“It was amazing that Noah was able to accept our booking a week before our event. He was extremely communicative and sent tons of pictures with updates! I was able to be away from my doggies in peace and I came home to the happiest boys! Thank you Noah!!”
“Rachel took amazingly great care of my dogs over the 4th of July weekend. She checked in frequently and responded quickly to questions. She made sure they were comfortable and well cared for during the whole stay. She ensured they got plenty of outside time and was very careful about making sure they were all medicated and in the house before any of our neighbors lit off their fireworks. She always takes such great care of our three pups and we’re so glad we found her! She also takes great care of the house as - kept everything super clean and tidy. We will always have Rachel as our sitter whenever possible for going out of town. The peace of mind she provides is priceless and I always know my dogs are safe and in good hands.”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog Rosie. She sent me pictures and videos every day of their adventures together. She also left my home immaculate. Samantha is a very pleasant and caring young woman. She is by far the best pet sitter I have ever used.”
“Sarah was a great sitter for my high energy cattle dog. My dog also has separation anxiety and can’t be left alone for longer than 3 hrs at a time, it was great she was able to stay with him at my house the entire sit so he wouldn’t get lonely. She had Great communication and sent me pictures. I would book her house sitting service again!”
“Olivia and Tyler were very friendly and communicative. They took great care of Callie during our vacation! The frequent photo updates gave us peace of mind the whole time.”
About: I have loved caring for animals since I was about 10 years old! I used to walk my neighbors’ dogs and give them baths, which helped me gain experience caring for different dogs. I also have a Doberman that I raised from a puppy and helped become very well-behaved. Raising him has taught me patience, consistency, and how important it is to understand each dog’s personality and needs. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and the love I have for animals. I will treat your pets like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! 🐾❤️ Writing I work part-time, usually no more than five hours a day for about three days a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have school on Tuesdays from 12:40 to 3:30 p.m., but outside of those commitments, my schedule is pretty flexible. I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, baths, and giving your pets lots of love and attention. I want to make sure your pets get the care they need while you're away! Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for pets. I always want animals to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. In a client's home, I would follow their instructions carefully, stick to the pet's normal routine, keep their space clean, and make sure they have fresh water, food, and plenty of attention. I would always be careful with doors, gates, and leashes to keep pets safe. I also understand that every animal is different, so I would take the time to learn their personality and needs. I would treat your home with respect and care for your pets as if they were my own!
“Tananda was great with our two dogs. Sent photos of our cute babies, and when we got home the dogs seemed very happy. I would highly recommend Tananda to anyone needing a dog sitter. You can tell she truly cares for your pets, and made sure they got all the attention they needed. Thank you so much for helping us out on such short notice. Look forward to our next time”
“I was looking for someone who could give my cat his medicine and keep an eye on him incase he was in need of anything. Jenna was awesome and I can't wait to have her come cat sit again. Thank you Jenna!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats, I have 2 cats as well! While I was in college my roommates had dogs that I would watch when they would leave or couldn’t come home in time. I’m good with both both cats and dogs. Im currently working part time, I don’t think pet sitting is a job it’s so fun to do so I would love it as a side job. I’m also getting my masters in biomedical sciences right now My pets have access to every inch of the house and are well cared for, toys, scratch post and many treats! I love playing with them, taking them outside, feeding and can also clean litter boxes
“Simonne did great watching my dog, June! June is nervous around new people but Simonne was patient and gentle with her. She sent lots of pictures during her stay which I loved. I plan to keep using Simonne!”
“Naina was great with my 2 pups, and very cognizant of my space. I returned to happy pups and a house in perfect order. Their communication was great, and I got plenty of updates and cute photos that let me miss my goobers even more.”
“Vita was so kind and easy to work with and was AMAZING with Catorri ❤️ She sent pics and videos and stayed in touch letting me know my pup was well cared for. I will def use her again! Highly recommend!”
About: I've worked at a doggy daycare for a year as an unpaid intern and then Petco for a year and a half. While nannying I also pet sat for more than 2 years. I've worked with puppies, senior dogs, large, and small. Every dog has it's quirks and I enjoy them all. If there is ever a problem I will reach out to you I don't wing it when it comes to your family. I've owned a dog since I was 8 and now two kitties 😻 and a miniature Schnauzer full of mischief 🐕 and a sweet old Rat 🐀 They all deserve love and care, each with their own needs, all of them precious 💕 If your pet needs constant attention or personal space I am capable of providing both. Feeding, walking, and dog parks are all in my wheelhouse. I have a pup of my own that loves the dog park, if your dog is good with little guys then he'll certainly tucker yours out 😂
“Veronica did a great job of taking care of our cats. She sent us daily updates and communicated very well and always asked questions if she wasn't sure or needed more clarification. She spent extra one on one time with our newly adopted somewhat feral kitty working on getting her more socialized.”
“Erica saved me when a previous housesitter had to cancel last minute due to a family emergency. Lots of pictures, communicated regularly, and clearly loved on Eva while I was gone.”
About: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.
“Appreciated Laurin very much, she sent pics and updates which are great for a nervous mom like me. She left a handwritten note as a thank you and even ran the vacuum before she left, a kind gesture for a weary traveler to arrive home to a clean house.”
“Adam was absolutely phenomenal, and I’ll definitely leverage him again! My senior cat has a lot of special needs with her care, meds, and attention received - Adam exceeded expectations with her and gave lots of updates along the way. I received multiple updates each day with pictures, and it was clear my fur baby was thoroughly pleased under his care. He didn’t miss any of her medications, and was patient with her in her sassy moments. I also came home to my home being in the same condition in which I left it, nice and clean! If you’re looking for an attentive, caring sitter for your cat - you’re in great hands with Adam! Your cat will be in love with him!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Maytown is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $38 per night.

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 Maytown 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 Maytown 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 Maytown 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
