“We had an amazing experience with Melissa! She stayed in our home for a week with our two dogs, one of whom has severe anxiety. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, gave him the space he needed, carefully read his body language, and earned his trust. She was reliable with his daily medications and patient in helping him feel comfortable. Our home was left spotless and respected, and it was clear she treated both our dogs and our space with great care. She even surprised us with a kind and thoughtful gesture at the end of the stay, which meant so much to our family. We are so grateful to have found her and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and professional sitter!”
“Xavier was fantastic. He communicated well, confirming details, asking questions and giving updates throughout his stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was well cared for. Would hire again in a heartbeat.”
“Odette kept our pups safe and happy during a heatwave and was so respectful of our house while we were away. She was easy to reach throughout the week. She went above and beyond to take care of the pups and house.”
“Morgan took great care of our two 100+ lb mastiffs and elderly 5lb cat over the July 4th weekend. The house was left in perfect shape. The animals were happy, minimally stressed even after a night of fireworks, and had zero complaints. Morgan kept us informed all throughout the booking of the animal's welfare and activities. A++, would book again.”
About: I can accommodate your pets needs. My home is ideally suited for pets–a spacious, fully-fenced backyard for dogs to run around safely, I will maintain a calming presence with your dog. Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others. I take our dog out for walks and play-time with other dogs in the neighborhood . Diesel is very friendly, energetic and loving. My house has a large fenced yard. It’s not my practice to crate dogs. However, I can crate your dog if requested. I provide dog beds and allow dogs to move about freely. No one else will be assisting me with caring for your dog.
“Could not recommend Melanie enough! She was very responsive to our messages and sent us daily updates with pictures about our pups without us asking. Left our place looking like she found it and the dogs seemed to love her company.”
“Lindsey was a wonderful companion for our very particular dog Kona. Her calm demeanor is fantastic! Lindsey took great care of both Kona and our house. I highly recommend her services.”
“Nikolina was so wonderful watching our cat, dog, and house for a long weekend! She was perfectly communicative, so sweet with the animals, and left our house spotless! She gave us such great peace of mind being out of town - we couldn’t recommend her more. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future!”
“Grace did a wonderful job staying with our dog and housesitting for a weekend. She was a great communicator, sent pictures and updates. Wouldn’t have even know she was in the house. We will for sure use her again and love having someone close by we can trust with our home and pup.”
About: Im available all the time and have a lot of time with my own dog and I have a cat too. I’ve taken care of a senior dog I adopted and trained my current dog pretty well. My day is open. The only thing that’s ever on my calendar is getting my daughters to school. Other than that, I’m usually home. I have a fenced yard and my dog is really friendly. The yard is on the smaller side but still has plenty of places to run around.
“Sherry was absolutely wonderful! We adopted Binx two months ago, and this was my first time to be away from her. Sherry kept in close communication with me and was an outstanding problem-solver. It could not have been a better experience!”
“Alexa was an amazing house sitter for our dog, Cookie and my sister’s bunny, Hashbrown. She was incredibly attentive to their needs and took care of Hashbrown as she was sick while we were away. She was very on top of giving little Hashbrown’s medicine and spent lots of time bonding with her. Alexa made sure to give Cookie lots of attention and exercise and was very flexible to Cookie’s personality. Cookie seemed very happy and healthy upon our return and I could tell she enjoyed her time with Alexa! Alexa left our apartment spotless and even left us dinner and snacks for our return. We will definitely be using Alexa’s services in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds all my life. I currently have my own 2 year old labrador mix who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old. I absolutely adore pets and know how important they are to owners and all pet parents. I am currently home for the summer and am studying for my license exam to become a licensed mental health professional. I am very flexible and open in terms of availability. I have a fenced backyard and my own socialized and friendly dog of my own. Also have a basement, if privacy concerns arise. Thank you.
About: As a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet owner, I’ve cared for dogs for more than 15 years. Most of my experience has been with medium and small breeds, giving me a strong understanding of their unique personalities, needs, and routines. I provide a safe, reliable, and caring environment where your dog will be treated like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company with cuddles, you can count on me to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I own a personal training business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be home throughout the day. When I’m away, it’s typically for scheduled training sessions at the gym. This flexibility allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of companionship for your dog. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and I truly treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I love spending quality time with them, whether that’s going for walks, tossing a ball around, or simply relaxing together with plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, giving them the attention and affection they deserve.
“Cindy & Tyler were absolutely fabulous! Cindy sent me a photo of my pup every day. My favorite one was when I saw my Leia cuddled up next to Tyler. Cindy told me that she also began to follow her around. Needless to say, it provided much comfort to know that my lil one clearly felt at home her new best friends. In addition, when I arrived at my house, it was exactly how I left it. So Cindy & Tyler thanks soooo much for taking such good care of my Leia & my house!!”
“We could not have left our dog, Waldo, in better hands than Stacey's! Stacey feels like family and Waldo felt that, too. We're grateful for her photo and video updates and attentive care. We strongly recommend Stacey!!”

Michelle did an amazing job taking care of my pups. She kept me updated frequently with messages and photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was incredibly accommodating and flexible—even after I had to change the dates twice, she was still able to make everything work. On top of that, she was so thoughtful and even gave toys to my kids, which meant a lot to us. She’s truly an amazing sitter, and I highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 8,909 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marbury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Marbury walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Marbury maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Marbury choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
