About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born and I know how to properly care for them! I am experienced in feeding, walking, and playing with dogs! I currently work part time Monday through Friday so I have plenty of free time to take care of and play with pets! I am great with all animals! I currently have a cat and a German Shorthair Pointer pup who is about 8 months old! I take my dog to the dog park daily and he loves running around and getting all his energy out!
“This was my first time entrusting my pets and access to my home to someone in this app. I’m so glad that I met Estefanny. She took care of my pets, was punctual, and communicated well. Thank you Estefanny!”
About: Hello! I am looking to build a career in housesitting as well as cat and dog sitting too! Staying clean and busy fits right into my routine, so why not let me help out? No need to worry about your baby, I have plenty of experience with all types of breeds. Big or small, I am up for the challenge. I have also personally worked with senior dogs and puppies, along side kittens and older cats. Growing up I was able to educate myself in real time by learning to take care of multiple dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish, occasionally all at the same time. I am super excited to meet some furry friends! And maybe some not so furry friends too!? I currently work about 30 hours a week in fast food. Most days, I am off from anywhere between 10:30am-12pm, but there are a few days I work a little later, until 2pm. However, I am extendable, willing, and able to request off for an extended period of time, if need be. I have three fur babies of my own, two being orange and the other being grey. Sasha, Sunny and Haze have turned out to be some pretty cool roommates. Sunnt and Haze are brothers that I believe are a mix between a white, male ragdoll, and a female tabby who's coat remains unknown. We took Sasha in as a stray, making her a newer addition to our family. As much havoc as they cause, they bring so much love and life to our apartment. They are incredibly spoiled with toys such as fake mice, crinkle balls, springs, foam balls, plastic balls, foam darts, cat scratchers, stuffies filled with catnip, mesh finger traps, supervised feathers, as well as a couple battery powered toys and interactive slow feeders. Kitties eat three small portions of dry food throughout the day and are then offered wet food for supper. We don't host very often and as a result to that, I would say Sunny and Haze meet the introvert requirements upon first impression. Sasha is incredibly vocal and attentive.
About: I've had a love/passion for dogs since I was born into this life. Growing up, I've always had a dog in the house, so it easily became the norm for me. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds, including doberman, pitbulls, great dane, labs, boxers, beagles, and mutts. I truly love them all. I'm open to taking care of all breeds. I don't discriminate! One thing I will note is that I specialize in high energy/working dogs and am very familiar with larger breeds. Just to give you a quick example, I raised a Doberman from a puppy which led to me learning A LOT throughout the process. Doberman are a working breed and require plenty of mental and physical stimulation & I think I cracked the code! I’ve developed a deep understanding of what high-energy dogs need to thrive. I'm good at stimulating their minds, keeping them active and most importantly, happy. I'm not a certified dog trainer, but I do understand the importance of balancing their physical and mental well-being, and I'm dedicated to ensuring each dog has a great time with me! I'm very engaging and mindful, so whatever your dog may need, whether it's staying active outside or relaxing at home, I will do my best to provide. That's a promise. When it comes to availability, I am free at the moment. You can contact me any time and I will get back to you asap. I will make sure you feel comfortable with leaving your pets with me. To ensure you of this, I will send you daily photos & videos to show you how good of a time they're having! Also, you can give me a call ANYTIME. I know what it's like to drop my dogs off at a pet sitter's house, so my job is to give you the relief of knowing that your pets are in great hands. I can guarantee you this🙂

I work from home, therefore I am always around ready to care for your dogs. I am super flexible so I can take them out, walk them, play with them around the clock.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and size's. Friends, neighbors, and family often rely on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with senior dogs, energetic puppies, and pets with special routines. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I always treat every pet like my own. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide morning, midday, and evening visits during the week. Weekends are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m responsible, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. I live in a pet-friendly apartment that’s clean, safe, and comfortable for your furry friend. I take frequent walks and make sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I’m very mindful of leash safety, secure entrances, and keeping pets calm in new environments. Whether your dog loves outdoor strolls or prefers cozy naps, I make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for.
About: I am a special education teacher looking to keep busy and make a little extra money this summer! I currently have two cats, but have also had dogs my whole life. I have also had turtles, fish, and even a mini pig. I have experience caring for birds as well. My schedule is pretty open! I am a special education teacher with my summer off! I have a few set plans over the summer- such as a trip to Disneyland for a week in July. But, in general, I’m pretty flexible. I feed, groom, clean litter boxes, and love all animals that I care for. I also will take especially active animals for walks or play with them in the house.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marengo
We have a finicky little dog, but Lisa tried her best to work with our little 17 yr old boy and was able to get him to go for a little walk, and let us know how he did with photos. We had the Settlers Day Parade going on for one of her visits so it was a challenge with all the noise and people traffic. Lisa was great and did all she could to accommodate our little Andre’. I would hire Lisa again♥️

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Marengo is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,787 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Marengo. 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 Marengo 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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 Marengo 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 Marengo. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 cancellation policy, 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.
