“Kourtney watched our two cats while my husband and I were on a road trip, and she took amazing care of them! Every day she sent thorough updates and plenty of pictures. And as an added bonus, our shy girl Faye warmed up to her super quickly! Definitely recommend!”


About: I’m excited to provide safe, reliable, and caring walks for your dog! I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I’ll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic walk or a slower-paced stroll, I’ll tailor each visit to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. You can count on me to arrive on time, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated with photos and notes after every walk so you always know your pet is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend and becoming someone you can trust for dependable pet care! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m able to dedicate consistent time throughout the week to provide reliable walks and attentive care. I’m flexible with scheduling and committed to being dependable, punctual, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Kearny is a welcoming, residential community with plenty of sidewalks, parks, and green spaces that make it a great environment for daily dog walks. The neighborhood offers a nice mix of quiet residential streets and more active areas, giving dogs opportunities for both relaxed walks and exercise. It’s a convenient and pet-friendly environment for enjoying time outdoors with your furry companion.
About: Hi, I’m Melissa! I’m a lifelong dog and cat lover with hands-on experience caring for pups of all temperaments and needs. I have two of my own — a 15 year old dachshund (that lives with my mom) and a 5-year-old pitbull and an outdoor Bombay cat, that stay with me. My pitbull struggles with anxiety and can be destructive, so I understand the patience, structure, and consistency it takes to care for dogs that may need a little extra attention. Beyond my own pets, I’ve cared for a variety of households: * Pet sitting for 4 Yorkies at once for a week * Managing 2 senior dogs and 2 cats in one home * Drop-in visits for dogs needing company throughout the day * And more.. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I treat every pet like family — with love, patience, and reliable care. Your pets’ safety, happiness, and comfort always come first! My work schedule is Mon & Friday 9am-5:30pm working from home. Depending on the distance I can provide walks/visits during my lunch break from 12pm-1pm and any time after 5:30. Available all day every Saturday and Sunday Open to any accommodations that your pet may need. Drop in visits, pet sitting at my home or your home, daily walks, trips to the park, car rides, whatever you may need I am open to hearing about your needs and discussing what we can do.
“Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!”

About: I've always loved animals and have been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I have my own pets so I know how important is to find someone you can trust with them. I'm happy to walk feed play with and give your pet lots of love and attention. I will treat them like they're part of my own family. I work during the week, but I have time in the afternoons and evenings to care for your pets. I’m also available on weekends and can be flexible depending on what you and your pet need. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I’ll follow their normal routine as much as possible, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated so you know they’re doing well.
About: I've cherished the company of pets throughout my entire life, ranging from the tiniest Shih Tzu to the majestic Siberian Huskies. My active lifestyle perfectly aligns with my passion for taking dogs on invigorating walks and spending countless hours engaged in joyful play with them. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I've diligently cared for animals belonging to my uncles, even tending to my neighbor's cherished cats. I've also gone the extra mile to care for Guinea Pigs on behalf of my friends. My affinity for animals knows no bounds, and I genuinely cherish and adore each and every one of them. I’m currently attending school and working part-time so I am mostly only free on the weekends. Most of the time with a heads up I can make availability any day of the week. I live on a completely fenced property and I even have a doggy door for our furry friends. I know a few good doggy parks nearby that I can take our friends to in my car. I will always put the safety of our friendly little buddies first!

About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I provide to every pet. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and specific needs, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m comfortable providing basic training reinforcement, exercise, feeding, medication reminders, and attentive care for both young and senior pets. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, still learning the basics, or needs a little extra patience and support as they get older, I adapt my approach to them. I treat every pet as I would my own with patience, consistency, affection, and genuine care. I work remote and part-time. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m able to build walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and quality time into my schedule while maintaining consistency with each pet’s normal routine. I’m also flexible with different schedules and care needs, whether that means an energetic puppy who needs extra activity, a senior pet who needs a slower pace, or a pet who simply needs companionship while their owner is away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and basic training while giving each pet plenty of attention and companionship. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I also take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, habits, age, and needs so I can provide customized care just as I would for my own pet. I have a small poodle who loves to make new friends, and we can head down to my community dog park downstairs or park up the block. My apartment is dog friendly, spacious, and includes a high fenced balcony for some fresh air. We also share toys if wanted!

About: As a lifelong dog owner and lover I have always taken care of not only my own but been a go-to sitter for my friends cats and dogs. I currently have a 4 yr old yellow lab who may be 100 lbs but he thinks he’s a lap dog nonetheless. I love big dogs as I have always had a large dog in the house but small dogs steal my heart too. I have an extremely flexible schedule. As a real estate agent I am only in the office/area that I work on random days here and there. Most days I am home, going to the gym, or spending time with family and friends, so pet care can be at any time throughout the day. I will always care for your pet and home. Any instructions that you give I will follow, I want your pet to enjoy their time with me as much as I enjoy my time with them!
“Andrew was such a wonderful sitter for my two cats. Both warmed up to him quickly and I felt confident they were in good hands. Andrew kept me up to date with detailed notes and amazing pics. I am so happy to have booked with him and will for sure rebook for future sitting needs.”

“Delphi was a great sitter and was very timely on their visits. I was also sent plenty of adorable pictures of my kitty cats, which made me very happy and reassured me that they were taken care of very well!”


“We were so lucky to find Jazmin! She was on point with communication from the very start and our babies loved her from day one. She sent us nice notes and pics while we were away which made me feel so at ease and I could tell our cats were so happy with her because the home and animals were so happy! Thank you so much!!!”

About: Hello, I have been working in petcare professionally for 10 years. A meet n greet in PERSON is mandatory for my services. It prevents confusion and distrust and i'd like the animal themselves to be comfortable overall. If you do not think this matters in your petcare needs we are not a good fit for another. Do not send me requests JUST before your sitting is needed. I do not do rushed last minute bookings. I make the time as long as my time doing it is respected. This is part of my daily routine so be sure to promptly send updates for care needs. I can offer a wide range of care preferences. Let me know what your pets home life style is and we can go from there.

About: Hi! I’m Leandro, originally from São Paulo, Brazil, where animals were always part of the family. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, many of them rescued from the streets, so caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with so many different personalities taught me that every animal has their own way of communicating, trusting, and showing affection. Some are immediately friendly, others need patience and a little space before they feel comfortable. I’ve always loved getting to know those differences. I have 8 years of pet care experience, and what matters most to me is making sure your pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I treat every animal as an individual, not just another booking. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, affectionate, or a little stubborn, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’m a writer and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets! I love having animals around while I write, whether they’re curled up next to me, keeping me company, or reminding me it’s time for a walk or a little playtime. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, overnight stays, and extended pet sitting. I can easily adapt my day to your pet’s routine, making sure they get the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they’re used to. Having grown up surrounded by dogs and cats, many of them rescued, I’ve learned that every animal has their own personality, boundaries, and way of feeling comfortable. I always take the time to get to know each pet rather than expecting them to immediately warm up to me. Some want affection right away, while others need a little patience and space, and that’s perfectly fine! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I make sure to follow their usual routines, keep their environment clean and safe, and pay attention to their behavior and needs. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while we’re together.
“McKenzie is always a family favorite of ours :) With my cat who requires lots of love and care, I never worry when she is with him because I know she is attuned to his needs. Thank you always McKenzie!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kearny
Joe took amazing care of our two cats. He was very responsive, was easy to communicate with, and sent great updates, pictures and videos each time he dropped by. He also successfully administered the oral medication by syringe for one of our cats which we really appreciated! I would highly recommend Joe!

Rocky was incredibly reliable, attentive, and accommodating! He went above and beyond by helping me with additional services outside of his regular responsibilities, which I truly appreciated. He made me feel completely at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. I’m so grateful for his kindness and flexibility and would absolutely book with him again. Highly recommend!
Dan was prompt, communicative, and took great care of our fur kids. Both pets seemed very happy with each visit, we absolutely loved the photo check ins, and we were able to enjoy our vacation as a family knowing they were in good hands. I highly recommend him for your pet care needs.
My cats like her and that says a lot about my timid boy cats! So detailed and trustworthy it’s hard to find a stranger to come over your house and trust them with your fur babies but tasnuva is amazing, literally no complaints. Apt was clean and my cats were happy, I’m a fan of her <3

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! :)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She went above and beyond caring for my two cats! She came to my home twice a day and was incredibly attentive, reliable, and thoughtful. She sent me pictures and updates during every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats seemed very comfortable and happy with her, and she even cleaned up after them and left everything nice and tidy. I truly appreciated how much care and attention she gave them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. I will definitely be booking her again! 🐾💕

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.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Kearny is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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.

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.

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.
