About: I have experience taking care of dogs and grew up with dogs my whole life. I just finished 1 year working at a doggy daycare and absolutely loved it! I have experience taking care of all ages of dogs from puppy’s to seniors! I just moved from Michigan to Texas so i’m still figuring out my schedule but I plan to work with dogs as a side job. I currently care for 2 adorable cats. My roommate and I feed them twice a day and play with them a ton! We actually just recently adopted the second one so we’re working on getting the cats used to eachother still and introducing them the right way!
“Hannah was absolutely amazing this weekend with Arlo and Irie! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure both pups were comfortable and happy. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Arlo and Irie both looked so well cared for when we returned—it was clear they got plenty of attention, love, and exercise. Hannah went above and beyond, and we truly appreciated her attentiveness and kindness. We would 100% book with Hannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets. Thank you again, Hannah! 🐾💛”

“This is the 2nd time Tim has taken care of our pups & I can not say enough about him! For years our family has not taken any trips all together because of worrying about our pets. At least one of us would have to stay back with them. Now that we’ve found someone that we can trust we can FINALLY all go together as a whole family! I am so grateful to Tim & the memories I’ve been able to make with my grandchildren! Tim is so kind & patient with our emotionally high maintenance dogs. In the past, no one could even get our bulldog to come out of his crate if we weren’t here & our rescue pup is terrified of everyone outside of our family but in a short period of time Tim had completely won them over. They absolutely love him! Tim is professional, reliable & excellent at giving updates with photos. I really appreciate him & everything that he does for our family! I will definitely be asking him for his help again in the future!”

“Leandra was a great cat sitter! Completed multiple drop in visits while I was out of town. Took very good care of my cat. Very communicative, punctual, and accommodating to my cat and residence needs. Would highly recommend Leandra, and will definitely be reaching out for Leandras assistance in the future when needed.”
About: Hi, I’m Soraya! My boyfriend Alex and I are lifelong animal lovers who truly enjoy caring for pets and getting to know their unique personalities. We treat every pet we care for as if they were our own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’ve always had a passion for animals. In high school, I was involved in FFA and took Veterinary Science classes, where I gained hands-on experience learning about animal care. I’ve also worked in a veterinary environment assisting veterinary technicians in the back, as well as working at a boarding facility. These experiences have given me the opportunity to care for and interact with many different types of animals and personalities. My boyfriend has been by my side throughout my pet-care journey and has joined me for our previous Rover and boarding experiences. He absolutely loves spending time with both dogs and cats and is just as caring, attentive, and affectionate with the pets we care for. Together, we make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship. We understand that every pet is different. Some are energetic and playful, while others are shy, nervous, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable. We take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so we can provide the best care possible. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, overnight care, feeding, playtime, or simply a loving companion while you’re away, we would love to help! We prioritize following your care instructions, maintaining your pet’s routine, and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. We genuinely love animals and feel incredibly lucky to be able to care for them. We would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become your trusted pet-care team! 💕🐾 With pet care in need my schedule works around your schedule! I’m pretty open and flexible and can make last minute changes if possible. I’m a veteran currently working on certificates from home. When it comes to your pet they will be safely taken care of in your home. They will have all the attention while we are there and every home is left how we entered.
“Kristen was referred to me by another Rover dog walker and she was as awesome! She took great care of the dogs with pictures and even sent pics of our cats!! Would highly recommend ?”
About: I’ve cared for dogs in every stage of life, from a 6-year-old rescue to puppies I raised and trained myself. My dogs are housebroken and crate trained, and I’m comfortable reinforcing structure and routines. I’ve also provided overnight care for large dogs with specific medication needs and frequent walk schedules, so I understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. I’m patient, calm, and respectful of each dog’s personality. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m flexible and able to plan my day around scheduled walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m organized and punctual, so I make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for on time, especially when they’re used to a consistent routine. Since I provide care in my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, crate use, and household rules. For walks and drop-ins, I prioritize leash safety, secure doors and gates, and make sure pets have fresh water and a calm environment before I leave. During overnight stays, I maintain their normal routine to reduce stress and keep them feeling safe while their owner is away.
About: I offer reliable, in-home pet sitting services designed to keep your pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free while you’re away. Services include feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and lots of attention and care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide updates for your peace of mind. I have 2 dogs of my own. Because I work part-time, I’m able to be very present and attentive if your fur baby stays with me. Availability is limited, so advance booking is recommended. I have a large, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. For pets that are primarily indoor dogs, please provide their kennel for overnight sleeping. Dogs will also have access to a doggie door leading to the backyard.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their fur babies! I am available all evenings/night! Full time Tuesday Wednesday and Saturdays! Needless to say, I can be flexible and do my best to help those who need it! New home with a fenced in backyard! A must to keep the fur babies safe!

About: I have 5 years experience in the veterinarian field. I currently work at Herbst Vet clinic in Boerne,Tx. I take care of dogs everyday at work and I will always ensure that your fur baby’s safety is first. I am available to sit your fur baby’s on weekends and holidays. I work and go to school so my availability will begin on Fridays throughout the weekend, I am available Tuesday’s and Thursday as well! I have worked with all kinds of cats and dogs with my veterinary experience so I can accommodate to any special needs your pet may have.
About: I grew up on a farm caring for a variety of animals. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own as well as a tortoise and lots of fish! I have experience pet sitting for family and friends and neighbors. I am able to care for babies as well as seniors. I'm not certified but I've trained my own pets along with my family's pets. I am currently a grad student and work part-time, I am available to work all day Monday, mornings before 9am Tuesday-Friday and evenings after 4:30pm. Sometimes my school schedule may change but I'm always going to communicate changes to my schedule! Weekends are available if needed. I have a system with my babies, they eat twice a day in the morning and evening. I usually let them run outback and they play with the dogs on either side of my house. One cat likes to go outside occasionally, but otherwise they stay with me and I'll play with them while I do schoolwork or relax. I love taking my dogs on walks and playing with them as well.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends for years, and it’s truly one of my greatest joys. Whether it’s long walks with an energetic pup, quiet cuddle sessions with a shy cat, or making sure every pet feels safe and loved in my home, I treat every animal like family. My goal is always to give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their companions are happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. Expect a warm, low-key environment where pets are treated like family. Dogs get daily walks, play sessions, and lots of affection; cats enjoy a peaceful home with enrichment and gentle attention. I keep a consistent routine so your pets feel secure, and I’m mindful of any special needs, feeding schedules, or medications. You’ll receive regular photo and text updates, and I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and genuine care. My goal is for your pets to come home happy and for you to return feeling relaxed knowing they were in good hands. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my space they get cozy spots, walks (for dogs), and gentle attention; in your home I stick to their familiar routine and surroundings. I always prioritize their individual needs, keep things clean and calm, and send photo updates throughout the day so you have complete peace of mind.
About: Hi! My name Trinity and I’m 25 years old. I have taken care of a few dogs this past year my best friend’s two dogs, my other’s friend dog for 2 weeks. I would feed the dogs walk the dogs and stay with them. The dogs were so sweet and kind made me want to start spending more time with animals. I also used to watch dogs when I was younger! I am definitely open to meeting in person to see if I’m a good fit before booking! I really do love I’m currently working full-time, but I have three days off in a row! Right now I have some time off of work so I will be more available than usual! When I do work, I get off at 5:30 PM. I like following routine whatever the owner says is a routine for the dog. I will follow it! So whatever is comfortable with the owner is comfortable with me! I currently live in apartment by myself, but I do not have a backyard. I’m on the second floor, but I’m willing to stay at other people’s apartments or houses to help or even to go check check-in!

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.
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 Marion 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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.
