“Sadie enjoyed her stay with Kaia & Desean…she is a very skiddish puppy and did incredibly well with them 😆 They sent a pic daily with an update, which was greatly appreciated!! We would highly recommend them to take great care of your beloved pet!!”

“Amazing! My dog is very shy and can be antisocial. I am always nervous about boarding him but this couple made my experience stress free. Very sweet and kept me updated throughout Bronx’s entire stay. 10/10 recommend. Will be booking again.”

“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”

“Great experience! Our dogs were well cared for, and we appreciated the photos, updates, and the wonderful interaction with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our pets!”

“Jennifer is awesome. She took such great care of my baby, Beau, while we were out of town. She was able to accommodate us even though it was such short notice which we were very grateful for. She still took the time to meet us before he was going to be dropped off and answer any questions or concerns we had. She sent pictures and videos, and it was clear to me that my dog had a BLAST. I have no doubt that she will go above and beyond for your fur baby as well. I highly recommend using Jennifer!”

“I was able to book with Casey last minute and she took great care of my Sweetie. When my cousin picked my dog up she said my dog was walking around like she was home and comfortable. I would definitely rebook and you should too.”

“Kerri and Chris are amazing amazing they kept my fur baby cooper and took such great care of him. I got pictures, videos and messages. I will only use them for cooper they are 10 out of 10”


“Megan was extremely easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. She sent pictures and was fast to respond to anything we needed or asked. Would absolutely board with her again.”


“Samantha helped me out at the last minute and was wonderful!! I have an older dog that I don’t just leave with anyone, and I was very pleased!! Thanks so much! I would definitely use her again!”


“Destiny did great with our boy! He seemed really happy in all the pictures we were sent and she said he did great for her! We were really pleased with her service!”

“Re-booked this sitter because they are awesome! Will definitely re-book again if possible. Took excellent care of my pet and sent me plenty of pictures and updates to let me know how she was doing while I was away! Thank you!!”

“Gloria is very kind & my Loki had a great stay with her! I had never left him with anyone and was very nervous about leaving him with someone I didn't know at all but she is very genuine, kind, has the perfect setup for dogs. When we come back next year for my son's next graduation I will 100% be booking with Gloria again! Loki is a very sweet dog but sometimes he is very skittish of new people. He took up with her immediately and probably would have stayed from now on with her! Also, I have to say I booked very last second, late at night as my other plans fell through & she really bailed me out. I can't recommend her enough or articulate just how much of a blessing she was for my family during a very important trip.”

“Alex and her husband were so great! My dogs were so worn out by the time they got home (which means they had a great time). Alex was very carrying and was always sending photos. My two pups enjoyed their stay so much.”

“We were a little reluctant to leave Sophie and Lilah for a week while we were out of town. Thank goodness we found Robin, she took great care of our girls. She sent us pictures and videos everyday. In the pur daily pictures, our girls looked happy and even looked like they were smiling. It put our minds at ease and we could really relax knowing our pups were being well cared for. When we brought them home, they were exhausted from playing. We immediately booked another date with Robin. I highly recommend Robin if you need to board your pups. Great experience.”

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Marvyn can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Marvyn home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Marvyn.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Marvyn. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Marvyn sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
