“Alyssa was incredible! We had to leave the state for an interview about 24 hours after my cat had a dental cleaning-and inadvertently 7 teeth pulled. I felt horrible leaving Alyssa to deal with medication and a post anesthesia kitty, Alyssa did an amazing job of making me feel comfortable leaving my cat in her hands. She was quick to ask questions, send pictures and updates. I am so grateful Alyssa was available and capable of handling my littlest fur creature. Would book again in a heartbeat.”
About: I worked as a dog walker and pet sitter a number of years back for a professional company and am now finding myself in a place where I’d like to add some dog care back into my life! I have a lot of experience with dogs and have grown up my whole life with big dogs whom I was the primary care giver for. I have also house sat for many family members and friends as well as doing check ins and taking their pups on adventures when needed. I know what its like to be a pet owner while having a hectic work or even travel schedule, and I would love to step in and help where I can. Whether its a quick potty break, a walk, or even in home care for a quick weekend get away I am ready and willing to be your go to gal. Taking care of animals always has and always will be a passion of mine, I will make sure I do everything I can to make your pup feel safe, comfortable and happy. I currently work part time out of house and have plenty of time to do day time and drop in care throughout the week. With my own dogs we do 2-3 walks a day, unlimited outdoor time and usually a few sniffspots per week as time permits I have a fenced in yard and live in a house on a quiet street. There is plenty of cozy and calm space for your pups stay here
“Shad is a responsible & kind dogsitter who takes time to make sure our dog is comfortable & gets some enrichment for the day while we are away. Highly recommend!”
“We rebooked Lea because we were so happy with her care and communication when she watched Aria. She sends tons of pictures and her Rover Cards are always thorough and fun to read. She is responsible and loves animals. We feel extremely comforted when Lea is dropping in on our puppy. She’s always on time and follows care instructions exactly.”
“Asami took wonderful care of my two cats while I was away for a week! She is kind, professional, communicative, and sends fantastic updates and photos. I highly recommend her, and will book her services again in the future.”
“I trust Jenny with my two kitties. She usually writes a little update and takes a photo of both cats every drop in, even though one is always hiding under a chair. We come back to a tidy home and cared for kitties.”
“Holly was awesome and took great care of my cat while I was away. I really appreciated that she was available on such short notice over the holidays. She was kind, communicative, and professional. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Claire was wonderful! She took great care of my dogs during drop-in visits and gave special attention to my older dog as she was recovering from a surgery. Highly recommend her for drop-in care needs!”
“I felt confident about Shannon within minutes of meeting her. Shannon was fantastic with my cat, Maggie. Maggie is not an easy cat to care for as she requires insulin shots and is skittish around strangers. Shannon simply won her over. I wholeheartedly recommend Shannon and hope she'll be available every time I need a pet sitter. I could not have hoped for anyone better.”
“Alexis and David took great care of our kitties and home while we were away! They were communicative, punctual, friendly and professional. Best of all, our kitties were happy and well cared for in our absence. We will definitely book Alexis and David for our next trip away.”
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breads. I have recent experience in caring for elderly, disabled, and incontinent dogs. I love all dogs, young, old, grumpy, playful! I’d love to learn what your animal loves to do the most! I am a special needs childcare provider. I have lots of spare time when school is in. When I thought about how to spend my free time now that I no longer have my own dog, spending time with other people’s dogs sounded like the next best thing and getting to help people with travel plans or busy schedules stress less about their pets getting what they need is a great bonus! I love to follow instructions. If you leave me a list, I will follow it! Whatever your animal needs, I will do my best to provide!
About: In our family, dogs are like people. Being right off 84, our home is easy to access. We’re a family with teenagers, two small dogs, and a rabbit. We have a doggie door for access to a fenced backyard and covered patio. I’m happy to take them out for walks and live just blocks from Normandale park. I work from home so my schedule is flexible for drop offs, pick ups, and tending to your pets care. If you let me know what their routine is, I am happy to mirror that while they are here. My teenagers won't be providing care, but are happy to share the couch. Please bring your pets food, favorite toys, and treat treats. If they are particular about their bowls, have any medication or special leashes, please bring those If your pet is aggressive, it is not a good fit for our home. I am happy to keep you updated about your pet while they’re here.
“Carmen was so communicative and eager to bond with our cats, especially the medically needy one! She sent lots of photos showing them all having grand old time. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Sierra did a fantastic job watching our two cats for a long weekend! Our cats can be a bit difficult, and she did a wonderful job looking after them. Provided great communication, helped bring in a few packages, and was kind enough to water a few plants as well. When we had flight troubles, she even stopped by for an extra day to make sure our cats still got fed. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Andre is a great pet sitter. I will definitely hire him again. He is very loving to animals, and put me at ease when I left my geriatric bunny for a long weekend. He was very communicative and sent updates and photos at every drop-in. He left the house in good order and upon return I could see how Freyja and her spaces were well cared. Highly recommend!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maywood Park
First time having someone come watch and let our three pups outside while I was out of town and Devin was perfect. The pups seemed very comfortable with her including our youngest who is normally very nervous with new people. Will definitely book her again anytime I need to go out of town.
Kathleen did such a wonderful job looking after my 18-year-old cat, Mr. Greyberson, while I was away for two weeks! She followed every single instruction for his feeding and litter box needs, so I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again the next time I head out on a long trip! 😊
Misty was an amazing help with my Jojo! The time away really had him anxious and Misty’s care was instrumental in Jojo relaxing and feeling better. She went above and beyond and helped jojo even beyond of what was asked (with my permission of course!). Misty’s updates were really appreciated and through them I could tell how much she knew about cats and noted things I had not realized. My care for jojo is now changed due to her services. Top notch pet sitter!
Tiana did an amazing job taking care of our cat. Our cat is not the friendliest with strangers and she spent extra time with him. She respected his boundaries and tried to help him feel safe. We received notes and pictures with every check in. We were confident that he was well taken care of which gave us peace of mind while being gone. Definitely would hire her again.
Barbara is dependable and nurturing, always communicates well, and our kitties just adore her. Even after a year has passed, they perk right up when she arrives and they compete for her attention. We are so very grateful for her attentive care of our critters!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Maywood Park is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 October 2026, there are 6,510 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Maywood Park. 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise

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.
