“This was our third time using this sitter, and we’ve always felt very comfortable leaving Buddy with them—but this time truly showed how exceptional they are. We had an unexpected emergency with Buddy involving a neurological issue, and they handled it calmly and professionally. They called me immediately, followed my instructions exactly, and kept me updated throughout, which really helped put me at ease during a very stressful situation. They are incredibly responsible, attentive, and reliable. I’m so grateful for the care they gave Buddy and the support they gave me. I highly recommend them and look forward to bringing Buddy back once he’s feeling better.”
“Karla was great with Cooper and Lulu. Lulu is uneasy around strangers because she is deaf, but Karla was patient and gained Lulu’s trust. Karla sent us lots of pictures so we could see what they were up to while in her care. We will definitely reach out to Karla when we need a sitter again.”
“Paola took great care of Louie while we were away. She sent daily updates and pics which we really appreciate. Louie feels very comfortable and love staying there. Thanks Paola!”
“I went away for 2 weeks and I needed someone to take care of my baby, ThoR! Andrew was such a caring and a professional pet sitter! He made sure that I was updated everyday about ThoR! He genuinely cares about the pets he takes care of! I will definitely book him again! With Andrew, you know your pets are in good hands!”
“incredible dog sitter! Puppies can be a handful, but he was so patient, gentle, and attentive throughout the entire stay. He handled the puppy energy effortlessly and kept me updated the whole time. I truly cannot recommend him enough and will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Sarah is amazing - we needed a last minute booking on a holiday weekend, she responded quickly and made sure to ask all the right questions to be prepared for whatever our pup needed. When we brought him for drop off, he took to her immediately! Sarah sent pictures and updates each day that made us feel so much better while being away. You could tell it was a vacation for him as well. Overall a great experience and would absolutely recommend Sarah!”
“My dog Simon had a wonderful time at Stephanie's home. We took a 7-day getaway, so we were nervous about how he would do. Stephanie kept us updated daily, which eased our worries, and she sent many pictures. Simon didn't miss love or hugs and felt at home. He also made friends with her dog. Thank you for caring for our Simon! 🤗”
“Beautifull took such great care of my older kitty, I could tell he enjoyed his stay and felt comfortable around her. From giving him his daily medication to dealing with his stubbornness, Beautifull was super patient with him ◡̈”
“We had a great experience with her! She was very responsive and sent us photos of my dog every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated that she took care of his medications as well. We’re very happy with the care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Tania is the best sitter I used ever. Respond in minutes and be very detailed on my pups' situations and updates. Sending pics and updates multiple times a day. And all my pups look very very happy back home. I can tell she doing this with all her love and not just seeing this as a work. I will 100% lock she as my sitter while I'm away. And would recommend others for sure.”
“Binta is great at communicating and taking care of all your pet’s needs. Leading up to my pets stay Binta was available for not only a meet and greet , but available for all my questions and concerns. This was my first time booking with not only Rover , but with a pet sitter . Leaving my puppy for 1 week scared me tremendously, but I was put at complete ease after communicating with Binta. She worked hard to stay on schedule with my pets walks and feeding times. She also kept him busy with park activities and socialization for my pup ! She kept me updated each day and was always available for communication! I would definitely rebook with Binta for future stays !”
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have also cared for other animals like turtles, frogs, rabbits, hamsters and birds. Growing up surrounded by pets sparked a lifelong passion for animal care, and I’ve been caring for them ever since. I used to run my own dog-sitting business in the neighborhood where I grew up. I cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention. It was a rewarding experience that helped me build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I’ve also cared for cats and other small animals, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in providing dependable, compassionate care as if they were my own. As a teacher, I have a consistent schedule that allows me to care for dogs before work, after work, and throughout the weekends. On weekdays, your dog will receive plenty of attention in the mornings and evenings, and if boarding with me, they’ll have the companionship of my friendly dog during the day. I’m also available for overnight stays, boarding on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, giving your pet plenty of love, exercise, and personalized care while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets become part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine by following feeding schedules, providing walks, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of companionship. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality and needs to ensure they receive the best possible care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Cheyenne took good care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was reliable, responsive, and everything went smoothly. We appreciated knowing our dog was in good hands while we were away. Thank you, Cheyenne!”
“This was the first time our 2 girls Juniper and Honey have ever stayed overnight anywhere since we rescued them 5 years ago. We felt confident having Carolina watching our girls. Prior to their stay we did a meet and greet. Carolina has a very calm demeanor, and we were very confident that the girls would be comfortable in her home. She sent us pictures and gave us updates of how they were doing, which was nice. When we picked them up they were very happy, so we'll definitely be using her services again.”

Andrew was excellent with my puppy. He is extremely experienced working with dogs and it showed when I brought home my pup. She boarded with Andrew and was very nervous/anxious at first, but she settled in just fine. Now my puppy is not as nervous so he set a good example for me to follow. Andrew sent plenty of videos so I didn't have any concern at all. 10/10 would recommend and book again.
Sarah was an awesome pet sitter to my German shepherd. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and her family member. I appreciated everything she did while I was away. Sarah was kind, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable about taking care of my dog. I have a large dog and they can be a challenge and she handled it with ease. I would highly recommend Sarah and I definitely will be using her in the future.
Xunzi is awesome as always! This was our first time boarding Bacon with her for three nights, and everything went great. She was very flexible with our 6:00 AM drop-off due to an early flight, which was a huge help! She also kept us updated on Bacon’s daily activities, and he had a great time staying with her. We really appreciate her care and flexibility and highly recommend her!
It is so grateful to meet Chulmin. My fur baby, Raon is very shy and spoiled; however, Chulmin takes care of him very very well. My boy looks so happy and comfort to stay. You do not need to worry about it at all. Chulmin keeps updating and sending pics and videos, so you could know how Raon is doing well. Thanks you so much. I will ask again!!!!!
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my little Zara! Sandra went above and beyond in every possible way, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. From daily photos and updates to thoughtful messages throughout the day, Sandra made sure I always knew how Zara was doing. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. What really stood out to me was how genuinely involved Sandra is with the dogs. She doesn’t just watch them—she interacts with them, pays attention to their individual needs, and treats them like her own. She even made sure Zara stayed warm when I completely forgot to pack her a jacket! It’s those little thoughtful gestures that make all the difference. And then there’s sweet Penelope! Zara is my little sassy girl who typically has absolutely no interest in socializing with other dogs, so imagine my surprise when she and Penelope got along so beautifully! I was genuinely amazed, and seeing their little friendship develop was such a treat. What touched me even more was that Sandra reached out after I picked Zara up just to tell me how much she missed her. That alone speaks volumes about the genuine love and connection she builds with the dogs in her care. Sandra is truly a gem, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. She made being away from Zara so much easier, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave my little girl with her again. Thank you, Sandra and Penelope, for loving and taking such wonderful care of my sassy little Zara! ❤️🐾
We had a great experience with her! She was very responsive and sent us photos of my dog every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated that she took care of his medications as well. We’re very happy with the care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Kevin was great!! I was definitely nervous about leaving Willow with someone new, but we met up at the dog park beforehand so (we) and our dogs could meet, and make sure they got along. They did, thankfully!! He was great with communication which made me feel better leaving her. She was happy when I picked her up and everything seemed to go well. I’d definitely book with Kevin and Bubbles again!
Catherine is the absolute best! She is super communicative, easy to reach, and I’ve had seamless booking experiences with her. She is also super understanding! I had flight delays that resulted in me needing a later pick up time at the last minute and she was super accommodating. My dog Jax loves her and Cashew. 10/10 recommend Catherine and I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!
Sherrie was wonderful! She’s excellent with routine. She asked all the right questions, followed all instructions, and is a true animal lover. We wanted a mature and responsible caregiver and after our meet & greet we were positive we found The One. After seeing Sherrie with her own sweet dog, we could tell how committed and wonderful she is as a pet owner. Thank you so much to Sherrie and her finance. ❤️ They made our trip worry free and we will book again.
We had a great experience all around with our booking with Lisa. Her accommodation to provide a safe and welcoming home for our dog was more than satisfactory! She is a professional. I am hyper vigilant when it comes to my dog, and Lisa addressed and reassured me of my every concern. There was an immediate connection between our dog, Lisa, and her family. I highly recommend Lisa for the excellent service that she provides!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Maywood can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Maywood home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Maywood.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maywood. On Rover:
- 84% 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.
You and your Maywood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
