About: I am a reliable and honest worker. I absolutely love all kinds of animals. I will be there for you, as well as your pet. What sets me apart from others is that I have no preferences! I love all dogs and cats - big, small, young, or old. I don’t mind going out on walks or potty runs. I love to get the exercise! I also don’t mind if you need me to stay the night. If you’re on vacation and need me to be at the house multiple times per day I can even do that. Whatever you need I’ll be sure to provide it. I have a flexible schedule which will be convenient for this job. I am so excited for this opportunity, thanks :) Best, Jaden I work fully remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which makes pet care easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I’m able to take breaks throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feedings, and check-ins, while still keeping up with my work. This flexibility also allows me to accommodate overnight stays or multiple visits when needed. I’m happy to provide care in your home, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m also very flexible with travel and have my own car, so I can easily commute to you for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. While I’m not able to offer regular boarding at my apartment, I’m happy to work with you to find the setup that’s most comfortable and convenient for your pet!
“Mark was just fantastic looking after my boys: communicative, conscientious, and just a true animal lover. He really took the time to get my cats to warm up to him, and just had such a mellow demeanor. Highly recommend him (and will use his services again if you don’t snag him first!).”
About: I have been taking care of and pet sitting animals, whether it be my own, my family’s or friends basically my whole life. More recently, I have been involved with The Seeing Eye since 2018, as a puppy sitter as well as a volunteer Puppy Raiser, and I have been bathing and grooming dogs professionally since early 2021, working with little puppies for their first grooms all the way up to senior dogs who need a little more love and patience during the grooming process. I have several years of experience working with puppies on basic obedience, and potty training. In addition, I have a 6 year old german shepherd who I have raised and trained myself who I love with my whole heart. I currently work 5 days a week as a groomer, however my schedule can be flexible. I am available most nights after 6 pm and all day Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I do not pet sit in my own home, as I live in a small apartment. However, I would be more than happy to stay over a clients home if needed!

“Gianna has been absolutely amazing with my fur baby! When Gianna takes care of my puppy, I have absolutely no worries. Gianna is very attentive and is very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend!”
About: I love cats and dogs since I was a child. We had cats and dogs at our family in China since I was little. I was their best friends. Now, living by myself, I have a sweet cat (Maria) who is a domestic short hair. She has brought me so much joy. I am normally available during evenings and weekends for drop-in visits and dog walking. I may be available during other times, depending on my work schedule. I clean a cat's bowls every morning, feed the cat with purified water and dry/wet food, clean litter box every night, respect his/her space and emotions, also set aside enough time to accompany and play with him/her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 12,108 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Whippany. 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 Whippany. 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.
