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.
“We have Nicolle drop by 1-2x a week to let our dogs out for an afternoon break and play with them. She's great! The dogs love her and she's very flexible and easy to work with. Will definitely continue to have her drop in and would recommend her for others!”
About: I treat every pet as if my own. With lots of hugs and kisses and treats :) Cuddlers are welcomed to snuggle on my sofa. And for those that like to be pampered, love to groom. I do have a senior dog so I do have experience with them, everything at their own pace. Also have a high energy pet that loves to play with others. Have experience with dogs that pull on leash and can assist with potty training. I do work fulltime but there is always someone at home. Pets get full attention after workdays and weekends. During the days pets are secured in a safe designated area in my home where it is quiet and away from distractions. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly pups that will keep others entertained. Also have a large crate for safe zone. Will do leashed walks to nearby parks. Also can take your pet on short hikes if ok.
“Alison was so amazing with my 2 cats especially my shy boy who never comes out for anyone but made a few special appearances with her. You can tell she has a gentle loving soul”
“Deliris was very communicative and accommodating with taking care of our cats; I never once worried about them in her care! She sends great pictures and very detailed updates. I recommend choosing her to sit your babies!”
“Maryann was very good. She left detailed notes and took great pics every day for us. We felt at ease knowing Mini was being well cared for while we were away for the weekend. We highly recommend.”
“We opted for drop-in visits for our dog and Gabby did an amazing job. She understood the instructions well and was super responsible in handling him and getting in and out of our home. My dog had a great time and we’d definitely hire Gabby again! 😊”
“Jadis was very communicative and good at putting my mind at ease. She went above and beyond. My cats are usually shy but they loved her and came out of their shell with her.”
“Ashlee was an amazing fit for our Banji and our baby took to her very quickly ! The photo updates were amazing, and it was such a joy working with her. We will be booking her again !!”
“Irisdelie was amazing, great communication and so so wonderful with my cats. Provided great updates with adorable pictures after each visit. I felt very comfortable and happy knowing my babes were being well cared for and loved while I was away.”
“Nima was so wonderful with Ollie. She’s a real professional and took great care when sending me photos and videos of him. It was my first time away from him and she was terrific in making me and Ollie at ease. 10/10 will recommend and will absolutely be reaching out to her again.”
“Dan was awesome! He really helped us out on short notice and over a holiday weekend! Great communication and pictures of the kitties. 10/10 would use Dan’s services again!”
About: If you need a kind, positive dog sitter who loves walking a lot, here I am. My grooming certificate is a big plus in case you need nail trimming or having your dog brushed and dead hair removed. Since I work online, my day is flexible so I can walk with your dog and give your pet more attention. Also, waking up early is never a problem. You need to bring his/her food and favorite snacks. I'll give food that you provide according to your dog's schedule. Also, trying to make your dog feel safe is a must for me. His/her favorite toy would help a lot. So, if you could bring a few, it'd be great. I don't allow dogs on my bed. There is a comfy and soft mat.
About: Had a very aggressive dog when I was younger even lead me to getting bit pretty badly but I know dogs don’t know any better and I think they still deserve love and care no matter what which gives me experience with all types of dogs. Currently am a server at night which gives me lots of free time during the day. I’m moving away soon so I’m super available anytime I have a 12 year old bulldog and a 9 year old goldendoodle my dear bulldog is the love of my life I’ve had him for as long as I can remember. He was extremely feisty in his early years but all dogs deserve a second chance
“Jade was so kind and patient with our cat Nutmeg, our feisty girl! Jade sent detailed updates, included pictures and videos; and most importantly, really developed a bond with our cat. Jade is responsive, professional in her communication, and easy to coordinate with. Highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Marlita was wonderful! Super responsive, always on time, going above and beyond. Very sweet and my little fur ball was wall taken care of. Highly recommend her and I will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Molly was very attentive with my three cats. She sent lots of pictures and made sure their litter was clean every day! Molly went above and beyond ! Highly recommend Molly!”
About: Currently a medical student. I've been the primary care provider for our family dog and my best friend "Bama" for the past 11 years. I'm also the go-to friend and family dog sitter whenever the need arises. I have earned trust due to my love of life as a biologist and as a respected Eagle Scout. I know each life form has its own beautiful soul and should be treated with kindness and respect for that reason. I have pet care experience with dogs, cats, mice, and fish. I am currently a medical school, therefore, unemployed and have a lot of time to walk, play with, and give long belly scratches to furry friends. Animals make me extremely happy, so their happiness is also of utmost importance to me. Outside of my own personal experiences interacting with pets, I have also taken many courses in animal behavior and the biological basis of animal learning. I have a very solid understanding of why animals do the things they do and this allows me to adapt to whatever circumstances and/or needs of the pets or animals that I interact with. Whether that be crating a dog, training a rebellious puppy, or interactions with other dogs.
About: Hi! My name is Carlize, and I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since I was 7 years old. I’m a huge dog person and a true animal lover! I regularly care for my best friend’s 5-year-old Australian Shepherd, and we’ve built such a great bond over the years. I would love the opportunity to build that same kind of relationship with your pets, making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m knowledgeable about different dog breeds, personalities, and care needs, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just relaxing with a companion, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. Thank you for considering me to care for your pet! I hope you’ll trust me with your furry family member—I look forward to meeting you both and providing the best care possible. 🐾🤍 Hi! I currently work full-time in an office, so my availability is as follows: • Monday, Tuesday & Thursday: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM • Wednesday: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Friday: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM • Saturday & Sunday: Available all day I’m available for morning visits before work, evening visits after work, and weekend care. I always make sure pets receive the attention, care, and love they deserve, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. 😊🐾 I don’t currently have any pets of my own, but I regularly care for my friends’ and family’s pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure each pet stays on their normal routine. I make sure they’re well-fed, comfortable, and have everything they need while you’re away. I’m a very active person, so I love keeping pets active too! Whether it’s playing fetch, going on long walks, or simply spending quality time with them, I’m happy to provide plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. 😊🐾

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kearny
Siara did an amazing job looking after our 2 cats for a week. On top of the usual (food, water, litter), she made sure to spend some time with cats and do what they wanted to do, be that brushing, playing, petting, or anything in between. She even got our very shy girl to warm up to her in just a couple of days! She was also super thoughtful and flagged an issue with automatic feeder that we missed and helped us ensure our cats were getting their meals dispensed on time. She also provides detailed reports and tons of pictures, and is great at prompt and timely communication. We hate leaving our cats home alone, but with Siara we felt they were well taken care of and would definitely book Siara again in the future!
Irene did a great job caring for our cat George! This was our first time booking with her for a 5 day trip. George was comfortable with her and we had no issues. Irene was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and followed all of our instructions. We look forward to booking her again!
naveah was a great care giver for my cat and gave me so much peace of mind while away for work. she’s extremely communicative, prompt, and attentive to my requests and changes to schedule when they arose. grateful to have found her and will be using her services again ✨
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!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Kearny on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 12,704 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Kearny. 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 Kearny. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
