“Samantha was a great addition to me leaving my pups for a vacation and not having extra anxiety!!! The dogs seemed to love her company and were able to get their potty break during the day without holding it too long. She was patient and very detailed with her updates and pictures during each one of her visits!!! Thanks so much!!!”
“Paulina was very accommodating and patient with our fearful dog. She allowed us to go on our camping trip with the peace of mind that Milo was taken care of. She was very easy to communicate with and sent us frequent updates.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, they’ve always held a special place in my heart. From dogs and cats to horses and more, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply enjoys calm company, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own fur babies! As a licensed esthetician, I create my own schedule & have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine, making scheduling stress free for both of us. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving, capable hands. Pet care has always been a natural part of my day to day routine because I’ve grown up around animals & have cared for pets for majority of my life. I work part time as an esthetician, meaning I can create my own schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, visits, & overnight stays! The pet’s safety, comfort, & routine would be my highest priorities. I like to take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, etc so they feel secure and cared for. I have experience being around cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every animal has different comfort zones and boundaries. Whether your pet is shy, playful, independent, or needs extra patience, I always respect their pace. I’ll l keep your home clean, follow your instructions carefully, & provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family members are doing.🐾
About: I’ve been around and caring for animals for as long as I can remember, with 15 years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has their own needs, routines, and quirks. Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping your pup company, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I take pet care seriously and want every owner to feel comfortable knowing their furry family member is in good hands! My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s needs! Need someone to stay overnight or even for a few days? I’m your person! Planning a vacation or an extended trip? Don’t worry, I’d love to help keep your furry family member happy and comfortable while you’re away. Just need someone to stop by, check in, or take your pup for a walk? I’d be more than happy to help with that, too! Whether you need a one-time visit or ongoing care, I’m here to make your life a little easier and your pet’s day a little brighter. 🐾 I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stick to their familiar routines, so I do my best to make every visit feel as stress-free as possible. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick visit, taking your dog on a walk, or staying overnight while you’re away, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and bedtime routines. I also understand how important it is to trust someone in your home, and I will always treat your space with respect and keep things clean and tidy. I love sending updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to give your pet the same love and attention I’d want someone to give my own!
About: Family and friends have relied on me to look after their furry babies for a couple of years now. Drop-ins, dog sitting, dog walking, and cat sitting. Current cat and dog owner. As a pet owner for quite literally my entire life, I can confidently say your fur babies are in good hands. I work in healthcare on a rotating schedule, so it’s kind of difficult to set days and times. Feel free to reach out and we can discuss what you need, which days, and times. I do my best to accommodate you and your baby. Whatever instruction is given to me I will follow in order to keep pets happy and comfortable as well as owners. Keeping pets happy and comfortable is the motive.
About: After caring for my own dogs as well as others, I understand the different personalities and routines that come with each! My goal is to make sure your pup feels loved and understood. I am especially familiar with rescue dogs who may need a little extra reassurance and love, as I have one at home. I can accommodate to your pup, and am notably familiar with the needs of senior pups! I will be as patient as needed and treat every dog like my own! I am a certified flight instructor currently applying for jobs! I would love to use my free time as a chance to get to connect with your pup! I offer dog walking and in home check ins. My days are pretty open in the mornings-late afternoon, so any opportunity I get to spend with a furry friend is a good one! I unfortunately do not offer pups in my home but take that as an opportunity to fit into your dog’s schedule, not the other way around. Being aware I am the one coming into their space is very important to me. I will make it my goal to learn everything needed about your pups routine and personality to make them as comfortable as possible
About: Experience with all kinds of pets and reptiles. Will be treated with upmost care.

“Ashlee came to watch my cat Norby for the third time and I couldn’t be more thankful for her help. Leaving my cat is always hard but she makes everything so much easier and my cat loves her!”
About: I am at home full time so I am available to always keep a close watch of your dog, take your dog outside a numerous of times. I have been sitting dogs for about 4 years now. I have experience breeding and raising chows (which is a very hard breed to raise especially for first time dog owners). There is a dog park right across the street from my home your dog would love. And around the perimeter of the dog park is a dog path. I normally walk the dogs around the dog path and then play fetch and some other games in the park. I have a gated backyard so they are allow to play back there as well. I am close to a Walgreens and across the street from a pet store so if they need anything I have easy access to that.
About: I've had dogs my entire life. I have a senior dog of 14 years old, an adult dog of 3 years old, and a puppy of 8 months old. I truly I can't imagine my life without them. It's a challenging but beautiful experience to see them grow up. I am currently a college student athlete. I am mostly free in the mornings after 10am until 2pm or 3pm, when my volleyball practices start. I do not offer my home, however, I'd care for the pets that I am working with using the equipment that my clients offer me. I own a car.
About: I have had and taken care of pets my entire life. I grew up in a rural area, so am comfortable with all sorts of animals, from dogs and cats to livestock, chickens, or even lizards! I am comfortable caring for, walking, administering medications, and wound management for any type of dog or cat. I am currently studying for a medical school exam, so my schedule is flexible and play dates with animals are my favorite type of study break! I do not offer boarding but I am available for walks, drop-ins, and overnights. While I do not provide care in my home, I am comfortable following any safety guidelines that you request I use in your home or while out walking your pet.
About: I recently graduated from Northern Michigan University this past spring with a bachelors degree in Education. Before pursuing my career, I am taking time off to work and spend time with family. I am a lover of all animals, though I have the most experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with several families for drop by visits and extended stays while they travel. I have a fur baby of my own, my cat Ringo, who I love very much. I have several references available for back ground check and to hear from prior families I have worked with for feedback if desired! I would love to work with you and your pets!

About: Hello! My name is Sydney and I am a social worker with a passion for helping others and loving animals! 🐾 My family has 2 beautiful dogs, Kaia (cane corso), and Ponyboy (pitbull) as well as a feisty cat, Penny. Since we have got them, I spend any time at home hanging and helping take care of them! When I take care of your pets, I put their needs first and will always give them my undivided and loving attention as if they are my own! *note: I am not offering services in my home at this time. I also have experience with administering medicine. I work around school hours during weekdays, which is good for after work walks/checkins. I am typically free on the weekends, but please check with me first before booking! I am always respectful of your ground rules and will follow them religiously. I will give your pets all the attention they need and care for them like one of my own! PSA: I do deny walks if it is dark out in an area I am not comfortable with, but will accept drop in visits!
“Edgar was easy to work with and very attentive to my cat. My cat is a senior and I mix meds into her breakfast plate. He was able to accommodate her schedule. I would not hesitate to have him take care of her the next time I need a cat sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I feel as though lots of people want dogs but don’t care to learn how to properly take care of them so, I go above and beyond to take care of the dogs I am able to take care of within my power. I would like to have a meet and greet before I take on any assignments. I am a TA for Oak Park 97 school district. I love animals; especially dogs. I have a degree in Zoology and seek a career working with animals. I usually am free after 3:30 pm Monday through Friday and have open availability most weekends. I try to respond to messages as soon as possible and will work to accommodate your pets needs as best as I can. I make sure that my client’s pet’s feel safe as possible when they’re with me. While walking, I won’t let the client’s dog interact with other people or dogs because you never know how dogs will react with strangers or other dogs. That is unless the owner gives me permission to do so. If feeding is required I will make sure that the dog gets the appropriate amount of food for their breed or per the owner’s instructions. If need be I will also play with the dog and make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise that they need.
“Cheryl was great with our dog Luna. She came to meet with her a week before and answered our questions. On the day of the visit Cheryl was great and provided us an update and pictures and Luna clearly had a great time.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maywood
Paulina was wonderful\! This was our first experience using Rover, and she made it a great one. She was incredibly patient and understanding with my very timid boy, whose bark can be very loud. 🐾 She took her time and allowed him to get comfortable at his own pace, which I truly appreciated. It’s such a relief to find someone who understands that some pups just need a little extra patience. Thank you, Paulina!
Julie was AMAZING. Over the years we have had a few different sitters for our past and now present kitties. I would say that Julie was the BEST. She even brought some new toys for the cats to play with because she noticed they weren't enjoying their old ones. She was very diligent about the cleanliness of the litter boxes and the area around them were very clean upon our return. Julie gave us important updates and photos while we were gone and was available if anything came up. Don't hesitate to hire her if you need someone to look after your babies while you are away.
Needed a cat sitter somewhat last minute for a foster cat I'm taking care of. Our foster is still very skiddish around new people but Samantha did a great job and always found her little hiding spots. She was also super accommodating when I asked to adjust the number of drop-ins for the last half of the booking.
This was my first time leaving my two recently-adopted cats home alone, and it was such a relief to know Jessica was checking in on them. She was so communicative and made sure to send pictures (even when my girls were being shy and hiding). I would absolutely recommend her services, and I would book with her again in a heartbeat the next time I need a sitter! Thank you, Jessica :)
Melanie was wonderful with our cat Mino, who is very shy with strangers. She gave him space when he needed it and kept us updated every day with detailed messages. By the end of the stay, they had become good friends, which is a big deal for him! We’d absolutely book her again.
Heather was the best pet sitter we have ever had. Thank you. She was excellent at communication, and our cats loved her. Our 2 cats have been shy around previous sitters, but they were not with Heather. That's so important when you are away from your pets to know that they are getting the attention they need.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Maywood is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $33 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 12,738 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Maywood. 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 Maywood. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
