We were nervous to have someone unfamiliar come to our home and care for our cats. She did an excellent job, not only did she clean litter and refill both water and food bowls she played with them and gave them attention. We felt at ease when she shared with us the photos she took of the cats and duties she finished. We will definitely use Brandy and Rover again in the future.

Olivia was great with my dogs. It was the first time we took this service and Olivia gave us a lot of peace of mind. Her disposition was immediate, she always responded instantly. We even had a last minute setback and Olivia was there to provide support if needed. Thank you Olivia 🙏🏻

Sarah was amazing with our pup! He loves her so much and she made sure he had no accidents the whole visit. She was so great about keeping us updated on how he was doing and sending photos to keep us posted! We would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet and knowledgeable pet sitter. ☺️

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. They are one of the things in life that make me the happiest. There is nothing more important to me than providing your pet with the best experience possible. I have a contract based job where teach extra curricular activities after school and I also help run a nonprofit so my schedule is pretty open during the day for most of the year. Safety as my number one when it comes to pets. Additionally, when in someone else's home I understand that they and their pet have their own preferences and processes which I always respect.

Jolynn is always great with our elderly cats. Every time she has taken care of them for us she has gone above and beyond to make sure they’re well fed and properly medicated. We would not be able to travel or go on business trips without her help; it is greatly appreciated.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and was fortunate to grow up learning from my father, an experienced police K-9 trainer and handler. That lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, as well as the patience and confidence to care for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I have experience with crate training, potty training, leash training, helping dogs become comfortable around children and other animals, and working through food and toy resource guarding. My goal is to provide every dog with a safe, structured, and loving environment where they can feel right at home. I currently offer boarding in my home and drop-in visits for all types of pets, as well as boarding for up to three dogs at a time to ensure each guest receives plenty of individual attention and care. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I can provide frequent potty breaks for puppies, maintain training routines, administer oral medications according to your instructions, and offer the extra patience and comfort that senior dogs often need. I intentionally limit boarding to just three (sometimes four) dogs at a time so every guest receives individualized care and attention. For your convenience, I also offer flexible pick-up and drop-off services for an additional $30 each way. For boarding stays longer than three days, I may require a doggy daycare trial of at least four hours. This gives your pup the opportunity to become familiar with my home and allows us to make sure we’re a great fit for one another before an extended stay. For the safety and well-being of all pets in my care, I may ask for proof of current vaccinations (required) prior to boarding. Every day is centered around providing a calm, structured, and enjoyable experience for the pets in my care. We spend time playing, enjoying supervised outdoor time, and fitting in plenty of cuddles and enrichment throughout the day. I do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions you provide, so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quiet place to relax, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. We live on a beautiful one-acre property with a fully fenced backyard where dogs have plenty of room to explore, play, and stretch their legs. Because our yard is surrounded by trees and natural foliage, I do require all boarding dogs to be on a veterinarian-recommended tick preventative for their protection. Whether your pet is staying overnight or I’m stopping by for a drop-in visit, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. Since we’re home much of the day, your dog will receive lots of companionship, playtime, and individualized attention. I also pay close attention to each dog’s body language and comfort level, allowing them to interact at their own pace. Teaching my children to respect animals, recognize their cues, and honor their boundaries has created a calm, gentle environment where pets are treated with kindness, patience, and the same love we’d give our own.

About: Loving Home on an Acre – Your Dog’s Second Family! Hi there! We’re a pet-loving family offering dog boarding and doggy daycare from the comfort of our home. With over 12 years of experience as pet owners and more than 8 years of dog sitting, caring for animals is second nature to us. We recently lost our beloved pup, and while we miss her deeply, we’re excited to open our hearts and home to new furry friends. We live on a fully fenced-in acre—plenty of space for sniffing, running, and exploring. Whether your dog loves lounging in the sun or playing fetch, they’ll have the freedom and safety to do what they love. We work remotely and have a teenager who is home from college for the summer, which means your dog will never be alone—there’s always someone here to provide companionship, belly rubs, and supervised outdoor time. We welcome dogs of all breeds and ages, from energetic puppies to relaxed seniors. Our home also includes one very mellow cat who is used to dogs. We ensure a calm, respectful environment for all our guests and treat each pet as if they were our own. If you’re looking for a safe, caring, and attentive place for your dog while you’re away, we’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine. Since we both work remotely from home, we’re here all day to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. Our days include regular potty breaks, playtime, and walks tailored to each dog’s needs and energy level. Because we live on a fenced acre, your pup will enjoy plenty of safe outdoor time, supervised at all times. Whether it’s cuddle time on the couch, fetch in the yard, or quiet moments for senior dogs, we’re fully present and engaged. Caring for pets isn’t just something we do—it’s something we love and live every day. We provide a calm, structured, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Dogs staying with us become part of our daily routine, which includes supervised outdoor time in our fully fenced acre, regular potty breaks, and personalized play or rest depending on their energy level. We’re always home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and snuggles throughout the day. We follow your feeding and medication schedule closely and make sure to maintain any habits your dog is used to—whether that’s crate time, leash walks, or cozy bedtime routines. Our home is dog-friendly, and while we have one cat, they’re used to dogs and tend to keep to themselves.

Angeles was awesome! She responded promptly and was able to accept the job on such short notice. She was a lifesaver. The girls took to her right away and everything went great during her time here. Received lots of photos. I will certainly use Angeles again and will refer her to family & friends. Thank again 🐶❤️

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Newark

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Newark on Rover is $13.32 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 782 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newark. 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.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
