About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.
“My kids/doggies loved Christina. After her visit, and I got home they were looking for her. I will definitely book her again, she also send me pics of her and the dogs. I thought that was soo sweet.”
“Shannon did an amazing an amazing job with my two kittens and was great with updates and making sure I knew what was going on while I was gone. Will definitely be rebooking her!”
“Katie is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my kitties and kept me updated with lots of photos—not only of them but also of other areas of my home that she thoughtfully looked after. I felt completely at ease while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Katie again for future trips. Thank you so much, Katie!”
About: I've volunteered with an animal rescue for 8 years now. I know how to administer oral medicine, handle feral or very anxious furbabies, I'm fearless and very lovable. Animals are the humans most wonderful friends. I know basic dog training as well. I have open availability at this moment in time unless I have planned events. I'm planning to start school soon but most of my classes would be online so I will be home. If you have a certain routine or schedule with your babies I'll do my absolute best to follow in your foot steps for them. ❤️
About: experienced, reliable, and genuinely dog-obsessed sitter who treats every pup like family. Whether your dog is a high-energy zoomie professional, a couch potato connoisseur, or a “needs three belly rubs before bedtime” type, I’ve got them covered. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care throughout the week. I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but I have a very flexible job that allows me to leave during the day for potty breaks, walks, or check-ins as long as the location isn’t too far away. This means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily accommodate midday care to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. I have had dogs and cats my own. So I am very comfortable with creating. I do not have a gated fence but I live in a nice town where there are sidewalks for long walks.
“My cat is always excited when Gabby comes to visit! He’s a social kitty and loves playtime and cuddles. Gabby is professional, friendly, communicated well, and always cares for my kitty well. I know Clancy is in good hands with her!”
“The best! The boys loved Julianna and warmed up to her right away! She is super experienced with all different dogs from all walks of life! Felt so comfortable with her watching over the boys! Would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter.”
“Curt was easy to work with. I have a big dog that I trusted Curt with and a sometimes difficult reactive dog. It is hard to find someone who is patient with my difficult dog so it was nice to be able to get away for the night and know my dogs were safe!!!”

About: I’ve had animals all my life! I don’t mind big dogs or cats and I will make sure they are taken very good care of! I am trustworthy and hard working. I’ve served in the military for 8 years as well. Weekday/weekend Early mornings, early evenings, and late nights are best for my schedule. I will make sure to accommodate any special requests or extra time too. I have a cat who is 11 years old and she is afraid of her own shadow. We thought by getting a kitten it would help bring her out of her shell, but it made her very stressed. We had to give the kitten to our best friends to ensure our cat lives a happy stress free life.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Seaside Heights
I can’t recommend Taylor highly enough! She took wonderful care of my dog, cat, and even my hermit crabs while I was away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which really put my mind at ease. All of my pets were clearly happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It’s not easy finding someone you can fully trust with your animals, but Taylor is truly one of a kind. I’ll be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 652 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Seaside Heights. 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 Seaside Heights. 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.
