“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”

“Lisa Marie was excellent with our two high-energy dogs! She was prompt and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”

About: I currently am doing cat sitting full-time, so am available any days/times throughout the week, including weekends. My calendar is updated based on my availability (dates blocked out when I am traveling). In clients' homes, I follow all instructions given by the client. This includes feeding, water refresh, a text update with at least 1 photo and playtime (with belly rubs if allowed!). I also am experienced with giving insulin/medicinal injections, along with oral medications, ear drops and eye drops. I am a hopeless cat lover - I miss them when I'm away and love them with hugs and kisses while there! I understand (and just adore) that each cat has its own personality and needs to be cared for individually. I adjust my play and interactions with each cat as needed. I'm comfortable learning about new cats and how to deal with each personality type. Being the cat lover I am, I would love to give you peace of mind while you need to be away from your kitties. I would require a meet and greet as I believe this is needed to truly give the best service to your cats. If you think I would be a good fit, please place a reservation request. I would love to meet other cat lovers and their cats!

“Gary is the best cat sitter I have ever hired! He showed extreme care and conscientiousness in his responsibilities as my cats' caregiver, always on time, followed all my instructions, and communicated exceedingly well. I never worried once while I was away, and I would give Gary 10 stars if I could!”

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've been caring for pets for a little over 5 years now. I used to work at a pet store handling fish, birds and small animals as well. I have a 5 year old golden retriever as well as 2 cats. I can help administer medications for dogs and cats that need it. I can also care for elderly dogs and puppies. I don't mind bathing them or doing nail trims either. I'm currently a college student doing online classes so I have plenty of time to drop by a clients house or to have them come to mine. Right now Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays work the mest with my schedule. I would be more than willing to negotiate other timings as well. I have a fenced in backyard and a dog to keep yours company. My entire house is pet friendly and welcoming. I can also crate your dog if needed and make the environment more comfortable for them

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge dog lover. As I have yet to get a pup of my own, I’ve been sitting for family, friends, and family friends for more than 5 years, where I mainly housesit. I’ve had experience watching dogs of all ages, from grumpy seniors with medication to lively puppies who need extra clean up time, to anxious Covid babies. I am very detail-oriented as I respect that each dog has their personal routine and want to ensure that not much is disrupted for them when I visit/stay. I understand the importance of keeping in contact with owners (only to the extent that you wish to be contacted) throughout the day. I guarantee that I will take plenty of photos of your pet and will be happy to share them! Note: I am based in LES, NYC for the summer. I work fully remotely, so I'm flexible to working with your pet's schedule when housesitting. I'm available for afternoon walks, or to come to housesit from the evenings usually. I'm also willing to travel to housesit (I've travelled to DC before!), though this would require travel coverage as part of compensation. ***For house sits of 1 week or longer, I ask owners to support in covering my meals. Gift cards or a stocked fridge are very much appreciated! *** I tend to ask clients for a document with their pet's daily routine, and how their behaviours are. I will care for your pets as you would advise to care for them in order to maintain consistency and not confuse them. Afterall, I am the guest in staying in their space should I be housesitting. For walks and drop-ins, I would like to also respect your pet's routine and ensure that they are comfortable and at ease.

About: I have such a big heart for animals and a connection to them with a passion for taking care of any type of animal! I grew up taking in rescues with my family at home. We have rescued a senior yorkie, four kittens, and a deaf kitty. I currently have one 4 year old maltipoo at home and one goldfish! In the past we had fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, and lizards at home. Throughout the years I love participating in anything involving innocent fur babies. For two years I pet sit my sisters french bulldog with GI issues and my brothers cat. At the same time I was in a P.A.W.S (protecting animals without stability) club in high school. I currently volunteer at two animal shelters since 2022. After high school I pursued an associates degree in Biology while participating in a veterinary assistant program. I graduated the program and continued on to getting my first full time job at a veterinary hospital as an approved veterinary assistant! Therefore, I have knowledge on animal anatomy, sickness and care procedures. I plan to complete my Biology degree while working full time and helping to take care of your fur babies 💗 I am currently in school pursuing a science degree while working part time at a hospital. I pet sit, house sit and dog walk. I am available weekdays and weekends for any help you need with your fur babies. I am very flexible and work around school to continue my passion of animal care. I will make sure to socialize and spend quality time your pets. I will take them on energetic walks and make sure they are fed and comfortable!

About: Craft an engaging "About Me" Tell pet owners about the love and care you’ll provide for their pets. Don’t be afraid to brag about your pet care experience, special skills, your personal qualities, and how you will keep their pets happy and safe. What sorts of activities will a dog enjoy on a stay with you? Where will you go on walks? What fun activities will you do together? What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences? Do you know dog first aid and/or CPR? Yes No Can you administer oral medication to dogs? Yes No Can you administer injected medication to dogs? Yes No Do you have experience taking care of senior dogs? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. In a client’s home, I respect and follow each owner’s routines, feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I am mindful of their behavior, body language, and safety during walks and visits, and I always ensure pets have fresh water, supervision, affection, and a clean environment. I understand how important trust and communication are, so I provide updates, photos, and check-ins to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, supported, and confident in the care being provided.

About: Hi! I’m Rebecca! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and I’m currently a proud pet mom to three of my own—a dog and two cats. ❤️🐶🐱🐱 I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup needs a walk and some playtime, your cat needs a little company, or your pets need someone reliable to check in on them, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. What you can expect from me: 🐾 Lots of love, attention & playtime 📸 Photos and updates during every visit 📝 Following feeding, medication, potty, and other routines carefully 💕 Patience with shy, nervous, energetic, or cuddly pets 🏡 Respect for your home and your instructions I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! 🐾❤️ During the week, I work as a paraprofessional at the Matheny School in Peapack-Gladstone, New Jersey. I’m typically at work by 8:30 AM and finish around 4:00 PM. I’m available for pet care before work, on my way to work, and after work, making it easy to accommodate morning walks, drop-ins, evening walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! Weekends are generally very flexible, and I’m usually available for longer visits, walks, drop- ins, and extended care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and schedule whenever possible. 🐶🐱💕 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and any special needs or preferences your pet may have. I’m attentive to their behavior and surroundings and will always prioritize their safety. I also believe communication is important! I’ll keep you updated during visits and send photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own home. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. ❤️🐾

“I would leave more stars if I could! Lily did a FANTASTIC job caring for my 2 cats while I was away. My cats eat only wet food, several times a day, so automatic feeders had to be set up daily. Lily did a great job following the instructions on how to feed them and it was nice returning from a long weekend away to a clean home- clean cat bowls, clean litter box, clean eating area, etc! I cannot thank Lily enough and I will be hiring her again soon!”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Jamesburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Jamesburg is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $26 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 719 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jamesburg. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jamesburg. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% 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 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.
