Pet care experience

My husband and I live in a neighborhood with ample walking trails and a large fenced in backyard. We have our own dog, Poppy, who is friendly and loves to spend time with other dogs! We will love your dog like they are our own while you are away and be sure to send lots of photo updates. I grew up having dogs, and I have been pet sitting for almost 15 years. I have watched cats, dogs, and chickens. I have watched up to three dogs at once. My husband and I foster dogs and puppies through a local rescue and I also volunteered as a dog walker at a local shelter for a year walking dogs. Thank you for considering me to spend time with your loves while you are away!! I look forward to hearing from you!

The absolute best Rover experience! This was my dog Daisy’s first time staying with a Rover, and she had the best time. Allison and her husband are the sweetest people! They were so thoughtful of Daisy’s typical routine and treated her just like their own dog, Poppy, who is also just the best. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Allie and Vinny did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 pups while we were away for a weekend. They had clear communication and provided plenty of photo/video updates. Their sweet pup, Poppy, is playful and so well behaved. Both of our dogs came home happy and exhausted. Would highly recommend Allie and Vinny for your dog sitting needs!

Allison+Vinny were great! They were communicative and worked with me to ensure the doggos and humans had a comfortable meet and greet and first practice day. Tui takes a while to trust new people and dogs and isn't the friendliest, they understood this and worked with him while giving me frequent updates about how he was doing. (While also managing a litter of foster puppies in very hot weather!) Not only are they fantastic dog parents to their own puppy, Poppy, who is sweet with other dogs, and SO well trained, but they all treated my grumpy boy with respect and worked with him to ensure he was comfortable. They're all truly gems!

Allison and her husband were wonderful! They are both very sweet and we're attentive to my dogs neeeds. They also have a wonderful young pup who played great with mine. They made sure to keep me up to date on how Maggie was doing and sent lots of pictures. I really appreciate their flexibility to watch her.

Information Allison R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any behaviors we need to be aware of. Dogs must be good with younger dogs as Poppy is friendly but young! Dogs must be up to date on all shots/vaccines.

A typical day

I love to go on walks around neighborhood and play fetch in our backyard. Time spent relaxing, cuddling and decompressing are also a must! We love for dogs to get to play and run out back together, and use our dog water toys!
