“Louann took very good care of Lexi. Lexi was glad to see us when we got home, but is missing Louann. I would highly recommend Louann as both a pet sitter as well as a house sitter.”
“Andrew did an outstanding job caring for our dogs, Brody and Gus.He was extremely responsive, sent daily updates with photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our fur babies were well cared for, happy, and loved throughout our trip. Knowing Andrew was watching them allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our travels without worrying. We came home to two happy dogs and a well-cared-for home. We highly recommend Andrew and will absolutely be using him again in the future!”

“Finding Addison was truly a blessing. Our original pet sitting plans fell through at the very last minute, and I was so fortunate to find her when I did. From the moment I met her, I just had a great feeling. She has such a kind, calming personality, and all of my dogs immediately took to her—which never happens! They’re usually very reserved with new people and take time to warm up, but with Addison it was instant. That alone gave me so much confidence. Throughout our trip, Addison kept me updated every single day without me ever having to ask. She sent photos, shared what the dogs and cats were up to, and made me feel like I was right there with them. She followed every instruction perfectly and honestly went above and beyond in so many ways. One of the sweetest surprises was coming home to little things she had done around the house that I never asked her to do. She even emptied the dishwasher and put all the dishes away. When I thanked her, she said her mom always taught her that after a trip, people should come home to a clean house so they can truly relax. That really touched me. Kudos to Addison—and to her mom—for raising such an incredible young woman. The greatest gift she gave me was peace of mind. Knowing my dogs and cats were loved, cared for, and genuinely enjoying their time with her allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation without worrying about them. That’s priceless. I already have another trip planned, and Addison will absolutely be my first choice. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She exceeded every expectation, and I am beyond grateful to have found her.”

“She was beyond amazing. First trip in as long as I can remember that I did not worry about my dogs. I have a dog with anxiety and normally come back to some sort of destructive behavior and absolutely none with Jayne watching them. Not enough stars to truly express the best sitter who accommodated what we needed”

“Gabbi did a wonderful job for us. She's responsible and conscientious and loved on our pup so well that when we returned home, the sad story our dog gave us was very short compared to other times we've had to leave her. That alone, made us feel so relieved knowing she was so well cared for. We will definitely be using Gabbi and her services again!”

“Rickey was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first moment of our meet-and-greet, she radiated warmth, kindness, and a genuine love for animals. My dogs sensed it immediately; they gravitated toward her with an ease and comfort that spoke louder than words. That initial interaction set the tone for an experience that exceeded every expectation I had. Throughout her time with my pups, Rickey demonstrated an exceptional level of attentiveness and care. She maintained constant communication, providing thoughtful updates along with beautifully captured photos and videos that allowed me to feel connected to my dogs even from afar. What truly astonished me were the personal touches—she not only took wonderful pictures but went the extra mile by printing them and creating custom refrigerator magnets. This gesture was so heartfelt and unexpected, and it genuinely moved me. It’s rare to find someone who puts such intention and love into the smallest details. What stood out most was the authenticity of her affection for my dogs. She didn’t just “watch” them—she bonded with them, celebrated them, and treated them with the kind of tenderness and respect you’d hope for from a trusted family member. As someone who normally experiences significant anxiety when leaving my animals during travel, I was surprised by the sense of peace I felt throughout my entire trip. Not once did I question their safety or happiness; I knew, unequivocally, that they were in exceptional hands. Rickey has earned my complete trust, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re searching for someone who is not only reliable and professional, but truly extraordinary in the way she cares for animals, look no further. Your pets could not be in better hands, and I wholeheartedly encourage you not to hesitate—she is a rare find”

“Connor did a great job in getting Bella comfortable with him for his first sit. He sent photos daily, promptly answered my messages and left the house in excellent condition. I will use his service again.”

“Monique was great! Had a last minute hiccup come up, but Monique was flexible and worked around issue to make sure she was still able to care for Wyatt. Super responsive. Very consistent and timely in providing updates and photos. Could tell she was going to be very sweet w/ Wyatt upon meeting her, and I was right. 10/10 recommend”

“Great Sitter🙏 We had a great experience with our dog sitter! She stayed overnight and was incredibly responsive, proactive, and dependable. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent us enough updates to know our dogs were doing well without us ever having to worry. It honestly made being away a lot easier knowing they were in good hands. She took the time to make sure everything was taken care of and went above and beyond what we expected. We really appreciated how reliable and communicative she was and would absolutely have her watch our dogs again. Highly recommend!”

“Cass took amazing care of our pups! She is our go to person anytime we need someone to watch them. She truly loves our girls like family and totally love her too! Only reason not to recommend her is making her too busy to take of our pups. :)”

About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them. I help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their usual routines so they feel comfortable and at ease. I follow care instructions closely and pay attention to each pet’s personality and energy level, making sure they get the attention and care they need. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home, which gives me flexibility during the day for drop-in visits and check-ins. I’m fully available after 4:30 on weekdays. I’m also fully available on weekends, so I can offer complete care during Saturday and Sunday. I follow care instructions closely, keep homes tidy, and make sure pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for. I’m respectful of your space and will always communicate updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Magee-Lee did amazing with our two pups! One of our babies is very shy but she didn't seem to have a problem with Magee! We will be using her for future needs and definitely recommend to anyone that needs any pet service (including overnight). Shes extremely flexible, polite and reliable. I couldn't think of a better person to watch my fur children.”

“Amy was fantastic! She sent pictures of the cats and updated me regularly on them. Absolutely would recommend her for pet sitting and will book her again on my next trip. Nothing is better than having peace of mind that my pets are cared for when I'm out of town.”
“Kayleigh was absolutely amazing to work with! She was timely, attentive & communicative. We were so at ease with her staying at our home with our pups while we were out of town. She shared daily photos and updates & was always quick to respond to any messages. She was so respectful of our home and took care of sheets, dishes and more before leaving! You could also tell the dogs were very comfortable and cuddly with her which speaks volumes. I will definitely be using Kayleigh again! We can’t thank her enough.”

“Our review is based on our meet and greet with Michelle. Because of an unforeseen personal situation, we were not able to move forward with this booking. We believe Michelle would be a fabulous sitter and hope she will be given that opportunity.”

“Madelyn came to our home to care for our new puppy while we were out of town. We've never had an in-home sitter and can't say enough positive comments about Madelyn and this experience! She was exceptionally communicative throughout the weekend with numerous updates and pictures. Madelyn clearly has a love of animals that shows in her care and interactions. We highly recommend Madelyn to help you care for your pets when you're away! She will definitely be the first one we contact if we are in need of an in-home pet sitter again!”

“This was my second time using Luis' services and he did not disappoint! My dogs love him (and they are very picky pups) and he does a fantastic job with them! He's my go-to and gives me incredible security knowing my dogs are in good hands when I travel! Thank you, Luis!”


“Cheyenne went above and beyond to show kindness to our new dog. She was patient, calm, and made a genuine effort to connect despite our dog’s fearful (and loud) nature. I can’t recommend her highly enough for you and your pets.”

Amy was fantastic with our pups. When we got home we could tell they were well cared for and the house was clean too! She stayed with them the whole time and kept them on their regular routine. This set our mind at ease since our last three sitters we chose were barely with our pups and had them in their crates for 12-14 hours at a time every day we were gone. Amy is a Godsend and we hope she is available anytime we need to leave town moving forward!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Marilee on Rover is $32.19 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 2,700 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marilee. 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 Marilee 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 Marilee 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 Marilee 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 Marilee. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
