About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I got my first pet at age 4 and have been taking care of cats and dogs ever since. I currently own 3 cats that are keeping me on my toes. I have experience administering medications when took care of my diabetic cat. I'm currently unemployed, so you have my undivided attention. I'm hoping to make pet sitting my next full time gig. I currently have full availability I currently live in a 2 BR apartment in a gated community, with a dedicated dog walking area. I will gladly let your dogs out in your yard, if that's what you're comfortable with or walk your doggo in his/her favorite stomping grounds. I'm totally flexible.
About: I’ve always loved cats and feel very comfortable caring for them. I’m patient, gentle, responsible, and attentive to each cat’s personality and needs. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, loved, well-fed, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to play with them, give them attention, and keep you updated with photos. I only work for about four hours in the evenings on Fridays and Saturdays. The rest of the week, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them lots of attention, care, and company. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules and daily routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, and I’ll keep you updated with photos while you’re away.
“Our pup had the best time! We could have not asked for a better sitter for Cody. Would highly recommend her, as she has a lot of experience with pups and German Shepherds in particular ... and it shows!!! ? Also, she was on time, left us great notes on the App including pictures and followed all instructions perfectly.”
About: I love caring for and protecting all animals; dogs, cats, other mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and/or insects. Essentially if it eats, breaths and needs maintenance, I am able to take care of it. I've had several dogs in my life, from small to large sized dogs. I have also owned a couple exotic pets that required unique needs and diets. I have no issue with cleanup or waste removal that may be needed while caring for any extended family member. Not having any other obligations other than "Rover" (besides my GF) I am able to dedicate my full attention on the services I am providing to care for the loved ones I am entrusted to. I have experience and I am able to train, if requested.
“Megan is wonderful! She cared for our two cats while we were on vacation and did an amazing job. She sent great pictures and updates and helped us by keeping an eye on our mail and plants, too. Highly recommended!”
“Anica is great!! She takes amazing care of my cat when I'm gone and I trust her completely. She was so patient and kind with my skiddish cat and Stella immediately warmed up to her! I cannot recommend Anica enough!”
“Ariana is super communicative and accommodating. Our dog immediately took a liking to her and would highly recommend anyone to use her for drop in visits or dog walking services.”
“We had an excellent experience and couldn’t have been happier with the care our dog received. She was extremely reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the entire time we were away. She kept us updated after every visit with great photos and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She also frequently spent extra time with her beyond the scheduled visit, making sure she had plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. It was very clear that she wasn’t simply checking off a visit—she genuinely cared about her and wanted her to be happy and comfortable. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and everything had gone perfectly. It is a huge relief to find someone you can completely trust with your dog and your home while you’re away. We would absolutely book her again and recommend her without hesitation. Five stars!”
“Cynthia was wonderful! She was friendly, professional, and very communicative throughout my holiday trip. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond by bringing my packages inside for safekeeping. I’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Another great drop-in with Anthony. He's a very understanding and patient person and that really helps with bonding with our anxious dog. He's always on time and doesn't mind taking the time it takes to get to know a dog.”
“Kimberly is amazing as always!! Thank you for going above and beyond and for constantly keeping in touch too. Your care is very appreciated by both myself and my fur baby😊”

This was our second time with Anica checking on our three kitties while we were out of town, and she was great just like the first time. She is communicative, follows instructions, and genuinely cares for our cats. I’m so glad to have found someone local that I’ve been able to rebook and anticipate we’ll continue to request Anica for future times we’re away!
Danielle us the best! Very caring and very thorough with her check ins. She is very caring with my fur baby. She goes above and beyond. She is definitely my go to from here on out. I've used Roverr alot and She has been the best ever!!! Thank you again Danielle. 🥰
We found Christine on Rover and were immediately impressed by her glowing reviews and experience. Since our senior dog can no longer handle the stress of a kennel, we booked Christine for 2 drop-ins a day over a long weekend. She was incredibly professional, arriving for a meet-and-greet to learn our home layout and expectations. Throughout the stay, she was perfectly on time, spent a full 30 minutes playing with our pups during each visit, and ensured they were well-fed. The frequent photo updates were a huge relief for our family. Christine has truly earned our trust and our dogs' hearts—we will definitely be booking her again!
Aubrey is amazing. She took such wonderful care of my senior kitty and took the stress away from being away from her. Sending pics and videos, making sure to address my particular concerns over kitty’s comfort. She also made sure to tidy up any mess my kitty made during the week which was a big help. Thank you for taking such great care of everything during the holiday, Aubrey!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in West Hills on Rover is $22.76 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 15,998 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Hills. 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 West Hills 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 West Hills. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
