“Alana did such a fantastic job with our 2 kitties. She was always on time, and sent pictures and an update every single evening after she finished her visit. When an unexpected issue popped up with one of our cat's automatic daytime feeders, she handled it and sent a report so we would be aware of what occurred but also reassured that everything was back to normal. She remembered every single "extra" detail...and we all have them as pet parents, don't we? 😊 I would absolutely request Alana in the future to care for our babies. If you're on the fence, let this review be the one that confirms it. Alana is the right choice!”
“Jordan did a great job with my girls! She followed all instructions and even got my puppy to use the bathroom so I don’t have to worry about her in her kennel! She also brought in an Amazon package and put it on the stairs for me. I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I always tell my clients that I will treat their animals like my own. I want your pets experience to feel comforting, enjoyable, and reliable. I have pet sit for 8 years now. I fit it in mostly on weekends now that I have a dog of my own but I could potentially do it full time in the near future. I want to state that I do not stay overnight with your dog but will give them the needed attention and care multiple times a day and be right back to do the same the following day. I have a fenced in yard for my dog and a doggy door for her to let herself in and out during the day. I don’t leave her longer than 5 hours. I believe pets thrive off of human interaction and we are their best friend and all they know. Trust in me to give your pet a good time while you’re away. I will work off of you and your pets needs.
“Christina was amazing! My cat, Cece, loved her. Cece normally never comes out for anyone when we are gone but she came out for Christina and got some pets and love almost every day we were gone. Clearly she was very comfortable with her and felt safe. She even went and picked up a package for me at the leasing office because it needed to be refrigerated and came earlier than expected. Will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was about 10 years old. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as the dogs and cats of family and friends, and I genuinely love getting to know every animal’s unique personality. I currently have 4 cats and 1 dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has different routines, personalities, and needs. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company while you’re away, or your pet simply needs someone to stop by, give them attention, and make sure everything is taken care of, I’m happy to help. My goal is simple: I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Hi! I’m Cory, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own, so I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can actually trust when you can’t be there for your pets. I love spending time with animals, whether that’s going for a walk, playing with an energetic dog, giving a shy pet some time to warm up to me, or simply hanging out with them and giving them some attention and companionship. For drop-in visits, I can help with things like feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, litter boxes, and making sure your pet is comfortable and happy. I’ll also make sure your home is left the way I found it. I currently work as a bartender Tuesday through Friday from 11 AM–6 PM, which gives me availability before and after work on those days. I’m also available throughout the rest of the week, including weekends and Mondays. Your pet’s routine matters to me. I’ll follow your instructions, respect their normal schedule, and keep you updated so you don’t have to wonder how they’re doing. I know how much I worry about my own pets when I’m away, and I want to give you that same peace of mind. I can’t promise your pet won’t end up liking me a little too much—but I’ll do my best. 🐶🐱 I love to sit and love on all the animals and play with them! I can take them on any length walk or just provide company for them
About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and caring for pets is something that comes very naturally to me. I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets when you can’t be there, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being treated with the same love and attention I’d give my own. We currently have three cats—one outdoor cat and two indoor cats—as well as two bunnies who have their own separate space. Our cats are extremely well socialized and are accustomed to being around other cats, dogs, and our bunnies. We do not currently have a dog of our own. I’m comfortable with all the everyday things that make a big difference: feeding routines, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter boxes, keeping spaces clean, and, of course, plenty of attention and affection. I also understand that every animal has its own personality. Some want to be right beside you, while others need a little more patience and space before they feel comfortable. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while they’re in my care. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and keep you updated along the way, so you can relax knowing your pet is being genuinely cared for. I am a stay-at-home/Homeschooling Mom to an 8 year old son. We offer boarding Monday-Friday and some holidays. We welcome all fur babies and truly enjoy the time we get to spend with each one of them. An area of my back yard is fenced while the other half is open. We have plenty of shaded space available for those hot days while enjoying the beautiful weather!
“We are very grateful to Kordell for taking long (2 weeks) care of our Kotik (cat). At the end, Kotik felt himself with Kordell as in his own house. Great job! Thank you.”
About: I have taken care of family, friends and neighbors animals for years. I also worked at a vet before having children.5 yrs. Have watched over animals and took care of them while they were boarding and after surgery. Ive owned different breeds and sizes of dogs. I love them all I can give oral medicine as well as insulin shots. My visits include feeding, refilling water, meds if necessary, playtime and lap time. I have referrals if needed. Please let me love on your fur babies while you’re away. Pics are included in visits. I am a stay at home mom with two daughters in college. I would love to spend some time with your babies to help with my empty nest syndrome. It would be a pleasure. I have two dogs right now and they are inside with me. They are housebroken and very well trained. They also sleep with me at night. They give me company and someone to talk to.
About: I’m an educator, dad, and lifelong pet owner with more than 20 years of experience caring for animals. Pets have always been part of my family, so I understand that trusting someone with yours is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable following established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable. As an early childhood professor, caregiving, observation, communication, and responsibility are quite literally part of what I do every day. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and affection I expect for my own. As a university professor, my schedule offers more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5, particularly on certain weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also a dad, so planning, routines, and being dependable are already a big part of my life! I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s normal schedule whenever possible and will always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. I know pets are family, and I treat both your pet and your home with that level of care and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain established feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines, and pay attention to changes in behavior or appetite. I’m patient about letting pets warm up to me at their own pace and prioritize safety at all times. You can also expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away. I know how reassuring it is to know that someone you love is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: Growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs and various animals, I developed a deep love for pet care. Now, with three beloved cats of my own, I bring years of hands-on experience and genuine passion to every pet I care for. Your pet will be treated like family! I work until 4pm Monday through Friday. I can be available any time after that during the week, and am available any time on the weekends. In both my home and clients' homes, I prioritize safety and comfort. I maintain a pet-friendly, clean environment, always following any specific care instructions to ensure your pet's routine is uninterrupted. Building trust through clear communication and attentive care is my top priority, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands.
About: I have had cats since I was little and I've always adored them. I've read as many books about cats as I could get my hands on so I know how to understand them and take care of them. I have two furrbabies at home, Miracle and Midnight. I do work nine to five Monday through Friday but I could very easily drop in on any evening or weekend that I am available. I'm very careful when opening doors that lead outside to make sure no one escapes. I also am careful to do a sweep of the house to make sure nothing dangerous or toxic is left out that they could ingest or get into.
About: I am very versatile in the field of dog sitting! I’ve dog sat for owners who have puppies up to 110 pounds dogs! I definitely love em all :)!! I work a part time job usually in the evenings! I am a teacher during the school year :)! Right now, my other job is typically 4 pm-10pm. I care for each dog as if it’s my own! They all have a special place in my heart :)! But I care for each pet exactly how the owner asks!
“Madison’s experience at the vet gives our family such confidence that we can leave our dog in the best of hands. Her knowledge on how to handle “skiddish” dogs was perfect for our animal. She’s always on time and dependable. Boba loves her and that’s the most important thing to us. I would 100% recommend her to watch any type of animal you have.”
“Loralyn was wonderful to work with. She is professional and kind. My cat takes oral medication and she handled it with ease. I would recommend her and will definitely book her again!”
About: I grew up with a dog in one home and a cat in the other after my parents divorced. Both animals made it to old age and got plenty of attention. I work Tuesday-Saturday and get off at 6:00 unless it’s winter time then I’m off at 5:00. I also have other hobbies/responsibilities but the schedules for those are flexible. I live in a full house so I will have people able to sit the pets during my working hours too. Dogs and cats will be given food, water, protection, attention, play, and have multiple people in the house with experience in taking care of animals.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Pelham is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Pelham
Jessie was amazing!! She was very dependable and took great care of our cat, Luna, while were on vacation. Our shy cat warmed up to her very quickly and was happy to see Jessie each day. We loved that Jessie sent us pictures and videos with daily updates. I could tell that Luna was in great hands and much less stressed. Jessie treated Luna just like her own fur baby and gave her all the love and attention she is used to getting while we are home. Overall, this was such a great experience, and I would recommend Jessie to anyone. We will definitely book again next time.
Meradith was absolutely wonderful with my cat while my husband and I went on our honeymoon! We got photos and an update every day and I knew he was in great hands. She went above and beyond! She will ABSOLUTELY be my first ask any time I need a sitter in the future.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Pelham is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
