I am more than happy to meet you and spend time with you and your babies before you decide on me, so you feel extremely comfortable with who is taking care of your fur babies!

“We have utilized Shakoya’s services many times. Our dog, Eggo LOVES her. She takes such good care of him while we are away. We can travel knowing he is in good hands. She is reliable and goes above and beyond.”
About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of who I am. As a mom of four and the owner of three dogs, along with fish and frogs, I'm used to providing consistent, attentive care every day. Over the years I've also cared for rabbits, turtles, cats, birds, gerbils, ferrets, giving me experience with a variety of pets and their unique needs. I have a special place in my heart for rescue animals and understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while keeping you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule because I'm a stay-at-home mom with flexibility during the day. My children are in school, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins without feeling rushed. Because I have a flexible schedule, I'm often available for daytime visits, and last-minute requests when my calendar allows. I understand that pets thrive on routine, and I'm committed to giving them the time, attention, and affection they deserve while you're away. During the week not available much after 2; however, I can be flexible on the weekends. I have a very busy household with 4 children (15,15,13,8) and 3 dogs (2 chiweenies 10lb, 16lb & 1 rescue pup about 30 lbs. So, staying at my place wouldn't work for most animals- but not opposed with it for special circumstances. My yard is fenced in.
About: I have five years of taking care of pets and am passionate about bonding with pets and providing them with the care they need to thrive. I currently work remotely and on my own schedule so I will have plenty of time to devote to taking care of and spending time with your pets! I take care of pets in their home environment. I make sure to take care of your home and your pets as if they were my own.
About: I will make sure your dog gets the exercise they need as well as my love and affection! I will pay attention to weather concerns beforehand that may affect our walk. Your dog's safety is my number 1 concern. For drop-ins, I am trustworthy of entering your home to care for your animal. Let me know if they have any allergies or need oral medication and I can take care of that! About me- my mini poodle's name is Carmen. She is my angel- a cuddle buddy indoors and high energy outdoors! With Carmen, I have learned how a dog can read your body language and act accordingly. I always maintain a calm, loving composure around dogs so they feel safe and comfortable. I can’t wait to meet your pup and offer them a home away from home!
About: I've always taken care of my dogs growing up. My dog right now requires a very in depth feeding and medication regimen. She is 13 years old and has a special diet with a very timed out schedule for her medications. I also have experience with young dogs/puppies. I have lots of experience with older cats and a little with kittens, but not a ton. I work in food service during the day, so I have tons of time in the afternoon/evening and night to care for your pets! I can also move my schedule around if needed I've had dogs throughout all my life that have had vastly different temperaments, so I know how to care for animals of all kinds.
About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for them my entire life. I’ve fostered dogs, cared for multiple dogs at once (including having three at the same time), and have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I also had a senior dog who I lovingly cared for until she passed at age 18, which gave me experience with older dogs, patience, and attentive care. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always treat pets as if they’re my own. I work Monday-Friday from 7am-2pm, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and nights during the week. I’m also available on weekends and happy to provide care, walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their comfort level and personality. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.
About: Hi! We’re Christina and Brian, a husband-and-wife pet sitting team who love giving pets the comfort and consistency of staying in their own home while their people are away. 🐾 We are both approved Rover sitters and have each completed Rover’s background check, which gives us the flexibility to work together or individually depending on the needs and schedule of each booking. We’ll always communicate with you ahead of time about who will be caring for your pets so you know exactly what to expect. 🐾 One of the perks of our different schedules is that we can offer flexible care. Christina works remotely and when she is the primary sitter, can often work right from your home. This means she is able to spend much of the day with pets who enjoy extra companionship or aren't used to being alone for a traditional workday. Brian works outside of the home during the day, so his housesitting schedule looks more like a traditional work schedule with care before and after work and overnight. 🐾 We understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. We’re happy to follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, bedtime routines, and all of the little things that help your pets feel like life is as normal as possible while you're gone. 🐾 We also know how important it is to feel comfortable with the people staying in your home. We take that responsibility seriously and want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pets and home are being well cared for. We provide regular updates and photos and are always happy to communicate as much or as little as you prefer. 🐾 Before accepting a booking, we like to make sure we're a good fit for your pets, their routine, and the amount of time they’re accustomed to being alone. That way, we can determine which of us is the best fit for your stay and make sure everyone knows exactly what to expect before booking. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.
About: Ive had many different pets from hamsters, fishes, and dogs. My oldest dog is now 10 years old (cocker spaniel), middle child is 7 (cheweenie), and my youngest is 1yr and 2 months! I’ve done pet sitting for my neighbors around me. I love animals! My own babies are an array of ages so any age is welcomed! I am comfortable administering medication! Can’t wait to meet and walk your fur babies! I’m currently working part time as a student majoring in business administration! My schedule tends to change week to week but please shoot me a message and I can work around it! I have my own dogs at home. Taken out at least 3 times a day! All super friendly. I have loads of treats, toys, and a cozy crate if needed! We have interactive mats as well to keep their minds busy!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marvin
Jackie was amazing with my girls!! Shelby has anxiety & she loved Jackie the moment they met. She made Shelby feel comfortable & did everything right so Shelby wasn’t scared. Jackie also made sure Hemi got plenty of love & attention. I was able to go out of town with no worries & that is the best feeling as a pet mom!
Gracie was incredible! Our dog isn’t the easiest but she took care of her and our cat effortlessly. She is very punctual and very communicative, never felt like I had to pry to figure out what was going on at home she just always said everything in her reports and mentioned anything out of the ordinary she saw day to day. She even left food out for the stray cats that come by! Thanks so much for everything!
Eli’s wonderful! She’s incredibly reliable and prompt, and her communication is always excellence. I never have to wonder how things are going or whether our pups have been taken care of. I know I can count on her. She truly spends time with our pups, giving them lots of love attention and of course, a few treats! 😊 Eli is always very attentive to our home, which gives me such peace of mind when we’re away. I especially appreciate that she’s willing to help with light household tasks when we’re gone for an extended period. One of my favorite things is getting pictures of the pups! Seeing their happy faces and knowing they’re enjoying their time with Eli makes being away a little easier. Eli’s dependable, caring, attentive, and someone I completely trust with both of our pups and our home. We’re so grateful to have her and would absolutely recommend her!
Cortney is friendly and reliable and punctual, I asked her to bring her dog over to my house for a drop-in because I have a golden retriever as well and I wanted them to be able to play together. She was right on time and sent me a nice update with photos of her visit. My dog told me she is looking forward to having more play dates soon!

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.
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 Marvin 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
