“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 did a great job caring for my big dog and two cats for a week. He was punctual, responsible, responsive and attentive. I found my house exactly as I left it and I would love to use his services again. He did a fantastic job.”
About: Hi there! I’am Kostas, a passionate animal lover with 4 years of experience in pet care. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends providing them with love, attention, and cuddles. I work part-time, with a schedule that changes weekly, but I have availability in the mornings, evenings, and nights. When I’m working, my girlfriend, who also loves and cares for animals, helps take care of your pet to ensure they always receive attention and care. Feel free to reach out, and we can find a time that works best for your pet’s needs! Before each visit, I review the pets information including the routines, diet and any medical conditions. I feed the pets according the owners instructions and ensure they have access to fresh water
“Karen is very reliable and caring for my cat Ellie. We came home to a happy and well-taken care of cat, fortunate to have found such a wonderful person to help us when we are away!”
“Elizabeth was great with my cats! She was super attentive and kept me updated on how they were doing my whole trip! I definitely felt comfortable knowing that she was taking such great care of them!”
“Stephanie is an absolute sweetheart! I could tell she treated Saint with so much care, as if he was her own pet. ( which I love ) I will definitely be using her again for her help in the future. Not only is Stephanie nice and friendly, but she followed all the directions I left for her. Thanks 🙏”
About: i’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember and always take the time to understand each dog’s unique needs! i have experience caring for dogs in heat and know how important patience, affection, and extra attention are. i always keep in mind to ask thoughtful questions before every stay or walk, including how your dog does with other dogs, children, and both genders. many rescues have past trauma, so making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable is always my top priority😊 i am available full-time and can adjust to your schedule! whatever your cat or dog needs, i will be ready to provide consistent, reliable care anytime! i keep pets in my part of the house, where they have plenty of space to eat, drink, and relax. they can even sleep with me if that’s what their owner prefers. I always follow the owner’s instructions to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether in my home or theirs.
About: Honestly? I’d do this for free — and I have, many times. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors my whole life, and recently completed a month-long live-in cat sit. My background working with kids in sports and with autism has made me patient, attentive, and calm in any situation. Your pet won’t just be watched, they’ll be treated like family. My schedule is about as flexible as it gets. I work part-time just a few hours every few days, and the rest of my time is spent working from home on my business. Your pet won’t be sitting alone waiting for someone to come home. They’ll have a present, engaged, companion, ready for walks, playtime, and everything in between. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, safety, and comfort always come first my home features are fully fenced backyard, perfect for off leash play and outdoor time without any worry. I’m in a quiet, low traffic neighborhood that’s ideal for relaxed, walks, and outdoor adventures. Inside, my home is calm and welcoming. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I bring the same attentiveness and routine focused approach so your pet stays comfortable in the environment they know best.
About: My first job was as a dog walker when I was 12! I have grown up with cats and dogs - caring for them from puppies/kittens through to their golden years. I have also dog/house sat for a large rescue + their several senior cats! My goal is to get to know each pet I interact with so that me and your pet can enjoy our time together. Furry friends are family and I treat them as such. I have also volunteered at 2 different rescues over the past several years helping care for cats as well as walk and play with dogs of all ages. I am currently finishing my last year of medical school so my schedule is not completely free. However, I do typically have evenings, weekends, and a random day off during the week! I get my current schedule 1 month at a time and am happy to accommodate outside my scheduled hospital shifts. I am very respectful of others rules for their home and their pets. I am a tidy person who hates messes in my own home so wouldn't leave them in anyone else's.
“Ozzy was an amazing sitter for my four cats! My girlfriend and I felt at ease while away visiting family knowing that he was checking in on our cats, and even giving my diabetic cat his meds. All the cats loved Ozzy and I would highly recommend booking with him!”
About: I love all animals and treasure every opportunity I get to care for them. I am very dependable and hold their needs highly dedicating my self to keeping pets happy and secure. I am mostly open to walking and sitting pets in the early morning, afternoon and evenings during the weekdays. I'm also flexible on the weekends for onboarding and overnights. I am always on call so the owner feels secure. I make sure that pets have the right space for their needs and feel comfortable. Lastly, I make sure to always have the pets under my watch and that they are just as happy and healthy as they came if not more.
About: I have lifelong experience owning and caring for dogs and cats, I have had cats since I was a baby and a dog since I was 16. This experience includes managing daily feeding schedules, administering oral medications, and walking high-energy or not so high energy dogs. For the past three years, I have regularly pet-sat for neighbors and friends, looking after senior dogs with mobility issues and young puppies. I am comfortable handling multiple pets at once, providing updates with photos, and following home-care guidelines. I work Tuesday 1 to 5 Thursday 2 to 5 Wednesday 4 to 10 PM Friday 4 to 10 PM Sunday 4 to 10 PM. I have a dog of my own. He is a German shepherd Akita mix. he is very moody so because of him I’ve gotten good at reading dog body language.He goes to the dog park every day so I experience how to handle aggressive dogs, and quirky behaviors.
“Suraia was nothing short of amazing she gave us constant updates and put all of our worries at ease knowing they were in good hands . She fed them on time and gave them treats and made sure they had fresh water & litter everyday and also made sure they got fresh air and got there playtime and naps . She even went out of her way to ask me about there routine and there schedule so they could be comfortable and feel at home and so they wouldn’t miss anything .treating my family pets as if they were her own . Highly Recommended will be booking again the next time we go on Vacation !!”

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.
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!
Erin took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She sent me daily pictures and updates, played with the kitties, refilled their water, and cleaned their litterboxes. My cats absolutely love her! She’s reliable and communicates well. I highly recommend her!
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!
Ashley did a great job taking care of my two kitties for the week while I was on vacation with my family. She was extremely communicative, followed all directions and provided photos to help me feel better about being away from my babies for the week. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 12,328 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Glen Head. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
