About: My family has always had at least one cat or dog, so I have grown up with these wonderful animals as well as learned how to care for them with walking, feeding, cleaning, playing, etc. I am familiar with the body language of dogs and cats and want to provide a fun and safe experience for them while taking into account their unique temperaments and personalities. I treat every dog and cat like the beloved family member that I know they are. I am a grad student at Salem State, so besides going to classes and completing my coursework, I am available. I would love to spend some of my time meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am unavailable on Tues-Thurs mornings from 8:30-11am, Tues-Wed evenings from 4-7pm, and Thurs evenings from 6-9:30pm. I will treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I want to be an asset that will unobtrusively care for your animals in and outside your home. I know and honor how important every animal is in their family's life.

“Caitlin was an amazing pet sitter for our cat, Sienna. She consistently communicated with us, sending updates and pictures throughout her stay. Caitlin actively played with Sienna and went above and beyond to meet her specific needs. Sienna is very particular about how she drinks water and eats, and Caitlin made sure to accommodate her fully. We highly recommend Caitlin’s services! If you’re ever in need of a responsible and attentive pet sitter, Caitlin is the perfect choice. We couldn’t be more satisfied!”

About: I provide dependable, personalized care that helps pets feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior pets, and shy or anxious animals. I focus on patience, attention, and clear communication so pet owners always feel informed and at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication support, feeding schedules, or extra comfort for older pets, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits when needed. I make sure each pet gets reliable care, regular exercise, and plenty of affection while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in my home by abiding by the owner's feeding and snack schedule. I have fenced-in yard for playing. I walk the dogs in my neighborhood or go to a local park. I keep them on a leash, I NEVER let them roam free in a public area.

“Jamie does a great job! She’s been our Rover sitter many times. She very responsive and thoughtful! If it’s been a while since we’ve booked a visit from her, she’ll ask if there’s any dietary changes and special instructions. I’m very happy with her services. My scaredy cats (who hide from all visitors and guests) are warming up to her as well, and she’ll send a photo whenever they are in the room with her when she’s putting out food. Thank you, Jamie!!!”

About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. In addition to dogs, I’ve cared for cats, fish, rodents, and farm animals, so I’m comfortable working with a wide range of pets and their unique needs. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from high-energy puppies to more anxious or senior animals who need a gentler approach. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m very communicative and will keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training preferences, or care instructions to keep things consistent for your pet. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnights, I treat every pet like they’re my own and genuinely enjoy getting to know their personalities. If your dog stays with me, he/she will be in great company with my resident dog, Kimchi! For days that I’m available to provide doggy daycare services, I work from home and I’m able to accommodate your dog’s specific scheduling needs, including potty breaks walks, and medication routine needs. I have a friendly resident dog who will keep your dog good company while he or she stays with us. I always follow your care instructions and will never take dogs off leash. I am located in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of space for nice, long walks.

About: I started taking care of dogs when I was about 10 years old. Along with babysitting, family members, friends and colleagues have counted on me to watch over, feed, bathe and walk their pets. Fast forward 16 years and I am now a veterinary technician! I have 7 years of experience in this role and I love every second of it. What does this mean for you and your pets? I’m trained on how to handle puppies all the way to senior care. If your pet needs medication daily, I’m your girl! While I do work a busy schedule, as well as being a full time college student, I am able to fit pet care into my daily routine! I am unavailable on Mondays and Tuesdays unless you are looking for a quick drop in around lunch time or after 7pm. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I have availability after 1:30pm and weekends are totally free unless I have a prior engagement! I can be flexible with these hours as well if we needed to work something out that fits your needs better! I’ve been a vet tech for quite a while now and have learned how to read each pet and their temperment. I have basic knowledge and understanding on how to handle an emergency situation. I will do my best to ensure that our time together is filled with happy tail wags, lots of snuggles and enrichment as well! I look forward to meeting you and your pup(or your kitty)!

“I cannot say enough great things about Tawana's pet-sitting service! She cared for my cat with such love and attention, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Despite the building management losing the spare key, Tawana made an extra trip on the same day to ensure my cat was well-cared for, demonstrating her commitment and professionalism. She took the time to feed, water, and clean the litter box, and even played with my cat to keep her happy and entertained. Tawana also sent me the most adorable pictures and videos, which made me feel so connected while I was away. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stand out. I am beyond satisfied with her service and incredibly grateful for her help. I highly recommend Tawana to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”

About: Animals are my passion I went to high school for veterinary science, and have worked in all aspect of the animal world, grooming, daycare, walking, sitting, and even the medical aspect. My goal is to make sure that you're pet is more than satisfied and happy as well as the YOU the owner! I currently am working on building my own pet care business, so I have a lot of time for this as it's what I am trying to build and will be my only focus. I do also own two dogs and four cats of my own so animal care is not something new for me, something that just comes easy and flows into my day naturally. I have two dogs of my own that are also extremely dog friendly as well as 4 cats that are very used to the dogs, two even think they are dogs! I have a two story duplex with a mostly fenced in yard, but I do also have super long leads screwed into the ground incase of anything. animal care is my passion and what I love to do.

About: Hi Pet Parents! 🐾 please read 🐾 Multi-Hour & Constant Care BookingsPlease note that my listed drop-in rates cover standard 30 to 60-minute visits. For extended, continuous care where I am required to stay at your home for multiple consecutive hours, I charge an hourly rate of $25/hour.If you need a multi-hour booking, please message me directly before confirming so I can manually adjust the request to the correct total! This ensures your pet gets my undivided attention for the entire block of time. I bring over 6 years of pet care experience from Wag and have been on Rover for about a year where I built long term relationships with pups (and their humans!) through a ton of walks, drop-ins and sittings! ✨ What sets me apart? - Consistency & reliability: I treat your pets and your home with the same care I’d want for my own. - Experience with all kinds of dogs: from shy rescues to energetic puppies to senior pups or disabled dogs who need gentler attention and care - Communication: I keep you in the loop with updates, photos and videos so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy and safe. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone and I don’t take that lightly. Whether it’s a quick walk, an overnight stay or daily drop ins, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved and cared for while you’re away. - I know a lot of you are parents and / or are very busy if you need more assistance such as picking your dog up from doggy day care, grooming appointments or simply just cleaning up the house please let me know and we can discuss further Can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐶🐾 I have the flexibility to adapt to your pet’s specific routine and needs, so they get consistency and attention just like they would if you were home. When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. - Walks & exercise: I match your dog’s pace and energy level whether that’s a quick potty break, a long walk playtime. - Drop-ins: I handle feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks and always make time for playtime and affection so your pet feels loved, not just “checked on.” - Sitting: I provide companionship, stick to your pet’s daily schedule and make sure your home is respected and cared for while you’re away. I completely understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home. For extra peace of mind, I always encourage pet parents to use cameras if they’d like because that way you can see your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. I also send regular updates, photos and videos so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Just for extra reassurance, I don’t invite people into your home. The only time I ever have was for a family I’d been sitting for over many years, and I made sure to ask first—I only had my dad over for dinner because it was Thanksgiving during that stay. Aside from that, I would never invite friends or anyone else over, as I personally find that disrespectful.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Clifton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Clifton is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $30 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 November 2026, there are 1,454 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Clifton. 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 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.

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

  • 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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 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.
