Pet care experience
I’ve had animals basically all of my life. Growing up in Michigan I helped care for 10+ dogs, cats, and puppies. This includes my own cat, who is a spry 14 years old. I’ve cared for him all his life and the majority of my own, while also helping to care for my parent’s and sibling’s dogs. I’ve been on Rover for over a year now, and loving every second! Throughout this amazing experience, I’ve gained knowledge on how to care for dogs and cats of all maintenance levels. I’m comfortable with dogs of most sizes and all energy levels, and I have experience walking dogs both trained and untrained. I’m active and caring, your animals will be safe with me!
Reviews
Allison was wonderful!! She watched my 2 kitties for 5 days while I was on a work trip. She kept me informed and sent lots of photos of her playing with my boys. I will definitely be using her again.
Allison was great! Very communicative, always letting me know how the cats were doing and even sending photos! She even went above and beyond cleaned the cat's litter boxes and their food bowls when I said she didn't have to! Highly recommend her as a cat sitter!!!!!
Allison was fantastic. Easy to schedule the meet n greet/keys beforehand, Wanda really liked her (she frequently hides from new people), and did a great job. Would 100% recommend. I'm trying to book her again for a few weeks from now.
Allison was a fantastic sitter and took care of our cat Jasper while we were gone for Christmas! She was extremely responsive, provided quality updates, and sent photos everyday. She even did an extra day of sitting when we had to extend our trip. Would highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
To ensure that everyone is safe, I never let any dog that I’m walking or caring for off leash when outside the home. Because of this I’m not comfortable going to dog parks unfortunately.
Information Allison S. would like to know about your pet
I’m comfortable with nearly any dog, including most sizes and all energy levels. However, I need to know any behavioral issues your dog has, with the most important one being any kind of territorial behavior. ***I do not feel comfortable caring for territorial or potentially human aggressive dogs.*** Besides this, please let me know if your animal has any dietary restrictions or medications :) For the most part, I try to keep the dogs I’m walking away from other dogs just as a precaution. However, please let me know if you’d like me to allow them to say hello!
A typical day
I love getting a basic outline of your dog’s favorite routes, and then go explore from there! I also love playing fetch with both dogs and cats if you’d believe it. Also rest assured that your pet is receiving all of the lovin’ that they want, even if that’s none for the more shy kitties!
