“Chelsea was absolutely amazing with our two pups she has a nice size yard with fence! And was right down the street from us which was extremely convenient. I’m not use to leaving my dogs with a sitter, they usually travel with us! But Chelsea made sure to keep me updated on how they’re doing during the whole trip! Highly recommend her!! :)”
“Holly was so great with my dog, she is very friendly, and I could tell right away she has such a big heart and loves animals ! She sent lots of photos and took him on lots of walks. (:”
“Morgan & Heather took great care of our dog, Sunny! It was a last minute booking, so we were very appreciative of their responsiveness and care. Sunny had a great time with their family. Highly recommend!”
“Great family! Kiki loved playing with Jamie’s young children. She got lots of exercise and fun! Jamie kept me updated with photos and texted so I knew what was happening. Can’t wait for Kiki to get to come visit again!”
“Kirsten was able to care for my dog Remi for a last minute trip out of town. She was communicative, warm, and provided helpful updates throughout my time away. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats and have happily helped friends and family care for their pets for decades. I have housed friends’ pets, taken neighbor’s/friend’/family’s dogs for walks and hikes and even on camping trips and frequently stop in to check on pets and offer affection and quick care. I genuinely adore time with animals, and want all pets to have the best quality of life. I would love to help provide that for your beloved pets. I’m currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I am available for boarding, as well as daily car, walks or check-ins. Availability may vary, depending on the day of the week that care is needed. I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs to keep your dog company. I also have a cat, but I can keep any pets separate or crate your dog if needed. Our home has plenty of space for exploring and lounging and central air for hot summer days. I can stay at your place with your pet, if that is a preferable option. I am flexible throughout the week for day care and to take your pet on walks or other outdoor adventures that you are comfortable with.
“Evette was so wonderful. Our little dog was spoiled and loved how much she knows about dogs. She sent multiple pictures a day and so quick to respond. Beyond grateful for her and her opening her home to Roo. Thank you so much!”
“We had a great experience with Meredith. The communication was great, which made everything run smoothly. We enjoyed getting picture updates of what Fi-fi was up to and were confident the entire time that she was happy and in good hands.”
“Grace was quick to reply and took good care of my 5 month old puppy. She has a very friendly golden retriever and two young girls so I know my Ringo enjoyed his stay. I’ll be using her in the future.”
“Tatiana was so fantastic! Fitz loved his time here and seemed so happy in all the photos shared. I am so grateful for her & Nala staying with Fitz while I was away!”
“Jake and Jordan were fantastic with Chloe who thoroughly enjoyed her time and particularly her active lifestyle under their care. We also greatly appreciated their consistent communication about Chloe and her daily activities - including the many hikes and fun play with Lambeau.”
“Our pup seemed happy as could be when we picked her up. Jean and Sam were quick to respond on a short notice request and made everything very easy for us. Thank you!”
“Lauren and her family are great, she sent me constant updates about my service dog brownie and how she got to be an actual puppy playing around and enjoying herself while my wife was in the hospital. They were super acomaditing with the very last minute request to take her given the circumstances. Highly recommend and will definitely request her again if my wife and I are ever this way again”
“Adam was great with our dog Scout. She can be a little shy and has a few quirks but they were great at being patient with her and going at her pace. By the end of her stay when we picked her up she was clearly very happy and comfortable! Would definitely book with them again.”
“Joshua was able to help us out in a pinch while on vacation and watched our dog for 3 nights within several hours of us messaging him. He had calm energy and our very anxious dog went right to him. He sent updates with pictures daily and was responsive to my messages.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was around 15 years old. I personally do not have one but I love spending time with my family and friends dogs. They give me so much joy and happiness. I have experience watching dogs at my house or my family/ friends house. Love to go on walk and adventures but also staying in and having a movie night cuddled up with the pup on the couch. I’m currently on my off season as I am a snowboard instructor at park city mountain! I’d love to spend my free time hanging out with your pets and giving them the best play date :) I currently live in an apartment complex so I would keep your dog on leash every time we go for a walk. I do not have a personal dog so there is no worry. I make sure the dog always has their water bowl filled and like to take the dog either outside or for a walk every few hours. They are allowed on the furniture
About: I worked as a nanny for over 10 years which included pet care. Anything from daily walks and feeding to overnight extended care. I love the chance to make new furry friends and share my favorite walks. I work remotely so have full flexibility to work when I want and when is best for your furry fmaily members. I find caregiving to be a win win. I make a new friend and have someone to go on walks with and pets get the love and attention they need. The health and safety of your pet is number one for me. I have a large area in my home where animals can relax with sunlight, houseplants, and water. For care in your home, I’m happy to follow whatever protocols you have established. Nothing is too niche, trust me. My childhood dog wouldn't eat his dinner unless I 'sprinkled special flavour powder' (I just mimed grabbing something from the cupboard) over his food. It's important to me that you and your loved one's routine is maintained as much as possible.
“Sophie had the perfect sitter! She was around adults and kids the entire time. Sophie loved that Crystal has no pets. Home and yard are awesome! As far as I can tell Sophie is in fine condition and happy to be home am I. I will definitely use Crystal again if she will have us. Thank you Crystal and your family.”

I work from home and your pup will receive one on one attention. I work from home. I treat your furry family member like my own, meaning plenty of belly rubs, playtime, nap time and short safe walks.

Chelsea was great! We had a very last minute request and she was super prompt in getting back to us to take our pup for the evening. Our first time using rover so as expected he was a little whinny when we left him but she was kind in trying to make him comfortable and he ended up loving snuggles with her hubby and was happy for the rest evening. Thank you!!

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.
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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 UT 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.
