“Remi was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of my two cats while I was away and gave me real peace of mind. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which meant so much to me. My cats can be very shy, but I could tell they were well looked after. She even went above and beyond by making sure everything was taken care of while I was gone. I highly recommend Remi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you again, Remi, for taking such wonderful care of Noah and Naomi!”

“Addison is an amazing dog/cat sitter. He is attentive, professional, kind and responsible. i highly recommend him and know that your pets (both dogs and cats) and your home will be treated with care and respect. I have used Addison both for drop in visits and dog/cat sitting at my house for over a week and am thrilled to have found him. Addison goes the extra mile above the long instruction notes I left him. He pays attention to detail (he found and removed a tic on my dog) and communicates all that is needed without any drama. He is punctual and thoughtful and very and very kind. He checks all the boxes and more.”

About: I’m a current veterinary student with over 10 years of hands on animal care experience, including working in veterinary medicine in Arizona. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and medical needs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and supporting both puppies and senior pets. I also have two dogs of my own a senior dog and a high-energy Australian Shepherd so I understand the patience, structure, and attention different pets need. Whether your dog loves slow, relaxed walks or needs lots of activity and stimulation, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize both their safety and happiness, so you can feel confident they’re in knowledgeable and caring hands I’m a veterinary student with hands on animal care experience, so my availability varies depending on classes during the semesters. Besides classes and attending to my own pets, we can discuss flexible scheduling. Please reach out prior as my calendar may not always reflect my availability. I provide attentive, reliable care during dog walks and drop in visits, following all instructions closely, feeding, medications, or any special needs while keeping pets safe and comfortable. I understand pet behavior and body language, so I can respond calmly and appropriately in any situation. I focus on creating a secure and stress-free experience for every pet. While I’m not offering overnight stays at this time, every walk and visit is designed to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I’ve owned, or have been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I’ve owned a total of 4 dogs throughout my 22 years of life, and once I was old enough, my parents trusted me to help take care of them all! This includes walks, feeding, showers, hygiene, and playing with them! I love and appreciate all breeds and all sizes, and hope you’ll consider me to take care of your fur babies! I am currently working one, part-time job, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s)! My schedule varies based on a self selecting schedule, however, this leaves room to work around whatever your preferred schedule is! I am very good at staying on top of communication, if there are ever any questions about when I’m home and how long I can be home for, I will be fully transparent! I have a large, fenced in yard, in the back of a spacious, and open layout home! our neighborhood is quiet, dog friendly, and has lots of safe walkways to provide your dog exercise! Me and my roommates also own a total of 3 sweet kitties, that either keep your baby company, or are easy to keep occupied in our individual spaces to provide the most comfortable environment for your dog!

About: Hi, I’m Mindy — I run MindySits 🐾 I treat every pet like my own, simple as that. I’m patient, reliable, and pay attention to what each dog actually needs. Beyond pet sitting, I’m deeply involved in the rescue community and serve as a Foster Manager with BARRK Rescue, where I help oversee placements, guide fosters, and support dogs coming from difficult or uncertain backgrounds. This experience has given me a strong understanding of behavior, decompression, and how to meet each dog exactly where they are. Whether it’s walks or overnight care, I keep things calm, consistent, and make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated so you’re never wondering how things are going. Dependable care and a happy dog that’s always the goal 💛🐶 Hi! I work a hybrid schedule, home 2 days a week. My husband is home so your pup will rarely be alone. I have always been happiest with a dog close by. I live with my husband, daughter, and our dog Willie 🐾 We’re a calm, dog-loving home and I just really enjoy having animals around. I also help care for a senior dog, so I’m patient, gentle, and pay attention to what each dog needs. I’m easygoing but attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable while they’re with me

About: I have been around dogs for most of my life, having owned two dogs from ages 6-20, and I have since gained hands-on experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages and needs. I’ve pet sat for both cats and dogs, including caring for four cats and two dogs at once, managing litter boxes, wet and dry food routines, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I also have experience administering oral medications and eye drops to dogs. One experience especially that sets me apart is caring for a Catahoula Leopard dog who was paralyzed in her hind legs, which involved expressing her bladder and assisting with her mobility alongside caring for another dog in the home. I’m comfortable with puppies as well, having provided drop-in care for a golden retriever at both 3 months and 6 months old, as well as extended dog and house sitting for a 2-year old golden retriever. Across my pet-sitting experience, I’ve provided regular walks, baths, light grooming, feeding, playtime and lots of one-on-one attention. I understand every pet has their own routine, personality, and level of care, and I’m comfortable providing everything from my everyday companionship to more hands-on care for pets with special needs. My current schedule is very flexible, as I am studying full-time for the MCAT and create my own study schedule each week. I attend MCAT prep classes on Sunday and Tuesday evenings, but outside of those times, I can easily plan my studying around your pet’s needs. This gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and extended care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with each pet owner to maintain the routine that works best for their pet! I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility. I have experience house sitting and pet sitting for many families, and I always treat each home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding your pet’s routine, safety, feeding, medications, and household needs. My only request is to be shown where basic cleaning supplies are kept (accidents happen, and that’s completely normal!). I want you to come home to a space that is just as clean, if not cleaner, than when you left it, and most importantly, to a pet who has been safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have volunteered at 3 separate animal shelters for 10 years now and have always had pets in the home. I have 2 cats of my own. I’m a teacher in Freeport and live in Wantagh, so I have a flexible schedule outside of the school day. I’m available on weekends and school breaks, and I can often stop by before or after work (my workday is 9 AM–4 PM). I’m happy to work with your schedule to help keep your pet’s routine consistent and make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I have a fenced-in yard and two sweet, friendly cats of my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I always prioritize their safety, follow their owner’s instructions, and respect their individual needs and personalities. I also have a separate room in my home which can make sure your pet(s) will not interact with my cats unnecessarily.

This is the second time we had Jill take care of our kitties whilst traveling. As expected, she did a wonderful job caring for them (just as she did the first time) over the course of the week - could not be any happier with having her as their caretaker. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a petsitter!

What a pleasure to work with Beatrice. She was very responsive, attentive, and a relief to hear from. She knew exactly how to approach our cat and did all the right things to help gain trust. I would trust Beatrice with our pet any day and will consider her services again when we travel. I look forward to recommending her to others as well. Thank you so much!

Danielle was amazing with my cat while I was on my 10-day trip. My cat loved her, and I could tell her was upset when it was me and not her when I walked in the door!! She even brought over special treats for him. She left my apartment clean and well taken care for as well which I really appreciated. I am so happy to know I have Danielle for my next trip- I know my cat is looking forward to seeing her again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Glen Cove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Glen Cove is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 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 3,490 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glen Cove. 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 Glen Cove. On Rover:

  • 82% 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.
