“I can’t say enough good things about Megan! She is amazing! She was able to come in on such short notice due to a prior sitter not working out. She dealt with my animals when they were the most unruly. I swear, they pulled out all the tricks just for her and handled it so well. I would trust her with my whole farm any day! My dogs, sheep, chickens, rabbits and cat have never been in such good hands. Thank you, Megan for being a literal God send during my vacation!”
“Julia has watched our dogs for years. She has taken the time to get to know each one and understands exactly what they need. We have a a few dogs that need medication and Julia always ensures they get what they need. I would definitely recommend Julia to anyone looking for an honest, reliable and caring individual for their dog(s) needs.”
“Lila was wonderful, thoughtful and gentle with Sparky. We came home and he was happy and we felt that he was well taken care of. The daily check ins were fun and we felt comfortable and relaxed that he was with a kind and compassionate person. Thank you again for all you did.”
“Tina came for a meet and greet and my husband and I instantly knew she would be great because our dog, who is afraid of everyone and everything, started loving on her instantly. She has never done that with strangers in her 3 1/2 years so right away that spoke volumes to us. We are looking forward to our babies getting to know Tina. Thank you Tina for spending some of your time meeting all of us.”
“As expected, Cassie was amazing. Even when Dante changed his mind and decided he did NOT want a visit & he'd rather be scary & overprotective, Cassie didn't bail on him, but rather talked him down and helped him calm down. She quite literally saved our weekend, and let us know every detail so that we can work on it going forward. We'll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
About: I have pet sit all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, frogs, turtles, you name it. I have always lived with a dog since I was born, and also have two adopted cats. I have raised chickens and ducks from hatchlings and cared for goats. I have also worked at a doggy daycare, specializing in yard management, food, medicine, bathing, and senior care. I work part time on the weekends as a server, so I am available anytime on weekdays to take care of your pets! Weekends I am normally available mornings. I love spending time with any pets, so I would give them the best care I could and hang out with them afterwards to make them not just healthy, but happy as well.
“Amazing!! Took care of Tex well beyond what was expected and really enjoyed the pic and video updates. Was very responsive and so kind. Highly recommend if you don’t want to be worried if your pup is getting the care and attention they deserve.”
About: I've been a passionate animal caretaker most of my life. At a young age I began pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors. I raised several litters of bunnies, was the whelping helper for my Scottish Terrier twice, and rescued an African Grey Parrot 27 years ago. He is happily living with my Shih Tzu and Great Pyrenees. My husband and I have two adult college students, so our pets are extra spoiled these days! I'm currently an Elementary School Teacher, so I am available after 3pm during the weekdays. I am available and flexible on the weekends and during the summer. I would like to know your rules and procedures that are expected in your home, so I can provide that same care to keep your pets happy and safe.
“Courtney is phenomenal. She’s watched my black lab a couple of times this summer and I could not be any happier. She plays with my doggie, sends pictures of every visit and always goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I’m Jackie, a reliable and caring pet sitter who truly enjoys being around animals. I’ve had dogs in the past and currently have a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet’s care and routine. I’ve also filled in for my sister-in-law’s dog walking clients, so I’m comfortable handling different dogs, following schedules, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid-back, I take the time to match their comfort level and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I follow owner instructions closely. You can expect dependable service, a calm approach, and regular updates so you know your pet is doing well. What I offer: • Dog walking and drop-in visits • Feeding and fresh water checks • Playtime and companionship • Litter box and basic cleanup • Photo and message updates • Care tailored to your pet’s routine Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family member! I work from home, which gives me flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9 AM to 2 PM. Because I work remotely, I’m able to plan my day around scheduled visits and give pets my full attention during that time. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority to be on time, consistent, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I always focus on safety, routine, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and behavior guidelines. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so I can keep their stress as low as possible.

As a responsible pet sitter/walker, I keep owners updated and follow routine in order to keep your pet happy and loved while you’re away:) Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible weekday schedule. I’m currently a student at Wilmington University, while balancing mutiple side incomes as a 23 year old in today’s world. I’m available throughout the week for walks or drop-in visits, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet's needs. I care for every pet like they're my own. I follow their usual routine, make sure they have food, water, exercise, and lots of attention, and I always follow the owner's instructions. My priority is keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable.
“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
“Tracy was amazing with our big guy, Knox! We loved receiving photos and updates on how the walk/visit went. So thankful that she lives close by and can’t wait to continue to use her in our future. Highly Recommended!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,776 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Chatham. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chatham. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
