“Marissa was perfect for our pets. The pets were so happy and I loved getting pics of our cats and dog everyday and text messages to let us know how everything was going. Then we didnt stress and really was able to enjoy our vacation. My one grumpy cat did feel comfortable enough that he came out from under the bed and let her brush him. That is an award for Marissa in itself. He rarely will come out to "strangers". So the pets have made Marissa one of the family.”
“Mary was wonderful with my fur babies. They both seemed to do well with her. Jake my Australian Shepard loves walks. Mary and him went on a walk. I would definitely book Mary again.”
“I highly recommend Payton as a pet sitter. She took wonderful care of my dog while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being and happiness.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our three dogs received! From the moment we left, she kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was so clear she treated them not just as clients, but as her own — they were loved, comfortable, and happy the entire time. We will absolutely be booking again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond!”
About: I am so excited to start my Rover experience! Every dog is different and silly in their own way, and that is my absolute favorite part of pet sitting. I have cared for everything from tiny lap dogs to large breeds, crazy puppies to sweet senior dogs. I also have experience with reactive dogs on/off leash. I will treat them like my own, paying attention to their individual personality, routines, and needs, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands! I work nights at the hospital, so my days are always available! I am also available for nighttime check ins, if requested! I am very accommodating and flexible with timing and schedules. Feel free to switch up on me last minute - I go with the flow :) I am prepared to provide attentive care to your furry friend. I will respect and follow routines, boundaries and expectations. My goal is to achieve clear and effective communication while you are away. Expect lots of photos and updates!
“We took a short trip and was fortunate enough that Jennifer was available to watch our fur family for us while we were gone. We had never had anyone stay in our home like that before, and honestly, were a bit apprehensive. We did an in person meet and greet with Jen and John and felt very comfortable afterward. She sent daily pictures of our family, even the one who hid most of the time she was here. Communication was top notch and she had cleaned our house before we got home. That was very appreciated after a long day's travel. Would I recommend them? 100% yes. You couldn't go wrong!”
“We have used Alaska several times for our Saint Bernard Margo and Margo always seems to enjoy her visits! Alaska is friendly, communicative, and attentive. She lets us know if Margo's been having a good day, or if something was off. She's exactly what you want if you're looking for someone you can trust on Rover.”
“When I met Catherine she immediately gave off the most trustworthy, sweet vibes and Finnley thought the same thing!!! She gave updates with tons of pictures, took Finnley on super long walks multiple times a day (running too) and she even does dog training! But the reason I recommend Catherine so highly over other Dog Sitter‘s is because her genuine soul shines through as a PERSON! Any dog sitter could send photos and take your dog on a walk, but they also could have the intention of just collecting a paycheck.. after speaking to Catherine for just 10 minutes her compassion towards others and being kind in life was clear and it was beautiful to hear about her dream of one day creating a homeless rehab rehabilitation project! For me- I would go out of my way to hire her again, knowing what a good person she is, her passion to help, and that anything I paid her was supporting such a beautiful dream!”
About: Hi! I’ve spent years sitting and walking dogs for friends and family, so I definitely know every dog has their own personality and am happy to cater to them and take whatever time is needed to make them the most comfortable! Growing up there were always 3+ dogs in the house including puppies, seniors, and dogs with disabilities, so I’m equipped to handle all stages of life and different needs! I am patient, understanding, experienced, and ready to give your dog the most loving care! As a student with a part-time job my schedule is pretty flexible! For dogs, that means consistent walks, potty break, and feedings that match their normal schedule. For cats, regular feeding times, litter maintenance, and plenty of attention if they prefer it! Since my shifts change week to week, I will always confirm availability ahead of time and communicate about timing! Your pets safety is my top priority, in your home or mine! I live in an apartment, so I’m mindful about creating a secure, calm place, free of hazardous foods or items. I treat every pet in my care with the same level of attention I’d want for my own, so you can feel confident your dog or cat is in a safe and comfortable environment.
About: I have taken care of my family’s pets and family friends pets since I was 15. I take them outside, feed them, play with them, and help bathe them. My grandma usually needs help taking her dogs out, give the dogs their medication, and bathe them. I also watch our family friends dog, billy when they are away. I have a large yard, i keep the dogs leashed when I walk outside with them. When I go to family friends houses they have an invisible fence to kelp their dogs in their yard.
About: Hi! I’m a 30-year-old nurse and proud beagle mom to my sweet 5-year-old girl. As someone who works long shifts in healthcare, I truly understand how important it is to have reliable, loving care for your pets when life gets busy. That’s why I’m offering drop-in visits for pets in the nearby area, helping give fellow pet parents peace of mind. My schedule can vary, so I kindly ask for 1–2 weeks’ notice to coordinate visits around my work shifts. I’m also open to overnight house sitting depending on availability—we can chat to see what works best! On my days off, I love getting outside and would be happy to take your pup for a walk on a nearby trail—possibly even alongside my own friendly beagle, if you’re comfortable with that. She’s great with other dogs and would love the company! Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a relaxing walk, or some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help care for them like one of my own. my schedule changes weekly, so my availability is variable. I’m primarily available for drop-in visits close to home on my days off, and I kindly ask for 1 to 2 weeks’ advance notice whenever possible to help me plan ahead. I’m open to overnight stays after building trust and familiarity with clients, but those will depend on my work schedule. I also occasionally travel, so consistent communication is appreciated for long term planning. I do not provide in-home boarding or care at my own home, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own environment. I’ll follow your instructions closely to maintain their routine. Safety and trust are very important to me, and I’m always respectful of your space and your pet’s needs.
“Allie clearly has an affinity with animals. My Lilly almost immediately took to her, and seeing them interact put me at ease. Trusting someone not only to be in your home, but to take care of your fur baby is a serious endeavor. Allie is worthy of that trust, and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for this kind of service.”
“Kristie is thoughtful and lovely. She is an extremely considerate pet sitter. Dixon and Bit almost didn’t want us to come home. They had a great time with her. Dixon was brushed and petted and generally extremely happy. I’m thrilled. We will love to have her stay with our fur babies again”
About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.

Amber was great, we felt very comfortable and at ease with her watching our French Mastiff, Delilah, during our week vacation. Amber stayed in our home with Delilah, she was very communicative and very accommodating. We highly recommend Amber and we will be sure to contact her for future sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 158 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Point Marion. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Point Marion walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Point Marion maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Point Marion 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!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
