Top rated Marvin house sitters
“Monica was absolutely incredible. From the very beginning, she bonded so well with Kairo—it was clear he adored her, and that gave me peace of mind. While I was away, she went above and beyond: caring for Kairo with love and attention, sending photos, managing an important package delivery, coordinating with landscapers, and keeping everything in order at my home. When I returned, Kairo was happy, the house was clean, and everything felt calm and cared for. Monica was more than a sitter—she was a true house manager and care agent. Her communication, reliability, and warmth are top tier. I highly recommend Monica and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Kristin did a great job sitting for our dogs. She spent several days with them and they had a great time. The dogs seemed very comfortable with her and we were happy she was able to spend lots of time with them. She provided updates multiple times per day including pictures of them around the house and around the pool. We came home to happy and stress free dogs. We would definitely book her again!”
“Nikki did such an amazing job caring for our two pups during a 4 day house sitting. As littermates, they needed someone with extra patience and experience handling their occasional reactivity. She really took the time to get to know them and understand their individual behaviors. Nikki made us feel so comfortable with regular updates, and adorable pictures. She even managed to leave the house cleaner than when she arrived! Next booking is just weeks away, twice as long, and we have no doubts that she'll be fantastic with them again!”
“Lauren sent great photos and updates throughout the day. She took extra care and was so intentional with our pup, Scout. We will definitely be happy to have her back to care for him!”
“I can't recommend Karyna enough! She recently stayed with my dog, Rosie, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. From our first interaction, Karyna was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive to Rosie’s needs and personality. Rosie can be a bit shy at first, but Karyna took the time to make her feel comfortable, and it was clear from all the updates that Rosie quickly felt at home with her. Karyna sent plenty of photos and messages, so I always knew Rosie was happy, healthy, and having a great time. She went above and beyond to keep Rosie’s routine consistent and even spent extra time with her playing her favorite games and giving her belly rubs, which Rosie absolutely loved.”
“Bria did a fabulous job of watching my boys! I have a special needs pup and she took great care of him!!! I could tell my boys were happy and well-loved while we were away. We will definitely use Bria in the future!”
“Eric was terrific! He was very communicative and sent many pictures of him and Buster having a great time! I can tell that he treated Buster as if he was his own by the pictures. Buster looked content as could be. Eric also took amazing care of the house leaving it very neat and clean! I would absolutely have him stay with Buster again, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a kind and reliable pet-sitter.”
“Carissa, was amazing with our lab. She gave him tons of attention and took such great care of him. She sent daily photos through out the day to keep us posted. Will definitely use her again.”
“I haven’t taken a vacation in 5 years… I was a foster mom for Kittens when I lived in Boston, now living in South Carolina. I have several little fur babies that I don’t trust with many people they are my children. When I got onto Rover‘s website, I read review after review after review. Jill had all five stars and for very good reason. She’s very attentive to my animals, very kind, professional, took pictures every day of the babies, kept me in the loop when she was leaving the house and when she was in for the night. I hired Jill to stay for a week in my home while I was away and she worked her full-time job during the day. My mind and my heart was at ease thanks to Jill. She’s great!!!!”

“Alexa was amazing with our pups. We have a high energy malamute and a chill husky (yes, that exists 😊) and she was able to balance both of their needs and care for them and keep them happy and feeling loved. It’s never easy to leave my fur babies but when I do, I would love to work with Alexa again in the future!”
“Andri did an excellent job watching my fur baby. She kept me informed of everything and communicated effectively. She knows her stuff when it comes to fur babies. Thank you Andri!”
About: I’ve volunteered with The Humane Society of Charlotte for 2 years, so I have quite the experience to administer medication and caring for younger to older animals! I do work part-time, so availability won’t be a problem! Therefore, I’ll have the availability to care for your pets while you and/or your family are away! When I am not home, your animal will or will not be crated based on your preference. Primarily for their safety and for the safety of the home. When I am home, they will be supervised and can run free!
“Miles is wonderful. I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy and two cats in his care after seeing how they responded to him during our meet-and-greet. He is thoughtful and communicative—he checked in multiple times a day with updates and photos, so we were able to relax knowing everyone was okay. I would absolutely ask him to sit for us again.”
“Lauren was wonderful with my two labs. They were clearly very comfortable and happy in her care. She went above and beyond”
“Melanie was wonderful! She came to the rescue when I needed someone on short notice. She took good care of Elroy including sending me pictures, took good care of the house, was very responsive. I will definitely use her again and absolutely would recommend her for anyone looking for a great pet sitter.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine lifelong passion I have for caring for animals. I actually started taking care of both cats and dogs when I was in 3rd grade, which gave me an early sense of responsibility and a deep understanding of how to connect with pets. Since then, I've continued to build on that experience, always treating each pet like they're my own. I go out of my way to make sure they're not just safe and healthy, but truly happy—whether that means extra playtime, a comfy spot to nap, or simply giving them lots of love and attention. Their joy and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. Each morning, I start by feeding my pet and making sure they have fresh water. I also take time for a short walk or play session to get them moving. In the afternoon/evening, usually dedicate time for a longer walk and some quality bonding time. I clean their bedding, wash food and water bowls thoroughly, and check that they’re up to date on medications or preventive care. It’s a consistent commitment, but it’s also rewarding and helps me stay organized and active. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I follow specific feeding schedules, ensure fresh water is always available, and provide regular exercise suited to the pet’s breed and energy level. I also pay close attention to any health or behavioral changes and keep the environment clean and secure. In a client's home, I respect their routines and instructions closely, maintain open communication, and provide updates as needed. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their space by giving them positive attention, maintaining their usual routines, and minimizing stress when they're away from their owners.
“Sweet, kind and responsible thank you so much!”

“Rachel has been helping me care for my 2 black labs for years.i met her through a friend.i needed someone to stay with my dogs for a weekend.i knew immediately when she met me and my dogs that it was going to be a great fit. The dogs just love her. She talks to them plays with them and gives them so many hugs and kisses. Also lots of tummy scratches. We have a fenced yard and I don't walk them because of my knees. She walks them and they love it. She also let's them sleep with her which I'm in with because they sleep with me. Sometimes she'll just come for the day if I'll be gone for a long time. Basically what ever I need. I completely trust Rachel with my dogs and my home. She's very clean. She'll even vacuum dog hair if needed. It's so nice not having to worry. My dogs actual miss her for a couple of days after she leaves. You would be lucky to have her.”

Marvin pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kennedy was so sweet with our 8-month-old dog, Lilly! She gave her lots of love, played with her, and took her for long walks. She was responsive and kept us updated with pictures. She left the house clean and brought in mail and packages. Kennedy is thoughtful, kind and a pleasure to work with! We’d definitely have her back to stay with Lilly again!
We cannot say enough good things about Zoe! She is extremely professional and knowledgeable about dogs and puppies and we felt very at ease leaving our 9 week old puppy with her. Not only did she take great care of her and kept us updated each day with a lot of information and pictures-she also worked with our puppy on training as well! We are so relieved we have found a trusted caretaker for our puppy and we will definitely be using her again in the future. We highly recommend!
Kara was an Amazing Pet Sitter for my Ziva French Bulldog she sent me pics on a daily basis and i didn’t expect her to eat her normal routine because this is the first time I have traveled since I adopted her. But I will be sure to recommend her in the future and being that I don’t travel much, I will certainly pick her again next time.
Lauren did an amazing job. I could tell my Rottweiler loved her from the smiles in the pictures. Lauren had great communication and followed all my instructions. I would definitely use her again and I am very happy that I found her.
Julia was such an amazing dog sitter and took such good care of our apartment too. She gave me daily updates about Bella and how she was doing and I knew Bella was in good hands, which always made me feel at ease while I was away. Absolutely will be using Julia for future trips!!
We were so lucky to have Logan house sit for us! From the moment we left, we felt totally at ease knowing our home - and more importantly, our pets - were in such great hands. Logan went above and beyond loving on our cats and dogs, and she sent us the best pictures that made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. When we got home, the house was spotless - like we’d walked into a cozy, well-loved retreat. You could tell Logan treated our home and pets with true care and respect. Highly recommend Logan to anyone looking for a responsible, kind-hearted sitter who treats your pets like their own. Can’t wait to have her back next time!
Miles is fantastic! He regularly communicated and updated us during his stay and made sure he clearly understood all instructions for our elderly dog, Lewis. We really appreciate his patience with Lewis and the photos! A++++++ experience. Highly recommend! Will use again!
Erika was so great! My dog seemed very happy when I got back so I know she was well taken care of during my trip.
Rickiya was attentive, responsive and sent updates often. She was super loving to the dogs and they all loved her in return. She took the time to fulfill their health needs and also gave them lots of love. She was communicative and respectful. She also stayed at the house and was such a great house guest! Will be using her services again in the future and will probably be the first person we’ll contact when we are making travel plans.
John is a wonderful pet sitter. My two shih tzu’s love him! He takes good care of them and leaves our house spotless!
Tayler was awesome! She spent so much time with our cat and was exactly what we needed while we were away. She was great about sending updates and pictures. We came home to a clean house and a well taken care of kitty. I would have her back in a heartbeat!
