I just returned from a last-minute trip. I contacted Haowen two days before, and he was super accommodating. We met two days before my flight. My dog immediately warmed up to him, and I knew he would be great with her. During the trip, he sent me tons of pictures of them walking and playing. He's a great person, and I would definitely recommend him! I'm going to be a repeat customer, too! Thanks so much, Haowen!

Annaliese was incredibly thoughtful, caring, and attentive to my kitten. I truly could not have asked for a better pet sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure that Skippito was happy, comfortable, and loved. In addition, she was very communicative and kept me in the loop with how my little guy was doing the entire duration of my trip away.

We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter! From the moment we met at the meet and greet, it was clear that our cat was in caring, capable, and experienced hands. Not only did Jenin provide lots of love, attention, and regular updates while we were away, but she also confidently administered our cat's insulin injections twice a day with great care and professionalism. Knowing that our diabetic cat was receiving the correct medication on schedule gave us complete peace of mind, which is priceless when you're away from home. We have already booked Jenin for our next vacation, knowing that our cat will be very well cared for while we are away.

Elisa was absolutely wonderful, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She came to our rescue at the very last minute while we were out of the country, and she went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly patient, compassionate, and attentive with all three of our cats. She took the time to understand each of their personalities and made sure each one received the care they needed. Our newest kitten, Sally, was recovering from a medical issue and required daily oral medication, and Elisa handled a very challenging situation with remarkable calm, professionalism, and kindness. It was immediately clear that she has extensive experience with animals and is exceptionally knowledgeable about feline behavior. Knowing our cats were in her care gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were thousands of miles away. Elisa was also an excellent communicator, keeping us updated throughout every visit and making us feel connected despite the distance. We are so grateful that she was willing to help us on such short notice, and we truly don’t know what we would have done without her. I recommend Elisa 100% and would trust her with our cats again without hesitation. She is an outstanding pet sitter.

Also, she ends her visit by providing detailed updates of how cats were doing during her visit and sends out cute pictures of them which helps me feel reassured that they are in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Chelsea on Rover is $28.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 4,729 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Chelsea. 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 Chelsea. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
