“Priyanka was wonderful with Carlos and Chief! Her communication was great and she provided the best photos of them while I was away - even better than I get sometimes! I would highly recommend Priyanka for your cat-sitting needs.”
About: I had a dog when I was a kid, and I honestly miss the joy that he brought me! I've always loved dogs simply for the warmth that they bring, but getting to care for them, play with them, and take them on beautiful walks would be the cherry on top. I'm committed to making sure all furry friends in my care are happy, safe, and well taken care of as if they were my own. I hope to be considered as the pawfect choice! I’m currently working as a part-time freelancer in my industry, so I am able to make pet care a big part of my daily and weekly routines. I am available Sunday through Saturday at whatever times work best for you since I have a flexible schedule! When I have the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet, I am very attentive and careful. I prioritize safety, comfort, and making sure every Furry Friend gets suited to their personality and energy level. I will follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated to make sure I am creating a positive experience.
“Cristina took wonderful care of my 4-month-old kitten for a week while my family and I were out of town. She communicated well, responded promptly, and sent us pictures every day. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my kitten and took great care of her. Cristina followed all of my instructions and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Before we returned, she took out the kitty litter garbage and left the bathroom clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Cristina to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and responsible pet sitter!”

I have volunteered with local animal shelters, adopted and trained three dogs of my own, and fostered multiple dogs over the years.

When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, exercise, and any special needs or preferences.

“Deliris was very communicative and accommodating with taking care of our cats; I never once worried about them in her care! She sends great pictures and very detailed updates. I recommend choosing her to sit your babies!”
“We had such a great experience with Kethely! She took wonderful care of our kitty while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind the entire trip. We really appreciated all the updates, photos, and the genuine care and attention she gave him. It made being away from him so much less stressful knowing he was in such good hands. We will and have booked with Kethely again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter 😊! Thank you so much Kethely!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maplewood
Jullien has been phenomenal with our dogs Annie and Lucy. We trust him in our home and with our fur babies. He provides thorough Rover cards with beautiful photos and he's communicative and organized. We would recommend Jullien to anyone who would like to have their pets well cared for and safe.
Kethely is such a sweetheart and was amazing with our baby pomsky! She was such a big help when we needed someone for drop in visits while on vacation. She always sends daily videos and pictures so that we were constantly updated on how our puppy was doing, and it gave us peace of mind knowing the good care our fur baby was in. We would definitely rebook with her and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable caring pet sitter!
Bianca was amazing while my husband and I were away! She was so prompt and followed all our instructions perfectly. She also showed us so much love, care, and patience, especially with our three dachshunds—especially our little guy, who was a bit anxious and timid at first. Dachshunds, especially three, can be a bit of a challenge and can get a little chaotic, but she handled all three with such compassion. She even offered some alternative options when scheduling conflicts came up. Thanks again, Bianca! We’re already looking forward to booking with you again :)
Jennifer has a special relationship with Jolene - 10 minutes before Jenn arrives, always on time, Jolene starts to get excited and ready for her long walk. Rain, Sleet, Snow, Bad Attitudes (the dog) and even in sickness (Jolene is getting old) - Jennifer is here for us.
Veronica took care of our dog while we went to Paris. We ended up getting stuck in Paris two extra days because of the blizzard that hit the northeast. Veronica took our dog to her place so she could make sure she was okay during the storm. She went far beyond what we expected of her. I cannot recommend her enough. Your pet will be in excellent hands with Veronica!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Maplewood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Maplewood 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
To find sitters in Maplewood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
