“Mary is absolutely amazing and was able to come last minute to take my dog out for a potty break and feed her breakfast. she is very communicative and makes me feel at ease!!”

About: I've always had animals growing up. My mom use to let me rehibilitate hurt animals or abandon animals. I've also worked at various boarding facilities and daycares. As well as a vet hospital. I have background with not only dogs and cats. But reptiles, amphibians, fish, and so forth! I have a dog and 4 cats! I love taking care of animals! I also have various tarantulas and scorpion! I don't discriminate on kind of animal! I am very versatile, my baby Mable is the sweetest lab and loves to play! I also have crates if need be. I love to go on walks, can bring your dog to the doggy park or even on a hike. But I also can stay at home and hangout if your dog needs someone to just care and love them!
“Chanel was responsive, timely, and provided great updates throughout her visits. She did a very thorough job and made us feel at ease leaving our pets for a long weekend. We will definitely be asking her back for more visits in the future!”


“Thank you so much, Tiffany. I was comfortable leaving my babies with you. I would highly recommend you and I will be using you again on my next trip. Thank you so much.”

“I had never used any type of service to help with my Whiskey River (lab), so I was extremely nervous about trying it out. Alyssa, did a great job. She not only walked Whiskey (did the job I asked for), but she also notified me of a potential bowel issue and asked if it was normal. I really appreciated that! She did a great job checking on Whiskey and helped me be more at ease while I was away! Thanks, Alyssa! I will definitely be hiring you again in the future!”

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for them! I’ve had pets since I was young, fostered dogs (including caring for an entire litter of puppies), and have been dog sitting since I was 16. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who require gentle, attentive care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your fur babies are in caring and capable hands until you return home. I’m currently a full-time student at CCU taking online courses, which gives me a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets and be available for a variety of care needs. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. During walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, and adjust the pace based on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs. For visitations, I make sure your pet is well cared for by following all instructions closely, whether that includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, or administering basic care. I also take time to give them attention and affection so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I respect your home, keep things clean and secure, and can provide updates and photos so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and happy.
About: As a dedicated and experienced petsitter, I have a natural ability to connect with animals, making me a trusted companion for your furry friends. My deep understanding of their needs, coupled with my patience and attentive care, ensures that every pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared-for in my presence. I'm very active with the animals, ensuring they get plenty of playtime and exercise. I also prioritize communication with pet owners, frequently answering texts and sending photos and videos to keep them updated and at ease. My goal is to create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners. ❤️ I wake up very early around 6 or 6:30 for morning walks then I get ready for the day. I make breakfast then I’m on my way to the dog park. I have a patio with a doggie door and it’s gated around it. I take extra good care of cleaning up messes made by the animals.
“Kyia did amazing with Kila! Even though my baby is not a baby anymore she can be a sassy old girl. She was great with her. Her report cards were great to read while I was on vacation (and the pics too).”


About: I’ve been around animals for years and love spending time with them! I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m patient, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, playing or just keeping them company. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so I love having opportunities to get outside and spend time with animals. I’m happy to work pet care into my weekly routine and can coordinate with owners to find times that work for both of us. I’m dependable, communicate well, and will make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any specific needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll always follow your instructions, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outings, and make sure they’re safe in their environment. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own.
About: I have had a dog all 18 years of my life. Most of this time we had two dogs, so I am used to handling multiple dogs at a time! I am home from college for the summer and do not work a part time job currently, with this free time, i am able to give these animals the care they need almost 24/7. In my home, I have a very friendly dog and also a fenced in yard where they can go run around and play in. As for clients houses I will abide by their rules completely and contact them if I have any questions. Their house will be left the same or cleaner than they left it and their animals happy!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats frequently since middle school, often in house sitting settings as well. I have had dogs throughout my entire life and have many friends with cats and have spent ample time with them. I have dealt with numerous animals with health issues or problems, including older pets and puppies. I understand the value of all the little unique things that are important to an owner to ensure their pet is taken care of, healthy, protected and loved to their standard. My family rescued a puppy this past year, and I took on a large responsibility in training and watching him during his more crucial stages. I have worked with and spent time around multiple rescued animals and understand the value of creating a comfortable environment from them and extra care to detail as they often have triggers from past experiences. I also work with puppies through a local breeder and have learned a lot about puppies and their development. I am a skilled problem solver, know how to communicate well and can recognize when over-communication is important. I manage my time well and feel that people in my life would consider me an overachiever in all things I do. I love animals and miss having them to interact with while at school; therefore, time spent with them is always valuable to me. I am currently a full-time student at Coastal Carolina University and play club volleyball. I have always worked and played a sport full time alongside school, and after transferring here recently, I have found myself with time for a job. With a schedule that makes my routine look different day by day I have found this would be a great fit as I can be flexible in working with clients. My weekends are free and I have lots of longer gaps throughout my day between classes which could be valuable to those who have to leave their pets for long periods of time. I'm from colorado so going home is not an option for me often and widens my availbilty. I have experience working in apartments, houses, ect of all kinds. Often my pet care includes house sitting which I am very comfortable with. I understand the value and basic decency of respect to others homes and possesions. The golden rule is a fundamental aspect of how I operate in my day to day and I would never do something I wouldnt want done to me, my pets or my home. I am a very honest person and would not hesitate to communicate anything that happens in my time with clients pets or their homes. Honesty is the best policy and valuable in maintinging proper care. I am a great problem solver and have lots of experience with handling conflict. I have grown up very indepentdent and am confident people in my life would consider me to be highly reliable and responsible. Positions as team captains, tutoring and as an RA speak to these traits.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting independently for several years, caring for dogs in their own homes where they feel safest and most comfortable. I understand how important it is for pet parents to have someone reliable and loving looking after their pets while they’re away. In addition to my personal pet sitting experience, my family and I have helped care for foster dogs for local rescue organizations, which gave me experience with dogs of different ages, temperaments, and special needs. From energetic pups to shy or anxious dogs, I’ve learned how to be patient, attentive, and calm so pets feel secure. When caring for your pets, I focus on: • Keeping their routine consistent • Giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise • Making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. Your pets will be treated like family while you’re away. 🐶🐱 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I schedule my day to allow consistent, unrushed visits so your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they’re used to. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are happy and safe while you’re away. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep the home secure, and make sure pets are always safe and supervised. I also send updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have over five years of hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, and I take pride in providing dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, exercise, playtime, companionship, and maintaining an animal’s regular routine while their owner is away. My experience with both household pets and larger farm animals has taught me to be patient, responsible, observant, and confident when caring for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule and am available for pet care Monday through Friday after 2 p.m. I can also provide morning and overnight care when house-sitting in the pet’s home, allowing me to be there for their morning routine, meals, walks, and companionship. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal schedule and provide consistent, attentive care while their owner is away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care.

I offer house-sitting in the pet’s home, allowing them to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I’m happy to follow specific care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, crate use, and playtime, while providing dependable and compassionate care.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for over 15 years, and caring for them is truly my passion! I have extensive experience caring for all types of animals, from newborn puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience, specialized attention, and medication. I spent several years working at PetSmart in the grooming salon, where I cared for dogs and helped ensure they were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I also volunteered for six years at an animal shelter in Prattville, Alabama, where I bathed animals, provided daily care, and gave them as much love and attention as possible. Every animal deserves kindness, compassion, and a safe place to feel loved. My experience with senior dogs is especially extensive. I currently care for a 13 year old Dachshund who uses a wheelchair for mobility and experiences seizures that require medication. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, close observation, and understanding each pet’s individual needs. I’m also a proud dog mom to seven wonderful dogs of my own: Bruno and Zarra, Great Pyrenees and Blue Heeler mixes; Chewie, a Pomchi; Ottie and Steel, Chihuahuas; Brody, a Golden Retriever and Pit Bull mix; and Rizzo, a German Shepherd. Having a diverse pack of my own has given me even more hands on experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. When your pets are in my care, I treat them like family not just another booking. I understand that your pets are precious members of your household, and trusting someone with them is a big deal. My goal is to make sure you feel confident and comfortable knowing your fur babies are receiving the same love, attention, and compassion I give my own. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a curious kitten, an energetic adult, or a senior companion who needs extra care, I am here to help! I believe every animal deserves to feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved. 🐶🐱❤️
About: I adopted my own boy and learned a lot just from our short visits in the shelter. I was asked to volunteer at the shelter for my strong dedication to helping him learn and providing the love he needed. I currently work at the hospital with an unusual shift. My schedule does vary, but I’m ready to fill my extra days loving in some fur babies! I have my own dog and know the worry of having to leave them by themselves. I will take care of your fur baby like my own! Unfortunately I will not be able to take any dogs into my own home as my current dog is animal aggressive from being attacked previously.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Allen is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $56 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 742 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Allen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
