“Keelyn is amazing with my difficult cat. She’s kind, calm and very patient with our girl, Cali. I highly recommend her for pet sitting. I felt so happy to be away without worrying how things were going at home with the cat. Hiring anyone to come in my home while I am away was an uncomfortable feeling but Keelyn’s personality and experience put me at ease.”

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: 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.

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 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’ve always had pets in my family, so I grew up around animals and learned to love and care for them from a young age. Four years ago, I adopted my own pug, and he quickly became part of my everyday life. I love playing with him, feeding him, going on walks, relaxing together, and even taking naps. Having my own pet has taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and giving animals lots of love and attention. I would treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I work from 3:00 PM to 11:30 PM, so my mornings are usually open and flexible for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I also have some weekend availability depending on my work schedule, so feel free to reach out and we can find a time that works! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while I’m with them. I’ll follow their usual routine, keep their food and water fresh, give them plenty of attention, and of course make time for play and cuddles. I’m also very respectful of each pet’s space and personality, so I always try to make them feel relaxed and cared for.

She also brought her young son a few times, who is great with dogs and gave him lots of attention. Selfishly, the only reason I wouldn’t recommend her is so she is always available when I need her! She goes above and beyond and is a problem solver. 5 stars!”

About: I've had two dogs of my own - one blind, and the other deaf. I am happy to manage your pet's quirks while we're having a great time together, too. Every pet needs something different, so I'll pay close attention to the details of your instructions. I'm also very focused on safety: leashes and familiar walks are a must! I am a teacher, so during the school year, I am available after 4:00pm to check in on your pet so everyone is happy when you arrive home. Also, I am booking now for summer - I would love to share my time off with your pets! I am a teacher during the school year, so my summer is wide open. I do enjoy visiting a few clients each day - it adds some structure to my own life! At my place, I have an air-conditioned apartment and a small porch where your pet and I can relax. We can take walks in the neighborhood or along the rail trail, located right across the street. Leashes and tags are always a must! In your home, I'll be sensitive to your pet's routines and habits around the house. Likewise, I'll be careful about your privacy and the condition of your home. In either location, we can agree on a timetable so you can expect pictures and updates of your special pet.

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’m available every day until 5 PM, and on Saturdays until 12 PM. I’m not available on Sundays, but for the rest of the week I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine and find a time that works best for you and your pup. Safety is my top priority. 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.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Clifton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
