“Daran was awesome. He sent us pictures and videos. It was very clear the boys were comfortable with him. We knew they would be fine because we had already done a meet and greet but the pictures and videos made us more at ease. I would (and have) recommmend Daran to all my friends.”
“So happy to have left our Dog with Deb while away, she reached out to notify me she had a cancelation and could take out dog which really saved us in a pinch!!! Her house and yard were so much better for him than having to board in a typical crate/kennel setting!!! She obviously loves dogs and took great care of our dogs!!! She was flexible with us and we will definitely be using her again!!! Highly recommended!!”
“Thank you so so much!! We couldn’t be happier going with Seonmin!! She was so good to Eggo and Eggo was so well taken care of. She sends picture updates everyday and our dog looks happy and makes himself right at home. Highly recommended!!”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
“Jacquelyn and Bill were great! I could tell they were knowledgeable right when I met them. And they could see that Barry was timid and would need extra attention and they made sure to provide that care. They have a great back yard and I know Barry played a lot because he slept right when he got home. They updated me and sent pictures throughout the whole stay and genuinely cared for our puppy. Would definitely recommend!”
About: We’ve cared for dogs on and off for the past 14 years and have always had a genuine love for animals. We have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and routines. As a couple, we’re able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, feeding, and overnight care. Our goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. We are generally busy during the weekdays, but we have plenty of availability from Friday through Monday. This makes us especially flexible for weekend boarding, extended stays, and overnight care. We’re happy to work around your dog’s normal routine and provide the consistency, attention, and care they’re used to while you’re away. We want every dog staying with us to feel like they’re at a second home. We provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities for walks and relaxation. We will follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, crate routines, sleeping arrangements, and other preferences. We also understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so we’re happy to provide updates and photos throughout their stay
About: I am a lifelong dog lover with hands on foster experience and a deep passion for giving every pup a safe, happy home. Whether I am helping a nervous rescue decompress or welcoming a high-energy playmate into my routine, my background in fostering has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to read a dog's unique body language. Dogs are my absolute world, and I bring that same fierce, nurturing love to every dog I care for. At home, my beloved dog, Molly, shares my passion for making new canine friends and helps keep our space warm and welcoming. Your furry family member will be treated with the exact same devotion, safety, and endless belly rubs that I give to Molly. Thank you:) ! I just started a nursing program that is mostly online, so I am home and ready to keep someone's pup good company! I am flexible, can come to you if needed, and very easy going when it comes to walks and other needs you may have! Welcome to my home, where your dog will find a safe, trustworthy environment built on constant companionship and love. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, your dog will never be left to wander alone; instead, they will have a dedicated sitter to supervise, watch, and play with them every moment they are here. I treat every guest like a member of my own family, ensuring they get plenty of supervised outdoor exercise, interactive playtime, and continuous attention. Trust me, attention won't be a problem. You can rest easy knowing that your dog is in reliable hands, surrounded by people who are fully committed to keeping them happy, engaged, and completely secure.
About: I’ve cared for cats and volunteered in cat rescue for over 20 years. I have always been the person friends, family, and neighbors trust with their pets. I currently volunteer in animal rescue, where I care for and foster kittens, senior cats, and cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health. As a licensed Community Health Worker with over 20 years in healthcare, I bring patience, attention to detail, and reliability to every visit. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, provide enrichment and affection, and keep owners updated with photos and detailed visit reports. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is currently one of my main priorities, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and provide pets with the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends and many holidays. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, medication, playtime, or companionship, I strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I communicate promptly and provide updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Caring for animals is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I have over 20 years of experience in healthcare, am a licensed Massachusetts Community Health Worker, and volunteer and foster with the MSPCA of Cape Cod and It’s All About the Animals, Rochester where I regularly care for and foster cats of all ages, including those requiring medications and special medical care. I understand how important it is to earn your trust, so I carefully follow every instruction regarding feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and household routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensure doors and gates remain secure, and always provide detailed updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Erin took such amazing care of our 2 golden retrievers! They are always nervous when being boarded but Erin listened to my concerns and made sure the dogs were settled in and happy! She met us at the Ferry (so convenient) and then sent photos of them throughout the day. We are so grateful to Erin for taking such great care of our babies!”
About: I love all kinds of pets and am local to cape cod. I am an engineer in Falmouth and would love to watch your pets while you are away. I have had dogs for 15 years and have watched cats for weeks at a time. I work in falmouth so I can come home on lunch breaks and stay full time other than that. I normally walk dogs in the morning before work and on lunch breaks, then take them to the park after work. I will work with pet parents to come up with a plan that works for each pet! I have a big house and a nice big yard. I live near a big field and the beach they can go to as long as its not the high tourist season.

“Tara was so great with our dog! Everyday we got updates and she was always available if we wanted to check in with her in-between. She was super flexible and understanding as our situation had a few changes. Thank you Tara for the amazing service and treating Maddie so well!”
“Kathy treated our Pete like one of her own, we felt very comfortable knowing he was happy and being well taken care of. We will definitely leave Pete with Kathy again, we highly recommend her!”
“Donna watched our Dexter for two weeks. She made us feel so comfortable with pictures and video’s every day! Dexter had such a great time with Donna and her family. We would highly recommend Donna’s services to anyone!”
“Amanda and her family made sure that Mac felt right at home! She provided updates so I knew he was doing well and having fun while I was away. I absolutely recommend Amanda to anyone looking to board their pups! Mac can be anxious but he felt at ease and seemed really excited to be there. Amanda is my new go to sitter and I’m so glad to have found her. ☺️”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
About: I used to work for a doggy daycare for three years and worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am CPR-certified for cats and dogs and I have basic animal first aid knowledge. I have had both cats and dogs most of my life. I am a full-time student, however, I do not have classes every day and am also available on the weekends. I would be more than willing to check in on your pets at whatever interval you are comfortable with. I am a responsible and respectful person who will follow your instructions and wishes regarding your pets. I have had pets with specific requirements and understand having specific instructions for your pets.
“Ben and Natalie took wonderful care of my girl, Denali, for a week while I was away, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience! They were great with communication and sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Denali had the best time and loved getting to play with the other dogs. It was so nice knowing she was happy, safe, and well cared for while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend Ben and Natalie and will definitely have them watch Denali again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marion
Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!
Emily was absolutely incredible watching my dog this weekend. From the moment I dropped him off, she made everything feel easy and stress free. She was warm, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. She kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages that showed how happy and comfortable he was. It meant so much knowing he was in such good hands. He came home relaxed, well cared for, and clearly loved his time with her. If you’re looking for someone truly trustworthy, caring, and reliable, Emily is the one. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Couldn’t recommend her more!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Marion can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Marion home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Marion.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marion. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
You and your Marion sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
