“Caitlin is wonderful, bright, cheery, and great with my Selina (2 year old, bougie kitty). Selina takes a while to warm up to someone new, so I asked Caitlin to do 30 minute drop-ins while I was away for Labor Day weekend. By the time I returned Selina was giving up the tummy to Caitlin for belly rubs. :) We are ready for my 2 weeks in India now. Caitlin is excellent with the daily communication and pics, and was even concerned to take my trash out worried about the possible smell from the litter scoopings. I was worried about finding a solid replacement for my previous cat sitter. I am worried no more. Thanks, Caitlin!”
“Kate truly went above and beyond! I had some last-minute changes in the middle of my booking, but she kindly stood by me and helped sort everything out, demonstrating her big love for animals. I really like her and will definitely call her again whenever I need someone, and she's always willing to take care of my babies. They had a wonderful time, and even to this day, they still look for her.”
“Hira did an amazing job at looking after our cat. She was very responsive and flexible. She was able to get our cat to play with her which is not an easy thing to do and administered medication.Our cat isn’t very social so this was huge. We will absolutely be rebooking with her !”
About: Since 2017, I’ve been providing dependable and consistent care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Each walk or visit is tailored to each dog’s personality, temperament and physical condition, from puppies to senior dogs. I walk one household at a time, which helps reduce stress and keeps the experience calm and focused on your pet. Dogs are family and my goal is to keep them comfortable and happy so that every pet owner has peace of mind when their pet is in my care. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs or cats, Monday through Friday: 8 am to 4 pm; Saturday and Sunday: 8 am to 12 pm. For your dog's safety, dogs are prolific sniffers, inevitably putting things in their mouths that they shouldn't. I pay close attention to and keep a watchful eye on the ground to make sure your dog doesn't put anything in its mouth that can be harmful. In the unlikely event your dog or cat needs medical attention, I’m certified in cat and dog first aid by the American Red Cross.
“Another fantastic experience with Thomas! He’s detail oriented, conscientious, and friendly. He spent quality time with our cats, and provided us regular updates about how they were doing. Even our youngest (and most timid) cat is warming up to him. Thanks again Thomas!”
“Sadi is friendly, professional and did a great job with my kitties! She made it easy to book with her and there were no issues communicating while I was away. We will definitely keep using her!”
“Our sitters were easy to communicate with, and we felt comfortable knowing our cats were safe, well cared for, and happy. We came home to a clean house and content pets, couldn’t ask for more!”
“Deliris was a great help! She took her time with my kitties and gave them some very needed interaction. She is a great communicator and never left me wondering about what was going on. I would definitely book her again!”
“This was our first time getting a pet sitter for our kitten and Kyra made the entire process stressless! She sent daily updates and took great care of our Zelda. So thankful for her help!”
“My first time using Rover and I was not disappointed. Cole was fabulous! Every morning and evening I received a quick note about each visit and pictures which showed how comfortable my cats were becoming with Cole. Cole quickly learned my cat’s personalities and he took wonderful care of them. Will Definitely book Cole in the future.”
“Daniel was beyond responsible and responsive, although I was far away from home he made sure to inform me on each visit regarding status of my senior dog and cat. I know for sure who to contact in the future ! 10/10 overall service”
“Katrina has always been great! This time she very kindly picked up our cat from the emergency vet at night and got him settled at home when we had logistics issues getting back from vacation. She made sure he was safe, gave us an update on his behavior, and made sure we got all the information we need from the vet. We’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Johnny was professional, on time, and worked well with my cats - absolutely no complaints. He always was quick to text back about any issues that arose, like pets throwing up, and even cleaned up after an accident a pet had. I highly recommend Johnny and will be a repeat customer!”
“Andrew is so caring. My two Siberian boys trusted him right away. I know everything went well not just because of the notes and pictures shared (which were great) but because my sweet boys greeted me joyfully having been well cared for!!”
“Stef, as always did an amazing job caring for our pets. She usually watches our energized pup but this time watched our quiet elusive cat. Stef kept up with food, water, litter box and played with our Harper (when she was willing to come out). We also appreciated that she noticed a lamp running too hot and turning it off, or turning on AC for our cat on a hotter day. We always know we can rest easy when Stef is caring for our pets.”
“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”
“Thank you so much for being so patient and understanding with my cat. It gave me so much relief knowing that I left him in the care of someone who loves animals and how to deal with them.”

Lizbeth was amazing and went above and beyond in watching our cats. She followed all instructions and made adjustments when needed. She always checked in and sent pictures. She is very knowledgeable about cats and will do what is best for your pet. We will definitely rebook with Lizbeth for all our future needs.
Jonny was a lifesaver and helped with my cat, Bonnie, who’s suffering from terminal cancer. He’s gentle, kind, and highly reliable. As Bonnie deals with her daily hardships, Jonny’s calm and considerate energy helped her stay calm during medicine time, which was really appreciated. Highly recommend him!
My first time using Rover and I was not disappointed. Cole was fabulous! Every morning and evening I received a quick note about each visit and pictures which showed how comfortable my cats were becoming with Cole. Cole quickly learned my cat’s personalities and he took wonderful care of them. Will Definitely book Cole in the future.
Katie did an absolutely amazing job with our three kitties for a seven day trip. She sent us regular updates and followed all of the information we gave her! No issues when we returned home, and we would absolutely book her again when we take a trip out of town!
This is my second booking with Nicole. I was out of town for 5 days and I felt completely relaxed and without a worry because Nicole was watching my pets. I highly recommend hiring Nicole - she is kind, patient, caring, professional, and just an overall great person!
Tirzah did an exceptional job taking care of my kitties. McLovin connected with her instantly, and she always played with him which he loves. Ms. Vanjie takes more time to get close to new people but Tirzah was patient and gave Vanj the space to come out and play when she was ready. I felt really good on my trip knowing our babies were safe and in good hands
Tracy and Steven were awesome—our pets were clearly in great hands. They really took the time to bond with them, playing with our dog and giving lots of attention and cuddles to our cats. They showed up three times a day like clockwork and even grabbed a couple packages from the front door, which we really appreciated. The updates and photos after each visit were thoughtful and reassuring. It made a big difference not having to worry about our animal children while we were away. We’d definitely book them again.
First time Rover user and Anya was wonderful. She popped over to play and feed our boys Mac and Mo while we went out of town for the first time since we adopted them. They warmed up to her immediately and i appreciated her attention to play time and she was also very responsive whenever I had reached out. Will definitely book her again! thanks Anya!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in West Orange on Rover is $25.61 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 12,552 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Orange. 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 West Orange. 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.
