About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat owner with 8 years of firsthand experience caring for my own cat. I understand that cats have their own personalities, routines, and comfort levels- some want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer a little space and time to warm up. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime, attention, and plenty of love (on their terms, of course!). I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable following detailed routines so your cat can stay happy and comfortable in their own home while you’re away. I also know how reassuring it is to see that your cat is doing well, so I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates after each visit. I’ll care for your cat the same way I’d want someone to care for mine. 🐱❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily fit cat drop-in visits on nights and weekends. I’m available throughout the week after 5 pm and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits on weekends. I know cats thrive on consistency, so I’ll do my best to keep their feeding, playtime, and care routine as close to normal as possible while you’re away! Your cat’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During drop-in visits, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and your cat’s normal routine so they can feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible in their own home. I’m always mindful of doors and windows to make sure your cat stays safely inside, and I’ll respect your home as if it were my own. I’ll make sure food and water are refreshed, litter boxes are clean, and your cat gets the attention, playtime, or space they prefer. I’ll also send photos and updates after each visit so you can relax knowing your cat is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐱🐾
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 6 years old. One of my beloved dogs was part of my family for 20 wonderful years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of a dog's life—from energetic puppyhood to senior care. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I always take the time to help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Since I work from home most of the time, your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I only host one family's pets at a time, so your dog will enjoy a calm, clean, and low-stress environment with personalized care. I'm happy to follow your pet's feeding schedule, walking routine, medication instructions, and any special requests. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your dog is in caring hands. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide flexible, attentive care throughout the day. Your dog will enjoy regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, daily walks, playtime, and lots of companionship. I only host one family's pets at a time, so your dog will receive my full attention in a calm and comfortable home environment. I'm also happy to follow your dog's normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a very pet-friendly community with spacious green areas, scenic walking trails, and multiple nearby dog parks, making it a wonderful place for daily walks, exercise, and enrichment. Since I only host one family's pets at a time, your dog will enjoy a calm, personalized experience with plenty of attention and companionship. Every outdoor walk is on a secure leash, and I'll provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your dog is in caring hands.
“Jun is amazing! She truly loves and cares for the pets she looks after. She followed all my instructions, sent me daily updates, and made sure my cat was happy and comfortable. I highly recommend her! 🐾❤️”
“We’ve booked with Irisdelie multiple times to care for our cats, Chai & Latte, and she is absolutely wonderful. She’s extremely attentive, very responsive with updates (our favorite to read while away), and it’s clear she truly cares about animals and takes pride in her work. Our cats adore her and we always feel completely at ease when they’re with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Deliris was a great help! She took her time with my kitties and gave them some very needed interaction. She is a great communicator and never left me wondering about what was going on. I would definitely book her again!”
“Nicolle was a wonderful sitter to my cat while I was out on a holiday. She took great care of her while also making sure my home was in a good state for my cat. She is very caring and so loving towards my cat. She played with her, brushed her, petted her. She also made sure all the details were taken care of. Will recommend her and take her services once again :)”
About: I have grown up around pets and I simply adore them! Growing up, we had 3 dogs and a cat in our home. I am an attentive, gentle and patient care taker. I am currently in between jobs and am available most weekdays to take care of the animals. Please check my availability to see if you need my services during any weekends or holidays. My services *House sitting (Dogs and Cats): I specialize in staying right at your home so your pets can stick to their familiar schedule, reduce stress, and receive overnight companionship. *Drop-in visits: Perfect for quick check-ins, feeding,playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddles while you're away. *Dog walking: Reliable, active walks to keep them healthy, happy and exercised.
About: As a dog owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I have hands-on experience with dogs of different personalities and always take the time to learn each dog’s routine, preferences, and boundaries. I’ve also attended professional dog training classes with my own dog, which has given me a better understanding of canine behavior, safe handling, basic training techniques, and how to stay calm and respond appropriately in unexpected situations. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and bathroom habits. I follow care instructions closely and prioritize safety and clear communication at all times. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic training and reinforcement, grooming, and administering medications when needed. I’m patient with shy or cautious dogs and never force interactions before they’re comfortable. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in responsible hands. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and spend most of my week working from home. My mom is also home throughout the week, so there is almost always someone at home with the pets. I typically go into the office from around 9 AM to 4 PM on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This means pets are rarely left alone for extended periods and can enjoy regular potty breaks, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I also do my best to follow each dog’s usual feeding, walking, and sleeping routine so they can feel comfortable and at home during their stay. I share my home with a friendly neutered male cat and a small neutered male poodle. Both are accustomed to other animals. I provide a clean, comfortable home environment and have separate spaces available when pets need quiet time or a little space of their own. Safety is always my priority. I supervise interactions between pets, follow each owner’s instructions closely, and respect every dog’s individual routine and boundaries. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates throughout their stay.
“Tasnuva did a fantastic job on taking care of our cat and keep the place tidy and clean! She took care of our cat well that our cat doesn't seem stressed at all and moreover she was very happy 😊 I highly recommend her and she does the best!!”
“Jade was exceptional! Her communication and photos the whole time were perfect and she bonded so well with my cat. I would absolutely work with Jade again the next time I need a cat sitter. She asked questions and got to know my cat and her habits during our meet and greet and followed all instructions we left perfectly!”
About: ** I currently work a full time job during weekdays but can still provide care before/after my work shift ** I provide high level of care, attention, and treat each animal as if they were my own. I take the time to understand routines, personalities, and needs in order to provide high quality of care. I’m patient, dependable, and very attentive to details like feeding schedules, medications, and exercise routines. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, gentle handling, or special care.

I am flexible with scheduling and able to accommodate last-minute requests when needed. I provide attentive, reliable care by following each pet’s routine closely.

I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort. I always communicate regularly with pet parents through updates and photos so they feel confident their pets are well cared for.
“Neide took such great care of CJ. It was my first time using Rover so I was nervous but she cared for my cat as if it were her own. She sent daily pictures and even a video.”
“Molly was amazing! Super patient and thorough - she was flexible with the booking timings and definitely went the extra mile with helping deal with my kitten’s stomach problems 💩. I would absolutely hire her again!”
“Daniel was beyond responsible and responsive, although I was far away from home he made sure to inform me on each visit regarding status of my senior dog and cat. I know for sure who to contact in the future ! 10/10 overall service”
“Joni was a wonderful sitter for Tigger! She communicated well throughout the stay and took great care of him — including giving him his medication and gently comforting him when he was scared. The only minor hiccup was with the Rover card check-in timing (either forgetting or tapping a bit too early), but that’s a small thing. Overall, I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
About: Hii! I live in Harrison, NJ with over ten years of experience in taking care cats and dogs and five years of foster care. I loooove cats and dogs and I know how to deal with them. I have two very friendly cats at home, but sometimes they get jealous, and if you Drop in at my house they may argue, but they won’t fight. You can always talk to me if your furry baby has any special dietary needs I’m currently working full time and have plenty of time to deal with your furry babies. And I’m totally free at weekends! Please talk with me for the schedule I’m currently living by myself, so I prefer to go to your place and take care of pets. I can always send you videos and pictures of your furry friends and it’s better if you have pets cameras in house.
“We had a squirrel issue while we were out of town that Katrina notified us about and made sure our cat was moved to a safe space in the house. We love using Karina and thankful she’s continued to watch our cat, who is not always the friendliest with new people.”
“Marli is our preferred cat sitter, and we continue to be repeat customers. It’s easy to see that Marli genuinely loves cats and enjoys spending time taking care of my two girls. She sends numerous photos at every feeding, which we looked forward to receiving. She did house sitting with my two girls for 8 days. Everything ran smoothly like usual. Duchess and Maya can’t wait until the next time we go on a trip so that they can spend more time with Marli.”
About: Hello! I'm Audrey E, and I'm thrilled at the opportunity to be your next one-off or regular pet-sitter! I grew primarily around dogs, specifically American bulldogs, Jack Russell terriers, pitbulls, Shiba Inus, and lab breeds.

Here is my availability as of October 6th, 2026: • Mondays through Fridays: available all day, including overnights. • Saturdays and Sundays: available all day, including overnights. • I frequently check on the pets to make sure I let them out at the right times to go to the bathroom. • I make sure they have food and water, and refill when needed. • If the pets are cuddlers, I love cuddling with them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Harrison
Irisdelie was so good with me and my cat! Would definitely book with her again and I feel more comfortable with the idea of traveling knowing she is an option. She was so professional, communicative, accommodating, respectful, kind, and she made me laugh with her visit summaries. She did everything I asked for and put in effort to make my cat comfortable. My cat eventually felt very comfortable and affectionate with her, which is great because she is afraid of strangers. Irisdelie also met up with me beforehand and spent over an hour getting to know what I needed and during my trip she took lots of great pics! Thank you so much Irisdelie, it was a pleasure! :)
Absolute amazing! Super thoughtful in taking care of our cat in our absence😌Sent us tons of photos and videos by our requests to put our minds at ease. She also did great work in cleaning up when our cat makes a mess🥲 Would 100/100 recommend Junhui for our furry friend.

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 .

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 .
