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.
“Brandon was so amazing with our sweet pup. He was communicative, transparent, and took the best care of Kipper. Highly recommend, and will definitely be using again!”
About: Hi! I’ve cared for many dogs, from gentle Bichons to high-energy Dobermans, and understand the unique needs of different breeds. I have experience providing compassionate care for senior dogs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. I treat every dog as if they were my own, focusing on their well-being and happiness. While I don’t have the most experience with cats, I love them. It is a dream of mine to adopt one when the time is right! I am embracing my love for animals. I have started volunteering with an animal shelter which has prompted me to continue working with animals thus here I am on Rover! I am very flexible! I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. This includes providing a secure space free of hazards, maintaining routines that help dogs feel at ease, and closely monitoring their behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. I always use positive reinforcement to build trust and ensure they feel loved and supported.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westminster
Jennifer was absolutely amazing while caring for my dog, Baloo, and my home for three weeks while I was out of the country. She went above and beyond in every way possible. Not only did she provide exceptional care, but she also arranged playdates to keep Baloo happy, active, and engaged. What I appreciated most was her communication. Jennifer sent regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from every interaction how much she genuinely cared about Baloo and his well-being. I returned home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for house. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet caregiver.
Miranda was an incredible sitter for our dogs. She was keep us in the loop the entire trip with pictures and updates on how they were doing. She stayed in our house and left it in great shape. Miranda was incredibly considerate asking if she could take the trash to the curb, where to put deliveries, and offering to change the sheets. We will absolutely be booking with Mirando again.
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!
Clairissa is amazing! She has been wonderful to work with and kept me updated throughout the entire stay with lots of pictures and updates on how my dog was doing. My dog can take some time to warm up to people she doesn’t know because of her naturally cautious German Shepherd personality, but she felt very comfortable and happy with Clairissa, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m very grateful for the care and attention Clairissa gave my dog, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Brianne was amazing! Our two pups were very well tended to and cared for, as well as our house and two cats. Brianne was super communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and did a great job sticking to our dogs’ routine and making sure they were comfortable while we were away. If you need a great dog-sitter, ask for Brianne!

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.
