“I am on maternity leave and decided I definitely needed help walking our husky. I truly adored Chloe and would absolutely have her again! She is punctual and our dogs loved her. Thank you, Chloe!!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up with pets and have been caring for animals most of my life. My family has a farm, so I’m very comfortable around all kinds of animals and understand the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your fur babies like family while they’re in my care! I work full-time, but I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and live just 5 minutes from work. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine and provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent, loving care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles when they’re wanted. I’ll also keep you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy and safe while you’re away. I do have a fenced in yard. I currently do not have any pets of my own so it will be a free comfortable space for your fur babies
About: I have hands-on experience with dog sitting and basic pet training, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether it’s high-energy puppies who need structure and consistency or older dogs who thrive on routine and gentle care, I adjust my approach to meet each pet’s individual needs. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and supervision throughout the day. I already have a dog of my own, and I’m very structured and committed to maintaining his routine and schedule. Because of that, caring for other pets blends seamlessly into my lifestyle. My day is built around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods, so adding another pet simply means extending the same level of care, structure, and attentiveness. Working remotely also gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, engagement, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods.
“Moe was a HUGE help when I needed someone last minute! She was prompt, patient with my 4 month old puppy Kaia, and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. She went above and beyond what I expected from a dog walker, and I really appreciated her flexibility and how she put me at ease knowing Kaia was in great hands. I’d absolutely recommend Moe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker! Kaia can’t wait to hang out with Moe again!”
“All I can say is AMAZING. Nicole went above and beyond for me and my dogs. She sent photos of them while I was away. She made sure they had food and water, she even recommended medicine for my dog Bailey who has chicken allergies. Nicole worked my lock box flawlessly. She was so helpful and warm. I wish I could give her more stars. I would definitely book with her again and again. Nicole is the best.”
“Caroline was timely and communicated with me about the walk and how my pupper was doing. She made sure my dog’s water bowl was replenished after their walk. Would recommend Caroline!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Allendale
I was a first time Rover user, due to boarding at a local pet daycare not working out. I have two in tact opposite gender fur babies, who have never been cared for by anyone but their in home family….us. My family and I went on a 5 day vacation and needed to have them walked 3x per day. Due to the turnaround time, the walker needed to be booked within 48 hours. Being a novice, I thought I would need to cancel my family’s vacation. Cheyenne accepted my booking and was such a gem! Cheyenne went above and beyond during the 5 days she was booked to walk my two fur babies. She was so kind to keep with their walk times to the minute. She was never late and always on time. My two fur babies took to her immediately, which to me was the best feeling as a fur parent. She even taught me how to use the Rover App! She sent pictures as a part of their walk report card. I know Cheyenne will now be our go to, anytime we are needing a qualified and loving sitter! Thank you so much Cheyenne again for taking our booking. 🥰
We couldn’t be happier with Maria! We have an 11-week-old puppy — so basically a tiny, chaotic bundle of energy and uncertainty — and Maria was an absolute dream. She took her time, never rushed, and got right into the pen to play with him like she’d known him forever. She took the time to really understand what we needed, asked the right questions, and then executed everything perfectly. You could tell she genuinely loves dogs and isn’t just going through the motions. Our little guy was happy, tired, and clearly well-loved by the end of it. If you have a young pup and want someone patient, caring, and totally trustworthy — book Maria. We already have. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Chelsea is amazing! We adopted our sweet Nala only 3 weeks ago, We were very nervous having someone we don't know come in and take care of our pets but we did a meet and greet with her and she made our worries go away. She answers all of my questions and responds super quick to anything I need. Chelsea makes sure our sweet Nala is taken care of even if it's for a short walk. Our baby is defiantly an energetic dog and Chelsea helps burn out all the bottled up energy by playing and going on fun nature walks and more! She sends lots of updates and photos which I love because we aren't home throughout the day so its very nice to know our baby is taken care of! We also have a Chihuahua and a cat that dosent need care when Chelsea comes but she goes out of her way to say hello to them and gives them attention and love. I highly recommend Chelsea as she is very kind and gentle with our sweet girl!! Our animals love to see her come in!

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 walker.
