About: I’ve taken care of my sweet senior dog for all of his nearly 18 years. I fully understand that seniors need a little extra love and attention 🩵 I’ve also been the default dog and cat sitter for friends when they have needed it. I have experience giving medicine and eye drops for dogs. I’m also happy to learn any other medical care needs if needed! My little guy passed recently, so I’m just here to give your fur babies some love while you are away 🩵 I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible and can take breaks midday to walk and play. I’m available for boarding most work days and weekends. I live on a quiet street that is great for walks, and there is also an open yard for quick potty breaks. I have no other pets in the home and only take one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention!
“Amy is the most thorough, trustworthy, and reliable pet sitter I could imagine! I've never used Rover before and have a 7 month old kitten- Amy was incredible this last week for us, even through new years eve and new years day. She was so considerate and came before booking twice to meet peanut, once when we first booked and again a few weeks later before we left for our trip. She took pictures every day and sent it to us, which made my day. In the pictures I can tell my cat loves her and she came out when shes usually afraid of people. I'm so glad we found Amy and I cannot recommend her enough. ❤”
“Thank you so much, Anna, for taking such wonderful care of my cat! You were very attentive and thoughtful, and everything looked great while I was away. I truly appreciate your help and would be happy to book with you again!”
About: While I’ve never had a cat or dog (parental allergies), I’ve always loved them! My neighbors had cats and dogs so growing up I spent a lot of time around them and helped take care of them. I especially enjoy long walks :) I work from home two days a week so my schedule is pretty flexible. I would love to spend my free time with furry friends! Your pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll be attentive to your pets’ needs and ensure they always feel happy, safe, and loved.
About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my schedule is pretty flexible so I have a lot of time on my hands! My daily/weekly routine just consists of working and hanging out with friends! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
“Phil was the best! He was very attentive, kind, and communicative. Mylo was very lucky to have Phil as a catsitter. Will definitely work with him again in the future, and I highly recommend him to everyone!”
About: I can't remember a time when I did not have a pet in my life. Probably because there never was such a time! Mostly dogs, but, I have also been a proud cat owner. I have cared for friends' pets, and I understand that leaving your fur baby with someone requires trust. For several decades, I have chosen to adopt my animals from shelters. I can tell you that it has taught me to appreciate that every animal is different, with their own personality, quirks, routines, and needs. Our pets are part of our family. And, yes, they make mistakes at times, create messes, get into places they shouldn't. They're only human, after all! I promise to bring the same patience, care, and affection I show to my animals into every interaction I have with yours. I am available to walk your dog(s) and will be sure to take then on walks as long or short as you recommend, up to 40 minutes. I can stay and play with your pet for a while, as well. I will work within your guidelines and your pet's routine. I am also available for short overnight stays in your house. I am available for walking, playing, feeding, whatever you need. I will come to your home and am available for short overnight stays, if needed. Overnight stays will fall between 8:00 PM and 8:00 AM. I am available weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I will work within your boundaries. You know your pet best, so tell me what they need, whether that's a long walk, extra water after play, specific treats at specific times, or simply making sure they’re comfortable in their crate or free to roam. You tell me what works for your pet, and I’ll follow their routine. They’re your family, and I’m here to help. Please note, short-term overnight stays are available between 8:00 PM - 8:00 AM.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for practically all of my life. My family and friends would ask me to take care of or walk their pets and I’d always be there when they needed. I’m also used to taking care of puppies and kitties and enjoyed it no matter how tiring it may have been. My schedule right now is completely free other than going to school and so I’ll always have time to be able to walk a dog or take care of them. In my clients home if I’m pet sitting I’ll make sure I ask where their food is, where I take their water from and if there’s anything in their house that is specifically for their pet and remember that spot for future uses.
“Camila kept my boy healthy and happy while i'm away. She's very considerate and accomodating and even picked up the keys from my place last minute before i leave and while i'm on remote meetings. Overall, I would reccomend Camila for being trustworthy and reliable as always. Thank you so much Camila!”
About: I’ve been dog walking for about 3 years and have had the opportunity to care for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Over time, I’ve learned that every dog is different, so I always try to approach them calmly and patiently and let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. On my days off, I enjoy spending my free time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I’m usually available from the morning through the afternoon, anytime before 4 PM. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and make sure they get a comfortable and enjoyable walk. 🐶 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs. During walks, I stay attentive to their surroundings and make sure they are safe and comfortable at all times.
“Ambroja is great. She was timely in her visits and kept our cat well fed and entertained during our absence, sending us photos and short videos every time. It was our first time using a cat sitter and she made the process feel very easy and straightforward.”
“Brionna is AMAZING! I have a 2 year old cat that I recently adopted and was nervous as this was the first time I would ever be away from my kitty but Brionna’s calm and kind demeanor quickly put me at ease! She was so communicative leading up to the visit and throughout. Her daily photos and remarks let me know that Tortellini was safe, cared for and comfortable! Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be asking her to take care of Tortellini again :)”
“Janeth was awesome with our cat Petunia! From the very first communication, she was quick to respond and we scheduled a meet and greet. She was flexible as we finalized the dates of our trip and she sent pictures from every drop in visit. I can tell Petunia was well cared for and I won't hesitate to book with Janeth again the next time we go away. Thanks again!”
“Selina was wonderful! I appreciated her detailed updates and cute photos and videos. My cat clearly loved her which is always a huge relief. I would definitely book again!”
About: As a lifelong dog owner and dedicated pet lover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. Having raised and cared for my own dogs throughout my life, I fully understand the deep responsibility and attention to detail required to keep a pet healthy, safe, and happy. In addition to caring for my own pets, I am the go-to dog sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it’s staying over for multi-day house sitting, providing midday check-ins, or leading energetic daily walks, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I am experienced with maintaining precise feeding schedules, administering medications, reinforcing basic training, and giving plenty of play time and belly rubs. When your dog is with me, you can expect open communication, regular photo updates, and complete peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, trustworthy hands I work from home which means my schedule is flexible! I can help out in between meetings and work with a dogs needs as long as I know ahead of time. If it is okay with you, I also can work from your house and even bring my dog (if your dog is friendly) to spend extra time with the pup! Leash & Apartment Safety: Residing in an apartment means I am highly attentive during on-leash neighborhood walks, always keeping a firm grip, staying alert to surrounding distractions, and ensuring secure building entries and exits. Off-Leash & Trail Expertise: I regularly take my own well-trained dog to off-leash dog parks and hiking trails for exercise. While I only keep dogs off-leash with explicit owner permission, I am skilled at managing energy and maintaining control in open environments.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Leonia is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Leonia
Sparky is our first fur baby, and for years we relied on a trusted neighbor whenever we were away. When our neighbor recently moved, we were honestly stressed about the thought of finding someone we can trust. After interviewing several candidates across different platforms, we chose Alexa. Not only did she have great experience with her own cats and dogs, but Sparky took an immediate liking to her the very first time they met. Alexa absolutely delivered. She listened carefully to every detail we shared and gave Sparky wonderful care and attention. She is incredibly thoughtful and proactive, too—when Sparky coughed up a hairball on our sofa, she cleaned it right up before we even knew about it. We loved the regular photo updates while we were away, and coming home after two weeks to a happy, healthy Sparky greeting us with a resounding meow meant the world. Thank you, Alexa! We will definitely be reaching out again for future trip.
Emily was a great drop-in sitter for my 2 cats for 11 days. She responded quickly to my initial request that she was available. Emily came by my apartment to meet the cats and go over their care before the scheduled visits. She checked in daily and provided pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to have Emily care for my cats again.
Jenny took amazing care of my two cats, Millie and Annie. She made sure all their needs were met and kept me up to date on everything including hairballs and a day my more finicky girl had a so-so appetite. She also made sure they got pets and play, took tons of great pics, and left things looking great for when we returned home! I always stress leaving my girls to go away- with Jenny I’ve had the best peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Absolute recommend!
She is very kind to our cats and they love her. She has no problems, giving them their insulin. She is very thorough and takes out the litter and the garbage when needed. I am so happy that we found her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their babies.

As of September 2026, there are 12,685 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Leonia. 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.

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.
