“Christina was incredible with my cat! She was very thorough, caring, and treated my cat as if she were her own. Christina went above and beyond, even spending extra time with her most days. She also made sure my apartment stayed clean and provided constant pictures and feedback. I felt so grateful knowing that my cat was in such great care while I was very far away. When I returned, my cat was very calm and happy, which shows she remained relaxed while I was away!”
“Andrew always comes in clutch at the last minute! I’ve used Andrew in the past and Timo already knows that when Andrew comes by it’s play time! As always Andrew is communicative, punctual and focused on full attention for Timo while he is here. Couldn’t recommend Andrew enough!”
“Gordon is always great with Asher! He is also really good at communicating and Gordon also makes sure I get some fun pictures of Asher when they are hanging out together. Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Claudia was great! Communicated with me the entire tire and was very patient when we had issues with our remote door lock system. Would recommend and happily use her services again.”
“Maryann was amazing! She made sure my cat was safe and content while I was away. She took great photos and videos every visit. She is my go to sitter! Would recommend her to anyone who wants their pet happy and taken care of while theyre away.”
About: I have worked at many doggie daycares, shelters, and sanctuaries taking care of many types of dogs, while I have been studying for my Masters in Animal Science As a Masters student, I am able to control my schedule to care for all your pet needs on your time! Your furry friends are my top priority! I am ‘Maddies Fund’ certified in Canine Body Language, trained in breaking up and preventing dog fights and ensuring animal safety. As a keeper with Howling Woods farms I am well trained in animal behavior
About: Growing up, my childhood home was affectionately known as "The Zoo"—and for good reason! From dogs and cats to bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, and fish, I’ve spent my life surrounded by a diverse cast of creatures. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve transitioned from a kid who loved animals to a seasoned caregiver who understands the nuances of pet behavior and health. I’m particularly well-versed in specialized care; I can confidently administer medications and manage complex health routines and I’m a dedicated "cat parent" to my own senior kitty who has CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), so I truly understand the patience, vigilance, and extra TLC required for pets with chronic conditions. Whether your pet is high-energy or requires more care, they’ll be in experienced, loving hands. I am home all day with open availability and would love to fit your special furry loved one into my schedule and keep them company! I believe that every interaction should be rooted in building a genuine foundation of trust; when an animal feels secure, they can truly thrive. This bond is especially vital for pets requiring special care or medications—I take the time to move at their pace so that even during medical routines, they feel safe, happy, and relaxed rather than stressed.
“Peter was great and I would definitely book with him again. He was very thorough, prompt, and followed all of my instructions exactly. I really appreciated the detailed notes he left after each visit, and it was clear from his updates that he took his time and genuinely interacted with my animals instead of just rushing through the visits. He made me feel comfortable knowing my animals were taken care of, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and great with pets.”
“Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!”
“It was my first time using Rover and Victoria made me feel less anxious about the care of my puppy! My Henry is only 3 months old and Victoria has been so patient and understanding of his needs! Puppies can be a lot and she’s been so flexible with the times of when we’re in need! Thank you so much for being such a warm person! Henry loves you. We’re so grateful! Highly recommend her, she’s the best!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with two dogs and later cared for two cats of my own, so I understand the patience, attention, and love pets need. Since moving to the U.S., I’ve also helped friends by caring for their pets in my home while they were away. I’m responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel safe and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays for drop offs and walks, and I always make sure pets are fed, exercised, played with, and given lots of affection throughout the day. Im flexible so i can have pets over my place as well as the client place. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and routine are. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was little for family and neighbors. I can bathe, walk, feed, and care for dogs. I have 5 cats so I am very well known with how to care for a cat, I can clean litter boxes, feed, and care for all cats. During the week I am available early in the morning before 8am, and I also am available after 3 most days during the week. I am available on weekends at any time. I have 4 cats and feed them everyday. I also give one of my cats medication everyday. I take very good care of my cats, I have watched over a cousins dog in my home and it went very well, the cats never messed with him and he was very happy. I have also dog sat my brothers dog many times since he was a puppy.
“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!”
“Jadis was an excellent choice to watch my two dogs while I was away on vacation. From the very beginning, she made everything feel effortless…communicating clearly, showing genuine care, and keeping me updated so I never felt unsure about how my dogs were doing. My dogs were calm and happy when I returned, which says a lot about the attention and routine Jadis maintained. I could tell they were comfortable in Jadis’s presence. I’m genuinely grateful to have found someone trustworthy. I’d absolutely book her again for future trips and would recommend Jadis to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter.”
“Skylar communicated well and was timely. Moose has a history of urinary issues, and Skylar was very thorough in checking his drinking/eating/bathroom habits to ensure there were no issues.”
“This man is the perfect sitter. In fact, he goes over and beyond the call of duty with regard to punctuality, professional manner and knowledge of cats and their behaviors. Aside from the maintenance issues like food, water, litter, etc., he spends considerable, gentle time engaging with the pet with play and -- if the pet isn't too shy -- affection. I highly recommend his services. DSB”

“Delaney was amazing! She was so friendly, reliable, and clearly cares about animals. She kept me updated with photos and my cats warmed up to her so quickly. She even went the extra mile to clean their food mat and offered to take out our trash so the house wouldn’t smell when we got home. I came back to happy, relaxed pets and everything spotless. 10/10 would recommend — she’s the best!”

This is my second time booking with Victoria, and once again, she was fantastic. She followed my instructions carefully and took wonderful care of my kitty and doggie. She is friendly, dependable, and responsible, which gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her!
Caitlin took great care of my 2 cats for a week! She was on time, followed their instructions well, and sent nice summaries. One of my cats is very skittish and she came out to eat and hang out when Caitlin was there. Caitlin spent solid time with them which is very appreciated. Thank you for the peace of mind!!
Geoff took excellent care of our two cats, Dexter and DeeDee, while we were away on vacation for a week. He was reliable, followed all of our instructions, and kept us updated after each visit with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book Geoff again. Highly recommended!
Melissa was the best care taker for my 3 cats including my elderly one! I was traveling for my daughter’s wedding and this was the first time I didn’t have any available family members to care after my cats. Melissa took great care of them and I didn’t have to worry or stress about if my cats were okay while I was away. I would highly recommend her!
Christina was incredible with my cat! She was very thorough, caring, and treated my cat as if she were her own. Christina went above and beyond, even spending extra time with her most days. She also made sure my apartment stayed clean and provided constant pictures and feedback. I felt so grateful knowing that my cat was in such great care while I was very far away. When I returned, my cat was very calm and happy, which shows she remained relaxed while I was away!
huge thank you for taking such amazing care of Momo! Julia were always on time and communicative for the daily visits！ Momo absolutely adored her, and honestly, getting those cute selfies of the two of you completely made my day! Thank you so much again for everything—you're wonderful! ❤️
Yong was an excellent Rover sitter for my cats. He was incredibly diligent, followed every instruction exactly, and made sure their medications were administered properly—which was especially important to me. He was also very communicative throughout the stay, sending plenty of pictures and thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with him again.
Kat and her family are wonderful! Took time to understand my Ninja and work at his pace so that he could be comfortable, always updated me and doubled checked with me whenever something wasn’t clear. Will most definitely rebook Kat, I highly recommend her very friendly nice and super understanding!
We’ve had several different cat sitters over the years as we moved through different neighborhoods, and Rivera is by far the best we’ve ever had and my cat’s absolute favorite. My cat, who is usually shy with new people, warmed up to her right away. Rivera sends thoughtful updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind when I am away. If you are looking for someone who loves animals and is reliable, she’s the one.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lyndhurst on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 12,152 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lyndhurst. 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.
