“Jacqueline was fantastic with our cats while we were away. We have a few shy ones who Jacqueline won over in short order. You could tell how well cared for they were while we were gone. We’ve had other sitters who we see the cats sleeping every visit. Here Jacqueline had them up and playing! I think they were sad to see us come home ha. Thank you so much Jacqueline for giving us such a wonderful peace of mind.”

“I was very happy with the daily visits Elizabeth provided to my two cats while I was on holiday! She came to meet them before my trip to see how they would mesh and they loved her right away. And once I was on the road, Elizabeth was communicative and sent photos and info about how they were doing each day. It gave me peace of mind to know she was there. Daisy and Lila were happy to see me when I returned home today but I could tell they weren't stressed out by my absence. I will definitely work with Elizabeth again and can recommend her wholeheartedly.”

About: I've lived with pets all my life, my family rescued Great Pyrenees so I am comfortable with large breeds, as well as animals in the process of being rehabilitated. I customize every visit to match your pet's precise physical and emotional needs. I am diligent regarding medication schedules, monitoring for subtle signs of discomfort or health changes, and adapting the environment to keep mobility impaired pets safe and comfortable. I'm a local law student so I am available anytime that I do not have class. Pet care is a welcome study break for me. For puppies, I focus heavily on consistency and foundation building. I reinforce crate training schedules, practice polite leash walking, and use positive reinforcement to support your ongoing obedience and socialization goals, ensuring your puppy's training never skips a beat while you're away. For senior pets and animals with chronic medical conditions, I bring a calm, patient presence combined with medical vigilance.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old, so caring for animals has been part of my life for 35 years. I currently have dogs of my own and am comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m also experienced with cats, birds, reptiles, and other small pets. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust in your home and with your pets, and I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine! I have four dogs of my own, and I walk all four every day. We also visit a nearby dog park a couple of times a week for extra exercise, play, and enrichment. I’m used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and walks throughout the day. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I’ll follow your instructions closely and care for your pets the way they’re accustomed to. I take safety seriously on walks and during drop-in visits, including securely closing doors and gates and keeping dogs leashed whenever required. I’m comfortable with multiple-pet households and pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’ll also provide photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Experience with over 7 dogs from puppy to adulthood and numerous cats. I have trained 5 dogs. Over the years I have cared for many cats. Feeding, walking, home care, and giving medicine. I am currently in school with a long background of caring for pets. This position is rewarding for me as I enjoy caring for animals. I personally take care of my two dogs. I take them on multiple walks a day. Reenforcing positive feedback training and playtime continues to provide a continued well mannered dog and happy life.

About: Hi, I'm John! I’m an animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I understand that leaving your pet with someone is a big decision, so my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I treat every pet as an individual. Some dogs want a long walk and lots of playtime, while others are happier with a slower walk, some attention, and a comfortable place to relax. I take the time to learn your pet's routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and special needs before you leave. What you can expect from me: Plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise Walks tailored to your dog's age and energy level Feeding and medication according to your instructions Regular photo and message updates Careful attention to your pet's normal routine A reliable and responsible sitter who treats your home and pet with respect I also understand how important communication is to pet parents. I provide updates and photos so you don't have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I work full-time in NYC, but I have availability for walks and visits during weekday lunch hours, and I have significantly more flexibility on weekends. I'm happy to discuss your pet's schedule and see how I can accommodate their needs. Most importantly, I want your pet to have a positive experience while you're away. My goal is for you to come home knowing your pet was safe, happy, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time in NYC, but I’m available for walks and visits during the afternoon lunch hour on most weekdays. Weekends offer much more flexibility for walks, playtime, and longer visits. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s routine to make sure they get the care and attention they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine, whether that means a walk, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or simply spending time with them. I’m also respectful of your home and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable throughout my visit. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing.

About: Over the course of my time I've taken care of and lived with goldfish, parakeets, a big old mutt, several great cats...and chickens. Considering that I grew up in Manhattan, I'd say that if that doesn't account for exeptional qualifications to love and care for our furry (or scaly, or feathered) friends, I'm not sure what could! Our kids are off exploring the world as newly minted adults leaving my wife and I with two finicky cats. With a little extra time on my hands I thought it would be a good idea to help other pet owners out to work all day or preferably, gone on a much needed vacation but looking for someone to check in on their furry loved ones. I freelance from home as a designer, so I typically have time at both ends of the day to extend a helping hand to anyone who needs a little extra care for their pet. We have 2 cats at home of whom I am the primary caretaker of, so adding a visit to a neighbor in need would be easy. I will follow all instructions and care indications you give for your pet(s) to the letter and provide pictures of completion if you request it.

About: Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and genuinely cared for—even when you’re away. That’s exactly the kind of care I provide. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family. I share my home with my sweet 6-year-old Cavapoo and my gentle 10-year-old Scottish Fold cat, so I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Before joining Rover, I worked at Dogtopia, where I cared for groups of up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, manage dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and ensure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and happy. When I was younger, I babysat and walked dogs for relatives and neighbors. I also know that leaving your pet can be stressful for you, too. That’s why I make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular photo updates, videos, and text messages so you can see your pet enjoying their day and have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. When I care for your pet, my goal is simple: I want them to feel as comfortable, happy, and loved as they do when they’re with you. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family member and become someone you can count on whenever you need an extra helping hand. I am currently on summer break from college. From September 2026, I will be available to work at any time on Monday, Wednesday, Friday afternoon/evenings and Saturday and Sunday. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll tailor every visit to their unique personality and routine. I believe every pet deserves individual attention, patience, and lots of affection. That is how I am with my dog Flash and my beautiful cat, Princess Leia. Honestly, no request is too much, my dog and cat both are very particular in their ways.

I was away for five days and Elizabeth competently cared for my 2 adult cats and was alert for any house type issues. I have had her as sitter many times. She loves the cats and they really like having her. She feeds them and plays with them and sends me great updates and pics each time she visits. I would not be comfortable traveling if I didn’t have Elizabeth!

Antonio went above and beyond for my cat. I was away on a 2-week vacation to Japan. While there I was greeted every morning with photos of my cat, and a sweet little note about how he was doing. I can’t express the peace of mind Antonio gave me. Please book him for great service!

Gerry and Samantha were the best pet sitters I could’ve imagined! They were attentive and communicative throughout the whole trip and they bonded really well with my cats. The best part of my day while traveling was when I would receive Jerry’s photos from their check ins. I definitely recommend :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Garden City Park on Rover is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $42 per visit. 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 of October 2026, there are 12,396 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Garden City Park. 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 Garden City Park. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
