“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!”
“Sara truly cares for animals and sends detailed updates which I appreciate especially so far away from my dogs. She is the best and I will be using her next time! Thank you Sara! 💜”
“Paige is absolutely wonderful. My dogs are pretty picky about who they like, but they absolutely LOVE Paige. She is so thorough in her care for my dogs, I’m truly impressed! Hoping to have her visit my girls while I’m at work on a regular basis.”
“Our family is so thankful for Kenzie! Our family’s elderly dog was having trouble standing up while my parents were out of town and my grandma, who was watching our dog, was not strong enough to help. Kenzie was able to drop-in on our beloved pup Heath last minute, give him some love and help him stand up so he could walk around and go potty until my parents got home! Thank you Kenzie!”
“Marta and Marshall were wonderful to communicate with and I completely trusted them to come into my home and take care of my boy. Rocky seemed to really enjoy their visits. I will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Blake was awesome taking care of Finn while we were away! She was punctual for all scheduled visits and very responsive to any requests or messages. Blake gave very detailed updates with lots of pics of our pup. She did a great job engaging with Finn, taking him for a walk for every visit, playing with him, petting him, etc. Blake was very sweet and generally took great care of our dog for the entirety of our vacation. I would highly recommend and will gladly rebook with her in the future!”

“Madison was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat, Monkey! We were out of town for almost two weeks, and Madison checked in on Monkey, fed her, and hung out with her. Madison kept us updated with great photos and videos that put us at ease that our girl was safe and happy. Madison sent photos of monkey eating and playing with toys, and we loved getting a video of Monkey watching a bird show on our TV! Thank you to Madison for going above and beyond, even cleaning the litter box and taking out the wet food trash when we didn’t have to ask. We are so grateful for your help keeping our sweet girl safe while we were away. Thank you!”
“Very wonderful experience, I highly recommend. Provided Photos, videos and messages about my 2 cats well being. Frequent check-ins. I would say trustworthy, reliable.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Allen
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.
Garrett and Jess were absolutely amazing! Leaving our pets behind is never easy, but they made the whole experience completely stress-free. They took such great care of both our dog and our cat and were incredibly thorough with all of our instructions. It was obvious they truly cared about our pets, and we loved receiving updates while we were away. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for pets meant everything to us. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care they provided and would recommend Garrett and Jess 100% to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring pet sitters. We will definitely be booking with them again!
Christa took amazing care of our French Bulldog, Minnie, while we were on vacation for over a week. She was reliable, communicative, and sent great updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by bringing in our mail and packages and doing our dishes. We truly appreciated her thoughtfulness and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Tiffany was wonderful with our dogs while we were away. She did drop-in visits over the week and kept everything running smoothly, so we never had to worry for a second. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals in her care. Our pups were happy, well-fed, and comfortable the whole time, and we came home to two content dogs and a tidy house. We'd absolutely book Tiffany again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter. Thank you, Tiffany!
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!!!
Becky has been absolutely amazing with my hounds, Levi & Leo. As a veterinarian working long hours, I worry about leaving them behind — but Becky always puts my mind completely at ease. She sends the best pictures and updates, so I can actually see how happy and loved they are while I’m gone. It’s clear they get lots of love (not just checked on!), and that means the world to me. I always come home to two relaxed, content pups and am so grateful for the thoughtful, attentive care she gives them. I truly couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter & highly recommend! 🐾💛
We are new to the area and needed help with our dog. We have never used a pet walker/sitter before, but Sarah has been a lifesaver! Our dog LOVES her visits and walks. She share pics and gives us feedback on how he's doing each visit. She even washed his bowls, and my morning coffee cup last time she was here. She's Amazing!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Allen stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Allen choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Allen with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
