Our two cats really liked Mickala. She went above and beyond helping us with several situations such as trimming a cat's nails and cleaning up some ants which got into the auto-feeders.

Grace was so good with our cat, Guppy. She was always on time and followed the instructions we gave her perfectly. Guppy loves to play until he's out of breath, and Grace sent us pictures showing with him panting from the fun time he had. We'd definitely recommend booking with Grace, and we plan to again next time we have to leave town.

We asked Natalie to drop in on our two cats while away for a couple of weeks. Natalie quickly assessed and understood the differing needs and habits of our two indoor/outdoor cats. From her photo updates, they clearly felt comfortable and happy with her. Upon our return after two weeks, both boys were in good health and in good spirits! Thanks!

Kiersten did a wonderful job caring for our cats while we were away. She followed our instructions, and our cats were relaxed and well fed. One of our cats has been sick and she gave him his medicines, and he is looking even healthier than when we left!

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m an Animal Science student with professional experience caring for dogs and a lifetime of experience caring for cats. I offer care in client’s homes through drop-in visits, walks and extended drop-ins. I spent 2 years working at a dog rescue, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning kennels, exercising dogs, monitoring their health and behavior, and helping nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable. Working with rescue dogs taught me how to read body language, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care. I’ve also been a cat owner since I was eight years old and have had four cats throughout my life. My senior cat became disabled later in life, so I have experience with medication, grooming, litter box care, and adapting routines for pets with special needs. That experience gave me a special place in my heart for senior animals and pets who need a little extra patience. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As a full-time Animal Science student, I schedule pet care around my classes and keep my availability updated on Rover. I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, and once I accept a booking your pet becomes a priority. I offer reliable drop-in visits and dog walking, and I’m happy to spend extra time with your pets when needed to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits, walks, and extended drop-ins so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, make safety my top priority, and provide regular photo and message updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother ran an animal rescue, and I was fortunate to spend my childhood helping care for, socialize, and train animals of all kinds; primarily dogs and cats. This experience taught me not only how to understand animal behavior, but also the patience, compassion, and consistency that every pet deserves. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and attention, I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. As a pet sitter and walker, I treat every animal as an individual and make their comfort, safety, and well-being my top priorities. You can expect reliable communication, attentive care, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need an extra helping hand. Experience Highlights * Raised in a family-run animal rescue environment * Experience caring for and handling dogs and cats of all ages * Familiar with basic training and positive reinforcement techniques * Comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and high-energy pets * Patient, gentle, and attentive to individual needs * Reliable communication and dependable care As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, play sessions, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. I take pride in being reliable, responsive, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I provide calm, attentive, and individualized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of companionship and affection. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can respond appropriately to each pet’s comfort level; whether they are energetic, shy, anxious, or senior. I aim to create a safe, relaxed atmosphere where pets feel secure and cared for. If caring for pets in my own home (when applicable), I ensure a quiet, clean, and supervised environment with consistent routines, regular outdoor breaks, enrichment, and lots of attention. Safety is always the top priority, and I only introduce new animals in a controlled and compatible way. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care.

Anna was fantastic! Really went above and beyond with our two cats (who can be a little hornery), but they quickly fell in love with her visits and the extra time she spent with them. Would book again!

Sophia is a sweetheart who really cares about taking good care of your pets! I felt like my kitties were in good hands with her and I know she did everything she could to make sure they had everything they needed while we were away. She kept in contact with me the whole time and sent me pictures which kept my mind at ease. I'll definitely be using her in the future!

About: I have experience with puppy training including friends pups and well as my own. I have worked with shy dogs, bouncing off the wall dogs, big dogs and small ones. I love walks with dogs, snuggles with them, and everything else! Your dog will always be well cared for with me! I’m currently in University, so during the week I have a schedule to work around. However I am available most evenings and I can let dogs out around lunch on Mondays and Wednesdays, and fridays I am available after one. I can do weeknight homestays since I have a car. And my weekends are available for all of the petcare! I can petsit at the clients home. I always keep things clean. I have experience with crate training and I will always follow whatever protocols the pet parent has in place. If the pet sleeps in the bed with them or isn’t allowed on furniture, whatever the pet parent requires I will take into account and follow!

Kayla was so good with my cats! I could tell they really liked her... She had to feed them 3 times a day and there is a little more to it than just putting down 2 plates of food. Kayla sent me pictures of them at every feeding...this made me feel so good! I will definitely use Kayla again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Pelham on Rover is $24.42 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 698 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Pelham. 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 Pelham. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
