“Christina is wonderful. I have used her for drop-in visits several times now. A few of those times have popped up pretty unexpectedly, and without much notice, and she has always been able to say yes when that has happened. I highly recommend her.”
About: I have over 10 years of pet care experience, including caring for my Labrador for over 10 years. I loved taking care of him, playing with him, walking him, and giving him lots of love. I’m responsible, caring, and attentive to every pet’s needs. My schedule works for the following dates and times: *Monday–Friday: 6:00 PM–9:00 PM * Saturday: 7:00–11:00 AM and 4:00–5:30 PM * Sunday: 7:00–11:00 AM Thank you Your pets will be treated like family! I’ve had dogs all my life and truly love caring for them. I enjoy playing with them, feeding them, taking them for walks, and giving them lots of love and attention. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and will make sure your dog or cat feels safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care.
About: I've had many pets in my life, I've raised 3 dogs and have two cats. I've given basic training to my cats and given senior care to many a dog. I'm in school virtually so I have a lot of flexibility within my schedule and am open to traveling for services. Owning cats also allows me to be free in case of emergencies (they are really understanding). My railroad style apartment was decorated with two frisky kittens in mind so my place is pretty tamper proof. It's easy to isolate them from the rest of the space when (or if) introducing guests and easy to navigate for them with adequate space for play/sleep/snacking or whatever their little hearts desire.
About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pet. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m located in the Rochelle Park/Paramus area and already spend a lot of my day caring for and walking my own dog. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, and energy level. I may also be available for boarding depending on your dog’s comfort level and whether it’s a good fit with my home environment. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. My schedule mainly revolves around occasional work meetings, and outside of those I can adjust my day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and other needs. I’m available throughout the week and can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s normal routine. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow the routine and instructions you provide as closely as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and needs while building trust with them over time. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or pet sitting, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like I would want someone to treat my own dog.
“I found that Chloe communicates well, follows instructions, has a good demeanor with my dog and seems sincerely interested in providing him with the best possible care.”
“Alexandra was great all around!! She did multiple drop-ins a day and took great care of my senior dog and cat. She was prompt, reliable, friendly and communicated very well & always took a lot of pictures which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Alexandra!”
“Diana and Andrew are absolutely wonderful! We have used them twice so far and they are very responsive and send pictures during their deop in. We reached out to them very early in the morning requesting a drop in visit for the evening and they accommodated us with no problem! Thank you both for treating lala so well. We will definitely use them when needed!”
About: While I am new to Rover, I have a lifetime of experience loving and taking care of dogs. Whether I am stopping in, taking them on a walk, or boarding — I guarantee your pet will be loved, exercised, fed, happy and safe. I am also happy to set up a meet and greet to ensure the perfect fit. I’m currently a graduate student looking for part time work. My schedule is flexible. Please message me with any of your scheduling requests and needs. I am happy to care for your pet right in your home where they are comfortable or in my apartment with a small outdoor patio, if needed.
“Andrew was such a wonderful sitter for my two cats. Both warmed up to him quickly and I felt confident they were in good hands. Andrew kept me up to date with detailed notes and amazing pics. I am so happy to have booked with him and will for sure rebook for future sitting needs.”
About: I am a puppy mom in Astoria/LIC, close to many scenic walks and dog parks. I know how important it is (especially with puppies) that you re-enforce positive behaviors and training so your pup comes back behaving how you want them! I have been caring for others dogs (friends, neighbors, coworkers) for the past 10 years and have now successfully raised and train my own dog over the past year. I am also very active and love to run! I am happy to take your pup out with me. My dog Bailey is very friendly, she is already looking forward to play dates with your pup! She is very well socialized and adapts to any level of play that your dog can throw at us!
About: I have been a dog owner for several years now! I understand what it’s like to worry about our four-legged children while we’re away from them. Not all of us get to have the luxury of having family and friends care for our pets when we can’t ourselves. My mission is to make sure they get enough play time, lots of love and yummy treats! I love taking my pups to the park, or on a hike as much as the weather permits, so if there’s a park nearby I’d be happy to bring them by to let off some energy. You won’t be disappointed with the care and attention your pets will recieve from me. So, rest assured they will be in good hands.
“Jungmin did an amazing job taking care of Bobo and our home while we were away! She was incredibly caring, responsible, and attentive to Bobo’s needs. She went above and beyond by helping clean and vacuum the apartment and spending extra time making sure Bobo was comfortable and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Bobo was in such good hands. I truly appreciate her kindness and dedication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I currently work at one of the top-rated doggy daycares in Elmwood Park, where I’ve had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience caring for dogs of all different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and have grown up around them my entire life, learning how to care for them with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. Working with dogs is something that comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. I work morning shifts five days a week, typically from 6 AM to 1 PM, which leaves my afternoons and evenings open for pet care. My days off vary each week, but I’m flexible and love dedicating my free time to caring for animals. I’m available whenever I’m not working and will always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and care. 🐾 I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. My own pets are my spoiled babies, and I make sure they have everything they need to live their happiest lives from plenty of playtime and attention to regular meals, potty breaks, and the freedom to be their silly, lovable selves. I create a calm, caring environment where pets can feel comfortable, be themselves, and know they’re in loving hands. When caring for someone else’s pet, I treat them with that same patience, affection, and care I would want for my own.
“Xunzi did a great job! She kept us updated during her visit with our cats and sent a lot of pictures. I would definitely recommend Xunzi for your cats.. Thank you Xunzi.”

About: Heyo all! My names Kayla and I’ve been a veterinary assistant for the past six years. I’m currently in nursing school looking to make a few extra dollars on the side (for coffee of course). And would love to spend time with your pets :) I’m currently not working a set schedule at a veterinary office, due to prioritizing school, but I am available as needed for quick check-ins throughout the week! I have three fur babies that I have at home that I love dearly, they’re all up to date on vaccines and do well with other dogs as well.
“Scarlett is wonderful! We will continue to trust her with our boy as long as she continues to dog sit! She is reliable, attentive & our dog absolutely loves her. She has also helped us when we’ve needed help at the last minute and we are so appreciative!”
About: I love playing with my dog and always make sure he is feed, walked, and is having fun. I have also been around a few different animals and always try to taylor how I treat them towards them. At 8:30am and 6:00pm my dog gets a walk and I let out my dog whenever he stands by my back door into my fenced in yards where he is free do do as he pleases (there is nothing dangerous back there). I walk him around 30 min after his meals so he get a good bowel movement in. I would alway try to leave everything as it is and only to touch what I am instructed too. The would be taken the upmost care of.

Christina is such a wonderful pet sitter! She has been so caring and patient with our two cats. One of our cats needs multiple medicines and the other is quite shy and she has worked to get both to love her! All the while she’s been communicative, caring, and gone the extra mile. Christina is great and I can’t sing her praises enough!
I have a really nervous and picky dog, and he warmed up to Chris within minutes!! I’ve had several pet sitters over the years and the only one he loves is his grandpa (husband’s dad). However, Chris has met him three times now and based on pictures alone I can tell my little guy is feeling more and more comfortable each visit. I am definitely a repeat customer! I have another trip in the next couple weeks and am SO glad I can go away without worrying about the stress levels of my pup. Thanks so much Chris + Jack!!
We hired Libby for two weeks of drop-in visits with our 4 year old cat, and we were SO happy with how she took care of our him! We really appreciated the extra time she took for a pre-booking meet and greet to meet us and our pet, her daily updates complete with cute photos, and the thoroughness of care she provided. Libby is a great communicator, incredibly detailed, treated our cat like her own, and went above and beyond in her care - even bringing in a package from outside during one of our visits. Our relatively shy boy was crawling in her lap by the end of the two weeks. We will definitely be booking Libby in the future!
Amanda went above & beyond during her visit with Lucy. I couldn’t have asked for a better drop in. She was attentive to not only Lucy, but also the entire apartment letting me know if things looked out of place. I can tell Lucy was cared for & played with throughout the drop in. Will book again!!!
Christine was fantastic taking care of Minino while we were away! She came by daily to feed him and always sent us pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and made sure he was happy and well looked after. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a reliable, attentive cat sitter.
Lillian was absolutely wonderful with our two Shih Tzus, Smokey and Bandit. From our initial meet-and-greet to a last-minute request for a walk and feeding, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly easy to communicate with. She kept us updated, responded promptly, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Smokey and Bandit, and they were happy and well cared for every time she looked after them. We highly recommend Lillian to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog sitter. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Maywood is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $35 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 October 2026, there are 27,424 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maywood. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% 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 .
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.
