“Marshall is an exceptional dog sitter who consistently demonstrates a high level of care and responsibility. His calm and reassuring demeanor puts both us and our dogs at ease. With a diverse group of four dogs, each with unique care requirements, including a puppy and a disabled dog, Marshall's ability to cater to each one's needs is truly commendable. His genuine love for dogs is evident in the way he interacts with them. He doesn't just provide care, but also engages them in play, creating a fun and comfortable environment. We can confidently leave our dogs under his watch, knowing that they are in capable and caring hands. We highly recommend Marshall for anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.”
About: Hi my name is Coral! I love dogs of all sizes and breeds!! My first dog was a Yorkie named Lilly and I adopted a Doberman named Amber. I’m currently a proud grandma to my son’s Long Haired Dachshund Ralphie. I’m available for dog walks and overnight stays in the owners home. I work in Livingston and would be able to stay in your home and walk your pup before work, on my lunch break and after work. I can be available for dog walks after 6 pm in Livingston. If you live in my local area I can do a walk in the morning 7am and 7pm or later. I can also stay in your home walking them before I leave for work and when I return. I will treat your pet as if they were my own giving them my full attention and be sure to follow any instructions left by the owner.
“Elaine always does an excellent job watching our animals (both cat visits and dog walking). She is great about being flexible on schedule updates and has been a life saver for us in terms of arranging animal care to fit our work schedules.”
About: Boarding Services- dogs 0 to 20 pounds. I grew up in a household that always had multiple dogs and was actively involved in their care, including feeding, bathing, walking, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have been caring for dogs for over 25 years and has always been a natural part of my life. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your loved family member. I work part-time remotely, which means your pet will get tons of cuddles, playtime, and supervision throughout the day! I may occasionally step out for short errands, but I am never away for more than a couple of hours at a time. Your pet will always receive attentive, loving care in a safe environment. • ☀️ Morning Routine (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM): We kickstart the day with a refreshing morning walk to stretch those legs and take care of business. This is followed by breakfast, fresh water, and any morning medications your pup requires. • 🎾 Midday & Afternoon (12:00 AM - 2:00 PM): Afternoon potty break and mental stimulation-just as important as physical exercise! We spend this time also playing fetch in a secure area and playing with puzzle toys/snuffle mat. Afterward, they get plenty of time to lounge, nap, and relax. • 🌇 Early Evening (5:00 PM - 7:00 PM): It's time for another potty break and dinner. If your dog has high energy, this is a great time for a longer evening walk or a trip to a local, nearby park if permitted. • 🌙 Wind Down (8:00 PM - 9:00 PM): We wrap up the day with a final short walk before bedtime. Then, it's quality cuddle and belly rub time on the couch before lights out! I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where your dog will receive personalized attention and care. My goal is to have your pet feel happy and secure, whether they are in their home or mine. I have been a pet owner my entire life and have been relied upon by friends, family, and neighbors for pet care for the past 25 years. My practical, hands-on experience has taught me patience, reliability, and how to anticipate a pet's needs and comfort levels. I’m comfortable with various breeds and temperaments and committed to upholding the highest standard of care.
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.
“Jessica took great care of my two cats while I was away for the weekend. She gave them lots of play and affection, kept them well fed and watered, and kept the litter box clean. She even left a homemade cat toy for them!”
About: I've got a soft spot for senior dogs and tons of experience training puppies! I have learned how to gentle take care of senior dogs and how to be patient. Also patience is key with training puppies, I was home during Covid and my family had work so I would be the one taking care of my puppy. What really sets me apart is the personalized care I provide. I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. I always make sure to follow specific instructions closely, whether it's administering medication, sticking to a particular diet, or maintaining a certain exercise routine. I'm also super attentive and quick to notice any signs of discomfort or distress. Plus, I can send regular updates with photos and videos, so pet parents can see how much fun their furry friends are having! I believe clear communication and genuine care are key to building trust and providing the best possible service. I am currently babysitting 2 family’s, Monday - Thursday. I am also a student but do online school. I do have the weekends completely available. (I also want to point out I have 16 years on pet care experience because I have had dogs throughout my whole life.) When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. I start by doing a thorough walk-through of the home with the client to understand their pet's routines, any specific needs, and house rules. This helps me maintain consistency and minimize stress for the pet. I follow the client's instructions meticulously, whether it's regarding feeding schedules, medication administration, or exercise routines. I also pay close attention to the pet's body language and behavior, to ensure they are comfortable and content. To build trust, I interact with the pet in a gentle and patient manner, offering plenty of positive reinforcement and affection. I also respect their boundaries and never force interactions. By prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment, I strive to provide the best possible care for pets in their own homes.
About: In both my home country of Argentina as well as in the US, I've taken care of small dogs and cats for several friends and families (as well as my own) for the last 15 years. I recently resigned from my regular job to spend more time with my family, and am ready to go back to do something I LOVE...care for cats and dogs :) I have 3 indoor cats who roam around my house, Pulgita, Simon and Patricio. Pulgita is the newcomer, less than 2 years old. Simon and Patricio are old timers, both 14 years old. I have a spacious house for them to roam around and play.
“We were a little nervous about this as it was our first time using this app. Thankfully Amanda made the process so smooth. She communicated with me, and took pictures of the dogs, which put me at ease. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them. I have hands-on experience working at doggy daycare facilities, where I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a potty break, a walk, playtime, fresh food and water, or loving attention while you’re at work or on vacation, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work part-time at k9 resorts. I will love to take care of your baby before or after my shifts! My shifts are 6am-1pm or 1pm-7pm! I can guarantee you at least 3 visits a day with either shift, the times would just differ ! I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care to keep your pets happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, take dogs out for potty breaks and walks, provide playtime, attention, and plenty of love, and clean up any accidents if needed. I follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel relaxed. I can provide basic medications if instructed. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, giving you peace of mind while you’re at work, on vacation, or away from home.
“Kevin dropped in with short notice, was very responsive and helped us feel at ease on a busy day knowing our pup would get some attention and a nice break. A plus for our dog was that he got to play his favorite game. Thanks Kevin!”
About: I have been an animal sitter, caregiver, and foster for animals for over 30 years. My dedication and compassion has always been for animals of all kind. I will most certainly treat your furry family member as if it was my own 🥰🐾 I am currently self-employed and work from home and make my own hours so I am very flexible. I will make myself as available as possible. I have a nice size yard that is completely fenced in with a tall vinyl fence. I would treat your pets as if they were my own.
About: I grew up in a house with lots of pets, both cats and dogs. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to look in on and take care of their beloved pets since I was a teenager. I know what it means to love an animal as your own, and I promise to treat your fur baby or babies with the same love I show my own. I work full time, Monday to Friday, 9-5. I'm available to stop by before and after work, as well as midday (I work in downtown Westfield and can pop out on my lunch as I please). Weekends are generally pretty free. I always make sure they are fed and watered on time, according to their schedules. I make sure they have plenty of toys for solo play when I have to be away. I always make sure all doors to off limits areas are closed when leaving the house.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and absolutely adore them. We lost our two dogs within months of each other and I miss them terribly. I would love to spend some time with other doggies. I work part-time so have a lot of flexibility. I’m happy to drop in or take your dog(s) for a walk. I’m happy to also just hang out with them. Unfortunately my two doggies are no longer with me but I miss taking care of a dog so I would love to be able to help someone out.
“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: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westfield
This was our first time using Rover and Georgiana helped us out when our usual sitter wasn’t available. She tended to our 18 year old cat who has some mild health issues and we wert able to enjoy our time away. Georgiana met me before our trip and I was comfortable leaving our cat in her care
Claire cared for my 2 dogs in our home for a full week with 2 drop ins per day. Daily pics and comments on how things were going gave me peace of mind while I was away and Claire handled the visits like a pro- she is reliable and caring. My dogs loved Claire’s visits!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westfield is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $43 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 26,761 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westfield. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 .
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.
