“Felicity did an excellent job taking care of our three high-maintenance cats! She came to meet them ahead of time, which we really appreciated, and while we were gone, she sent very detailed care reports and pictures. We feel extremely comfortable leaving our pets in her care again in the future — it’s so nice to have the peace of mind when we go out of town since our cats are high maintenance and two of them are older.”

About: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs all my life. I now have three cats of my own who live a very loving, lavish lifestyle. Your animals will receive the same care my animals do! I currently work in medical device sales at Grandview medical. My schedule can be unpredictable at times, but I often have a ton of downtime. Plenty of time for a dog walk, a check in on a cat or dog, or plenty of time to come home and give any animal attention staying at my own place! My three cats get wet food 3 times a day as well as dry food as they prefer it. They have set food schedules that I follows everyday. I know cats are very susceptible to dehydration, and I’m very conscious of this. I change water daily, clean food bowls daily, give each cat probiotics to help keep their guts healthy, and add extra water to their food. I take my cats yearly to the vet, as well as took one of my young cats to a specialist and paid whatever means necessary to make sure he was okay. I now give that cat of mine meds weekly, so I am familiar with having to give meds to pets. My cats are left with animal noises on the tv daily, plenty of toys, plenty of room to run. Litter boxes are cleaned 1-2 times daily. This will be standard of care for your pets!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maylene
I truly truly cannot recommend this amazing sweet woman enough. I was so anxious to leave them with a sitter. My cats are my whole world. And one has a history of urinary blocking and has had multiple surgeries and requires daily meds. So I was scared. But she immediately helped me feel secure in leaving them with her. She went above and beyond when she looked after my babies. She said she would take care of my boys like they were her own. And she did. My boys are picky with who they like. They just only like “good” people I think. One of my boys is extremely anxious around new people and more often than not, does not like new people at all. My boys loved her from the second they met her. I could tell by the first pics I got. They weren’t afraid of her or anxious. They felt safe I think. Great communication, great pictures so I can see they were happy and healthy, such a sweet and caring woman. I promise your pets will be safe and love with her. I have a sitter for life, as long as she is willing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Maylene is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 985 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Maylene. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maylene. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
