About: As a lifelong animal lover, I know how tough it can be to leave your pets behind. That is why I am dedicated to providing your entire furry, feathered, or pocket-sized family with the same love, routine, and attention they get from you.I tailor my care to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether it is long walks for energetic pups, cozy chin scratches for sensitive kitties, fresh veggies and cage tidying for small animals, or maintaining specific routines for your birds, I have it covered.I understand that communication is key to your peace of mind, so you can always expect frequent photo updates and quick responses from me. I look forward to meeting your wonderful pets and becoming their favorite substitute parent while you are away! Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I offer part-time pet care with wide availability on mornings, evenings, and weekends! I am available for overnight house sitting . I am also available for early morning or evening drop-ins, walks, and cage/habitat care. I treat your home like a sanctuary. I ensure all doors and windows are locked, alarms are armed, and mail is brought inside so the home looks occupied. I send detailed daily updates with photos and videos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.
“Adyson was wonderful with Minni this past weekend! 🐾 We really appreciate her help, and the photos and video she sent were so cute — it was clear Minni was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Patricia was excellent at following the details of my pets particular needs. She made sure my dog Luna get out for walks when the weather was cool enough and give special attention to my elderly cat Tink’s needs. She communicated with me regularly so I didn’t have to worry and sent photos that brought a smile to my face. She also left the house in good order. I highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to take care of my babies again!”
“Braelyn is a strong communicator and I felt good about her even before she stayed at the house. It was great to get a compilation of photos everyday showing the interactions with the cats. One of our cats is very skiddish and warmed up to Braelyn which is not the norm. Would recommend highly.”
“Margaret was great! She stayed with our two girls for a weekend- one being medically complex and needing medications at specific times. She gave us frequent updates and we knew our girls were in great hands!”
“Haley loved on our 3 pups while we were out of town and did such an amazing job! We had never gone through Rover before and Haley made everything so easy. We will be asking for her again!!”
“Gabby was incredibly communicative and took excellent care of my pup! She sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the night providing peace of mind. Would definitely book again.”
“I booked Katie for a second time since I feel assured that my cat and dog are in great hands with her. She sent me adorable photos of them, walked my dog regularly, scooped the litter boxes regularly, and was very clean. I would love to book her again.”
“Highly recommended! Everyone loved Janelle, even my dog who is scared of everyone and everything. She checked in several times a day which I really appreciated. When I came home my house was left clean, a Very nice card from Janelle and she said she would stay later if our flight was delayed. Above and beyond! I will definitely call for her to come back. You just can’t go wrong she’s wonderful.”
“Mckinzie treated our dogs so well! They are high energy pups and she took them for many walks and hikes during her stay. She sent lots of photos of them and left our house very clean. She also was intentional at the meet and greet to understand how to give our dogs the best care. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Rosie is awesome!! She took great care of our 8 month old puppy and our home while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures and had great communication throughout the stay. She would check in with little videos and pictures of our pup and kept us in the loop about timing and everything. We did not have to worry or wonder at all with her here. And when we returned, our house was super clean even though it had snowed and our backyard was muddy. Above and beyond. Thank you, Rosie!”
“Victor was a super great dog and house sitter. Tonio was happy, the house was clean and the sheets were in the laundry when we got home. He was particularly good with Tonio who can be a little aggressive and bossy. Victor was firm but kind and Tonio fell in line. Victor even fixed something that needed repair in the house while we were gone which was so generous! Above and beyond.”
“Hannah was wonderful! She stayed at our home for two weeks and took excellent care of our dog and cat. She was communicative from the very beginning, letting us know her work schedule ahead of time to make sure it would work for our needs. Hannah sent us regular updates and photos, was responsive to our messages, and gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in good hands. She even washed the sheets before she left, which was thoughtful. We came home to two happy pets. We'd absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our pets and kept us updated while we were away, giving us complete peace of mind. We came home to happy, well-loved pets and couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Hannah and will definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you Ashley!! Ashley is a great sitter for our dog. We have used her multiple times. She watches & walks our dog, keeps the house clean, and is always very responsive to texts.”
“Moriah was amazing! She was so communicative and our fur babies looked like they were having a blast in every pic update 😊 we truly appreciated how she left our place so clean and respected our home and needs for the stay!”
“Taylor did a fantastic job. Our dogs have never been separated from us and they were content and themselves on our return. The house was the same as we left mail neatly stacked on the counter. Couldn’t ask for more”
“Katelyn is very sweet. Came by for a meet and greet a few days before she stayed over and took care of my 8.5 year old dog, Cooper. She is very gentle and quiet and animals respond well to that. She sent me updates over the weekend on how Cooper was doing. I came home to a happy dog and a neat and tidy place, I would book her again!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westminster
This was our first time using Rover and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Edrisa was absolutely wonderful. Our Westie has some separation anxiety so we’re trying to get him comfortable with new people. She had him warmed up to her within a day. Edrisa’s updates and photos throughout the day let me enjoy vacation knowing he was in such great hands. We came home to a clean house exactly as we left it. My husband and I will definitely be spreading the word. We can’t thank her enough and hope she’ll sit for him again!
Jana is absolutely amazing! She made sure all of my dogs were not stressed while we were away! Sent pictures, where it showed that were comfortable and happy. I was very nervous leaving them, but Jana did such an amazing job! I don't travel a lot because of the dogs, but now I feel better about leaving them a few days because I will contact Jana again!
Bethanie was one of the best dog sitters we had. We could tell when we came home that not only was our pup taken care of, but also our home. We feel lucky to have found her and I'm scared to leave this review because she might become too popular on Rover and will be booked out for our trips...hah!
Elizabeth is the best! She watched our cat Panda and our dog Marley and was so attentive and kind. She followed our special care instructions (our cat needs medicine and our dog can’t use stairs). She communicated when she would arrive and leave and sent plenty of updates! Overall I was beyond happy and felt at ease while being away. She is really the best 😊
My wife and I have a blind husky who is very shy, Patricia has been patient with her and allowed her to open up on her time. This is the second time we have used Patricia and Kiara looks so much more comfortable every time she sends us a picture! I love how communicative she is and appreciate all the updates we get. A disabled pet can be hard to be away from, but when Patricia watches her we feel very comfortable in knowing she's getting properly taken care of and loved!
Erika did a wonderful job with my puppy. She was on time, communicative, sent videos and photos, followed care instructions, and my puppy was so happy to see her. Coordinating with Erika was very simple and she was super accommodating to my requests. I would definitely book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Westminster on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,937 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Westminster. 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 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.
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 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 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.
