Madison did a great job caring for Arthur! Perfect amount of communication, showed up right on time and did everything that was asked. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter! Would definitely book with her again.

Emily was there in a pinch when I was in a bind and needed someone to let my new 3 mo puppy out of his crate for a potty break while I was working. I went over everything with her quickly at the meet and greet and she was wonderful to take him out to potty, then back in to play, eat and drink. She checked in each time she showed and sent pictures, which was nice. Emily is responsible and reliable and I highly recommend her to care for your pet. I will definitely be calling on her again, if she's available.

About: I have always had pets, growing up as a child, and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My love for animals reflects daily as I have been working in a pet boarding and day care facility for the past 8 years. I have extensive experience working with all breeds and ages of animals, including both aggressive dogs, and working canines. I can also provide prescription medications and groom (bath and nail trims) as needed. Given my years of professional experience, I am confident in my abilities to take care of your pet(s). I do currently work full-time during the day Monday through Friday, however, I am available late afternoons, evenings and all-day on weekends including some holidays. I currently have an American Bully at home, and she is accustomed to having multiple dogs and small children in the home at times as well. Unfortunately, our backyard is not fenced in however, I can provide a cage if needed or gate the stairs to allow free roam on the main level if housebroken. I can provide services both in your home or mine including overnight stays and daily walks as requested.

YiYi was great with our two cats. Even our very shy cat warmed up to her right away. She gave me updates and sent a few really great photos - and I was able to enjoy our time away knowing that the cats were well taken care of. I would highly recommend YiYi.

About: I’ve never been without pets in my life. I have been taking care of (feeding, walking, etc.) them since I was a little kid! I’ve helped with cats, dogs, and bunnies. All of our pets were raised from babies and cared for until they passed away. I’ve given sick pets pills and other medications. I know how important it is for pets to get exercise and enrichment! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule! I have my own transportation with a reliable vehicle and can swing by for a quick visit or plan a longer stay to care for your pet! I can adjust to your environment! I am a traveler and have moved around so I understand apartment living and family-style homes and how that can affect pet care. I can feed, walk, and play with your pet no matter what that looks like.

She was wonderful with my puppy. She followed my instructions and ran around outside playing with him. It seemed like he had a lot of fun with her and was very happy when I came home. I would definitely recommend.

Having a 19 year old cat, we did not want to leave her with just anyone while we were anyway. Daniel was willing to come by for a meet and greet to make sure he was a good match. He was excellent to work with for set up and came by on schedule and spent time feeding and providing company in our absence. Daniel provided pictures for each visit which was comforting. If you are looking for someone who is dependable and friendly with your pet, he is your person.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Clifton on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 15,358 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clifton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clifton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 with handling special pet needs in Clifton. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
