“Lauren was a pleasure. I have two cats and she was comfortable around them. Lauren is friendly and handled the care of my cats exactly like I asked. She was timely and sent pictures. She asked questions so she was clear in what I needed and she made sure everything was tidy when her cat sitting came to a close. I recommend her and will use her next time. Thank you Lauren.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me! From walks and playtime to cuddles, feeding routines, and making sure they feel safe and loved, I’m comfortable with all the little things that make a dog happy. I’ve also had a cat for about four to five years now, so I understand the different personalities and needs that come with caring for pets. I’m attentive, reliable, and the kind of person who will probably take way too many photos of your pet while you’re away(yes I am happy to send them and keep you updated:)). My goal is to make sure your fur baby feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re gone! I joined Rover recently because I work from home and have extra time on my hands throughout the week to dedicate to your pet. I am flexible and am happy to drop in and or walk your furry friend/s. I live in an apartment, so I ensure that I lead an active lifestyle whether I'm working remotely, running, checking out new places with friends, or in the gym. I'm looking to add pet care onto my list once again. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I respect your privacy and follow your instructions whether it's feeding, walks, play, meds, bedtime routine aka whatever your pet needs to feel happy and secure. I try to keep everything as normal as possible so they feel right at home even when you're away! And finally, I am responsible! I make sure to follow all instructions with receipts! :) (meaning if I'm scheduled to give meds at specific time/ add vitamins or take a walk, I will give photo updates as well)
“Ethan and Mariia were amazing taking care of my dog with separation anxiety. They kept me updated with photos and activities of what them and my dog did that day. They were very responsive and asked a lot of questions for taking care of my dog. Will definitely book again!”

About: I have had pets of my own, they were my besties. These days, I get my fill delighting in other people's pet(s). In addition to having my own animals over the years, I've cared for a multitude of pets, including dogs, cats, fishes, turtles, horses, rabbits, and more. I find that pets have such a unique and similar personalities. Some interesting quirks and characteristics have made a lasting impression. I have experience with big and small dogs, young and senior dogs, walking, running, adventuring with dogs both on and off leash, administering medications and supplements, maintaining routines, and providing companionship and attentive care. I'm gentle, observant, and sensitive to each animal's individual needs and comfort level. I enjoy nature and animal in general, and appreciate quiet, peaceful, sanctuary-like homes and tend to be very respectful of both the animals and the spaces entrusted to me. I pay attention to safety, so owner’s can be at ease and have a peace of mind. It’s nice when I am able to get into a rhythm and established semblance of steady routine of feeding, quality time, affection, exercise, sleep, relaxation, and companionship with the animals. I'm gentle, observant, and sensitive to each animal's individual needs and comfort level.I pay attention to safety, so owner’s can be at ease and have a peace of mind.

“Gage was the perfect match for our new puppy Ash. He was punctual, knowledgeable and very comfortable with Ash. We’re lucky to have found him and will definitely continue to use his services. Thank you ? Ash is looking forward to seeing you again soon.”


“Megan was amazing with our beagle. She was communicative, respectful and sent tons of photos and updates! She responded to our beagle’s needs (shy, needs outdoor time) and our dog was so happy under her care. Highly recommend this sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years including dogs of all ages and sizes. I also live near lots of parks which has allowed me to explore and have tons of fun with our furry friends! I am more flexible on weekends and can get to various parts of the city/Marin but can work with weekdays too. Definitely message me and we can discuss! I make sure to let the dog take its time in introducing its home to me and will be very careful and respectful in their home.
“After a last-minute cancellation, I turned to Rover and found Krystal. She was incredibly accommodating on short notice, taking great care of my three noisy Chihuahuas while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and reassured me that they were doing well. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to Rover & Krystal in the future.”

About: I have been involved in the loving care of animals since I was a child. My passion for animals developed 25 years ago. I have been casually helping friends with pets for well beyond twenty years and no harm has ever come to them, nor, have they been lost. I volunteer with shelters and animal causes in my spare time. I own my home with a fenced in yard. I rarely watch more than one or two animals at a time. I do not smoke or drink, am bondable and am fully insured. I offer your pet(s) a genuine, loving experience with recreational and fun activities.. If I have more then one dog I do separate them while eating in case they like to resource guard .. .. If your animal has separation anxiety please let me know because my goal is to have them have a wonderful time with me… If they are a obsessive barker please share this with me because i live in a town house and dont want to disturb my neighbors.... I would like to be aware of this so I can accommodate their needs … Your dog also must be POTTY TRAINED as well... …Other then that I will send them home a happy and tired dog . I have a flexible schedule that is adaptable to your needs as well as that of your pet. I work for myself and set my own hours so I’m very flexible. I have a fenced in yard that is secure. I NEVER leave animals unattended. I have many toys to play with and bond very quickly with animals. The owner and myself can create a activity plan that surrounds the pet’s individual needs and wants. I have countless years of providing medication and care to animals and can recognize problems before they become bigger issues.

About: I have done about 50+ petsits including 3 farm sits (MY FAVOURITE!) I love hiking, long walks and snuggling at home with the fur babies. I was outside of the US and have met clients outside of the app while traveling, that is why my reviews here are not recent. I can offer recent references from the past few months from my pet sitting clients. ❤️ I am still available to book here. I call the animals I take care of "my babies." I can run outside with the dogs 3 hours per day. I am a homebody and work online, so for me it's heaven to be inside the home with beautiful pets. That is actually my idea of a dreamy day. I would be a great sitter for an animal who wants lots of company or who isn't used to being alone. I can be out less than 2 hours per day if requested. I also respect the space and preferences of animals. I think about making them happy first, not them making me happy. I love long walks and making sure Dogs who need to run off leash, do so. I also love playing games like tug of war and fetch. I'm able to spend several hours per day to play with and excercise the Dogs. I research about each breed before I accept the sit and I now have experience with different breeds. I send photos and videos every day. You may have to tell me when you think it's too much. I filled up a lot of my memory on my phone and solid state drive with the pets I've taken care of, but I can't delete the photos. It's like deleting photos of your kids. Not possible. Excited to hear from you. I sure have enjoyed the love of pets and I hope to be able to continue enjoying caring for pets. Amazingly. I work better when there are pets around. I already prefer to be home. I'm the type of person that reminds myself to go out of the house and be among people. The one thing I am good at is taking walks every day, so that habit also works well when I'm taking care of Dogs who like walks. I could walk a Dog more than their used to even, if the owners thinks it will make them happy. I am used to preparing special foods for Dogs and Cats, being sure animals don't escape. I would say I go into Mommy mode once I'm with the animals. When there are more than two pets in the house, if I snuggle with one, I will then go to snuggle and give attention to the other one. If the other animal loves playing fetch, I may snuggle the animal, then play fetch after. I don't play loud music around the animals. Although I also don't like loud music when I'm alone .
About: Hi, I’m Amelia- a USF graduate and lifelong animal lover.

Whether it’s dogs, cats, fish or small animals, I’ll make sure every pet in your household feels safe, loved, and well cared for!

I treat your pets with love, and always make sure they’re having fun. For boarding or home stays, I play with them using their favorite toys, and take them on their appropriate walks or favorite activities. I make sure to exercise dogs before leaving the house, especially if it’s over a few hours. Additionally, if your dog has high energy, I am a runner and love to go on runs with them!

“I can’t recommend Hannah enough! So incredibly kind and professional. She was so accommodating of my schedule and did a fantastic job looking over my little guy. She’s a no brainer!!”

About: Dogs are like us in a way. They appreciate good company. I love to hike on weekends. If your dog likes the beach, we can go there too. Some dogs lean into a slower pace and short walks. I’m here for all of it. The important thing is that your pet is happy. My experience ranges from 15 to 90 lb. breeds of all ages. I’m excited to meet you and yours. Dogs were always a part of my family as a child. My pet sitting experience ranges from 15 to 90 lb. breeds of all ages. I've helped owners with crate training and acclimating young pets to voice recall. I’ve also helped support owners with senior dogs find creative ways to brighten their pup’s day to day lifestyle. Please say hello and let me know how I can help. I'm fortunate to work from home. Your dog and I get more time to enjoy each other's company. It also makes it easier for us to spend more time outdoors and less time commuting. I love to hike on weekends and bring a dog with me. If your dog likes the beach, we can go there too. I'll even make fresh dog-friendly food for your pet with your approval. I’m excited to meet you and yours.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Marin City
Megan is great with my shy kitties. They've warmed up to her after only 2 bookings. She even found and cleaned up the places where one of the cats threw up. I didn't think to mention where the cleaning supplies were. She also suggested something to give cats help with hairballs. She clearly knows and cares about cats. For the reports, she always takes lots of photos and lets you know how your cats are doing. I feel confident my cats are well taken care of when Megan is cat sitting.

We’re very happy with the care Anjali provided for our kitties while we were away. She was responsible, reliable, and very loving with them. She sent us regular updates and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. At one point, I reached out to her because I needed her to check something specific with their litter box and automatic feeder, and she responded right away and took care of it. Communication was great throughout, and we felt very comfortable knowing our kitties were in good hands. We would definitely recommend her!

Genna was amazing! She took great care of my cat Nutella. She brushed her, played with her, fed her and gave her lots of love. She offered to meet before and noted down everything on Nutella routine. Also a bird got into the apartment and Nutella killed it, and Genna took care of everything, even vacuumed. Genna was amazing, I highly recommend her

Linda was able to watch out dog Zoe for 8 days over the holiday. We had another rover cancel and were thrilled to find Linda. She stopped in twice a day to feed, walk and entertain our dog. We loved getting the daily pictures and knew our dog was in good hands.

We absolutely loved having Rachel look after our cats. She went above and beyond for our boys, even buying litter and new toys for them, and was incredibly attentive to their needs the whole time. We got thoughtful updates, and it was clear they were very comfortable with her. We came home to happy, relaxed cats and a clean space. We’d 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter. 🐾💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Marin City is $32 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $39 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 10,517 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Marin City. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marin City. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
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.
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.
