Cat Sitting in Hicksville

“Karen was great!! Just wonderful. Her and Slater became friends right away. It’s soo reassuring to know your little loved one is in great hands when you can’t be there. She is on time, very professional, neat, and respectful . She has a genuine love of all animals that comes out right away. She is highly recommended and will be used again in the future. Thank you soo much.”

“An excellent experience. We have never felt comfortable having anyone come to the house but Khrys has been amazing, thorough and most importantly was sweet to our cats. I could not recommend her enough.”

“Elaina is the absolute best! I have used her services repeatedly now, and could not be more grateful to have found her here on Rover. She is extremely accommodating, responsive, and genuinely a kind human. Someone you would want to leave your pup with, and feel very comfortable doing so! I could not recommend Elaina enough.”

“Emely is amazing. She followed the instructions and did more. She took my booking last minute and was very accommodating. Recommend 10/10”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, and it’s something that has always come naturally to me. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets, and I love being that reliable person they can count on. Each pet has their own personality, and I really enjoy figuring out what makes them feel happy and comfortable — whether it’s a puppy who needs extra playtime or a senior dog who just wants calm companionship. Alongside my pet care experience, I’m CPR-certified for animals and also work as an EMT (for humans, though!), which has given me strong skills in responsibility, patience, and staying calm in any situation. I bring that same level of care and attentiveness to every pet I look after, making sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family while their people are away. I work part-time as an EMT and full days as a medical assistant on Mondays and Tuesdays (and some weekends), which leaves me with a flexible schedule the rest of the week. Spending time with pets is honestly a perfect balance to my medical work — it feels like a little getaway, and I’ve really missed being around animals. Caring for pets lets me combine something I love with helping out families who need reliable support. I believe pets are happiest in their own familiar space, so I prefer to care for them in their home where they feel most comfortable. I follow each family’s routines closely — walks, meals, medication, and beyond to make sure pets feel safe and secure. With my healthcare background and pet CPR certification, I bring an extra level of attentiveness and responsibility. My goal is to make your pets feel loved and cared for, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands!

“I feel so much better leaving our cat, Oscar, alone when I know Katelyn is taking care of him. She is incredibly reliable and communicative in addition to being great with animals.”

About: I have decades of experience caring for pets, mostly my own. I grew up in a house full of dogs and have maintained that my whole life. Also had a great cat, hamsters and other pets. I believe animals deserve the best care possible as our “best friends” and beloved family members. I have extensive experience too in customer service and am highly solution-oriented. If you need me in a moments notice, always happy to do it if available. I have many years of experience also serving on boards at various animal shelters as well as volunteering to walk/care for dogs and cats and these locations. Even ran the NYC marathon as a top fundraiser for the ASCPA. My priorities in order are: god, pets, then people. Think I’ve got that in good order! 🥰 Currently between full time jobs and looking for a change of pace as well as to build a business that can extend into charitable resources beyond my income to help animals in need. I will follow your instructions exactly as detailed as well as use my years of experience should something occur or I notice a need/potential issue. My goal is to make the visit as enriching for your pet as possible. I think they sense that on me as animals tend to gravitate toward me, even the most shy and skittish. We live a nice life but my dogs probably even better than I. I provide them with superior care and lots of love. Animals are very perceptive and so I work to extend that same level of connection to all animals I meet, which would include yours if you select me for your pet care needs. Thank you!

“Rachel is the best! She is super friendly and responsible. She not only took care of my cat Mimi very well, and also helped with troubleshoot my pet camera, and watering plants. It’s really appreciated.”

My schedule is very flexible and I do my best to accommodate each pets specific needs! My care is not one size fits all like many others I always do my best to follow instructions as closely as possible and keep your pet on the same schedule, which provides for an easier adjustment for them.

“Absolutely awesome!”

About: I’ve been raising, helping to raise, and training animals since I was 10 years old! Dozens of horses, dozens of dogs, 6 birds, and 2 cats later, I dare say I enjoy the company of animals more than people. I worked for a company called PupStrut in Manhattan when I was attending college for all 3 years at that school. I provided training and a full hour walk for 3-5 dogs/day roughly 3 days/week. (Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the client) I’m freelancing and cleaning houses part time currently. I am helping care for my in-laws animals as well. I’d love to help a few other families care for their furry babies! I need a meet and greet with the owner to learn about the ins and outs of a pet’s space, their dietary needs, health issues, personality quirks, and what training needs they may require. I’m a quick learner and I’m organized to a flaw.

“So sweet and constantly gave updates on my babies while I was away! 10/10 highly recommend”

About: Hi I’m Mili! I have experience in dogs and cats of multiple breeds and sizes. I own an animal rescue and neuter/spaying foundation in Ecuador ❤️. I have a deep and special connection with animals and I would love to share my love and experience with your pets. I work a full time Monday-Friday job, however, we can adjust the schedule that works best for us! My weekends are very flexible and I am comfortable house sitting over nights. I believe communication is the best way to ensure I can provide your pet with the best care! 🩷 I follow instructions and specifications from pet parents. During my drop-in visits, I like to provide with a 20 minute walk and 2 walks (and as many necessary potty breaks) during house sitting. I also come prepared with brushes, extra treats and other pet friendly items! 🤎💛🐶🐱

“Mackenzie was really great! Prioritized my cat and tried to play with her even though my cat is a little shy. She was also very responsive to questions and flexible to any last minute changes!”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs playtime or a senior dog who prefers slow walks and gentle care. I’m patient, observant, and treat every dog like my own—with plenty of affection, attention, and consistency. I’m also comfortable handling special dietary needs, medications, and multi-dog households. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or weekend boarding, I aim to create a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently not working so I will have plenty of time to play with your furry best friend! I’m easy to book and available all day long I have a fenced yard and a friendly 2 year old dachshund. Open to bring them for a neighborhood walk or just chill at my backyard. I’ll also bring them to the dog park if needed

“Haley has been wonderful to work with and we cannot wait to use her again!”
