“We are so happy to have found Stephanie to help look after our lil guy. She was very communicative, caring and patient. I feel we can truly rely on her for future pet care and definitely plan to book again.”
“So amazing! Very accommodating and attentive and willing to keep in touch with you. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs, knowing they would be well taken care of.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve done all the chores that come with them. I’ve had a big dog and a little dog almost my entire life. My big dog is now older, so I have to help him with his arthritis. I’ve had to pick up poop, feed them, walk them, and massage him. I don’t have a job currently, so I’m free for anyone’s convenience! Besides when I have to go to the gym, or when im on vacation. I have a fenced yard and a specific place for them to use the bathroom outside, and also have a pee pee pad inside that I switch out twice a day.
“Excellent care for our fur babies while we vacationed. Erin is very Reliable giving us peace of mind while we were away from home. Thank you Erin love the daily pictures.”
“If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and responsible dog sitter; Jim is your guy! Jim watched Kali for 4 days when we were away and he was fantastic with her and was very communicative. Our girl requires A LOT of attention and he delivered. Jim even texted to ask where the towels were when Kali got wet after a walk. We can’t thank Jim enough and will most certainly use him again! - Dawry, Shirley, & Kali D. ??”
“Sofia is the best! She is so very kind and professional— she took the booking for me last minute when I was in a pinch and went out of her way to accommodate me and my kitty. I felt my cat was so safe and so well cared for in her hands! Thank you Sofia!!”
About: I volunteered at an animal shelter in NC for 2 years. Mostly walking dogs with a few fosters as well. Experienced with big and small dogs. I have a hybrid work schedule. Work remote Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Typically available on the weekends and love to have a dog to hike with. Unfortunately, unable to have pets in my home due to apartment restrictions. But available to come to your home and provide all care. Experience with reactive dogs.
“Olivia was fantastic with our two labs and highly recommend her. She provided such great care as our fur babies looked so happy from all the pics that Olivia sent. Communication was fantastic as well!”
“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”
About: Hi my name is Micaela and one thing about me is that I adore animals! I love all animals so very much. I also feel that I work really well with them. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Most of my dogs have been big dogs so I’m pretty good with handling any challenge that’s thrown my way. I’ve had more aggressive and protective dogs as well as laid back dogs and I’ve loved all. I’ve also worked at local shelters in my hometown and felt that that helped me gain more experience working with varying animals. I trained a couple of my dogs from a young age and though I’m not certified I felt that I did a pretty good job. I’m very patient and very genuine. I also watched my dogs whenever my parents would go on business trips which was quite often so I’d say this is the perfect job for me! I’m a college student but have majority of my classes online so my schedule is pretty clear. I love being outdoors and in nature so dog walking is right up my alley. I also love just chilling at home so I have no problem with that as well. I will always be respectful of others space especially if they are allowing me to stay in their home and watch their animals. I would say I’m a pretty neat person and don’t mind cleaning up if anything is needed. Genuinely it makes me happy to help others around the house if necessary. I used to babysit for a while and would always tidy up when I could find the time. I recently moved and now live with my grandparents and mom. We also have a chocolate lab who’s very energetic and loves to play. We have a fenced in yard and a conservation close to our house so there’s plenty of space for the animals. We love having dogs in the house.
“Sarah did a wonderful job caring for our cat. She paid close attention to instructions and we couldn’t be more grateful to have a great caregiver like her over the holiday weekend. Thank you Sarah!”

“Hailey took such amazing care of our kitties while we were away!!! She sent daily updates and photos, followed their routine, and even got them to come out and play. Having Hailey take care of our babies gave us such peace of mind while we were away. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“This is our 2nd time using Jonathan. We had a vet emergency 1 hr before our flight, and he came to the vet office, picked up meds, and administered them while we were away. Incredibly kind and responsible person!”
About: I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously.

“Wonderful Experience with Kristin! ~* We recently had the pleasure of having Kristin care for our two fur children (Mimi and Luci) while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From our initial meeting, Kristin showed genuine interest and care for our kitties~* Throughout our time away, Kristin provided daily photo updates and descriptions of how our cats were doing. This was incredibly reassuring and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our fur bebes were in good hands. Not only did Kristin handle the basics of feeding and litter box maintenance flawlessly, but she also took the time to play and interact with our cats, which we (and they) appreciated immensely. It was evident that she genuinely loves animals and knew how to make our kitties feel comfortable and loved. In addition to the excellent care of our cats, Kristin also took care of our home beautifully. Everything was in perfect order upon our return, which was an added bonus after a long drive home. Overall, we cannot recommend Kristin highly enough. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and obvious love for animals make her an exceptional choice for anyone in need of pet care. We will definitely be calling on her again for all our future pet sitting needs! Thank you again, Kristin! ~* Love, Jessie, Russell <3 Mimi & Luci”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Long Branch
Maximillian kept us up to date on both our cat and dog throughout his visits with them. We felt very comfortable leaving them with him as we travelled across the world! He will be with them again later this month and we are very happy about it. Highly recommend!!
Jon was fantastic with my two cats, spending even more time with them than agreed upon. Over several visits on a long weekend, he gave them excellent care and lots of play. The sociable one fell for him immediately, and even my nervous girl warmed up over a short time. He’s got great energy and a clear love of animals. Book him today!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Long Branch on Rover is $22.2 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 10,850 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Long Branch. 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.
