I can work with you on your pets tools and am not judgemental of prong collars, ecollars, muzzles. Just let me know. I have used a muzzle for my dog at the vet and groomer. Also I have used a prong collar on my high energy Rhodesian Ridgeback x Staffy.

Information Ally R. would like to know about your pet

Any special diet restrictions, if I'll be feeding? Any physical restrictions I should know of? Any aggression with other animals/ people? Anything special they prefer in the home visit?

A typical day

Treats and play time. Lots of walks around the neighborhoods. I love to play with cats/ dogs/ gerbils. I love having a good time with toys and tug a war.

Weekend pet visit

Pet care experience

I love being around dogs! We will play and run in the back yard and tons of playing! I have an 10 yr old husky and a a 7 yr old Rhodesian mix. I would love to make evening or weekend stops as needed at your home! For house sitting I would be happy to stay the night but need to be able to leave up to 2 hrs so I can walk my dogs too. I am a people food sharer, if you prefer not I can do that too. I am very laid back and relaxed around animals. I also have a turtle that is dog friendly that I have had for fifteen years! I was the woman who would not allow dogs to kiss me on the mouth until I adopted Zeus! He is my spoiled baby! No one makes me happier than my other two doggos, Durango and Zeus. Adopted Durango a Rhodesian mix, he is FULL of energy. Adopted another husky, Colt. He is 13 years old and loves stuffed toys. He has since passed and now I sadly can say I have that unique experience. If my dogs and your dog get along we can also set up play dates.

I needed a last-minute drop-in visit for my rabbits while I was out of town, and she was able to help on very short notice. She communicated well, checked on my pets promptly, and made sure they had what they needed. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to help when I was feeling worried. I would definitely book with her again!

Ally was just perfect. We had a great experience. She completed all that was requested to ensure our first session went smoothly. We had peace of mind knowing that our cat was well cared for.

Ally was very responsive from the moment we posted the job and gave us updates on our cats during our trip. Our cats took an immediate liking to her and were well loved while we were gone. Would definitely use Ally’s services again!

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.
