“Taylor was great! I worry about our pets when we are gone but Taylor communicated well with me. Taylor was responsible and professional. We appreciated all Taylor did with our pets. Taylor went above and beyond my expectations.”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my home for the weekend and took great care of my two cats and my senior Shih Tzu, who requires a little extra attention. I came home to happy pets, a tidy house, and complete peace of mind. She communicated well throughout her stay and made everything feel effortless. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Sage took wonderful care of our babies and home while we were away. We had such peace of mind knowing that they were cared for. We have two dogs with VERY different personalities and sage was able to give them both the attention they needed. Sage was always quick to respond and very easy to work with!”
“Francisco provided an exceptional experience. He took care of our pet cat Gracie and our home for the 3 weeks we were out of town. Gracie was glowing. Our plants were happy and the home, we could tell, was well cared for. We will definitely book again. Anne and Peter”
“Wendy did a wonderful job and we were able to take a 3 day vacation knowing that our little "older" dog was in good hands. She does an awesome job of sending you photos and letting you know your pet is following their normal routine and enjoying the time they spend with her. We would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that normally takes a while to warm up to new people. The first time Wendy met Chip, it was "love at first sight". Thank you Wendy!”
“Mad is amazing! I have two pups with some social anxiety and she was absolutely perfect with them. She spent time getting to know their personalities, was patient, and communicated constantly with me (a nervous first time dog sitter user / neurotic dog mom). She took amazing care of my fur babies and left my house immaculate. Already booked my next stay with Mad! Highly recommend!”
“Cecilia was great with our 2 senior dogs and our last minute trip. She communicated promptly and eased all my worries while I was overseas. She also sent lots of pictures. For my first experience with a sitter and rover this was great. Will definitely rebook.”
About: Hi I’m Madison! I love animals and have dog sat on multiple occasions for elderly and young dogs. I’d love to take care of your animals in exchange for the happiness I’ll get from walking and interacting with them! I have pretty open availability at the moment. I can pop in a couple times during the week or stay longer if needed. I do have animals at home so extended days will need to be talked about. I would love to take your dog to a dog park or a nearby trail to get some extra energy out during my stay if wanted!
“Kimberly was responsive and communicative. My husband and I have not left Buddha overnight with someone he didn’t know and he did great. Kimberly made is all feel comfortable and my husband and I were able to enjoy a night away knowing our baby was in great hands. Definitely will be using Kimberly again.”
“Madison was very accommodating and followed directions well. We have a senior dog who takes meds that are very important. Madison made sure to let me know when her meds were administered making us feel secure that are dogs were safe.”
“Celeste went above and beyond caring for our two large boxers. We absolutely loved the daily photos and her communication throughout our trip. It was clear right away that our dogs trusted her immediately and listened to her so well. She was incredibly courteous in our home and so respectful the entire stay. This was our very first time using Rover, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Celeste made us feel completely at ease and confident that everything was under control. We truly could not be more grateful for her care and kindness. We will 100% be using Celeste again in the future!”
“Michael and Zoe are knowledgable dog caretakers who treated our kookie Dalmatian like a member of the family. She had fun with their dogs. I would highly recommend them to dog parents who need to leave their fur babies in good hands.”
“Candy was wonderful. I would trust her with our dog and cat again. She was communicative, left the house if anything cleaner and even made a holiday card of our pets.”

“1 MILLION out of 5 STARS, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Kambry is truly exceptional in every way! Our dogs mean the absolute world to us. With our children grown and out of the house, our two senior pups (13 and 14) are very much our babies. They experience significant anxiety when boarded, so for years we've had someone stay in our home whenever we travel. After almost 10 years with the same trusted sitter, moving to a new state and starting over with someone we'd never met was no small thing. Finding Kambry was an absolute blessing! My husband and I both have demanding executive careers, and we needed someone we could genuinely trust to stay with our pups and take care of our home while away on an important, nearly weeklong business trip. From our very first conversation through her thoughtful follow up after we returned, Kambry was outstanding. Incredibly responsive, thoughtful, professional, and genuinely kind. Her background in the military, fire service, and first responder training initially caught my attention, but it was the way she carried herself and cared for both our dogs and us as their pet parents that really set her apart. She's beyond capable and exceptionally conscientious, while still having the warmth and genuine love for animals that make someone a truly wonderful pet sitter. Her communication deserves its own five star review. Multiple times a day, without ever having to ask, she sent thoughtful updates with the best photos and videos. We could see how relaxed, happy, and loved our dogs were. For anyone who has ever spent a trip worrying about their pets, you know how priceless that is. We didn't spend a single moment wondering how things were going. Her PROACTIVE communication gave us complete peace of mind and clarity. And then there's the house. We'd been in our brand new home for less than two months, so having someone stay there was another leap of faith. Kambry treated it with the same care and respect she gave our dogs, even helping us navigate a few unexpected household matters while we were away. Our home was pristine when we returned, and she even left us a sweet note welcoming us home! What impressed us most was that Kambry didn't simply do everything we asked. She anticipated our needs, paid attention to the smallest details, and made the entire experience effortless. We were able to be fully present on our trip, knowing that everything we cared about most back home was in wonderful hands. Kambry is the rare combination of highly qualified, exceptionally reliable, and genuinely caring. Finding someone who inspires this level of trust and peace of mind is truly priceless. If you're fortunate enough to find an opening on her calendar, BOOK HER! She is absolutely be our first choice every time we travel.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 918 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Westma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Westma walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Westma maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Westma 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
