“Jessica was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us while we were away! It was our first time using Rover and we were incredibly pleased with our experience. Jessica was very friendly and sweet with our very nervous dog when we did our meet and greet prior to our trip. Throughout our time away she updated us with pictures and progress on how Nala was doing. Clearly she is wonderful with animals because our nervous pup seemed to be comfortable with her in no time at all. We would definitely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter/house sitter while they are away, and will definitely book her again in the future!”
“I went out of town labor day weekend leaving my two dog s at home instead of putting them in lodging. This is the first time I had Stephanie stay at my house with my dogs. Everything went very well. They were treated well and had multiple outings to the dog park without incident and the house was clean when I returned. I will definitely hire Stephanie again to care for my dogs.”
“My dogs loved Mackenzie from the first moment they met her. She emanates kindness and a love for living things. She was available on very short notice, prompt, communicative and thorough. She even helped me with a difficult neighborhood kitty and made sure my beloved feral kitty was fed and safe. My dogs have separation anxiety therefore I often dont leave them. I feel so relieved that now that I have someone I can trust and they feel comfortable with to care for them and for our home.”
“Lisa watched our two dogs while we were overseas for two weeks on vacation and we highly recommend her! She sent plenty of pictures, kept us updated throughout the stay, left the house clean and most importantly took good care of our dogs! We will definitely be booking Lisa for stays in the future.”
“Simon was awesome with my dog Rocky! I received a bunch of photos of them having fun & on lil adventures, while I was away on a backpacking trip. Would 10/10 recommend.”

“Katherine did a great job taking care of our dog and the house. We really appreciated her updates, communication, and cleanliness. We would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future!”
“We came home to happy animals and a very tidy house. Megan was very communicative during the entire stay. Definitely had a peace of mind knowing she was taking care of the fuzzy ones.”

“Mallory took great care of our dogs for a weekend while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures of them & responded quickly & took action when one of our dogs broke through the neighbors fence she was able to get them back quickly & even fixed our fence for us. We would recommend Mallory to anyone!”
“Alicia was wonderful with my two corgis. She took such great care of them, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands while I was away. She also took excellent care of my home, watered the garden, and left everything incredibly tidy. It was such a pleasure to come home to happy dogs and a well cared for house. I would absolutely trust Alicia with my pets and home again and highly recommend her!”
“Nayeli did a great job watching my dog! She followed all my instructions and gave me lots of updates throughout the weekend. I returned to a happy dog and a well taken care of home. I would recommend Nayeli and book her again!”
“Lillian was absolutely great with my dogs! She was extremely reliable and gave lots of updates with pictures included. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their animals!”
“Jessica has been a wonderful in-home sitter for my boxer puppy. She is extremely good with communication and always on time. Most importantly, my pup has a great time with her so I can feel better about being away!”
About: I’m a professional dog walker since 2021. I’m working on extending my weekday services permanently to Tacoma (Spring 2027), but I currently offer weekend or off-hours visits. I specialize in small group dog walks or drop-ins. Now offering short or extended cat care. I also offer my experience with reptiles and other small critters or creepy crawlers. I work full time as a dog walker during the week through a small company in Seattle. I’m now accepting new weekend and off-hours clients in Tacoma until I can commit full time I have two reactive rescue dogs so am experienced with pets with behavioral needs and understand the worry and concern of trusting someone to make sure your pet stays safe during a walk or visit. Can care for professional escape artists, behavioral issues, or pets with special needs/medical care.
“Phenomenal communication! We felt at ease knowing our two dogs were being cared for by Kelsey. She kept us updated and stayed at the home with our dogs. She also brought our trash bin in (totally not expected, but such a kind thing to do). Top notch care!”
“Hannah is great! We love her! She stayed with my pup during the snow storm with NO power in the house. She cuddled with my girl and kept them both warm through the night with no complaints! She is a real trooper🩵”
“Short version: Ruby speaks pet! Long version: Ruby was a pet whisperer the moment she met my dog; he totally loved on her (he's not picky but he definitely has his favorites). During the meet & greet I could tell she understood how important sticking to a schedule was, which meant a lot. But going back really quick, what meant the most to me was her empathy (we both want the best for our pets), and this is what made Ruby a trusted sitter. Thank you Ruby, so very much!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Allison
Brandie was amazing for us and our pup! We were gone for 8 days, our longest trip without our dog and Brandie did such a good job with sending us pictures and updates. She also took care of my large amount of house plants, which was a huge bonus. Highly recommend booking with Brandie!
Bre was amazing! She was able to accommodate a last minute request and was reliable and a quick communicator. She stayed at our house and was respectful of the home as well. I highly recommend using her and will definitely use her for future trips! Thank you for taking great care of Booger, Maya, and Mariner.
Fawn was super kind and communicative. This was the first time in 10+ years that we have left our animals and the pictures and updates put us at ease. When we got home you could tell the animals were well taken care of. We will for sure be reaching back out if we need help with our animals again.
We had not booked Haley for a couple of years due to not traveling as much. Mango never forgot her and was so excited to see her. Mango also needed some extra care this time and Haley provided it. She did great with the kittens too. We are so lucky we found her and it we can leave our pets and home in her care without a worry. Thank you Haley!
We had a great experience with Jeri over the 5 days she cared for our dogs. She was friendly and reliable, and communicated well throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Overall, we felt our dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend her to others.
Kaitlin is everything you would want in a pet sitter! Efficient communication, punctual and so very sweet to our animal crew! She sent pictures daily and was very detailed to ensure our large (and very medicated crew) was taken care of properly. We can't wait to have her back.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,381 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Allison. 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 Allison 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 Allison 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 Allison 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
