“Roberta took excellent care of my kitties. She was patient with them and got them to trust her with her kind demeanor and gentle personality. And, she provided me with wonderful photos and videos and updates! Highly recommend.”
“Geri did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She was very prompt with her visits, provided thorough updates, sent pictures, and even watered our plants. We would definitely use Geri again.”
“Jessica was amazing. I really appreciated that she did a meet-up before the booking, and she was so accommodating with it being last-minute. Both of my cats loved her upon meeting her, and they were both so calm and happy when I came home. Jessica was so responsive and helpful, and I loved that she took pictures of the cats each drop-in! I looked forward to those so much while I was away. Thank you, Jessica!! ❤️”
About: I grew up with 3 dogs and had one of my dogs pregnant twice and so I took care of her puppies until they were ready to go with a new family. I’d make sure they were given to the right family. I like to walk dogs to make sure they can be active and won’t get bored. I make sure to clean up after them and make sure they’re fed. Playing with them is the best part of having dogs. Unemployed currently so I have a good amount of free time. I have taken a step back from this app for a few years. Since I have more availability I’d like to come back into this and help owners to make sure their animals have a good experience with my service. I love going on a walk, I can be your dog(s) walking buddy. I do also enjoy chilling and play some toys with dogs or the cats. I’ll match their energy. As long as everyone is comfortable and happy in the end. I have a fenced backyard and front porch with screening doors. The living room has a lot of space so the dogs or cats can chill.
“Adriana, Thank you so much for taking such great care of Zoey while we were away. We really appreciate it, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Thanks again!”
About: I have had a plethora of pets my whole life. I have a lot of experience with senior/special needs cats and dogs and other critters but love pets of all ages! I have a very flexible schedule and I am very active and would love to take your dog on a long or short walk! I also appreciate chilling on the couch with my furry friends as well. I am a very calm person and pets seem to warm up to me easily. I enjoy both dogs and cats and have experience taking care of almost any animal.
About: In my undergrad I got the opportunity to take care of many sweet and loving cats. All with various personalities and play styles. Roommates and friends entrusted me with caring for their cats when they went home or on vacations. I follow all rules given to me by owners to a T! I would feed the strays in the neighborhood and enjoy just watching them from a far. Im currently looking for weekend jobs as I do have a job I work during the week. However if you need morning drop ins Tuesday and Thursday or afternoon drop after 3 Mondays and Fridays, I can happily help with that as well. I am there to respect you and your baby’s home. Leave out instructions for me and I will follow them closely. I want to learn your baby’s personality and will watch for signs of stress as I know meeting a new person is scary. I will only go in places of your home that I am allowed to.
“We had a great experience with Erik and would definitely book him again. He took excellent care of Simba, who requires medication, and followed all instructions carefully. I really appreciated the regular updates—it gave me peace of mind knowing Simba was eating and doing well. We also have two other cats, so it was important that everyone’s food was monitored, and Erik handled that responsibly. He was always on time and very reliable throughout the stay. Highly recommend Erik!”
“Lucy was the best! She was great at communicating and consistent with her check ins. She even tidied up after the cats. Right from the beginning I felt comfortable with her. Highly recommend!”

I'm most available for overnight stays Thursday - Sunday as well as between the hours of 10 am to 6 pm on these days. I love long walks with your pet and engaging in fun activities like fetch and tug-of-war as well as lounging when they want a break.

“Casey was the purrfect sitter for our indoor and outdoor cats. Kind, reliable, and went above and beyond to take care of them. She even helped us out BIG TIME when we had airport travel issues. 11/10 would recommend and looking forward to using in the future.”
About: 🐶 Hi, I’m Denise — Your Pet’s New Favorite Human Animals aren’t just something I care for — they’re part of my world. I’ve lived with dogs, cats, chickens, and even rescue bunnies, and I understand that every animal has a unique personality and comfort level. I take my time, let them set the pace, and give them affection, patience, and presence. 💻 I Work From Home — Your Pets Get Full Attention Because I work remotely, I’m home with your pets most of the day. That means: Consistent company and supervision No long stretches alone Plenty of walks, playtime, or lap time Your pet becomes my “co-worker,” and I couldn’t ask for better company. I maintain a flexible schedule for multiple breaks throughout the day and evening. I love long walks, throwing the ball or just cuddles while watching TV. I truly love animals and would treat your precious one as if they were my own.

Olivia was amazing! She sent pictures and detailed descriptions every day about our cats eating habits and activity to help reassure us while we were away! Olivia was very sweet and kind she even went above and beyond meeting us the day before to get instructions and the day after to bring us back our house key. 10/10 would recommend and so grateful for her help!
I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have found Giuseppe. I was gone for an entire month for my 2 cats and Giuseppe came every day and spent time with them to make sure they were stimulated. He also made sure to keep me updated and sent pictures regularly! It is clear Giuseppe loves and cares for all animals and it is evident in the way my cats were loved and cared for while I was away. You should definitely book Giuseppe for your pet needs!
Jennifer was wonderful with our cat Star. She came over to babysit for a couple of hours and was attentive, kind, and clearly comfortable around animals. Star can be a little particular about people, but Jennifer handled everything calmly and patiently, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing Star was in good hands while we were out. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
We had a great experience with Erik and would definitely book him again. He took excellent care of Simba, who requires medication, and followed all instructions carefully.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Manalapan
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,873 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Manalapan. 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 .

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
