“Jada is excellent. Quick and painless with watching my beloved babies. Toward the end of the visit my VERY standoffish girl that usually stays away from people offered some cuddles which was pretty much a stamp of approval. Attentive, quick, and made sure to come on time to feed my babies. Will be booking again.”
“Heather is great! We were away for a week, and we felt comfortable and assured that our cat was well cared for. She sent a message and photo update every day, and it was clear she really cared about our little buddy. She even brought a holiday gift from “Heather Claws”!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and caring with both our dog and cats. She followed our instructions perfectly, arrived exactly when requested, and did an excellent job taking care of all our pets. Rachel was dependable, punctual, respectful, and genuinely kind to our animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pets. We will absolutely use her again!”
About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.
“Catherine is so amazing!!!!! She does so much more than I ask every time and is so very thoughtful and kind. Very professional and caring to my kitty, sincerely appreciate you Catherine!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼”
“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”
“Rachel did a great job and went above and beyond with the cats. Our notoriously shy cats even made an appearance which is high praise from them. We’ll definitely be using her services again when we go on vacation!”
“Caroline is a loving and professional sitter. Kit can be shy but she came right out for Caroline and gave all the love. Caroline left a thorough note about Kit and sent lovely pictures. I would hire her again and again.”
About: I know what it’s like to worry about your fur babies when you're away from home, which is why I strive to provide top-notch daytime care. Whether I'm popping in for a drop-in visit or taking them out for some fresh air, my services include: feeding and medication per the pet parent’s instructions, plenty of walks, play time, and lots of cuddles (if they’re okay with that!) with photo updates throughout my visit. As an animal shelter volunteer, I especially have experience with cats, including kittens as young as 2 weeks old. Since I have recently moved to Philadelphia my availability is now completely open, which works out perfectly for scheduling visits! Any scheduling discrepancies will be communicated ASAP. My approach to pet care is centered on safety and maintaining a stress-free routine. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a 'safety-first' environment by double checking locks and removing potential hazards.
“Ashley was a great match for my cat Zahra. He loves to go outside and she helped him get a few hangs in with his friends. Ashley is conscientious and clearly loves animals five stars.”
“Therese was awesome! She toon a last minute job over the holidays which I am super thankful of. She sent pictures and checked in with great info everyday. She even helped me with some package issues I was having. I would book her again. Thanks, Therese!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals. Dogs, cats, and even my daughter’s reptile. Let me prove my affection to your animals. Everyone that knows me knows how much I love animals and how trustworthy I am. I’m available during the day, Monday-Friday. Anytime between 8am and 4pm would be the best hours for me. I live in Springfield Delaware county. I would prefer to drive within 10-15 mins max from my house. My dogs get the royal treatment. They sleep in bed each night. I tuck them in when it’s cold. They aren't in crates when I’m gone. Treats on the regular. Whipped cream as an extra treat and bark box delivered monthly.
About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life growing up, I've had a few years of experience with cats both at home and taking care of roommates' pets. I've participated in dog training classes growing up, so I have good knowledge from that. I'm currently working part-time, so I generally have 3 to 4 days a week open, and live right on the trolley line in West Philadelphia, so I have decent range. I like to make sure I know what all the animal is eating, and try to stray from that as little as possible. As far as boarding goes, I have a small studio apartment, so I have very limited options there.
About: Hello my name is Millie and I am an adventurous person who loves all animals big or small. I have taken care of pets from a very young age. My first love for dogs started with a high energy Boxer. I am patient and caring and love being around animals. Whether that means walking them while you’re at work or spending more time with them while you go on vacation, they’ll be in good hands. I listen carefully to your instructions and take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. When you entrust me with your fur baby, you can feel confident knowing I’ll provide attentive, loving, and dependable care while keeping you updated and making sure both you and your pet are comfortable and happy. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree full-time, which gives me a consistent schedule for pet care. Monday through Friday, I’m available before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM. My weekends are more flexible, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of pet-care needs. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to providing attentive care while working around your pet’s routine. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication administration, and maintaining a clean and comfortable environment. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m attentive to changes in a pet’s behavior or routine and will communicate with pet parents throughout the visit so they know their fur baby is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have a love for all animals, but especially for dogs. I have experience with both dog day care and dog walking services. I have taken care of my own dogs over the years, both big and small, and would love to have an opportunity to care for others. I would love to sit for other kinds of pets as well. I have had a number of pets over the years, including cats, fish, birds, turtles, hamsters and geckos. I live right near the airport, so drop off and pickup around your vacation is super convenient! I am available all day every day to care for your pet. Spending quality time with animals is therapeutic for me. I love taking the time each day to care for them and play with them. I love exercising with pets and making sure they are happy and healthy. I prefer to spend at least an hour with each pet. Taking the time to play, exercise, and eat good food is essential! I love to make sure a pet's quality of life is just as good as mine.
“Brandi was an excellent sitter for our dog for 8 visits while our family was on vacation. Our pup Hamlin enjoyed her visits and company each day. Thank you again and will recommend you to any other customer needing any dog sitting. 😁”
About: I have experience caring for cats and small dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s personality and routine. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and lots of affection. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away I’m a Penn student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my classes. I’m especially available in the evenings, on weekends, and during days when I have more flexibility. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to make sure their pet receives consistent and reliable care. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I make sure food, water, doors, leashes, and the environment are secure, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I’m respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos while they’re in my care.
“Ali took great care of my cat while I was away for two weeks. She always sent pics and was able to problem solve when my cat knocked over her feeder. I was very nervous leaving my cat for the first time but felt at ease with Ali caring for her.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Clifton Heights
Angelica is so terrific! We especially appreciate how she takes initiative to do things that we haven’t asked her to do, but that makes sense to do, like taking in the compost pails as we intended to ask her but forgot. When it comes to the pets, if she thinks of something we haven’t asked her to do, she runs it by us first! We feel very lucky to have her taken care of our pets.
Our usual pet sitter fell through at the last minute before a trip so I needed to book someone on late notice. Evelyn was incredibly responsive and accommodating and even made time to do a quick meet and greet before we left for the trip. She was extremely kind and sent us some incredibly cute pics for cat updates! She was excellent and would absolutely work with her again. Thank you Evelyn for taking such great care of our cats!
Callie was so kind and so accommodating!! My husband and I booked her last minute to watch our pets while we were at our wedding, and she was so kind and flexible with our last minute request. She also took her time to make sure our dog, Maddie, was comfortable with her being in our home, which we really appreciated, because our dog can be a little nervous when meeting new people. She also was great with her updates of our pets and was super communicative!! We would definitely recommend Callie to anyone!! We will definitely be booking with her again!!
Heather was absolutely amazing! We felt completely at ease traveling knowing our cat was in such great hands. The visit update/report was detailed, thoughtful, and reassuring. On top of that, Heather even helped brining in our mails and packages. We could not have asked for better and will definitely rebook in the future!
Jacqueline went above and beyond for taking care my cats while I am gone. She did everything thing I asked for and beyond, even took out the pxxp bags or helped me look around for my cat's medication when i forgot where I kept. She truly care my pets as her own. I'll definitely book with her.
Olga did an amazing job with our kitties while we were on vacation! We came back to the litter boxes spotless and two happy and healthy furry friends. There was even a minor logistical issue that came up during her time here that Olga quickly found a solution for on her own and dealt with so we didn't have to worry a bit. I will definitely book Olga next time we're out of town!
Robyn is an absolute delight to us! She takes her job even more seriously than I could expect, and goes above and beyond in all ways. She is so good at caring for all our pets, kitty, toad, and turtle. Then she gives corn to the deer that come through our property! She follows every instruction perfectly, and is extra conscientious. We are so happy to have her help us when we are away!
Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Clifton Heights is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $21 per visit.

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 .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
