About: My parents have a lot dogs and cats so I grow up with them. I start have my first dog at 15 years old and my first cat at 21 years old. I work full-time during the day, but I'm available for pet care before and after work. In the mornings, I can visit to feed your pets, refresh their water, clean litter boxes, and take dogs for a walk while the weather is cooler. I return after work, around 6:00 PM, for a second visit to feed your pets, clean the litter box if needed, and take dogs on another walk. Evening visits also provide a great opportunity for exercise, playtime, and companionship before the end of the day. I'll always do my best to follow your pet's regular schedule and provide consistent, reliable care while you're away. Hi! My name is Wei, and I've always loved spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting. During each visit, I can provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, and lots of love and attention. I'm also happy to follow your pet's normal routine and any special instructions, including administering basic medications if needed. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages and temperaments. Your pet's safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention during walks and mealtimes, especially for pets that tend to eat too quickly. If necessary, I'll split meals into smaller portions with a short break to help prevent choking or stomach discomfort. I also believe emotional well-being is important, so I always greet and leave pets calmly to help them feel secure and reduce separation anxiety. I work full-time, but I carefully schedule my bookings so every pet receives the attention and care they deserve. I communicate regularly with pet parents by sending updates and photos, so you'll always know how your furry family member is doing. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Nicolas (Cole) was great to communicate with. He gave detailed feedback on how our dogs were doing while we were home. He took the initiative to find our cat and made sure he got attention too ! Coke’s puts his heart in his work with the pets. We will gladly request to have him return.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old, I thrive off meeting new people and animals. I love the outdoors and sometimes a good challenge. I've had dogs from puppies to seniors under my care. With a large career background in childcare as well, I have a lot of patience and love to give. I am currently free for the summer, so I will have a wide availability for your pups and animals. I am willing to work weekdays and weekends. I don't have a preference for am or pm. Just excited to get started. When in a client's home, I create and maintain a safe environment for all pets by establishing trust early on, sitting on the floor and letting the animal come to me. Then the fun starts, alongside with safety always. I provide lots of love and cuddles and encouragement (and treats in accordance with the pet parents of course). After all the requested tasks are done, and the walk is complete, I love to cuddle with them and foster that trust some more. No matter which service you prefer, my priority is always to meet the animal where they are, and build the relationship up from there.
“Taylor was great with our cats and left detailed notes that helped put us at ease while we were gone. It was clear they took a liking to her and she took the time to play with them. I would not hesitate to book her again!”
“My husband and I used Alexis for the second time. This time for 4 full days, with 3 drop ins each day. She took wonderful care of our 2 cats and one dog. She kept the litter box very clean and made sure our pets got their medicine. Alexis has such a caring personality and kindness to her that our pets love. We are very thankful for her help.”
“Sofia has been terrific as our drop-in sitter, coming to our house to hang with our dogs while we are at work or running errands. Always reliable and quick to respond and the dogs have a blast and jump for joy when she visits!”
About: i’ve been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I had 6 dogs in my home back in California. I’ve raised my pug for 10 years now and love her to death. I’m great sitter that animals get along very well with me. I’m a college student so there will be days that I have to go to school for exams. However I have a flexible schedule. Any pet is welcomed I have a full living room and a backyard where they can feel comfortable staying. My neighborhood is safe and chill.
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dogs, Mocha and Matcha, home alone, so I was very anxious. I hired McKenna in advance, and she even did a couple of visits while we were still home to get to know them. When the actual trip started, I felt so guilty I almost cut it short—but McKenna reassured me with such kindness. She followed every instruction, came twice a day, fed, walked, and played with them, sent photo updates, and even stayed extra time to comfort them. Mocha doesn’t usually trust strangers, but she warmed up to McKenna quickly. Matcha loved her too! McKenna made the whole experience smooth and worry-free. I’ve already asked if she’s available again in July! So grateful and blessed to have found someone who truly treats my pups like her own.”
About: My name is Erica and I am an enthusiastic and dedicated caretaker for your pets and plants! I have been a babysitter since I was 14 years old, and have extended my services to petsitting in the last year. I have experience in taking care of small to medium sized dogs, young and old, for family and friends as needed in the past and want to extend my dog sitting care to my community. I am happy to housesit as well as walk, feed, and care for your pets, and most importantly, foster a safe and happy environment for them. I can't wait to meet your beloved companions and befriend them too. I am available for evening petsitting or walks after 5pm on weekdays, and all day on Saturday and Sunday, overnights on weekends only. I can accommodate for your schedule if needed. I have reliable transportation to your home and will be respectful of your living space and your pet's routine. I am happy to give your dog a walk, take them out for breaks, feed, and/or entertain them as needed.
“Laura provided excellent service and communication regarding our cats while we were gone for 9 days. My 2 senior cats need daily medication (oral pills and topical cream) and Laura was comfortable with this situation. When we booked our vacation, months ago, they didn't need any medication, so finding the right sitter leading up to our time away was stressful for me, but Laura was great and helped me feel more at ease while on our big family vacation. It turned out that one of my cats would hide with each visit, which I'm sure was annoying to manage, but Laura stuck with it. We can't thank her enough for caring for our aging cats!”
“Jessica took great care of my two cats while I was away for the weekend. She gave them lots of play and affection, kept them well fed and watered, and kept the litter box clean. She even left a homemade cat toy for them!”
“Excellent experience with Lin. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they needed. Communicating with every visit with pictures and details, letting us know the exact situation, was very helpful to keep us reassured everything was fine.”
“Varsha is an incredible pet sitter with a genuine passion for animals. My little pup, Sundae, absolutely loves spending time with her. We had a successful meet and greet where Varsha introduced herself to Sundae and quickly built a rapport. Throughout the visits, Varsha kept me updated with frequent communication and sent me plenty of adorable pictures. As a first-time user of Rover, I am extremely grateful for Varsha’s professionalism and dedication, which made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Five stars!”
“Mia is great and so patient with my pups. She keeps me updated and contacts me for any questions. I really appreciate that because I worry about my girls while I am at work. Thank you for all you do Mia :)”
About: As a pet parent to both cats and dogs since 2018, I’ve pretty much seen it all! Over the last eight years, I've had to handle my fair share of unexpected pet emergencies. From managing diarrhea to large open wounds and fractured paws to dealing with accidental toxic ingestions. Because of those experiences, I’m really quick on my feet, know how to stay calm under pressure, and can handle whatever a pet might throw at me. I'm very attentive to a pet's needs when they are healing or just need a little extra medical TLC. You can trust that I’ll keep your pets safe, calm, and well cared for. I currently work part-time, so I’m free for the majority of the week. On Thursdays and Fridays, I have limited availability, but I am free in the mornings up until 2:00 PM. My weekend availability can vary, though with enough notice, I should be available for most requests. Throughout the day, I feed all of my pets together in the morning, which has been a huge milestone for us. My dog is a recent integration to the family; for five months, everyone was separated, and we only recently moved to unsupervised time after a lot of monitored play. My cats, who weren't friendly to dogs before, have completely adjusted. Thankfully, my dog is naturally non-reactive and has a great personality, so with enough time and patience, he naturally learned not to chase or bother them at all. Because of that transition period, my cats still have their own designated room where they can hang out, completely unbothered by dogs or any other animals. Going through this process gave me firsthand experience with careful pet integration, pacing, and creating safe, stress-free boundaries for different animals.
“Thank you so much, Olga, for taking amazing care of my cats. Olga stepped in to help during a last minute booking and was incredibly accommodating. She worked with my schedule and allowed me to submit additional bookings as needed.”
About: I have been a dog lover for all my life and realize they require lots of love and attention each day. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own so you never have to worry while you're away. If your dog is more energetic and prefers running instead of walks, then I will certainly do that. Or, if your dog needs to go at a slower pace, I can do that too. I have experience with puppies all the way up to senior dogs and can administer pills and/or oral supplements. My availability is very flexible and I will try to make time even if it is short notice. I am very responsible so you can definitely count on me to keep your furry friend happy and safe when you're unable to be there with them. If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to send a message or give me a call. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Carteret on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 12,145 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Carteret. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Carteret. On Rover:

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
