About: Hi there! I’m Kristin, a lifelong pet owner and animal lover! Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and there’s nothing I love more than having a furry friend curled up beside me. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home, with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll treat your fur baby like one of my own! My home has a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to safely run, play, and explore. I also love going on walks and am always happy to slow down for those important sniffing adventures! I can also accommodate drop-in visits/walks as well as overnight stays. I know how much you’ll miss your pet, so I’ll send plenty of photos and videos to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Whether your pet loves to play, explore, or simply snuggle on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your furry friend the attention and care they deserve. I’m available for overnight boarding, drop-in visits, walks, and whatever else you may need throughout the week. I can work around your pet’s normal feeding and care routine. My animals are the first thing I think of when I wake up and the last thing I think of before I go to bed. I always make sure that their needs are met and give them lots of love, attention and playtime.
“We are very thankful for Kate’s help! We received many kitty pictures and updates while we were away and the house was spotless when we returned. It was our first time using Rover and are super happy with the whole experience.”
“Highly recommend Emily! She took great care of our fur boy and was very conscious of sending pictures so we could know he felt loved. She took very good care of the house and went above and beyond to extend her day when we needed her highly recommend, five stars!”
“Micaele was very kind, had great communication, and took great care of our dog while we were gone for the week! She met all of our needs / expectations and we would definitely use her again!”
About: I started walking dogs for neighbors as a way to get in extra exercise on the weekends and ended up loving it! Other neighbors saw and soon after inquired for weekend walks! I’ve dog sit for friends and family members whenever they’d go off on vacation or away for work trips. I have experience with dogs with anxiety, blindness, medication administration, and puppies! I’m a tattoo artist searching for a fun, outdoorsy, active side gig to get me out of the house and into fun shenanigans with sweet pups! I treat all pets as if they’re apart of my own family, because they are -woof-! I’ve cared for elderly pets, special needs pets, and puppies and understand that not all pets are the same, some require more time to gain trust while others are more outgoing; some need a 5 minute break to relax mid walk, while others are high energy the entire time through! I’ve experienced it all and look forward to working with you and your pet!
About: I’ve taken care of my neighborhood dogs for the past 5 years and have a keen skill of making the dogs satisfied and the owners happy with the service. I’m currently working part-time so pet care will be my main priority as my live for animals transcends my other responsibilities in my life and schedule Throughout my past experiences, I’ve helped to maintain the safety and security of pets, made meals for them and helped with the yard fencing related to pets.
“I highly recommend Samantha. She was so sweet and reliable and took great care of my dog Lola. I'm very picky about who cares for my furbaby but I had no worries with Samantha. She sent me photo and video updates and had adorable captions for them. You can rest assured when hiring Samantha. I will definitely use her again.”
“THE BEST!! Unity house sat and took care of Rudy, our 13 yr old Chocolate Lab for several days while we were away. Rudy has several special needs and Unity took care of it ALL. Excellent communicator! Would use again, zero hesitation!”
About: Hi! My name is Zaniah (Zuh-Nye-Uh). I work from home in the tech industry, and have a very active lifestyle. I’ve owned animals my entire life and have several years of experience fostering and pet-sitting dogs/cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities (including reactive). I’m comfortable caring for all breeds. I live in an apartment complex on the Chattahoochee River that has plenty of trails, access to the river and a dog park. Though I don’t have pets of my own, I love having the opportunity through pet sitting and fostering. I mostly do this for fun and supplemental income in my free time so I am flexible on cost and cancellation. Your pet will be treated like family while they’re with me! You can trust I will be reliable with communication, sending photos, and creating an stress-free environment. For Example: - 30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup the exercise and stimulation they need. - 30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course many snuggles! - My house sitting service includes staying overnight with your pet so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime and cuddles. Feel free to reach out anytime as I am a quick responder. I currently work from home full-time and I’m available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last-minute bookings. I’m happy to care for pets in my home as long as they’re potty trained. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do to make them the most comfortable! I’ll follow their usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles!
About: I’m very detail-oriented and take pride in keeping things clean, organized, and exactly how you like them. I’m honest, reliable, and always follow through on what I say I’ll do. You can trust me to take great care of your home and stay on top of everything while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available for evening check-ins, and walks during the week. My weekends are fully open, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and make sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. With 22 years of experience, I bring a strong attention to detail and a love for keeping things organized and running smoothly. I’m very routine-oriented, so I make sure your home and your pets stay on their normal schedule. You can feel confident knowing everything will be cared for just the way you like while you’re away.
“My wife and I had the opportunity to take a 3 1/2 week trip out of the country. We weren’t sure what to do with our fur babies because it was too long to put either of them in a kennel. We looked at Rover‘s website and found Jenna who agreed to watch our fur babies in our home for the duration of our trip. Our beagle is a rescue who has a number of special needs due to abuse as a puppy. Jenna did a wonderful job of watching both our beagle and our kitty cat for the time we were gone. It’s obvious Jenna loves animals and we will certainly book her again if we ever need to leave town for an extended period. We highly recommend Jenna as that only a pet sitter, but a house sitter as well.”
“Skylar was AMAZING!!! I have an older grumpy pit and she gave him all the love and cuddles. She also was very respectful of our home and left everything the way she found it. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you again Skylar so much!!”
“Ayanna was amazing! Our zoo of furbabies absolutely love her. She sent pictures of the pups throughout our vacation and we came home to a happy house! Will definitely be calling her for our next vacation!”
About: I have a genuine love for dogs and have always enjoyed caring for them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I understand that every dog is different. Some love long walks and playtime, while others are happiest relaxing, getting belly rubs, and having someone nearby. I take the time to get to know each dog and follow their normal routine as closely as possible. When your dog is in my care, I treat them like part of the family. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise, medications or special instructions, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable. I also believe communication with the owner is extremely important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give your dog the same love, attention, and care I would want someone to give my own dog. 🐶❤️ Im currently semi retired. I actually work less than 10 hours a week. So I can pet sit for your cat & dog 24/7 & holidays. I can also pick them up & drop them off for a $25 dollar travel fee. Great for people who are going to the airport. (Maximum 20 minute drive) I have a fenced in yard with green grass, trees & lots of squirrels🥳 I have a bag of tennis balls & a built in shadow chaser on my deck. My dog Zoey loves it‼️ (Think laser pointer) So your baby will get lots of sunlight & excercise. I also live in a very quiet neighborhood with very little traffic. That’s great for walks. I will be more than happy to supply pics, videos & updates during their stay. It’s a nice reassurance that your fur baby is being spoiled by myself while your away.
“10 Stars! She was so excellent to work with! We were out of the country for 16 days; normally, we have family watch the dogs because Jake is older with cancer and takes a large amount of medicine. That wasn't an option with this trip, so we interviewed several folks and Ro was by far the best - she came over and met the dogs and learned about the house. She was here right after we left, and stayed with the dogs until right before we came home. She took such good care of them and the house. She kept us informed and updated with them throughout the trip and we honestly never worried - she was so great. 100% recommend and we'll be using again!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Erica. She watched our 2 dogs, cat and snake for us while we were in Portugal for two weeks. She provided great communication the entire time we were on our trip. I had zero worries about our pets while we were gone. When we came home, the house was clean and the animals were very happy. It was obvious she took great care of our pets and our home. We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Natalia did a great job house sitting and watching over my pets! She had the patience in managing my hyper and energetic dogs and still had time for my cats! She kept in touch, shared pictures, and kept my house tidy. I would recommend her services!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Westfield is $50

Zachary did a fantastic job keeping our Eevee company. She does not fair well at the kennel, and is most comfortable staying in our home. We were nervous at first with having a stranger at the house, but Zachary quickly put our mind at ease. We will definitely book again.
Katherine was a very attentive sitter with regular communication. We got updates and pictures daily. She always responded to my outreach in a timely manner. She followed instructions well and left the house clean. Everything you could ask for when leaving our precious pups with a sitter!
Madelena was amazing for our pets! She stayed for four days and three nights and not only watched over the dogs but also our home. She also went the extra mile to do multiple meet and greets before we went out of town since one of our dogs has some stranger danger. We will definitely request Madelena again and I highly recommend her due to her professionalism, flexibility, and ability to care for multiple animals and treat them like family. Thank you so much Madelena!
Lorelei stayed at our home for a week and took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were away. She kept us updated, left the house clean, and made sure our pups were happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. We would definitely book with Lorelei again!
Samantha did an amazing job taking care of Ari and Cholula! Since they’re senior dogs, they sometimes need a little extra love and attention, and Samantha was wonderful with them. She kept us updated with multiple messages and photos throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our dogs and would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We would happily hire her again!
Willow was a gift to leave our pups with! She was so reliable, always on time and very communicative! She brought in mail and left our home spotless! She was available at a moments notice and even offered to stay longer depending on our commute back home! We (and our pups) loved having Willow pup sit for us! 🤍🐶

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Westfield is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $106 per night. 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 4,667 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Westfield. 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 Westfield 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 Westfield 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 Westfield 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.
