“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”
“Kristen is by far the best sitter we have ever had for our cats. A total cat girl and you can she actually loves our cats. She is overly thorough and has a lot of pride in her services and it shows. We are so grateful for her flexibility and willingness to step in when we are away.”
“Andrea took care of my cat over the holidays and was great! She came over to meet her beforehand and sent an update during each visit which I really appreciate, will definitely be using her in the future!”
“She’s been amazing! Super attentive (even took notes at the meet and greet), great with last-minute walks, and always keeps me updated. I’m a pretty nervous dog mom and have met with other walkers before, but she’s the first one I’ve actually felt comfortable with. So grateful!”
About: I have taken care of pets for 8+ years. I have a pup of my own and couldn’t love her more. I am super flexible with my job and can’t wait to live on your pets too. I am reliable, responsible, and will make sure your pets have the best care. I have a flexible schedule and will provide whatever care you want for your pet. I can come as much or as little as you need. I will adjust my schedule to fit with caring for your pets :) I will treat all clients homes with respect. I do not care for pets out of my own home because I live with others. I will make sure to clean up after myself and make your pet feel just as comfortable with me in your home.
“Sydney was great!! She showed up on time and was patient and caring toward my dog who often gets anxious around new people. She communicated with me throughout and let me know how he did on his walk with her. I’d absolutely book with her again!”
“Stephanie was so great with Onyx, going above and beyond during the time she spent with him! She kept us informed, was very communicative & sent lots of pics!! We appreciate her ♥️”
“Kayla was amazing to have for our 2 cats! She gave them love and treats, and was always on time. She did amazing, would certainly ask her to help again!”
“Isabela was a great cat sitter for our feline family. We had never tried a professional sitter before and were anxious about the experience especially the care of our cats. Isabela was very patient with us and our fur babies and made the visits as stressful as free as possible. We look forward to having her for our future trips and I’d bet our fur babies are excited to see her again as well.”
“Ashley was a very caring, conscientious and responsible sitter, she sent pictures of my babies to give me piece of mind while I was out of town. Sheþť followed all the instructions I left. I will definitely refer Ashley with Rover to my friends and family. Thank-you. Lisa Bilotti”
“Lindsey is amazing! She took such great care of my boy, Toby. I was worry-free during my trip knowing she was giving him so much love and making sure he had everything he needed. I would absolutely ask her to watch him again if needed.”
“Highly recommend. Richard took care of our pit bull mix while we were out of town. He went above and beyond to make sure she got all the love and attention she could want. Super pleased with our choice in pet sitter; we’ll definitely be return clients.”
“Emily was awesome! Came before to visit the babies before our actual dates needed and then took great care of them during the entire visit. Would definitely use her again when we travel!”

Andrea did an amazing job taking care of Loki! He clearly loves her, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, proactive, and responsive throughout the entire stay, and even went above and beyond helping me deal with a few packages that were accidentally dropped off incorrectly at my apartment. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book with Andrea again!
I’m so grateful my friend recommended Susana. I was very nervous to find a sitter I could trust so I can resume traveling. Susana was very sweet and easy to communicate with. I felt I could trust her right away! I now feel more comfortable leaving Baby Girl in good hands. I can’t wait to have them be good friends in future visits!! I recommend Susana to anyone who fears for the care of your pet. She is truth worthy and knowledgeable. BOOK HER!!!
I recently went out of the country and I cannot thank Margaret enough for the incredible care she provided for my kitties. Leaving Vader, Gray, and my Outdoor Crew is never easy, but Margaret made the entire process stress-free. What I appreciated most was her exceptional communication; she let me know exactly what was going on with them every single day. Getting those consistent updates provided such peace of mind while I was away. Margaret was professional, reliable, and clearly gave them so much love. I came home to very happy, relaxed pets. I highly recommend Margaret to any pet parent!"
Aline was wonderful with our cat Star. She watched her for a few hours and was attentive, kind, and very easy to communicate with. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and made sure Star was comfortable and well looked after the entire time. We really appreciated her reliability and the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Aline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Alexa is amazing!!! She not only came to rescue when we needed last minute help but went above and beyond to take care of my cats. I really appreciate her communication, photos and that she even cleaned up when it wasn’t asked of her! Will definitely have Alexa help watch my little angels again asap!
Andres was an amazing cat sitter! He followed all instructions carefully and treated my cat with great care. I truly appreciated how reliable and attentive he was throughout the visit. I’m especially grateful he was available last minute when I needed to be away, and I would absolutely book him again! Thank you!💖
Evan was awesome with my two cats. They loved him and appreciated his playing. Evan provided extremely thorough and detailed updates to me in each of his visits and asked any clarifying questions he needed to. I would highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for a sitter in the area.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Glen Ridge on Rover is $26.75 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,676 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glen Ridge. 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glen Ridge. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
