About: The well-being and happiness of animals are my priority, as it is something I truly enjoy. I am committed to providing responsible and attentive care, adapting to the needs of each pet. Whether during walks, playtime, or moments of companionship, I offer a safe, calm environment full of dedication. 🐾💙I have always been surrounded by pets in my family for a long time. Currently, I don’t have any pets because I plan to travel a lot next year, but in my heart, I still feel the need to care for or be accompanied by a little furry friend. 🐾💛 If there are any needs for your pet, don't hesitate to let me know, I am open to any requests all to ensure a happy and safe stay... I currently have a part-time job that varies a lot from week to week, so sometimes I have quite a few free days when I’m at home with my computer. I usually adapt well to each client’s needs, so the daily routine whether it’s just walks, daytime pet sitting, or in-home care varies depending on each owner’s requests. 🐾

About: My family dog Jake lives in Philadelphia, and we’re very very close. Whenever I’m home, I feed him home cooked meals, take him on walks often, spend time outside with him, and if I’m inside he follows me from room to room all day. We’ve built a special friendship even though I’m only able to see him for a few months of the year. I work online as a holistic health coach, which gives me a lot of flexibility to be home and give your dog the attention and love they deserve. I don’t see this as simply “pet watching”. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and would love to make them feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you’re away. I also love to cook, so I’m more than happy to prepare fresh, home cooked meals for your pets if that’s part of their routine. I love being outside too, so walks, park/beach trips, and plenty of time outdoors are things I’d genuinely look forward to. More than anything, I’d love to have dogs in my life more often. If I’m taking care of your dog, I want them to feel at home with me. I’m available any day of the week with at least 48 hours notice! I work online, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to spend a lot of time at home with your pets. Most of my work consists of independent work and client calls, all of which I can comfortably do while your pets are around. That way your pets can have plenty of company and care throughout the day without me needing to leave them alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to follow whatever routine works best for them. Whether that means playing outside in the yard, getting some exercise indoors, or simply relaxing and keeping them company. I’ll make sure they always have fresh + filtered water, are fed according to their normal routine, and get plenty of walks / attention throughout the day. I’m also a holistic health coach, so if your pets eat home cooked meals, I’d be more than happy to prepare their food as well. I spend most of my day outside and walk a lot, so frequent walks can easily fit into my routine. Finallh, if there’s any way you'd like me to curate the environment to support them then I’d be more than happy to do that!

Cathy and Mike are amazing 5 star ⭐️ caretakers all the way! Our cat Fletcher has Hypertrophic myocardiopathy and requires pills twice a day day, they took such loving care of our cat Fletcher. We also have a rambunctious 7 month puppy Toby, they sent us pictures and communicated all day long, it was a relief to have them move in and take over for us. We were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries. They also took such good care of our home, it was actually cleaner when we got back home! I have over 40 years of veterinary medicine experience, Cathy and Mike are exceptional care takers and I highly recommend them!

About: 🐾 Welcome! Hi! I’m Kacie, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur baby while you’re away. As an animal lover, with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, overnight boarding, or just some extra love and attention while you’re at work or on vacation, I’ll care for them like they’re one of my own. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, as well as cats of all ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering oral medications if needed, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. I am also CPR & First Aid certified, licensed and insured. Every dog is different, and I believe they deserve care that’s personalized to their needs and personality. ⸻ 🦴 Services I Offer • Daily dog walks • Drop-in visits • Puppy potty breaks • Feeding and fresh water • Playtime and enrichment • Belly rubs and lots of cuddles • Overnight boarding in your home where your fur baby is already comfortable with their space and surroundings. (Willing to board in my home as well if you prefer) • Picture, video and text updates daily • End of day puppy / dog report card • Last minute visits are always welcome 🤗 ❤️ What Makes Me Different When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family—not just another booking. I keep my schedule flexible so your dog or cat receives plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and one-on-one care throughout the day. I offer flexible scheduling for daily walks, drop-in visits, and boarding. Whether you’re working long hours, planning a vacation, or simply need an extra hand, I’ll do everything I can to accommodate your pet’s needs. 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my highest priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I am a CPR/FIRST AID PET-certified caregiver, I’m attentive, dependable, and committed to providing a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and secure. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can provide the best care possible. Whether we’re enjoying a walk, playing outside, or relaxing at home, your pet will always be supervised and treated with patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. My goal is to make their time away from you as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, along with text messages, and an end of day report card so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy, safe, and well cared for. Because to me, pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and I’ll care for yours the same way I’d want someone to care for mine.

About: I’ve grown up in a house full of dogs and cats my entire life. I’m patient and loving and if your dog or cat needs a comforting place to stay, I’m your girl. I allow pets on furniture and to cuddle in bed. I have two Cavalier King Charles who are friendly and playful to keep them company. Accidents happen and if they do I will handle it with a gentle approach if your dog is a puppy or a senior. I am not working during the summer so my days consist mostly of cuddling in the couch with my pets, home workouts and walks with my dogs. I walk my dogs on leashes on the sidewalk and occasionally take them to the dog park. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I am careful when I open my doors and ensure that each dog is leashed before opening the door to go outside for a walk.

About: I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them ever since! Neighbors and friends have often relied on me for dog sitting and knowing I’m dependable and gentle with every pup. I have experience giving medications, handling tiny dogs and large, energetic ones, and making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. I am currently working part-time at a dermatology office. My schedule is very flexible, so whether that be stopping by after work hours or being needed for a weekend, I can make things work! While I don’t currently have pets of my own, that allows me to give your dog my full attention and care. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe by following their normal routines as closely as possible—whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, going on walks they enjoy, or giving extra cuddle time. My goal is always to make your pet feel loved and at home, wherever they are.

About: I have four years of professional experience working with dogs, including three years as a kennel handler and one year training service dogs. My experience includes daily kennel care and handling, canine behavior management, obedience training, and service-dog preparation. I am comfortable working with dogs of varying breeds, temperaments, and training needs. I currently have flexible, 24/7 availability while I work from home and complete additional certifications. This allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day, including overnight stays and extended care when needed. I'm happy to work with your dog's individual routine and schedule. If your dog stays in my home, they'll have plenty of space to enjoy on my 2-acre property, as well as company throughout their stay. I have roommates and another dog in the home, so your dog would have the opportunity to have companionship, provided they are comfortable around other people and dogs. For in-home care at your home, I'm happy to provide whatever care your dog needs. I can follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication, training, and general companionship. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m dependable, active, will always provide playtime, feeding, check ins, and plenty of attention.

I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and can work with each pet’s normal schedule as much as possible. I will always make your pet’s safety and comfort my priority. I’ll follow and accommodate to any instructions you provide. Including feeding, walking, medications, routines, and house rules. I’ll keep pets supervised, use secure leashes during walks, and send updates so you know they’re safe and well cared for.

Things went fine other than I’d like a text when insulin was given to make sure it stayed on schedule. Very conscientious about making sure my travel plans stayed on time and actually changed plans by 2 days as my outgoing flight was canceled.

Ellie is a 2.5 year old golden retriever and full of energy and very headstrong, but Jordan does a great job of controlling her on walks and helping get out all of her energy.

WOW! That pretty much sums up our experience with Mara M. I had a meet and greet with Mara and Heart (our dog). It couldn't have gone any better. We felt so comfortable leaving our little girl (6.5 months) with such a wonderful person and dog mom. The drop off went very well. Heart was happy to be with Mara and her dogs. When we went to pick her up, it was obvious she had been very well taken care of and she was very happy. Mara (and her husband) went above and beyond in taking care of our baby, and we are confident that we have a great place for our dog to stay when we plan future trips. Every aspect of our experience with Mara was extremely positive.

This was our first time using Rover and Mara set the bar very high! Moxie loved her and you can tell that Mara loved her and dogs. She sent photos, took her for walks,and made sure Moxie was comfortable, especially since we were on vacation and Moxie was in unusual surroundings. Don't hesitate using Mara for your pet sitting needs. She is a wonderful person.

FAQs for House Sitting - Marco Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Marco Island on Rover is $85.79 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 455 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marco Island. 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 Marco Island 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 Marco Island 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 Marco Island 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 Marco Island. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
