“I had such an amazing experience having my Luna cared for over the weekend by Audry! From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Communication was wonderful, and I really appreciated all the photos and updates throughout her care. It made being away from her so much easier knowing I could see how she was doing and that she was happy and comfortable. Overall, it was such a great experience from start to finish. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Luna received, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets. I’ll definitely be booking with Audry again in the future! 🐾”
“Taylor did an amazing job watching my dog Bugsy. She was on time, followed instructions, kept me updated on how my dog was doing and was instantly a best friend and safe person for my anxious dog. I can’t wait to have Taylor watch Bugsy again :)”
“Brenna was great! She watched my two big dogs at my house and did an awesome job. I received lots of updates and photos, and she was very patient with my dogs who didn’t want to go outside to potty during the recent rainstorms. My home was just as clean and tidy as when i left! I would definitely have her dog and house sit again. Thanks, Brenna!”

About: I love spending time with animals, and I have 3 fur children of my own . Gilbert , khaleesi and Tokyo! When your fur baby is in my care , their safety and comfort is my top priority. I am open for walks , drop ins and sittings (no overnight stays) During sitting I can offer extended visits and arrive early, I know how to administer medication since my own pup takes a medication 2x a day I offer services on the other app😬 and am now looking to expand on this platform. I have been providing walks, drop ins, and sittings for 3 years now :) As a case manager, I work from home most mornings and have field visits in the afternoons where I’m usually away from home between 3p-7p but I have the flexibility to work from home some days as well. I’m free on weekends☺️ During sittings I can work anywhere so long as I have WiFi ! My pets have a routine, and I know how important it is to keep up with so I have this in mind while I care for others babies 😊 I have a reactive dog , and I know how to safely keep doggies away from others and how to avoid stress.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid – we always had family animals, and I grew up feeding, walking, and bathing them. I had a Golden Retriever and a 6 years old cat so I’m used to high‑energy pups and know how to keep them happy, safe, and well‑exercised. You’ll get daily photo updates, so you can relax while you’re away. I can easily fit in walks or drop‑in visits anytime during the day, evening, or weekends. I’m available Monday through Friday from morning to night, and fully open on Saturdays and Sundays. If your pets needs extra attention (e.g., after surgery or just separation anxiety), I can even be home full‑time for a day – just let me know in advance. When I care for your pets in your home, I always start with a safety check – making sure doors, windows, and gates are secure, and removing any hazards like toxic plants or small objects. I’ll follow your feeding and guidelines precisely, and I always ask about things to look for ahead of time. You’ll get daily photo updates and a quick message after each visit – so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and happy.
“Highly recommend. Was available in very short notice for dog sitting. Constant communication the entire time. Took very good care of our Frenchie. Will definitely be booking her again.”
“Olivia is the best dog sitter in town! Truly a gem! We were so blessed to have Olivia care for our Teddy while away on a 6 day vacation to Hawaii. She was always available and provided all of Teddy’s needs. I can’t express my gratitude with just words. She went above and beyond caring for our Teddy while away. Teddy has found a new best friend in Olivia. My trip was care free because I left my pup in good hands. Theres nothing better than to have peace of mind that my Teddy was being fed, walked and played with daily. I recommend Olivia for your furry friend. You will not be disappointed. Thanks again Olivia! 🐶”
“Ivy was wonderful and understanding to my Lola, who is generally nervous around new people. Lola is not the easiest dog, but it made me so glad to see that she and Ivy became good friends. I would be happy to book with Ivy again.”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was 13. Friends and family rely on me to feed, walk, and play with them. I enjoy training them tricks, and they enjoy cuddling, scratches, and rubs! I have some free days to head to the park for walks and exercise. I'm Available mornings to evenings for fun adventures with your pups! I have a fenced home with lots of space to run around, and I can easily bring your Doggos inside or let them out in the backyard. I also know of the best parks to visit with them for walks.
“We are the obsessed dog owners with a senior dog - Soren - who’s really been struggling this year. Sarah is the only sitter we trust and she’s been flexible and supportive - plus gentle and thoughtful with Soren. We have meds, a strict schedule, and she’s diligent and dependable. She’s helped us have a bit more of a life again and we went on vacation - she handled him for a week and was communicative the whole time!”
About: Hi, I’m Kiarra — a reliable, detail-oriented dog sitter providing calm, structured, in-home care. What sets me apart is my attentiveness and communication. I am open to any kind of care your fur babies need. I follow care instructions precisely, maintain established routines, especially medication schedules and provide thoughtful updates so you always feel informed and at ease. As a remote business owner, I have the flexibility to be present and provide so much more than drop-ins and walks by offering consistent companionship and supervision. I understand that your dog isn’t just a pet — they’re family. My goal is to keep them mentally engaged, physically exercised, and emotionally secure while you’re away, so you return to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a peaceful home. One of the biggest advantages I offer is open and flexible availability. As a remote business owner, I work from home, which allows me to be highly present and attentive throughout the day. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches — they’ll have consistent companionship, supervision, and engagement. This flexibility also allows me to adapt to their established routines, whether that means midday walks, medication timing, enrichment play, or simply being a calming presence in the home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my approach is structured, respectful, and detail-oriented. I follow all care instructions precisely — from feeding schedules and exercise routines to litter maintenance and medication administration. I maintain a clean, organized environment and treat every space with discretion and care. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Kayla was professional, prompt, and courteous. She stayed in our home four nights taking care of our 10 week old Lab puppy. Not an easy assignment. Kayla followed his busy schedule and took amazing care of him. We would be thrilled to use her again!”
About: Well what I can said. I'm a really outgoing person who likes the outdoors, I enjoy long walks I like to hike, the beach. I like to explore new things. As a new mother I like to take care of details and I go beyond any expectations. I can bathe the dog if it it ok with any person. My house is really small but I know that every dog would feel comfortable staying here. I can feed them any medication if they need any. Over all about my self I really outgoing person that likes to get along with others I'm fun, silly, happy, and I'm also a grown woman with a mind of a child that would love any activity. Please feel free to get to know me. I'm a stay home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of any dog. And play with them. And give them attention. I have a small fenced yard. Where the dog can run around without any inconvenience. And I will also take them for a walk to the park.
“Anna was a fabulous sitter to my two cats! She was incredibly communicative throughout the stay and it is clear she is a genuinely caring and considerate person. My cats loved her! Her communication and care gave me peace of mind while traveling for the first time after adopting a new kitten. My home was in excellent condition upon my return as well. Would happily book with her again in the future!”
“Latte loved Jenny. I arrived home and was greeted by a happy, affectionate, playful cat. My holiday was enhanced by a steady stream of creative kitty pix and videos. Jenny is a gem. Natural grace. A true cat whisperer and animal lover.”

Audry stayed for two nights looking after our two cats! She was very communicative, attentive and just an overall great person! We loved having her stay and felt at ease that our cats were very well looked after. We will definitely be using her again and I can't recommend her enough for your pets!
Megan is absolutely wonderful! My timid cat was instantly smitten with her. He usually hides. It's truly heartwarming to see them bond so quickly. She has such a special way with animals, creating a safe and loving environment. I highly recommend her services to any pet parent.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Maywood is $49 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $49 and $49 per night. 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.

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 Maywood 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 Maywood 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Maywood 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.

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.
