“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!”

“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.”

“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”

“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.”

“Hannah is an amazing sitter! She sends multiple photos and updates throughout the stay which always makes us feel as though our pup is well taken care of and loved while we are gone. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Scout was great! Very interactive with sending photos while we were away on our trip and our pup Layla got some much needed adventure while on the farm with Scout and her family too!”

“We were very comforted leaving our dog, Jack, with Jennifer and her family. He had a long 10 day stay with them. We loved the pictures she sent and the update as to how his day was going. We felt he was well taken care of and that was a huge deal for us. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our fur baby!”

“Thank you for taking a great care of Marven. We very much appreciated that you sent us pictures of her with an update daily, which helped us feel at ease that Marven was happy and well-taken care of. Thank YOU!!”

“Marci was a great sitter for my dog Hank! I could tell from get-go that she’s experienced with taking care of pups and that she treats her pup Sadie amazingly too. She was a great communicator with fast responses, and answered all my questions to make me feel confident about having her watch Hank. Would absolutely recommend and use her again!”

“Jackie is the best! Spot is high energy and has separation anxiety and Jackie handled it all like a pro. Spot was so happy with him and his wife over the weekend and I was happy I didn’t have to be anxious. I knew Spot was in great, caring hands!”

“Christina was very flexible with my constantly changing scheduled. She was very professional and has an expert level of knowledge when it comes to dogs and dog training.

“I cannot recommend Mandy highly enough! My two fur babies don't have a ton of experience around other dogs, and one of them ended up being quite shy. Mandy was so kind and so wonderful with them (as were her sons and husband) and sent me LOTS of pictures along the way...which certainly put my mind at ease. Proof that they had a good time? They have done nothing but sleep since they got home! :) Thank you, Mandy! Shelley, Piper and Oliver”


“This was my first time using Rover since my Vet was booked, I came across Julissa and she was very flexible with my last minute needs and flexible with my drop off and pick up times. She provided updates as needed along with photos of playtime, walks and was very responsive when I wanted to check in on my pup. Hopefully she will let us come back if needed! 😊”


“Lesa is always so good with my babies! And, once again, VERY accomodating. I really love the pics and updates on them...even when out of the country! :) Such a sweet family. I'm so glad to have someone I can trust with my sweet babies.”

“Amazing Job. Everyday they gave us updates and pictures of our baby, she seemed extremely happy with the situation, would definitely use again and I recommend any one else to use this couple as your sitter they were amazing!”

“I don’t know what I can say that hasn’t already been said, but don’t hesitate to book with Rebekah and William. We had a previous bad experience with a Rover sitter so I was extremely nervous to try again. Rebekah and William were so sweet and treated our dogs like they were their own. I was afraid they wouldn’t want to come home! They are clearly animal lovers and even very understanding of the little quirks and imperfections our dogs have. We left them for 2 weeks which was so stressful but Rebekah and William put our minds at ease with daily photos and updates. Will definitely use them again.”

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.

“Lisa is an absolutely Wonderful sitter. She took care of my two cats for a couple of weeks and went above and beyond what I ever would have expected her to do! She stayed in contact every visit and sent some cute videos and pics. I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa for any of your pet sitting needs! =)”


“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.”

“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!!!”

“Renee is AWESOME! I have a couple of scaredy-cats for babies, one being especially more afraid of strangers than the other. By Renee’s second or third visit, that super scaredy-cat was sniffing up on Renee and giving her a chance. So when she says she’s an animal whisperer, she’s legit. Renee is very personable and very clear with her communication. I will definitely be utilizing her services in the future! Thank you Renee!!!”

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'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!

About: I grew up with cats. I rescued Hidey a few years ago, a grey kitten who was very shy but is now quite outgoing. I cat-sat through college and am hoping to get back into it. I've had experience with shy cats, lap cats, lazy cats, and cats that get the zoomies and bounce around the room. When I stop by I’ll make sure they have food, water, a clean litter box, and try to play with them or cuddle them if they’re interested. Would love to play or snuggle with your cat or check on your shy cat from afar.
“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.”

“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 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.

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.

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.

“First time taking my 5 month old dachshund to daycare and it was a great experience! She got lots of love and attention. They even sent a picture!! I highly recommend booking with Samantha & Michael!”

“I couldn’t have been any happier! Ranee & her Mom are just the best! They took care of my 2 little dogs like they were their own. I was kept up to date with photos. When I came to pick them up you could tell they had had a good time. Ranee was very attentive & watchful & I was given details of how they behaved, played, potty, etc. I will definitely be using Ranee in the future!!!”

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 :)
“Taylor is the most professional dog-sitter we’ve ever had! Polite, responsible, communicates very well and sends updates without being asked! She took very good care of our baby!”

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 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 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.
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.

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.

If you would not like the extra help please let me know and I will not bring them.

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 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.

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.

“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!”

“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.”

“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”

“Hannah is an amazing sitter! She sends multiple photos and updates throughout the stay which always makes us feel as though our pup is well taken care of and loved while we are gone. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Scout was great! Very interactive with sending photos while we were away on our trip and our pup Layla got some much needed adventure while on the farm with Scout and her family too!”

“We were very comforted leaving our dog, Jack, with Jennifer and her family. He had a long 10 day stay with them. We loved the pictures she sent and the update as to how his day was going. We felt he was well taken care of and that was a huge deal for us. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our fur baby!”

“Marci was a great sitter for my dog Hank! I could tell from get-go that she’s experienced with taking care of pups and that she treats her pup Sadie amazingly too. She was a great communicator with fast responses, and answered all my questions to make me feel confident about having her watch Hank. Would absolutely recommend and use her again!”

“Jackie is the best! Spot is high energy and has separation anxiety and Jackie handled it all like a pro. Spot was so happy with him and his wife over the weekend and I was happy I didn’t have to be anxious. I knew Spot was in great, caring hands!”

“Christina was very flexible with my constantly changing scheduled. She was very professional and has an expert level of knowledge when it comes to dogs and dog training. I would suggest her to all my closest friends. She was great ! I will most definitely book her in the future , If I could give more stars I would !”

“I cannot recommend Mandy highly enough! My two fur babies don't have a ton of experience around other dogs, and one of them ended up being quite shy. Mandy was so kind and so wonderful with them (as were her sons and husband) and sent me LOTS of pictures along the way...which certainly put my mind at ease. Proof that they had a good time? They have done nothing but sleep since they got home! :) Thank you, Mandy! Shelley, Piper and Oliver”


“This was my first time using Rover since my Vet was booked, I came across Julissa and she was very flexible with my last minute needs and flexible with my drop off and pick up times. She provided updates as needed along with photos of playtime, walks and was very responsive when I wanted to check in on my pup. Hopefully she will let us come back if needed! 😊”

“Amazing Job. Everyday they gave us updates and pictures of our baby, she seemed extremely happy with the situation, would definitely use again and I recommend any one else to use this couple as your sitter they were amazing!”

“I don’t know what I can say that hasn’t already been said, but don’t hesitate to book with Rebekah and William. We had a previous bad experience with a Rover sitter so I was extremely nervous to try again. Rebekah and William were so sweet and treated our dogs like they were their own. I was afraid they wouldn’t want to come home! They are clearly animal lovers and even very understanding of the little quirks and imperfections our dogs have. We left them for 2 weeks which was so stressful but Rebekah and William put our minds at ease with daily photos and updates. Will definitely use them again.”

“As always our girls were given the best care by Amber and her son. We had to extend the stay by one night due to unforseen circumstances and Amber was so understanding and accommodating which in turn relieved so much stress as we were out of town. We cannot thank Amber enough ❤️”

“Very good experience. My dog can’t talk but, looks like he enjoyed it at her place. Very well informed about him so, we didn’t have to worry much. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter. I always used boarding facilities. I think this is better for him instead of sitting in a kennel all the time. I would definitely go to her again if we need.”

“Kenzie eased our anxiety about leaving our one year old pup. This was our first time to use Rover and we we really appreciate her daily updates and pictures and videos. She was very responsive and we look forward to asking her to pup sit for us again”

“Madi took excellent care of our girl Pepper while we’re traveling for a couple of weeks. Pepper came home very happy and healthy. We’re so grateful to Madi for looking after her for us!”
