“Chloe is a rare find. She is incredibly thorough and buttoned up- beyond organized with a binder of notes and questions upon meeting you and your pet. She’s exceptionally responsive to check in requests and always goes above and beyond. I came home last night to my mail brought in and she even brought our recycle bin up from the curb. I highly recommend her! So does Oliver ;)”
“Xiomara took good care of my cats! Very responsive and great communication always. Love all the pictures included in the visit card every time. Seems my cats also have great time with her. Would definitely have her again in the future.”
“Anthony was amazing my dog was perfectly cared for. He was really good with and extremely kind. Kept me up to date with everything that was happing with my dog and would always ask if there was anything he needed to do extra. Would highly recommend and will most definitely use again.”
“Sam took great care of my 2 senior dogs. She came exactly as we arranged and was very communicative. Would ask Sam to take care of my dogs again without hesitation. Thanks Sam!”
“Katie was amazing with Smudge! She sent tons of great pics and really took the time to hang with him, not just a quick drop-in. Smudge is a total goofball, and she totally got his vibe. He looked happy, relaxed, and totally at ease while we were gone. Katie has a super warm and friendly presence, and we felt completely confident leaving our guy in her care. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Elaine is so great with our nervous schnauzer. We know he's in the best hands with her and she is very communicative with us when she does her check ins. We will keep rebooking with her and highly recommend her.”
“Excellent cat sitter! Communicative, sent daily photo updates, and followed all instructions perfectly. My cat was happy and well-cared for. Highly recommend and I will be booking Sara’s services again!”
About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages through my volunteer work at HFGDR. I truly enjoy tailoring my care to each dog's specific needs, whether that means high-energy playtime or providing gentle, patient companionship for senior dogs. I am fully available all summer long to provide dedicated care for your pets! With my wide-open summer schedule, I have plenty of time to offer consistent attention, extra playtime, and personalized care. Whether your pet needs long walks, drop-in visits, or boarding, I am ready to accommodate your needs throughout the entire season. I provide a safe, loving environment for all pets. I am also happy to provide drop-in care at your home, ensuring your pets feel secure and maintain their normal routine while you are away.
About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal
“Alissa was great with Ellie! She sent several pictures during her check-ins and reported back on what Ellie did during her check-in. Would definitely recommend to others.”
About: I make an effort to be calm when I am with and around animals in order for them to know they are safe when they’re with me. I am home from college for the summer! I have a lot of free time. Mornings, afternoons, and nights I have available and every day of the week. I’d love to walk your pet around your neighborhood. Cleanliness and organization are important to me, so I would make sure to maintain those areas of your space for your pet!
About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats since I was born, and animals have always been a major part of my life. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable and well-cared-for in your absence. I take the time to follow routines, respect training preferences, and provide a calm, loving environment. I’m also comfortable caring for reptiles and fish, I have a genuine appreciation for animals of all kinds. I am very tidy and maintain a clean and safe space in my home for your pets to thrive in. You can trust that your pet will be treated with kindness, responsibility, and respect at all times.
“V was fantastic. She came over to meet our two dogs before our scheduled visit and both dogs immediately loved her. It’s clear she’s a dog lover! We will absolutely be reaching out again in the future”
About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.
“Bridget is a pro! She has tamed my skittish and tentative doggie—finding a way into her heart w a long patience and tolerance. Very available, responsive and great attitude! I highly recommend her.”
“Samantha was great and provided all support needed for our cats even during one of the worst storms in our town. She dilligently took care of them through the power outage going beyond and above. Highly recommend her services!!!!!”
“This is our second time having Claire take care of our cat and she continues to do a wonderful job. She is reliable and easy to communicate with. We can tell our cat is comfortable around her. Would absolutely recommend Claire’s services!”
“Avery took wonderful care of our two super-senior cats. The peace of mind knowing we didn't have to worry was wonderful. Avery also took photos each day and kept in touch through the app. I do highly recommend Avery to take good care of your pets! Thank you 😁”
About: Since high school, I’ve always had pets around me. When I was full-time Army stationed in Alaska, my leadership asked me to dog sit their pets and ever since then I was the go to dog sitter for our Company. I sometimes spent weeks juggling getting to work in the early mornings and getting home in time to take care of their pets and their homes. I enjoyed taking care of their dogs on the day to day! Im renovating my family’s new house and working in the New Jersey Army National Guard so I appreciate getting some steps in and spending time with pets. I like spending time with pets because they live in the moment. I talk and run with them sometimes when on walks to make them feel comfortable with me.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in New Providence is $25

Katherine was amazing! Helped me in a bind with my cat who has medical needs (he’s diabetic) and needed insulin! She was timely, sweet and had quick responses which helped reassure me given his strict needs to medication. Would love to have her again and would recommend her!
Sheila took wonderful care of our cats for a little over two weeks, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is incredibly meticulous, genuinely loves animals, and went above and beyond what was required to make sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She also kept an eye on our home and alerted us to a water leak in time, which we truly appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing both our cats and our home were in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommended.
We were beyond pleased with the service (and so was our kitty). Stephanie came through for us at the last minute on top of that as well. Everything was kept neat and clean, and although our cat is not the most social kitty, she did not seem at all upset by the presence of a new person in our home and everything stayed right on schedule for her. I could not recommend Stephanie enough and we will definitely use her again in the future!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in New Providence on Rover is $27.75 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 11,674 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Providence. 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.
