“Waymon was great! He house sat and took care of of my kitty Freya for quite a long stay. Freya clearly loved him! He send lots of photo updates and everything went smoothly! Thank you Waymon!”

“Our first time using Ryan since moving to the area and he was fantastic! Gave us daily updates on our dogs and the house was spotless when we got home. Our boys can be a lot so finding a good sitter is hard but we would definitely use him again!!”

“Love when Christina is up for hanging with the pups. She’s the absolute best! Her care, communication, everything is the highest quality! And she makes it look easy. We love love love her!”

“Cheryl was great with my two dogs and cat. Followed their routines, sent daily photos and updates and left my house cleaner than when I left! I would definitely book her again.”

“Katie was beyond amazing. She went up and beyond our expectations. She followed our rules with our babies. She fed them and took them in the backyard to play ball with them. Even took them on a few walks around the neighborhood. She kept updating me about them and sent me lots of pictures while we were away o”


“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!”

“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.”

“Dill has the best time with Jack! They go to the dog park, walks by the river and I can tell my pup is always excited for the adventure. It’s great leaving your dog with someone that spends so much time playing with them.”

About: As a veterinary student at UC Davis, I have both professional knowledge and a lifelong love of animals. I’ve spent much of my life fostering dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to seniors, so I’m very comfortable adapting care to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs. One thing that’s especially important to me is the human–animal bond. Our pets are family, and I understand the amount of trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I always strive to treat every animal as if they were my own while also respecting the routines and preferences that make them (and you!) feel most comfortable. I believe strong communication with owners is essential. I strive to provide consistent updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to give you and your pet peace of mind, ensuring your pet feels loved and well cared for and that you feel confident they are in knowledgeable, attentive hands. Through my veterinary training and extensive hands-on experience, I’m also comfortable administering medications and monitoring pets for any health concerns, especially for senior pets or those who need a little extra care. As a veterinary student at UC Davis, my schedule is decently structured, which makes it easy for me to plan dedicated time for pet care. Throughout the week, I’m able to schedule visits, walks, and check-ins, depending on what is needed, around my classes and studying. I always ensure that every animal gets the attention that they need, rather than rushing it. Caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life and future career, so spending time with pets fits very naturally into my routine. I prioritize reliability and consistency, and I always plan my schedule carefully so I can provide dependable care and clear communication with owners. I believe it is important to provide updates on when I visit and how your pet is doing! Whether it’s regular visits, walks, or check-ins while you’re away, I make sure each pet gets attentive, thoughtful care and that owners receive consistent updates. I always prioritize safety for your animal, but also ensuring that they have a comfortable environment that is the least disrupted when you're gone. I am very attentive to detail to the needs of your pets and ensure that all requests get done!
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and turtles. they were family pets and i learned a lot watching my siblings raise their dogs. i have a 7 year old cat that i've raised since he was a kitten. I have also fostered another cat for a few months. although introducing my cat with the foster was time consuming, it was worth to see them get along. I work part time as a barista. i don't have set days off but i work very early mornings. i am also taking a couple online courses, but i go at my own pace so im flexible with afternoons and evenings. just like with little humans, i make sure cleaning supplies, little choking hazards, and toxic foods are stored high in storage closets where my cat can't get into. i vacuum regularly in case i have dropped small pieces of plastic (that my cat loves more than toys for some reason). i will occasionally pet sit for my sister when she is away on vacation. i don't assume i know her pets better than she does, so i have texted her before about a concern i had about her dog. i fed both her pets at the same time, but one refused to eat. instead of assuming that her dog would eventually eat, i reached out to know if there was anything i could do differently and the solution was a change in environment. i would then feed them in separate rooms and that did the trick. i loved sending her pictures of them unprompted and when asked.
“Danielle took amazing care of our dog and two cats! We received daily updates, and I appreciated that she checked in when our dog’s behavior changed (it was just our dog being her weirdo self). When we got home, it was obvious our pets were happy and well cared for, and our house was possibly cleaner than we had left it! We will def hire Danielle again!”

“Mya took great care of our dog and house while we were away for a long weekend! She sent updates and pictures daily and it was very easy to communicate with her both before and during the stay. Highly recommended!”


About: Hi! I'm Susi, and my goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible, for both you and your pets. My experience comes from being a lifelong dog owner and understanding firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I know that every dog has their own routine, comfort level, and quirks that make them who they are. That’s why I focus on providing personalized care for one family at a time, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your pet can feel safe and loved. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, so I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I'll follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and bedtime routines, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. When your pet stays with me, they'll receive the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I’ve structured my schedule so every pet in my care receives consistent attention, companionship, and supervision. I’m home everyday of the week and have plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am-12pm and 6pm-9pm, but someone is always home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. Because I only care for one family’s pets at a time, I’m able to give them focused, personalized care instead of dividing my attention between multiple bookings. My goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress free as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment where pets can settle in and feel like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard for supervised potty breaks, playtime, and outdoor enrichment, along with a quiet dog park just a few blocks away that is usually empty. I only use the park when it is appropriate for the individual dog and with the owner’s permission. I also have a dog (Jayda) of my own who is friendly, calm, and respectful of other dogs’ boundaries. I always prioritize safe introductions and closely monitor interactions so every pet feels comfortable. If a visiting dog is not comfortable around other dogs, my home has separate rooms and spaces where pets can be safely kept apart whenever necessary. Their comfort and safety always come first. Because I care for one family at a time, I can give each pet personalized attention and follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. For care in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. During drop-ins or house sitting, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box or yard cleanup, medication when needed, playtime, affection, and any other care instructions provided. For walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and letting each dog move at a pace that suits their age, energy level, and comfort. No matter the service, I send regular photo and message updates so owners can feel confident knowing their pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care.
“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!”

“Aicha did a fantastic job taking care of our very active border collie. She is professional, caring, and a clear communicator. Aicha stayed in our home for 3 weeks and sent consistent updates with photos that showed our dog relaxing while connecting with her and enjoying himself on walks. She also left the house in great shape and even helped with watering my plants. We are really grateful she stayed in our home while we were away and we would absolutely trust her again in the future. Thank you, Aicha!”

“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 :)”

About: I've had pets all of my adult life and most of my adolescence. When I was a teen my dad decided he wanted a farm and I helped care for cows, sheep, goats, chickens, and ducks. I have also been around horses since I was 7 and currently have a roommate that has horses and I help care for them on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I started dog sitting for friends when I was 19 or 20 and do it when I can even now. I love animals and have helped with many different kinds. Currently my husband and I have 2 dogs, Rory (female, doberman) and Brianna (female Chihuahua/Corgi mix) Wednesdays, and thursdays I help my roommate feed/water her horses once in the morning and once in the late afternoon. Currently, I have an in person class on mondays and wednesdays at 6pm and 2 other classes online. Sunday afternoons and Tuesday evenings I have religious meetings I go to other than that I am free to stay at someone's house let them out during the day or even stay for a bit to visit with the fur-babies while I do some school work. Im not offering boarding at my home, but when visiting someone else's house I am able to feed, check waters, clean up little accidents, and let the dog in and out of the home into their yard or if the dog/owner prefers a quick walk I can do that too. I can also throw their favorite toy around with them if this is the preferred exercise
“We’re so grateful for Analisa. She agreed to watch our boys at the very last minute and was excellent in communicating with us her entire stay. We will definitely be using her for our future needs.”

“Joel is an excellent dog/house sitter. He has bonded well with Loki, (our big German Shepherd/Husky cross) and is very patient, and very calm around him, which in turn keeps Loki calm! Joel is accommodating, responsive, flexible, professional and respectful. Joel is also very respectful of our home. We have already booked Joel a few times in coming months. We highly recommend Joel to look after your best furry canine friend, and your home while you are away!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,459 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marchant. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
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.
