“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my babies :) she walked Bee, made sure she took her medicine, and gave them both plenty of snuggles. I would absolutely rebook if needed <3”
About: I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 20 years. I do have two cats but I can separate them away from pet. I am good with all types of different pets. I am home during the day and so I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pet. I have time to walk and play with dogs and spend time with cats. I have a large yard just outside my home where the pet can play. I live in a quiet area so the animals will not be disturbed.
“Nicole did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. Her communication was great before and during the stay. She left the house clean. I highly recommend her! I could tell she took care of Altai as of her own!”
“Sam was an amazing house sitter and took great care of Rocky and Luna! He was able to help us in a very short notice and we are so grateful for him. He also had exceptional communication with photos every day, and took the dogs on a walk every day (which is not easy with my two huskies). 10/10 experience, thank you Sam!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! Nikki was incredibly communicative from start to finish, providing regular updates that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for our dog — he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved when we returned. On top of that, she left our home spotless and tidy, which we truly appreciated after traveling. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional sitter!”
“Maggie was exceptional throughout the entire process and I highly recommend her services! We had three dogs and she gave each of them the loving they needed while we were away, while providing us updates of all the fun they were having together!”
“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!”
“When my house sitter had to have last minute surgery, Jordan was able to swoop in last minute. He took wonderful care of my house and pups and had great communication. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for +A sitting.”
“Scott was an amazing dog and house sitter. We had an emergency situation and he was able to come in and our pups were taken care of great! Definitely would be happy to have Scott watch our dogs again.”

“Danielle was great! She took amazing care of our dog Bean while we were gone for a 10 day trip, and she made us feel very at ease. Lots of photo updates, attentive care, and overall just a great experience.”
“Elizabeth is amazing! She took fantastic care of our doggo - took her on some great hikes, sent a lot of pictures and updates, and was super flexible with her schedule to meet our needs. We are VERY happy with Elizabeth and will 100% be booking her again. Thank you Elizabeth for all of the love and care you gave Kona!”
“Kamilla stayed at our house and took care of our two young cats for a little over a week. She was very communicative, took great care of the cats and was very respectful of our home. We have already booked her for two more upcoming trips and we would highly recommend her to anyone else!”
About: I grew up loving dogs. I always had at least one dog in our house. Since then, I've volunteered with dogs for the past ten years. I've volunteered in human societies, with the dumb friends league, and for local community rescue events. Though I don't have my own dogs, because I travel too often, I love being around animals. I am available for quick match dog walks, dog walking, visits, and overnight dog sitting. I'm work from home and am very available, and looking forward to helping you out and meeting your dog. I promise to give your dog all of my love, attention, and pets. If your dog happens to be more active, that's great, and I'll be happy to take him or her for walk and runs per your request. I have a very flexible work from home schedule. I can plan my work around your pet's needs and am happy to adjust my time to fit my Rover obligations. I have a fenced in yard for your pet to explore and play in. I'll send updates throughout your pet's time with me to provide assurance and comfort, letting you know they're safe and happy.
“Taylor exceeded my expectations. I had another sitter cancel, and found Taylor just two days before leaving on my trip. She not only came by for a meet and greet that day, but also showed up early on the evening I left to go over things and walk Rocco with me before I left him in her arms. She followed my instructions to a T, and she was great with sending photos and updates, keeping the house clean and tidy, bringing in deliveries and, most importantly, staying home with Rocco almost all week. I’d definitely rebook her.”
“Stephanie was amazing! She was so communicative and flexible, we greatly appreciated having her watch our senior pup and take care of our home while we were away. Our return flight was delayed and she was so accommodating and left our house spotless. Would definitely have her housesit/pet sit again in a heartbeat!”
“Michaela took care of our dogs for the day so we could to spend time with family - she was here right on time, communicative, left the place spotless, sent us updates of the pups throughout the day and took great care of them. When we got back they both seemed like they had a great, playful day. So nice to be able to spend the day away not worrying about them since they were in good hands 😊”
“Aimee was 11/10 sitter for our two doggies, one who’s a senior and requires extra care and daily meds. She communicated well with photos and updates on the doggies. The home was left in great condition. So happy to have found her and hope to utilize her services again. Highly recommend!”

Meaghan is one of the absolute best sitters we’ve ever had. She is kind, communicative and so, so great with our dogs. We appreciate her so much, and are so grateful for the love and care she gives our pups. She takes wonderful care of our home and our pets, and we feel so lucky to have found her!!
Katy is amazing! She took such good care of our dog Rue while we were out of town. Getting up early every morning to get her a walk before it got too hot, was so attentive to favorite toys and games to play, lots of outside yard time and gave her so much love. She was reliable and incredibly communicative with us sending updates and pictures regularly putting our minds at ease. I cannot recommend her enough!
AJ was an ideal sitter for Bohdi and went above and beyond our expectations. She handled his new sprained back with care and even removed a mouse that fell into the water bowl without batting an eye! Bohdi was calm and so well cared for in our absence and the house was spotless with towels in the dryer as she departed. Would definitely use her again!!! Grateful to have met her!!!!
McKenzie was so great with my dogs. Spent a lot of time with them during the weekend which I know they appreciated in my absence. She communicated with me throughout her stay with my beagles and I really appreciated the updates. My home was just as I left it when I returned. I will absolutely be using her again with my pups!
Liz was an amazing sitter. She was the best communicator and loved on our pups. She let us know if anything came up and made sure to send photos of dogs. She treated with such care that when we came back, we could tell it was like we never left. She even left some sweet mini photos of our pups for us and sewed up a couple toys that our dogs love to tear up. She went above and beyond! We would absolutely love to have her sit for our dogs again!

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!

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.
