasiia walked in and Julie investigated, and let her be petted, immediately. I knew at that point. During my trip, Anastasiia sent updates and pictures of Julie playing and basking outside. I didn't have to worry about what was happening at home. If you are looking for a pet whisperer, Anastasiia is your sitter.”
About: I have had the privilege of owning pets of all kinds throughout my life and have enjoyed and learned from each as I considered each one a member of my family. With that, I understand that pets deserve respect as a living breathing creature and should be treated with the same dignity that you would give them. I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, pigs, cows, goats, chickens, fish, lizards, ducks, turkeys, and several others. I just enjoy animals overall and would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members! I work part time and attend college classes but I have plenty of flexibility and free time to ensure the proper care of your pets! I am very active and do not mind walking dogs to get that necessary exercise or just acting as a companion so they feel loved. As my two mini long haired dachshunds rule my household, I would need to watch your pets in your home or walk them around your neighborhood. I understand the trust it takes to allow someone into your home and your pets environment, but I want to ensure that your pets (and you) feel comfortable with any arrangement.
About: I’ve loved animals since before I could remember! I grew up in Scott on land with dogs, cats, horses, goats, birds, and fish! Now I have a border collie husky mix, he’s 4 years old. :) My work schedule differs every week so message me to see my availability. I consistently work from 7-4 Monday through Friday and the rest of the time will change! I have a very large unfenced yard where there is plenty of space for dogs to be themselves. I have plenty of toys that I could bring with me or have at my house for boarding. I could crate your dog if needed (not required at all).

I am a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator with AKC, and I am also licensed with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission as a wildlife rehabilitator (since 2019) Aside from working with native wildlife, I have personally owned a variety of pocket pets and exotic animals throughout the years and would be comfortable providing care for additional animal species, as needed! I am certified to teach canine and feline CPR & First Aid both to the public and to veterinary professionals (offered as approved RACE CE credit), and I am certified with FEMA through their “Animals in Disaster” preparedness course. I am proficient not only in identifying and interpreting canine and feline behavior (as well as other species), but I also have the advantage of medical insight. I often will notice things about your pet that perhaps you haven’t even noticed yet, or maybe didn’t realize was a concern. I was blessed with good intuition, and this has aided me greatly in my career with animals! Through years of working emergency medicine, I have become highly effective in triage methods and will know immediately what to do and how quickly to do it, should your pet encounter any type of emergency (trauma, toxicity, snake bite, heat stroke, neurological incident, etc.) I am comfortable administering medications through PO, SQ, IM, and IV routes, as needed or directed by a veterinarian. I am comfortable manually expressing bladders in both dogs and cats, and providing ambulatory support for pets needing assistance. Some of my clients wear doggy diapers and I am comfortable managing those, as well. I can provide basic wound care, bandage care, and give extra attention to pets needing any type of dietary assistance. My special skill in clinic was getting sick pets to eat, I am very good at it! In addition to the medical aspect, I also strive to support a healthy emotional environment. I will provide adequate and reasonable boundaries to ensure your pet is being respected, but also not letting them take advantage of the “new person!” I’m not going to overload them with treats or feed them extra just because they’re giving me the cute puppy eyes! If your pet is not allowed on the couch at home or when you’re away, I won’t allow that either. I truly understand the full-circle effects of how we treat our pets and strive to maintain high expectations when I’m responsible for any animals care. I am an open highway as far as communication goes and am happy to meet to needs and expectations for each client and family, custom to each pet. My schedule is very flexible. I took a break from working in a hospital setting in 2021 to complete my Bachelor's degree. Since then I have primarily worked from home but I maintain a current CVT license with the Arkansas Veterinary Medical Board. Working from home allows me the ability to accommodate boarding requests both in my home, or in yours. I can accommodate consistent and reliable walks or check-in visits throughout the week, and even last-minute requests. Your pets will be treated as part of the family whether in my home, or in yours! They will get extra love and attention and be pampered and played with constantly. I enjoy taking pictures and videos of your pet, and will check in often regarding their care! House Sitting: House sitting services are offered in your home, with your pets. I can accommodate exotic animals and small pocket pets, in addition to cats, dogs, and horses. There is not much I cannot care for! Offering all the amenities of in-home doggie daycare, house sitting provides the comforts of home with the assurance of a highly trained veterinary professional providing around-the-clock care. In addition to being attentive to your furry-family members needs, I will care for your home as if it is my own. I will clean, check mail, collect packages, water plants, etc. so when you get home, you will have nothing left to worry about except enjoying time with your fur baby! Prior to my departure I will clean thoroughly and make sure your home is in tip-top shape for your arrival! I work from home and am able to take my work with me, which makes my schedule very flexible! Holidays and weekends are flexible, as well. Last minute requests? No problem! Safety is my top priority. Pets will be diligently monitored. Doors will be kept shut, gates will be secured, and dangerous items will be kept out of reach. Your home will be cared for as if it was my own using the Girl Scout Code of, “leaving it better than you found it” as the core principle for my services. :)
About: I am a very responsible and loving pet owner. Growing up around cats and dogs my entire life, I understand that each pet has their own unique needs. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. :) I am currently a med student, so my schedule is very flexible. I hope to work with you to best meet you and your pets needs. I currently have two cats, so providing care for your pet in my home may not be the best option depending on your pets comfort level. If I were to care for your pet in your home, I will respect your home and ensure your pet is cared for in any way needed.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m very attentive and dependable, and I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe and happy. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and my goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both of you! So i currently am i xray tech and ma at Baptist urgent care in Little Rock, and my schedule is put out to where i work a couple days in a row, and then I’m off for a couple days and I get bored with those days I’m off and I want something I love to do! So in my house I have 3 dogs, I have a fenced in yard and I also have sun shade around my entire fence! My top priority is my dogs safety no matter what! And with someone’s else’s babies their safety always comes first!
About: Hello! I’m Tara, and animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, and horses, and I competed in eventing through my mid-twenties—so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My significant other, Mike, and I work together as a team to provide attentive, 1:1 in-home boarding with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to accommodate special routines and needs (senior care, medications, shy/anxious pups, or high-energy dogs who need extra play and structure). Tell me what helps your dog feel safest and happiest, and we’ll tailor their care to match. I work in childcare part time and Mike is a gig worker with a very flexible schedule. We work together to give your dog the benefit of in person care. Regular business hours are preferred but not mandatory. We strived to meet your dog care needs and requirements while giving your babies all the love and attention they deserve. We may ask a lot of questions but the more we know, the better we can customize the care for your dog. We have a nice size yard with. We also have a large deck for lounging.
About: I am an animal lover through and through! As most, i’ve grown up caring for dogs and cats. I just can’t get enough animals in my life- I love all pets! From dogs and cats to reptiles and fish, I can care for any pet needed. I have experience with specialty pets such as rabbits, geckos, lizards, guinea pigs… if you own it i’ve probably cared for it! I have experience volunteering at the humane society, and my current volunteer efforts are at Arkansas Pet Rabbit Network.I truly love getting to know your furry (or scaly😉) friend of any kind. I have a love for older furry friends and experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I am a part time worker during the week, with much free time to dedicate to your babies! I can drop in during the week, or offer full time care fridays-mondays. I can do whatever you need for your pets in the home. When i’m with an animal, they’re my #1 priority! Even if your baby has oddly specific needs- send em my way!

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!
“There are never enough words! We were so lucky to have such quality care from Destiny. In a time when we truly needed the most for our two babies. She made sure that our girls got the best care and we got so lucky to receive so many great images of our babies having fun on their midday walks. 10/10 Destiny is your go-to call for 5 star care!”

“I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kalina and her family! They took care of my Brooks like he was their own! And I got lots of pictures and videos which gave me a peace of mind knowing he was in great hands! We will definitely be regulars!”
“Sergey and Lana took great care of our puppy while we went on a trip. Zoe seemed to have a great time and they even took her to the lake! They were very responsive and we really appreciated all the pictures they sent us of her days with them!”
“Cindy was amazing and very accomodating for a last minute day board. She allowed me to drop them at 7am and pick up at 11:30am so I could relax at the spa. Will 100% use her again. Lovely people. Her and her mom.”
“Could not wish for a better sitter for my babies!!!! This is our second time with Hannah and I can’t say enough great things about the experiences. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own. She’s amazing to send pics and videos as well. Highly, highly recommend!!!!!!”
“Sherri was great! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures on the many adventures she took Aurora. Her dog Indie is so sweet and seemed to be a great companion for Aurora. We would definitely recommend Sherri and Indie”
About: I raised my dog Rocky from when he was a puppy, so I’m experienced in caring for pets of all ages. I’ve pet sit many times before learning about Rover. Every pet is different, and I’m prepared to do my best to meet your pet’s individual needs. I believe a routine is incredibly beneficial to pet care, which is why Rocky is part of my routine. If your pet is staying with me they will be feed and walked first thing in the morning. Potty breaks throughout the day for pets with more frequent needs. Then second feeding and walk at approximately 6:30 pm. If I’m sitting at your place, if your pet has its own routine we will follow it, if not I will adopt a routine based on the environment. Previously, my house was a 3 dog 3 cat house. After some relationship changes, it’s just me and Rocky. Rocky is completely submissive, although he’s a Goldmation he very much embodies golden retriever energy, and gets along with pets of all shapes and sizes (like I said, 3 cats) When sitting at your house you can be sure that both your home and pets will be cared for. Cleaning is one of my favorite activities, so you might find your house is even a bit more tidy than you left it. And Rocky is very low maintenance and stays home when I pet sit, meaning that if you want me to spend as much time at your place as possible, I can do that.
“Jessica took such good care of my spoiled pup who is never away from me. It’s nice to know Bella has a place to stay if we need one. Being able to stay and sit with people on the couch and get covered up with her blanky at night and sleep next to people is much better than being boarded somewhere.”
“Madison is awesome. She sent us pictures almost every day of our vacation. We were extremely impressed with her care and compassion for our babies. We'll definitely be boarding with Madison again!”
“First time ever leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and she made me feel really comfortable trusting her with my boy and she did a splendid job of updating me and communicating with me.”
“She is very punctual and accommodating. She went out of her way in the cold weather to make sure it is easier for us to drop off and pick up our dog. Amazing is not enough! I definitely recommend her.”
“Melana was amazing with our two fur babies. She loved on them and is a true dog lover . She was willing to take on our big and little. . Her yard was fenced in with a tall sturdy fence and the house was very puppy to dog safe. Would definitely recommend to friends and family traveling through Hot Springs. ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I absolutely adore animals. I have my own dog, whom I trained myself. I have also spent many years pet-sitting dogs and cats for friends and colleagues while they were on vacation. I have more than 10 years of experience caring for animals. In general, I connect better with animals than with people. I am refuge from Ukraine, part-time working in the law firm as legal assistant, miss my dog who is living now with my mom in Germany and will be happy to help with yours. I will be able to come to your place and petsit your animal or have a walk with your lovely pet. I have already took care of dogs and cats here in USA.
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.
