Virginia was very kind and informative. She sent pictures of the animals every day insuring me they were okay, leaving me with no worries on my trip. I will definitely be rebooking with her again soon. 10/10 recommendation!

Lindsey was awesome! She stopped by a day prior to meet my feisty pet that doesn’t really let anyone touch her. The next day Lindsey started her shifts and my dog acted like she knew Lindsey from before! Awesome person. Will definitely use her services again!

About: All my life I’ve grown up around dogs, rabbits, fish, and most recently cats! So I’m no stranger to the cuddly, silly, and sometimes unpredictable behaviors pets can throw your way. I have experience volunteering at the Carroll County Humane Society working in the cat room to socialize kitties, and in the dog area providing them with enrichment activities! As a longtime pet lover and owner I understand that every animal is unique and has their own quirks and personalities, and I’m capable of learning your pet and giving them the best care I can! I always treat my clients homes and pets with care and respect. I’m sure to clean up after myself and the pets. I’m not just a pet sitter I’m also a house sitter so I’m willing to get the mail, take trash out, etc…

Thank you very much for giving us peace of mind while we are away. The “report cards” are great and you are very descriptive which is another added layer of comfort for us. The pictures you take are great. We can’t thank you enough for your kindness and generosity. We will definitely be in touch for future drop in visits!

Riley was awesome! She came over a few days before to get the lay of the land and attempt to meet my cat (she hid and I still have no idea where she was hiding). Suzie did eventually warm up to Riley and even sat in the same room as her! I will be using Riley again!

About: Home Environment I live in a spacious house featuring a securely fenced back yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and relax. My Chihuahua, who is notably sociable and friendly, enjoys interacting with other dogs, cats, and people alike. Resident Pets In addition to my Chihuahua, I share my home with two cats that I rescued from the local animal shelter. Both cats are well-adjusted and accustomed to living with dogs. Typically, after a brief introduction consisting of a few sniffs and perhaps a hiss, they are able to coexist peacefully with other cats. Experience and Availability Since retiring from the Army, I am available around the clock to care for your beloved pet. With more than 26 years of experience in owning and caring for both dogs and cats, I am well-versed in understanding and meeting their unique needs. Commitment to Care I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own, ensuring its safety, comfort, and happiness. Every animal entrusted to me is treated as an extended and respected member of my household. I am a retired Army veteran and parent of a Chihuahua and 2 cats. I am available around the clock to take care of your fur baby as a respected member of my household. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly Chihuahua to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My cats ignore dogs that don't want to play. If your dog dislikes cats, I am able to separate their living areas while your dog is on-site.

About: I have my own dog in an apartment complex, it’s very time consuming because you can’t just let them outside. I have been a dog owner for years and treat them as if they are my children. I’m currently a part time server and am enrolled at Penn state. I only have class once a week so I have a lot of free time throughout the week to do anything. I work short shifts as a server, I could still do pet care on days I serve. I live in an apartment complex, my dog is very well taken care of. He’s very well loved, he goes on a lot of play dates throughout the week and lots of walks and car drives. He sleeps in bed with me and has friends that take him out when I’m at work that live with us.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was in high school. I have friends and neighbors that rely on me to take care of their pets. I've also taken care of animals other then cats and dogs. I've done rabbits and Guinea pigs. I feed, give baths, give medications and walks. I can currently do this full time. If you ask me to do a 24 hour stay. I am available for that as well. I just need to know at least 4 days ahead of time. My SO travels for work. And I would need to fit my dog into that schedule. Just know I will have other pets to take care while staying at your home. And will not be there 24/7. I will be staying at your house on my breaks and overnight if requested. We do not have a fenced in backyard. But we do take him on several walks a day. Regardless of the weather. He is unbothered by it.

About: Hi there! 👋 After taking a two-year break to settle into a new area about an hour away, I’m excited to be reactivating my Rover profile! During that time, my family and I went through some changes — we said goodbye to our two beloved dogs and recently welcomed a playful new puppy who’s now 6 months old. I’m looking forward to socializing him while providing loving, reliable care for other families’ pets - whether you need help with walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or anything in between. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pups. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your days a little easier and your pets a lot happier! I am a stay at home mom and dog mom with a lot of mouths to feed! I am on Rover for not only an income but because I am readily available most days! We would love the opportunity to snuggle your fur babies :) I care for your animals as if they are my own. Love and plenty of play time if that’s what they are into. If they want to be a potato we have plenty of couches!

About: I've been around animals my whole life. From the littlest of fish, to the largest of cows and other farm animals! I have 3 dogs of my own, two Colorado mountain dogs and a medium pittie mix. I also have 4 geckoes (2 leopards, a giant Madagascar day gecko, and my newest boy, a harlequin crested gecko!). I've dog-sat little dogs, big dogs, disabled and elderly dogs, as well as young pups and households with multiple animals! I will give you the best care, whether it be for your pets, home, or more! Right now I work part-time at a bakery on Sundays, and I am also a full-time college student! Thankfully, my schedule is very flexible and my attention will solely be on your furry friends. I always make sure to keep my client's homes clean and organized, and pay special attention to any extra tasks I'm giving, such as watering plants (I have dozens of plant babies!), changing the temperature, emptying dehumidifiers, and retrieving packages. Anything you need, I will do to the best of my abilities! I like to update my clients daily on their pets to ease their mind.

About: I have had dogs and other small animals for my entire life. Currently have two dogs of my own. A pug and a jack russel/dachshund mix. I watch my friends dogs when they are away. I will treat yours like my own and make sure they are happy and healthy after my visit. Cuddles, kisses, and lots of play time. I have experience with all types of breeds from miniature to large. I also had a dog previously for 12 years who was blind for two, so I have experience with blind dogs as well. You can rest assured that no matter what kind of dog you have and what their needs are, they will be well taken care of. I look forward to meeting your pet(s). I am flexible and can work around most schedules. Let’s chat about your needs. I am more available in evenings and weekends and weekdays during lunch and early mornings. I have a fenced in yard. I have two dogs to keep your babies company as well. When in your home I will take every precaution if you don’t have a fence yourself.

We can’t say enough good things about Jonathan and Jen! From the very first visit, it was clear they truly love our dog like their own. They always send the sweetest pictures and updates, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. They also take the time to practice commands and reinforce training, which we really appreciate. Our pup is always happy, well cared for, and clearly adored when he’s with them. We’re so grateful to have found such kind, reliable, and loving dog sitters. Highly recommend!

Noah is the best and my dogs love him so much!! He dropped in for us again, totally last minute request, to feed and let them out and to give my epileptic dog her medication which is very time sensitive. He is so kind and caring towards them, gives them lots of love, and he is trustworthy and respectful entering our home when we aren’t there. We will happily request Noah every time we need someone to check in with our pups!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Westminster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Westminster on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,542 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westminster. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Westminster stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Westminster with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westminster. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
