Matthew was very responsive and thorough. He watched my three cats for a couple days and did a great job refreshing their area and keeping an eye on them. He even watered my Christmas tree while we were away! I would definitely recommend him and use his services again :).

Heather was such a great pup sitter! We had a last minute situation come up and she was so responsive and helpful in agreeing to do a drop in visit for my two dogs. Will definitely use her services again if the need arises.

Andrea is truly a gem. While we were away on vacation, she stepped in to care for our beloved cats, Scooter and Miss Girl, and her dedication went far beyond our expectations. It was almost as if I were home myself her attention to detail, warmth, and understanding of their personalities mirrored the way I care for them every day. Andrea didn’t just check in she connected with them. She made sure Scooter felt safe and soothed, and gave Miss Girl the affection and routine she thrives on. I came home to two happy, relaxed cats who clearly felt loved and secure in my absence. Andrea’s care was thoughtful, intuitive, and deeply personal. As long as she’s offering her services, I will choose her every single time. She’s that good and my cats agree.

About: I have had many different animals my entire life including cats, ferrets, chinchillas, chickens, ducks, hamsters, rabbits… In my 20’s I founded “Not Just Pets, Professional Pet Care”. In my 30’s I founded “Equine Specialist, Care and Training”. I had horses for over 30 years. I trained, showed, pleasure road, belonged to 3 horse clubs and eventually started my own 4-H club. I have bred and trained Boston Terriers and German Shepherds. Currently, I have 4 dogs that I rescued from a SC kill shelter. I have worked with Aly from Coal Mountain and Karen from Arcadia Animal Rescue’s. Both have been amazed by how well adjusted the four dogs have become considering how terrified they were in which no one else would take a chance on. Animals are my passion and greatest friends! I am currently taking an online course to become a Certified Canine Massage Therapist. I work for myself taking care of Seniors and animals. Relocated 04.07.2025 from Maine. I make my own schedule and am flexible to care for your furry family! Every situation can be different. Meeting with the client and their animals is important. I like to know about any vices, medications, vet info, where supplies are at, etc. Taking notes and leaving daily notes for each client keeps communication open and I find is appreciated.

Valerie went out of her way to befriend our shy dog and took extra time with him so he would feel comfortable. She sent us texts and photos to let us know how he was doing. I will definitely book with her again when we need a sitter.

Rachel was a great pet sitter for our kitty, Bandit!! Rachel was very responsive and communicative which made her meeting Bandit, going over Bandit's care, and getting keys, etc., all easy and seamless! It is clear she loves and understands pets very well. We were away for over 2 weeks and Rachel came for daily visits during that time - she sent photos and updates each day and it was clear that Bandit was very happy and well cared for. Upon our return everything was is good order and Bandit greeted us with a kitty "smile"! We highly recommend Rachel, and hope to have her care for Bandit when we next need kitty care!

I truly don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful our experience with Alex was. We were on vacation with our fur baby, and from our initial meet-and-greet to the thoughtful picture updates he sent during his visit, everything exceeded expectations. He even went out of his way to come to our cabin and walk her while we were out exploring. If you’re looking for someone in the Asheville, NC area, I highly recommend him!

Jade was amazing with my kitty, Sylvia! She’s a typical orange cat with all the classic orange-cat energy, and Jade handled her so well. Jade even came by the day before my trip to get familiar with everything and to meet my puppy, Sadie, which I really appreciated. Sadie went to daycare while I was away, but after meeting Jade, I would have zero hesitation leaving her in Jade’s care, too. It’s such a relief to have a reliable, trustworthy cat sitter and dog walker nearby. Highly recommend!

Tyanna was amazing! She met me and my dog Kaji beforehand which I very much appreciated. She updated me with many photos and videos of Kaji without me asking for them, which was also a bonus. She has been so kind, understanding, communicative, and trustworthy I would highly recommend her to anybody who wants their beloved pets to be taken care of. She will be the first Rover person I will contact moving forward!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom always had at least three dogs in the house along with a few cats, and I would regularly take care of them whenever she was away. Currently, she has four dogs, a miniature horse, and chickens, so I’m very familiar with a wide range of animals and their needs. I’ve also taken in pets from family members who were unable to care for them due to moves or life changes, which has given me even more hands on experience. I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, and I’m open to looking after other kinds of animals as well. I truly love animals and treat them with a lot of care and respect…I won’t even kill a spider, if that gives you a sense of how I am with them. I work mostly remote and do some overnight caregiving on the side. I will have a lot of time between October and mid April as I will not be caregiving in those months! I wish to care for animals at my clients home. So whatever they instruct me to do! I love hiking so I would love to take your dogs on adventures if it is allowed!

About: I’ve had the joy of caring for four dogs and three cats over the years, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with pets of different personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddles, I treat every pet like my own. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and providing a loving environment to keep pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m a full-time community college student and work part-time, but I always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Their well-being is my priority, and I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, and care while you’re away! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by providing attentive care, following their routine, and ensuring they feel secure and loved. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a clean, stress-free environment, give them plenty of attention, and respect any special needs or preferences. Their well-being is my top priority!

About: (Please call me Seriph, thank you 🙏) I’ve taken care of pets since I was 8 when we got a dog and it was my responsibility to fed and take outside. I’ve had several successful pet sits with senior dog and cat separately I work from home so I would be able to care for your pets as much as needed. Any potty breaks or care needed I’m available for. I would take excellent care of your home for a pet sit. I’ve had great pet sits before where I’ve left the home better than I found it

It was such a relief to have someone we trusted taking care of our kitties while we were out of town and we absolutely would book visits with Summer again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boys!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Marion on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 831 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Marion. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Marion stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Marion. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
