“I couldn’t be happier with the Lisa’s drop in visits. she was punctual, kind, and attentive to both of my cats. She took the time to play, feed, and give them plenty of affection. She even sent adorable photo updates each visit. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. I think Mendelssohn and Cici liked her very much. Truly went above and beyond highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care!”
“Helena was amazing! She kept me updated and sent pictures of Zenitsu. I loved that her daughters were giving loving to my little guy in some of the photos. I will definitely book her (and her little helpers) again when I travel.”
“Kenny helped us with a last minute booking for our 3 beloved dogs. We needed to be away from home for an entire day. He accommodated meeting us last minute the day before our trip, he was very professional and we could tell right away his love and commitment to his work. He made us feel at ease with messages and photos. He came back and forth 4x throughout the day and gave them plenty of outside time and bonding with them, he was able to get our finicky dogs to eat. We are going to call on Kenny again because he made sure they were comfortable while we were away from home.”
About: Hi I’m Sivan. I have owned pets ranging from bunnies and fish to dogs. I dog-sit in my hometown and get along with pets very easily. I’m looking forward to caring for your loving pets and sharing my love, as I know I would want someone to do for my own. I am currently working part time and have availability on the weekdays (4pm-12) and weekends, any time. I do attend college and believe I am flexible with my time, as I have a schedule with gaps. I care for my pets by walking and curbing my dog. I feed him, groom him, shower him, play with him, cuddle, and give him lots of love. For my bunny, I clean her litter box every day, feed her, cut her nails, groom her, play with her and give her kisses and cuddles. I would do the same and then some for your furry friends. (:
“Tatiana is the BEST cat sitter ever. She played with my cat and gave me super informative updates. She sends amazing pictures and I can tell my cat Toby is so happy from the pics ! This is my third time hiring her and I always do when I am away.”
“Anna M was amazing. I had such peace of mind and will be using her again and again She is kind and thoughtful and amazing. Anna even offered to go and purchase a specific flavor of cat food when I ran out of a flavor one of my cats liked. She is great !!!”
“Karen is great! You can tell she’s a dog person right away :) we were immediately comfortable leaving Daisy with her & she loved her immediately. Thank you for taking good care of our pup, Karen!”
“I had planned a long trip to Italy. My friend had promised to take care of them and then flaked last minute. I reached out to Kristen the week before and she agreed to watch my cats for me. I’m always super anxious about leaving them behind. She made sure to fit a meet and greet into her schedule last minute on video chat. She was very professional and understanding of my concerns and my anxiety regarding the cats. While I was away, she left thorough reviews on how each visit went and what she did with my cats. She was attentive to both me and them, which made me feel at ease where I could enjoy my vacation. I will continue to ask for her services moving forward. Thanks, Kristen!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and with different needs since I was a teen. I’ve had two of my own :) I’m very active so love doing out door activities with them! I currently work remotely, so I have plenty of time to play with your furbaby’s! I am available to drop in for walks if you’re local, dog-sit, and board in my home. With a lot of love and as if they were my own. I have a yard but mainly love going on walks or hikes (depending on the dog). I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule and I don’t ever leave a pet alone more than 3 hrs at most I care for them as I do my own. My husband and I are usually home and if possible (depending on the furbaby) we always include the pups in any outdoor errand/activity
“Elizabeth is so patient with my anxious and skittish dog. She takes her time to make sure he feels comfortable with her. Wonderful communication, and reliable. Highly recommended!”

Juliana was amazing with our cats while we were on vacation. She is reliable and took great care of our cats. We have one older cat and she took time to try to get him to take his medication every day. She played with them and we never had to worry about them in her care. She is trustworthy and I recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.
Patricia is such a wonderful sitter. She is so supportive while you're away from your cat (or other pets!) My cat was having urine issues, and she let me know right away so I could get him checked out asap. Thank you as always, Patricia!! Don't hesitate to book with her!
Grace was fantastic with sky . Came early every day,took pictures and we spoke on phone. Litter box was clean everyday and sky ate well. Grace came to meet sky 3 weeks before her work day and met me and sky ! I would use her again and highly recommende you do as well !
Stephanie took great care of my two cats, Oreo and Nala, while I was away. She followed all of my instructions and made sure their routines were kept consistent, which I really appreciated. Oreo is a social butterfly and enjoyed her company right away. What impressed me most was seeing my shy girl Nala slowly come out of her shell. By the last couple of visits she was rubbing against Stephanie and even allowing pets, which is a big deal for her. That alone speaks volumes to me. Stephanie also shared photos during the visits and kept things running smoothly while I was gone. I’m grateful that I was able to relax on my trip knowing my cats were being looked after, and came home to two happy kitties. Thank you again, Stephanie! 🐱
Caitlyn was fantastic! It was clear the cats felt comfortable and at home with her dropping in to take care of them. She came for a meet and greet ahead of time and went above and beyond with photos during each visit. With care and professionalism Caitlyn shows I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their fur-babies.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in East Rockaway on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 11,736 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across East Rockaway. 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.

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.
