About: Heyy:), i wanted to be able to explain to you all my experiences with dogs, cats and bunnies. As of right now i am in college for animal care, i am also a part time dog bather! I love being with the dogs all day and I'm used to dogs of all sizes and breeds . I also used to volunteer at a pet shelter for 5 years where i would walk the dogs, go outside to play with them and i also was able to help out with anything the workers needed such as feeding and cleaning the cages, so I’m used to being near dogs and walking them as well , i also played with the cats a lot and just spent time with both the cats and dogs in general. As of right now we own 3 cats .one of our cats needs medicine since he has seizures, so i’m used to administering medications to both cats and also dogs . Ever since i volunteered and also having animals of my own i knew being near animals and being able to work with them while also helping them was something i wanted. So I'm on here to hopefully be able to take care of your fur babies and be there for them like i am with ours:). I currently work as a part time dog bather on Thursdays and Saturdays, so I'm not as free on those days but as of now I'm free the rest of the week to take care of your fur babies! For dog walking, drop ins and also house sitting, your dogs / cats would always be safe in my care, i would always be more then open to doing everything that would be needed for your pet and and anything that would make you comfortable as well:).

“Sunny is punctual and responsive. It seems like our cat warmed up to her by the end of the weekend, and our cat is very shy. Will be looking forward to booking with her again.”

About: I have taken care of pets of all kind, including cats, dogs, senior pets, bearded dragons, turtles and more! I am comfortable and familiar with providing medication such as pills to pets. I have a deep love for animals of all kind, and I can’t wait to be your pets new friend!! 💖 I am currently working full time, but I am always able to make time for your pets! I am happy to work around my schedule. Unfortunately my orange cat Oski is spicy and does not like other animals on his turf (lol!). Because of this, I am more than happy to come to your home where your pet is most comfortable.

Kristen is wonderful! She is thorogh, and attentive to detail. Our dog has some unique needs and she took great care of her. She also kept us informed throughout the day during her check-ins, and responded promptly to any questions I had. I felt very at ease knowing she was taking good care of our fur babies. Will definitely book with her again!

Katie kept our cat fed and her litter box clean while away on vacation. She also gave a couple updates throughout the week which was appreciated.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Chatham is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $47 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.

Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.

To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Chatham choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.

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.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
