“Chance did a wonderful job watching our dog! He helped us out in a pinch with a canceled flight and extended his stay without question. He kept us well-informed and sent lots of videos and pictures. I would highly recommend Chance!”
“Sara was great with Max. And Max loved Sara. She was great with updates and took very good care of Max while we were away! Loved his walk and play time that he got outside!”
“I cannot recommend Blythe enough! She stayed at my home to watch my high-energy dog, and she handled him like an absolute pro. He can be a handful, but Blythe kept him exercised, entertained, and totally comfortable the entire time. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy and tired pup! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring—book Blythe. She went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful to have found her!”
About: Experience volunteering at local cat cafe and caring for friends/family’s pets. Just like dogs, I also look forward to taking my own daily walks! :) I’m the proud mom of 2 cats and I specialize in caring for pets with anxiety. My main job is as a dance teacher, so I only work after school/work ends for our students. This leaves my mornings and mid-days free for walks and furry friends! I am always respectful of clients’ property (and pets of course)! My house currently does not accept pets but I love spending time outside and stopping by to provide needed care.
About: I cat sit for my neighbor for long periods of time when she goes away. I’ve been an animal owner since the age of 3. Currently I’m in school for nursing but don’t have classes Monday and Wednesday as well as the weekend. Those days I’m hoping to spend time with pets. Caring for pets in my home I will have them on a leash if outside just in case they like to run away. At a clients home I’ll follow the directions to ensure perfect pet care.
“We had complete peace of mind while we were on vacation knowing Ludi was caring for our dogs and our home. She is authentically genuine, incredibly kind, an excellent listener, and a wonderful communicator. She kept us updated, was attentive to every detail, and cared for our home and pets as if they were her own. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Ludi again, and we’ve already recommended her to our family. She is truly someone you can trust, and we are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided. Highly recommend!”
“Sierra was great! I got lots of pictures and my pets were very well cared for! She went the extra mile to give me peace of mind during my trip. I came home to a clean house and my fur babies in great shape! I will definitely ask for her for future trips and highly recommend her to care for your babies!”
“Madison did excellent watching our house and pets. She ensured that all their needs were met and the house was very well cared for. The dogs were very happy and tired when we got home. Would recommend Madison to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I can remember! I have a bunny and 2 cats and I give them a lot of attention and love which would make me a good sitter for your fur baby! I have also taken care of many different breeds of dogs and love them all! I’m currently working full time Monday through Friday 8am-5pm. I am able to stop by on my lunch or after work. My lunch break is usually about 30 minutes and I am currently living in Milton so to stop by on lunch break can be Milton area only. At home, I have a bunny and she roams around during the day. I will usually pen her if I am not home so she doesn’t get hurt. I also play with her as much as I can! I have 4 indoor cats and never leave the door open. When I dog sit for clients, I keep them on a leash on walks no matter what, unless they are comfortable with me
About: I’ve handled many dog breeds of family and friends as well as small animal pet care classes. My personal dogs include a total of 9 German shepherds in my lifetime with a current pack of 4. These pups require special attention and experienced training to make sure they have good behaviors. I have bathed, walked, and groomed pets of small and large breeds! *EXPERIENCE WITH REACTIVE DOGS* My current work schedule is very flexible! I love teaching your pups new skills, manners, and enriching them on their daily walks! Message me any questions you have regarding drop ins, pet sitting, and long term sitting. My person pets are treated like kings and the most precious queen! We carefully manage my aggressive dog with muzzle training, medications, and individual time and I am able to do the same for your fur babies! Payment issues? I’m flexible. We can work it out during our first meetup to discuss pricing, multi-day discounts, and payment expectations.
About: I've had a plethora of animals over my 35 years of existence. Dog breeds include a Labrador, Border Collie, Beagle, German Shepard, and Chihuahua. Other species include six rats, one guinea pig, three rabbits, two corn snakes, and a bearded dragon. I do not have any children, and I'm living with my father. Together, we have two dogs, (one his, and the other mine), a garage cat (his), and a bearded dragon (mine). His dog is a German Shepard named Wren, and mine is a Chihuahua named Milo. Additionally, I quit the job I've had for years, so I have a fairly flexible schedule. All of our animals have schedules for everything. Potty breaks, food times, etc. We keep it fairly strict, but also know how to read our animals, and so the schedule is subject to slight changes. I can adapt, and learn new schedules for clients.
About: I have volunteered with dogs at my local spca for years. I have also watched friends dogs frequently! I love all dogs of all shapes and sizes! I am an 8th grade english teacher. Any weekdays before 7 or after 5, and weekends anytime! I am very flexible, and willing to work with you! I have one dog, she is a gently greyhound and very sweet! I take her on walks daily and fetch at the local dog park if it’s nice outside! She does well with other dogs, she can get defensive over food so I will muzzle her or kennel her when food is present!
About: As the keeper of a small zoo from scaly snakes to big furry puppers, I have a love for all types of animals and caring for them. Your fur baby would be in good hands with an experienced pro like me. Lots of pats, attention, love will be given. I’m a full-time college student, so each week is different. However, I will always ensure I have plenty of free time to devote to your lovable good boy/girl. Your home and pet will be respected and cared for in a fashionable manner. Rules and tips will be followed, and all needs will be accommodated for the best care. I offer all services except those involving bringing an animal into my home.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. It's always been my opinion that a home is not comete until you have an adorable floof to greet you at the door with unconditional love. I will be a stay at home mom in a couple of months here and hoping to get a little extra cash while also getting out of the house and catching some sunshine every day. Hoping to find a few regulars to take up time and get a few walks in throughout the week! Whatever is needed in the hime I will be able to do. I've worked with dogs as small as chihuahuas, to the big and beautiful Alaskan malamute. I'm good with brushing washing, walking and feeding. Every dog is different, and I hope to meet and love as many as I can!
“We’re so grateful we found Kalea. She stayed in our home and took amazing care of our two Labs while we were away over the 4th of July. She stuck to their routine, which really helped keep them calm and happy, especially during a stressful time. It was obvious they got tons of love and attention while we were gone. We came home to two very content pups! We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”
About: I volunteer at the SPCA walking dogs and caring for the cats. I'm a lover of all animals. I'm very clean and responsible and care for all animals as I would a family member. I'm currently working full-time, but I'm available after 4 and all weekends and holidays. I have a dog and fours cats of my own and this seems to work for them. They are very happy. I take my dog on long walks and provide him enrichment treats and toys. I always check when leaving to make sure that nothing is out he can hurt himself with. I'm also very strict on cleaning the cat boxes as I don't want them to get sick or smell up the house. I will clean up after your pets and I will make sure they are safe and happy.

FAQs for House Sitting - Allenwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 122 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Allenwood. 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 Allenwood 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 Allenwood 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 Allenwood 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
