“Lynn is fantastic with both of my boys, Tyson and Rocky. She is so sweet to them and extremely accommodating with my busy schedule as a nurse. It eases my stress during my long shifts knowing Lynn has my boys taken care of. Thank you Lynn!”
“Kristina is the absolute best with my dogs. I used her M-Th for months and just backed down to when needed,only due to niece moving in and her ability to let the dogs out during the day. I catch myself still sending her pics of the pups because I know they miss her. She sends updates and pics at every visit. She does extras for them as well as gifting toys that I know they love. If you're looking for someone extremely reliable and trustworthy, look no further. She is fantastic.”
“Jennifer was terrific! Our pup is a little bit stubborn and has pretty high anxiety when we leave her and Jennifer definitely was accommodating to her needs. She was also extremely flexible to a schedule change while we were away, which was very helpful. Her communication was terrific. Looking forward to our next experience. Thank you!”
“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.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for a Golden Retriever, a Husky, and a Jackapoo, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I currently have four cats of my own, so I am also very comfortable caring for cats and understanding their unique needs and behaviors. Through the years, I have gained experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, litter box maintenance, administering basic medications, and providing pets with a safe and loving environment. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their pets while they were away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or simply someone reliable to check in on them, I am committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. On Fridays, I work from home and have flexibility throughout the day, including my lunch hour. I am available for evening walks and drop-in visits during the week, and I have open availability on weekends. I am committed to being reliable, punctual, and providing pets with the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care and will treat them as if they were my own.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Rhonda more than 5 stars, I would! She was an absolutely incredible caregiver for my cat, Luna. This was my first time leaving Luna, and Rhonda provided so much peace of mind with her detailed updates and wonderful photos. She went above and beyond just the basics—she took the time to earn Luna's trust, played with her energetically, and noted all the little details about her personality. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for animals. My sometimes-standoffish kitty even warmed up to her by the end of the visits! Rhonda is reliable, caring, and an excellent communicator. I am so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. Don't hesitate to book with Rhonda—your pet will be in the best possible hands!”
“10000/10!✨ getting married in another state, gone for 4 days & 4 cats, plus one who medicated twice a day & she was there everyday, updates with tons of photos, she’s so sweet & made me feel so relaxed leaving all my babies with her. I would highly recommend her 🤍 I will be using her again”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager: dogs and cats. I love to take care of them, my house is their home! I’m working part time job. I can manage to pet sitting anytime and any day. They will be spoiled, and I’ll treat them like my own! I treat all pets like or best than Luna. I won’t let the cats outdoors and for dogs I’ll give them a walk and play time if they’re energized. I follow all the requirements that I get from owners.
“Evelyn has been great with my cats. She is responsible and attentive and communicates well. This is the second time she has helped me and I will continue to use her in the future.”
“Renee was amazing with my dog, Greta. She took the time to take pictures and tell me how the time went. I felt that she was well taken care of and in good hands while I was away at my home.”
About: I will treat your pet not only as my own, but give it that same respect as I would any human. I have pet sat over night, during the day, and just for a few hours and I loved every minute of it. I’m very responsible and always go over and beyond when taking care of animals, because they are more than just animals they are family. I have had two dogs in my lifetime and cared for them and gave them so much love until they sadly passed away a few years ago. I now have a cute little Terrier mix dog named Lavender! I often watch my cousins dog whenever they go out of town and my friends cat. Hopefully you will give me the chance to shower your pet with lots of love!!!! I am currently in graduate school, so my schedule is flexable enough to give your pet all the love and attention it needs and wants!! I have a big open field next to my building where I take my dog out 3-4 times a day to run around and play!!
“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.”
“Lauren was great! She watched our girl while we got married and it was so cool to get photos of her while we were sitting down to eat! She was prompt, very kind and took amazing care of her! Would highly recommend and will request her again in the future!”
“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.”
“Faith checked in on our cat while we were out of town for spring break. There was a little hiccup at the beginning but we figured it, and after that every went smoothly. Faith was very honest and accommodating which I both appreciate very much. Communication went well, and the regular picture updates showed clearly that our cat felt comfortable enough around Faith to come close engough to get petted and to play. We arrived home to a well cared for cat and home. Thank you very much. When we need a sitter again and our schedules line up, I'm booking Faith again.”
“Erica took great care of our two dogs, Winston and Ruby! She did two drop-in visits and a walk with them. She kept us updated with pictures and texts during her visits which was much appreciated. We came home to two happy and well-cared for dogs! We will definitely use Erica again in the future.”
About: I have been around pets my entire life. I have had 2 cats and 3 dogs in my life span. My first job was at a doggy daycare. My cousins are currently managers at that doggy daycare so I have learned a lot more about pets. I have taken care of pets with certain medications that need to be taken in a timely manner and have fed dogs with certain feeding habits such as a slow feeder bowl. I also have taken care of pets that were at one point strays and are becoming accustomed to their new home. So before becoming a pet sitter I worked 2 jobs as one as a biomedical engineer and the other as just a normal Home Depot associate. I decided to leave Home Depot as it just became too much for me as they were both full time jobs and so I am just a biomedical engineer now. I work the pet care around my daily job as a biomedical engineer and don’t let my daily job affect the care of a persons pet. So when it comes to taking care of someone’s pet the owner knows best like no one can know your pet more than you do so I will follow your instructions to the smallest detail and I will take care of your pet just as you would and never do anything with out the owners consent. Because you need to feel comfortable and confident in me taking care of your pet so you can relax and feel good about being away from your pet.

Courtney did a great job taking care of my cats. I have one cat who is an escape artist, so I was very nervous he might get out. But Courtney was very careful, and there were no issues. I have been searching for a cat sitter that I can trust and feel comfortable with. I can say, I will definitely hire Courtney for our next vacation.
Chelsea was kind enough to take our last minute request to catsit our family of furbabies which we greatly appreciated! She was very communicative throughout, including the meet and greet and the actual catsitting. We will definitely be asking for her services in the future!
Kristina is wonderful! I have a very nervous and reactive dog and Kristina came over to meet my dog before babysitting and was great with my dog. She sent lots of photos and updates during her visit to let me know how my dog was doing with her which was much appreciated. Will definitely be a repeat customer with Kristina!
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 $24.42 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 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 July 2026, there are 4,154 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.
