About: My first job was as a dog walker when I was 12! I have grown up with cats and dogs - caring for them from puppies/kittens through to their golden years. I have also dog/house sat for a large rescue + their several senior cats! My goal is to get to know each pet I interact with so that me and your pet can enjoy our time together. Furry friends are family and I treat them as such. I have also volunteered at 2 different rescues over the past several years helping care for cats as well as walk and play with dogs of all ages. I am currently finishing my last year of medical school so my schedule is not completely free. However, I do typically have evenings, weekends, and a random day off during the week! I get my current schedule 1 month at a time and am happy to accommodate outside my scheduled hospital shifts. I am very respectful of others rules for their home and their pets. I am a tidy person who hates messes in my own home so wouldn't leave them in anyone else's.

“My husband and I met Amya when we were at a routine vet visit with our beautiful cat Hailey. We were instantly amazed at how well Hailey responded to her. Hailey typically feels threatened by people she doesn’t know, yet was calmed by Amya’s presence. We knew that we wanted to hire her to help us administer oral medication‘s to our furbaby. She gave us a link to her Rover account and we hired her that very night.. Amya is a beautiful human being and we’re blessed to have met her.”

About: I am communicative and reliable, I will make sure your pup has the best time during my stay, regular meals, walks, restroom breaks, and non stop fun for the dog. I am responsible and will make sure no danger befalls your beloved furry friend. I may not always available because I go to school and work 2 jobs but I can guarantee you I will be available for your needs at sometime during the day. I will make time for you if not then I will make sure I find a reasonable day and my pricing is great. If I’m chilling at your house with the dog I’ll bring a movie to make sure both of us stay occupied during the stay. Don’t be afraid to call! You might end up being the best decision you ever made. I am currently working throughout the day, but if we schedule and agree on something before hand I will commit to that and make sure I am available for you and your pet. I can not take pets into my home but am able to check up on them in your home and I am able to take them for walks if that is what you prefer.

I have over five years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m a former pet shop owner and a Certified New York Pet Handler, so pet safety, cleanliness, and proper care are extremely important to me. I have experience with feeding, walking, bathing, basic grooming, boarding, playtime, and caring for pets with different routines and needs. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own.

About: I have three dogs of my own, so caring for animals is a consistent and structured part of my daily routine. I prioritize long, intentional walks, enrichment, and balanced play to support both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats, and comfortable with a wide range of sizes, breeds, and temperaments. With dogs, I’m familiar with everything from small companion breeds to larger, more energetic dogs. With cats, I understand the importance of respecting their space, routines, and comfort levels. In both cases, I pay close attention to body language and behavioral cues so I can adapt my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience supporting animals with separation anxiety by providing a calm presence, consistency, and reassurance so they feel secure while their owners are away. I focus on creating a stable, predictable environment that helps reduce stress and build trust. Reliability, patience, and consistency are central to my care. I take time to understand each pet’s routine and reinforce positive behaviors during walks and visits, always aiming to maintain the structure and comfort they are used to at home. I’ve been around animals my entire life and bring both intuition and responsibility to every booking. My goal is simple: to provide safe, attentive, and genuinely caring support so your pets feel comfortable, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I already care for my own dogs every day. I’m used to structuring my schedule around consistent walks, feeding, playtime, and general care, so it’s already built into how I plan my days. I have full-day availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of needs throughout the week, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’m able to adjust my day based on each pet’s routine so they receive consistent, reliable care at the times they’re used to. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight house sitting, I prioritize being present, dependable, and attentive. My goal is to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible while providing calm, consistent care throughout the day or stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, respect, and maintaining a calm, familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided, to ensure consistency and comfort. I am very attentive to each pet’s behavior and body language, which helps me respond appropriately to their needs and ensure they feel safe and understood. For pets that may experience anxiety, I focus on providing a steady, reassuring presence and minimizing disruption to their normal routine. I also provide updates as needed so owners feel informed and at ease throughout my care. I treat every home with care and responsibility, making sure to keep the space clean, secure, and exactly as I found it, while being mindful of safety at all times, including doors, leashes, and any specific household guidelines. My goal is to create a stable, trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, and owners feel confident that both their home and their pet are in reliable hands.

“Marissa is an absolute excellent choice for petsitting. I highly recommend her. She is patient, knowledgeable, and helpful. I had never left my cats alone before and after my experience with her, I felt relieved and reassured everything was going just fine. My cat needs special meal attention and she was able to accommodate him beautifully. She gave me detailed information on what was going on as well as pictures and videos. I will 100% use her in the future! She was amazing!”

About: I’ve owned, or have been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I’ve owned a total of 4 dogs throughout my 22 years of life, and once I was old enough, my parents trusted me to help take care of them all! This includes walks, feeding, showers, hygiene, and playing with them! I love and appreciate all breeds and all sizes, and hope you’ll consider me to take care of your fur babies! I am currently working one, part-time job, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s)! My schedule varies based on a self selecting schedule, however, this leaves room to work around whatever your preferred schedule is! I am very good at staying on top of communication, if there are ever any questions about when I’m home and how long I can be home for, I will be fully transparent! I have a large, fenced in yard, in the back of a spacious, and open layout home! our neighborhood is quiet, dog friendly, and has lots of safe walkways to provide your dog exercise! Me and my roommates also own a total of 3 sweet kitties, that either keep your baby company, or are easy to keep occupied in our individual spaces to provide the most comfortable environment for your dog!

About: I’ve taken care of various breeds of dogs over the past 11 years — including my own, other family members’, as well as friends’ and acquaintances’ — whether it’s for a walk around the neighborhood or spending some quality time while the family’s away Being a teacher, my week availability doesn’t really start till 3:30 (unless there’s a break). However, my weekends are more open, so I have more availability to stop by and visit with your pups! While visiting with your pet, I will keep an eye on them during walks and potty breaks, making sure they are secure on their leash and in their yard.

A Truly Special Person Who Has a Gift with Animals 🩷 I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ella. Leaving my 17-year-old cat, Lily, for 10 days was not easy, especially because Lily is incredibly shy and fearful of people. She was born to a feral mother and, in her 17 years, has never allowed anyone other than me to get close to her. Ella came twice a day to care for Lily, and what happened was truly remarkable. Not only did Ella earn Lily’s trust, but she was actually able to pet her, brush her, and even play with her! Something no one else has ever been able to do. To know that Lily felt safe enough to let Ella into her little world means more to me than words can express. This goes far beyond being a good pet sitter. It takes a very special kind of person to connect with an animal who has spent her entire life keeping humans at a distance. Ella has a beautiful soul, a gentle spirit, and a genuine love for animals that Lily somehow recognized and trusted. Knowing that Lily was not only cared for but also loved, comforted, and given the patience she needed while I was away brought me such peace of mind. I will forever be grateful to Ella for the kindness and compassion she showed my sweet, senior girl. If you are looking for someone to care for your beloved pet as if they were her own, I cannot recommend Ella highly enough. She is truly a rare find, and Lily and I are so lucky to have found her. 💜🐾

I’m a very nervous pet owner, so leaving my cats alone while I’m on vacation is always a stressful experience. But Oluademi did an amazing job taking care of my cats and helped put me at ease every step of the way. She followed my (admittedly pretty complicated) instructions perfectly and with attention to detail. She often went the extra mile to spend time with them and reassure me that they were doing just fine, so I could enjoy my vacation. I would absolutely recommend her!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Uniondale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Uniondale is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $37 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 12,052 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Uniondale. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Uniondale. 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 , 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.
