About: Not only have I grown up around dogs my entire life, I was a dog trainer for five years and have experience as a dog groomer as well. Dogs have always had a special place with me and I have been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. Looking forward to bringing that care to you! I’m currently working part-time and am a college student. However, mornings work great for check ins and I have a flexible evening schedule. Reach out and I’m sure we could work something out! My early mornings are Mondays when I work at 6:30 am and Saturdays I work 4am-12:30pm. Wednesdays and Thursdays I work until 9:30 pm but would be more than willing to do a check in after my shift! With my background in animal care and dog training, I have experience dealing with all varieties of dogs and cats and I love getting to know them and their unique personalities! My dog, Kai, is very important to me and I know how much trust matters when having someone check in on him and my goal is to be that person for you and your pets!
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals, including dogs 🐕 , cats 🐈 ,rats 🐀, chameleons 🌈 , iguanas 🦎 , and birds 🐥. Currently, my family has five cats 🐈⬛ (four of which are mine), two dogs 🐶 (a Rottweiler and a Lab Mix), two birds 🦜(a Conyard and an Amazon parrot), and a large Sulcata tortoise 🐢 . I also have a jumping spider 🕷️ . I’m well-versed in all aspects of animal care ❤️🩹and have a lot of patience 🤗. I’ll give your pets all the love and attention they need. 💕 I’m currently between jobs because I recently moved here. So, my typical morning routine involves opening the blinds, feeding my cats, and checking on my spider. I would treat my clients’ animals as if they were my own and would adapt to the specific needs of each pet as per the client’s instructions.
“They're the best! I know I can rest assured my babies and my home are all in good hands. Book them but please check with me first lol in case I need them. What would I do without them? 😱”
“When a last minute work trip came up, Tony helped out significantly with my two furballs. They seemed to have been happy to have him stay with them and overall, the experience was really good!”
“Denver was great, and we will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. He took pictures, gave updates, and made sure the dogs weren’t chewing up anything they weren’t supposed to. When we got home, the dogs were all relaxed and happy. Thank you, Denver!”
“Rhonda is truly the best. Most importantly, shes amazing with animals. I have two dogs and two cats and they arent the easiest to win over. And they all liked her immediately! She was so sweet and worked with us timing wise, sent plenty of pictures and made us feel so much better about going away for the weekend. I'm so happy I found her!”
About: I worked at two different holistic pet stores for two years combined, so I have extensive knowledge on pets, pet products and know several emergency vets and pet services in the Chattanooga and Nashville area. I have pet sat since I was 10 years old and done overnight house sitting stays since I was 17. I have had three dogs in my lifetime, and each one lived a long and happy life, including my 6 year old lab who stays with my parents in the Nashville area. I trained all my dogs, and my 6 year old lab has seperation anxiety, so I am aware of the quirks that dogs can have! I also had a cat when I was younger who was diagnosed with diabetes toward the end of her life, so I learned how to administer insulin shots on cats, which I'm sure transfers pretty well to dogs. I have cared for my own senior dogs, sold products to benefit senior dogs, and am fit enough to lift any dog that needs assistance getting into the house or car! I am very knowledgeable, responsible and very easy to get along with! I’m currently unemployed and trying to fill the gap while I look for something full-time. I have a husband that can take care of my animals so I can fully invest in pet-sitting right now! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m the type of person who will cross a street just to pet a cute dog or a stray cat. I’ve never met a pet I didn’t like, or that didn’t like me (which to me is the best testament to my character!)
“Since the last time using rover, my gf and I were unsure about giving it another try. Ayla was so good to keep us updated on our kids. And if that wasn’t enough to urge you to book her; she even brought in our pkgs from outside so they wouldn’t sit on the porch and refrigerated the ones that needed to be kept cool. On top of that she washed the bedding which she slept on and left us next to nothing to do when we got home except unpack. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Hailey was amazing! I’ve never left my dog with a sitter before. He is old, blind, and has kidney disease so it can be a lot to care for him. She did a wonderful job. He was very comfortable with her and she handled his accidents with professionalism and care. That was my main concern and she put my mind at ease with updates while I was away which I appreciated so much. I came home to a house the way I left it and a content dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Stayed the weekend with our husky we’d struggled boarding last minute. Was amazing with our doggo & left our home & dog in better shape than we’re left. Would recommend & will be booking again”
“Laurel watched our cat and dog while we were out of town for a week and had watched them prior to this trip as well. She took great care of them both, always made sure she had their schedule, and checked in with us often! She sent us plenty of pictures and updates while we were gone, which we greatly appreciated! Laurel made sure both our animals were well taken care of and attended to while we were away. We would love to utilize Laurel again!!!”
“My dogs (one of whom is usually very anxious) seemed to instantly like Danielle, which is always such a relief when I leave them with a sitter. My house was clean and tidy when I returned, and my pooches were securely locked up in their crates and calm. Thankyou!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young. An they had my own when I was grown. I love an treat them like family I work a 40 hour week but I come home for lunch so there never alone long... An after work an before work I give em walks an play time baths whatever they need I do better w pets primarily indoor .I have a semi fenced yard an when I go out I put them on a run an watch them or take them for walks on a leash
“She did great! Very communicative, sent updates and pictures throughout the night which I really appreciated. She also took the time to meet Delta before our booking, so that she would be more comfortable the night of.”
About: With over two years of experience house sitting for friends and family—often for extended periods—I’ve earned a strong reputation for being dependable, respectful, and truly dedicated to the pets I care for. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from energetic puppies to gentle senior pets, and I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, routines, and personalities. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to provide both companionship and specialized care, especially for older pets who need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply offering comfort and snuggles, I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is always to keep pets happy, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I am currently working part-time! But my schedule is completely up to me and flexible. The good thing about the job I work at is I get to create my own schedule! As long as I am kept in the loop with the people I provide services for dog sitting, walking, and care will always be my top priority! I treat every home and pet I care for with the same respect I’d want for my own. I always follow routines closely—whether it’s feeding, walking, or giving medication—and make sure pets stay safe by double-checking doors, gates, and anything they might get into. I’m clean, organized, and careful to leave the home just as I found it. Most importantly, I take time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so they feel comfortable, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. Trust and safety are always my top priorities!

FAQs for House Sitting - Allensville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 316 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Allensville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Allensville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Allensville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Allensville 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
