About: I absolutely love animals. I have been helping friends and neighbors with watching their pets for years. I currently have two dogs myself, one with complicated medical needs. I am confident I would be able to care for your pets no matter their age. I currently work from home 2-3 days per week and am available most weekends. Our two Poms love to play and cuddle with us on the couch. Your pets would be welcome to join us on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard. I live in a dead-end street near the rail trail so walks are a breeze and do not have me near any main roads. I do have two Pomeranians to keep your pets company while with us. Both of my dogs are fixed and friendly.
“Nicole took great care of our cat while we were away! She was very flexible, easy to communicate with and made sure to give us updates along the way. We would definitely recommend!”
“Ellie loved Jialin! She came inside from after the walk eagerly to tell us about her new best friend. I will absolutely be rebooking with her. So lucky to find her and John.”
About: Hi there! I’m your friendly neighborhood dog enthusiast 🐾 As a proud pet parent of two spoiled pups, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone who treats your fur baby like family. Whether it’s a belly rub, a game of fetch, or a nice walk around the block, I bring the same love and care to your dog as I do my own. Animal care isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s a passion. I’m the kind of person who says hi to every dog on the street (and usually remembers their name better than the owner’s 😅). Whether your pup is a couch potato or a zoomies champion, I’m here to keep their tail wagging and their heart happy. I'm here to make your pet’s day paws-itively amazing! 🐶✨ I'm located in West Sand Lake/East Greenbush area. I live with my parents and my son who is under 2. I work from home and have a backyard. I adore animals and love to care for them. I treat all pets with respect. I follow directions very closely and send lots of update photos if you’re missing your fur baby. You can rest assured they’ll be loved!
About: I am the son of a former vet tech and zookeeper. For as long as I can remember caring for animals of all kinds has been an ingrained mindset and part of my life. I have many years of sitting, fostering, and adopting animals of various species, age, temperament, and medical needs. I pride myself of showing up for my clients and their pets needs and understand the anxieties inherent in watching your home and invaluable pets wellbeing. I work part time with a relatively flexible schedule. If booked, I understand the importance of enrichment and varying levels of time and attentiveness needed. Pets are all unique and I prioritize meeting my client's needs for their pets. Understanding the importance of trust in any pet sitting work is not something I take lightly. Your home and pets wellbeing are my top priority. I am happy to meet client's request for updates with photos and and info to ease any worries.
About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats. My family was part of helping a farm when i was little, I got to take care of ducks. They were so cute. I love animals and let me know if you had questions. I work at Marshall’s. I will be taking care of the animals during my days off. I will make sure they have everything they need I grew up with cats and dogs. I love all kinds of animals. I will take good care of them. I can bring them to my house as well.
“Stephanie was super friendly and communicative and my dog, who can be a bit skittish around strangers, seemed to open up to her really quick! It’s clear that she absolutely loves animals and I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets informally for my entire life and professionally starting 12 years ago. I care for each pet like they are my own. I am sensitive to their energy and needs. I am able to work with animals who have unique social/emotional and medical needs. I mainly work with dogs and cats but am also experienced in caring for small animals like rabbits, birds, reptiles and fish. I’m currently working part-time, and my schedule varies a bit week to week. I am free mornings and evenings, most Thursdays, as well as Mondays after 2 pm. I usually work shifts under 8 hours, so with good communication I would be thrilled to come up with a plan that will suit you and your pet(s). For now, I am able to care for and board cats and small animals in my home. In the summer, I can board dogs in my fenced in yard. For dogs and larger animals, I can take them for walks and pet sit by traveling to your home. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I have managed to ensure my pet rabbit feels safe while also living with a rambunctious one-year-old labrador retriever. I am always cautious about my pets and my clients’ pet’s whereabouts. I’ve helped return missing neighborhood cats and dogs to their owners as well as assist with unexpected visits to the vet.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs (and cats) for over 20 years now. Along the way, friends, and family members have trusted me with taking care of their furry friends! Including walking, feeding, bathing, training, and of course playing with them! I work a full time job with flexible hours, I take care of pets in my free time just because of my love for pets! The only required time I have is from 9am-1pm on Sundays, othere then that there should be no contentions with my schedule. In my own apartment, there is currently a cat, he is very friendly and gets along and plays with others. In most cases, I travel and care for pets at the clients house (especially for overnight and long term stays.)
“Sam was with Laila a couple weeks before she passed,but she was amazing and was so patient with my girl. Sam has a great compassionate way towards animals. You'll feel reassurance and know she takes great care of them. 💕”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 851 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Chatham Center. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chatham Center. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
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.
