Kaitlin did an excellent job watching my pets while I was out of town. I was very nervous about leaving my almost 12-year old blind dog, but Kaitlin had no issues walking her and getting her to take her meds. She was very patient with my cats and even my notoriously shy cat seemed to take a liking to her! I highly recommend hiring Kaitlin for your pet sitting needs!

Rachel was absolutely wonderful with our cats! She was reliable, caring, attentive, and kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cares about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We came home to three very content kitties! We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely trust Rachel with them again. Highly recommend! ❤️

Allison has watched our cat several times for drop-in visits, and she has always been friendly, conscientious, and prompt. We love the pictures and updates she provides. This time she even made us aware of a potential water problem in our house so we weren’t coming back to some kind of disastrous water leak situation. I recommend her 100%!

About: As a couple who shares a home and a deep love for animals, Devin and Precious bring a unique and heartfelt set of skills to pet sitting that truly sets us apart. Having both been raised around dogs from a young age and actively raising dogs together, we bring a lifetime of hands-on experience to every pet we care for. Beyond dogs, we also have experience with reptiles, making us comfortable and confident with a wide variety of animals. Living together means your pet is never left alone — they become a part of our home and our routine, receiving around-the-clock attention, love, and care. We are natural animal lovers and whisperers, which allows us to quickly build genuine connections with your furry friend and tune into their individual needs. One of the core philosophies we live by is positive reinforcement training through treats and healthy diets. This approach builds trust between pets and their owners, encourages great behavior, and supports overall health and wellness. Having experienced the heartbreak of losing our own beloved pups, we understand just how precious these animals are to you. That love and loss is exactly what drives us to show up for other pet owners and give their babies the attentive, compassionate care they deserve. Whether your household includes rambunctious puppies or beloved senior pets, we are fully equipped to provide expert, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in the most loving hands.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Pet care is not just a job for us — it’s a passion. As a couple who both work remotely full-time, we have the flexibility throughout the day to give your pet consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime without disruption to their routine. On weekends, we like to spend time outdoors going for walks and exploring new areas. This means we are more than happy to take your pet along with us and give them the exercise and socialization they need. You can trust that your pet's care is always a top priority for us, and we will make sure to provide the attention and love they need to thrive. Whether we are caring for pets in our home or yours, their safety and comfort are always our top priority. Our home is pet-friendly, and we treat every animal as if they were our own. In our home, we live in a spacious 3- story apartment that is very pet-friendly. Your furry friend will have plenty of room to roam around and play, and we will make sure they feel right at home with lots of love and attention. We are also located near multiple parks, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities to get outside and enjoy some fresh air and exercise.

Mike was amazing with Scooby! He watched him for a couple of weeks and took great care of him the whole time. He was very helpful, easy to communicate with, and made sure we stayed updated every day by sending videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Scooby was in good hands. Highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover 🙌🏽

Maura was absolutely wonderful with Duchess! This was my first time leaving Duchess home without me for several days, so I was definitely a little nervous, but Maura made the entire experience so much easier. She was attentive, spent quality time with her, took her on walks, and made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. I especially appreciated how consistent Maura was with sending updates and pictures and letting me know how Duchess was doing throughout the day. I would absolutely book with Maura again. I think Duchess may have officially found herself a new babysitter!

Sydney was PHENOMENAL! She communicated frequently and clearly and was flexible when I needed an extra day. She gave my cats a lot of attention and played with them — which was so great because they are young and need human interaction! I received amazing pictures and updates daily. Came home to a clean home and happy cats. Ten out of ten will absolutely book again!

Jason is the absolute best. Not only did he take loving care of our kitties (and provide such cute pics), when I received an alert from DC water that there was water running at our house he went back to the house and turned off the valve to a running toilet.

Adriyana was wonderful with our older Persian cat. He needs several medications and can get very sad when he is alone—sometimes even refusing to eat, but Adriyana was incredibly patient, caring, and attentive. She carefully gave all of his medications, played with him, and gave him treats, which made us feel so at ease. She was always very punctual, reliable, and genuinely compassionate. We are so grateful for her care and will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Idit is a great cat sitter - she takes her time with my cat and plays with her at my cat’s own speed (Freyja can be fickle in which toys she likes to play with.). She was very attentive to her and was sure to give her lots of pets. She’s very nice and easy to work with, and definitely open to listening to any pet concerns or things to watch out for while you’re away.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Chillum

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Chillum on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,044 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Chillum. 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 Chillum. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
