“First time using Kendall! Very happy! All the pets were very well taken care of. Didn’t have to worry about anything. Will definitely be calling again. Even brought in my plants!”
“Kristen is such a great sitter to our older diabetic cat. She pays personal attention to Yoda and even notices everything about her which makes her even better at meeting Yoda’s needs. She is gentle and kind and takes care of everything else our absence may require. She is thorough and gives great feedback at every visit. I will request her help anytime we are gone.”
“Danielle was so sweet with Oscar! She was easy to communicate with and flexible, and Oscar clearly loved her. Knowing he was in such good hands made being away so much easier. Thank you, Danielle, for taking such loving care of our boy!”
“Great with Coco! She was reliable, communicative, and took good care of her while I was away. Coco seemed happy and well cared for when I got back. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have three dogs of my own. With 5 years of care experience, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’ll follow your instructions, keep your pets happy, well cared for, and provide updates while you’re away. I am currently in college. I have multiple days that I’m capable of visiting and taking care of your beloved furry family member. I’m completely capable of working around your schedule to fit mine as well. I’m available all weekends! Im routine oriented, and very adaptable, I will care for your pets the same way you would like me to, the same hour they are normally feed will be accomplished, your priorities will be mine. I will ensure to send photos to keep you at ease and ensure your beloved babies are safe and taken well care of.
About: I have over 9 years of hands-on dog sitting experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My professional background as a veterinary assistant and kennel assistant gives me a strong foundation in clinical safety, health monitoring, and personalized care. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a senior dog needing gentle attention, or requires specialized handling and medication administration, I ensure they receive structured, attentive, and loving care while you are away. I’m a college student living at home but only have classes Tuesday and Thursday and usually leave in the morning and come back in the afternoon Caring for pets in their own home allows them to stay in their comfortable, familiar environment. I respect both your pet’s routine and your home. During visits or overnight stays, I maintain their regular feeding schedules, walking routines, and play habits to minimize stress and separation anxiety. My background as a vet assistant and kennel assistant means I closely monitor behavioral cues, wellness, and safety while handling medication or special care needs with exact precision.
“Abby did a wonderful job and exceeded expectations! Abby was communicative and flexible. As this was my first time, she was the perfect person for Bella. I couldn’t recommend her enough and hope to continue to contact her first before using other people. Thank you so much Abby!!”
“Danielle comes twice a week and two times each of those days to take our dogs out. She is conscientious about documenting their time together and making sure they get exercise. Highly recommend.”
“I just had Will stay with my dog for the first time and he did great! Mabel is pretty high energy and she was very happy and relaxed when I got home. I will definitely use Will again :)”
“Maria was fantastic! Very communicative with updates about our kitties and included lots of pictures. She was very professional and was best friends with our more timid cat by the end of the week. Highly recommend!”
“Nakasha did an excellent job! she was very friendly, professional, and sent the cutest little silly updates with her visits to my dog. I felt very confident in her abilities when we met at the meet and greet. I was so grateful she came even during the crazy thunderstorm yesterday! I would definitely recommend Nakasha for your pets.”
About: I’ve had animals since I was five, and I worked a very eclectic range of animal care jobs between the ages of 16-27. (Dog kennel assistant, various humane societies, independent services; cross trained in necessary grooming, medications, and various animal care roles)
“I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for my pup while I was away. Kendra went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of and included. She treated him like her own. 10/10! Thank you!”
About: I rescued Griffin in 2016 from a shelter in North Carolina. Since then we’ve worked a lot on his fears and training - all self-taught/trained. I have experience both with oral medications, and injections (although the only injections I've ever had to do were on cats). I worked at a vet clinic briefly for a summer helping out with the animals that had to stay overnight. On the weekends, your pet will get plenty of play time with me. During weekdays, I am available to stop by for quick 30 minutes walks, letting your pet out for the bathroom, and feeding. I work 9am-5pm Monday through Friday so services will be worked around that or during my lunch hour. I love animals, especially rescues, and look forward to meeting your pet! I work full-time for the State but I work remote 2 days per week and have a flexible schedule to allow me to be home on days that aren’t my normal 2 work from home days. Weekends I am around and will be able to give your pet all the care they need. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible so I always let them check out my place before releasing my dog from my bedroom. I’ll set up your pet’s bed or they can use any of the ones I have for my dog. Nothing is left out that your pet could be injured on as I have a dog of my own.
About: I’ve owned several dogs over the years, and have helped family and friends with their dogs as well. I adopted a reactive pit bull and trained her, making great progress in her ability to meet new people, animals, and have new experiences, and want to help care for other animals now that she has passed. Happy to work with all kinds of dogs! I work from home so I am available during the day for quick walks and potty breaks, with time for a longer walk at lunchtime. In evenings, I often have theater rehearsals or recreational sports leagues, but am able to come home within a few hours. I am very comfortable in any environment, and I am willing to work in whichever way will make you more comfortable for your pet’s needs.
About: My 17 year old brownie passed in May 2026, and I had spent the last 15 years loving her, but her final 3 years caring for her in her old age. From cleaning the messes from an old bladder to hand-cooking her food for her allergies, I have learned the amount of care is different for each animal, and I am flexible with what is necessary to keep them happy. I am currently living a happy, unemployed life and excited to give your pet all the attention and time they need! Flexible on the weekends and weekdays. Your home is you and your pets’ safe space, and I respect every aspect of it and will keep it the way you left it. Clean, organized, and comfortable.
About: I have been babysitting and pet sitting for 5+ years. I love animals and always have! I love running around with them, taking them to the park, throwing their ball, playing tug of war, etc. Animals are family and should be treated as such! I am prepared for puppies all the way to old aged dogs. I have been around dogs my entire life and as they have provided me with happiness I intend to always do the same back. I am available to meet the animals before hand and have a meeting so that we know we are a right fit! Don’t hesitate to ask about any extra things while your gone like watering the plants, cleaning, or running errands. Me and your dog will have an amazing time! I am currently a nurse so my schedule is constantly changing. I typically work three 12hr shifts during the week! I just wanted to add this to my weekly regimen because this is something I did before becoming a nurse and miss. I am excited to meet you and your pets! I will care for your babies the same way I care for mine - with love, patience, and playfulness. I can also do extra care such as watering plants!
“Kristen was great with my dog Reggie and was so great working with me and my changing timeline for visits! I would definitely use her services again! Thank you so much for supporting us in our new adventure and for caring for Reggie when we couldn’t.”
“Noelani was super helpful with a last-minute booking! The flexibility and communication was so helpful and I am super grateful! Storm loved the time she got to spend with Noelani while we were away. Thank you for keeping her safe and comfortable and fed!”
About: There are no dogs in my household except yours! Specialized focused dog care for your furbabies. I dog sit as it is a way for me to get my exercise and maintain my needed fur baby time. I enjoy getting outside and the exercise. I only watch one dog or multiple dogs from the same family. I do not have any full-time dogs at home myself. I have two cats that love dogs (or go hide away - they do not bother dogs) I take care of your dog like my own. I will let your dog out and walk him/her every 2-4 hours. I don’t like dogs be left home alone more than four hours. I walk trails often and hit the dog parks regularly - if you allow that. I am self-employed and am in at out of my house all day. Most of the time I’m doing projects around my house or walking on the trails somewhere. I love taking dogs with and enjoying their company. Quiet household with ONLY ADULTS We have deeded Lake Macatawa Access and a park nearby. We are located on the Macatawa Bike trail (near Dunton park)

I cannot say enough positive things about Kaitlyn as our pet sitter. Our cat loves her, which is evident from the visit descriptions and respective photos. Kaitlyn seems to really get our cat’s personality and preferences (also noticeable in the visit descriptions and photos). This puts us at ease and is a really nice touch that Kaitlyn brings to the interaction she has with our cat. Our cat is extra happy, calm, playful and cuddly when we return, which is a sign that she was not stressed or upset about my husband and I having extended time away. We feel very good about using Kaitlyn as our pet sitter! We greatly appreciate her, and so does our cat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Allens Acres is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,560 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Allens Acres. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allens Acres. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. 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 sitter.
