“Boryana did a great job looking after my cat while I was away! This was my first time leaving my cat for an extended period of time, but Boryana provided updates and photos that made me feel confident my cat was in good hands! My cat is normally shy but quickly warmed to Boryana and even sat on her lap by the end of the trip!”
“Jeffrey was on time and very attentive to our dog. We greatly appreciated his updates and photos. His reliability and caring for our dog gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Katrina was lovely! A prompt communicator, she took care of everything while I was away and kept me updated, and even went out of her way to check on where my shy cats were kidding to make sure they were okay. I’d fully recommend her as a great choice!”
About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, reptiles, and birds! I grew up with two dogs, chickens, ducks and I currently have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own. I have previously pet sat for neighbors and family friends, caring for both cats and dogs. I am comfortable with daily pet care, including feeding, grooming, walking, cleaning, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also have experience administering medications, including injections, and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or scales, I strive to provide attention, reliable, and loving care tailored to their individual needs. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I want both you and your pets to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away! I work full-time from home as a customer service agent, generally between 10 AM and 6 PM, Monday through Friday. Because my job is remote, I have flexibility throughout the day to accommodate pet care needs, check in on your pets, and provide attention and companionship while you’re away. I’m available for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved animals. I have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own, so I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities.
About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!
About: I’m now the mom of a 4-year-old poodle whose weight is 55lb , and 20 years ago I had a Maltese, whose weight was 6lb. I love dogs with my whole life. Love to play with them, take care of them, feel like being around with family members, never feeling bored I have a friendly dog of my own to keep company of your fur baby. I can easily keep your dog in a crate if needed
“Danielle did a great job! She sent photos at every visit and kept me informed on what was going on every drop in. I would definitely recommend her if you needed someone to watch your pups. We definitely will be using her again .”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I honestly can’t imagine it any other way! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have had my own horse since I was 12. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and over the years, I’ve learned a lot about their care, health, and individual needs through caring for my own horse and pets. I truly love spending time with animals and getting to know their different personalities. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, get some extra cuddles, or just have someone around while you’re away, I’d love to be that person for them! I’m also a Registered Nurse at RWJBarnabas, so I’m responsible, attentive, and comfortable handling situations that require a little extra care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work M-F 7:30AM-4PM. Weekends are free, however, during the week if your pet needs to be let out during the day I will not be available unless it is before/after work. I offer walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m flexible and happy to work with their routine and personalities!
About: I grew up with several different dogs and animals of all kinds. I love any type of critter and in the past I have taken care of senior, young, and special needs animals, and love them all dearly. I just graduated and moved to New Jersey! Currently have a fully open schedule and need to fill up some time! Please contact me and I’d love to take care of your fur babies I always make sure that any animal I take care of is always safe and sound. I make sure to never let dogs out without a leash, and am always careful to make sure a cat never sneaks out the front door when going in and out. And I always make sure to remember things easily forgotten, such and changing out their water!
“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. From the very first moment, it was clear that Ella truly understands cats—not just their routines, but their emotions, boundaries, and quiet language. My cats felt safe and genuinely cared for, which says everything. Ella has what I can only describe as soul cat energy: patient, intuitive, and deeply kind. She went above and beyond, not just making sure everything was done, but making sure my cats felt loved. Ella is a true star and a rare find.”
“This is our second time using Chelsea and we will continue using her going forward. She’s great with our 2 dogs and always sends the best pictures and updates! Highly recommended”
About: I’ve been taking care of my own pup for over 6 years! I’ve got familiarity with crate-training and teaching them new tricks. For chill dogs, I’m more than happy just hanging out on a couch watching tv together. And for more active pups, I love to long distance run and am very comfortable jogging with dogs up to 70 lbs. I currently work remotely 3-4 days a week, and with a pretty flexible schedule. Barring the occasional mandatory meeting, I work my own hours so there’s plenty of time to spend with your pup. Hi, I'm Karan! When I lived in Jersey City, my brother, his wife, and I shared a dog named Luna. We raised her together for a little under 7 years, and got her when she was 9 months old. She was part of my everyday life: morning walks, couch time, and teaching her new tricks! When I moved out, we decided she'd stay with my brother. She bonded with him, and he was moving into a new home with his wife and soon-to-be son. It was the right call, but I really miss having a furry friend around. My schedule doesn't allow for a dog of my own right now, and that's a big part of why I'm on Rover! Rover lets me give our furry friends the love and care they deserve while you're away, and it keeps animals in my life. I'll treat your dog the way I'd want someone to treat Luna! With patience, affection, and lots of head scratches. For boarding: Your pup will have plenty of room to stretch out at my place. I live in a spacious four-bedroom apartment with a balcony, and there's a dog park and lots of grass right outside, so potty breaks and playtime are only steps away. For longer walks, there's a much bigger park a few miles away that's great for exploring. For house-sitting: I work remotely most days, and I'm happy to work from your home if you'd like. I'll follow their usual feeding and walk schedule, and give you regular updates on their mood, how walks went, and all other info you’d like!
“Anthony was quick to learn about our dog and details of entry and exit from house. He dropped by few days before drop-in visit for a quick greet and meet. It went smoothly.”
“Jenna was amazing with our puppy! She was on time and immediately bonded with her. My daughter was worried about leaving the puppy with someone new, but felt so much better after meeting and talking to Jenna! Strongly recommend!”
About: We always had pets growing up. Mom to young kids who love animals. Great exercise and fun for the kids! Reliable, trustworthy, and will take the utmost care of your animal. I’m part remote and kids are in nursery school part time so someone is usually always home throughout the week. Weekends are usually spent exploring a park or playground. If I’m dog sitting that week the pup always comes along! Always looking to get some fresh air, exercise, and meet new fur friends! I have a fenced (aluminum) in yard and my house is baby proof so gates in play room and upstairs. Your pet will become a fur family member while you are away and my kids and husband will love them. Im currently working part time remote so I can board at any time in the week as my schedule is very flexible. If I’m not home then my husband will be home with our kiddos and your pup. I have a fenced in yard and play gates in my house (for my kids) but also gives everyone space if needed. We go out for walks 2/3 times a day and we have a local playground we walk too in the neighborhood for some extra play. The kids love to engage with the pup and we usually spend a good amount of time outside throwing the ball or stick.

Abigail completed another great visit with photos of how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. She also went above and beyond with being handy in fixing the gate latch, which recently broke. This shows how caring and attentive Abigail is, and I highly recommend her to other pet owners!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cranbury is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $41 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 5,009 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cranbury. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cranbury. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
