“Jenna was super prompt and communicative, and took such good care of my two cats while I was away - took the time to play with them and sent great updates & photos. She's the best!”
“Christina really came through in my time of need. She takes such great care of my Benji and Bailey and even manage to navigate my patio construction with grace and humor expressed through her daily updates. She has taken some of the best pictures of the pups too! Highly highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We highly recommend JR to care for your pets. JR went above and beyond when caring for our 2 cats even taking the time to do an extra 2 checkins to make sure our guys were safe and happy. JR also did us a huge last minute favor and watered our plants which we so appreciated. Overall, if you need a reliable pet sitter who goes above and beyond for your pets, hire JR!”
“This was our first time using Maryline as a pet sitter and she did a great job with our three kitties. My one cat can be stubborn about taking his medication and she was able to persuade him. She was also very response. Would definitely recommend : )”
“Melony took care of my cat for two days. She went above and beyond what I asked of her. My cat is extremely friendly and loves people. She spent the whole time playing with him and giving him love. She even cleaned up the litter he kicked out of the box which I had told her she didn’t have to do. Melony was wonderful, kind and caring.”
About: 25-year-old sitter with 10 years of experience. Lifelong connection to cats and dogs of all sizes (large and small breeds). I specialize in active dog adventures, precise cat routines, and giving pet parents complete peace of mind. Your fur baby's happiness and safety is my priority! While I work full-time during weekdays, my evenings and weekends are dedicated entirely to animals! My schedule is ideal for parents who need reliable after-hours care or weekend getaway coverage. I am available for evening drop-ins to handle dinner and bedtime routines, and my weekends are completely open for long walks, outdoor adventures, and overnight stays. Because I live in a cozy condo with limited space, I exclusively provide care inside your home. This allows your pets to stay in their familiar environment, reduces stress, and keeps their exact routines intact!
About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have a dog of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Much of my experience is with dogs and horses. I have taken care of all age ranges starting with puppies and foals to senior animals. I also have experience with cats, goats, pigs, and chickens having grown up in the country. I was an active 4H member and completed their Veterinary Science courses at Cornell, so I feel comfortable giving medications and any wound care your pet may require. I am a Library Director in the Hudson Valley. I set my own schedule so my hours to provide pet services are flexible. I can work with the client to provide what their pets need. I am a responsible professional who owns their own home. I will treat your pets and home like my own and understand the importance of having a reliable, responsible pet sitter.
About: I am a petsmart professional bather! I work with all types of breeds and behaviors. I love getting to make your furry friend feel their best! I currently work part time, I have free time on my days off so the quick access to rover is a huge benefit! Wheather its a potty break or an overnight visit I am sure to be flexible with scheduling:) Three vital things to me are patience, tailoring to pet’s individual needs, and routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or taking them for walks and drop-in visits, I make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. Pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. With my experience working at PetSmart, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Safety is my top priority, and I would love to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Veronica was wonderful with our two cats. I would recommend her to anyone and would use her services again anytime. It was the first time I used a sitter, and it worked out perfectly”
“Leah took great care of our two cats while we were away. We appreciated the daily photo updates and notes on how the cats were doing. Good communicator and very responsive.”
About: I’ve walked and trained my own lab mix (10) as well as worked as a dog walker and sitter for independent clients. I’m great with energetic dogs of all sizes. I work a minimum wage job full time during the week, but am looking to supplement or replace it with dog walking on weekends and evenings. At my clients home I will sit out with the dog and crate it easily if needed. I am able to take the dog out every few hours and love taking them on long walks if desired.
About: I have a very special connection with all animals and will love and care for your pet as if it were my own! I have a lifetime of experience with cats and a few years of experience with dogs, namely raising and training my own dog from ~2 months old. He’s the sweetest, happiest pup and he is very loved! I work from home and have plenty of time to spend with your pet, whether that’s walking them, playing with them or bringing them to appointments!! I don’t have a fenced in yard but have plenty of space to walk and play with your dog outside (or inside!). I can crate the dog if necessary, and my puppy is extremely friendly and welcoming with new dogs!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Chelsea
Catherine (Gianna) was GREAAAAAT. This was my first time booking someone to watch my cats rather than asking friends/family, so I was a bit apprehensive, but Gianna made me so comfortable. We did a meet and greet before our booking which was great. I have a skittish cat who doesn’t like to come out when there are other people around but to my surprise she had no problem coming out when Gianna was there. She sent pictures and gave me updates and even picked up a frame that had fell and cracked. Amazing experience and I will definitely be using Gianna to watch my babies during my next trip!
Loren went above and beyond in watching our cat while we were away for a week! This is the first time we’ve ever had someone outside of family watch our cat and we’re extremely anxious, but Loren put all that to ease! From the meet and greet to the final visit has been extremely stressless for us. She sent extremely detailed notes every visit and even brought up our garbage cans and vacuumed up litter in the basement. Would definitely book again!
Samantha is the best! Our cat, who usually hides from everyone, absolutely loves her visits and even waits for her at the door. She is consistent, always on time, communicates regularly, and is completely trustworthy. We feel so lucky to have her caring for our pet. Highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for reliable and loving assistance with their pet!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Chelsea on Rover is $29.97 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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:

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.
