“Dalila did the most amazing job looking after our two cats who are very active and love to play and have a particular feeding schedule. She kept us updated and gave me piece of mind while traveling! She also kept the apartment very clean and tidy!”

“Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.”

“Thank you, Brianna, for taking care of my elderly cats for two weeks! Usually, when I leave them, they get upset and could pee all over and make a mess. At this time, I came back to the clean apartment, and my cats were healthy and cheerful 😻.”

About: I treat every dog and puppy like family! I’m loving, patient, and always ready for walks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of belly rubs and cuddles! It’s something that I’d like to do, if It’s possible to do it everyday and meet new cuddly friends, I’d love to have that opportunity to help! I’ll make sure they get comfortable with me and that they aren’t scared or timid. That isn’t what I’m there for, I want the pets to know that I am there to care for them so they can have fun!

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.

“We had such a great experience with Suraia! She is definitely an animal lover and was so kind, polite, and accommodating. We left our cat with her for about 6 nights while we were away. She sent us lots of pictures and videos throughout our cats stay, which we really appreciated. She was very understanding and flexible with our delayed flight and pickup arrangements. She even gave our cat a new toy and wanted to say goodbye before we left. You can really tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and we would definitely recommend her!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home filled with cats, dogs, birds, and fish, and got my first cat at age 11 whom I lovingly cared for on my own for 17 years. Since then, I’ve spent two years dog sitting and shared 13 beautiful years with my beloved cat Sparky, who recently passed. He had multiple health challenges including allergies, heart and kidney disease, and arthritis, so I’m experienced and comfortable caring for pets with medical needs. Losing Sparky has inspired me to offer the same level of love, attentiveness, and compassion to other people’s pets I currently work part-time from home and have a flexible schedule. As someone who’s single with no children, I’m available to provide loving care to your pet seven days a week. When I pet sit for cats, I offer an in-home stay that ensures your feline friend experiences consistent love, comfort, and human presence, especially important for cats used to having their pet parent nearby. I’m typically only out of the home for a few hours at a time, so your cat will never feel alone for long. I follow all feeding instructions carefully, clean the litter box once to twice daily, and administer any required medication right on schedule with patience and care. I love helping cats feel at ease, so I usually bring a small catnip toy as a welcome gift and offer treats you’ve provided to help build trust. Playtime happens naturally throughout the day, at multiple moments when your cat feels engaged and ready. I’m also completely open to cuddles and welcome your cat to sleep with me if that’s part of their routine. To give you peace of mind while you're away, I provide thoughtful and consistent updates throughout the day. I send one photo in the morning, one in the afternoon, and a video in the evening—so you can feel connected to your cat and confident that they’re happy, relaxed, and well cared for. As part of my pet sitting service, I also include a general cleaning of your home so you can return to a fresh, spotless space. I believe coming home should feel peaceful and stress-free, so I take care to leave your apartment tidy, welcoming, and cared for, just like your pet!

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 November 2026, there are 3,529 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 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 Great Neck. On Rover:

  • 81% 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.
