“Jen is so welcoming and makes you feel good knowing she'll love your fur baby the same as you do. She even gets up super early with ours bc he's used to our schedule. She's a gem I've used her 2xs now and will continue.”
“I love my puppies more than anything, so naturally I don't trust just anyone to care for them. So I panicked when I had to go to a convention in Las Vegas. That's when a friend recommended Rover. Thankfully, out of the multitude of people on Rover, I found Emily. She, and her husband, have been truly wonderful in every respect. They took excellent care of my puppies, fed them on time, took them on walks, have them plenty of toys and stimulation, and sent amazing pics regularly. I couldn't ask for better people to watch my dogs. I'll certainly be working with them again for my dog watching needs. Thank you very much for everything Emily!”
“Very kind couple who clearly cares about dogs!!! Our dogs seemed to have a great time, they were exhausted when they came home! Love that they had other dogs to play with while there. Nicholas and Emily were very responsive and easy to work with. Would definitely use them again!”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Lindsey and her dogd. He csme home less excitesble due to the smount of plsy time he received. He csme back more trainable because of the more cslm demeaner, and he plays better with other dogs now. Lindsey is s great choice for dog-sitter or, dog-boarder.”
“Monica is just so great with Shiloh and I can tell that Soon is very well taken care of. This was the first time she had an extended stay and every day I received a morning update on how Shiloh was with a cute photo. Shiloh is so excited for her next visit!”
“I would like to take a minute to think Angel Lynn for caring for our two dogs over the weekend on such a short notice. She responded to the request quickly, she is very friendly. Great communication, I appreciate that she kept us updated on how they were doing. This was the first time they have ever been boarded so I was a little worried but she definitely put my mind at ease. She took the time to clean their bowls before we pick them up. She is great!!”
“Maria was outstanding. She treated my dog Gary like he was here own. She sent me updates letting me know of his activities. I would definitely recommend her and I hope to have her watch Gary again soon!”
“Connie, thank you for watching out pup for a week. Your daily updates made it easier being away from him and seeing that he's in a good hands. We will definitely reach out again to have our pup stay with you.”
“Kristin & her family were AWESOME with Gronk! He’s usually very shy with new people and she got him to warm up to her immediately. She also sent numerous updates and photos. Very much worth the $$!”
“Kaitlin was awesome. I needed to leave my dog, Ralph, with her last minute and she was able to watch him for 4 days! She kept me updated on him which was also awesome! Ralph was a very happy bit at her house! Highly recommend!”
“Alexandra took great care of Autzen! Her pictures made me smile (and laugh) and helped me know that our little man was being well taken care of! We’ll definitely schedule more sleepovers for our boy with Alexandra!”
“I cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Amanda. She watched our 2 dogs this week, 2 separate times that we needed to travel overnight. You can tell she genuinely adores every dog she cares for and she is so great about sending updates and pictures. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for peace of mind when they have to be away from their fur babies.”
“Ishlamar was very accommodating and listened to all of our needs for our pup, Sadie. She also was very communicative and sent regular updates with photos throughout the entire weekend. Sadie seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. We would absolutely book with Ishlamar again in the future!”
About: I truly love animals, and I have real hands-on experience that helps me care for pets of all ages and personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and large breeds. In my home town, I cared for Great Danes, so big dogs don’t intimidate me at all I’m confident, calm, and know how to handle them safely. Overall, I’m sweet, patient, and truly dedicated to making every pet feel safe and loved while you’re away. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can give pets my full attention and adjust easily to your needs. I’m available throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, feeding, medication, and extra cuddle time. I love staying active, so taking dogs out for walks and playtime naturally fits into my daily routine. My open availability lets me focus on each pet individually and make sure they’re getting the care, love, and consistency they deserve. In my home, I make sure every pet has a safe, comfortable space. I have dog crates available, a fully fenced yard for outdoor time, and I always supervise pets when they’re outside. I keep a calm, clean environment and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they need. When I care for pets in my client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention to detail. I focus on keeping your pet’s normal routine, giving them affection, play, and structure. I send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing.
“Erich & Bobbi They are wonderful people to work with, they love caring for pets, they treat them as their own pets! Very approachable & trustful ! You will not go wrong choosing them to care for your pet. Our little puppy loved them both !”
“Angela is the absolute best! She was more than willing to meet our babies before their visit and stayed in communication with us the entire time they were with her. She sent videos and pics. We felt so good knowing our fur babies were in such good hands. Thank you Angela. We appreciate the extra care you gave Zeus and Penny while they were in your care❤️You will be the only person we seek out to watch our pups when we leave town from this point on.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marion
We traveled from Pittsburgh to Marion for a family wedding and needed someone to watch our dog Paddington during the ceremony and reception, and Jennifer was wonderful! We got to meet her adorable Bulldog, Diesel, which was a great bonus. Jennifer's communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and sharing photos so we could fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Marion home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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.
