About: I have had experience with all types of animals my entire life i grew up taking care of my dog widget since i was 7 me and my dog would go to pet training class as well. As my dog had gotten older me and my family had changed our routine and home life to accommodate to my best buds last days so he would be comfortable. I also grew up pet sitting for my aunt and still do.I have owned cats and dogs as well as some smaller rodents. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly schedule because i currently don’t have work and i am studying to become a tattoo artist my day consists of drawing and studying tattooing. i love to drive around so far drives to pet sit will not bother me what so ever!! I make sure to give your pets a stress free environment and give them cuddles depending on your animals personality!! I always make sure your friends are fed on time and taken on adventures with me on a walk and take them out to potty.

“This is the first time I used Rover and I’m impressed. We only needed a drop in for Lucy and Ginger, but Justine did a great job, especially dealing with an over exuberant 4 month old puppy that’s not quite potty trained and an older dog that does not warm up immediately to new people.”

About: I've loved dogs all my life and had the privilege of owning my own fluffy best friend for 16 years. I've experienced every stage of doggy life– the chaos of a puppy, the steady responsibility of the middle years, and the hard work of the senior years. I promise to care for your dog like they're my very own! I am often free during your core work hours of 9am–5pm. I am a freelancer, so my schedule is very flexible and I can easily fit into your routine. I'm unable to care for pets in my own home at this time, but I'm always happy to come to yours. I treat every property with respect, leaving things as I found them, and keeping doors and fences secure. More than anything, I want your dog to feel safe and settled while you're away. Your home and your dog's routine stay exactly as you left them, just with a little more company :)

About: I come from a family who has a soft spot for animals. I have 2 dogs and one cat, but I have experience fostering kittens. I have dealt with all the potty training, crate training, litter training, etc. I recently got my RN & accepted a position that doesn’t start until next month. That being said, my availability is pretty open for this month. Weekday, weekends, whatever you need. I understand that each pet and family has different routines and needs and will happily accommodate those. The goal is to make you feel comfortable and secure leaving me to care for your pet, as I know it can sometimes be stressful to do so. I promise to love and care for them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for 30+ years and take the time to learn each dog’s personality in order to provide a comfortable loving experience. I departed “Corporate America “ to love on dogs full time! We also have a dog park behind our home so your dog would get great exercise and socialization. I’m home all day as the dogs are my passion so they will always have love and feel at home while they are with me. I offer dog walks, doggie daycare and boarding seven days a week! I provide an “at home” setting for dogs so they feel the individual love and attention they deserve. I have 3acres at my home in addition to a dog park behind my home so your pet would get plenty of exercise and socialization.

About: I have had many dogs in my life time and I enjoy walking, talking to, caring for and spending time with dogs when I can. I miss my pets but I am not ready to get one of my own. However, I would love to help you care for your pet when you are gone. I am a teacher during the school year. I usually can help you out on the weekend or nights during the school year. During the summer I can help more often in a variety of days and times. My fur babies have all past. When I have helped friends and family take care of their pets I make sure to get to know their fur baby before they need me to care for them. I learn their pet's routines and I try to spend some time with them so they know my sent. This makes it more comfortable for the owner and pet when I am with them.

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years providing attentive, hands-on care for dogs—including my own pets and trusted dogs for friends. I understand that every dog has their own routine and comfort zone. Whether your pup prefers a quiet indoor space, regular gentle walks, or just a calm, stable companion while you're away, I provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, which gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long stretches—I’m available for regular potty breaks, gentle walks, and plenty of companionship while I work. Because my schedule is predictable, I can easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding, walking, and medication routines. My home is a comfortable split-level in a quiet, walkable neighborhood equipped with plenty of yards and sidewalks for safe outdoor exercise. Inside, there are cozy couches with sunny spots perfect for lounging and relaxing. I focus on creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment, maintaining clear boundaries and constant supervision to keep your pet safe and comfortable.

About: Starting at the age of 11 up to today I have been trusted to take care, bathe and feed animals in my neighborhood, friends and family. I’m well at observing and giving medication if needed for older pets but also can be playful and help with the puppies/kittens as well! I currently work at an animal hospital which helps in my knowledge of feeding and taking care of pets. I work part time, mainly mornings but I’m willing to work around that if needed. I am available on weekends and holidays to take care of your pets needs. I can usually make something work around my schedule. At my house, there is acres of land and space. I have two very friendly dogs which I can either keep away or keep your pet company whichever is fine. For the clients home, I’m willing to work with whatever situation/care is needed

About: I grew up on a farm so I have had animals of all sorts since I was little. I ran an equine boarding facility for 2 and a 1/2 years caring for up to 25 horses at a time. I am currently halfway through my degree to become a vet technician. My husband and I own 3 horses 2 dogs 4 cats and and 4 fish. I love taking our dogs for walks and hiking. Our cats enjoy playing with toy mice, the laser point, and eating treats 😋 We foster cats, so I have dealt with cats of all shapes and sizes! I also have worked with dogs that have a more aggressive/cautious personality. I am willing to work with them as well! Your animals will be in great hands! 😊 I currently work part-time so late morning to late afternoons are the best! My classes are in the evening and we take our dogs on walk in the morning before my husband goes to work. Midday walks and dropins are perfect! We have about 1/2 an acre fenced in backyard that our dogs love playing in and our cats love to play with toy mice, the laser pointer, and eating treats! One of our dogs is older so I am completely comfortable with older dogs and puppies! Since we foster cats and kittens I am familiar with cats of all shapes and sizes!

About: I was an obedience instructor in high school, and took my Sheltie, Mistie, to earn our CD at dog shows. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and feel like I trust them more than people. I’ve never met a dog I was afraid of - bring on your “terrifying” pittie, we’ll be besties within an hour. I’m also great with the teeny, tiny dogs - I’m calm and soothing which puts them at ease. I work part time in Baltimore, so I am available most of the time! I love going on walks and exploring. I also love cuddles on the couch, as well as a fast-paced game of fetch! I will obsessively keep your baby in a leash when we are outside, and well as keep him/her away from other dogs, while out-and-about.

About: I’ve dog sat for a few family friends and absolutely loved it! I love animals (especially dogs) and would be happy to care for your doggo. I currently work part time, and my hours are very flexible. I can always take a lunch break for a quick drop in/walk! I have also lots of time for pet sittings and I always let pet parents know about that upfront before any booking! I am also a college student. For the semester of 2026, I have one online class that is also flexible. I always make sure to follow their daily routines to keep them as comfortable as possible while the family is away. I love communicating as much as possible and sending updates during the stay. I always ask questions and let pet parents aware of their day.

This is the second time we have booked with Courtney, this time adding a very anxious but loving dog to the mix. Our boys were cared for and it was really nice to see our pup’s guardedness soften in each report picture. We highly recommend Courtney’s care if you are in the area!

Kelly did a great job, we have used her a couple of times now to check in on our two chocolate labs while we are away on vacation. She sends detailed descriptions, lots of pictures and always keeps us updated. She even replaced a ball for us that went over the fence. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her in the future!

This is the the 4th or 5th time we’ve had them watch our girls and we always appreciate them so much. They always go above and beyond for us, even bringing in packages off the porch or cleaning up things our dogs messed up while we were away. We appreciate you both! Thank you!

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 Dog Sitting - Westminster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Westminster is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 5,332 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westminster. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 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.

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:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
