“Nikki was amazing! Normally I am super anxious when leaving our 4 elderly cats, but Nikki took such great care of them and our house while I was on my honeymoon. She made sure our one cat got his medication twice a day and gave them all tons of pets and attention when she was here. I appreciate her so much!”

“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’m a nature boy at heart, I love the outdoors and all sorts of adventures. From simple sidewalk trips around the block. To open field exploration that knows no bounds. When I am taking a pup for a walk it will always be a fun time. I’m available most days within minutes. Any question or concern regarding your pets care under my supervision can be answered. I’m very flexible with my schedule so I feel confident I’m a good fit for most good boys and girls out there who need a new buddy from time to time. Any rules and procedures that you lay out will be followed. Once I get comfortable with your pet I’ll treat them just like my own and provide anything I can to make sure they receive the best care while waiting for you to come home.

About: Hi! My name is Jada and I love caring for animals! Over 20 years experience, I’ve taken care of many family and friend’s little loved ones while they’re away. I’m experienced with giving medication, health conditions, specific diets and needs. I know the stress and worry you may feel when it comes to needing an extra set of hands to care for your animals, and finding the right fit! I would love to ease your mind and dedicate my time and effort to meet your pets’ needs! I look forward to helping you! Any questions please message me, thank you! I work varying hours during the week/weekends, so I work around those hours on here 🙂 I will update my schedule as often as I can for availability! I have an 11 year old dachshund mix named Boat. He was diagnosed with a heart condition a few years ago and has since required a special diet and activity limitations. I have a fenced in yard he goes out in and do 1-3 daily walks depending on his activity level and temperature outside. DOGS and CATS! I’m able to walk, play, pet, pet sit, feed, check in on, give medication, clean and replace potty pads or litter boxes, brush, bathe- whatever works best for you and your pets needs!

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

Her communication was extremely thorough and prompt. She took the BEST care of our boys, and we felt so comforted knowing she was watching them. We cannot recommend her enough!!”

About: While my experience is not professional, I have been a pet owner for many years and have always had dogs as part of my family. Caring for pets has been a natural part of my life, not just a job. I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone’s furry family member, because I treat my own pets with love, patience, and respect. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving dogs the comfort and affection they need to feel safe. My goal is to care for each dog as if they were my own, providing a calm, loving, and home-like environment so pet parents can feel at ease while they’re away. I'm a mom and I'm at home all day, I have a lot of time available and at home we all love animals, they are like one more part of the family I can take care of pets at my home, I have a lot of space, time and love I have a park to walk very close and a very large patio

Kelly is a true gem! We were a bit nervous about leaving our cat at home while we traveled but we found Kelly on Rover, asked her to stop by for an introductory visit and were convinced she would be a perfect fit. She kept us posted about her daily visits and took some great pictures of our cat 'in action'. We highly recommend Kelly if you are seeking a caring and capable pet sitter!

Without a doubt the best sitter we have ever had. When your skittish kitty cannot get enough rubs from day 1 it is clear that your sitter is an animal lover. Bethany's daily pictures spoke louder than words showing our 2 kitty's enjoying Bethany's rubs with her lying on the floor next to them. Our kitties are older with gastric issues and accompanied vomits, but Bethany assured we come home to a spotless home. We highly recommend Bethany to take care of your animal friend/s The only issue we foresee is that your pet/s might be sad when you return home and Bethany leaves.

Stephanie is punctual, caring, attentive and respectful of our home. She followed our care instructions. We received great photos and report after each visit. She has a calm and reassuring demeanor that our shy cat began to open up to her by the end of our vacation. It is not easy to welcome a stranger into our home but Stephanie exceeded our expectations.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Westchase

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westchase is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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 7,416 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westchase. 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 Westchase. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
