“Savannah was great with our three dogs! She was quick to communicate and took great care of our house and our girls. During her sit, we had a health scare and she kept us well informed and made good decisions to make sure the girls were okay. We are so grateful for her care!!”

About: Hello! My name is Becca and the handsome fella in the picture with me is Baloo. I have had animals my entire life and have house sat for people since I was 16. I babysit all critters, not just dogs and cats. I have babysat dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, plants, rats, & even a jumping spider! I firmly believe I was put on this earth to show love and kindness to the ones that can't speak for themselves. I look forward to meeting you and your critters. I work a normal 9-5 job Monday through Friday with an hour lunch break. If you home is close enough, I go visit them during my lunch break as well. On the weekends I enjoy hiking and hanging out with my friends. I have been known to take whoever I am babysitting on adventures with me, with permission before hand of course. :-) I love animals more than people... my goal is to keep your babies safe, happy, and comfy while Mom and or Dad are away. I can keep in touch with daily pictures texted to you.
About: Growing up I lived on a livestock farm so my life for animals came natural and at a very early age. I previously worked as a Vet Tech and still currently volunteer for a local rescue, which is how I got 2 of my babies! I would love to keep your loved companions safe and comfortable while you relax on vacation or take care of business for work. I have a completely open schedule at the moment. I can do potty breaks /walks or over night stays for as long as is needed. I have a fenced in yard in a quite neighborhood. Plenty of toys and blankets for everyone and only the best quality dog food and treats. I also have two very friendly dogs of my own but could keep separate if you prefered. I have no limits for space in my house so furniture and such is fair game. I just want them to be comfortable and feel safe.
“Great experience with Megan. She wanted to meet us and pets before to learn expectations. She was prompt and dogs loved her, ate well etc. Will definitely use her again if available.”

About: I have had experience caring for all sorts of animals since I was 11 years old. Including cats and exotics. I am also a professional dog and cat groomer with 4 years of experience as well as a grooming certification. I am currently a full time pet groomer with a flexible schedule. I work in the afternoon so I will always be available mornings and nights. I will always treat your pets as if they are mine own and I will be sure to follow any rule or specification that you leave for their care.
“Awesome woman! She goes above and beyond! She's reliable and will work with you and your animals. She's always looking one how to better your relationship with your pet! Can not say enough wonderful things about her!”

I’m a huge huge animal lover with over five years of experience caring and connecting with animals of all types. I prioritize just that- connecting with your fur babies!

I am comfortable administering oral medication. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry loved with someone you hardly know- I try my best to make this experience as easy and smooth as possible for everyone! We’ll schedule a meeting (unless it’s a last minute booking!) and discuss routines, medication, diet specifications, and anything else we may need to go over! I will keep your pet’s everyday routines in place to the best of my ability. I take lots of pictures and give frequent, detailed updates throughout the day. Your fur babies are in very good hands!!

About: Hi, all! Years of living with and caring for pets and working as a veterinary assistant has led me to be attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, so loving to any and all animals. I currently care for a pup, cat and ducks in my life. I intend to care for your pet as if it were my own! I am easy-going, flexible and willing to abide by any reasonable requests in care-taking. This won’t be considered “work” for me. It’s a bonus for the joy of spending time with and caring for animals and helping out pet parents as well :) I hope to meet you and your pet soon! Krista E. As far as my schedule, I am completely open during the daytime. I work evening shifts five days a week, but my schedule changes weekly. For walking: 1-2 walks a day from the hours of 8-3. I can also do night walks on days that I work, outside of the hours of 3-10ish, depending on the day. If I am off, I can walk at any time in the day or evening. I am willing to make multiple visits in a day. For House Drop-Ins: Similar to above, the evening times may vary. For House Sitting: I receive my schedule weekly, so I am available for overnight at least twice a week. However, if consecutive days are needed, I will be available for morning and afternoon care, but will have to leave for work and return afterward at night. Again, this time varies, so it will be either 3-8:30/9ish that I am gone, or 4-10/11ish. I can understand if this is an issue, but am willing to walk during the day, feed, and let out for a potty break as soon as I am able. I do not accept pets in my home because of the other animals already here, but as far as in yours, I am clean, courteous, quiet, respectful, and most importantly, there to keep your pet well-cared for, entertained, and at ease.

“Kaitlyn was awesome caring for our two dogs while we were away on our first week long vacation! She kindly accepted our request on short notice when we were in a pinch. I am glad we found her and will definitely book with her again!”

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST! That is where I start. We had to book him in a pinch and we were able to get a meet and greet in with Khalil and our 3(65# plus) dogs. The meet and greet went great and he showed up on time 3 days later. We received photos every single day. He stayed in our home and was able to keep them entertained while there. The photos we received they were always looking happy. We were gone for 10 days and when we came back it was like we had just left with the house being clean. Khalil stayed in our guest room. We didn't ask him to but he took the sheets off of the bed and put them in the laundry room. The dishes he had used were put in the dishwasher. Main thing was to take care of our dogs and he went above and beyond on that! We will absolutely recommend Khalil to anyone and everyone looking for short and long term stays. Khalil was very responsive. We will be going back to him when we have to be out of town again. Khalil made it so easy to trust that they would be in good hands and taken care of the entire time. I could go on and on. An overall phenomenal experience.”

“Elizabeth has been amazing house sitting for us! She takes care of our dogs, chickens, quail, and everything at our house. She is always very flexible with changes and has amazing communication. Each day she sends pictures or updates. Highly recommend Elizabeth if you are looking for a house sitter or pet sitter!”
About: I am a young adult with lots of experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I have grown up around them and I love to take care of them. My daily routine includes emptying litter boxes and sweeping litter off floors. I often accompany my dogs outside to make sure they did their business. I also feed each of my pets daily. While I do not have much experience outside my own home taking care of my pets, I know how to do so while making sure my clients and their pets are happy.
About: Hi! We have over 9 years of pet sitting and taking care of pet experience! I used to work in a dog shelter where there was a quick need for dogs in quick care and for fun playtimes! My husband and I take care of dogs together it helps me especially if the dog is very big and tuff! We are very organized and we are quick to get tasks done. Rey is also bilingual in Spanish and English just in case so there’s no language barrier We also have 2 sweet dogs of our own. We genuinely love dogs and we just love to see them happy it doesn’t take them much to please them and to make their day which we truly have the experience and capability to be able to do that for your dog :) Rey works a part time as a paralegal. She spaces out hours for pet care so she can be able to give any potential furry friend the care that is needed! :) We live in a home with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs have plenty of safe space to play, explore, and get exercise. We are in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood and make sure every dog in our care receives lots of love, attention, and supervision. We understand life can get busy or unexpected plans can come up, so we are happy to accommodate same-day bookings when available to help provide reliable care when you need it most. Whether your pet enjoys relaxing, playing outside, or staying active, we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. We treat every pet like family and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine.
About: Since childhood I've had animals. I profoundly love dogs and cats. I have volunteered at rescues and shelters in the past. I currently work for a local veterinary clinic. I'm committed to providing safe, excellent care for your furbabies! I currently have a full time job at a local veterinary clinic, however, I have flexibility in my schedule and don't work weekends. I'm available typically on same day basis. I have a modest home with a outdoor kennel, and indoor crates for safe, clean boarding for animals large or small! Plenty of love and attention given so they will not feel alone.
About: I absolutely LOVE cats, but I love dogs as well! I grew up with a cat that I was extremely close to, and now and I have a little one of my own. Though I have never owned a dog myself, I am comfortable around them, have petsit dogs and am more than happy to take care of one! My family used to travel for extended periods of time growing up and I would be so anxious about our pets being at home alone, even though they were being taken care of. I understand that anxious feeling and can definitely offer you peace of mind when you're away. I will be super interactive with your pet and play with them as much as they'd like! It's important to give them lots of attention and love when you are away. Though I am busy with school, I can do many things on my own time, making my schedule very flexible. This is how I am able to fit pet care into my daily routine! I will always keep my home and your home safe for pets! I am careful about what I leave in the open that pets have access to and I always refresh food and water, making sure to keep them in an appropriate location. I will always double-check fencing in the yard to make sure all pets are secure with no possibility of escaping.

FAQs for House Sitting - Allenton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 279 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Allenton. 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 Allenton 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 Allenton 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 Allenton 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allenton. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
