“Kenzie was fantastic! We were gone about 2 1/2 days and had zero doubt that our dogs would be cared for. They loved her the moment she walked in for a meet and greet. Every time she came, she took photos of them for us and they were so happy. We will be using Kenzie again.”
“Daniela was absolutely amazing with our dogs! Our biggest, most anxious dog was immediately comfortable with her! She sent great pictures, kept us updated, and was more than willing to accommodate our changing schedule. She gave our pups an extra treat on national dog day to make them feel special! Will definitely use her in the future!”
“Heide is awesome! Never since I have been using Rover has my fur baby responded so favorably to a caretaker! She’s purring and fed and happy and I so appreciate that and will definitely book Heide ag!”
About: I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets, especially through raising my own dog. I have a German Shepherd/Black Lab mix who I’ve raised on my own since he was 6 weeks old. I’ve been responsible for his training, exercise, feeding, and everyday care throughout his life. I also previously worked as a Veterinary Technician Assistant, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals and became familiar with handling pets in a professional veterinary setting. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of responsible pet care, animal behavior, and the importance of providing pets with patience, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’ve also regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets when they’re away, whether that means taking them on walks, stopping by to feed and check on them, or simply giving them some extra attention and companionship. These experiences have helped me become comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I truly enjoy making sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. My schedule may show limited availability, but I’m always open to discussing dates that aren’t currently shown on my calendar! I work full-time during the week and typically get off around 3:30 PM, so my availability can vary depending on the service and care your pup needs. I’m generally more flexible on weekends, but I’m happy to discuss different dates and see what may work for both of us. Because I work full-time and am also completing my master’s degree through an online program, I want to make sure I’m able to provide your pup with the full care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I’d rather make sure a booking is a good fit for my schedule so that I can give your pet the time and care they need while you’re away. I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable person who absolutely loves spending time with animals. I enjoy giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship while their owners are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I take their safety, comfort, and routine seriously. I’ll make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping you updated throughout their stay. Whether your pup is energetic and loves to play, enjoys going on walks, or is happiest curled up getting some extra love, I’d be excited to spend time with them! I provide attentive, loving care based on each pet’s individual routine and needs. For weekend overnight sitting, I’m happy to stay in your home and keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routines. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and care before I leave. I’ll always follow your instructions closely and treat your pets like my own. I also love sending lots of pictures and videos throughout my visit or stay so you can see how your pets are doing and have peace of mind while you’re away!
“Lizzie is great with Cocoa! My husband and I can tell that Cocoa is happy when Lizzy visits. Lizzie definitely goes above and beyond every time she does a drop in! Thank you!”
“Clara was amazing at making sure sky was well taken care of and stimulated every time she came over! She was patient when she first met him, and understanding of his needs because he has trouble being around new people but Clara had no issues with it and was able to find a way to work with him. If you have a fur baby or pet that needs special care and attention, Clara is the person to hire! Always took pictures and was respectful of the space. 10/10 would highly recommend!”
“Kayla is wonderful! Very sweet and patient with both of my pups (7 y/o shepherd mix and 15.5 y/o Bichon). Took on the little bit of extra care my older dog needed too! On time to all visits and kept me posted with everything going on and some very cute pics. You can tell they were happy and well taken care of! Highly recommend!”
“Great communication and loving care! My cat took to him immediately and I knew she would be in good hands. Joe not only made sure Kimchi was well taken care of, but he also ensured our home stayed tidy (even with our little monster loose).”
“Natasha is awesome! She has great communication, is so sweet and accommodating, and I feel at ease trusting her to drop in to check on my cat. I'll be booking her again!”
“Calvin and his wife were absolutely fantastic. They took excellent care of my little fur baby for four days. I’ll definitely be using their services again, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of pet care.”
About: I’ve always grown up taking care of family and friend’s pets as if they were my own. I believe pets are just as important as any other family member, so I always treat them with love, care, and respect. I currently work on an as needed basis within healthcare, so when I am off I would be more than happy to help care for your pets! I would approach your home with the understanding that it is your pet’s safe space - I will do everything to make sure they feel at ease and keep them happy!
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and in college I looked after my roommates' and friends dogs of all sizes and temperaments ranging from pomeranians to german shepherds. I've also housesat pets for extended periods of time. I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample time to look after and entertain your pets! I'm available on weekdays to housesit from 8am to 6pm! On the weekends, I can walk your pets or even take them out for a couple of hours weather permitting. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of just like how you would care for them! I am very proactive regarding communication, both positive and negative, and I make sure to ask clarifying questions if I have any doubts to ensure I understand the pet's needs and requirements! I live in the suburbs so my environment is very quiet, however I do not have a fenced backyard so I would prefer not to host any pets unless they are mostly indoor animals.
“Zach was wonderful! He took great care of Miss Churro and even went above and beyond bringing in some large boxes that were delivered when I was away! Definitely recommend him for puppies or any pets!”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and always treat every pet like my own. I’m reliable, follow care instructions carefully, and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM with Allen ISD and part-time at HEB on Sundays from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. My part-time schedule is flexible and can be adjusted for bookings when needed. I offer house sitting in the client’s home, where I stay overnight and care for your pets in their familiar environment. During house sitting stays, I follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. On weekdays, I may be away during work hours (8 AM–4 PM), but I return immediately after work to continue care and maintain consistency for your pets. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. Service Areas: Allen, McKinney, and Plano I’m committed to keeping your pets comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I care for pets in the client’s home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are always secured, and I double-check all entry points to keep pets safe at all times. I also monitor pets closely for behavior changes, stress, or health concerns and will immediately communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual. If the home has a fenced yard, I use it for safe outdoor time and supervised play. When outside, pets are always monitored and never left unattended. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean and following all house rules. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable, and trustworthy environment so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up on a farm, I was constantly surrounded by animals and learned early on how to care for them with patience and compassion. Since I was five, I’ve had dogs and cats, rescued and bottle-fed baby kittens, trained countless puppies, and even had a hedgehog at one point! I currently have two dogs and a puppy of my own, and I also help my dad care for his dog when he’s out of town—walking her, bathing her, and treating her like she’s part of my own pack. Every animal I care for gets the same level of love and attention as if they were my own. Whether it's senior dogs needing a slower pace or high-energy pups who love to play, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have the flexibility to work from home or anywhere when needed. I’m off nights and weekends, and I’m also able to step away during the day for morning walks, midday check-ins, or drop-in visits. Whether it's a quick potty break, playtime, or some extra cuddles, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, their comfort and safety always come first. I create a calm, loving environment and make sure to follow your routines as closely as possible—whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, daily walks, or bedtime habits. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I'm attentive to details, keep things clean, and always double-check that doors, gates, and crates are secure. If I’m hosting in my home, your pet will have a peaceful space to relax, play, and feel right at home—away from chaos and stress. Building trust with both pets and their people is important to me, and I’m always happy to provide updates, photos, or answer questions so you feel at ease while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Allen
Our cats are very shy with strangers but Garrett & Jessia understood and did not force an interaction. They waited until our cats were ready for attention and checked in on them daily while we were on vacation. They are the first pet sitters we have ever had and we will definitely be booking again!
Natasha takes great care of my dog and cat! My dog Barry is starting to really take to her, and he gets excited when she comes over! Ari, our cat, also seems very intrigued and happy to see Natasha on each visit. I will continue to use Natasha’s pet sitting for sure!!!
Rachelle cared for our kitten and two senior cats while we were in Japan. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away because of the confidence we had in her care. She was communicative, flexible when an ice storm changed our travel days, and gave our cats lots of love. We will definitely book with Rachelle again!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allen. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
