“Jennifer was wonderful! She has such amazing experience working with cats. My cat, Luna, had gotten a cut on her paw and I had to rush her to the vet before I left for vacation. Jennifer made sure to pay special attention to Luna to make sure she wasn’t limping or hurt. My cats were a little shy around her at first but they warmed up to her. I’ll absolutely hire Jennifer again!”
About: I am a dog lover looking to give you exceptional service! I have a 75lbs pit bull mix who is the love of my life. I love all dogs and would love to care for yours! I work as a server so my hours are short and very flexible. I’m good for drop ins and overnights as your pet will not be alone for long. I’m usually always with my pet. From morning walks, to breakfast, to midday cuddles, to afternoon walks, to dinner time, to late night cuddles. I’m typically against crating unless I am not able to supervise. I love just having the dog around and playing with them

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westchase
We had a great experience with Jennifer!! Communication was excellent and she shared daily updates and photos of our cat while we were out of town. She made sure he got plenty of attention during each visit, and not just the basics. We’d highly recommend her to anyone needing reliable pet care.
I needed a last-minute reservation, and Emily was incredibly accommodating. What impressed me most was the genuine concern she showed for Lucy, especially while caring for her in the rain. It’s clear that Emily truly cares about the pets she looks after. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter.
Kelly is the 4th cat sitter I’ve had and she will be my last. My cat thrived under her care and I didn’t spend my vacation worrying about my cat’s care. My cat has had trouble bonding with other sitters but not Kelly. She is wonderful with cats and their owners alike.
Sherri did a wonderful job caring for our pets! She was such a lifesaver being able to help out at just a short notice. First time meeting her and I felt like our animals would be in good hands and they were! I recommend Sherri if you want a reliable and caring person to watch over your pets, 100%! :)
Trinity was an excellent pet sitter! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and took the time to meet with me beforehand for a meet-and-greet, which made me feel very comfortable leaving my pets in her care. I would absolutely recommend Trinity to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
Donna was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while caring for our sweet kitty, Mimi. Not only did she shower her with love and attention, but she was also incredibly flexible and accommodating while we were dealing with a construction crew working in our home. Donna handled everything with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. Her daily notes and photos were wonderful and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every update that Mimi was happy, comfortable, and truly loved. We had complete confidence knowing our kitty was in such caring hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family. Thank you, Donna, for taking such incredible care of Mimi!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Westchase on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,361 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westchase. 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 Westchase 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 Westchase. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
