About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My first job was as an Animal Care Technician with the Humane Society, and I later worked at a military veterinary clinic for more than five years. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I’ve been passionate about since childhood. I’ve always had pets of my own and have rescued many animals over the years. To me, pets are family, not just animals. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their home. I’ll follow and reinforce your training and household rules, while also making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I tailor their care to their individual personality and energy level. I currently work full-time. But not too far from my job. So I can always come home to let pets out if need be. I will be available to give them all the attention in the afternoon and on the weekends with the help of my kids who just adore any animal. I have a fenced in yard with one dog and one cat to keep your pet company. I can also crate your pet if needed.

I had a short notice request and Gregory was so accommodating. He was great with my three goofy dogs and they were so happy after the drop in visits.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals of all kinds my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I truly love animals and treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. I’ve been pet sitting for several years and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or just some extra love and attention. My flexible schedule allows me to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care and companionship they’re used to while you’re away. 🐾❤️ My home is a safe and comfortable place for your pet to relax and feel at home. I have a partially fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and stretch their legs. I also have a screened-in porch that’s perfect for lounging and enjoying the outdoors while staying safe and secure. Your pet will be treated like part of the family while they’re here! 🐾❤️

Ashley arrived on time, and took great care of the cats. She feed them, and played with them. Checked and cleaned the litter. She cleaned out the wet cat food cans, as requested, and made sure their food and water was full and clean.

Ellen took wonderful care of our cat Seven while my husband and I were out of town for several days. She sent detailed updates daily with photos, made sure to give Seven lots of playtime with his favorite toys, and kept our home in spotless condition as well. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a responsible, communicative sitter who loves cats!

About: While working as a travel nurse, I had the privilege of staying in many homes with pets of all personalities and needs, giving me experience adapting to different routines and environments. I bring a calm, grounded, and intuitive presence that helps animals feel safe and at ease. I'm naturally nurturing (a mama to my own two kitties), attentive to the little details, and I truly enjoy building trust with every animal. My goal is for your pet to feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away, and for you to have complete peace of mind. I genuinely enjoy starting and ending my day with walks, playtime, feeding, and quality time with animals. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care while giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I love being outdoors, so daily walks are something I truly look forward to, and I always make time for cuddles, enrichment, and keeping pets comfortable in their own routine. My parents have an elderly cockapoo who has taught me the importance of patience, gentle care, and paying attention to the little changes that come with aging. My husband and I also have two cats, so I'm familiar with their daily routines, from feeding and litter box care to playtime, affection, and respecting each cat's unique personality. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved every day.

About: I’ve had animals throughout my entire life. When I was younger, my parents ran a boarding kennel and my father bred dogs. I grew up on a farm with about five horses, 35 dogs, several cats, a bird, lizards, fish, hermit crabs, etc. My father trained my brother and I to race sled dogs at a young age and we did that for several years along with horseback riding. With that being said, I have extensive experience with different types of animals, and I am confident that you’re fur baby will be in good hands and have the time of their life while under my supervision. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently working at a private residence where I make my own hours , so I have plenty of time to take care of your baby! I can accommodate you and your pet(s)in whichever way you desire! I usually bring my little tuxedo cat with me on trips if it’s an overnight, but if you would rather me not, we can always work something out and discuss our options! (:

She maintained a high level of communication and I never had to worry. I highly recommend her for taking care of any pet you need!

About: I have always lived in household with a minimum of 3 dogs, dogs have been my companions before I could walk. Now I’m always with my service dog, Winnie. I worked with a program to train my own service dog. He’s a friendly little golden retriever, and a fast friend. During his training I learned the importance of trust routine, and patience with dogs. I’m currently working part time from 7:30 to 2 pm Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and 10-3 on Saturdays. I am always up for hiking or a short walk with dogs. I have a service dog who comes with me everywhere, he’s a gentle and easy friend, and generally good with other dogs. He’s just as happy to play as he is to nap.

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.

Cheyenne was prompt, flexible, communicative and compassionate and took care of my Indigo and Remy beautifully while I was away! I felt a peace of mind and at ease with her knowing her experience, and Remy felt almost immediately comfortable in her presence, which speaks volumes since he can tend to be skeptical of strangers. I would absolutely keep Cheyenne in mind for future sits!! Thank you so much, Cheyenne!

Lexi took care of my two cats for 4 days over the Christmas holiday. She is reliable, friendly and competent as a pet caregiver. My cats were happy and relaxed when I returned home, proving they were well cared for. I will definitely hire Lexi again.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - East Chatham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 796 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across East Chatham. 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 East Chatham 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 East Chatham. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
