“Keelyn is really just the sweetest and most understanding sitter I’ve ever worked with. She’s attentive, caring and patient with our cat who’s shy of strangers. 1000/ 10 stars! Will definitely want to work with her again in the future!”


“Another worry-free vacation thanks to Ely's excellent cat care. Both our boys are on meds twice a day and Ely was so patient and caring with them. Her veterinary background is so helpful, especially with our one fussy fur kid who needed to be manually pilled during one visit, because he was not cooperating with the usual routine. Ely is amazing!”

About: I have owned dogs since I was 7 years old. I have always cared for them as if they were my own children! I have a 9 yr old pug (Lily) who has gotten along with every dog we have had. Snuggles and walks are part of the stay and every doggie guest is sent home with a special treat as a thank you for overnight stays with me! I can also pick up and drop off local pups at no charge! I work from home so I am always here to attend to your pup. I also have older children who love to play and cuddle with them! I have a fenced in yard and a safe street to walk dogs on. I have a gate to prevent dogs from going upstairs. My couch is a comfy space for the dogs to lounge!
About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. I am a full time college kid, with a car. I am only gone for up to 5 hours if that. Willing to go out of my way to make you pet feel as loved as possible. Mornings are the best time for walks and exercise. Afternoons are awsome for play time. I'm usually free most morning and afternoons. However, I am in school still so this could vary. Making sure they have lots of love and care, along with keeping them in good shape. Making sure they have someone to play with and keep them on their schedule
About: I was born into a family of pets and have been taking care of my dog and cat for years now. Walking, bathing, playing and loving. I am attending collage in the morning on Mondays, Thudays and Fridays but after 2pm I am usually free. I am usually always free on the weekends. While pet sitting I will walk, play and absolutely adore the furry baby that I have the honor of seeing. Any rules in place I will do absolute best to follow.
About: I have two cats of my own who I truly love more than anything, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience volunteering at animal shelters, walking dogs, and caring for other people’s cats. I have a warm, calm, and patient demeanor, and I always take the time to let animals get comfortable with me at their own pace. I know that every pet has their own personality, needs, and boundaries, and I believe building trust is one of the most important parts of caring for an animal. I’m also comfortable administering medications and have experience giving inhalers to cats and dogs. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or shy and needs a little extra patience, I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care and treating every pet as if they were my own. I am a school social worker at a special education school and have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I am available most weekday evenings and currently have daytime availability on Fridays. I also have some weekend flexibility and will always do my best to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s specific needs! I always prefer to meet with clients and their pets before booking to ensure I can provide the best possible care for their individual needs. This also gives me the opportunity to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, and preferences, as well as become familiar with your home and any important safety considerations. Building trust and making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable is incredibly important to me!
About: Hi! I’m Maria, and I’m absolutely obsessed with dogs. I’ve had dogs in my family literally since the day I was born, and I honestly can’t imagine my life without them. Unfortunately, my husband has allergies — but I found the perfect solution: I can take care of your pups and love them as if they were my own. I’m happy to walk any dog — from energetic puppies to big adult dogs. I always bring fresh water and treats (if your pup is allowed to have them!). Please let me know if your dog has any allergies or special needs so I can give them the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾💛 My availability is very flexible.

I always make sure your dog is secure on the leash during walks and never leave them unattended. I carry water and treats, but only give them if it’s safe and allowed. I pay close attention to your dog’s behavior, health, and any allergies or special needs, ensuring a happy and safe experience every time.
About: Growing up with dogs in our household fostered a deep love and appreciation for dogs and animals in general. Over the last few years I’ve gained valuable pet care experience. I enjoy connecting and providing special care to all creatures. I’m currently living in Beverly and working remote. I’m able to do walks, check-ins, and pet sitting mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m flexible and ready to provide exceptional care to your pets. Caring for pets in your home is no different than caring for children in your home. A high level of attention is non-negotiable so maintaining a solid walking, playing, and feeding schedule is of the upmost importance. Cuddles, belly rubs, and scratchies are also of the upmost importance.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clifton
Kirssy was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She made me feel so secure in all the care and love she was giving to them while I was away. She sent tons of photos and videos and has been extremely communicative since I first messaged her. I can’t recommend her enough, and I will be using her for future visits for sure!

Isabella was great! She was very attentive to Mozzarella’s needs and sent me lots of pictures and updates. Mozzarella was temporarily on a medication and she was able to give it to him each day and she also gave him lots of playtime. I would definitely book with her again.

Highly recommend Johnny! He took excellent care of our dog Candy, feeding her and taking her out for a nice walk. He was incredibly communicative, followed all of our instructions to a T, and gave us total peace of mind. Candy was in great hands, and we will absolutely reach out to him again in the future!

Caitlin was fantastic! She was able to accommodate a very last minute request and even squeeze in a meet and greet first. She sent loads of pictures of my cat, and feels genuinely invested in animals care and well-being. Excellent and quick communication all along, as well. I can't wait to use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Clifton is $25 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $37 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 9,802 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clifton. 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.

- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
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.
