“Rachel is wonderful :) My two rescues can be quite reactive and skittish to just about any change in lifestyle. She's more than willing to jump right in & find what works for everyone. I will be using her as a regular sitter from here on out!”
About: For two years, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs through walks, drop-ins, and longer stays. I’ll make sure your pup gets the exercise, attention, and care they need while keeping you updated every step of the way. With advance scheduling I can walk dogs at any time and do drop-ins before 7pm! Happy to walk dogs as early as 8am and as late as 6pm. For dogs, I always make sure they are hydrated and fed first (unless there is a specific routine) then we go into a walk and some play if they’re up to it! For the cats, I make sure they’re hydrated and fed usually after a play session so they feel satisfied and can rest easily.
About: I have had dogs sinceI was a child. I know how to do basic puppy obedience training, specialized diets, senior care, long walks, training new fun tricks, bathing, and more! I can work almost any day of the week if given notice in advance! I am a very active person and can do multiple walks per day if nessecary I can easily crate dogs and deescalate situations that may be hard to handle. I keep all belongings and other items out of reach from the dog, including table food, and anything else that we don’t want out fur babies getting into!
“We are incredibly grateful to Karen for taking such wonderful care of our two dogs during our vacation through drop-in visits at the house. This enabled them to stay where they were comfortable and not be boarded. Karen was both professional and friendly, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was in contact with photos and summaries of visits which gave us peace of mind. She fed them, let them out, and engaged them in play. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs, and they loved her. We will certainly be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Karen, for your outstanding care!”
“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 🙏”
“Sam is incredibly empathetic person! She took such a great care of our girl and we would highly recommend her to anyone. Looking forward to invite her again when we will be traveling.”
About: Ive had dogs my entire life. From when i was 4 years old with my very first cockapoo (who lived to be 16 years). To now as a college graduate, with three dogs of my own. All who have different personalities and age ranges. I have a genuine love for dogs and love yours as my own. Two of my current dogs are seniors so im comfortable with handling your old man/lady. Also i have all my dogs since they were puppies. So im used to that chaotic life stage. As a current college graduate (taking a few online classes) my schedule is very flexible. I can come and visit your furry friend almost any time of the day. My own dogs are crated trained as well as i have a fenced backyard. So i feel comfortable putting ur dog in a crate if needed. Im all about the dogs comfort
“Janhvi was excellent. The experience felt luxurious with the way she operated. Never missed a visit, pics, vids and full report every time. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Heeyoung was awesome. We had a wedding to go to and realized last minute that we needed someone to watch Ollie, our 4 month old Basenji. We contacted Heeyoung the day before, she responded so quickly and was able to come to our house, meet Ollie, go over all the instructions and we were all set. She came on the night of the wedding, texted us when she got to our house, she also texted us all the details of her visit, and then again when she left. Such a terrific experience and Heeyoung was so gentle and caring with Ollie. Will definitely will be using Heeyoung for future dog sitting and will be meeting with her over the summer to discuss boarding Ollie when we go on vacation. Thank you Heeyoung!!”
“Lisa did an amazing job looking after our precious kitty. My cat Sophie is a shy one but she made fast friends with Lisa right away. Lisa went above and beyond to make sure Sophie had everything she needs to be happy and comfortable. She sent me lots of updates and pictures which I appreciated very much. Communication was great. Already booked Lisa again!”
About: I’ve been walking all my friend’s different type of dogs since I was 14! I owned a Shiba Inu and I love playing with him. I am currently taking a gap so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m usually free in the afternoons and would love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their dog feels safe and comfortable. I can take them on walks, play with them, and keep them company depending on what they need.
“Harshita was a great sitter! She performed all her tasks meticulously. I wasn’t worried about my cats while they were under her care. I had peace of mind while my family and I traveled overseas. I also appreciated how she went above and beyond to tidy up the house before the booking reservation was over. She took out the garbage, cleaned up around the litter and food area, swept and did the dishes. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely rebook her for the future!”
About: I have been caring for pets since I was a child! I will only take on 1 or 2 pets at a time, so that I can provide the best care for your pet! Free in the mornings / late afternoons during the week, available all weekends. Summers are completely free/open during the week and weekend. I can adjust as needed Fenced yard at my apartment! I will create a safe and comfortable space for them in your home or mine. Any food needs will be given accordingly. Affection and attention will be given of course!
“Chrissy did an outstanding job taking care of my puppy. I was very worried about leaving my puppy alone for the first time but Chrissy eased my concerns. She made sure that my puppy was given love and care while I was away. Not only was Chrissy professional, but you can tell that she has a deep love for animals. I would definitely use Chrissy again.”
“Mary was wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect pet sitter. Upon meeting her, I knew immediately that my dogs would be well taken care of, and the pictures she sent me while I was away assured me that my dogs were very happy while in her care.”
“Michelle was great with Slater. She is a true animal lover, very caring. She is considerate, professional and clean. I would recommend her to anyone. Your pet will love her. I will def use her care again in the future. 5 stars. 👍”

Stephanie once again cared for my four cats -- this time for 10 days. She is so great to work with. Responsive and responsible. She sent pictures daily, spent time giving my curmudgeonly kitties love and play time, and ultimately allowed me to enjoy my vacation without a single worry. She is just a wonderful.
Katelyn is one of the best pet sitters in Rover! She’s consistent and reliable. She gives me daily updates of my babies and pictures, their litterboxes get cleaned and food/water refilled. She goes above and beyond and takes out the litter/trash. I’m confident that my babies are cared for whenever I go on vacation. Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Hicksville on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 11,669 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hicksville. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
