“This is the third time that Jared has taken care of my cat while we were away. Once again, excellent care and service. Reliable and attentive. He did everything I asked. I will be booking Karina and Jared again later this summer!”
About: I believe in treating animals humanely and as we would want to be treated. Dogs get the same affect from exercising outdoors as humans do, maybe even more. So why not give them what is good for them? I know you love your pets as a family member and would do anything to keep them healthy and happy however, I understand life just gets in the way sometimes. Allow me to be there to take care of them and give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s taking your pup on a wellness walk in the outdoors, playing laser tag with Mr. Meowgi, or keeping your house pets company by staying the night, no request is too big or small to keep your floofs happy. I am just as flexible with taking care of any animal (take a peek at some of my pics) as I am with what I charge. Please do not hesitate to reach out. And always remember, A happy pooch is a happy parent! I am patient, understanding and love all animals. I work full time as a waitress in the evenings and attend online college during the day. I have availability most days and can be flexible (: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I currently live with 2 dogs and a parakeet. I have cared for pets with anxiety, senior animals, farm animals and baby animals.
About: I have taken care of and had pets my whole life. I’ve had small animals to large. I have 14 pets of my own at the moment from hermit crabs, a bird, bearded dragon, guinea pigs, cats and 3 dogs. I love animals. I currently own my own business so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your fur baby, so timing of day will never be an issue! I will watch your pets at all time so they don’t get into mischief. I as a pet owner know they can try to run off or eat something they can’t so constant supervision is a must.
“Anna is absolutely amazing! I was so nervous to hire a “stranger” last minute for my trip but Anna made everything soooo stress free!!! She took perfect care of my pup, sent daily updates & was easily accessible via message! Anna is the best of the best!! ♥️♥️ so happy she is no longer a stranger !”
About: Hello, I've trained several dogs from puppies in basic skills and know the best way to connect with most dogs is through play. I have experience with some medical care for temporary conditions and dogs with anxious dispositions. I'm a big guy so I'm not intimidated by larger dogs and will get down on the floor so smaller dogs aren't nervous. I currently work fully remote from home and have a generally flexible schedule to allow breaks for walks or visits. I'm generally up by 6:30 am each day, but have no issues getting up earlier depending on your pet's schedule. From my house I typically walk the neighborhoods near Greenacre or head over to Bliss park. I can also make late stops up to ~ 11 pm as I know sometimes that overnight without a break can be too much for your pet. I have a large double yard with the majority being fenced/blocked but there are several open areas near the driveway and side of the house. There is a two-story house with wood floors. Depending on your pet's preferences and schedule I would keep them with me in my room. I have a 40 lb mixed rescue dog who is very sweet and timid. Depending on preference we would keep them completely separate but she will likely check them out and then hide under a bed most of the time anyway ;) She has never shown any aggression or had any issues with other dogs.
“Great Dog Sitter. I had to hire her to do drop-ins, after an emergency came, and when I was called to go out of town for a few days. The dog loved her. I’d 100% recommend her for anyone looking for a dog watching services. I’ll choose her again next time I need to go out of town.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life starting from a very young age. As a small child my family fostered dogs and I was taught basic animal husbandry skills from an early age. Growing up we always also had 3 dogs of our own that I was dedicated to caring for. As I grew older my love for animals of all shapes and sizes also grew, guiding me to my career in animal science and veterinary medicine. I have been working in veterinary medicine for 6 years now. I am currently working on obtaining my Veterinary Technician license (CVT). Through my hands-on experience at my job, I have gained many skills. I am proficient and confident in administration of medications, administration of subcutaneous injections, ear cleanings, pedicures, anal gland expressions and more. I also have experience caring for small animals such as rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs. Lastly, I have my own flock of chickens and would be happy to care for yours if needed as well! I’m currently working part-time, so I have time in my schedule to play and care for your beloved pets as well. My schedule varies weekly so I would be happy to discuss your needs to see if we would be a good fit for each other! Unfortunately at this time I cannot house any clients pets in my own home, but I am happy to care for your pet in the safety and comfort of your home while you are away. I have various petsitting and housesitting references if needed. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my number one priority.
“This was our first time using Rover as our usual sitter wasn’t available and Sierra was wonderful! She sent updates and pictures with each visit and our two cats were very content when we came back home. Our shy cat even came out to see her. We’d recommend her to any other cat owners!”
About: I have had animals my entire life, both cats and dogs. Am well versed in different training languages as well as training styles (Mine listen to English and German). I can provide round the clock care as I work from home and am a student from home as well. I can also provide care to special needs/ diabetic animals as I have had both in the past. As well as provide separation between animals if so requested my home if set up to allow them to come and go as they please or be sectioned to different areas. With that I have 2 loving animals one who is a great pyreneese (Daisy mae) and the other whom is a very loving Siamese kitten (snowball) both who are very excited to introduce new friends into their daily routine! I am currently working and going to school from home. Short of grocery store trips and gas rations runs I am available 24/7 for the animals care/ needs I will always provide the utmost respect and care for your home and animals as if they were mine, I am a cna/haha as well and have much experience working in and out of people’s homes. I understand that your animals are your loved ones and your babies just as mine are and will treat them and your belongings as so.
“Jessica has taken care of our cat on two separate occasions now. She always sends a thorough update with pictures each time she drops in. Jessica gives us great peace of mind while we are away that our cat will be well cared for!”
“Lydia is the best!! She goes above and beyond to make my kitties and I are happy! Excellent communication, warmth, dedication, and professionalism! I truly wish she wasn't moving away, but I understand that she is going to make a huge difference in many human and nonhuman lives as she pursues higher education! I cannot recommend Lydia enough!”
About: I provide a loving + safe home environment where there is opportunity to run free in our fenced in yard! Which is connected to our back door. I have two dogs who thrive here at our home with my three children who I homeschool - 14, 12 & 4 years old. I have experience with puppies. Keeping them active is my goal! One owner passed along current puppy class rules that we continued to practice in our care during her 2 week stay. I have experience with elderly dogs and reading their energy comes naturally. We would go for a swim at a park and then lounge in the grass to relax. Not over doing it but allowing them to communicate their needs is important to me. When your dog stays with us count on her being apart of our family. * I do not currently care for male dogs. Dogs that stay here weave into our lives organically. I homeschool & have other passions that I work on at home. We also have chickens + ducks and grow our own food. We are homebodies. I have a fenced in yard connected to my back door & two of my own doggos to keep yours company. They are free to go in & out as much as they would like.
“Amanda was great! She was consistent and made sure my cats had everything they needed. Including taking care of cleaning the cat bowls and picking up after one of them got sick. She gave good updates. Would use again and recommend to others.”

Nicole has watched my dog multiple times now, including for an entire week recently, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She always goes above and beyond, stopping in consistently and making sure he’s well taken care of, comfortable, and happy. It gives me a huge peace of mind knowing he’s with someone so reliable, caring, and trustworthy whenever I’m away. We’ve had nothing but great experiences every time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Westfield is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $22 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 1,790 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westfield. 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.
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!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
