“Our family was looking for a cat sitter while we were away on vacation. It was just the weekend prior to our leaving and I still hadn’t found anyone. Fortunately Lisbeth responded to my request and I’m so happy she did!! She took great care in getting to know them, caring for them and communicating with me. I know they all felt comfortable around her. She provided peace of mind and it’s often hard to find. Thank you Lisbeth! We will see you again in August lol”
“Kathryn was eager to meet my boys prior to our trip. This puts everyone at ease. It’s something I look for when choosing a new pet care provider. Kathryn followed all my instructions and was communicative all during our trip. My boys were happy and content when we got home.”
“Wonderful job taking care of our bunny. Daily drop ins were a success. She went above and beyond when our bunny ran out of pellets and ran to Petco for a refill. She even brought in our mail daily. She provided updates and pictures daily! I would totally trust Jenn in the future! She makes it easy to vacation knowing our bunny is in good hands.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and can’t imagine a home without them! I’ve had my own pups since I was little and currently share my days with my dog, Jagger. Since I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I truly treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work from home, which makes my schedule very flexible. I love spending time with dogs & cats and giving them plenty of love, playtime, and care. My goal is to make things easier for you while ensuring your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved. Please let me know if your dog or cats has any special needs, routines, or behaviors I should be aware of—like medication, dietary restrictions, or separation anxiety. I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m great with dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels, but it’s helpful to know their personality and what makes them happiest!
“I have a 130 lb female Great Dane who isn’t the easiest to handle, but Bryndon was absolutely amazing with her. Highly recommend to anyone — especially if you have a big pup who needs a little extra attention!”
“Liz was great watching my cats! She sent me lots of pictures and spent plenty of time with them to make me feel comfortable while I was away! She even got my shy cat out of her shell in just two visits which made me so happy to see while I couldn’t be there with them. Great communication from her and overall just such a great help while I was gone.”
“Scarlett is wonderful! We will continue to trust her with our boy as long as she continues to dog sit! She is reliable, attentive & our dog absolutely loves her. She has also helped us when we’ve needed help at the last minute and we are so appreciative!”
“Alex did a fantastic job checking in on our cat during our vacation. He bonded with her right away and sent us great photos on a regular basis. If you need someone to take of your cat, look no further than Alex.”
About: I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats for many years and truly love spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take pride in providing personalized care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are in good hands. I have a flexible schedule and will fit you and your fur baby into my schedule. I am a very calming, sweet person and look forward to meeting you and your pet! I cannot have pets in my home, but I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I will follow and instructions you have and will ensure your fur baby is taken care of!
“Alexa was extremely responsive and professional throughout! She provided a thorough description of how my cat did while we w the vet away. My cat seemed very happy when we came back. Will definitely rebook!”
“She is absolutely amazing. Always kept me updated and asked questions if needed to know anything. She is very thorough and took care of my dog and he was her own. 100% recommend if you want you fur baby to be loved while you are gone.”

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Paramus on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Paramus. On Rover:

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.
