“Lauryn was a great caretaker for my cat Theo while I was away for the holidays! She always kept me updated with photos and followed his feeding instructions. I would highly recommend her!”
“Alyssa is incredibly reliable and responsive! Even with a last minute request and during Christmas, she was able to care for our pets. I trust Alyssa in my home and with our cats. It’s an added bonus that she sends pictures every visit.”
“Melissa was amazing and we will definitely book her again. She was so sweet with our new pup Stella and really helped us out in a pinch when our previous dog walker couldn’t make it. She sent great photos and detailed recaps of their walks and play time every day. Communication was quick and easy. She even sent pics and interacted with our cat whom she was not looking in on. Thank you so much Melissa!!”
“Karen was AMAZING! I booked her over our normal sitter because I saw she dealt with exotics. I have 5 lizards and 7 cats - our pet situation is complicated! But she was all smiles, communication, and took time to enrich the lives of not only our cats, but also our lizards. That kind of joy and respect of animals is rare and the missdolittle title really is perfect! 10/10 - I highly recommend her and her services!”

About: I’ve taken care of my sweet senior dog for all of his nearly 18 years. I fully understand that seniors need a little extra love and attention 🩵 I’ve also been the default dog and cat sitter for friends when they have needed it. I have experience giving medicine and eye drops for dogs. I’m also happy to learn any other medical care needs if needed! My little guy passed recently, so I’m just here to give your fur babies some love while you are away 🩵 I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible and can take breaks midday to walk and play. I’m available for boarding most work days and weekends. I live on a quiet street that is great for walks, and there is also an open yard for quick potty breaks. I have no other pets in the home and only take one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention!
About: I am my neighborhood’s designated pet watcher and I also own three big dogs of my own. I have experience with very energetic dogs as well as dogs with anxiety. My dog Bear has epilepsy so unfortunately, I am used to giving medication and taking care of his special needs. I am a college student at Columbia University working a part-time remote job this summer with the US government. My schedule is super flexible. I wanted to find another job that I would always enjoy. I am currently working a part-time remote job at a consulting firm this summer. I am a rising junior in college with a car and loads of time. I am willing to drive just about anywhere and make sure your beloved pets are safe while you are away. I am very reliable, prompt and professional.
“Rachel was responsible, on time, and has a wonderful, caring rapport with our cats. We felt very comfortable going out for the evening, knowing she’d be stopping by. We really appreciated the picture! We highly recommend Rachel and would definitely use her again.”
“Nicole was wonderful during her drop in with our 4 yr old Samoyed. Our pup instantly took to her and Nicole was so kind, patient with her barking, and very attentive to our routine. She is super communicative, punctual, and gave our pup all of her attention. We had peace of mind that our pup was safe and will definitely book Nicole again!”
About: I am a reliable person. If I say i’m coming, I show up. I think animals tend to warm up to me quickly because i’m nurturing. I am a writer, so I am flexible with my work from anywhere during the day, except for the days i’m filming and on set. I have a cat myself at home, i have a 2nd bedroom so i can always use the guest room for your animal if they are not comfortable being around a cat.
“McKenzie is absolutely incredible, and I feel completely at ease every time I leave my cat with her. She sends thoughtful updates, clearly adores cats, and truly came through for me when my flight got delayed and I had a last-minute emergency. I can't say enough good things about her. I'm so grateful everytime Oliver is in her caring hands”

I fully remote every weekday so I am around for every moment. I hope to be honest with you and build a great schedule based on your pet’s needs. I live in an apartment alone with my cat. I have an elevator in case your pups prefer it. I live around several parks great for taking dogs on walks.
About: I have been pet sitting for over five years and have gained experience caring for a wide variety of animals with different personalities, needs, and routines. My background in animal care also includes working in animal shelters, where I developed experience handling and caring for animals from many different backgrounds. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, which has allowed me to further expand my knowledge and hands-on experience in animal care. I am passionate about working with animals and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether your pet needs companionship, exercise, feeding, medication, or extra attention, I understand how important it is to provide reliable and compassionate care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I am typically available for pet sitting in the mornings and evenings around my work schedule, I work four days a week from 7:30am-6pm in Hoboken. (Please contact me directly for what days I work as they change every week.) This makes it easy for me to provide reliable care before and after regular working hours. On my days off from work, I have much more flexibility and availability to spend extra time with your pets and accommodate their individual needs. I always do my best to provide dependable, attentive care and make sure your pets receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away! Between work and school, I carefully plan my schedule so I can provide reliable and consistent care to the pets I sit for. I am primarily available for morning and evening visits, making me a great option for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, dog walking, medication routines if needed, playtime, and spending quality time with your cat. I understand how important consistency and routine are and I will always make sure your pet receives the attention and care they need during each visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely love and do every day. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, which is why I will treat every cat or dog as if they were one of my own. My goal is to give your pet plenty of patience, attention, and personalized care while also giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and experienced hands. 🐱🐶🐾

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ridgefield
Rachel is the best! I typically have a family member watch my two cats while I’m away, so this was new for me to trust someone I did not know with my two little loves. Rachel went above and beyond, in every way. My Rover Card was so descriptive and included tons of pictures. She took better care of my apartment than even I do, haha! An absolute pleasure to communicate with, and so receptive to adjusting to some unexpected speed bumps. She takes her responsibility very seriously and that offered me the peace of mind that I needed while being away. Thank you again Rachel!
Victoria was very professional and attentive. I was a little nervous to leave my two cats while I was away since it was the longest I’ve ever been away from them, and I’ve got a specific situation where my cats don't get along and have a particular setup. Victoria offered a meet and greet and took notes to make sure she was prepared to care for them. I was kept updated after every visit with cute photos, and she spent time petting and engaging with them to ensure everyone got attention which was very important to me. Very much recommend Victoria for your pet care needs!
Emily was really great with our kitties! I was happy that she suggested we have a meet and greet so that I could introduce her to the cats and familiarize her with our place. She was very thorough, asked a lot of questions and ensured clarity of our instructions.
Stephanie took care of my former kitty 3some. After 2 years without any pets I thought of Stephanie again for my 2 18 month old litter mate. She takes care information seriously and has her kitty charges quickly warming up to her. I already have one more assignment for her.
Alixandrya was amazing!! She made my trip all the more enjoyable knowing I could count on her for taking care of Minnie and he actually warmed up to her and came out to say hello & chat with her! He is very shy and cautious but her kindness and understanding helped him come out of his shell Thanks for taking good care of my boy!!
Lily is amazing!! My marshmallow had to be in a cone due to a wound on his neck. Lily did an amazing job keeping me updated on his neck, taking care of him, and administering his medicine. I know I can always have piece of mind when I’m gone and Lily watches marshmallow!
Wen is simply the best. Knowing she is with my kitty for short trips or long stretches where I have to be away is so reassuring. She takes the best pictures, is helpful with keeping an eye on the place. She goes above and beyond. I feel lucky to have found her and my kitty definitely loves her buddy.
Sparky is our first fur baby, and for years we relied on a trusted neighbor whenever we were away. When our neighbor recently moved, we were honestly stressed about the thought of finding someone we can trust. After interviewing several candidates across different platforms, we chose Alexa. Not only did she have great experience with her own cats and dogs, but Sparky took an immediate liking to her the very first time they met. Alexa absolutely delivered. She listened carefully to every detail we shared and gave Sparky wonderful care and attention. She is incredibly thoughtful and proactive, too—when Sparky coughed up a hairball on our sofa, she cleaned it right up before we even knew about it. We loved the regular photo updates while we were away, and coming home after two weeks to a happy, healthy Sparky greeting us with a resounding meow meant the world. Thank you, Alexa! We will definitely be reaching out again for future trip.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Ridgefield is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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.
