“Courtney was a great caregiver to my cat, Riffraff. She followed my initial directions and communicated each visit with great pictures and descriptions of how he was doing and feeling as well as eating. Definitely would recommend Courtney, she shows she cares for the animals she’s responsible for!”

“I had an excellent experience! Emily was incredibly kind, communicative, and took wonderful care of my cats. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals, and the flowers she left as a thank-you were such a thoughtful and unexpected touch. I would absolutely book with Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone on Rover.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets, I have a genuine passion for animals and providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I have extensive experience with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to care for pets of all ages and personalities to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and follow their routines as closely as possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am available anytime and have an open schedule so I can work with the needs of my clients. I can do walks any time of day. I live in a safe private neighborhood in a single family home.

About: Sometimes I volunteer at the church. I recently finished my master's degree and am now a full-time parent, so my schedule is flexible. I spend most of the rest of my time with my cat and my son. I can easily work around your needs. In my past experience looking after cats at friends' homes, the first thing I do upon entering is ensure the door is closed. While feeding and cleaning up, I also keep an eye out for any signs of vomiting.

“Alexandra was such a great help. I submitted a last-minute request for someone to come feed my two little furry guys. She quickly responded and we went over the details for their care. She kept them fed and happy and provided me with great pictures/updates. I will definitely request her services again.”

About: I may be new to cat caretaking, but I pull a lot of wisdom from many cat parents around me! Communication is very important to me and I want to make sure your cat is well taken care of while you're away! I work remotely and can easily stop by to check on your cat twice a day. Google calendar is one of my favorite tools to stay organized! I would like to speak with you first to discuss in depth what works/doesn't work for your pet as well as the rules of your home. Respect is key!

About: I have been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I have always loved animals with my whole heart. My family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of, feed, walk, and bathe their pets while they are away. I am especially praised for the amount of time I spend hanging out with the pets. I like I hang out with them as much as I can and get in all the cuddles so they know they are safe with me and feel all of my love while their owners are away! This works with my schedules perfectly! I typically work 8 hour days, so mid day check ins, and evening care work perfectly for me since I am available to stay at the pets house with them! I spend a lot of time with the animals when I am there. I always allow cuddles and honestly it is my favorite part of the job. Coming back to a pet that is excited to see you is the best feeling in the world. I make sure the dogs get plenty of time outside, and long walks if the weather permits. I love playing with the animals. Cats or dogs! I love seeing the pets be comfortable with me and building that bond between the animals and myself!

“Hope was wonderful! She kept us informed and followed through with everything we asked her to do. Unfortunately our shy kitties did not reward her with much of their presence. We know she has a busy year but if she has any time during Thanksgiving Holiday we would love her to sit for us again. Karen and John Elvira & Wednesday’s parents”

About: Pets have been a big part of my life, and I know the difference between a pet who is just being watched and one who is truly cared for. I currently share my home with a cat, so daily care is second nature to me: feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and the small routines cats count on.Especially Anxious (i know when your gargoyle wants to lurk-and when the rubs are needed. I’ve had two dogs, and both taught me a lot. My first, Ed, was an 80-pound American Foxhound rescued as a suspected abandoned hunting dog who had never lived indoors. Together we worked through house training, leash manners (no more yanking), a fear of stairs (which involved carrying him up three flights until he stopped being scared), and a distaste for rain. His name was not what he was rescued with, but he was clearly always an Ed. With my second dog, Kovu, I spent a lot of time on socialization with other dogs and on keeping him calm and quiet when left alone. Because of that, I’m patient with nervous, rigid, big dogs, and dogs still learning the rules. I know that consistency and a calm presence go a long way. All Creatures Welcome! Friends have long turned to me for help with their pets, whether furry, scaly, feathered, or creepy-crawly. I’m happy to talk through any pet’s needs, so ask me about yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet before booking. Send me a message and tell me about them! I am a remote worker with a need for reliable wifi more than happy to drop-in, sleepover, or sit for a while with my laptop on your couch. Clear updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away Strict adherence to your pet’s feeding, medication, and walking routines A calm, patient approach tailored to your pet’s personality

About: I have taken care of animals for most of my life in a way that makes the animal and owner comfortable, happy, and meets their needs. I have another job that I work for and my hours vary but I am still able to see the animal(s) at many times if needed. I have more availability during the summer time. If I am spending an afternoon in a clients home, I will find one spot to sit in and let the animals approach me. I'll make myself available, and show them I am here to care for them. I believe in earning their trust.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Clifton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Clifton is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $23 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 October 2026, there are 7,040 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 .

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.

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 .

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

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.

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.
