“Amazing amazing! We are so pleased with Ariana’s care of our 3 cats while we were away for 4 days. She took such wonderful care of them, provided us with lots of adorable pictures & updates every visit. Our kitties loved her, she was very good them in our absence. Excellent communication at all times, she is so friendly & kind! We felt so safe leaving our young cats alone for the first time because of Ariana, I was never worried at all. Ariana is very clean, she was kind enough to put away all the cat food & plates on the last day before we got back. Everything looked perfect & our kitties extremely happy & very well taken care of by Ariana! Thank you so much for everything we look forward to working with you again!! :)”

About: I am an animal lover who is also a mother so I am well trained in patience, kindness, understanding, serving and guiding! I show respect to all living things and I stand up for anyone who might not have their own voice to. I have a lot of availability as I am fully dedicated to this job! I'm open to on-going jobs or just one time help, anything you need. I have a very safe home in West Hills. When I care for pets I make sure all their needs are met including food, water, play, clean body, clean environment and love!
“I can’t say enough great things about Kai!!! This is my first experience using Rover as I did not want to put my boys in a kennel while I was away for a few days. Since my pups are a bit senior I wanted them to be in the comfort of their own home. Kai saw my boys twice a day, was consistent and timely and great at communicating with me how everything was going every time he saw them. I was a little nervous initially with allowing someone in my home while I was out of town, but Kai is completely trustworthy and made sure to lock everything up in between his visits. I HIGHLY recommend Kai for taking care of your pet(s) when you have to be away from them :)”

“Mariia was great and took great care of our two dogs. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive. My dogs loved her. She went above and beyond. I would recommend her and I would book with her again.”
“Kim looked after my cat for a few days and the entire experience was great. Very easy to coordinate with and responsive. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a sitter!”
“We have never left Pete and Molly before and we were a little nervous. Thank goodness for Lila!! She was available last minute, checked in every visit and cared for them like we would. Lila is a very warm, friendly and personable young lady! It’s no wonder dogs love her!! I would recommend her to anyone who loves their animals like we do and wants to give them the best care :)”
About: Since highschool, I've been watching family and friend's homes & pets. I have experience with all shapes and sizes of dogs, cats, fish and even some farm animals. I only ever had my own animals when I was a child so as someone who loves being around them, I am grateful for any experiences I get to do so 😊 I am a digital freelancer so all my work is done on my laptop. This allows me to determine my own schedule and provides flexibility in not only the hours I work but where in the world I put those hours in (around 3-4 hours daily, 4 days a week) I've always taken pride in leaving a housesit with the place looking exactly the same as you left it (if not better) and providing the animals with such a positive experience that when given the opportunity to watch them again, they are ecstatic to see me 😊
About: I have had rescue dogs my whole life, so I have experience dealing with large dogs that have special needs. I also worked in a pet supply store for 2 years, so I have interacted with a wide variety of behaviors and care requirements. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I can make myself available at any time with enough notice, including periods like nights, weekends, and holidays. I will listen to instructions about a pet’s individual needs, and care for them accordingly. I understand the importance of a consistent routine, and will make sure any pets remain as comfortable as possible.
About: I grew up in a home where my parents bred and fostered dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I was hands-on with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and everyday care from a young age, and I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for everything from walks and drop-ins to extended overnight stays lasting three months or more. I know how important it is to have someone you can completely trust with both your pet and your home, and I treat every animal I care for like they’re my own. I’m attentive, affectionate, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including weekdays and weekends. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of one-on-one attention. I’m also available for overnight stays and can accommodate pets who need a little extra company or a more consistent routine. A typical day includes neighborhood walks, plenty of backyard time, playtime, and lots of love and cuddles. I like to follow each pet's usual schedule as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home while they're with me. Whether your pup loves long walks and playing outside or would rather curl up and relax, I'm happy to match their energy and routine.
About: My wife and I have grown up loving dogs and have always had a special connection with animals in general! I grew up with two small dogs, and my wife had two big dogs, we love them more than anything. We honestly can't imagine life without them. Caring for them has given us so much experience understanding the needs, personalities and routines of different dogs. Our experiences as dog owners has taught us the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owners are away! I'm currently self employed, and work from home! I make my own schedule so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priority. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animals! I will always take the time to learn your pets routine, personality and individual needs so that they feel comfortable and secure while you're away.
About: I’m twenty years old and have been taking care of my cat ever since I was ten. When my sister who is ten years older than me moved out she got two dogs and a cat, who I would care for regularly while she went out. The past two years I have been nannying for a family with two kids and four dogs, I would sometimes care for the dogs, walk them and feed them multiple times a day if the family needed to leave somewhere. I recently moved away from the area that was close to them so I am now looking for a new source of income as it is pretty difficult to find families to nanny for. If you would like to talk to her I can provide her phone number. I love animals so much and if you let me take care of them I will always make sure they don’t just eat and go on walks, but also are played with and entertained. :) I currently don’t have a job since we just moved so I am free every day except Sunday where I run all my errands and meal prep. I will update my info if I find a part time job. I have a cat at home and live with my mother, she would never allow another animal in the home sadly, but in your home I can stay with your animals and feed them, walk them, scoop litter, and of course keep them running around and playing.

Pets are a gift to us, each one!
About: I’m a reliable, attentive, and caring dog walker and sitter who treats every pet like my own. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure dogs feel comfortable, happy, and well-exercised. I’m great with different temperaments, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly with owners. Whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay, I make sure pets are well cared for and owners feel fully at ease. I work in the restaurant business waiting tables at night. So I’m free during the day whenever someone needs me to walk their dog or come over to let them out. Always on time. Or even a little bit early. Very patient willing to walk dogs and let them out when needed. Non aggressive with the pets
About: I have fostered cats since 2020 and have volunteered at my local animal shelters since 2018. I am familiar working with cats and kittens of all ages and needs (bottle feeding - seniors) and can confidently give medicine and clean pets with extra needs. I have worked with small dogs throughout this time (helping stimulate/play and clean them up) and have taken care of young puppies <1 year overnight with around the clock care. I am completely free on weekends from 4am-10pm and am flexible with my hours especially if overnight care is needed. I work full time on weekdays and have a flexible schedule which allows me to work remotely from 7am-4pm. I am free for visits and caregiving 4am-6am and 4pm-10pm on weekdays. I am comfortable and willing to respect your animal’s boundaries where needed, and I will do whatever I can to ensure your pet is safe. I understand some pets are shy and some are more social, and am comfortable working with all types of personalities to cater to their needs as necessary. I can supervise eating/bathroom use as necessary and provide extra stimulation and play time whenever needed.
“Wonderfully attentive and careful with my cats! Even volunteered to check on them on an unplanned visit when it looked like one of the girls wasn't eating. Would definitely recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Hills
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!
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. 🥰
I was very hesitant about leaving my cats behind during our cross-country family move, but taking them with us would have added even more stress to an already complicated situation. After signing up on Rover, I chose Sabrina because she was conveniently located nearby, had excellent reviews as a star sitter, and offered very reasonable rates. She responded to my messages quickly and was always happy to answer my questions. The week flew by, and thanks to Sabrina, I never had to worry about my kitties. She visited them twice a day, played with them, made sure they had fresh food and water, and gave them their medicine. She even earned the trust of my younger female cat, who is usually very skittish and easily frightened. I highly recommend Sabrina! She clearly loves animals, has a wonderful personality, and is someone you can truly rely on.
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!!!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Hills is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 15,947 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Hills. 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 .
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 , 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:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
