“Great experience! Jennifer took such good care of my dogs and sent daily updates. She even did a couple of favors for me while I was away. The dogs clearly enjoyed their time with Jennifer. We will book with her again for sure!”
“Elias was very professional and a great communicator! He was so good with our animals and we could tell they warmed up to him right away. We’d definitely book again!”
“Shauna is wonderful with our two pups, Tucker and Gidget. They love her and she is very attentive and warm to them. Shauna is easy to work with, bubbly personality, and cares greatly about giving Tucker and Gidget cuddly hugs. I look forward to working with her in the near future. Thank you Shauna.”
“Jocelyn was great to work with! I especially appreciated coordinating a meet and greet before our trip and her excellent communication. The animals seemed to enjoy their time with her and everything was in order when we returned.”
“Carla was great! She was patient with our dog who can be leery of strangers and we came home to a perfectly clean home after a long travel day! Will definitely book with her again.”
“Monique did an amazing job with my two dogs, Annie and Oakley. Communications was great the entire time and it was so helpful in making me feel at ease while we were away. They went on great walks and loved their time with her. House was in perfect condition when we got home which is always nice. Thanks Monique!!!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and rodents. I’m attentive to each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pet like my own. 🐾❤️ Every day looks a little different depending on each pet’s needs, but my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for. I work remotely online, so I’m home and available throughout the day, with my only set commitment being about an hour at the gym. Outside of that, my time is spent around the pets—feeding, walks, playtime, medications, cuddles, and keeping up with their normal routines. I primarily offer in-home pet sitting so your pets can stay comfortable in the place they know and love, surrounded by their familiar routines and smells. I follow each pet’s individual needs—from meals and walks to medications, playtime, cuddles, and everything in between—and treat every animal like they’re my own. Since I work remotely, I have plenty of flexibility to be home and give your pets lots of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away!
“Suzanne kept me in the know with my puppy daily and quick to respond. She and my pup got along very well and was well taken care of as well as the house itself. I recommend Suzanne to housesit for your furry friend! Thanks Suzanne ❤️”
“Annaclare is an excellent house sitter and dog sitter! She was very thoughtful and thorough in her care. She showed so much love to our boy during her stay, and was very proactive in asking any clarifying questions. She sent us excellent photos and updates which was so nice to have all these since it was our first time working with her. She spent such quality time with our boy during our time away…and I am so grateful. I highly recommend Annaclare.”
“We couldn't be more thrilled with the care Amanda provided for our beloved Schnoodle, Walter, during our recent trip. From the moment we met her, it was evident that she had a genuine love for animals, and that immediately put our minds at ease. Amanda went above and beyond to ensure that Walter felt comfortable and loved while we were away. Her communication was outstanding; she sent us regular updates, including adorable pictures and videos of Walter having the time of his life. It was evident that he was in good hands and having a blast with her. Upon our return, we were pleasantly surprised to find our house even cleaner than when we left it! Amanda truly went the extra mile and took care of not only Walter but also our home. It's safe to say that Walter has formed a special bond with Amanda, and he misses her dearly now that we're back. We couldn't recommend her highly enough to anyone in need of a caring and responsible pet sitter. Thank you, Amanda, for providing such exceptional care for Walter—we'll definitely be reaching out to you again for future pet-sitting needs!”
“Krista was awesome! She communicated well throughout, sent lots of pictures to let us know how our pets were doing, and took great care of our house! It was spotless when we got home. Thanks Krista!”
About: For over 15 years, caring for animals has been a natural and joyful part of my life. I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs of every kind, from tiny chihuahuas to energetic pitbulls, from playful kittens to independent alley cats and that lifelong experience has shaped the way I care for every pet I meet. My approach is rooted in empathy, patience, and a deep understanding of each animal’s unique personality and needs. Friends, family, and even coworkers have trusted me for years to look after their pets, knowing I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in keeping their fur babies safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s following detailed feeding routines, monitoring behavior changes, or making sure a shy cat feels comfortable, I take pride in noticing the little things that make a big difference. I also have extensive experience with high‑energy dogs from rambunctious puppies to enthusiastic adults who just need a fun outlet. I love matching their excitement with positive energy, play, structure, and affection. Bringing joy to animals is one of my favorite things, and I always aim to be a comforting, reliable presence for every pet in my care. Animals have been part of my world for as long as I can remember, and even today I spend my free time caring for my own cat, who keeps me entertained and grounded. With extra time on my hands, I’d love to help others who may not have as much flexibility. Supporting pet parents and giving their animals the love and attention they deserve is something I truly enjoy. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, pays attention to every detail, and brings genuine affection to every visit, I’d be honored to help care for your fur babies. I work full‑time Monday through Friday, but pet care fits naturally and consistently into my weekly routine. On weekdays, I’m available outside of my work hours for drop‑ins, evening visits, or care that aligns with the times I’m home. I make sure every visit is calm, focused, and never rushed, so your pets get real attention even on busy days. On weekends, I’m fully available all day, both Saturday and Sunday. This gives me plenty of time for longer stays, multiple visit days, or more hands on care for pets who need extra company, enrichment, or supervision. Whether it’s a single cat who loves affection or a household with multiple pets, I’m able to dedicate full days to keeping them happy and comfortable. I care for pets in their homes with the same respect and attention I give my own. When I’m in someone else’s space, I’m mindful of their privacy, routines, and boundaries. My focus is always on the pets keeping them comfortable, safe, and loved while honoring the trust their owners place in me. I value kindness, respect, and responsibility, and I bring those values into every visit with every fur baby I care for.
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She bravely took on a job no one else seemed to want, which was house-sitting and dog-sitting for two 6 month old puppies who are not yet house-trained. Housebreaking chihuahua puppies is a lot of work. (We're still working on it...), so this job required an extra dose of patience and diligence. Lauren sent us updates and photos of the puppies while we were away. She also kept our large selection of house plants alive, which is another job unto itself. I can't recommend Lauren highly enough, Anyone who gets Lauren to house or dog-sit is very lucky! We hope to hire her again next time we travel. She is trustworthy and responsible, and our pups love her too.”
“I felt super confident leaving my dog with Ava. She is such a good communicator and was very flexible with my needs for drop off and pickup. She stayed at my house and left everything very clean and tidy. Will definitely use again!”
About: I have cared for animals my whole life. My mom was a dog trainer and also fostered both dogs so I grew up knowing how to properly care for animals. I have one dog and two cats of my own now. I am a retired mental health professional, which means I have time on my hands to be your full-time pet caregiver. My schedule is flexible most of the time and I am available to be with your pet throughout the day and evening as needed. I am very conscientious and will make sure that I follow all of your instructions and leave your home as you left it. I am able to walk your dog(s) and give all of your animals the love that they deserve.
“First experience with Rover and we are so pleased to have had Sean watch our two pups! Our 80 lb girl is standoffish, but she immediately went to Sean and followed him around. Our 100lb boy immediately claimed Sean as his best friend. Sean was very good about keeping in contact and sharing pictures. He spent a lot of time playing outdoors and giving them quality time indoors. Working from home allowed Sean to stay and that was very important to us. We found Sean to be a warm and compassionate person and absolutely the best person for us! If you want the best for your pets you need Sean! We are very grateful to have met him!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Marshall
Alyvia has house sat for our cats twice now and both times she was absolutely wonderful. Great with communication, very helpful with a couple of random things that popped up around the house, left the house very clean, and great with the cats of course! Our cats are wary of new people and they warmed up to her quick! I would highly recommend hiring Alyvia to watch your fur babies!
Alyvia has watched our precious Odie many of times, she is absolutely amazing with him. He absolutely loves her and gets soo excited any time he sees her! We are so lucky to have her as Odies puppy sitter. It takes a weight off our shoulders knowing our little fur baby is getting such good care and is happy when we are away from home.
Alyvia gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy our family vacation because she gave amazing care for our 3 fur babies. Also knowing they were in our house doing their normal routine gave them zero anxiety that we were gone. She is highly reliable and respectful of our house while she pet and house sat.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 686 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Marshall. 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 Marshall 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 Marshall 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 Marshall 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
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. 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.
