“Jay was a great sitter! She took excellent care of Nane and our house. We came home to a happy, relaxed and content pup, got the cutest video, dishes were done (thank you Jay!!), and she left us delicious treats (thank you again!!). I definitely recommend Jay!”
“Kylie was great with my pup. She was consistent with her care and communication while she stayed in our home for a week and watched our baby. I would definitely use her services in the future.”
“We are so thankful for Nicole! Thanks to Nicole, we felt comfortable leaving our pup for a night with no worries. Seeing that she is able to watch dogs with special needs, we need she would be the right fit for our pup, who can tend to have some behavioral issues at times. She was able to come meet him beforehand and go over everything she would need to know to watch him. She sent us updates, including pictures and videos, and did such a wonderful job. We will absolutely book with Nicole again for any future dog sitting needs!”

Highly recommend Danielle! 🐾💕”

“This was my first experience with Rover. Carissa was better than I could have hoped for in caring for my dogs! The pictures she sent helped me adjust to being separated from them and they certainly looked happy!”
“David was wonderful with our anxious dog while we were away at a wedding. So good in fact that she appeared to lose her anxiety issues all together. He is clearly very experienced with animals and they are very receptive to him. He knew exactly how to work with her to lower her anxiety levels throughout a long stay. We are so grateful to have found someone like him for our dog!”

“Vincent was amazing with my two pitties - he kept me updated throughout the day with photos and notes on how they were doing. I get a little anxious leaving them overnight, but he was great to work with and put my mind at ease. My dogs can be a little leash reactive and one of them gets a shot every other day on top of a few other medications, but he was able to handle all of that no problem. I definitely recommend him and will be booking with him in the future!”
“Jesse did an overnight pet sitting service for our 2 1/2 yr old doberman, while my husband and I went out of town. We recommend Jesse's services! Our dog Zeus quickly took to him, and he was dependable and attentive to our dog needs, and we will definitely request his services again.”

About: I have cared for so many types of dogs since I was a kid. From little Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to Pitbulls and Rottweilers. I absolutely love them all! I love taking dogs on long walks and providing a lot of play time. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs, dogs with heart conditions, dogs that needed medications administered, and more. I currently work in a local elementary school, I have a big heart for humans and animals ♥️. I love to fill my weekends and summers providing safe, and comfortable pet care. I’m currently available all summer!!! I am very respectful of my clients wishes when it comes to their pets as I know that they are a part of the family! I will happily follow any schedule or routine wanted by my clients. I will always ensure safety during walks and play time. I make sure to communicate a lot and send plenty of photos and videos.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I love animals of all kinds and as a pet owner know how important pets are to the family and how stressful it can be when being away from them! I work remotely full time 7:30-3:00pm (End of August-mid June). I have time for short breaks/walks for pets during these working hours and evenings after work for lots of play time, walks, etc. I will follow your schedule and routines as you would if you were home with your pets to the best of my ability. I like to know what your typical schedule and pets needs are.
About: With over 5 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From daily walks and playtime to administering medication and providing specialized care, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy—whether it’s a quick walk around the block or an extended stay. Consistent, compassionate care is at the heart of everything I do. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I structure my days around walk schedules, feeding times, and play sessions to ensure each pet receives consistent, personalized attention. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure every pet I care for feels loved and well looked after. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and feel at ease. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, medication needs, walks, and playtime—to make sure they feel right at home.
About: For nearly 20years I’ve been caring for animals of all types. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Reptiles, and just about everything in between. Family, Friends, Neighbors, Co-Workers and Clients have relied on me to care for their furry family members & I’ve had furry family members of my own my whole life. I have worked with all ages and sizes, and am comfortable with pets with disabilities or medical needs. For the past 16years I’ve cared for people with disabilities as a Direct Support Professional. I am currently doing that as a part-time night shift, so I am available most days and eves, during the week and on weekends! I have loved many forms of my own pets and understand the importance of safety and trust that comes with caring for another’s loved one. I currently plan to do pet walking, play dates, and sitting in your home. May consider overnight stays. May consider boarding on case by case basis. Always open for requests, and again, will consider on a case by case basis.
About: I truly love animals and treat every pet like part of the family. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter and have cared for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, reptiles, bunnies, and pets that require medication. Since I work remotely, I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’ll send you as many pics as you’d like :) Since I work remotely, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Walks are already a regular part of my schedule, and I’m available throughout the day for feeding, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions. Whether they’re in my home or theirs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, with plenty of attention and updates for their owner!
About: I have cared for many different breeds, even birds! I am well versed on the differences all dogs hold. I enjoy playful dogs, as well as the pups that just want to be lazy. I work Monday-Friday full time. Weekends are typically better suited but I am flexible! I typically work 8-4. Also available for simple drop ins or walks! I have handled dogs that are crated, free roaming. I have also cared for dogs with special needs and ones that take medication! No dog is too much to me!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westover
Karl was fantastic! Very responsive and punctual. Great at providing updates. Most importantly he was patient with my one dog that likes to comes across as tough initially but is really very sweet. All animals loved him and sounds like they had a great time hanging out and getting spoiled. He was also very accommodating of our weird hour request. Will definitely be seeking Karl’s service again and highly recommend.
Jesse did an overnight pet sitting service for our 2 1/2 yr old doberman, while my husband and I went out of town. We recommend Jesse's services! Our dog Zeus quickly took to him, and he was dependable and attentive to our dog needs, and we will definitely request his services again.
Taylor is an incredible pet sitter and we felt like our dogs were safe, well taken care of, and loved while we were away. She sent us many updates as we requested and we felt like we could really enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were in good hands. Taylor even helped us in a pinch when we had to come home a day later than expexted. I'd recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a dog/house sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Westover
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Westover on Rover is $46.28 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 116 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Westover. 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 Westover 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 Westover 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 Westover 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 with handling special pet needs in Westover. On Rover:
- 70% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% 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.
