Nicole is so patient, kind, and friendly. My pets are all older and I could immediately see upon meeting her that she would be the best fit. My apartment was tidy and the dishes she used were washed and on the counter. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I highly recommend Nicole!

Jon has been an excellent sitter for our cat multiple times. He keeps us well informed of our cat’s activities and does his best to break through the cat’s grumpy demeanor. Highly recommend.

Karin did another great job of taking care of my cat Jax while I was away. I can rest a little easier while I’m on vacation knowing she’s stopping by to help out.

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs over the course of my life and have grown a passion in their care, upkeep, and most importantly, their loving personalities. I understand that every animal is very unique and I enjoy their individual quirks and characteristics that make them who they are. I personally own a variety of pets including a dog (Yogi), and various lizards, fish, and frogs. To go along with my pets, I have also cat sit on plenty of occasions for my main man Mr. Cat. My passion for animals has lead me to this app to share my love with all animal types . While I am new to this app, I promise I am more than experienced with animal care. I look forward to meet you and especially your furry friends! I currently have a lot of free time as a recent college graduate. I am very flexible with time of day and will be able to accommodate with your schedule. I will be able to work with any environment whether that be a fenced in yard, taking on walks etc. I am more than comfortable with any type of animal and can certainly make sure that he or she eats, has water, and any other individual need.

About: I have always been involved in pet care in my home for over 15 years. I have had experience with elderly dogs and cats of my own. I have pet-sitted in my neighborhood for puppies and for breeds different from my own dogs. I will use my energy to play with your pet and hopefully decrease their energy. I have a very flexible schedule since graduating college and applying to graduate school nearby. I have lots of time and availability for stop-ins during the day or bringing study materials to a client’s home. My yard is fenced in and I can take dogs for a walk in Brookdale Park nearby. I will administer medicine and play with dogs and provide them with a cuddly environment.

Andy was an incredible sitter for our cat, Lincoln. He was highly responsive throughout the entire process, and he provided thorough check-in summaries with pictures, which really helped ease any concerns about our pet while out of town. Lincoln is not always the nicest to newcomers, and Andy did a great job navigating Lincoln’s defensiveness

About: I have always loved fur babies and have worked with all different age groups and energy types! I love learning about every pet's story and what makes them special. I am home for the summer from college, so I typically have a flexible schedule to fit your needs. I will be going back to school in mid-August. Every pet has different needs and boundaries, and I always aim to respect their trust. My own dog was very anti-social with people and other pets, so I know how to navigate those difficult interactions and make them feel safe.

I was hesitant to use a new dog walker, but my experience with Natalie was very assuring and she was fantastic with my dog King! She was friendly, always on time for the walks, professional and very responsible. I feel so relieved now that I found another great Dog Walker. I highly recommend Natalie and look forward to using her in the future.

About: I treat every pet like my own, giving them patient, reliable, and attentive care. You can count on me to keep your furry friend safe, happy, and loved with every visit. What Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life I have two pets of my own, so my week is built around feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping animals happy and healthy. Adding your pets into my routine is easy and enjoyable, because caring for animals is something I do every single day. While pet sitting, I follow the same level of care I give my own pets regular feeding, fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention and comfort. I stick to each pet’s routine, monitor their behavior closely, and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for until you’re home.

About: I loveee animals. I grew up with many pets from cute little bunnies, turtles, lizards, birds, dogs and everything in between. I’m very caring which will show in everything I do. Your babies will be my babies, I promise :) I currently work full-time as an elementary teacher. I’m available for boarding your babes on weekends, and weekdays after 4pm. Sometimes I’m off on holidays and I would board then as well. We will always have a great time. Your babe will be free to roam my apartment under my supervision, of course. I also have a large yard, but will keep him on a leash. I can also crate him or her if you prefer. Either way, we will have tons of fun together.

Caitlin was super accommodating accepting my request 1 day before as I urgently needed a backup sitter for a drop in. We scheduled our meet up the same day the request was submitted, and once her and Harlem were acquainted, I felt comfortable enough to trust someone to do a drop in. Harlem can be high energy, but Caitlin took such good care of him. She followed my instructions and provided constant updates during her visit along with pictures. I would rebook with Caitlin again and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust their fur baby with. Harlem says thank you, Caitlin!! :)

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Cedar Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Cedar Grove on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 25,723 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cedar Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cedar Grove stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Cedar Grove 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Cedar Grove with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cedar Grove. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
