“We have had to be out of town several times in the last couple of months. We have had Shalene watch Ozzie three times and he really seems to have a good bond with her. She is flexible and easy to work with.”
“First time booking Audrey for house sitting (have booked previously for drop in visits) and I am very happy when I come home to two happy cats and a clean home. Thank you Audrey :)”
“Jennifer arrived promptly & my pup Daisy immediately fell in love with her. I was gone for about 6 hours, received a cute photo, & came home to a happy dog. I will definitely book Jennifer again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Julie provided for our three dogs. Her responsiveness to our emails and texts along with being very conscientious to our pets’ needs gave us peace of mind while we were away. The dogs were happy, healthy and most importantly, safe, when we returned home. We have already booked her for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Julie if you want a responsible, caring pet sitter.”
“Rachel is the best! Very professional and responsive. My dogs love her and are always well cared for while I’m away. She always leaves the house clean and is such a thoughtful house/ dog sitter. Will definitely be using Rachel again and again! She’s very reliable, loving towards the dogs, and when she’s watching the dogs/house we know we don’t have to worry about a thing. Peace of mind is amazing to have while on vacation.”
“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!”
“Bethany was wonderful and our pets were healthy and happy when we returned. She sent us lots of pictures and babysat the crew through a big thunderstorm. We never worried that our pets were not taken care of and the house was in good shape when we returned. She even stripped the sheets off the bed. We would use her again to house sit.”
“Ryan took excellent care of our dogs and our home. He kept in touch with regular videos and photos, maintained their routine, checked in when he had a question, and left our home spotless. I know that our girls were loved and cared for, letting us having a care-free time away from home. We will definitely be booking with Ryan in the future, and highly recommend if you have high maintenance dogs!”
About: I’ve been pet and house sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for 10 years now. I have had dogs of my own, and I currently live with two lovely golden retrievers. I enjoy helping others in this way by alleviating stress and making sure their pet(s) are well cared for while they’re away! I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of time with your pets! I’m available Mondays and Tuesdays before 10am for a morning walk, and Wednesdays-Fridays any time for walks, play and quality time. Im available for pet and house sitting weekdays and weekends! When you provide the details of your pet’s routine, I’ll make sure they will be well cared for, and the routine consistent! They’ll get lots of active time and attention.
“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!!!”
“Alex was absolutely wonderful to work with and my animals loved them. My cat and dogs warmed up to them so quickly and felt very comfortable. I will absolutely book with them again and look forward to working with them again.”
“It can be hard to find a sitter that enjoys big dogs. Our big, goofy dogs love Clara! We appreciate that she let us know how they were doing and help them stay happy and on their routine (as it helps the smaller of our two dogs keep her anxiety down while we’re away). We will definitely call on her again.”
“Jocelyn was a great sitter for our three pets, two kittens and a senior teacup dog. She took our garbage cans out and back multiple times and even watered our plants. We’ll definitely be using Jocelyn again!”
“This is the second time we’ve used Carla as our pet/home sitter and each time we’ve been able to travel knowing they’re in great hands. She is an excellent communicator which really set my mind at ease.”
“Melissa was by far the best sitter we have used! She was prompt with visits and getting them outside. They grew to love her visits. She kept in constant contact with us. Almost want to go on another trip in order to have her again!!”

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.

FAQs for House Sitting - Marshall
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 689 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 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.

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.
