About: I've been surrounded by dogs/cats my whole life and currently have 2 dogs & 1 cat of my own. I volunteer for animal rescue groups and have always wanted to work in an animal related field. I am a certified dog trainer through Petco & Petsmart therefore, I am educated on the characteristics/behavioral tendencies of each breed & familiar as to what they require. I strive to make each four legged pal feel comfortable with me as well. Making each animal feel like they are my own is important to me so they receive the love, attention and care that they need. I've pet sat at my home as well as others homes. I've also had all types of experiences with dogs/cats so I know how to control a bad situation. I have open availability and am very flexible. I am mobile as well. I'm looking foward to meeting your furbaby & making more furry friends. I am currently not working, and I have open availability to take care of your furry friends no matter how long you need! Your pet will fit perfectly into my daily routine. Your pets safety and comfortably is my number 1 priority. If you have any special request or accommodations, that is no problem. Please don’t be shy!

“Caroline stepped right in as a wonderful help to our Scottish terrier puppy Daisy! My mom in law had needed to cut back on the days she watches Daisy while I am teaching Art. Luckily I found Caroline quickly and her great reviews surely are correct :)! Daisy is already happily warming up to Caroline as Daisy is working on getting used to new people. Caroline already has been working in ways to get Daisy comfortable and calmer :)”

“Carina did a wonderful job of taking care of my cat while our family was away for 9 days. We have security cameras so in addition to the check-in and check-out on Rover, my cameras alerted me to when she arrived and left. She showed up every day and sent me reports on his eating and bathroom habits as well as pictures of him playing with her and getting pets and treats. I will definitely use Carina again if she's available!”

“Remi was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of my two cats while I was away and gave me real peace of mind. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which meant so much to me. My cats can be very shy, but I could tell they were well looked after. She even went above and beyond by making sure everything was taken care of while I was gone. I highly recommend Remi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you again, Remi, for taking such wonderful care of Noah and Naomi!”

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’m a current veterinary student with over 10 years of hands on animal care experience, including working in veterinary medicine in Arizona. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and medical needs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and supporting both puppies and senior pets. I also have two dogs of my own a senior dog and a high-energy Australian Shepherd so I understand the patience, structure, and attention different pets need. Whether your dog loves slow, relaxed walks or needs lots of activity and stimulation, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize both their safety and happiness, so you can feel confident they’re in knowledgeable and caring hands I’m a veterinary student with hands on animal care experience, so my availability varies depending on classes during the semesters. Besides classes and attending to my own pets, we can discuss flexible scheduling. Please reach out prior as my calendar may not always reflect my availability. I provide attentive, reliable care during dog walks and drop in visits, following all instructions closely, feeding, medications, or any special needs while keeping pets safe and comfortable. I understand pet behavior and body language, so I can respond calmly and appropriately in any situation. I focus on creating a secure and stress-free experience for every pet. While I’m not offering overnight stays at this time, every walk and visit is designed to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away.

I could really trust Harshita with my cats while I was away. I have worked with her twice and both times she brought in my mail and fed my fish unprompted. She also followed my instructions to administer oral medications to one of my cats, and sent pictures. I could tell she really cared for my cats by the care and detail she provided. She was very professional to work with also. I had no problems and will book her again for the future.

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!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Jericho

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Jericho is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 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 November 2026, there are 3,410 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jericho. 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 Jericho. 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.
