“Deborah did a wonderful job watching my dogs, Pip & Oliver. I contacted her at the last minute and she responded quickly. I am so grateful to Deborah for her professionalism and obvious love of animals. Would enthusiastically recommend!”
“Pewter was relaxed and perky when I got home, and the photos and messages I recieved while I was away made it clear that Kristine was spending time with Pewter and making sure she had some fun. Overall Kristine has been thoughtful and caring towards both Pewter's happiness and my own. 100/10 would recommend.”
“Miranda was an amazing cat sitter! 11/10 would recommend. While we were gone, she was able to divide and administer heart failure medication for one of our cats, cleaned up hairballs, made sure they had food & water, and kept their litter boxes clean. She was very communicative and we loved her photo updates and her drop in descriptions.”
About: Hi! My name is Alexa and I currently live in Revere, Massachusetts. I currently work full time M-F but would love to help out on week nights and weekends! I have grown up with dogs throughout my childhood and always wanted to spend even more of my time with other peoples pups. I currently have the sweetest 8 year old beagle bulldog mix named Ella. I have experience in walking dogs and staying at owner's homes while they are away to care for their dogs, as well as taking care of my own, of course. I am patient and loving towards dogs and love to cuddle and play with them as much as they like! Your baby is in good hands :) I work full time M-F so my availability is after 6 on weeknights and all day on weekends. I am happy to care for your dog while you are away or just need a one time visit! I prefer to care for your pet in your home to make sure they are the most comfortable. I live in a small apartment with a dog if my own so your home would be best.
“Amy is amazing! She is detail oriented, conscientious, caring and so genuine. We have four pets w medications and different foods and she manages it all w ease. Our pets love her and why wouldn’t they?! She’s so good to them!!”
“Heidii is the best! Heidii is reliable and trustworthy. My pets love her. I’m so appreciative of her attentiveness and kindness. She allows me to shed my guilt of being away from home. I highly recommend Heidii!!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Elizabeth eased a lot of my initial nerves and was a wonderful sitter for my cat! Everything went really smoothly, and she sent me photos and videos when she came to visit. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, and I felt better knowing my cat was gonna be cared for by a trustworthy person. I had a really nice experience with Elizabeth and will most definitely want to work with her again! Thank you for your help!! 💕”
“Susan is AMAZING! Our kids are never happy leaving our boy with a non family sitter, but when I told them Susan would be back they got very excited. They knew he would be well cared for and snuggled as much as if they were home. If we could, we would give her 100 stars!”
About: I’ve had pets for nearly my whole life! I grew up with the best golden retriever anyone could ask for and now I have two cats that I would do literally anything for. I frequently take care of pets of my friends and family and absolutely love being around pets. I am currently on Christmas break and work in a restaurant a few days a week so I have a very flexible schedule. I can do same day walks/check-ins to accommodate your needs! Keeping your dog active and stimulated is the best way to keep them happy. I clean up any messes they made and will ensure that they get all the love and care in the world!
“Natalie was wonderful! My cats were healthy and happy when I returned and my apartment looked great as well. She was very easy to communicate with, replied promptly, and provided detailed updates. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for about 2 years now. I have 3 dogs myself, 2 being puppies. So pets are always in my life. I’ve been walking and dog sitting for around 2 years for friends and family’s. I’m currently in college so Christmas break and summer I’m only part-time so I have a lot of extra time to get some walking in! I have a fenced in yard and a puppy to get some play time in with. I live in a neighbors so a lot of safe roads to walk through!
About: I’ve grown up caring for both a dog and a cat, so I’m very comfortable with pets of different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In addition to my own pets, I regularly dog sat a corgi named Allen for two years, giving me hands-on experience with consistent routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention and care. What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with animals! I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also great with maintaining structure, whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules or making sure energetic dogs get the exercise they need. I currently work part-time, but I have flexible availability during the week and weekends. I am unavailable on Friday nights, but I’m happy to help with mornings, afternoons, and other evenings. I’ll always communicate clearly and make sure your pet’s care fits reliably into my schedule. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free, and I’m always attentive to their needs. I make sure doors and leashes are secure, provide plenty of care and supervision, and communicate with you so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I love all dogs and am happy to adapt to the needs of each dog individually. I grew up with dogs and now have my own who I raised and trained from when he was a puppy! I currently don’t work full time so I’m able to meet flexible needs! Can’t get enough of dogs and hoping to help out when folks need! I’m easy going and very communicative so I’m excited to meet the needs of you and your dog whatever they may be in your home or neighborhood.
“Emma has been an absolute lifesaver and is the perfect sitter for our new puppy, Hubble. Emma went out of her way to make herself available in the middle of the day during our first week back at work and it has made all the difference. She is communicative, punctual, and extremely kind. I have nothing but nice things to say about Emma. I know Hubble absolutely loves his new friend!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family’s furry friends for the last 15 years. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets often. Until recently, I had my own senior dog and had taken care of puppies, adults, seniors, and even dogs with disabilities. I currently work part time and am able to fit in walks or drop in visits around my regular daily schedule. I usually only know my schedule two weeks in advance. I am not able to take care of your pets in my home but am happy and able to keep them comfortable in their own space!
“Kaitlin did a fabulous job with our two dogs. Her updates with photos were wonderful. She was reliable and professional. I highly recommend Kaitlyn and will certainly rebook in the future.”
“We’re new to the area so we don’t know anybody who could watch our spoiled felines while we were away. Verca took the time to come introduce herself, meet the cats, and chat. We were nervous, especially since one of our cats has anxiety but, even he warmed up to her by the second day! We’ve booked her for our longer trip later this month too!”
About: My experience includes working with horses, donkeys, sheep, chickens, fish, reptiles, birds and more. I have my own dog Paul, and I've owned dogs and cats in the past as well. My most recent certification is in wildife rehabilitation, and I work part-time as an educator at an aquarium. I surround myself with animals and I hope to do so for the rest of my life. I work on Sundays and Mondays, volunteer on Thursdays, and may be called in on other days. I am responsible for my own animals at home as well. As long as I have time to plan for animal care for others, I will make that care a priority. Clearly written instructions on specific care for your animals is appreciated, but I can use my knowledge and experience to make the right calls if anything comes up.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Westerly on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 962 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westerly. 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 Westerly 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
