Alexandra has been wonderful with my dogs! She takes the time to make sure they are happy, gets plenty of exercise, fed on time, and was also kind enough to come meet the dogs before hand! She’s always on time, super reliable, and communicates really well with updates and photos after every walk/visit. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs were in caring and trustworthy hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a walker who treats your dog like their own.

About: I have been taking care and pet sitting all kinds of pets and animals since I was 16 years old. I have worked in dog daycares and boarding facilities for around 3 years. I have been trained in dog behavior, temperament, and care. I have a lot of experience with providing dogs and other pets with the proper care they deserve. I love all kinds of animals and want to provide the best care for your pets. I am currently not working so I have lots of available time to provide visits and care for your pets. I am more available during the daytime but can do evening visits as well. I cannot provide care in my own home but I am very open and willing to provide care in my clients home. I love and care about routines so any routine your pet needs to follow I will be able to provide that in my clients home.

I cannot recommend Diana enough! She took such incredible care of our pup, Moose, while we were away. We received regular updates & adorable photos! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly dedicated, Diana is everything you’d hope for in a sitter. We’re beyond grateful and will 100% be booking again!

About: Experienced caretaker (7+ years) for several dog breeds of all sizes. Worked for friends, family, and clients based on referrals. Meticulously attentive with feeding schedules, walk/play time, and medication management if need be. I cater my care to your dog’s normal lifestyle! I have more availability during the weekdays than most others normally would. My job only requires me to be at a location for a couple of hours at a time. Otherwise I am working remotely and therefore can give your dog company during the day. On rare occasions I do report to an office for a longer period of time. *If comfortable I could likely bring your pet with me during those times. Will provide your dog with the utmost love and care while respecting the boundaries and privacy of your home. Extremely communicative, providing photo and video updates whenever needed.

During the week days, I can drop in, walk, or house sit after I finish work. I live in a secure apartment building in Beacon Hill. I am able to ensure the safety and care of your pet and will follow any specific instructions you have.

Emily is amazing! She met my dog the day before his walk/feeding to help get acquainted with him and I showed her where all of his things are. Which I really appreciated. She texted me updates and confirmed details about the visit. She was so sweet and empathetic towards Mylo. I am thankful for her availability since my schedule is so busy. Overall 10/10. We are thankful to have her as our new dog walker :)

This is the second time Emily has petsit for my 2 cats. As always she was amazing. My first experience was back in February when I had to go on an extended work trip for 10 days. Emily was amazing and my 2 cats warmed right up to her. She took such great care of them. She went above and beyond even making it to take care of them during the blizzard. I cannot recommend Emily enough. She will love your pets like they are her own making sure their needs are met while giving lots of play time and cuddles. She even got my extremely timid cat to take her medicine twice a day- an amazing feat!! Her updates and communication were thorough and put me at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her to everyone in the area and will be booking her for my future pet sitting needs.

About: Since high school, I’ve always had pets around me. When I was full-time Army stationed in Alaska, my leadership asked me to dog sit their pets and ever since then I was the go to dog sitter for our Company. I sometimes spent weeks juggling getting to work in the early mornings and getting home in time to take care of their pets and their homes. I enjoyed taking care of their dogs on the day to day! Im renovating my family’s new house and working in the New Jersey Army National Guard so I appreciate getting some steps in and spending time with pets. I like spending time with pets because they live in the moment. I talk and run with them sometimes when on walks to make them feel comfortable with me.

About: I have taken care of gods since I was 10 years old. Responsible, energetic and just fun, I will make sure your dog has a great day . Dog sitting is not my full time job, spending time with dogs is my pet therapy that I need after a full time job 🤣 I can take care of your dog in my home or take them for a walk when you need. My home has a large backyard and I also have a very friendly Corgi who is excited to meet new friends

About: I’m a professional dog groomer with 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My background has taught me patience, gentle handling, attention to detail, and how to make pets feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I’m skilled at reading dog behavior, maintaining calm energy, and providing attentive, reliable care. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, walks, grooming needs, or simply giving extra affection and reassurance, I treat every dog like family and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I work part time as a professional dog groomer and have 6 years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I spend my days working closely with pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Outside of grooming, I enjoy continuing that same level of attention through pet sitting by providing walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and personalized care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it fits easily into my weekly routine because working with pets has always been a big part of my life. I would care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the home clean, secure, and following all owner instructions carefully.

Paula was responsive and responsible during the booking and meeting process. I have a 12 week old poodle. He has lots of unbridled puppy energy. he is really just learning how to walk on a leash.. Paula was very patient getting the leash and harness on him as well as walking him. I do appreciate that. I would recommend Paula and I would use her for future walks once my dog matures thank you.👍🏽🙌🏽🙏

Kerry Ann helped us out with drop in visits while we were away for our senior dog. Kerry Ann was prompt, arriving when we agreed upon, staying the full drop in time length and keeping us informed with detailed Rover cards. My dog is a bit shy and slower at his age. Kerry Ann took her time with him and made him feel comfortable and also followed all instructions we left. I would highly recommend her. She seems to really love dogs in general which is a plus when you are leaving your beloved pet in their care.

If you need someone to take care of your furry family members, look no further. Layne took care of our dog Pepper for the week. She dropped in 3x a day and was very punctual. Layne was reliable, and stayed in communication by sending photos and texts on each visit. Ensured Pepper was fed, had plenty of water, gave treats, and allergy medication. During a really bad rain storm, the streets were flooded and undriveable at the time of a visit. Layne kept us up to date and was able to make it later that evening. It gives us peace of mind that Pepper was well taken care of while we are away!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Westfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Westfield on Rover is $27.75 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 25,389 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westfield. 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 Westfield 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.

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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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.

To find sitters in Westfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westfield. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.

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.
