“Laney was awesome! I would definitely hire her again. My 12 year old dog is quite shy with new people. Laney was patient, communicated great, and sent me daily updates on how Stella was doing. She also kept my house clean and tidy while staying at my house.”
“I appreciated Chasydi taking the time to visit my dog several times while we were away. We have an anxious puppy, and Chasydi was careful not to push her too much, but to let her get familiar with her. We also appreciated Chasydi keeping the house neat during her stay and during her in-and-out visits. She shared photos and reassured us that Ember was okay.”
About: I have had dogs since I was eight years old! When it comes to family and friends, I have had the opportunity to dog sit and care for their pets whenever they need! I have owned small dogs and big dogs and love to connect with all kinds of animals! I’m currently working a part-time job! I am available after 2:30pm everyday or earlier! I am also available on the weekends for the majority of the day! I have a fenced in backyard along with 2 large breed dogs who live with me! I live less than 10 minutes from a park that allows all breeds of dogs where I love to walk my own large breed dogs!
About: Animals have always been a part of my life! I grew up with rabbits, had my first dog at 15 who was a part of my family for 14 amazing years, and have had a cat of my own for the past 6 years. Being around animals has always brought me so much joy, and pet sitting is something I genuinely love doing. I love getting outside for walks, playing at the dog park, enjoying some fresh air, and, of course, giving plenty of belly rubs, snuggles, and attention! Whether your pet is an energetic adventurer or a professional cuddle, I want them to feel safe, happy, loved, and right at home while you're away. I know pets are family, and I would treat yours with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pets with lots of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day! I'm available 7 days a week and can accommodate a variety of schedules, including overnight stays. I prefer caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stick to their familiar routines and feel safe in their own environment while you're away. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, house sitting, or overnight care, I'm happy to work with you to find the best fit for your pets' needs. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family members! Your pets' safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care and plenty of companionship. This is also really ideal for puppies and older dogs that need more hands-on assistance. I prefer keeping pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and can maintain their familiar routines while you're away. Whether we're enjoying walks, spending time outside, playing, or relaxing with some well-deserved belly rubs and snuggles, I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and cared for. I'll respect your home, follow your instructions, and do my best to keep your pets happy and comfortable. You can enjoy your time away knowing your fur babies are being treated like family, right in the place they call home.
“Mia was a lifesaver. I didn't know what I was gonna do because I had to work.She replied immediately. Other's did to but they were busy. She was on time.She communicated with me throughout the day without me asking her to.Mia went above and beyond for Stella. She sent me texts letting me knows how things were going. Couldn't have been happier!”
About: I have helped many of my family members and friends, with safe, reliable, trustworthy pet sitting. My clients today appreciate how reliable I am, with taking care of their animals. My schedule is open, and I am accepting overnights. I have availability Monday through Sunday. I am open to most any schedule. I am open to morning, and evening play dates. I care for pets in their own homes. I would go to your home for any care, as well as walking, and play dates. I am open to traveling with the family, if needed.
“Jennifer took such great care of our pups and our home over the holidays. Her regular updates and photos gave us peace of mind that our pups were in great hands while we’re away. Our home was in better condition when we got back than when we left it. Will be using JR regularly!”
About: I've had animals in my house for over 20 years. Spanninng a cockatiel, a cat, five dogs and my clown fish who are going on 18 years old. Once, I drove the bird into the Tuft's vet school in a blizzard on a weekend night. Another time I took one of the clown fish into the Tufts satellite clinic on a Sunday because he hadn't eaten for days. Both pets lived to tell their tale. Cats are great, I love how they set the rules :) But dogs are where my heart is, especially Airedales, and rescue dogs are a labor of love! My priorities start with my pet family, unless I'm taking care of yours. Then, your pets become my priority. I work from home most of the time and that allows me to have the ultimate flexibility in my schedule so that I can care for your pets as appropriate, on their time. I've raised my dog training game significantly over the past few years, attending regular sessions with my trusted trainer, Baptiste. Our work has focused on highly reactive dogs and also puppy training. Like kids, pets can do no wrong. I do not get upset with them, I just clean the mess ;)
“Aja was absolutely amazing and by far and away the best dog sitter we have ever had. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and attention to instructions is something we should all strive for in our respective fields. My wife and I had absolutely zero concerns about the well-being of our doggos with Aja, which made for that much more enjoyable of a trip for us knowing they were in the absolute best hands. 10/10 WILL book again.”

I will take them for walks if they are boarded and make sure that they follow any specific care instructions. If you would like me to stay at your place then I can follow any routines that you have in place. I am also available to stay overnight if you prefer supervision full-time.
About: I have lots of experience with walking, exercising, play dates, overnight pet sitting, washing, brushing, feeding, and giving them medicine. No problems with large dog breeds or with lifting elderly pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available weekdays as well as weekends for walking, over nights stays, washing, playtime, feeding, etc. I will always ensure to arrive in a timely manner and show your pet the upmost love and care.

“Kelsey was a delightful house sitter for my cats and dog. They seemed to delight in each other. She was very communicative and respectful of my home and asked questions when necessary. She had a handful with my crew and handled it all very well. Would recommend and use her again.”
About: This is like a dream come true, my love for dogs and animals in general started with my first dog named Prince! He was so loveable. He’d come up to you and hug like a human!

About: Big dogs at the Dawg House! I moved to NC in July and have lived all around the country, hauling my two pups along with me. A German shepherd and a Great Dane, they make for great friends for our guests, playing, chasing and living it up. My home has a fenced yard and the neighborhood is perfect for walks. Typically I’m up before 7 to get the dogs a walk before it’s too hot. A quick walk/playtime around lunch does the trick to hold the energy over till it cools off. A long walk at dusk usually wears out my pup, but we can work together to get yours all it needs too! I have a fenced in yard and am located right near a trailhead. I have a home to myself, plenty of space to care for both your dog and mine. I have a guest bath that works great for dirty paws and tails too! With my two pups I’m constantly taking time to get them outside, but once we’ve got our heart rates up it’s usually a puzzle or game indoors that settles mine down. I’ve got eyes and ears like a hawk, active mostly during the day I don’t typically leave the dogs alone. If I need to I have a GIANT crate I typically use for my Great Dane that will be a perfectly safe place for your puppy.
“Paris was very responsive to my questions, comments, and requests. I appreciated the care she gave my dogs. They are pretty independent but having someone there to keep them company and watch the house while I am gone gives me peace of mind while I am traveling.”
“Charisma was an amazing sitter. She sent photos and videos and kept me up to date. She was very attuned to the dogs’ needs and left my home better than she found it. I will definitely be using her again.”
“They are absolutely phenomenal! Very responsive to messages and coordination of the meet and greet to start. Wonderful in the meet and greet with the dogs(3). We knew leaving them for the weekend would be just fine. We received so many photos of them playing and enjoying the dog vacation. Arriving back to our house it was clean and tidy. The same way we had left it. I’d recommend Rey and Jonathan to everyone.”

William is absolutely amazing! We have 3 very high energy dogs with a very strict routine. William followed their routine without flaw and was more than just “watching them”. He sent photos upon arrival, throughout the stay, and before leaving. His communication was timely and clear. We will be booking with William again because he is someone we know we can trust with our pups and they enjoyed him. Even our very picky cat took to William right away!
Madelyn did a fantastic job taking care of our dog Rex! We are so thankful that she was willing to watch him over a major holiday while we were out of town. When we came home Rex was happy, relaxed and had clearly had a great time with plenty of attention. I would absolutely hire Madelyn again the next time we are out of town and highly recommend her as a sitter, especially if your dog is less stressed being in their own home.

The average cost of House Sitting in Western Hills is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $69 per night.

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 903 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Western Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Western Hills walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Western Hills maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Western Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
