“Bryan did an excellent job dropping in on our two elderly dogs and my cat 4x a day for three days. I highly recommend him. He followed my instructions with medications for my dogs precisely. Walked and spent time with them all and sent great pictures and reports daily. We are very pleased with Bryan’s outstanding care for our fur babies. I already rebooked with him for future dates.”
“Kaileigh was an excellent cat sitter for our 2 cats. She was professional with the duties and affectionate with our cats. She made it less stressful to be away from them while we were on vacation. I would highly recommend Kaileigh and we will be using her again.!”
“Mary took wonderful care of my Kitty, Prim. Prim is usually a scaredy-cat and keeps her distance but came right out to Mary for cuddles. Great communication and updates. Will use again. Thank you Mary!”
About: I've always been the go-to gal for my friends and family who need care for their pets. I've made many furry friends over the years. I'm a freelance writer with lots of freedom to come and go, so my schedule is pretty flexible. If you need pet care on short notice, I'll do my best to accommodate. Your pet can enjoy the comfort of its own home while I come over and cater to their needs. We'll become the best of friends!
“Savannah was so friendly and helpful. She handled everything how i would have. My boys are pretty emergentic and cuddly- she was able to really help me feel at ease while we were gone. She did a wonderful job and we will be using her again for sure!”
“Jason and Tracy are awesome! Very thorough and follow your instructions exactly as you like….and my three pups love them after only 2 visits!! I highly recommend them!”
“Thank you Hannah for this trial run. Taking the time to get to know my boys & their schedules We are looking forward to our vacation now knowing they will be well taken care of while we are gone”
“I needed a last minute sitter just to stop at my house and feed my dog this last weekend (mind you- he’s a German Shephard/Lab- he’s a big boy!) breakfast and take him out to go potty. I have been hesitant to use a kennel, as my dog was severely bit a few months ago. So I turned to Rover- Brooke was luckily able to pick up the job at the last minute and help out! She met with me the day before, we video chatted and she was understanding of Ace’s routine and our home guidelines. She has tons of experience with dogs! I highly recommend Brooke & will be using her again!”
“Cristina is an excellent pet sitter! Our sweet kitty is in end stage cancer and Cristina took such great care of her, ensuring she got her shot and monitored her food/water intake to assure us that all was well while we were away. I would definitely hire Cristina again!”
About: Before joining Rover I mainly provided my services through word of mouth. I have experience with providing basic medical care for dogs and cats, and training experience including potty training and easing separation anxiety. I have vast experience and knowledge on various breeds and their specific needs, and really just love being able to have the time and availability to be able to provide these services. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but in my case, a dog has always been a woman’s best friend! I offer dog sitting, walking, training and boarding at my home as well. I am brand new to the app but I do have plenty of references and want to make all owners feel just as comfortable as I want to ensure their pets will feel with me! I currently work a part-time job from my home, so I have a flexible schedule and able to meet any needs your pet has. I am available everyday, all hours mainly, and can accommodate you and your pets schedule! In my home all pets are welcome. I have plenty of walking trails and a back yard for pets that stay at my home. I typically will customize the walks, food, bathing etc depending on the needs of the pet and what works best for them and the owner.
About: I’ve been a lifelong "dog guy" and have spent years caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. As the saying goes, "There are no strangers here; only dog friends you haven't yet met." I’m an expert at making dogs feel loved and secure while their parents are away. I find that exercise and companionship make for happier fur friends. I am a freelancer, which allows me to be very punctual and reliable for morning, mid-day check-ins, or afternoon walks. I understand how hard it is to leave your pet, so I like to send updates and fun photos so you never feel out of the loop. I’m happy to help with: *Standard neighborhood walks/jogs *Drop-in visits for potty breaks and playtime. *Feeding and refreshing water bowls. Attuned to dogs with diet restrictions *Transporting your four-legged loved one to parks (example: Greenbury Point, Quiet Waters Park) *Transporting to the groomer, vet appointments I have great flexibility in the mornings and afternoons. Mon- Friday Morning: 5:00 am - 2:00 pm Evening: 3:30 pm-9:00 pm Saturday-Sunday 5:30 am - 9:00 pm Care in my home: I have a large fenced yard, great for playing catch, if you require morning or afternoon care away from your home. Care at your home, where most pups prefer, I can follow your family's routine: potty breaks, exercise level.
About: All the dog owners I work with love the fact that I love their dogs like they are my babies. I walk them as well as give them cuddle time. Most dogs need cuddles and need to know you are around for them. I maintain a routine for them. I work from home so always around for them. Of course you will get pictures and little love notes from them when you are gone. I know you miss them and they miss you. I have rescued all my pets and worked thru a lot of issues. I have had a therapy dog and am working on my next therapy dog. I have also fostered pups and will continue fostering them. I always bring my dog when i am house sitting. If you have rules for your pets, I will implement them In your absence. I am quite comfortable with getting meds into them or subcu shots. I work from home which allows me to give them lot of attention. Not having a fenced yard means our day starts with a walk and ends with a walk. I take them on walks as they need to go out. I love going to parks with the fur babies for long walks. As a foster mom iam comfortable with dogs that need Meds or have needs.
About: I have taken care of many kinda of animals since I have been young. My neighbors, family, and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and care for their pets! I am a 3rd year PT student doing clinicals in Annapolis, MD. I have time after work to check in, hangout with, and/or walk your furry family members! I am very clean and love to keep my home and work space neat and tidy. While watching for pets I can provide light housekeeping to keep the home looking wonderful for the clients return!
About: I have always been an avid animal lover, and have been an active caretaker in my community. Dogs, cats, fish, you name it. I'm happy to take pets on runs/walks, make sure they get plenty of playtime and love, and treats too. I am mostly available on weekends, and occasionally weekdays, inquire and we can work something out together. But can often stop by to let a pet out during the day. I will follow whatever instructions you have and need for the best care of your animal. I will check in with you if you need me too, and make sure everything is done to your liking.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chester
Rebeka couldn’t be nicer and handled our handful of a dog very well. She responds to messages quickly, and I appreciated her reaching out to confirm the day of our scheduled appointment. She is very prompt and has a lot of dog behavioral experience that is helpful. I would not hesitate to use her again!
Stacey was so great taking care of our two kitties and watching over our home while we were away. She is just so wonderful and thoughtful and our cats love her! Always keeping us up to date on their daily activities and they got plenty of scratches and love from Stacey while we were away. She’s just the best!!
Cristina is an excellent pet sitter! Our sweet kitty is in end stage cancer and Cristina took such great care of her, ensuring she got her shot and monitored her food/water intake to assure us that all was well while we were away. I would definitely hire Cristina again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Chester on Rover is $21.09 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,100 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Chester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Chester stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Chester. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
