“Lynn has been taking good care of our pets while we’re away for over two years, six times already. We have been able to rely on Lynn each and every time and will be requesting her services when we plan our next vacation.”
“Evelyn does a great job taking care of our kitties while we are away! We appreciate how she keeps us posted through messages and photos, and that she plays with them and spends time with them each visit.”
“Jennifer is just the BEST! This is our first puppy and we were nervous about leaving him for the first time when we went to work and school. Ziggy adores Jennifer and she really made us feel comfortable during our first meet and greet. She is so good with him and makes sure he eats and does his business while also taking time to play with him and clean him up. I love the daily updates and pictures she sends as well!”
“Tina was an excellent pet sitter. She took wonderful care of my cats by providing updates with pictures and detailed notes after each visit. She ensured they had food and water, addressed any issues like spills, and even brought packages inside. Her rates were very reasonable, which was an added bonus. Overall, I highly recommend Tina if you need someone reliable and caring to watch your pets. She would treat your pet as if it were her own.”
About: Ive always had at leave 2 dog my whole life, Im here to make sure you're pup is pampered while your away. I can Walk, Bathe, Follow any specific instructions per medication/feeding. I work everyday but during my breaks, before and after I am available to check in for potty breaks, feed, play and go for walks Clients home only, I do not have available tools or space to care for pets in my own home.

About: My experience with animals extends well beyond traditional pet care. I have cared for dogs and cats with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs, and I also have extensive hands-on experience with birds. My education as an animal trainer has given me a deeper understanding of behavior, positive reinforcement, body language, enrichment, and the importance of earning an animal’s trust. I am also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, following detailed care and medication instructions, maintaining established routines, and watching closely for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. I approach every animal with patience, respect, and genuine affection, adapting my care to help each pet feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I offer flexible scheduling and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s established routine, including daytime, evening, weekend, and holiday visits. I understand that plans can change, so I’m happy to discuss last-minute requests or adjustments whenever my availability allows. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care at the times your pet needs it most. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and place your pet in their care. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions closely while treating your pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. You can expect timely communication, thoughtful updates, and photos after each visit, so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
“Colleen was able to do a drop in visit very short notice for my dog, who can be nervous around new people and she did a great job! Really helped me out short notice which is so appreciated, and even sent me photos of my dog during the drop in visit. She responded quick and was very professional and kind. I will 100% be a repeat customer, and highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone to dog sit.”
“Corriane is one of the only sitters our persnickety cat will come out of hiding. Corriane takes extremely good care of our kitty and communicates very well. I don’t like leaving my cat alone but knowing Corriane will look after her helps a lot.”
“Bailey was brave enough to hang out and play with my giant Main Coon named Charlie. That is no small feat! She is one of the only humans that Charlie warmed up to so she obviously does well with cats! Bailey is on time and communicates very well! I’ve booked her 3 separate times and never worry about Charlie!”
“Christina did an amazing job of bonding with my cat. It gave me enormous reassurance while I was traveling to know he was being well cared for. Thanks a million Christina. You're at the top of my list when I'm traveling in the future.”
“I was so nervous about leaving my senior cat in the hands of someone else as she is very picky. And usually has choice words for strangers. Chelsea instantly eased my anxieties. She did a meet n greet which I thought was so kind. My cat instantly liked her (which is not usual for her!) Not only did Chelsea do the drop-in perfectly but she even was patient enough for my other skiddish cat to come out of hiding. And she sent plenty of pictures that gave me even more relief on my vacation. She even brought our packages in from the porch! I appreciate her and would definitely book her services again! 10/10 recommend!”
About: I have many years of dog caring experience. I grew up with big and little dogs of all kinds. I am the go to dog sitter in my family. I will care for your pet as I would my own. I’m extremely responsible and dependable. You won’t be disappointed! I am retired and home most of the time. I can give your dogs my full attention and plenty of playtime. The park and a dog park are less than a mile away. I can crate you pet if needed. I have a fenced in yard at my home. We live 2 blocks from the park.
“Lynne did a wonderful job of taking care of my two dogs coming over multiple times in the day while I was at work. She was very attentive and on time it was pleasant to work with her. I definitely will use her again.”
About: I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pet! I love dogs and cats, and have one cat of my own. :) I currently care for family and friends pets when they are out of town, but would love to add a few more pets to my schedule for boarding/drop-ins or walks. I am responsible & reliable and will treat your pet with much love and care! My current availability is evenings after work and weekends. During the summer months (mid June, July, August) my availability is open and I can provide pet care any time. I will follow all directions and give your pets the same love and care I give my sweet babies at home! I am reliable and respectful of others home & pets. You can count on me to take excellent care of your pets!
About: I have owned pets my entire life and cared for many animals throughout that time. I have the most experience with large and xl dogs, including those who are puppies, have more energy, and may still need some extra training. I’m well acquainted with caring for pets with different medical needs, such as mobility issues, medication needs, and sensitivities. I work from home mostly with a flexible day to day, so I can spend time with your pet whenever they need! I have the ability to work from your home if your pet prefers a companion throughout the day or can stop in for walks and potty breaks throughout the day. Leaving your pet in someone’s care is not a simple task and I want to make you feel most comfortable! My priorities will be meeting your instructions for the pet and your home to ensure you’re confident in my care. Trust from both you and your pet are key.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westland
This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so happy that I booked it with Chelsea, she did a fantastic job. I was nervous being away from them for the first time, but I was so impressed with the care Chelsea gave them, they looked so happy in the pictures playing with her. Thank you for taking such good care of Jaxx and Cheerio, that means the world to me.
We are very thankful to have Lynn watch our two cats and one dog while we were on vacation. Because of her care and attention to our pets (our current 3 and others we’ve had over the years she has also cared for), we can enjoy our vacations without worry of whether they are being taken care of — we know they are.
Joselin has taken care of my Shephard twice. Nala does not do well with other dogs and therefore boarding her is not an option. Joselin is absolutely wonderful with her and never fails to send me a picture during each visit. When I get home Nala is happy and safe. I could not have asked for a more dedicated pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Westland on Rover is $23.54 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,099 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westland. 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 Westland 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westland. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
