Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority—and I’ll send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing along the way 🐾 Right now, I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m typically available on Fridays and throughout the weekends; sometimes I am free during the weekdays outside 9-5. If you have any questions or a specific time in mind, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate. I always prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets in your home. I follow all instructions carefully and treat everything with care. I do this work out of genuine love for animals and always treat each pet as if they were my own.

About: Every dog has their own personality, and I believe the best care starts with understanding that. Some dogs want to play all day, some need patience and time to trust you, and others are happiest just having someone calmly by their side. I always take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable. My experience with animals started helping rescue dogs in South America, including dogs that were scared, shy, or came from difficult situations. It taught me patience and how important it is to let an animal trust you at their own pace. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, independent, or a little nervous with new people, I’ll care for them based on what they need and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care has always been a big part of my daily routine. I care for my own pets every day, so I’m very used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime and making sure they get the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I understand how important consistency is, so I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including their usual walk times, feeding schedule and any specific instructions you have. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible even when you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow the routine and instructions you give me because I want your pet to feel as comfortable and normal as possible while you’re away. I pay close attention to feeding times, walks, medications if needed, playtime and the little things that are specific to your pet. I’m also respectful of your home and will always leave it the way I found it. I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and being well cared for. I care for every pet with the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own.

About: I have lifelong, hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels — from couch-loving seniors to zoomie-prone puppies! Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. My focus is on positive, gentle handling and getting to know your pup and their specific needs to help them feel at ease. I’m confident on leashed walks, experienced with basic training reinforcement, and always up for belly rubs, playtime, or just a cozy cuddle session (if you and your dog prefers). Safety, fun, and plenty of tail wags are always top priority when your pup is with me. I'm currently working part-time, so I can work around your schedule and I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I'm available for boarding on weekdays as well as weekends. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I understand that pets thrive on routine and familiarity, so I make it a priority to resemble their habits and schedules, feeding routines, walk times, and play routines. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure while their humans are away. Safety is always top of mind — I carefully follow all instructions, keep doors and gates securely closed, monitor for any unusual behavior, and ensure pets are never exposed to hazards (like unsafe foods, chewed items, or off-limits areas). I also stay in touch with updates and photos, so you feel confident and connected the whole time. Most importantly, I build trust with your pets through patience, kindness, and positive energy. Whether it’s a nervous cat hiding under the bed or an excitable pup waiting for their walk, I take the time to meet each pet where they are and help them feel comfortable in their own space.

About: I’ve taken care of big dogs and cats. I find it easy to connect and bond with animals. Me and my partner have a cat that stays at his place. Since I’m self-employed, I’m pretty much free any weekday at any time to take care of your furry friends! This includes morning, afternoon and nights. I would prefer to not care for pets in my home unless it’s a cat or small dog as my space wouldn’t be ideal for bigger dogs

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated dog lover with over three years of experience as a dog owner and a reliable go-to sitter for my friends' pups. From daily walks to overnight stays, I’ve helped care for dogs of all sizes and personalities — whether they’re energetic adventurers or laid-back cuddlers. I’ve walked, boarded, and dog, sat regularly, and I treat every pup like part of the family, I even threw my own dog a birthday party on his 2nd birthday! I know how important it is to keep dogs happy, safe, and loved while their humans are away, and I take that responsibility seriously (with a healthy dose of play and treats, of course!). Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m available on weekday evenings and have open availability on weekends, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and consistent care. Whether it’s an evening walk after work or drop-in visits, I love making room in my schedule to spend time with pets. Caring for animals isn’t just something I squeeze in, it’s something I truly enjoy and plan my time around. I’m reliable, flexible on weekends, and always happy to help make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. In my home, I make sure pets have a cozy, clean space to relax, plenty of playtime, and regular walks and feeding schedules. I keep things quiet and low-stress, especially for dogs or cats who may be nervous in a new place. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines they’re used to , from feeding times and walking routes to bedtime rituals and favorite toys. I respect your space and always leave things clean and tidy. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own , with lots of love, patience, and attention.

About: Hi, I’m Sara! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pup is full of energy and needs long walks, or your cat just wants some quiet company, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages. My cats at home are seniors. I’m good at making sure the animal gets to keep their routine. I am very good at knowing when cats or dogs want attention or need something. I have many years of experience dog walking with my friend. I am working part time right now so my schedule is really flexible. I will make sure to take my time to spend time with your pets. I love cats so much they are my favorite animals. Dogs are really cute and I love playing fetch with them! I think it’s important to never leave the door open and I’m very good about making sure the cat can’t escape. I’m a big believer on respecting cats boundaries. I can tell when they want attention or when they want to be left alone. With dogs I think it’s important to be attentive to them and listen to what they want. I also prioritize making sure I know where they are during the whole visit.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 16. I had 2 cats and a dog from the age of 4. I had 3 dogs as a child and teenager. I take care of my parents 10 year old Pomeranian dog, Buddy. He is my favourite and I have so much fun playing with him and taking him for walks. I regularly take care of my friends' cats and dogs of all ages. I don't own any pets but I hope to some day. I'm very patient, kind and caring. I have a lot of patience with kittens, puppies and older dogs and cats. I like to meet in person or a video call before working with a client to ensure it's the right fit. I work from home and have a lot of free time to walk, feed & play with dogs and cats. I love pet sitting! I always look forward to taking care of pets. I live in a large 1 bedroom apartment with lots of room for a pet to walk around, play and rest. My apartment is safe, on the 2nd floor with no outdoor space but I'm close to a park. I am happy to go to the clients home too.

Lawrence was amazing! I was super anxious to have a sitter for my cats, this is my first time using rover and I’m so glad I chose Lawrence. He was very communicative and cared about the instructions I gave, never afraid to ask questions to ensure my fur babies were well taken care of! His kind nature even got my super anxious cat domino to come out of hiding🥹 he sent update photos each day he came in for a visit, will definitely book with him if I’m ever out of town again!

Morgan is amazing! She is very thoughtful, kind, and professional. My cat is usually a bit cautious with strangers, but he fell in love with her at the first sight. Morgan kept me updated with daily reports and photos, and answered all my questions promptly and clearly. Communication with her is always smooth, pleasant, and assuring. I feel fortunate knowing that I have someone I can trust with my 🐈‍⬛ when cannot be with him.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Great Neck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 12,586 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Great Neck. 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Great Neck. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
