“Gianna is warm, kind and caring. I travel quite a bit and I hate having to leave my cat but Gianna eases my mind and allows me to travel without worry. Gianna has truly been a gift to me and Julian!”
“Nicole was fantastic looking after my cat. He’s 16 and can be grumpy but she got him to socialize a bit and even eat treats from her hand. She’s really good with him and great at communication with me while I was away. Definitely will use Nicole’s services again.”
“Yunhan was exceptional from the beginning - a delight to meet and talk with, someone who clearly enjoys animals and understands how important one's pets are to the family members who love them. When Yunhan then came to do a drop-in I received many darling photos and updates of my dog and two cats. Will definitely book Yunhan again.”
“This was the first time using Rover & Kristin was an Amazing sitter. She was on time, very communicative and so nice. We didn’t worry about Lilo while she came to do daily drop ins. The pics and recaps were so sweet. You can tell Kristin is an animal lover and treats her furry clients as if they were her own. I HIGHLY recommend her 🙂”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs ever since I was little, some including mini poodles, rottweilers, germans shepards, boxers, and malti-poos. I trained my own dog when he was a couple months old when I was 16 and have been responsible for him ever since. I give him baths, we go on walks 1-3 times a day, and i feed and play with him. At the moment I just moved home from college and looking for something to keep me busy. I typically go to the gym everyday and whether it be before or after i’m usually free. With my own dog if i let him out in the backyard for a quick bathroom break i always go with him and when we go for walks he’s always on the leash until we get back to the house. Same would go for other dogs I will be walking. I will ensure they are on the leash at all times and that i’m paying attention and not distracted by my phone or other devices. When on longer walks I carry water with me for them and always clean up after they go to the bathroom.
“Mike immediately was one of Freddy’s favorite humans. He had a natural positive energy when he met Freddy for the first time and it’s still like that. He’s communicative and shows up on time. It’s great to have someone reliable to take care of our furry family member while we’re working.”
“Erin had great communication throughout the whole process. Our meet & greet was seamless and the whole visit went great with our dog! Highly recommend. We will be booking Erin for future needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from different sizes and breeds since I was 17. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have trusted me to walk, feed, and play with their dogs, and as a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet with a sitter. I’m attentive, empathetic, and detail-oriented, making sure every pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable whether it’s energetic walks, cuddle time, or sticking to their routine. I work full-time but am available after work for walks, drop-ins, play time, or feeding, with flexible care to fit your pet’s needs Friday through Sunday. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority! I treat every pet like family, providing safe, loving care in the comfort of your home. I’m hyper vigilant of my surroundings, making sure all doors and potential escape routes are secured, while following your instructions closely to keep your furry friend happy, calm, and secure.
About: I have loved animals since a very young age. I have been blessed to have been the fur mom to cats, hamsters, rabbits and I am now a devoted mom to Pablo, my 3 year old chihuahua mix. Having the opportunity to help look after your precious fur babies would be an absolute honor. My promise is to treat them with the same love, care and respect that I give to my own. I am currently taking a break from working so available weekdays and weekends. I am an early riser so happy to do 6am feeds or walks if need be. My philosophy with my own pets is to meet them where they are and respect their boundaries. If they do not like to be picked up or held, I happily respect their wishes. However I am also able to say “no” to cheeky behaviour :) I am happy to accommodate any special requirements such as medicines and special play times.
About: I have grown up around golden retrievers my whole life and love to take care of my friends' and family's dogs. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters with feeding, walking and playing with both cats and dogs. Nothing makes me happier than making sure your furry friends are well-taken care of! My primary availability is between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM on the weekdays. However, if you require any additional availability earlier or later in the day, let me know when booking, and I can confirm if I am able to support! I am here to help make sure your dog is taken care of while you are away: feeding them, playing with them, taking them on walks, and making sure they are treated as if it's just another day for them. I am an active runner training for a marathon, so if your dog likes to run, I can always use a running buddy! If there are any special requirements needed for your dog, please let me know in advance what you need so I can be prepared to take the best care for them.

“Leigh is a gem!! I’m so happy I found her to look after my cats. This is my 3rd time booking with her and she is great! She takes lots of pictures and gives sweet updates.”

Yunhan was exceptional from the beginning - a delight to meet and talk with, someone who clearly enjoys animals and understands how important one's pets are to the family members who love them. When Yunhan then came to do a drop-in I received many darling photos and updates of my dog and two cats. Will definitely book Yunhan again.
Meghan was absolutely AMAZING with our three cats. She came by twice a day and spent a long time with the cats. She sent pictures and updates every day and made sure the cats were comfortable while we were gone. She even went above and beyond and cleaned out all the cat bowls, cleaned some of the carpet from a cat’s accident, and took out the trash. I would highly recommend Meghan! Thank you so much Meghan!!
Katy is excellent with our 2 year old Aussie. She is on time and flexible. She helped me out with our dog when my husband was in the hospital and I will be forever grateful for her care and concern during that difficult time. It brought me peace knowing that our dog was being well cared for when we could not be there to do it. Thanks Katy!
Vanessa was fantastic and professional when she came to our house to walk our dog Roxy. She was prompt, able to calmly interact with our special needs dog and provided multiple pictures and updates during her one hour stay! We will be using her as a regular sitter from now on!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cedar Knolls is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $28 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.

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.

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.
