“Emily did a fantastic job with my 2 labs! Communication was excellent. She followed all instructions and even cleaned up without me asking. Cannot wait to book her again!”
“We have consistently worked with Vivian for overnight stays and she is the best! Constantly walks and plays with our little girl and gives picture updates regularly! She goes above and beyond what we ask her and she is the best communicator and super kind!”
“Josie was wonderful! She was respectful of our home, very clean, and took great care of our dogs. They seemed really happy and comfortable with her, and communication throughout the stay was easy and consistent. We really appreciated how responsible and considerate she was, and we would absolutely have Josie stay with our dogs again!”
“Shelby was so great!! She did a home stay with our dog Bowie who is very dog-reactive. She followed all our instructions and made sure he was comfortable on walks. She also provided updates and pictures and videos and communicated so much which we requested and really appreciated. Will definitely book her again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter! We loved her!”
“Katie went above and beyond to make sure our pets were taken care of properly. She did a quick visit to meet the pups and get a lay of the house in advance of the housesit. Katie sent updates throughout the stay, which made us feel like we were in good hands!”
“Kat is the best! She has stayed at my house with my senior/special needs dogs twice. I always feel very comfortable knowing my special babies are being taken care of. She is great about sending picture updates and asking questions if something isn’t clear. She even feeds my neighborhood feral cats for me. She is also respectful of my house and I have never had any issues.”
About: Hi I’m Ryder! Taking care of animals isn’t just a job for me, I love doing it. I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was in 6th grade and I am very serious about the safety and comfort of animals. I currently have my own adorable cat and puppy back home who are very happy and healthy. I have a deep love for animals and I can take care of any task you need for your animal. I will send you photo and text updates while with your pet. I will be the perfect sitter/walker for your you! I’m currently a college football player at Golden West College. I have practice Monday-Friday from 7-11AM, and class until 2PM. I am available Monday-Friday from 3PM-10PM! Saturdays and Sundays I have games and church and am not available :/ I understand how important and scary it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while they’re in my care. I treat your pet like it’s my own.
“This was my second time using Rover and I was really nervous. We have had the same dog sitter for about three years now but she is pregnant and due to give birth any day so she was unavailable. Annalie was an AMAZING communicator - incredibly prompt and so nice. Annalie came over for a meet and greet and a tour of the home and agreed it would work! Annalie watched our 12.5 year old French bulldog who has some medical things to be mindful of. We got videos and pictures and checks in as frequently as I requested in the app. I will 100% use Annalie again and I highly recommend!”
“Bianca took very good care of my dog!! She was easy to work with and had great communication. She made sure my dog went out to potty before the end of her shift. I highly recommend!”
About: I have always been a pet lover and I have been taking care of cats and dog (and the occasional fish, rabbit and other rodents) for over 30years! I work for myself with a small clothing business and I also care for my school age child and occasionally volunteer at the school. This makes my schedule fairly flexible In my own home, all 3 of my cats are up to date on all shots and flea treatments. They are all chipped and neutered. I also Trap-Neuter-Release feral cats in my neighborhood
About: I LOVE dogs and have a large mixed-breed rescue of my own who is 12 years old! I’ve cared for her since she was 1, so I have years of hands-on senior care, including administering medication and cooking her meals. My family & friends have trusted me to care for their dogs for years too! I love playing and staying active with pups because I know how important exercise and mental stimulation are for their health and happiness. Long walks are a must! Your pup’s well-being, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, as well as drop-ins and pet sitting. I can accommodate your dog’s usual feeding, potty, medication, and exercise routines, and I’m happy to discuss specific scheduling needs in advance! Your pup’s safety & comfort are my top priorities! I provide a loving, attentive, and stress-free environment where your dog can feel at home. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain your pet’s routine, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs, dietary requirements, or medications. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your fur baby will be treated like family! 🫶🏼
“Danielle was a fantastic dog sitter for my dog, Luna! She sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout my weekend trip and left the house as clean as I left it. She even let Luna sleep in bed with her! Would definitely recommend (:”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around and animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am willing to learn and adapt to taking care of each individual dog as needed to fulfill any needs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving and caring for them. I have experience with both elderly dogs and puppies as young as just a few days old. I am currently available full time during the summer for any drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home I would love to take your babies for walks, to the dog park, or anything else that is a part of their normal routine to make them more comfortable!
About: I've taken care of animals old and young, playful and shy, and they all get the same amount of love and attention. No paw left behind. I work part time at a restaurant. I had been walking dogs the past couple years, as well as taking care of my own cat. Whither it be morning or afternoon, I always make quality time for your pets. Depending on the care needed. I spend time playing, cleaning up after animals, walks depending on how long you choose and any other activities or duties is needed, all done with care and a calm positive attitude toward the animals.
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took such great care of our dog Mookie and our house. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable and knew Mookie was in good hands. She was responsible, communicative, respectful and sent lots of updates and photos. We would absolutely trust Stephanie with our home and dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
About: I approach pet care with the understanding that every animal is different—whether they’re energetic, shy, routine-driven, or need a little extra patience. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have hands-on experience caring for pets with more complex needs. One of my own cats is on anxiety medication, so I’m very comfortable administering oral meds in a calm, low-stress way and paying close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, and mood. More recently, my family dog went through a three-month battle with cancer, where I was actively involved in adjusting care routines, monitoring comfort, and providing consistent, attentive support. That experience deepened my ability to respond thoughtfully to pets who need extra care, patience, and flexibility. I’ve also grown up in a household with up to 12 pets at one time, so multitasking and providing individualized attention is second nature to me. I’m confident managing different routines, energy levels, and personalities all at once. I’m highly detail-oriented and reliable, so you can trust that feeding schedules, routines, and any specific instructions will be followed carefully. I also prioritize communication—I provide consistent updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own: with patience, respect, and a genuine investment in their comfort and happiness. As a Ph.D. student, I have a flexible and structured schedule that allows me to consistently incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I plan my days around responsibilities, which makes it easy for me to prioritize visits, walks, and check-ins without feeling rushed. Caring for my own cats is already a big part of my daily life, so feeding schedules, playtime, cleaning, and monitoring behavior are second nature to me. Adding in pet care for others fits seamlessly into that routine. I’m also intentional about not overbooking, so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning, midday, or evening visits, I’m able to show up consistently and stick to your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Overall, pet care isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and able to build my schedule around. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific habits your pet is used to—so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m very respectful of your home and make sure everything is kept clean, organized, and exactly how you left it. I’m also attentive to the details that matter, like monitoring eating habits, energy levels, and behavior, so I can quickly notice if anything seems off. Overall, I aim to create a calm, reliable presence so your pet feels safe, cared for, and as comfortable as possible in their own home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westminster
Forest came to watch our two golden retrievers and housesit while we were at our wedding. We are so incredibly lucky to have found Forest through Rover, and we would definitely book again! We were able to relax at our wedding knowing our girls were in great hands. Forest also came over for a meet and greet before which made us so comfortable. Thank you for everything!!!
Shelby was so great!! She did a home stay with our dog Bowie who is very dog-reactive. She followed all our instructions and made sure he was comfortable on walks. She also provided updates and pictures and videos and communicated so much which we requested and really appreciated. Will definitely book her again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter! We loved her!
I was in a bind and Caitlin saved me! had a sitter lined up and they cancelled the night before I had to leave for a flight to New York. I didn’t know what I was going to do, so I checked Rover. I messaged Caitlin and told her my circumstances. She went to my house while I wasn’t home (I gave her our house code), she got my dogs, took them to her house and watched them all weekend at her house. She sent pictures and communicated with me the entire time. I was so anxious and she helped me to feel relaxed while she took care of my two babies. I don’t know what I would have done if she had not been so understanding and accommodating. She was a great caretaker and communicator. for sure will use her again.
Jaclyn took great care of our pets, followed all our instructions and sent photos along. She even cleaned up our dogs mess when she got into our babies diaper pail and swept the house before leaving even without being asked. Would definitely book with her again!
Cynthia has pet/house sat for us many times. Every time she has taken excellent care of our pets and this time we have a new dog so there were two dogs of very different ages and energy levels to care for. She was attentive to each one and took great care of our house, too. She is a great sitter and is highly recommended.
Grace was amazing! We always get nervous when booking through rover because we know our dog can be a handful at times. Grace was very reassuring of her positive spirit and enjoyment spending time with our dog. She does really well at communicating and keeping us updated with photos and videos throughout the day as well. She’s very professional, confident, and good at what she does! We’d love to book Grace again if we need a sitter in the future.
We’ve booked Sarah several times and trust her wholeheartedly with our two rescues while we’re out of town. She is so great with them, mindful of our training lifestyle, and respectful of house rules. She communicates frequently and leaves our place spotless upon return. If you want peace of mind while you are out of town, we highly recommend Sarah!
Bryce was great with my dog Millie, he was punctual and it was super nice that I didn’t have to worry about her, especially since it was a last minute booking. I’ve used him for a maternity photo shoot with a previous dog I’ve had & he was able to capture the best photos. Would highly recommend for dog sitting or pet photography

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 Westminster 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 Westminster 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Westminster 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Meet & Greet .
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.
