“Rob was so patient with my Petey (who can be reactive to new people). Rob handled all Petey’s care beautifully and sent me pics so I wouldn’t worry. Highly recommend Rob who helped us out without a lot of notice!”
“Rich did a great job caring for my 3 Huskies in my home. He is reliable, prompt and always communicated before and/or after each visit. I would definitely recommend Rich to care for pets.”
About: I have been a dog owner of all different breeds since childhood. I'm also a dog walker for the local community and enjoy every minute of it. I look forward to making some new furry friends and will treat them like my own. Please share as many details as you can about your pup, so I can care for them well. Thank you for your interest. I am self employed, so have plenty of flexibility for pup care. Although I cannot accommodate pups at my home, I can take them to the local beaches and trails. Car rides welcomed 🐶 I currently do not have the ability to house pups. For now my availability is strictly coming to the home for walks and/or pet sitting.
“On short notice, Chelsea recently took care of Cape Cod’s newest “wash-a-shore” cats, Humpty Dumpty & Red. Right from her initial visit, I knew that I had hired someone who was not only professional & knowledgeable, but was also passionate about caring for animals! My cats & I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter!”
“Staci did a wonderful job caring for and taking care of our cat I felt secure leaving her with our little guy. He even came out and sat with him. Which is rare for our cat. Thank you Staci!! I would definitely hire her again”
“Tracy is amazing! We’ve bee. Trying to find someone for years for our small dog who can be very fearful. He took to her immediately and loved her! Tracy truly cares and is completely trustworthy. I’d recommend her to anyone!”
About: I am a very compassionate, enthusiastic person that absolutely loves dogs! I don’t have a dog of my own anymore and only take one dog with no other dogs - unless the dogs in your family are more than one - the more the merrier in that case I’m in! I know many dogs do not get along with other dogs which is normal for many dogs, no worries I get it! This is a huge peace of mind for many dogs and their owners- and my specialty catering to one dog - hence my pricing. Believe me it’s worth every penny! A bit about me- my family and friends have always say “I’m a dog whisperer”! I have always had dogs in my life, but I lost my best friend (yellow lab). She was my soulmate! I am now ready to enjoy and take care of your fur-baby or fur-babies as my own. I give one on one attention to your dog that you will not find anywhere! All the dogs do very well with me, and their owner’s have all said they’ve had a huge relief knowing their fur- babies are in good, loving hands with me! You will absolutely have a peace of mind!! I’m available for house sitting in their comfort of your home or vacation/summer home or boarding here at my home. I also do drop in visits with walks, play and company for your pet. I love going on adventures with trail hikes, beaches and exploring with your pups. I know dogs, and I know their needs. Dogs need social interactions, company and lots of attention just like we do as humans! Your dog(s) will always be my bestie too! I look forward to hearing from you, meeting you and your fur baby! I am home full time (early retired teacher) and have plenty of time to walk, play and cuddle with your pet! I’m available for your needs and your pet needs too! I have a great yard, deck to play and hang out together. I live in a quiet area that has great places for taking walks, hikes, beaches (when dogs are allowed during the year here), and adventures with your fur baby! People tell me it’s like doggie vacation camp when their dogs come stay with me!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I’ve had dogs of my own, including a Black Labrador and a German Shepherd, and I’ve always had cats as well. I’ve also occasionally cared for other people’s dogs, so I understand how important it is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your fur babies like they’re part of my own family! 🐾❤️ I am home full time! I’m available for boarding throughout the week and can provide a loving, attentive environment where your pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I will always be present with the animals during boarding, so your fur babies won’t be left alone without supervision. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll make sure their daily routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs are followed so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring, responsible hands! 🐶🐱❤️ Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I have a separate room available for pets who need their own space, including dogs who require crating or are still working on their training. I want every animal to feel comfortable and secure, so I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs and routines. For well-trained dogs, my home is a welcoming environment where they’ll be treated like part of the family, with plenty of love, attention, and opportunities to relax. I also have a fenced-in grassy area where dogs can safely play and enjoy some outdoor time off-leash. For walks, I live on a long secluded road near the beach, where I can take them to get fresh air, exercise, and enjoy exploring their surroundings on a leash. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m committed to providing a safe, clean, and loving environment tailored to each one. My goal is for your pets to feel right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re being cared for responsibly! 🐾❤️

I’ll make sure your dog is happy, fed, walked, exercised, and loved! ❤️ I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling and am willing and able to fit ample time into my weekly schedule to take care of your dog(s)!

About: With a lifelong passion for dogs, I bring years of dedicated pet care experience to ensure your furry companions thrive. As a proud owner of two happy, healthy rescue dogs, I understand the importance of love, patience, and a safe environment in fostering their well-being. Your pets are not just animals; they're family, and I'm here to provide the care and attention they deserve. I am currently taking some time off from the 9 to 5 grind so I have a great deal of flexibility and willingness to accommodate your schedule!

About: I've had dogs my whole life and volunteer weekly at an adoption center, walking various different breeds and ensuring they get the care they need and the necessary exercise. I am currently a student and look forward to taking care of pets and providing them with the care they need. I have had a passion for taking care of animals ever since I was really little and cannot wait to provide pets with my services! I have had a multitude of pet experiences and will watch for signs from your dog to ensure their best care. In my own home pets are like family and your pets will be treated as such.
“We are grateful and appreciate the care that Sally gave to our cat Sophie while we were away. We returned home to a relaxed kitty. Sophie is an old cat. We've had her for two years, and have never left her for longer than twelve hours. We would recommend Sally to anyone who has to leave their pet overnight. Sally also took the time before we even booked with Rover to determine whether the best care for Sophie would be drop in visits or care in Sally's home. The decision was drop in care. Thank you Sally.”
“Such a wonderful sitter. Great communication, very dependable, and went above and beyond to make sure Brucey was happy and cared for. I couldn’t have asked for better — highly recommend!”
“Nikki is our favorite dog sitter. We were gone for two weeks, she communicated well with any issues that were going on, and paid attention to details about our dogs care. We highly recommend her!!”
About: Active, dog-loving 33-year-old with a flexible remote schedule. I grew up around dogs and can’t imagine life without them. My family has three dogs back home that I helped raise from when they were just weeks old, and I’ve fostered golden retrievers in the past. My job sends me traveling for a week about every three months, so I don’t have a dog of my own right now. Pet sitting lets me spend time with dogs without leaving one behind on those trips, and I really enjoy taking care of other people’s pups. I work remotely, so your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. My schedule is flexible, and I take 20 to 30 minute walk breaks all throughout the day. I’m very active and love walking the Rail Trail and taking beach walks on the Cape, so if your dog likes to get moving, we’ll get along great. Being home also means regular potty breaks and plenty of one-on-one attention. Days are for fetch and adventures, and evenings are for cuddles and belly rubs. If your dog likes the dog park, I’m happy to take them. If they’d rather stay close to home, that works too. I’ll follow whatever routine your pup is used to. I’d love to meet your dog and hear all about them! Pet care fits easily into my day because I work from home. I’m usually at my desk during regular hours, but my schedule is flexible, so I take a 20 to 30 minute walk break every few hours. Your dog would come along on those, and they’d also get regular potty breaks and company the rest of the time instead of hours alone. I’m very active outside of work too. Mornings or evenings are often spent on the Rail Trail or walking the beach on the Cape, and I’d love to bring a dog along if they’re up for it. Evenings are more relaxed, with playtime, fetch, and cuddles on the couch. On weekends I have even more time for longer walks, dog park visits, or whatever your pup enjoys most. My work travel happens about one week every three months, and I plan my bookings around those trips so your dog always has my full attention when they’re with me Whether a pet stays with me or I come to them, my goal is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Before every stay, I ask about feeding times and amounts, medications, walk schedule, sleeping spots, favorite toys, and any quirks or fears, and I follow those instructions closely.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in West Chatham is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Chatham
Robert responded to an urgent, last-minute request for someone to drop in on our three dogs while we attended a wedding, as our original plans for their care unexpectedly fell apart. It was my first time using Rover, and Robert was patient and kind as I navigated the process. He did a fantastic job with the dogs and gave me peace of mind when I needed it most.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Chatham is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 402 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Chatham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 West Chatham. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
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.
