About: I can take care and pamper your cat to the utmost degree. Nail trimming, litter, food, grooming, and liquid medicine etc etc. I love all types of cats 👍 In regards to dogs I’ve taken care of my extended family’s lovable canines over seas, though I’m less experienced in this department I’m still very capable of taking them on a walk! Can take care of your cats for however long you need with whatever requirements necessary. Pet care is a main part of my day as grooming feeding and pampering my cats are a priority for me. I will care for the pets however you wish with the methods you ask of me. If the cat hides a lot I’m a patient dude and can deal with tense situations from my experience in dealing with children.

“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 😻.”

“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.”

About: From long walks to slow sniffy adventures, I’m happy to match your dog’s vibe. I’m easygoing, reliable, and love getting to know each dog’s personality. 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. I’m easy to communicate with and quick to respond, and I can send regular photo updates if you’d like.

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 always been a lover of animals especially cats and dogs! I have my own cat that I’ve taken care of through thick and thin. Administering a pet medicine, a bath, a walk, food and water, and companionship is something I’m very fond of. Your pets will be treated like my own. :) I have all my weekdays free for taking care of your furry companion! However, if I have certain errands or appointments I need to get done I will let you know in advance as soon as anything comes up. :) I will make sure to accommodate to whatever requirements or rules you have set for your place of living. Please let me know of all of these before allowing me to care for your cat/dog.

About: Hi, my name is Julia, and I am a Master of Library Science student. I have been caring for pets my entire life and have experience looking after, walking and administering medication for pets of all shapes and sizes. This includes senior pets. I have been dogsitting for friends and family for several years including long term, overnight stays. I’ve looked after everything from a tiny shih tzu to two Belgian Malinois-sized rescues at once. Since moving from Florida to start my graduate studies, my family has been caring for my two rescue cats Yoshi and Cori, whom I miss dearly. I am offering drop-in visits, house sitting and dog walking services. Availability: Every day except after 3 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. As my family and friends can assure you, I treat every pet I meet with love and care, as if they were my own. I hope to care for yours too ❤️ I am in school full-time with a schedule that leaves me a lot of availability during the day. My classes are on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays starting at 4 p.m. Every other time of the week, I’d be happy to lend my pet care services. I am a diligent caregiver with a watchful eye who likes to respect a pet’s autonomy. I am patient and respectful of cats that may be shy or dogs that may be nervous but open to a good cuddle with a pet that might need it.

About: I have owned pets since I was 4 years old. I have worked in the veterinary field since I was sixteen and am starting my 2nd year of veterinary school at Long Island University. Over the years I have pet sit for a total of 25 different dogs, 15 cats, a bearded dragon, a hamster, guinea pigs, and a turtle. I am able to medicate any dogs or cats, as well as give any injections needed (ex. insulin). I also have experience at a dog daycare where I was in charge of over 40 dogs of all sizes in one large yard together. I am currently working full time at UrgentVet and work second shift so I am available in the mornings or any time on my days off. When school starts at the end of August, I will be able to work around my class schedule and make adjustments as needed for your pet. I care for pets as if they are my own. I make sure they are comfortable and keep their daily routine that they are used to, to make sure everything goes as smooth as possible.

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 Gardens

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Great Neck Gardens is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $26 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 October 2026, there are 12,571 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Great Neck Gardens. 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 Gardens. 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 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.
