“Allie was very reliable and kind enough to make two separate trips to come pick up the key beforehand and drop it off again afterwards. She was also very easy to get in touch with! Our cat seemed happy and well-fed.”

“Jake was exceptional! He graciously agreed to help us at the 11th hour when another sitter fell through before our week away. Jake was prompt, followed directions perfectly, and so sweetly went above and beyond to make sure the house was clean and tidy when we got home. He actually spent extra time with our little guy, which was such a relief to us (we all know the degree of self-torture we go through when leaving a pet at home), and we could really tell that Jake is an animal lover. He sent us awesome pics and updates-it helped us enjoy our week away. Jake was generous with his time and effort, and we will absolutely be asking him to sit for us again!”

About: I’m a reliable and caring college student who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I’ve had my two cats for the past two years, so I’m used to feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable every day. I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, and keeping them company while they were away. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked as a private caregiver and in customer service, which has taught me how to be responsible, patient, and dependable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a loved one, whether it’s a person or a pet, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student and work part time so I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I’m available on many weekdays and weekends and will always make time to give your pet the attention, exercise and care they deserve. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you know your pet is in good hands. I know every pet has their own routine, and I always do my best to stick to it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve cared for my own two cats for the past two years and have also helped friends care for their dogs through feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. My experience as a private caregiver has taught me to be patient, dependable, respectful of other people’s homes, and attentive to small details, so you can feel confident that your pet will be treated like one of my own.

About: I’ve been caring for my own animals since childhood and grew up with big dogs. Today I share my life with an 80-pound hound mix and a Velcro cat. I’m naturally empathetic, reliable, and genuinely happiest when caring for animals. Your pets will always have my full attention, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and gentle seniors. I adapt easily to different personalities and routines, whether that means patience, structure, or extra affection. Got a dog who pulls on the leash? I’ve got you. Got a cat who needs a little extra love and reassurance? I’ve got that covered too. I’m here for all your needs. I do work a typical 8-4 job with other hobbies of mine. But I’m open on weekends and nights! Weekends are pretty open both Saturday and Sunday. Nights I’m available for walks and drop ins after 5pm! I have a fenced in yard. However I am going to prefer to come to your house. My dog is a queen and would rather me not bring home dogs. Lol.

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of different temperaments. I have been a dog groomer for over a year and have handled all kinds of pets, giving me the necessary skills to take care of your fur babies! I work part-time, so I will be able to devote myself to play time bonding and daily walks for your pups and cats. It is crucial that pets are given attention when their other family members are unable to! I have had a dog for nearly twelve years now and have devoted myself to taking care of him both physically, mentally, and emotionally! His happiness is just as important as any other family member.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including a Black Lab, Miniature Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd. Being around such different breeds has taught me that every dog has their own personality, energy level, quirks, and way of showing you what they need. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs in my family. I regularly help care for my sister’s two dogs—a 1-year-old Corgi and a 13-year-old English Bulldog. Having both a young, energetic dog and a senior dog has given me an appreciation for how different their needs can be. One may want to play, explore, and keep you moving, while the other may need a slower pace, extra patience, comfort, and a little more attention. I also frequently care for a French Bulldog in my family when his dad needs someone he trusts to look after him. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog individually and learning their routines, personalities, favorite activities, and little quirks. I also have experience caring for Ozzie, my mom’s boyfriend’s 7-year-old Whoodle. Spending time with Ozzie has given me even more experience caring for an adult dog with his own personality, routines, and preferences. I enjoy taking the time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy rather than assuming every dog needs the same type of care. And of course, I can’t forget Mochi, my boyfriend’s approximately 5-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix. Mochi is another special part of my life and has given me even more experience getting to know a dog’s individual personality, routines, habits, and quirks. Caring for him has also taught me that sometimes the smallest dogs have the biggest personalities! What makes pet care special to me is that I don't look at it as simply a job or a checklist of feeding, walking, and letting a pet outside. Your pets are family, and I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. I’m naturally very patient, attentive, and nurturing with animals. I pay attention to the little things—whether a dog needs some extra exercise, some quiet time, reassurance in a new situation, or simply someone to sit beside them and give them some love. I’m also comfortable giving pets the time and space they need to warm up to me rather than expecting them to immediately feel comfortable. Whether your pup is a playful youngster, a laid-back senior, or somewhere in between, I’ll take the time to understand what makes them happy and make their care feel as close to home as possible. And because I’m a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely believe that four little paws come with a whole lot of love—and deserve a whole lot right back. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when available. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. I communicate openly with pet parents and do my best to be dependable and flexible with scheduling. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or visiting for a walk or drop-in, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications if applicable, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I’m patient with pets who may be shy or take some time to warm up to someone new, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can recognize when something seems different. I’m also very mindful about doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and keeping pets safely supervised. I want you to feel confident knowing that while you’re away, your pet is receiving loving, attentive care and your home is being treated respectfully. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of all sized dogs since I can remember. Friends and family usually have relied on me to walk, feed, and love their pets. A typical day/overnight consists of a lot of attention/play time, outside walks and potty breaks, and making sure meals are eaten. I have a very open schedule and flexible schedule. I am looking to take care of your pet and give them my full attention in order for you to feel they are safe. While taking care of your pet, I like to give updates with photos so you know your pet is being taken care of! Having your pet in my home I will make sure they are comfortable, safe, and watched over.

About: Most of my experience comes from house/pet sitting in the past in addition to caring for my own pets over the years. My personal experience is with my cats at home and the family dog. In addition to pet sitting, in the past, I have provided daily walks as well as daily visits. I briefly worked at an animal shelter where I administered medication to the cats. I have worked with senior dogs and puppies as well as cats. Now that my children are older I would like to take my skills and use them by providing daily visits and/or walks during the week to generate a side income. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. My own dog keeps me on a regular schedule of walks, feeding, and playtime, so caring for animals is something I do every day rather than something I fit in. I keep my schedule flexible so I can give each pet I watch the time and attention they need, whether that’s a midday walk, a regular feeding routine, or extra time for play and company When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow the specific guidelines their owner has given me, and I treat them the way I’d want someone to treat my own pets or children. It’s important to me that my work is more than a transaction and that everyone feels comfortable and safe.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Long Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Long Valley is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $19 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 802 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Long Valley. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Long Valley. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 89% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
