“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.”

About: Hi! Animals have always been important in my life. I grew up in Brooklyn feeding and befriending a feral cat colony in my backyard, so I started caring for animals at a young age and never looked back. I am the only person in my household who will be responsible for your pets! From 2014 to 2023 I worked as an LVT in a variety of clinic and hospital settings. I'm comfortable with subcutaneous injections (including fluid administration), wound care, administering medications, and generally any at-home treatments that your veterinarian would put in their discharge instructions (cleaning ears, changing a wound bandage, paw soaks, etc) If you have a dog or cat with special needs, including a senior pet, they already have a special place in my heart and I'd love to meet them. Over the years, I've done seasonal pet-sitting/dog-walking as well as caring for the pets of friends and family when needed. I'm a stay-at-home mom, cat butler, and chicken tender. My son started pre-K in September, so my availability during the week is typically 8:30-4, with some flexibility. I can also be available for evening visits/walks and specific weekends if booked in advance In my home, dogs and cats are allowed on furniture. We have 3 acres for leashed walks, as well as plenty of safe neighborhoods and parks nearby. Our home has a separate downstairs living space with its own bathroom and doors to the outside. I've raised 8 chickens on our property so far and last year my husband and I adopted two female Sphynx kittens, Nosy and Yaya.

About: ⭐️ 10 years of taking care of doggies from small to large, Chihuahua to Pitbull! ⭐️ Cat owner and foster of five years; ages ranging from three months to 10 years 🐾 I’m both a sitter and a customer. I understand the importance of trust and the anxiety that comes with hoping your sitter treats your pet like their own. My number one priority is ensuring both you and your pet(s) have a comfortable experience with my services. ⭐️ I primarily do drop-ins or walks according to my schedule which is typically up to date however, if you're looking for same day appointments, please reach out to check availability. Hours are as follows unless otherwise noted in my calendar Mo-Fr: available after 5PM Sa-Su: all day availability ⭐️ I work in the insurance industry so risk is always on my mind (maybe a little too much) so safety is a top priority. ⭐️ All personal information is kept confidential and is never shared with anyone outside of the platform. Other protective agreements (e.g., NDA's) can be discussed.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also volunteer at St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center, where I socialize with dogs and cats, take dogs on walks, play with them, and help with their overall care. I’m comfortable feeding pets, providing fresh water, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m an active person, so longer walks and hikes are always a pleasure, especially for energetic dogs! I’m also happy to handle the less glamorous parts of pet care. If your pet has an accident inside the house, I have no problem cleaning it up and making sure everything is left clean and comfortable. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with patience, care, and lots of attention while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, afternoon, and evening visits, depending on the day and your pet’s needs. On weekends, I’m available throughout the day and can easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and longer visits. Safety is always my priority. I prefer to keep dogs on a leash during walks and make sure they’re secure and comfortable at all times. Depending on your preferences and your dog’s routine, I can supervise them in the backyard, take them for walks around the neighborhood, or bring them to a dog park for some exercise and playtime. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog gets the type of activity they’re used to.

About: I became a dog mom 2 years ago but I’ve always been a dog and just animal lover my whole life and I’ve also volunteered in animal shelters. My fur baby, Kiera, is a pitbull that we rescued 2 years ago. and shes the biggest mush. I love her dearly and she makes every day so much brighter I’m currently home full-time with my daughter, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give your pets the attention and care they need. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I always show respect and responsibility when entering someone else’s home to care or walk their babies because I know I would like the same if someone was taking care of my fur baby

About: I have 5 pets of my own; 3 dogs and 2 cats. They are my world, truly. I have had pets most of my life, and have watched other peoples pets previously. Comfortable giving meds, feeding, playing, snuggling, etc. Certified in Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross). Have assisted with dog rescues & fosters. No matter the age or what special care is needed, I am on board. I can be available after 6pm on weekdays, flexible on weekends. I do work full time, so this will be a side job for me. At home we have an electric fence for the dogs, and our cats are strictly indoors. At a client’s home, I will provide all the necessary and recommended care asked from the parents. I am very respectful and responsible. You wouldn’t even know I was there; respecting others’ property is important for me. Remain clean, professional, and respectful.

Jenni is so wonderful. She takes the best care of my kitties and always leaves things so tidy. Not many people will take care of your pets as you do, but I do feel that Jenni does. I never have to worry when I'm away because I know my cats are happy, safe, and loved. She sends updates, follows every instruction, and treats my home like her own. I recommend her without hesitation, and I'll be booking her again!

Sevinc is absolute fantastic. She was extremely attentive and friendly to my cat Arthur. I definitely felt at ease, especially with this being my cat’s first time alone overnight. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.

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 of Cat Sitting in Wayne is $36 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $50 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,477 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wayne. On Rover:

  • 81% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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 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.
