Safety, trust & environment

I'm happy to do drop ins at your home for dogs+ cats or take your pups for a neighborhood walk. I can also do overnight house sitting. I have reactive dogs at home so I play it safe as far as avoiding other dogs/triggers on walks.

Information Marlon B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pets have any special needs, dietary restrictions, or health issues ahead of time. I prefer a written list if possible.

A typical day

I'm happy to entertain your cats during a drop in, play fetch with your dog in a fenced area, walk, jog, or whatever your pets needs are.

Pet care experience

I've cared for elderly dogs and cats of my own for years. My wife is also a rover sitter but mainly does cats and small dogs. We have also fostered 4 dogs in the past few years. One of my dogs at home has epilepsy, so I am experienced with seizures and giving meds on a regular schedule. I'm also experienced walking reactive dogs. Have cared for turtles, frogs, fish, chickens, etc.

Marlon is wonderful with our springer spaniel Kona. Kona loves his walks and gets very excited when I get the leash out!

Marlon does a wonderful job with my energetic and sometimes anxious springer spaniel Kona. He is always on time and Kona is very excited to see him! I would highly recommend Marlon and Rover to anyone needing help with their pet!

Marlon took the best care of my slightly nervous lab mix. Marlon's quiet and calm approach was just what was needed for this dog. If your animal startles at fireworks and cars backfiring or quits eating if you leave town--Marlon will work his magic. Marlon is outdoorsy, so the dog got plenty of hikes and walks, and she loved riding in the car with him. I left Marlon my ridiculous list of doggie notes, and he took it in stride. Side note: Marlon also housesat for me while caring for my dog; I trust him completely with my house. If you need him to enter on or off the property to get your animal or check on an animal if you're out of town, he's reliable and trustworthy.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
