“Erin took excellent care of our dog Arthur for a long weekend. She was communicative before the stay and arrived on time. She sent texts and picture updates throughout the stay, and she left our home so neat and clean it was like no one had even stayed there. We would highly recommend Erin for her dog sitting services.”
About: Hi there! I have 2 dogs of my own - a 2 year old Shih Tzu/Cockapoo mix and a 4 month old Havapoo. I’ve also helped take care of our family dog for the past 14 years, as well as my siblings’ pets. Experience taking care of multiple breeds and multiple pets at once. I am currently between jobs in the tech space so available any day at the moment! My schedule is flexible. Just reach out with questions. Happy to walk, feed, snuggle, and otherwise love your pets when needed! I am very active and love to get outdoors, but also happy to watch them in your home if easier for you.
“Nathalia was fantastic! On time, communicative, and thorough. She made sure our very anxious dog was at ease and happy the entire time which isn’t always an easy task! She is everything you would hope for in a sitter!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 6+ years. I have walked, fed, and bathed dogs before. I am an animal lover and my hope is that the care I provide puts a smile on the pet and owners faces Work from home and available to house sit/walk/take care of animals. I am also available on the weekends. Can be flexible depending on your needs. I base pet care on the owners preferences, needs, and wants. Please let me know anything your pet needs, schedule, routine, enjoyed activities of your pet etc
“Allegra was absolutely fantastic! She definitely loves dogs and both our Great Danes were very well cared for while we were gone. In addition, Allegra was not only very easy to communicate with but she also left the house cleaner than when she got there which was a great way to come home from a weekend away. We highly recommend Allegra!!”
“Pamela was amazing! She accepted a last-minute booking to watch Willie Nelson, and we are so grateful. She arrived right on time, kept us updated throughout, and was so communicative and thoughtful. Willie was happy and relaxed when we got home, and we could tell he was well cared for. We’d book Pamela again in a heartbeat!”
“Andrew was so great! Very kind and calm, he totally understood the needs of our rambunctious 7-month old Aussie and made me feel confident our pup was left in good hands while we left for half a day.”
“Cynthia is open and friendly in person, and was wonderful with our pooches. She sent us regular photos and it was clear that the dogs were relaxed and comfortable with her.”
“Isabella was absolutely wonderful! She sent us plenty of updates and the pictures she shared were amazing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we came home, the house was clean and, most importantly, our animals were happy and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking Isabella again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Volkan was very positive and friendly. Effective and prompt communication. Got acclimated to my expectations quickly. He kept me updated throughout his time with my puppy on when he ate and pooped, which I really appreciated.”
About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have so much puppy love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).
“Amanda was great with my dog, she was able to give her meds, stick to her usual schedule and make us feel totally comfortable leaving her especially when we had a last minute change of plans!”
“I'm so glad that Majdoline was able to watch my dog and house-sit over the weekend. She was very quick to respond to any messages and gave several updates throughout the day with a ton of pictures, I never had to worry about a thing. She spent lots of time both giving my dog attention and letting her run around and play in the yard. She left everything in the house very neat and clean as well. I would absolutely ask her to pet-sit for me again!”
“Natalie was amazing. She took great care of my older cat, anticipating what he needed to be more comfortable. She sent updates and photos regularly and left the house clean and neat. Highly recommend!”
“Sydney was a great overnight sitter. Very flexible in terms of doing a meet and great, and very communicative about letting me know how things were going. She also treated the space very well, and cleaned/organized prior to her departure/my return. Would definitely work with Sydney again for future needs!”
About: I've had pets my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I treat every pet like they're my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel at ease while they're away. I've helped friends and family with their pets over the years, and I know every animal has their own personality and comfort level. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Whether your pet is working on potty training, crate training, or following a specific routine, I’m happy to help keep things consistent while they’re in my care. I provide a safe, clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive regular walks, potty breaks, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy levels. For privacy and safety reasons, I don’t offer home tours.
“D’Mitri was one of the best sitters I’ve ever had! He watched my dogs for a week while I was on vacation and took terrific care of them! He treated our house with respect, sent constant updates on the dogs, and took care of a couple emergencies while we were gone. I would highly recommend D’Mitri if you need a polite, respectful, and reliable sitter!”
“Laura stayed with our dog for 2 days and was fantastic. She sent lots of pictures, followed our directions to a T, gave him lots of attention and walks. She was very caring, and responsive and we felt extremely comfortable with her there because of it! Highly recommend and will definitely be scheduling with her again.”

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 Allerton 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 Allerton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Allerton 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 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.
