“Thanks for watching our dogs!!! Katie is great, one of our dogs can be verrrryy difficult with strangers and she handled it so well and was petting him by the next day! Would recommend 😃”
“Marshall and Marta are wonderful with Honey. She bonded with Marshall right from the beginning. I get daily updates and pictures. I feel very comfortable leaving her with them.”
“Janice was excellent as always, kept me updated every day with pictures and made sure to change it the water and litter. She also brought boxes in off the porch! We love working with Janice and will be sure to book her next time as well.”
“Lizzie was perfect. Our dogs loved hanging out with her. She took great pictures, she was on time and her communication was great. We’ll be using her again. Thanks for looking after the Nacho and Stella.”
“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!”

“Becky did a fantastic job with our 2 dogs. She showed up on time and even put in more time than with them than was asked of her. We have one dog that is a picky eater and she was able to get him to eat❤️. I would definitely hire her again and would highly recommend her.”
“Jordyn is awesome! She is so responsible and communicative. Our dog takes a bit to warm up to new friends and he loves Jordyn! Plus she always snaps the cutest pictures for the report card at the end of the visit!”
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.
“It was nice to come home and see my cats well taken care of and house not smelling. We are in the process of repairing the house and it can be messy but house was in good shape. I definitely was happy!”
About: The Highest Quality In Home Dog Care! My heart is so happy when I have a dog to love on and care for. I come from a family of dog lovers and have always had a dog in our home since I was a baby. Almost two years ago my fur baby crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈 and I really miss caring for him. I work from home, and would love to take care of your dog while you are at work or on a trip. I understand that it can be nerve wracking for you and your fur baby when you have to leave, and I can assure you that I will make their safety and well being my top priority. I also have experience with elderly dogs and administering medication. **I require a meet and greet before booking with new families. This is so important for all of us so we can make sure we are a good fit, you can see where your pup will be staying, and they can sniff around. -All dogs are required to be vaccinated and on a flea/tick medication. **I NEVER take more than 1 family/booking at a time!** I work from home and have plenty of time for cuddles, and play time. We can do walks as often as 3 times a day (weather/heat permitting), and lots of potty breaks. I am also available most weekends. We have a fully fenced and secure back yard with grass. It is just my husband and I living in the home, with no children present. **I NEVER take more than one pup/family at a time!** I will not take your dog to a dog park, or try to do a new physical activity. If your dog is not crate trained, that is okay. However, they must not be destructive.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Allen is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Allen
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! 🐾💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Allen on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,522 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Allen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
