About: • Specialized Senior Pet Care – Gentle handling, mobility support, medication administration, and extra patience for slower-paced walks or special routines. • Health & Comfort Focused – Attentive to changes in mood, appetite, or mobility, with prompt updates if something seems off. • Customized Care – From joint-friendly play to warming up meals, I tailor every visit to your pet’s needs. • Reliable & Communicative – Daily updates with photos and videos so you feel connected and reassured. • Compassionate & Calm – I take my time, ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and never rushed. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication times. Consistency is key, so I make sure my visits are always on time and unrushed—your pet gets my full attention every time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and their animals with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow the pet’s regular routines—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure fresh water is always available, litter boxes are cleaned, and living areas are tidy. If medications are needed, I administer them exactly as directed. I also spend quality time giving affection and companionship, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Before leaving, I ensure the home is secure, lights and doors are as you prefer, and you receive an update with photos so you know everything is safe and well.

About: I've grown up with and taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old, having experience with medium and extra-large breeds specifically. I pride myself in knowing breed-specific information to best support the engagement and well-being of your dogs! I've loved cats since I was little, and have taken care of them in my teen and adult years. I have experience with cleaning, playing, and administering medication to them! I've always had a special place in my heart for rabbits, and have taken care of my own. I also volunteered at a rabbit rescue for 2 years, where I spent time cleaning cages to specifications based on each rabbit, along with grooming and playing with them! As a fun bonus, I have a good quality phone camera and will take cute photos for you (and me)! I'm currently working Full-Time from Wednesday - Sunday so I have the most time to devote to your pets on Mondays and Tuesdays! I get out of work no later than 7:00 PM and start no earlier than 10:30 AM. I have a large car if you'd like them driven to a dog park, hiking trail, etc. (if it's not within walking distance), and I have a lot of energy if they're a long walker, runner, etc.! On days that I'm off/time that I'm home, I am acutely aware of where animals are and what they're up to. I'm quick to action, and love to cuddle and play! I am a quiet and respectful person, and if I'm staying in your home/apartment/residence, I make sure to clean up after myself thoroughly! I can happily accommodate using your choice of cleaning supplies, fragrances/non-fragrances, etc.; of course including clean up relating to your pets!

About: Aside from growing up caring for animals, I’ve worked at a dog daycare for about a year. During my time there I learned a lot about dog behavior and how to read their body language. Now, I am currently studying canine training and management at SUNY Cobleskill where I work with a variety of canine’s daily. So I am currently on summer break from school, so I can assure you I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I start my day off by making sure my babies are fed and have fresh water, followed by going out for a walk and playing outside for a little! I have a dog and a cat who is very shy. If needed I have a crate that can be used.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I rescued my first dog from the local humane society when I was 11, and that experience started a lifelong passion for caring for animals. Before becoming a nurse, I worked as a veterinary assistant for two local animal hospitals where I gained valuable hands-on experience with animal care and handling. I developed skills in basic training, puppy socialization, reading animal body language, medication administration, subcutaneous fluids, nail trimming, grooming, and bathing. I also volunteered for several years with a local dog rescue as a foster, helping provide temporary homes, structure, and love for dogs before their adoptions. Many needed socialization, basic training, and a calm environment to help them thrive. I later served as the rescue’s foster and event coordinator until 2020. Today I share my home with three of my own beloved dogs. One of our previous dogs had epilepsy and required frequent monitoring and medication, which gave me additional experience caring for pets with medical needs. In my free time I enjoy traveling, camping, hiking with my dogs, training with our Belgian Malinois, and watching my daughter ride her horse. Caring for animals has always been a true passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a nurse who works three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several days off to dedicate to caring for animals. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is fairly flexible on my days off, and I’m happy to work with you to meet your pet’s individual needs and routine. Please check my calendar for availability and feel free to reach out with any specific requests. I will always do my best to accommodate and treat your animals with the same care and attention I would give my own. At this time, I’m unable to host dogs in my home, but I’m happy to care for them in the place they feel most comfortable—your home. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and extended daytime care depending on your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care in a calm and compassionate environment, treating your pets with the same attention and kindness I would give my own.

About: I have always had animals in my house ranging from reptiles to kittens. Currently I have three dogs and two cats. Growing up with animals has taught me how to care for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. Along with caring for my own animals I regularly sit for family and friends. I also have worked in a pet store where I learned how to care for puppies and kittens properly in a wide range of breeds. Between caring for their health needs to how to properly groom certain breeds. I am excited to help with your pets needs! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine well. I work a flexible job remotely that allows me to step away from my computer as needed allowing me to care for your animals when needed! I will care for your pets with all the love and attention to detail. I have worked with dogs that are high energy and need long walks to older animals that simply need someone to hang out with. I will pay close attention to your details about how to care for your animal and also what your animal needs at the time.

About: Hi! I'm James, I have worked at an animal hospital for over a year and have experience walking, feeding, handling, and taking care of dogs, cats, and other animals. I'm also trained to handle various exotic pets. I also have over 2 years of experience as a dog walker. I would love to be able to fit pet care into my weekly routine after class, on weekends, and pretty much whenever I have the time. I have the most experience caring for exotic and small pets, and know how to engage with them, handle them, feed and care for them. I also have experience caring for dogs and cats and am able to notice unusual behavior and can alert the owner or potentially a veterinarian about it if need be. When I pet-sit I usually walk, feed, and spend time engaging and playing with the animal to make sure they don't miss out on exercise or socialization.

“I cannot recommend Victoria enough! She was so wonderful with my cat. My cat is usually very shy around people she doesn't know so I was shocked to see pictures that Victoria sent me of her petting my cat or sitting with her! She clearly has the magic touch. She also dealt with her own emergency one day and still found a way to do a check in. I am so appreciative and will definitely use Victoria again!”

About: Hey there! My name is Angie! I’ve taken care of dogs for 7 years. I have a Standard F1B goldendoodle who is 4 years old, a Mini F1BB goldendoodle who is 3 years old and a Newfoundland who is 8 months old! I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I’m currently a nanny for a 2 year old baby. My schedule varies weekly so i do have alot of time on my hands throughout the week. I am available almost every weekend as well! I prefer sitting at clients home, with that being said i will be attentive outside and inside. I will make sure dogs are safe outside whether there’s a fence or just making sure they are safe and away from the road. I also would make sure they will not wonder off, attentive is my #1 priority. Making sure their safe in their home and not being mischievous is also a big priority for me and your furry babies!

About: I have always had a special connection with dogs. I grew up with dogs and treated them like part of the family. I have been primarily working as a pet nanny for 5 years for someone who traveled to Europe on a monthly basis. They are staying in Europe indefinitely so I am looking to add some new clients. I can offer your dogs fun playtime and a sense of stability by caring for them in their own environment. I am also available for walks and drop in visits. I send pictures and updates daily. Your best friend will be spoiled and pampered with me. I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of availability as this is my main job. I can also do long term sitting up to 6 weeks if necessary. I am responsible and professional and respectful in your home. Besides caring for your pets, I am happy to pick up mail and water plants.

About: Hi! I am a concierge pet sitter offering a very unique, high-touch service to clients from the Metro New York City to Montreal! Unlike other Rover providers, I have been operating for over 20 years all over the world - I was actually one of the early sitters on Rover! I also have shelter, reactive, and anxious pet training and experience. If you are seeking a mature, proactive, and attentive carer for your home and your loved ones, you've found a good one. Most of my client experience and reviews (which extend far beyond Rover) are that I provide peace of mind while they are away. You won't find another service like this. Because of this, you'll find a slightly different pricing structure,* which is explained in your complimentary introductory meeting and provides maximum flexibility for you and care for your creatures! Come see what everyone has been raving about. *Rover fees are added on to the price of booking. One of the many things that set me apart is the amount of time and quality of care your pets will get with me. They will be sick of me already by the time you get home! Your pets will get an experience! Active, safe play will be initiated, behavioral enforcement you're working on will be continued, and, oh yeah... free cuddles all day!

I’m currently only working part time so they’ll be plenty of time for potty breaks and some fetch! I love to make pet friendly treats for all my furry guest! I try my best to ask my client what their normal day routine is with their pet and I try my best to stick with it. It helps a lot of the furry babies feel comfortable knowing I know all the silly details that can be a big deal for them.

Very good. Kasey came , did exactly what I needed her to do and got the job done. With an elderly dog at home it’s not always an easy road anymore; it’s a difficult situation to handle at times. Glad I could count on her.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Marlboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Marlboro is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,530 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Marlboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Marlboro 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 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Marlboro with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marlboro. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.
