About: Responsible, kind and caring. I've cared for my own animals for the past 50 years. I've had, horses, goats, chickens, pigs, dogs and cats. I have experience in wound care and medications including injections for diabetes. I currently work a full time job and want to be available to my friends and neighbors in Linden. This is due to my search for a caregiver and not finding one in Linden. My preference is to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, although having a dog come home with me will work as well.
About: My experience comes from owning not just dogs (XL-XS) and cats, but many animals in my lifetime. To me, living with these animals is the best way to gain experience. I have also done many house sitting jobs for people with lots of pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing. To me, the most important thing is establishing trust with your sitter, and I am a guaranteed safe person to trust any animal with. I’m great at reading animal body language and typically do well with all pets. I work at Panera, so my hours are not crazy, and never are usually longer than 4 hours, so pet sitting works great with my schedule. My college is also online so that doesn’t effect my schedule for the most part. In a clients home, it’s important to follow all of the instructions they provide, while also making their pets feel as if the owners never left.
About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most I’m completely free on Fridays and the weekend. Also I have plenty of time on Tuesdays and Thursdays as half days. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your pet best
About: Hi! I’m Linda, a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for providing compassionate, reliable care. Growing up with dogs, cats, and bunnies all my life, I understand the unique personalities, routines, and needs of pets big and small. My background working in senior care and being a big sister to two younger siblings has given me a natural instinct for patience, attention to detail, and safety. Whether your furry family member needs gentle company, active play, or meticulous daily care, you can rest easy knowing they are in gentle, experienced hands! I’m available mornings 7:30am until 10:30am and late afternoon/nights 7:30pm-10:00pm and all day Tuesday/Wednesday , we can work on your time ! I focus on keeping your pets as comfortable as possible by sticking closely to their normal daily routines. During my visits, I handle feeding, fresh water refills, litter box scooping, cage or habitat maintenance, exercise, and plenty of personalized attention or play. Because I currently care for five cats at home and have looked after various types of animals throughout my life—including dogs, bunnies, and cats—I am deeply familiar with managing different temperaments, dietary needs, and handling subtle changes in pet behavior. I also ensure your home remains safe, secure, and clean while you’re away
“Syndney did an awesome job with my fur babies. One of my cats has diabetes and needs his insulin twice a day and she did that with no problem. She was a quick learner and was always on time. Definitely be rescheduling her again when the time is needed. ;)”
About: Raised in an animal-filled home and currently caring for my own household of four dogs, four cats, and over 20 reptiles, providing attentive, specialized pet care is second nature to me. My extensive hands-on experience spans multi-pet management, exotic habitat care, and handling medically complex needs, including precise oral medications, strict routines, and tailored support for senior or anxious pets. As a dedicated pet parent myself, I know how critical it is to find someone you can truly trust with your family members and I promise to treat and love your pets with the exact same devotion, patience, and care as my own while you are away. As a full-time teacher, my schedule is structured and highly reliable. I am available after school hours on weekdays, have wide-open availability on weekends, and offer flexible scheduling during school breaks and holidays. I specialize in traveling to your home so your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Being an educator, I am exceptionally detail-oriented, trustworthy, and precise when following your established home routines and care instructions. Friends frequently entrust me with keys to their homes for pet sitting because they know I prioritize safety, security, and cleanliness above all else.

“Daniella did a fantastic job with Stark !! She has been responsive and on time every time. She kept up with the updates and stayed in touch with me throughout the visits. Great to have her as the sitter for my cat and I will rebook her again next time I need”

About: I have been around animals my whole life! I have had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, rats, frogs, and hamsters to name a few animals. I’m working full time and I’d like extra income on the side and this is great since I love animals. I’ve used this app before. Make sure they always have access to water. Feeding them twice a day and going potty several times throughout the day and also play time
About: Since I was old enough to walk, animals have been a loving part of my life. Growing up in a household where pets were treated as family, taught me that every dog and cat has a unique personality and set of needs. I am particularly skilled at reinforcing consistent routines. If you are working on leash training or basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay,' I make sure to incorporate those into our walks so your progress doesn't stall. I am also experienced with senior care, understanding that sometimes a 'walk' is more about a slow sniff-around-the-block and some gentle companionship than a fast-paced walk. My professional life is uniquely flexible, which allows me to be a great anchor for an early morning walk or early afternoon walk. I am available Mon-Thurs 5am-7:30am and 3:30pm to 8:30pm. Friday, Saturday and Sundays I am available all day for those walks and check ins that are needed when errands outs are the priority. I will treat your home with the same level of respect I’d want for my own. My process is thorough: I double check that all doors are deadbolted, alarm systems are set, and water bowls are topped off before I leave. To keep you in the loop, I provide detailed Rover Cards after every visit. You’ll receive photos of our adventures, a map of our walk, and a summary of all 'business' handled. If a mess occurred while you were away, I handle the clean up thoroughly so you can come home to a fresh house and a happy, relaxed pet.
“Weilin was very good with my sensitive old cat. Even got to pet her! Weilin rescued me when another sitter bailed out and saved my vacation. Thanks to Weilin . She's great ?”
About: Hi, I’m Celeste! 🐾 I’m a friendly, passionate animal lover who has been working with animals since 2018. I started my career working at a boarding facility, where I cared for dogs and cats and handled their day-to-day needs, including feeding, administering medications, and providing plenty of exercise and enrichment through walks, fetch, swimming, and agility. As I gained experience, I moved into dog training and have worked with puppies through adult dogs of all breeds. I have experience teaching everything from basic obedience to advanced training. I’ve also worked in a veterinary hospital, giving me additional experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. I also offer basic grooming services upon request, including baths, blow-drying, nail trims, and ear cleaning. 🛁🐶 I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play, explore, and potty. I also have a separate room where your dog can relax, decompress, or be crated if that is part of their normal routine. Since I don’t currently have any pets of my own, your dog can enjoy a calm environment without having to share their space with other resident animals. 🧼 Clean & Safe Environment Your pet’s safety is my #1 priority! I sanitize my yard daily and use kennel-grade cleaning products throughout my home, crates, and yard to maintain a clean and sanitary environment for every pet in my care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, and I want you to feel confident knowing they are safe, comfortable, cared for, and treated like family while you’re away. ❤️🐾 I’m a stay at home mom looking to earn more income! I have always been around animals in my last jobs and this is a way to still do that while being home! I treat pets in my home as if they are mine. I follow the instructions for feedings provided by the owners. I have plenty water set out for the pets during play times or walks. I can do training sessions while your pets are here or offer grooming services for the departure.
“I will definitely use Kelsee's services the next time we travel. She was always pleasant and flexible. I could not have asked for better. She gave us just enough contact with text and photos to keep us comfortable. We knew our 20-year-old cat was in good hands. She also kept the wild birds fed and potted plants watered. Thank you Kelsee!”
“Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!”
“Celia went above and beyond doing a few overnight stays taking care of my senior cat. She is a joy to be around and also cooked us a meal for when we got home. Thank you so much, you are appreciated!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 463 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Linden. 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 .

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.
