“Words honestly can’t describe how amazing Kelley was! This was my first time using Rover and my senior Boxer’s first time having someone come in for drop-ins. I had to leave out town and couldn’t have imagined boarding her. Kelley was kind, communicative, and most importantly patient and understanding given that Sadie was a little hesitant at first. Kelley eased all my worries and even gave a fantastic suggestion on what could help ease some of Sadie’s hesitancy. I will definitely be booking Kelley again!”

About: I have a dog of my own and I know how difficult it can be to find someone that you trust to care for your fur baby. I have experience taking care of dogs in labor, puppies minutes old all the way up to senior pets. I have cared for my friends and family’s pets over the past years. From doing drop ins for cats just to feed and play with them to taking their dogs out for a potty break or long walk, or stay in their homes for an extended period of time, I truly enjoy caring for and providing company for animals while their owners are away. I truly enjoy the companionship that pets provide and I know what a relief it can be as a pet owner to know your fur baby is in good hands I prioritize my dog’s daily routine by scheduling walks, playtime, and off leash time in the dog run. I will usually walk my dog Sonny 3-4 times a day and usually with the dog I am watching, so please specify if you prefer your dog be walked alone! I pride myself in ensuring your pet will remain safe and healthy in my care. I always pay close attention when animals are eating, playing with toys, walking on the leash and climbing up and down the stairs, My home is a pet friendly home so your furry friends are welcome on the furniture and every area of the house.

About: Hi! My family has always had dogs for as long as I can remember. From puppies madness to senior sunsets, I’ve loved every stage that comes with having pets. During summers I’ve provided in house care for neighbors pets allowing them a “vacation” from staying home all day. I would be more than happy to get to know your pet as well as yourself ! I am currently a graduate students at UD only taking classes 2 days a week. I am quite flexible with hours and more than happy to include daily walks and visits into my routine!

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a child. My family always had cats, and I’ve also had experience with dogs and had a pet rat. I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I will treat every pet with love, attention, and care. work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. My daughter is at school during the day. On Thursdays and Fridays, I work outside the home in the morning until noon, but I am available afterward. I’m also available on weekends. I’m a calm, patient, and caring person who always tries to understand each pet’s needs and follow the owner’s preferences. I’m physically active and love going for walks, so I enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m responsible, attentive, and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

She was kind, responsible, and thorough with their complicated routines and honored any small request and answered any question I had about them. Quin is amazing and I will be booking again! :)”

About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up in a home with Rottweilers, which taught me early on the importance of proper care, structure, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve lived with rescue dogs and have also fostered dogs in the past, gaining experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and routines. Currently, I live in a home with a rescue St. Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog. While they aren’t my own dogs, I spend a large amount of my time caring for them, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as dogs who may need extra patience and understanding. I’ve worked with many breeds and mixes, including Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, French Bulldogs, St. Bernard, Labs, Doodle mixes, Pomeranians, Boxers, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback. I understand that every dog is unique, and I always aim to provide care that meets each dog’s individual needs while making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work part time as a yoga teacher and 3 days a week in a hospital setting. This allows me to have a flexible schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and weekend (when I am not at the hospital) for daytime visits to take your pets out on walks, stop in for potty breaks or afternoon lunch/snacks. I currently do not have any pets of my own which makes overnight stays to care for your pets easy. I will come to your home for to care for your pet and offer them the services you wish to have for them. Whether that be overnight stays, daytime dog walks, offering meals, or even just some outdoor playtime in your backyard.

About: I’ve always loved animals and naturally get along with them. I have two cats of my own and I’m also comfortable around dogs through my family. I’m patient, gentle, and good at giving pets time to feel comfortable around me, especially shy or nervous ones. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and give them plenty of attention and care. I’m home most of the day, so my schedule is fairly flexible and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’m able to fit walks, drop-ins, and pet care into my daily routine while keeping a manageable schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they need. I care for pets in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, give them attention and playtime, clean up after them, and provide walks or potty breaks when needed. I also make sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away.

About: I have an elderly dog with various medical conditions including diabetes. I am comfortable administering her insulin and making sure her medications are taken with meals. I have cared for cats and dogs alike when friends are out of town. Often, it is walks, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and providing fresh food and water. I am a school-based occupational therapist with a lighter schedule, looking for a fun way to fill my time. I love going out on walks and getting a couple extra steps in. In a clients home, detailed instructions and honesty about a pets personality and reactivity is key. This ensures both mine and the pet’s safety when caring for them in a way that the owner, pet, and I are comfortable with.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals. I’ve cared for birds, dogs, and currently have two cats. I truly love having pets in my life and always provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether it’s a playful pup, a curious bird, or a shy cat, I treat every animal with patience and respect, making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I currently am a pilot with my commercial license, and I’m studying and getting ready for my next license. I occasionally do DoorDash, but aside from that you could find me at home hitting the books, cuddling with my cats, and occasionally going on one to two hour flights to practice my skills. This job is perfect for me because I love animals, I have the time to care for them, which includes making frequent visits, overnight care, and whatever else is needed. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable space filled with love and attention. I keep their routines consistent, including feeding, playtime, and rest. With two cats of my own, I’m experienced in creating a calm environment and managing litter boxes thoroughly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine and comfort. I make sure to give plenty of affection and engagement, keep the space clean, and communicate regularly with the owner to share updates and any observations. I’m super playful and active with my cats—I love keeping them engaged with toys and games. I also enjoy going on walks myself, and if my cats didn’t hate going on walks, they’d be my perfect walking buddies! While I can’t take my cats on strolls, I’m all about making sure your pets get the right amount of exercise and fun, whether it’s playtime at home or walks outside. I also love teaching pets new tricks and spoiling them with toys and treats—because every pet deserves a little extra fun and love.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of different sizes for a few years now. I love animals and since I have none of my own; I thought pet sitting would be the best opportunity for me to meet people, their families and their pets 😄 I am currently working part time now, so I have lots of time to care for and play with your cats & dogs! I love animals and since I have no pets of my own; this is the best opportunity to show my love for them!! I will definitely make sure your pet(s) is cared for with fresh food and water; also treats ( by owner direction. ) I will also make sure that the environment is safe during my visit, and will definitely reach out if I see anything questionable! I will also provide playtime with your pet(s).

Jasmin was great! She stopped by twice a day while we were away for the weekend and looked after our cats, Morgy and Mimo. I was a little worried with Morgy being shy around new people and not coming out to eat but was so happy to see the photos Jasmin posted she was able to get our shy boy out and fed. She's communicative and easy to work with even stopping by before we left just to get a proper in person walk through.

Harsh was amazing. I had a lot going on at my parents’ house and needed someone last minute. He showed up within 20 minutes of my request without hesitation. He was respectful, polite, and treated my cats like they were his own. I only had to explain things once and he understood everything right away. He made a stressful situation so much easier for me. I’ve already booked him again for a future date and would absolutely recommend him. Your pets will be in safe hands with Harsh.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Edison

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Edison is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 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 10,157 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Edison. 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 Edison. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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.

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.
