My rescue dog Jack loves Marcy. Everything was taken care of while I was gone. She kept in touch with me and gave me a video od Jack that made me smile. I will definitely call on her again.

We had an excellent experience with Shelley! We would definitely book with her again. She sent us regular updates about our pups, with pictures, and was very easy to communicate with. We felt confident that our pups were happy and loved!

We have three rescued dogs each with their little quirks and they can be a lot of work but a lot of fun. They love Lori. How great is that? All we want is the dogs to be safe and have a good time with their house sitter and with Lori we/they get both. Highly recommend her. She is wonderful and the dogs miss her when she leaves.

Kambree did an outstanding job caring for our four fur babies while we were away. She handled our cranky older diva dog, Clara, our lovable Bernese Mountain dog, Samson, and our two cats, Sasha and Sophie, with incredible care and attention. She sent daily updates, was professional, responsible, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our pets were in great hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for animals, and we couldn't be more pleased. I highly recommend Kambree without hesitation and will absolutely use her services again!

The pets and house were well tended to. Our dog was really happy to see us and had the zoomies for about an hour. The cats are cats and didn't seem to care too much that we were home. We would love to have her watch our pets and house again in the future.

About: I am American Red Cross certified for Cat and Dog First Aid. I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for a little over 10 years, though have grown up with pets in the house for my entire life. I have experience with pets little and big, young and old, as well as a range of personalities and energy levels. I have provided care to dogs belonging to family, friends, neighbors, and even teachers and I have loved each pet as if it were my own. I have experience administering different medications including allergy meds, pills, and joint supplements. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I am available for walks during the day as well as overnight stays. I do not offer pet care in my home, while I do have pets of my own they do not do well with new animals so in interest of keeping both my pets and yours happy and safe I only offer services through the client’s home. The care I provide for pets inside of the client’s home will be a combination of the instructions provided by the client so that I can provide the pets with their unique routines and my unconditional love and respect for their boundaries and needs. I love taking pets on walks, easing their stress, giving them lots of belly rubs, and making sure they eat all of their food and drink plenty of water!

Randy was phenomenal!! He is so easy to work with; shows some never love to both my female dogs. Randy sent me pics from his rides in the car with them as well as walks in the park. He even walked them twice a day! From the moment my girls met him there was an instant connection. I ev n came home to a spotless home; I kno he vacuumed and suffered the kitchen floors because he asked me where the cleaning supplies were! I cannot say enough about the trustworthiness of Randy living in my home while I was traveling out of the country for a full 8 days. Excellent communication, respect of my home, and tremendous love shown towards my dogs! I’ve already booked Randy for my next vacation in April!!👍🐶

Amanda was great with our three Husky’s. They are all blowing their coats and she did a great job keeping up with the flying fur. Our dogs were so calm and relaxed when we got home, she did a great job of keeping me updated and I didn’t have to worry about whether or not they were well cared for during our vacation!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. I also have my own rabbit, Snoopy, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I have experience pet sitting for friends and family and am especially comfortable with large breeds including pit bulls, Dobermans, German Shepherds, and huskies. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations. I’m very attentive to pets and good at noticing when something seems off, and I’m comfortable communicating concerns quickly and getting veterinary care if needed. I will care for your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work full-time as an Operations Manager, but pet care fits easily into my routine! I’m available before and after work for walks, feeding, playtime, medications, and lots of attention. I am also available overnights! I make pet care a priority and will always communicate my schedule clearly so your pet gets reliable, loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive and good at noticing when something seems off, and I will always communicate updates or concerns quickly. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations if they arise. I will treat your home and pets with the same care, love, and respect I would want for my own. I also know how hard it can be being away from your pet (I’m definitely that pet parent too with my rabbit, Snoopy 😂), so I’m always happy to send plenty of photo and video updates for extra peace of mind!

About: Hello my name is Kristin. I love you caring for animals; all types and all ages. I have had everything from fish and hermit crabs to guinea pigs, dogs, cats, a salamander that lived to be 14 years old. I am happy to just let your dogs out, or play ball with them or take them for a walk down the street. I can stop in to help someone who can't care for their animals due to surgery or health. I can also take care of your farm animals, even just popping in to check the water troughs or buckets in the middle of the day. Prices vary depending on level of involvement. I take regular as well as sporadic appointments if you just want to take a night off and go out or would have an emergency. I do not offer in-house care at my home due to my senior animals. I create my own schedule. I love taking care of all animals: small animals to dogs and cats to farm animals. I have had guinea pigs, hermit crabs, fish, a salamander (who loved to be 14), dogs, cats and horses. I can be flexible, with notice, to suit a client's needs. I am very safe to not let any animals out the door unless they are leashed or have a fenced in yard. I had a cat who was a master escape artist growing up... I have not forgotten. I will follow any directions you have. I am glad to come in and just clean litter boxes for those that have physical difficulty or dislike doing that, etc. I will always be sure your gates and doors are locked when I leave.

I have a very flexible schedule at work with most weekends and evenings off! I can be available during the mornings and afternoons as well! I can adapt to your needs! I live in a multi pet household and know that not all dogs (even the same breed) are the same! I will love your pets as if they were my own!

FAQs for House Sitting - Marlboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 596 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marlboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Marlboro walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Marlboro maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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!

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 .

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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.

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.

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

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
