I am a business owner as well as a REALTOR®️, which means- that if I need to stay home and love on a pet all day on a Tuesday, by golly, I sure can do exactly that. I am blessed with a flexible schedule! I don't mind taking pets to walk at safe parks, if you request. I am flexible, and want to do whatever makes you and your pet feel most at ease during their visit with me.

Safety, trust & environment

At the moment, I have an unfenced yard, which hopefully is fenced in very soon (May 2025). Therefore, I do not plan on allowing your pet to free roam, during walks or potty times. We will practice loose and long leashing, which does not make them feel like they are on a leash at all. I do not want them to feel constantly tied up while we are out enjoying fresh air. If your pet enjoys being outside, but is used to also being in a chain link pen at times, then yes I have an optional 20ft x 10ft x 6ft tall pen for day time / alone time if you would prefer some intentionally planned time outside. I 100% am a fan of allowing pets to stay in the house with me. I just ask for openness when asked if your pet is house trained. I have an XL Crate if your furry friend is crate trained for bedtime, and I have a guest bedroom if they just would rather lay on their bed from home and have a safe space to call their own. I am flexible. This is about making your pet feel comfortable. NOTE TO MY CAT OWNER FRIENDS: I will never host a cat and dog in the same house unless they are from the same household. I am also a cat person. I would be tickled to host a cat. They have such "special" personalities. I just normally target the above information to our dog friends, because that is a more common guest. I have basic clay litter, and extra litter boxes, so that you don't have to worry about toting all of that around when we exchange.

Information Allison R. would like to know about your pet

I am familiar with all types of personalities and physical needs, please do not hesitate to inform me of even the smallest of quirks, traits, or needs that your pet has.

A typical day

Does your dog (or cat) like to adventure, or are they a couch pup? Do they like to nap and be left alone? I will adjust my patterns to meet their needs. They are a guest in my home, i.e. I will be pleasant and accommodating to what you feel is best for your pet. I want them to feel cared for, not rushed or over-stimulated.

Pet care experience

After 5 years of providing care thru Rover, it is time for a little Update: I grew up on a small farm, i.e. horses, dogs, cats, goats, a few cows for the fair. Now that I am all grown up and I don't have my family's farm to play around on... I love spending my spare time with animals. I think being a Rover Friend / Sitter is a great way for me to devote time and attention to a pet who otherwise might feel afraid or not do well with a cold boarding situation. I enjoy making your pet feel loved, and welcome. It is important to me that they do not stress or worry in your absence. Plus- it gives me great practice for being a Momma some day. Just like babies, dogs and cats cannot always tell us how they are feeling or what is wrong, lol. [A lot of my "clients" ask, "what do you do for a living that allows you the freedom to still be so involved with Rover?" I am blessed to be a Real Estate Agent, my main office is in Branson, MO (*about 35 min from my home).

Allison is a sweetheart, she took excellent care of my cats. She made sure to come meet the entire family before we left out of town, which was really great. They seemed happy upon my return, that is all I can ask for :) Thank you so much Allison!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
