“Amazing as always!! I couldn’t recommend Carrington enough for any service you might need. She stayed at our house while we went out of town for a week and kept in constant communication with us the entire time, not to mention the amazing photos she takes!! Our house was so clean when we got home and it was such a relief to know we could trust our pups were in good hands while we were away!”
“Christina took great care of our fur babies while we were out of town getting married! We have never had someone stay in our home to take care of our animals besides family and there were no issues.”
“Marisela went above and beyond with my girls. I appreciate your willingness to help me in my day notice request. She was extremely understanding and patient to my eldest dog who takes a little longer to build trust. I highly recommend her services— I have very picky expectations who watches my girls.”
“As always, Joel is the best when it comes to looking after our home, and more importantly, our dog Loki. Loki loves Joel, and is always happy to see him! Joel takes such good care of Loki, keeps him to his routines and follows any special requests we might have. Joel takes great care of our home, always leaving it clean and tidy, and treats our space with respect. We have booked Joel for 3 weeks next year while we are overseas. Thank you Joel!”
“Wow! Mooney is fantastic! I think our dog Frankie might prefer Mooney to us at this rate 😂 Mooney did such a fantastic job taking care of our dog and home. He is reliable and his communication is top notch. And most importantly, you can tell he really cares about your pet. We will absolutely use him again for future pet/home sitting.”
“Cheryl was wonderful with our two dogs. We had a last minute emergency and asked Cheryl to start her house sitting stay earlier, which she was able to accommodate. Our dogs take some time to warm up to new people, but they seemed so comfortable in Cheryl's care, which gave us a ton of peace of mind during a difficult time. She was also great at communicating with us through the booking process and during her stay and was a very gracious house guest.”
“Lisa is super communicative. I felt comfortable with her in my home and to watch my doggy. He's a super shy husky and she had the patience to work with him. Hope to have Lisa again next time :)”
“This was the first time Jenna sat for our pets and home. She came to our house for a meet and greet in advance and came back the day before we left to review the pets routine. She asked very thoughtful questions about their needs and it is clear her vet tech background gives her a professional edge at caring for pets. This is particularly helpful for us as we have a cat with medical needs and some extra care requirements. Our house was clean and pets were happy when we returned. Would recommend.”
“Mehma has house sat my two dogs several times now (and hopefully many more times in the future). My dogs can be slow to warm up to new people, but it was love at first sight… although both have some separation anxiety, Mehma gives the calmest vibes and I think they really feel comfortable with her. She is also a great guest and always tidies up after herself. Mehma is trustworthy, flexible, dependable, and great with dogs, and I recommend her wholeheartedly!”
“We have a 3 legged dog who is very nervous, and not trusting of new people, he took to Dylan right away. Or other dog has medical problems and Dylan was able to apply her medicine and able to handle her without hurting her back. Dylan is very caring. We were also able to pay him to take us back and forth to airport, it was so convenient”
“Amazing with dogs and you cannot tell Tyler stayed in your home. Retuned to a tired, happy dog and clean house. Spot on communication if needed and very nurturing to Jasper. See you next visit”
“We have never had anyone stay at our house with our animals before, so the idea of leaving them with a complete stranger was very daunting. Sydney was absolutely wonderful with our two big, rambunctious dogs (2 year old huskies) and four cats. Our house was exactly as we left it and she sent lots of updates so we could see everyone’s sweet faces and how much fun they were having without us! She was terrific about updating us when she got here and letting us know how everything was going. She was always very responsive through the whole process, and it was very clear our animals were all comfortable and enjoying their normal routine with her. We will absolutely have Sydney back, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Amanda took excellent care of our 9 week old Bernadoodle puppy and left our home sparkling clean. Even our plants were well cared forr. Thurs was not an easy job, as we had juts brought our puppy home before the holiday and she’s not yet fully potty trained. Amanda was amazing with her and kept us updated on how she was doing. She is a lovely person to work with and a delight to have around. We will absolutely request her services again.”
“Jasmine was nothing short of amazing! She took care of our two dogs and our house for three days while we were on vacation. She is a natural with animals, making our rescue dogs feel safe and secure. They loved her! On top of taking them on walks and playing with them, she also kept our plants alive during the heatwave and fed the multitude of wild birds who frequent our feeders. She even laundered the sheets on the bed where she slept. All and all, we found her to be trustworthy and reliable, just like one of the family. We're so lucky to have found her.”
“Ashlin was wonderful to our fur babies. She sent updates with pictures while we were away. She did a great job housesitting as well! I highly recommend her for your petsitting needs!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,498 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marchant. 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 Marchant 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 Marchant 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 Marchant 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
