Hello all 👋 **Promo Code:ALLANM31274 for first time Rover clients Stella and I welcome longer stays as well as short. We like to meet and greet, and a one night test stay is also great. Unfortunately I have recently said goodbye to Ambrose who was a big part of our dog care. Stella is my new companion and she still has a lot to learn. I've had pets all my life; few dogs, many cats, birds, fish, reptiles. I operate with only one or two guests at a time. My pup is Stella, a six month old Heeler/collie cross. She has lots of energy and a lot to learn. She is reactive to other dogs and we are working hard on her comfort levels.

Leroy had an excellent stay with Allan and his family. I received beautiful photos of their outdoor adventures, and regular updates. My pup came home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Allan's pet sitting services.

Not only was Allan GREAT with my dogs, he was flexible on Christmas Day! Today was our second walk and I loved seeing the dogs get excited to see him. I came back to find them loving all over him. Highly recommend. Would certainly go to Allan first if I was back here and needing a walker again!

Allan was fantastic!! His house and yard are a great place for Maggie to relax. It's very spacious, and Allan was great with the communication and sending photos. Thank you for looking after my little girl, Allan!

Schedule

I'm a very active person and happy to get out for a walk or hike and fetch at a park is a treat. My day job is with the federal government has me away from home Monday to Friday for 6 - 8 hours. A pup who is comfortable at home while I'm at work, would be a best fit.

Stella is a young pup who is still learning her social skills and visiting dogs should have some tolerance for young pups. Is your pup alright home alone for how many hours?
