About: I’m patient, caring, dependable, reliable and take my dog out on walks every day. I work from home so I will be with your beloved pet at all times. I work from home and have one dog who I walk daily. Most of my time is spent with my dog and if your dog stays with us, they will be with us all day. I do live in an apartment, however, I am active and attentive so I can provide a lot of activity outdoors or spend time with your dog indoors if that’s what they prefer.

About: I have had several puppies through the past 20 years and I also work with the local shelter, fostering dog/cat litters and volunteer walking dogs. I've potty trained them and taught them basic commands with marker training, such as sit, stay, off and come. I also have experience with reactive dogs, our own are adopted litter mates that are dog, people and leash reactive. My husband takes care of our dogs while I am watching yours. I am caring, responsible and guarantee I will take excellent care of your loved ones while you are away! I am confident that if your dog is working on potty training, I can instill and reinforce that behavior. I love going on long walks or runs and would take your pet for fun at the park if they are comfortable with that setting. I work contract to contract and am now free during the entire day to watch your pets. I like to go outside every few hours, sometimes a long walk in the afternoon. With puppies, I go outside every half hour to an hour and reinforce potty training with treats and excitement.

About: Hey, I’m Caitlin! I have been a dog owner my entire life, and have always adored caring for them. I’m always ready to match a dog’s energy, whether that be cuddling on a couch or playing fetch in the yard! I have had many experiences with dogs that need at home medical attention, such as administering unwanted pills. While most of my experience has been with dogs, I also enjoy getting to know cats, whether they be playful or sassy! I hope I can be the right fit for your furry friend! I’m currently a full time student at Eastern Washington University. My classes are Monday through Friday, taking up only two to four hours a day. I am a quick learner of the environment that a pet is in, and can adapt to their wants, needs, and routines. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I have a great understanding of making sure they are safe, cared for, and well loved.

About: I believe that like people, meeting dogs where they're at and fulfilling their individual needs is so important. I have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments, from high energy buddies to low energy love-bugs and everything in between. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, shy, avoidant dogs, and dogs with aggressive behavioural tendencies. Every dog deserves love, affection, and care, and I can't wait to meet yours! Currently, my availability is wide. So, I have plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pups. My schedule is flexible and I care for pets throughout Spokane. Every dog is different, and it can be stressful to some when their humans are away. I believe that making sure they are relaxed, happy, and comfortable is key. I look forward to getting to know and spend time with your dog!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for almost 10 years now. I have a senior dog and I have to frequently give medication morning and night, I also love any kind of dog, puppy, teen, or senior, I love going outside and playing with them. I had just recently moved to Cheney for college, so I don’t have any animals right now. At home I have two dogs and three cats. And during school, I would have to let them out in the morning and feed them, then when I got home, take them out for a walk usually 2 a day if I can. Then I let out and feed at night. I usually just spend time with them whenever I’m home. I prioritize safety by strictly following all house rules and feeding schedules provided by the owner. I always ensure doors are secure and provide regular photo updates to build trust and keep owners at ease while they are away.

About: Growing up with Newfoundlands, dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up learning that caring for a dog is about much more than simply providing food and taking them for a walk—it’s about understanding their individual personality, routines, comfort, and needs. As I got older, I became more involved in caring for our Newfoundlands, including preparing meals, going on walks, keeping them comfortable, and assisting with medications when needed. I learned how to make medication time a little easier and less stressful, including the occasional strategic glob of peanut butter! I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and paying close attention to changes in a dog’s behavior, appetite, energy, or overall demeanor. Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for friends’ dogs and follow their individual routines while their owners were away. I understand that consistency is important for dogs, especially when their people aren’t home. I make an effort to stick closely to their normal feeding, walking, bathroom, play, and bedtime schedules so they feel secure and comfortable. What sets me apart is the combination of my lifelong experience with large dogs, my calm and attentive personality, and my genuine love for animals. I’m also a nurse, so being observant, responsible, and attentive to details is naturally part of who I am. I take instructions seriously, communicate with owners, and understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, so caring for other people’s dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I miss having a dog around and would love the opportunity to give your pup plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and affection while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel like they’re getting a little vacation of their own—with someone who truly cares about them. Growing up with Newfoundlands, dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly miss having one around. I currently don’t have a pet of my own, so dog walking and pet care are a great way for me to stay connected with animals. As a nurse who works nights, my schedule can vary, but I’m able to be flexible and make time for regular walks, playtime, and quality attention. I’m excited to help fill the void of not having a dog at home while giving your pet the care, companionship, and exercise they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, so I’ll take the time to learn what works best for your pet and follow any specific instructions you provide. I’ll also respect your living space and leaving things exactly as they were found.

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.

About: Hi, I’m Ryan! I’m very passionate about dogs and providing the best care possible for any that are under my watch. I’ve been pet sitting, mostly dogs, for family, friends, co-workers, neighbors etc. for the last 20+ years. All types of dogs with different temperaments, conditions and at different stages of life. I’m capable and comfortable with dogs that require medical attention. Work extremely well with puppies. I can handle any dog big or small, high-energy or low-energy, anxious or fearless. Pet sitting is a responsibility I take very seriously. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as if they were my own. With regards to availability, I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and the ability to work from home every day. This allows me to consistently accommodate your pet's needs and give them the care and companionship they deserve. Currently, the services I can provide are in-home sitting during the day, overnight, or for an extended period of time, drop-in visits and dog walking. Willing to coordinate a steady and stable schedule. I believe in open, transparent communication so you’ll receive regular updates on your pet’s well-being while you are away. Whether that’s ensuring they get their medications, exercise, or playtime, I’m committed to maintaining their routines and keeping them happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! Very flexible schedule and the ability to work remotely. Lots of time to play and walk. Willing to coordinate a steady and stable schedule with you. I prefer to meet with the client and their pet in their home before beginning the pet sitting assignment. Develop a rapport with both the pet and the pet parent. Determine if there are any primary concerns. Record all pertinent information, including emergency contacts, veterinarian information, feeding instructions, medications, alarm codes, etc. Discuss what each visit will entail and go over a typical day in the life of your pet. Be transparent about what time I will be at your home for each visit and for how long. Make sure to discuss any secondary tasks I might be expected to perform, such as watering plants, bringing in mail, or turning the lights on and off each day. I like to proactively communicate with the pet owner. Text them when I arrive at their house and give a status update, reassuring them everything is in order and their pets are doing well. I try to be as thorough as possible. I'm good at recognizing the needs pets and responding accordingly. I'm patient and calm with pets that are withdrawn or scared. Pets are sensitive to change and may be missing their people, so I maintain their schedule as much as possible. To keep pets safe in your home, I'll prioritize creating a pet-friendly environment by removing potential hazards like toxic plants, small objects, and unsecured electrical cords, ensuring access to fresh water and food, providing regular exercise, maintaining a safe space, and being aware of any specific medical needs the pet may have. I always keep my phone charged and on me in case I need to be reached.

About: Dog owners and their dogs will love the fact that I understand a dogs needs I have three dogs of my own who I spend most of my time around, I understand the basics of caring about dogs and how to treat them and teach them how to be well behaved! I’ve had my oldest dog from the time he was 8 weeks, he is now 11. I have trained him how to sit, speak, shake hands, lie down, and he was fully potty trained in 1 month of having him! I also enjoy cuddling and playing outside with dogs which I’ve learned dogs are just like humans they need activity and love to stay happy and healthy, and that’s why I believe my service will be a wonderful thing. I’m currently working part-time and would love to be able to help take care of your animals, when you go on vacation or just need them walked. Dogs will always be on leash and walk on the inside part of the sidewalk, when letting them out to use the restroom I’ll ensure it’s safe for them to do so first if the area isn’t fenced.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Marshall

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,074 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Marshall. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
