“I highly, highly recommend Liz to watch your furry loved ones! Liz is excellent at keeping communication and sending pictures along with updating how our pups were doing while we were away. You’re making a mistake if you don’t book Liz, she’s the best and will always use her for our pups!”

About: My laberdoodle, Cody, passed away about a year and a half ago. We brought him home at 6 weeks old and had the opportunity to spend 13 amazing years with him. Within those 13 years, I gained the exposure and knowledge to care for a dog during all life cycles— puppy and senior. Cody also had epilepsy, so I am familiar with giving medication and what to look for/ warning signs in dogs with epilepsy and senior dogs. I am also a dog walker/sitter for a beautiful 3 year old rescue named Wheezie. Spending time with her has brought so much joy to my life. My schedule is very open right now and I’m extremely flexible so please feel free to message me for drop-ins, house sitting, or last minute bookings! I am also extremely active and would love to take your dogs for a walk and get my steps! Looking forward to chatting! I am currently in between jobs and looking to do something in the meantime! I’d like to combine my love for animals and walking whilst doing something flexible to my schedule. I treat all animals as if they’re my own. Always respecting the dogs space and property is #1. I have a fenced in yard with a pool if they need to come back here for any reason!

About: I have been around dogs since I was born, my parents have had a total of 6 dogs and 1 cat, which we fostered. I currently take care of a beagle/cocker spaniel mix and a boxer/lab mix, so I have experience with smaller and larger dogs. I am currently working a flexible part-time job. My Rover calendar is updated each week according to my weekly job schedule. I am able to accommodate walk times around my shifts. I endure safety depending on the owner, checking all windows, doors, and gates are locked 24/7. I keep the residency clean and organized and clean up after myself and their pets.

About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote most days. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park

“Sara has consistently impressed us with the kindness and reliability of her pet care. She is so good with Alfredo and communicates frequently to let us know how he’s doing. We feel very lucky to have her watch our dog when we leave and know he’s in good hands. She is also quick to let us know her availability.”

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I've watched many neighbors, family, and friends fur babies, alongside caring for my own dog and cats, over the years. I've even cared for a rabbit, hamster, and fish on occasion. I am no stranger to caring for pets with medical requirements, or cats and dogs who are older and need a little more patience on walks, going up stairs, or just moving around. Animals all have their own personalities, just like humans, and I treat each pet with compassion, love, and care; as if they are my own. I'm well-versed in giving cats and dogs medication; my dog takes meds every morning. I will tread your pets with kindness and respect and work with you to ensure you are comfortable with me and our working relationship. I have a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. I am able to accommodate caring for (feeding, playing, spending time with, etc) and/or walking your fur baby during the week and most weekends. I'm happy to work with you and accommodate a schedule that benefits you and your fur baby! Safety and security are top priority. I want to ensure I care for your pet(s) in a comfortable, happy, and safe manor. I would like to learn about your pet(s), how you would like me to care for them, and have an open communication throughout my time caring for your fur baby. Happiness and trust are extremely important for all parties involved!

About: I have a love for all animals, but especially for dogs. I have experience with both dog day care and dog walking services. I have taken care of my own dogs over the years, both big and small, and would love to have an opportunity to care for others. I would love to sit for other kinds of pets as well. I have had a number of pets over the years, including cats, fish, birds, turtles, hamsters and geckos. I live right near the airport, so drop off and pickup around your vacation is super convenient! I am available all day every day to care for your pet. Spending quality time with animals is therapeutic for me. I love taking the time each day to care for them and play with them. I love exercising with pets and making sure they are happy and healthy. I prefer to spend at least an hour with each pet. Taking the time to play, exercise, and eat good food is essential! I love to make sure a pet's quality of life is just as good as mine.

“Jamiah dropped by my apartment daily to take care of my two cats while I was on vacation, including feeding them and cleaning the litter boxes. Since cats get stressed in new environments, I really did not want to board them, so the house visits worked out great! Jamiah is super friendly and has cats of her own, so I knew I wouldn't have to worry leaving them. She took great care of the cats and sent lots of photos. I would definitely recommend Jamiah for pet-sitting!”

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Marcus Hook

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 8,603 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Marcus Hook. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Marcus Hook 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!

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Marcus Hook with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marcus Hook. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
