“Jenni was great with my cat Sebastian who does not show his face for anyone. He was friendly with Jenni so she was able to send me pictures daily. Her messages made me relax and enjoy my vacation even more knowing that Sebastian was well taken care of. I would absolutely use Jenni again.”

“Thank you! You put Pete's mind at ease. He's just beginning to travel again and the cats are like his children. His anxiety was gone and he loved that Ellen was patient and understood that they both do not come out for most folks. It can make it boring for the human. Lol. So thank you for being kind and understanding! Appreciate you.”

“I am very fortunate to have found Yang to take care of my girls for a week. Yang was extremely kind, trustworthy, communicative, caring, responsible, prepared, thoughtful and generous. In our meet and greet she brought a notebook, connected with my cats and asked great questions before leaving. She offered to bring her own brush to groom my one cat, wore shoe covers to keep my place clean and even brought her own litter bags to take away each day. The level of detail and attention she provided throughout the whole experience was something I have never experienced from a pet sitter and the genuine bond she formed with my cats made me exceedingly assured, content and happy knowing they had her presence and care while I was away. I can’t recommend Yang enough and will pick her as my sitter going forward.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for nearly 19 years, and I absolutely love being around them! 🐾 I’ve raised 3 dogs - 2 from puppyhood to adulthood. Over the years I’ve had plenty of experience caring for friends’ dogs and cats, from playtime and walks to keeping them company and sticking to their usual routines. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved and safe when their people are away. Because I’ve had dogs for most of my life, I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities and ages. I’m patient, attentive, responsible and happy to give your pet the extra love and attention they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your furry family member(s) and make sure they have a happy, fun and comfortable time while you’re away! I currently have a full-time office job in West Caldwell, NJ. I work until 5pm during the week, and typically available by 5:30pm during the week. Weekends are fairly open for lots of playtime with your furry family! I care for every pet as if they were my own! I know that pets feel most comfortable when they can stick to their normal routines, so I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime and anything else their pet needs. I love giving pets plenty of attention, whether that means going for walks, playing, cuddling on the couch or simply keeping them company. I’m also very attentive to their individual personalities and will give them space if they’re shy or need extra time the arm up. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their home and make sure to leave everything just as I found it. Most importantly, I want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable and confident to at they’re in good hands while they’re apart.

About: I've helped take care of friends and families pets throughout my life. While I have no pets of my own due to my living space, I can't wait to meet your fur babies and add them to my list of friends! Before transitioning to independent pet care, I spent years working as a Seafood Manager. In that role, I was directly responsible for strict food safety protocols, meticulous sanitation, and managing high-stakes daily operations. I bring that exact same level of professional detail, reliability, and cleanliness into your home. You can trust that your pet's medication schedules, dietary restrictions, and safety protocols will be followed precisely. Dedicated Time Blocks: I structure my schedule around dedicated morning to mid-day walking blocks (8 AM – 3 PM) and evening check-ins to ensure consistency. I am available for other times depending on the day as well. Punctuality First: As a former manager, I view schedules as strict commitments. Your pets will be fed, walked, and checked on at their exact scheduled times .Overnight Consistency: For house-sitting clients, I maintain a reliable presence in your home, aligning my routine with your pet’s natural sleep and wake cycles. Required Meet & Greets: I schedule a brief, mandatory introductory meeting before confirming any booking to ensure your timeline fits perfectly with my availability. My Safety & Care Protocols: For Your Dogs: Secure Equipment Checks: I double-check collars, harnesses, and leashes before stepping outside. I never allow off-leash play in unsecured areas. Behavior Awareness: I maintain high alertness on walks to avoid strange dogs, hazards, or triggers. For Your Cats: Visual Verification: I never leave a home without physically spotting your cat in their preferred zone to guarantee they are safe. Respectful Interaction: I let shy or independent cats set the pace, never forcing interaction or causing stress. Home & Trust Management: Manager-Level Cleanliness: I keep feeding stations pristine, wash food bowls daily, and strictly manage trash and litter box sanitation. Secure Lockups: I follow entry, alarm, and key management instructions flawlessly to protect your home. Real-Time Transparency: You will receive clear photo updates and a detailed status summary text during every single booking.

“Hansa is extremely professional and reliable. We experienced an issue with a current sitter, and Hansa quickly stepped in as a backup. She is so important to us because she allows us the freedom to do other things, knowing that our fur babies are well cared for. She is very conscientious and well-experienced with cats. We are definitely using Hansa’s services again. Our babies love her!”

“Mark was fantastic! I could tell right from the start that he was going to try his darnedest to get my shy Moira to connect on his visits - when he instantly started to practice the high-pitched voice I use which Moira best responds to on our initial visit lol! Right out of the gate I think he was able to find her under the bed and engage with Churu! While she didn't allow contact every single day - I have no doubt that he tried and he even succeeded on several. I definitely felt safe having Mark taking care of my shy lil' girl.”

About: I’ve had my dog, Chico, for almost 8 years. I took care of her when she was a puppy and she has grown to be such an important part of my life. Last year, I got my other dog, Botlos, when he was 6 months old. I helped him develop from a scared, anxious, dog to a silly, excited puppy. I am responsible for walking, playing with, feeding, and bathing both of them. I find so much joy in taking care of animals. I work part time and attend university. I am available mainly on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays after 11 am. I am also available on Saturdays after 6:30 pm. I will keep a watchful eye on them on walks and ensure their safety. I will be cautious of the area I am walking them through. I will also drop in to ensure they are safe in my clients home.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! 🐶 I currently have three dogs of my own and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including my beloved senior dog who lived to be 17 years old. Having dogs throughout my life has taught me how different each dog can be, from energetic pups who love to play and explore to older dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and care. I’m attentive to their individual personalities, routines, and needs, and I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! ❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable pet care. I’m available on weekends and can accommodate a variety of schedules, including walks, drop-in visits, and longer stays when needed. I’m happy to work with each pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pets, and I’ll treat every visit as an opportunity to give them the same love and attention I would give my own. When caring for pets in their home, my priority is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s specific needs, personality, feeding schedule, medications if needed, exercise routine, and any house rules their family has in place. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and always make sure to leave things clean and just as I found them. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you’re away!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes for about 10 years and owned at least 1 since i was born! I just recently lost my mini schnauzer to brain cancer and would really love to help out where I can and hang out with some dogs (and cats) in the meantime! I have experience bathing, walking, and caring for senior dogs and puppies alike. I’m currently working from home and have a good amount of free time during the day to look after and care for your pup or cat! I live in a 3 story apartment and have no problem carrying a small dog upstairs if needed. I have room for a crate and surprisingly lots of room for your pet to roam around!

Christine jumped in at the last minute to replace a sitter we had a bad experience with, and she followed every instruction, was very communicative, and bonded well with my kitty. Will definitely book her again.”

About: With over 20 years of pet care experience, I’m excited to provide your furry loved ones with a safe, attentive home away from home. My experience includes caring for dogs, cats, and exotics such as rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and reptiles. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality, and I make sure to follow instructions carefully. I make a point of spending plenty of quality time with the pets in my care, whether that means going for a long walk, playing, giving belly rubs, or simply keeping them company. Whether you’re looking for home visits, boarding, drop-ins, or daily walks, my goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing that your furry, beautiful best friend is in loving, attentive, and reliable hands while you’re away. I currently work a hybrid 8-4:30 schedule. I am available throughout the week and fully open on weekends to spend plenty of time with your pets! I live in a condo community that is amazing for walking and also has a communal back yard space. I have one friendly 4 year old dog named Pepper, and he loves other animals.

She followed the instructions I left to the tee and kept me updated on how Dante and Preston were doing. I could not be happier with the job she did and will book her again when needed.”

I am very fortunate to have found Luis a couple weeks before going on a trip. Luis was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. In our initial meetup he took notes, connected with my cats and asked good questions before leaving. I stress when I go away and leave my girls, knowing they had Luis was very comforting. He stayed longer than needed sometimes and was able to accept additional sessions on short notice. He is tremendously reliable. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will pick Luis as my sitter going forward.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Wayne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Wayne on Rover is $35.52 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 12,227 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Wayne. 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 Wayne. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
