“Elliyah rose to every challenge my dog presented her and was super communicative along the way. You can tell she loves all animals and is a wonderful, trustworthy person. Thank you Elliyah, so much!”
About: 🎃PB & Pumpkin Treats Available🎃 Former dog owner of 18 years, with previous experience caring for multiple sized breeds in home and for walks since I was young. Founder and owner of Berry&Co Treatery. I use to make and sell healthy dog treats when I lived in NM for 2 years. ❤️Quality over quantity, your dog will always be my priority. I tend to accept one family's pets at a time. This provides a calm, low-stress environment so your dog feels safe. They are family here❤️ Usually open availability, if there are any scheduling issues I will be sure to let you know in advance and try to work something out. Please do not hesitate to ask! When first meeting your pet I take care to respect their boundaries and build trust with them. You will receive text and photo updates during the visit or walk always!
“We are happy and satisfied with the three days that Keka has been house-sitting our pawlove Hazel. Sure they had quality time playing around the house and outside during their walk. On top of that she got to provide Hazel with some Training that she needed. We appreciate so much the time she spent with our Hazel. We will surely recommend her to our other paw parent friends and surely it won't be the last for Keka & Hazel.”
“Jalisa was very professional throughout her time housesitting for our 2 small doggies. She sent picture updates and made sure we were comfortable our babies were safe while we were away, would highly recommend!!”
About: I have been caring for dogs since 2020, with experience providing dog sitting, overnight care, and boarding for friends, family, neighbors, and Rover clients. I have cared for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! I enjoy spending time outdoors, making plenty of time for walks, playtime, and quality time with pets. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine and needs! I treat every pet like my own! I carefully follow their routine and any instructions from their owner while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their home. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I've grown up around MANY cats and a dog most of my life. I’ve also helped out my family and friends were taking care of their fur babies when they’re on vacation. I currently work a 9 to 5 but I am available before or after that time. I can also stop by in the middle of the day. I’m also completely free on weekends! I live alone now, but I grew up living with anywhere from 3 to 9 cats, 1 dog, 2 birds who are rescues that (as you can imagine) have very different personalities. We had a set routine for them which I believe gave them enough stability and consistency to let them flourish and be comfortable in the spaces we shared. My family and I made it a priority to keep our cats healthy, happy, and well taken care of.
“Alexander did a great job caring for my two elderly pets. He made sure my cat got his medicine and my dog went out frequently and ate his food. He was very communicative and responded quickly. Overall, I’m very satisfied and will definitely use him again if needed.”
“Eric was an amazing sitter for Luna! We received daily updates of videos and pictures. It was the first time she wasn’t being taken care of by immediate family. Our girl is a fussy little eater but Eric was generously patient with our feeding requirement which needed boiled chicken on the daily. He walked and gave her all the play time she wanted. She got even more spoiled! He even ran out and got her extra Greenies and wet food when her supply ran out! We will definitely be asking Eric to watch her again when we can’t bring her with us. What a relief all around that we found such a great sitter!!”
About: I learned my love of Dog's in my adult life. We got out first family dog and I instantly felt that connection. Through my first dog I learned not alone the love they provide but also the love they are given by a family. They truly are a part of the family. I think my biggest skill is being a father, husband and a dog owner and these traits have given me a big heart for caring for a precious family member for others. I work from home and can provide care weekday, daytime and early evenings. I love to be active and also would take my dog along with us if agreed upon with the owners first. I love to get fresh air and let dogs enjoy it as well. I take into full consideration any walking tips as well, I prefer no other dog interactions along our walks and truly would care for yours as I do my own. I have a fenced backyard, and can care as well in my home on the first floor only with gates to prevent going up any stairs.
“Jackson was absolutely fantastic as a sitter for Rufus. Incredibly polite, a calm and kind demeanour and really communicative - Jackson sent us some updates whilst we were away to show how Rufus was getting on. We would thoroughly recommend Jackson for dog sitting - he is very knowledgeable about dogs and Rufus definitely relaxed in his company. Jackson is extremely trustworthy too and thoughtful - he asked plenty of additional questions about what Rufus likes and dislikes. Thank you Jackson we will definitely use you again to look after Rufus!”
“Cheyenne was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and we felt so comfortable knowing he was in her care. He can be a bit of a handful at times, and Cheyenne handled everything with so much patience and understanding. We are so happy we found her and truly grateful for the care she gave him. We would absolutely book with Cheyenne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, dependable, and caring sitter. Thank you so much, Cheyenne!”
About: As a dedicated dog owner since 2020 and a current medical student with flexible hours, I bring a high level of responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine compassion to pet care. Having managed my own dog’s health, routines, and daily needs for years, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to look after your furry family members. I always prioritize your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness, which is why I only prefer walking or sitting one dog at a time! Whether they need a high-energy walk to burn off steam or gentle companionship while you are away, your pets will be in safe, loving hands. My routine with school allows me to be flexible with midday walks, feeding schedules, and play sessions, ensuring your pups get all the attention and exercise they need right when they need it. While I prefer bookings ahead of time, I can do my best to accommodate last minute walks/care! Your dog’s safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I do not overlap bookings to provide undivided attention and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and vigilance I would give my own pet. I am careful with secure leash handling, attentive to environmental hazards, and strictly follow any dietary, medication, or behavioral guidelines you provide. You can count on reliable communication, prompt updates, and peace of mind while you're away.
About: With six years of dedicated dog-sitting and pet-care experience, along with my passion for rescuing and caring for dogs, I bring genuine love and attention to every furry friend I welcome into my home. Whether it’s patiently helping puppies settle in or giving extra love and comfort to senior dogs, I’m committed to making every pup feel safe, happy, and cared for. Bonus 🌟: I also prepare a fresh homemade snack of boiled chicken, sweet potatoes, rice, and veggies, lightly seasoned with turmeric and dog-friendly herbs. 🐶❤️ And yes there’s a fully fenced yard with a dog door, so your pup can enjoy plenty of outdoor time and a little taste of true American 🇺🇸 freedom 😉 during their stay! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, aligning perfectly with my 24x7 at home availability. This ensures that each furry friend receives the time, attention, and affection they deserve, enriching both their lives and mine. In my home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with regular walks, playtime, and feeding according to their schedule. Plenty of affection is always provided. When caring for pets in my client's home, I closely follow their pet's routine, provide companionship, administer any necessary medications, and keep the home tidy. My goal is to offer personalized care and attention to each pet, whether in my home or theirs, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Bonus: I have a fenced backyard with ample sunlight!
“I had Arin watch my dog & cats for a few days while I was gone and she was so great! I met up with her prior to leaving and I immediately felt comfortable with her and trusted her to take good care of my pets/ be in the house. She was super sweet and my dog took to her right away. She sent me daily updates and pictures and I felt completely comfortable while I was away. Would definitely rebook :) thank you Arin!”
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I've learned that great pet care goes beyond feeding and walking. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and little quirks, and I take the time to understand what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand that they sometimes need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it's shorter, gentler walks, keeping an eye on their mobility, following medication schedules, or simply providing a comfortable place to rest, I make sure their individual needs are never overlooked. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like family. You can expect plenty of affection, companionship, playtime, and attention to their usual routines. I also love keeping pet parents involved, so expect regular photos, updates, and little glimpses of your pet's day. I want you to feel just as comfortable leaving them with me as they do staying with me! I do my best to keep my schedule flexible around the pets in my care. I believe pets feel most comfortable when they can maintain their familiar routines, so I prioritize their regular feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules, and rest. I make sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay, while also respecting their need for quiet time and space. My goal is to make their time away from home feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, even when their family is away. Before each stay, I take the time to learn about your pet's personality, daily routine, preferences, and any special care instructions. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, especially when caring for senior pets who may need additional supervision or a gentler approach. I never believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or simply enjoys lounging around, I'll respect their individual needs and let them settle in at their own pace. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet's comfort. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.
About: Unlike your run-of-the-mill pet sitters, I do less sitting and more jogging, playing, fetching, obstacle course running and jumping type of activities. Additionally, I've got a backyard that's practically a dog's paradise—a sprawling ranch-style haven where pups can frolic, play fetch, and bask in the glory of nature. No concrete jungle for my furry friends; just endless green grass, shady trees, and all the tail-wagging space they could dream of! Got a high-energy pup? I specialize in exhilarating workouts that combine jogging, jumping, obstacle courses, and more. Your furry friend will be thrilled and tuckered out, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. Let's make their day unforgettable! With almost two decades of experience, I’ve seen and cared for pets of all shapes and sizes. From tiny kittens to giant breeds, I’ve got the know-how to ensure they feel right at home and receive the love and attention they deserve. And while you’re away, I’ll make sure to send you updates and photos along with videos of your furry friends 3-4 times a day, so you can rest easy knowing they’re in good hands. Plus, if your pet needs some extra training, count me in—I love helping them learn new tricks and behaviors. Not only do I provide top-notch pet sitting services, but I also offer convenient pick-up, transportation, and drop-off within a 50-mile radius, making the process stress-free for you and your pets. And if you have any questions or concerns, I’m always just a phone call or virtual Zoom meeting away. With me, your pets are not just taken care of—they’re cherished like family. Working mostly from home gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time to your pets. Last minute reservations and requests are welcome. The day kicks off with a brisk walk or a jog around the neighborhood, followed by a customized breakfast (we aim to please!). Then it's time for your furry friend to soak up some rays on our fenced, open-air patio or catch some Z's in a cozy spot. Afternoon? It's all about backyard shenanigans—think ball-chasing, stick-fetching, and maybe even a friendly squirrel hunt. And as the sun sets, we cap things off with a leisurely evening stroll through the neighborhood. Weekends? Oh, they're reserved for epic hikes on scenic trails—because adventure awaits! With us, your beloved companion is guaranteed a tail-wagging good time, no dull moments allowed! Nestled in a cozy house with a sprawling and spacious backyard where your furry pals can stretch their legs, play, and enjoy the great outdoors of fresh air to their heart's content.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maywood
Lia was great with my little senior Velcro baby. I appreciate that she came to meet us a couple days before the sitting to make sure we were both comfortable with her. She was accommodating and patient with his little boujee habits 😂 and sent me updates/pictures throughout the stay. Overall happy with the care she provided him and we have already rebooked. Thank you Lia!
Alexandra was amazing with our dog, Otis. She provided constant care for him, and gave us many updates while we were away. She was also very responsive, answering me immediately whenever I reached out. She was able to bond with Otis very quickly. She worked with him, gave him patience, and easily adapted to changes in his routine/diet. We came home to a happy and exceptionally cared for dog. :) We would work with Alexandra again in a heartbeat!
Ori watched our dog April for 4 days and he was amazing! He was very communicative and took such good care of April and the house while we were away. From daily walks to spending time outside and cuddling on the couch, we knew our energetic girl was in the best hands. Thank you Ori!!
Rachel was again amazing watching our Indie! She is so communicative and sends the best pupdates. She is so thoughtful and caring for both Indie and our home. She not only followed all of our detailed instructions perfectly, but she also improved on them for Indie’s benefit. We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with Rachel knowing he would be loved and cared for. Rachel left our home in impecable shape. She is very thoughtful and caring and a real dog lover. I can’t recommend her enough.
Jacob was amazing! From the first moment he established a great rapport with our 5 year old Golden Retriever Maximus and treated him with kindness and love. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for throughout the entire stay. We received regular updates, photos, and excellent communication, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It’s obvious he genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came home to a healthy, happy pup, and we booked the next house sit right away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter.
Maddie was by far the best dog sitter. I have two golden retrievers that love to run, play fetch and go on hikes. She did all of the above and more. she sent me pictures, took the dogs hiking at the reservation, they went on 2 mile walks, played fetch and were very well taken care of. She is kind, respectful, communicative, and truly loved our fur babies. I highly recommend her. I will definitely hire her when we travel. I cannot thank her enough!! 🩷🦴🐾🦮
Lolla was amazing and took great care of Benson. He needs meds and has high anxiety and she did a wonderful job of making sure he was comfortable and looked after. She also handled my pet parent panic and anxiety incredibly! Would strongly recommend her to take great care of your pup!!
Great experience! Communication was easy and consistent, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in her care. She went above and beyond — Rocket is currently going through a hard time and she cooked fresh meals for Rocket every day and was able to get him to eat without vomiting, which has been a big challenge for him. She was also wonderful with Luna and made sure both of them were well cared for. I really appreciated the updates and photos while I was away. They were clearly happy and comfortable. I would definitely book again and highly recommend her! 🐾
Hillary was absolutely amazing with our 17-year-old senior dog. Caring for an extremely elderly dog is not easy. It takes patience, experience, and compassion. Hillary went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We had total peace of mind knowing that our dog was in such loving and capable hands. I can’t recommend her enough.
Nicole is the most caring, kind, respectful, and sweet dog sitter ever. She sends photos of the dogs and communicates all day! She makes it so much easier to leave our 2 mini dachshund puppies at home while we are at work knowing we have an amazing person taking care of them. Nicole goes above and beyond to provide the best care to our babies and we will absolutely be using her again for dog/ house sitting. She is the very best of the best!

FAQs for House Sitting - Maywood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Maywood is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $77 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.
As of November 2026, there are 19,062 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Maywood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 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 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.
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 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.
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
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
