“Jennifer was great! Milo was very comfortable and well taken care of. She sent us picture updates. She even washed the sheets and remade the bed!! Above and beyond. We will be asking her again.”
“Tanner was really awesome to work with and very good at communication. Came over for a meet and greet. Asked all the right questions. Helped us remember things that we should have asked and then while he was watching our two dogs we got awesome photos and updates on how they were doing. We plan on using him again and would highly recommend other people do the same!”
“Lexi is everything we wanted in a dog and house sitter. Kind, smart, mature and committed to the loving care we so want for our dogs to have while we were away! We received daily updates and photos of our pups, along with reassuring words that all was well. She got them out as often as we'd asked, and she cleaned up the yard regularly. Plus she clearly loved our dogs! We had complete confidence with her and highly recommend her to anyone needing dog or house sitting. We're super bummed she'll be moving out of state as we'd love to hire her in the future, but if you're looking for a sitter who will care for your dogs and home as much as you do, look no further. A true 5 star sitter!”
“Audrey did a wonderful job watching our giant Alaskan malamute and cat. She walked him everyday, and kept us updated daily with photos. I didn’t have to worry about a thing and we would book her again.”
“Melissa was great to work with. She made me feel very comfortable and she took great care of my puppy. She was very attentive to my specifications for my pup. She messaged with timely & detailed updates which helped ease my new dog mom nerves. Thanks Melissa!”
“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 ❤️”
“Jackie did a great job for us housesitting our dog and cat for a week while we were traveling—she even washed the sheets before we came home! We would definitely recommend her.”
“Jocelyn was an incredible house sitter when she stayed and watched our cat, Freyja during our vacation! Our usual house sitter had to cancel on us around 2/3ish weeks before our trip and so we reached out to Jocelyn to see if she was available. She was so sweet and set up our meet and greet promptly! During the stay, Jocelyn was an excellent communicator and shared regular updates and photos with us, which made us feel so comfortable with her watching our girl, Freyja. Additionally, Jocelyn left the apartment nice and tidy, which was so great to come home to. Overall, we were so happy with Jocelyn watching our cat child!”
“Shenna was wonderful with our dogs and brought real peace of mind while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions, showed genuine affection for the animals, and carried a calm “I got this” confidence from start to finish. We came home to happy pets and a clean, well-cared-for home. Her reliability and care truly stood out, and we’d definitely book with her again.”
“Julie was an absolute gem! Our girl calmed right down and enjoyed her new friend. Julie sent us photos showing Rosie nice and relaxed at hom, as well as playing ball. She even washed the sheets and emptied the dishwasher! We will definitely ask Julie to stay again.”
“Sydney was great!! I have huskies, so they are very active, plus they are spoiled rotten, and she was kind and loving. First time I have ever left my boys with a house sitter and when we got back they saw us, got their movies and went back to letting her pet them. They were well taken care of. She did send one Pic, to let me know how they were doing. But in fairness, I did text her daily asking for updates. So, she even put up with the overprotective dog mom. I will absolutely be inviting her back.”
“Carla was quick to respond and took great care of my dog when my other sitter backed out at the last minute. She sent pictures and updates and I could not have been happier with the service she provided.”
About: I've had pets for over two decades, including cats and dogs, so I understand what it takes to keep animals happy, healthy, and comfortable long-term. On top of that, I've spent the past few years house sitting for my sister's and cousin's dogs and cats, handling feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping their routines consistent while they're away. I'm attentive to each animal's personality and quirks, and I make sure they feel comfortable and loved the whole time their owners are gone. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I'm flexible with timing and can commit to consistent visits, whether that's daily drop-ins, dog walks, or day care throughout the week. I prioritize showing up reliably and on schedule, since I know pet parents need to trust that their routine won't be disrupted. I'm happy to work around your specific schedule and adjust as needed. Since I care for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to keep their environment safe, secure, and comfortable: locking up after myself, keeping to their normal routine, and paying close attention to any specific instructions from the owner. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own.
“I can't say enough how much I appreciate and love Ashten & Shelby! They did amazing with my pup as always and even earned some kitty cuddles which is very rare for my cats when they're around strangers. as an employee of Rover, this is the experience i hope for all Rover users”
“Rachel is great! We were so relaxed on our vacation knowing that our dog was getting good care and lots of affection! Our house was so clean when we returned too! We will definitely book here again!!”
“Cadie came through when I needed a last minute dog/house sitter for the evening. She was willing to meet me and get introduced to my dog within hours the same day and treated my guy with plenty of love overnight. She did a great job and was very professional. I’d recommend her and will be booking with her again. Thanks Cadie!”

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 698 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 .
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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
