Personalized care for your dog or cat - Allen
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Allen
“Kayla and her husband were very informative, communicative, and a pleasure working with. She was constantly providing me photos and reassured me that my fur baby was eating and drinking! If you’re ever out of town and needing a great sitter then I’d definitely recommended Kayla!”
“Amy sent several pictures and updates throughout Olive's stay and was very responsive. I felt very comfortable that Olive was taken care of and would definitely use them again.”
“The dogs (all 3 of them could not be happier) to stay with the loveliest family. They spoiled them, exercised them and took such good care of my puppies that I don’t think they wanted to leave. Huge house and a beautiful property for dogs to play and romp and just have a blast!”
“I was so nervous leaving my Snoop with someone for the first time and Hope made things so much better. She sent pictures and messages the whole time! Snoop loved it I will definitely use her again if I need to!”
“Leaving my puppy was challenging since I am so attached to her, but Jeannette's updates of pics and videos helped me enjoy my trip and know that my baby was in good hands. She had a blast playing with other dogs that came in for daycare, too! Highly recommend!”
“Dana truly went above and beyond while caring for my pups during my time away. She followed all of their feeding instructions perfectly, stayed home with them throughout the day, and sent plenty of updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her home and secure fencing made me feel confident they were safe, and it was clear they had a great time. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Vedad and Karina had the perfect home and were the perfect people for my Millie. I was so worried that she would be too much as she has unbounded energy, but they have a great backyard and were really good about getting her the exercise she needs. They also gave her a lot of TLC. This was her first ever stay with a Rover person, and, by all accounts, she did great. That's due to Vedad and Karina! I will use them again for sure.”
“Deborah was the perfect sitter for our dog MaryAnn while we were away for 12 days overseas. We loved that Deborah had a big fenced in back yard, worked from home, and only took on one dog at a time. It helped recreate our dog’s typical experience at home. Deborah was quick to respond to our booking inquiry and was happy to set up a meet and greet in which she took many notes. Deborah clearly had a lot of dog experience on and off Rover and she was confident she and MaryAnn would get on well. Deborah would send us frequent updates and even handled MaryAnns tummy issues. She was also great about administering MaryAnn’s medications and heartworm pill as instructed. When we picked MaryAnn up she was clearly exhausted from spending lots of time playing out and she definitely seemed extremely happy and comfortable on Deborah’s home. Highly recommend Deborah for your boarding experience!”
About: I provide a safe, calm, and cozy environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including following feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and giving extra attention to older dogs who may need slower walks or more comfort and patience. I also enjoy helping reinforce basic training for young pups, including potty breaks, leash walking, and positive behavior routines. I believe communication is very important, so I keep owners updated with photos, videos, and messages for peace of mind. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, safe, and cared for like family. 🤍 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved and comfortable.My schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially for puppies or senior dogs who may need extra patience or specialized care.
“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Tawni was with my dog, Ivy Rose. This was a last-minute request and I was so nervous to leave Ivy while we went to the beach — I even cried when I left her. Tawni immediately reassured me that Ivy would be in great hands. She kept in constant contact the entire time, sending lots of updates and pictures, which truly gave me peace of mind. What really stood out is how mindful she was of Ivy’s temperament. Ivy can be apprehensive in new situations, and Tawni went out of her way to read her body language, respect her comfort zone, and make sure others gave her space. She even made sure Ivy was the only dog in her care, adjusting her schedule so my girl could feel completely safe. It’s rare to find someone so caring, attentive, and communicative. Tawni went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave Ivy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who treats your pet like family.”
“Cynthia went above and beyond my expectation of a boarder. She sent pictures of my dog enjoying himself with her family members. My dog is extremely nervous and I saw her bring out a calmness I’ve never seen before with anyone. She is 10 in my book❤️”
“Even after Leslie moved we decided to stay with her for boarding our dogs and I’m so glad we did! It’s a little longer of a drive for us but so worth it to keep the consistency and have someone who knows our dogs! The boys always have such a great time when they watch them!”
“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Peggy took amazingly great care of Amigo. Gave him special treats like a yogurt board and other puzzles. He loved many playful mornings in her great back yard with Peggy’s dog, Barklee! Her true love of dogs is apparent! Can’t think of enough great things to say! Book her with complete confidence!”
“Great new friends for Zulu to hang with!!! Their cool demeanor and willingness to take on an older puppers with seizure disorder left me knowing my best good buddy would be taken care of while we need to travel out of the country for work. I loved getting photos and videos while away. Will be back for more fun!!”
“Cheryl took such amazing care of our boys! They are old dogs who don’t do well in a boarding environment, so we were thrilled to find Cheryl and feel like they were really comfortable and got lots of personal love and attention while we were away. They also had lots of toys, comfy beds, carpeted floors, and a fenced yard at Cheryl’s house. Will definitely book with Cheryl again!!”
“Jackson had a fantastic time. Bradley & Stephanlee took care of my boy and treated him like family. Was attentive to any request I had. Communication was fast and easy.”
“Tucker had the best weekend with Carolina and her sweet girls! They were so kind and welcoming, and the video updates throughout his time there were wonderful. She was wonderful!”
“Jenna is just lovely! She took care of my little chiweenie so that we could attend a family reunion. My little girl had a few mishaps in the beginning but found her routine and she did well. Jenna was very supportive, comforting and welcoming. I would definitely use her services again and recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve always had cats growing up & adopted one of my own when I was 19. Frosty and I have now been best friends for the last 5 years. My boyfriend also has a Maine coon. I have lots of experience with outgoing as well as the shyest of cats.
“Alannah is such an amazing sitter. She is so patient and kind, my cat is a little shy at first and she did so well getting him comfortable with her. I would recommend her to anyone and will be booking again in the near future. Thank you so much for caring for my baby!”
About: I have raised my first cat since was a kitten and I recently welcomed a second into my family. I understand their unique personalities and body language. I’m experienced with everything from feeding routines to litter box maintenance and playtime. My goal is always to make cats feel safe, comfortable and loved while their humans are away.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and have consistently been a primary caregiver. This ranges for when they were puppies/kittens all the way to senior age. I’ve also spent decent amounts of time the past two years pet sitting dogs and cats of various ages for friends and family! I’m currently in between undergraduate and graduate school so I currently just do online gig work. I make my own schedule so my availability is essentially wide open. In your home I’m always going to be very cognizant of the animals needs and their comfortability. If your pet needs exercise I am in great cardio shape and frequently run so I am always open to going on runs with your dog if they are high energy! I’m also very familiar with leashes and harnesses so if you don’t have fencing or if your pet is used to only going potty with a leash I am ready for that. I also love cats and will always make sure they get lots of love and attention!

“Jeanette is such a joy to have your pet around! She is organized and detail. She provides updates and love to my Melo. Melo deals with separation anxiety but he enjoyed his time with her. He came home worn out and had a great time. I would recommend her to anyone with a little one.”
About: I have lifelong experience with dogs, caring for both my own and others’ pets since childhood. My experience includes providing attentive care to elderly dogs, particularly during my time with my aging corgi. While I love dogs of all ages, I understand the unique needs of senior dogs and am committed to ensuring their comfort and well-being. Unfortunately, we cannot accept pit bulls or Staffordshire terriers. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to tailor my schedule to your dog’s needs and level of activity. I can provide exceptional care for your pet because I will be home all day during the work week. I am especially good at following your instructions. I have been been taking a walk every day for years and would love to take your dog with me.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, including my own well-trained dog. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets of all temperaments. My friends and family often ask me to babysit their dogs because they know I provide loving, attentive care. I treat every dog like they’re part of my family, ensuring they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. My availability for pet care is open every day of the week until December 13. I’m flexible with both daily and monthly routines, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s schedule and needs. At home, I provide a safe and welcoming environment where dogs feel loved and cared for.

I follow all instructions for feeding, exercise, and health needs, ensuring a trustworthy and safe experience for both pets and their owners.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid. It comes natural to me. Because I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone all day. They will get consistent attention and supervision. I currently offer house sitting, doggy daycare, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have a special soft spot for big, goofy pitties, but every pup is welcome. I’m attentive, patient, and tuned in to each dog’s individual needs. whether that’s walks, playtime or cuddle breaks. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home. Working from home allows for consistent potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime and supervision. I have flexibility on the weekends as well. I can accommodate longer stays. I provide a calm, secure, and attentive environment whether pets are in my home or yours. I live in a house with a large yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m mindful of slow, respectful introductions since I also have a cat. In clients’ homes, I follow care instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, comfort, and safety — treating your space and your pet with the same respect I would my own.

“Great first experience using Rover. Kimberly provided videos and detailed updates on what my puppy was doing during the day. He came home and passed out! He had so much fun. Would rebook again with her 100%”

About: I grew up with having a dog around the house, so I have always loved being around pets. The last two summers I have pet sat for families while they were on vacation. Some of the dogs I have taken care of have had medical needs, so I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I look forward to working and taking care of your pet! During the summer I have more availability outside of when I am on vacation. For house sitting services, I am happy to provide overnight care for your pet. There will be times I will leave the home to run errands, go to work, family time and etc. But I will make sure that your pet’s routine is kept in tact and that they get all the snuggles and love they need. I am a full time teacher so once the school year starts my availability will change. I will not be able to provide pet care in my home. But I can provide pet care in a clients home. I am able to provide walks, feed your pet, provide snuggles, and medication if needed. I will ensure the client home stays clean if I am booked for overnight pet care. If it is too hot outside I may limit the time for the walk. I will also bring a water bottle with a bowl to make sure your dog does not overheat.
“Kim took great care of my dog while I was away for a weekend. She cared for Indie like she was truly her own. She kept me updated and was flexible and timely. I recommend Kim highly for dog walking!”
“Halle has walked our dog several times. She communicates well and takes our pup for nice long walks. I had some initial hesitance using any dog walking service because our dog is large, strong, and can act aggressively toward other dogs - but Halle has confidently worked with her and made accommodations as needed. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up with six family dogs, I gained experience with all kinds of personalities, ages, and needs. Recently, I helped care for three of my senior dogs through their later years, teaching me the importance of patience and attentiveness. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since elementary school and have been caring for pets through Rover since high school. I also have volunteer experience with animal shelters and am comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Dogs truly feel like family to me, and I treat every pet I care for with the same love and attention I would give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule while studying for my North Carolina real estate license, so I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays on YOUR schedule. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I recently graduated and am focused on studying for my real estate exam right now, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m more than happy to accommodate to your dog’s regular routine. I will not be able to bring dogs into my residence but will gladly take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home and outdoor spaces.
“Kim was so great taking Indie on walks even when she’s such a big, reactive dog. I was out of town for a week and I came home to Indie being just as happy and healthy as when I left. Thank you, Kim!”

About: Hi there! I’m a warm, enthusiastic dog lover who treats every pup like family!

I deeply understand the unique tempos, comfort levels, and routines required at every stage of a dog's life.

I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby. To help me plan my day and provide the best care for all guests, please limit requested drop-off and pick-up times to a maximum two-hour window. Shorter time frames are greatly appreciated, as broad windows spanning several hours can make scheduling difficult. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

About: I can easily say I have never met a dog I did not like! I am an equine veterinarian that graduated from Kansas State! I have experience with all kinds of animals. I have fostered dogs off and on for the last 6 years so I have tons of experience with different personalities and adjusting to what each new dog needs. I have a fenced in back yard and my husband and I are always outside doing something with nature and animals! Your dog will have TONS of fun whether we go for hikes, binge watch Netflix or have tons of play time! I do have 4 very friendly cats so if your pet is not cat friendly or has a high prey drive do not apply. I am a horse veterinarian so if they are with me during the week, we may go for a few truck rides to farm calls! I am very active and we love to go for hikes and go on walks daily. I have a fenced backyard, plenty of room to have fun. I am also a veterinarian and able to provide medical care/emergency care if needed while with me.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and have consistently been a primary caregiver. This ranges for when they were puppies/kittens all the way to senior age. I’ve also spent decent amounts of time the past two years pet sitting dogs and cats of various ages for friends and family! I’m currently in between undergraduate and graduate school so I currently just do online gig work. I make my own schedule so my availability is essentially wide open.

About: Since I was ten years old, family, friends and neighbors have given me the privilege to help walk, feed, play with and bathe their pets. My sister is a vet, and growing up, the running family joke was that we owned a zoo since we had three dogs, two cats, a bunny and a horse. Being around animals from such a young age and at times helping my sister in her vet practice has allowed me to be comfortable with a wide variety of dog temperaments, sizes and needs. People who have hired me to watch their pets in the past have been impressed by my ability to provide them with personalized care. I consider myself a "dog person" and have found that dogs tend to gravitate towards me. As someone who considers pets part of the family, I understand how important it can be to make sure pets' needs are taken care of while owners are away from the home. I promise to treat your pet like my own and make sure they get lots of pets, play and love while you are gone. I'm currently a solopreneur, so I set my own schedule and have flexibility to work with your needs for times to walk your dog. For house sitting, I work from home, so I can stay with your pets any weekday or weekend that I am available. Anytime you book me to housesit, I ask that my husband can stay at your place with me (that way your pet is getting two humans to give them attention and pets for the price of one). Providing your dog with personalized care is important to me when staying at your home. As part of my house sitting services, I provide a free 15-30 minute home visit with you present. This visit allows us to make sure we both feel comfortable with the arrangement, your dog is familiar with me, and I can easily find all the necessary supplies to best care for your pet. When staying at someone else's home, I treat your place like it is my own and am always mindful to pick up after myself and leave the place as clean as I found it.

“Vedad and Karina had the perfect home and were the perfect people for my Millie. I was so worried that she would be too much as she has unbounded energy, but they have a great backyard and were really good about getting her the exercise she needs. They also gave her a lot of TLC. This was her first ever stay with a Rover person, and, by all accounts, she did great. That's due to Vedad and Karina! I will use them again for sure.”
“Deborah was the perfect sitter for our dog MaryAnn while we were away for 12 days overseas. We loved that Deborah had a big fenced in back yard, worked from home, and only took on one dog at a time. It helped recreate our dog’s typical experience at home. Deborah was quick to respond to our booking inquiry and was happy to set up a meet and greet in which she took many notes. Deborah clearly had a lot of dog experience on and off Rover and she was confident she and MaryAnn would get on well. Deborah would send us frequent updates and even handled MaryAnns tummy issues. She was also great about administering MaryAnn’s medications and heartworm pill as instructed. When we picked MaryAnn up she was clearly exhausted from spending lots of time playing out and she definitely seemed extremely happy and comfortable on Deborah’s home. Highly recommend Deborah for your boarding experience!”
“Even after Leslie moved we decided to stay with her for boarding our dogs and I’m so glad we did! It’s a little longer of a drive for us but so worth it to keep the consistency and have someone who knows our dogs! The boys always have such a great time when they watch them!”
“Peggy took amazingly great care of Amigo. Gave him special treats like a yogurt board and other puzzles. He loved many playful mornings in her great back yard with Peggy’s dog, Barklee! Her true love of dogs is apparent! Can’t think of enough great things to say! Book her with complete confidence!”
“Great new friends for Zulu to hang with!!! Their cool demeanor and willingness to take on an older puppers with seizure disorder left me knowing my best good buddy would be taken care of while we need to travel out of the country for work. I loved getting photos and videos while away. Will be back for more fun!!”
“Cheryl took such amazing care of our boys! They are old dogs who don’t do well in a boarding environment, so we were thrilled to find Cheryl and feel like they were really comfortable and got lots of personal love and attention while we were away. They also had lots of toys, comfy beds, carpeted floors, and a fenced yard at Cheryl’s house. Will definitely book with Cheryl again!!”
“Jackson had a fantastic time. Bradley & Stephanlee took care of my boy and treated him like family. Was attentive to any request I had. Communication was fast and easy.”
“Tucker had the best weekend with Carolina and her sweet girls! They were so kind and welcoming, and the video updates throughout his time there were wonderful. She was wonderful!”
“Haley was amazing with our dog Abby! She communicated promptly, sent a lot of pictures and videos, and gave us updates all the time. You could really tell that she gave our dog a lot of attention and care to make her feel right at home. I will definitely book with her again!”
“The dogs truly enjoyed being sleuth Beth and her husband. We got frequent updates and pictures on them while we were on vacation. Will be happy to use them again for our dogs and would recommend them to anyone looking to use Rover.com.”
“First time using Rover and first time with Daniel. Our dog, Braxton, felt right at home the minute he walked in the door. Daniel was wonderful and sent pictures shortly after we dropped him off. Braxton can't wait to come back in May for his next visit with Daniel. Thanks!”
“Wynde was fantastic! We left her with our foster dog, who is still transitioning from crisis and kennel life to our home ( 6 weeks) and then to hers for a long weekend. Wynde was so accommodating, as with her family and pets. She was flexible with my schedule changes leaving and coming back in town; went above and beyond with making emotional space for our foster to feel in control, and welcoming any small act toward connection from our foster. It only took two days before I received one of many pictures of our pup laying on top of Wynde, all 45 lbs. I highly recommend her and will call on her again! Debbie”
