“I’m so happy that we had Sara come to take care of our two indoor cats, and also the outdoor neighborhood cats. She was prompt, thorough, and dependable. She made sure my furbabies had everything they needed including lots of love. She gave me peace of mind that they would be well cared for while were we away for a few days. Highly recommend and we will definitely book her again. Thank you, Sara!”
“Sara is our go to kitty sitter- she is amazing and our kitties love her. She is attentive to each kitty and goes out of her way to let us know how they are doing. Highly recommend Sara!!”
“Melissa was outstanding with Luna!! We had a meet-and-greet before our first day to make sure Luna was comfortable. She immediately gravitated to Melissa, who was diligent in asking questions and making sure she would be as prepared as possible. Melissa was a fantastic communicator, quick to respond and provided amazing updates with lots of great pictures! We will absolutely be working with Melissa again and have already requested her for another visit for Luna!”
“Atlas was absolutely amazing! He took fantastic care of my little guy, had a kind presence, and I appreciated he was patience with my last minute request and schedule adjustments. I would definitely book with Atlas again!”

I am currently free every day and all hoursof the week except for Fridays between 11am-5pm! Anything before 11 AM or anything after 5 PM on a Friday will work for me! I live in a pet friendly neighborhood lots of areas to go for walks and lots of furry friends next-door! My home also has plenty of room for them to roam around and play!
“Alexandra took great time and care in watching my nearly 18 year old Westie. He moves slow and takes time to warm up so I greatly appreciated her approach and communication!”
“Amazing, simply amazing. Always responsive, took extremely cute photos. I've never had a sitter with such amazing communication, let me know of anything that was going on including the pet feeder getting unplugged, made sure to give extra food to make up for it. My kitties loved her”
“Britanny is always on time and has been wonderful in keeping up with my pup's training. He felt comfortable with her from the start and I am sure looks forward to seeing her once a day. She provides great photos, videos, and updates so I can have peace of mind while at work.”
“Super communicative and so easy to work with! Went above and beyond for my old lady baby. As long as he’s available, Cameron is the only one I’d book for future visits.”
About: Even as a kid I was taking care and spending time with my elderly dog Rusty, so dog care comes naturally to me. I will always stay with your pet and make sure they are always happy, fed, and full of love! I'm currently working between 25-40 hours but my relationship with my employer is amazing, I can request a schedule change or even take days off for when you need me I will always be attentive and aware to your pets needs and ensure they will never feel neglected and are given the love and care they more than deserve!
About: I’ve had pets (mostly dogs) my whole life. I’ve also cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule and feel it would be a win-win to incorporate some interaction and movement into my days while caring for someone’s pet. I work remote so weekdays are very flexible. Early mornings and lunch time would be most available. Ideally would be caring for pets in/around the Daffin park area. I have 2 indoor cats, so I am not able to have other pets stay at my home. I am happy to take care of other pets in the client’s home.
About: I'm a dog and cat mom and understand that pets are family. I’ll send pictures from our visits, playtimes, and walks so that you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm available for drop-in visits and walks 7 days a week. So whether you are out of town or having a long day at work you can count on me to take care of your furry friend. Please note, I do not accept drop-ins past 7pm for new clients. I will consider later visits for return clients. I treat your pets like my own. In addition to providing loving company and playtime, I'll ensure they are safe, fed, and have plenty of fresh water. I'll make sure their environment is clean and well maintained. Plus, I'll send pictures and updates from each visit.
About: PLEASE READ TO THE VERY END: I have so much love and care to give to your loved ones. Your pet will feel very comfortable in my home and in my care. I have a large fenced-in backyard. I don't have any dogs of my own - so if you have a dog(s) that don't get along with others - they will fit perfectly at my home. Note: I do have a full-time job but I work close to home so it is easy for me to check in during the day. Flea treatment is a must for all dogs. Thank you! (FYI - if you crate your dog I do have one at my home that you can use and I have plenty of bowls and toys!!) I do work full-time - Monday thru Friday - however, I am only 3 miles from my house so running home during the day is no problem. I have a fenced-in yard - and if dogs are required to be crated while I am not home I do have two different size crates - I also have baby gates if need to separate dogs - mostly at feeding time.
“Ollie has really enjoyed having Emma Jane stop by for bathroom breaks and playtime throughout the week. It’s put me at ease knowing Ollie has someone to check on him while I am at work. Ollie looks forward to her visits!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ridgewood
Madelynn is so sweet, she’s patient with my very shy cat, respects his boundaries well & loved on my other two who wanted it! She communicates very throughly throughout the experience! Definitely recommend her if you are nervous about leaving your babies, they’re in good hands with her!
Amazing as always!! We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She was absolutely wonderful with our cats and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Communication was always excellent, and we loved getting regular pictures and updates. She was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our cats were happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them, and we came home to two very happy kitties! We would absolutely recommend her
Amy went above and beyond! All of our cat’s needs were met and then some. Furthermore, she’s incredibly understanding, kind, and responsible. The photos we received daily were plentiful and adorable too. Couldn’t have chosen a better person for this job while we were away!
Shelby is an amazing pet and home sitter! She recently watched my place and my incredibly shy cats, and the experience was flawless. Shelby went above and beyond to make sure my cats felt safe and secure, and her communication throughout the entire stay was fantastic. It is rare to find someone who takes such wonderful care of both your home and a timid pets. Professional, trustworthy, and kind—5 stars all around!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ridgewood on Rover is $18.25 per visit (as of September 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 Ridgewood. 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.
