About: I have lots of experience with dogs! I had a dog from the age of 8 to 20, my neighbors have asked me to watch their dogs, and I've done long-term overnight sitting for my manager a couple times, among other dog watching experiences :) I work full time, but I'm able to take care of your dog on nights and weekends 😊 I'm usually available on most holidays as well! I'm very attentive to pets and their needs, and I'm willing to follow all of the rules you have for your pets. I'm aware of my surroundings at all times and watch for dangers to any pets I care for.
“We were blown away by Victoria’s professional job with our 6 pets while we were gone for 4 nights and 5 days! They all had medications or supplements. The 2 labs had walks each day that weather permitted. The house was vacuumed and the bed was laundered and made! She had a report card for each pet! I highly recommend Victoria for any of your fur babies! 😊🦮🐈🦮🐕🐈🐈⬛”
“This is our first experience with Vonda. Our longtime dog sitter unexpectedly moved out of town for a new job, and we needed to find a new sitter quickly. We contacted Vonda and she was available to meet with us the same day – and we booked her the next day. Vonda responded to any questions or requests we sent her way during our travels. We are very happy with the excellent care Vonda provided for our fur baby and for our home while we were away... We recommend Vonda and hope to use her services again should the need arise.”
About: I’m reliable, active, and patient, and I’ll treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, puppies who need structure, and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra care. My goal is to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Being a pet caretaker fits into my daily routine because I am able to work from home. This allows me the ability for check-ins/walks and for the consistency that a pet owner needs when they are away. In a client’s home, I follow the owner’s routine closely so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I can help with feeding, water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and check-ins. I’ll also respect the home, keep things clean, and make sure the pet is cared for before I leave.
About: I’ve been dog/cat/house sitting since I was about 14! What started out as something I could do for a little extra money quickly turned into something I have a strong passion for and through that I have gained reliable clients and relationships! I have been taking care of many animals through those years and have grown to appreciate each breed as their own individual! Though I’m not specialized in animal care my love, vigilance and passion for helping and taking care of animals makes up for that. I’ve had three cats and a big dog. My latest cat is blind so I’m familiar with some medical care as well! And if you have a reptile (no venomous) no worries! I have experience with them as well as I have my own leapord gecko! I know everyone wants someone loving, reliable and trustworthy to watch over their fur babies and I will not disappoint! On a typical day in the summer I usually have off as I work full time during the school year. Which leaves me free during the day and night for visits or to watch over night. I am free to watch, walk or just play with your fur baby at any time! I typically will do a no charge visit prior to me meeting a new client and animal/s to get a feel for their environment and how your day to day typically runs so I know their routine. I try not to disrupt their normal routine as much as possible! Once we have established the routine I will follow it depending on your specifications! I have experience with all shapes and sizes. I typically bring in mail and packages, water plants and light cleaning if you so desire. It’s all what you’d like! It’s you and your fur babies world I’m just living in it!
“Kim took very good care of our two dogs while we were away. Our boys were happy and that’s what matters most! I very much appreciated her flexibility throughout our booking. Kim is kind and very personable. I feel comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. She also is very tidy which is appreciated! I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. I’ve never lived without a dog in my home. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and age. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like family keeping owners updated with photos and giving their furry friends plenty of love and attention. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I’m available mornings and evenings for walks and check-ins, and I keep weekends open for longer stays. I’m home often and always make time to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m willing to do whatever makes you and your pets most comfortable. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals feel safe and comfortable. I follow any instructions owners provide, and send regular photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Hey! I’m a 22 year old nurse looking for a side gig and to snuggle with some pets! I’ve had golden retrievers my whole life, and 2 kitties! I’ve had dogs from 2 months-15 years, and cats 6 weeks to 18 years! I will send pictures and updates with every visit, and be respectful of your home. I’d love to help with your furry friends 🤗 I currently work 3, 12 hour night shifts a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry friends! I love going on walks, and taking dogs with me makes it so much more fun! I also love cuddling with puppies and kitties, and playing with them in your home!
About: Hi there! I'm Farah. I have ample experience with all size dogs and an array of special needs dogs, including caring for disabled dogs, giving meds, and managing strict diets and feeding schedules. I’ll be there when promised and will provide updates and/or photos. I am comfortable with all breed sizes and will prioritize your dog's safety and comfort. My chorkie is attached to me so for any overnight or daytime boarding, he will be present unless otherwise stated. He is 6 pounds now and comfortable with cats and small to medium dogs. He is not fixed yet, so please let me know if your girl dog is not spayed. Weekdays: I am not available 8a-4p on weekdays due to my work schedule, but I am available before or after. For boarding, I can accept crate/pen trained dogs and I come home on break midday for walks and treats. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I work Monday through Friday 8-4, but I'm free all day after and anytime on the weekends. I am also happy to pop in during my work day on lunch breaks. I'm flexible and can accommodate you and your pets' needs! I provide structure, care, love, and frequent walks for my dog and will treat yours the same way. I also love taking him on adventures to parks throughout Erie.
About: I've always been an animal lover and have spent years caring for pets for family, friends, neighbors, and my dad's clients. Being the person people trust with their pets is something I take seriously and truly enjoy. I love getting to know each pet's personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, cat care, or house sitting, I treat every pet like part of the family. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Right now, I have an open and flexible schedule while I’m looking for work, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I offer dependable, detail-oriented pet care for dogs, cats, and small animals such as rabbits, reptiles, and fish. My approach is centered on consistency, safety, and comfort following each pet’s routine closely while providing calm, attentive care. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, walks, or companionship, I make sure every pet feels relaxed, respected, and cared for like family.
“Niku is great!! She helped me out when i needed a last minute dog sitter and was very responsive, even with it being her birthday weekend. She was very punctual and communicative during her stay and I came home to a happy dog. I would definitely recommend Niku to other dog owners :)”
About: I’ll provide take their pet(s) on a 30 minute walk. Allow their pet(s) to get enough exercise. Provide food and water. I’ll also bathe their pet(s) if needed. I have open availability on weekends and sometimes during the weekdays. I really don’t have any special skills. I’m willing to get to know more about your pet(s). The only pet care experience that I have is from learning things about my own pet. I haven’t really pet sat in a while. I’m willing to learn more by pet sitting your pet(s). I look forward to meeting your pet(s) so that I can gain more experience. I understand that all dogs are not all the same which is why I would love to get more experience. It would help me learn more about your pet(s) and it’s needs.
About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to senior cats who just want quiet company. Whether it’s giving meds, sticking to a routine, or just knowing when they need extra love, I bring patience, experience, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Feel free to message about anything or other animals!! I work part-time and am usually free most days from morning until 5, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need. When your pet’s with me, they’re not just being looked after — they’re cared for like family. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just good company, I’m here to keep tails wagging and your mind at ease. I treat your home with the same respect I give your pet — clean, secure, and just the way you left it.
About: Hello, my name is Tammy! I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was a child. Pet parents have trusted me to care for their homes and pets for years. I also have experience volunteering at local shelters and rescues. I've cared for many animals from predatory birds, farm animals, to cats, specialty animals, and zoo animals too. I'm currently working on certifications to better my pet care abilities. I'm happy to clean up your home and do all the extras when it comes to housesitting. I genuinely enjoy helping people and pets. I'm devoted to making sure your pets/home are well cared for so you and your fur kiddos can have a stress free time.

I can follow any instructions needed for them and your home. I love meeting new creatures and my goal is to be sure that you don't have to worry about a thing while you're gone.
“AWESOME!!!!! I wish there were more stars than just 5. Danielle was amazing. She took great care of my furbabies and my home. She did more than I expected and sent updates with photos. I was nervous having someone I did not know in my home with my pets for 3 nights, but Danielle took care of my pets and home as if they were her own. She even striped the bed she used, washed the bedding and remade the bed, she took out the garbage and washed and put away the dishes. Completely unexpected, but greatly appreciated. She made my long weekend away much more enjoyable because I knew everything was in good hands with Danielle. She is a God Sent and a True Blessing. In case you cannot tell, I highly recommend her!!!!”

Victoria did a meet and greet with us and our dog, Jackson. She took wonderful care of him while we were away. Jackson was very happy to be with her. Victoria sent pictures to us. Victoria is the best! I highly recommend her pet sitting services to other dog and cat owners.
Angelina and Sam stayed at our house this past weekend to take care of our three needy dogs. I had never done anything like this before and I was very anxious. They came to meet with us about two weeks prior and I was immediately put at ease. They are the sweetest couple and our dogs took to them immediately. As soon as I knew that they had arrived and got in the house, I did not worry again all weekend. They openly communicated with me and sent me photos every day. In a couple of the pictures I was even wondering if the dogs missed us!! When we returned home, the house was immaculate. They will definitely be my go to in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Westminster
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Westminster on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 99 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
