“Rachelle is the absolute best you can find in my opinion!!! She’s loving, sensible, loves fur babies, and knows what needs doing. This was my first time leaving my 2 young kitties and first time with Rover. Felt totally at comfortable knowing Rachelle had everything covered. She did everything I asked and more. I cannot recommend her more!! Thankyou!!!!!”

Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I prioritize reliability, maintain a flexible schedule, and ensure pets receive consistent, attentive care every single day.

“I wish I could give more than a 5 star review! My babies were so well loved while I was out of town. I got pictures and updates every day. Jingyi was a consummate professional and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!!”
“Kenzie was great, very friendly and reliable to work with. My cats are the type that tend to hide but she would find their hiding places and send me photos of them. She followed instructions well with what needed to be done for my girls and she would send photos once completed. I would definitely rebook and recommend her to anyone in the area.”

“I requested a drop-in very last minute and Ericka was more than willing to come drop-in on my two dogs. She was prompted and very detailed throughout the drop-in. I appreciate her and her son being very patient with my Chihuahua as he’s very skittish with new people. Would definitely recommend Ericka and book with her again.”
“Scott did an amazing job with our senior Dachsunds. He left detailed notes on their activities and the pics taken during visits were fun to see. We appreciate the care and attention he gave them while we were out of town and will definitely use him again!”
“Tiffany took great care of our pets while we were gone. She even brought in packages while we were away. Our cats were happy to see us when we came home. She is professional and she knows how to take care of our fur family. Thank you Tiffany.”
“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!”
About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional veterinary experience and a genuine love for animals. I have over 15 years of experience working in emergency animal clinics, general practice veterinary hospitals, and as an ICU technician at the Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center. That background has given me the skills to recognize when something isn't quite right, confidently administer medications, and provide compassionate care for pets of all ages, including seniors and those with special medical needs. Outside of work, my home is full of animals! I share my life with four cats, two dogs, a bunny, and a guinea pig, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll care for them like they're part of my own family, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I'm currently working part-time so have plenty of time to walk and play with your fur babies! My evenings and weekends are completely free too. I have a lot experience working with many types of animals. I'm very comfortable around any animal and can get to know and understand animal personalities quickly. I'm happy to do whatever is needed to make sure your pet is safe, healthy, and happy.

Adrienne was great with my 2 dogs! They both took to her immediately and her communication was great about how the visit went. She also sent lots of pictures and I can see that my dogs were very comfortable with her. She also has experience with dogs with a more special needs because my older gal has cancer, and has had a major surgery and she was very attentive to all of that. I will be using her as often as I can!
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.

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.
