“This was the second time Jordan watched my cats and I think they remembered him because they were completely themselves around him. I love his updates from each visit. It makes it a little easier to be away from them. I'll definitely continue booking with Jordan!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, as well as pets like fish, guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, etc. I own three dogs right now, I take them on daily long walks and I have personally trained them myself. I have also had experience with aggressive dogs, I am good at reading them and calming them down. I am passionate about any animal, and will negotiate prices. I am in the Cleveland area, I am an attorney but would love to care for animals in my free time. I am responsible and respectful of other people's property and of course, their animals. I am trustworthy and willing to work with all types of dogs in order to make a client happy. Please contact me anytime, I would love to meet your fur baby and become great friends! I have three dogs - I wake up around 6am for feeding, potty time. I work from home, so I am constantly checking on my animals and I am capable of walking them through out the day. Dinner is usually served around 5pm. Bed time around 9pm. I have a fenced in yard, I will provide your animal its own space and a happy loving environment. I am an animal lover and will also send lots of fun pictures on our adventures.

About: We are so excited to open our home to new visitors. We are a home with lots of love, a fenced-in yard, and a sweet 4-year-old dachshund-beagle to keep your pup company. I currently work from home and have the daytime and weekend availability to meet the needs of your pet. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and even house visits during the week. I have a large fenced-in yard with lots of sniffing areas. Our community is very walkable with sidewalks, parks, and the beach nearby. Our pup Ruby is great with other dogs and would love to have a buddy in our home to play with.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I have an 18 year old pup at home! I’m very passionate about the quality of life for our furry friends, and can’t wait to meet yours! Safety and fun are my main priority. I’ve transitioned to pet care full time! If you’re looking for someone to spend extended periods of time with your furry companion, I’m your girl! On top of house sitting, I’m also available for walks and drop in visits. I always make sure to follow instructions left by owners as closely as possible. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable and at ease with my care! I do my best to keep dogs exercised as needed so you have a sleepy pup by the end of the day.

About: I grew up with both a dog and a cat, so I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets of different personalities and needs. I know how important daily walks are for a dog’s happiness and health, and I love spending time outdoors with furry friends—whether it’s a quick stroll around the block or a longer adventure. I’m also comfortable with drop-in visits, providing pets with fresh water, meals, playtime, and lots of love when their owners can’t be there. I treat every pet like my own- I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for when you’re away!! I'm available in the Mon-Thurs evenings starting at 5:30 p.m. Fridays I am available after 12 pm and weekends are variable, so please message for availability! I can be flexible. I am happy to do walks and drop ins and can be flexible to whatever routine works best for your pet's care! I am available to do overnights at my home for smaller pets, so please message if interested.

About: We are going on 6 years of being pitty parents (Mr.Bandit!) and I just adore him! I have also always have had dogs growing up and understand how much love and attention they need! I want to make sure that anyone that leaves their pet knows they are being cared for the right way and they get the much needed play time or exercise! I am use to giving multiple pills a day and am very familiar to dogs with allergies. No animal is too big or small for me! I watch my families, neighbors, and friends dogs. I would be happy to answer any questions you have and am excited to meet your pets! I currently work remote and have more flexibility in my daily schedule. I still do travel to my facilities in the area but I make my own schedule and am very flexible! My evenings are more freed up for long walks and play time if needed! I care for your pets like I would mine. If they need to be on a structured schedule, I will make sure that happens! If they need crated or allowed to be out, I will make sure that things are being followed as I know every pets needs are different. If there are no rules, I will make sure the pet is well cuddled and loved during my visits!!

About: Recently left my quality management role at Amazon and now pursuing a career in what feeds my spirit - animals. My pets have changed my life for the better, I believe everyone should have the ability to experience what I have! Since I was in kindergarten I have had a unique connection with animals, and starting this new chapter in my life is terrifying yet amazing. So if you decide to book with me or only will you be supporting local (so thank you), but you will feel completely at peace knowing your pet is not just another checkbox on my list…. But a new friend I am happy to have made. I exercise my pets everyday and ensure they are training consistently. I currently have a flexible schedule so we can work on your needs and scheduling. My home is puppy proof, along with a gate I use to separate the upstairs from downstairs so my cat can have some peace and quiet lol

About: I've always had a deep love for animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I provide patient, dependable care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether it's energetic puppies, playful adult dogs, gentle senior pets, or cats who prefer a calm approach, I tailor my care to each animal. I'm happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, provide plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and regular updates with photos. I can accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of affection based on your pet's individual needs. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine and will make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and any special requests. In your home, I respect your space, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean environment. I stay alert during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving the loving care they deserve.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 8 and spent a summer in high school raising my family’s new puppy. My family has had frenchies, a labradoodle, and a corgi/beagle mix I have experience with small dogs such as frenchies and larger dogs as well. I work full time, 8 AM - 5 PM. I also am a mom to an infant. I am available for drop ins, and for walking as needed. Although I do not offer services in my home, due to my cat being afraid of other animals, I will treat your home as my own. I am experienced with house sitting and take pride in making sure you never have to worry about anything while away.

For those staying over night, we have a fenced in third of an acre for lots of running, playing or just enjoying all the smells. We live on a pretty low traffic/quiet street, so not too many distractions during walks. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend(s) 🐕 and make sure they have a great walk/stay! 🐾 Available 7 days a week. For walks and drop - ins, I am available between 7 am to 11pm. Can do walks and drop-ins later for night shift workers, when given advance notice. For those boarding, we have a fenced in third of an acre for your dog to run and play.

Lauren was an excellent pet sitter—always timely, reliable, and attentive to our dog’s needs with feeding, walks, and care. On cold or rainy days, she made sure he still got quality time inside, whether that meant playing or giving him extra pets. She was very communicative, patient with my messages, and consistently sent photos, which I truly appreciated.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Westlake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Westlake is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 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 1,933 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westlake. 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 Westlake 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 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.

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 Westlake 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 Westlake. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
