“Taylor did such a great job. It was our first time using Rover and first time having someone do a drop in for our sweet little Murphy. Taylor had great reviews so we booked her, then did a video chat to show her around. She gave us updates and photos and we came home to a very happy puppy. It was so nice to know Murphy didn’t have to go all evening without a walk and potty break. ❤️ I would 100% hire Taylor again!”
About: As long as I can remember I have had a love for animals and especially dogs! I grew up always having a dog by my side. I have had my personal pet for a year now, and she has made it the best year of my life. She has been taught basic skills and some tricks. Soon she will be starting agility, tracking, scentwork, and possibly rally obedience. Seeing as she is a Labrador, I’ve had plenty of experience administering ear medication. I am also qualified to give oral medication. I will be getting First Aid Certified very soon. Rarely does a day go by where my dog doesn’t get the exercise she needs both physically and mentally. Whenever I watch someone else’s little loves, I treat them as if they are mine. I want the owner to have a safe and enjoyable time away from his/her pet without having to worry at all. Our pets are not with us nearly long enough, so I strive to give them the best lives while they are walking beside us! I currently work part-time with the weekends off. Along with that, I have college, but a lot of it is online. I’m never busy for more than 5 hours, so if need be during the week, I will be able to take the dog(s) out at least once every 5 hours. During the weekend, it is at least once every 2-4 hours. I am done with everything by 5 PM during the week. When it comes to schedules I am very flexible. At the time I cannot provide home services, but I can take your dog on a walk! When the weather is nice, I take my dog to the dog park, San Lee, or a nearby ball park for physical exercise. I would love to do so with your dog(s) if you feel comfortable enough to let me do so! If you would like your dog to have a play date, my Labrador, Jetta, is always down for a good time!
“Natasha took such good care of my babies while we were away! She loved them like they were her own, detailed, on time, and made sure they had plenty of play time. Thank you, Natasha! Peace of mind while away from your pet family is priceless!”
“Tiffany, Tom, and the extremely helpful Eliza were an absolute dream team. I came home to happy, well fed, content cats. They were in contact every day, played with them, and overall took exceptional care of everything. It gave me enormous leave of mind to know they were in such good hands. They’ve got a new fan club with us!!”
“Amber was wonderful! My timid cats got used to her and seemed so happy and relaxed in the photos and videos she sent me. I feel that Amber gave them a great deal of care and attention. I highly recommend her and would book her again!”
“Kalah did a stellar job with Piper so can be dog aggressive at times. This was our first time with anyone helping us out. She made it such a breeze. Even helped with her special diet. The pictures were so reassuring. Will be calling on her again!!”

I strive to keep routines consistent to minimize stress for your pets. This includes help with tasks like taking in the mail, and watering plants.

She gave them the companionship they needed most, & with her patience and persistence with them, they warmed up to her quickly! She took time to get them to play, their favorite thing. She kept usbup to date so se had great time without worrying about them. We will definitely be calling on Haydyn again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Western Hills
Cassie was taking care of my 5-month old kitten when I was away for the weekend. She sent me plenty of photos to keep me updated as well as descriptions how he is doing, playing and eating. He was happy and well cared for. Will be booking again in the future!
Natasha is a very special person. She was able to handle my anxious dog better than anyone else who has taken care of him. She showed up when she said she would, asked great questions-Even those I had not thought of and was great with our pups-they love her. I also appreciated all the pictures. Highly recommended!!
Kali has come twice now in the last month. I am incredibly grateful we have finally found a sitter like her again! Kali is kind, punctual (we have a diabetic cat that needs to be cared for in specific time increments), communicative, and we can tell our cats and home have been taken care of when we get home. She has even managed to get our shy cat to come out while she is there. I am relieved to know we have finally found someone we can trust!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Western Hills is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 November 2026, there are 1,789 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Western 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 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 Western Hills. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
