“There’s nothing better than coming home to your dog after a long trip especially when he’s calm and relaxed because he was well taken care of. Juan allowed me this joy. It was the first time I’ve used him and Romeo took to him right away. Juan updated me daily and was responsive to messages. He also left my house in great condition. Thank you for taking care of my baby. We’ll be seeing you again!!”
“Korrey did such a good job with our dog. He focused on putting her at ease, and prioritized her comfort and keeping her on schedule. We really appreciated that Korrey was so communicative with issues and questions. We came home to a happy dog and a pristine house, so we'd gladly work with Korrey again!”
“Claudia was extremely generous with her time on short notice to watch my high-energy pup. She was extremely communicative, and went above and beyond to check in with updates and activities. I came home to a very content dog! Book with confidence.”
“Kaye is wonderful with our dog. She’s very good at communicating and is very responsive. I would highly recommend Kaye for best services for your dog and needs. Thanks so much again.”
“Hannah did a great job watching my dog! She provided multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and helped give my dog his medicine. I would recommend Hannah and will book her for overnight stays again!”
“Andrea is a great house/dogsitter. I booked her for the first time last weekend. She was very responsive and we had a very constructive meet and greet, during which she asked many questions and took copious notes. Andrea reached out to me—without prompting—before she arrived the day of her sitting, to confirm she was coming and what time she’d be there, which placed me at ease. During her stay, Andrea gave me appropriate status checks, including when she left. She left the house in great shape. I would definitely recommend Andrea for house sitting and intend to use her again soon.”
“Kyle was awesome – he took great care of our dog Maya and gave plenty of updates. He also dealt with some unexpected issues with our home, and even helped coordinate building maintenance to start on repairs. We'll absolutely use Kyle as a sitter again.”
“Extremely professional and very quick to bond with my fur babies. She was fortunately able to watch my animals on very short notice. House was left in pristine condition. I received great updates and pictures/videos. I would absolutely hire Kayla again!”
“Liliana was great with jeter! Super communicative and he was very comfortable with her. We could tell jeter was well taken care of and definitely would recommend her as a rover!”
“Renee was extremely attentive, caring, and thoughtful with our crew! She even managed to get some liquid meds in our old grumpy cat without much fuss! She is very responsive and we felt great on vacation knowing they were in such capable hands.”
“Daniel took such great care of our 2 dogs while we were away! He was very communicative, competent and super sweet to our pups. We would definitely recommend his services!”
“Tanay was great with our dog! Marshal warmed up to him really quickly and was even snuggling with him on the couch on day 2 and he’s not a super snuggly dog. Tanay’s easy going nature helped put me and my fiancé at ease with leaving him with someone other than family for the first time. He sent us pics and updates most days we were gone and made sure to text us with any questions he had. I would definitely recommend Tanay for house and pet sitting.”
“Aaron was absolutely fantastic! Our boy seemed to love him and we were not worried at all while we were away. He left our home the same as it was when we left! Will definitely be using him again!”
“Hillary was an incredible pet sitter for our dog, cat, and kitten! We booked without a ton of time in advance and she quickly confirmed and came over for a meet and greet. She was communicative with us while we were gone and it seems like the pets had a great time! I’d highly recommend booking with her.”
“Andrea did an amazing job looking after Rudy. She was super attentive, caring, and provided lots of updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Flavio was great - he communicated throughout his stay, took good care of my dogs, and left the house in good shape. I would definitely book with him again and recommend him.”

Another great experience with Vivian. She is so responsive and wonderful with her communications and updates and respectful of our pets and home. We are so lucky to have found her and look forward to having her back next time we go away (and will likely plan our future trips around making sure she's available - it makes such a difference to know our pets are in good hands when we are gone!)
Anya is truly a 5-star sitter. She was so attentive with my senior pup, Wetzel! She made sure he felt safe and comfortable, and even cracked the code on getting him to take his critical heart meds! Wetzel ate well, slept soundly, and got along so well with her sweet dog, Watson—two old boys hanging out. To top it all off, she gave me the sweetest wallet-sized Polaroid of Wetzel when I picked him up. I couldn't ask for a better sitter!
Joanna was wonderful! We were able to do a phone call before the stay, and she arrived early for the stay so that we could walk through our pets’ routines! She was friendly, provided lots of updates, and took excellent care of our cat and dog. We were lucky to have her stay with our pets in our home and look forward to having her again!
Mimosa was a wonderful overnight sitter for our sweet dog, Gigi. We were so relieved to know Gigi was in excellent hands while we were on our trip. Mimosa showed up on time every evening, was very communicative via text to update us how Gigi was doing, and sent us pictures as well. She fed and walked Gigi exactly as we instructed. Gigi is mostly blind and so she needs a bit of extra care which Mimosa delivered with kindness and patience. I would definitely work with Mimosa again and highly recommend her for overnight dog care.
Excellent experience having Ajia watch Rosa at our place. She took great care of our dog; playing with her, taking her on walks, giving her meds, and sending lots of pictures. She left our house spotless, and gave us a daily summary of how Rosa was doing. Highly recommend her for any pet needs!
Anna was absolutely wonderful with Rufus! She cared for him with so much love and attention, and it was clear he was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for while we were away. She gave him lots of cuddles, took him on great walks, and kept us updated throughout her stay with plenty of pictures and messages. We would absolutely recommend Anna and would happily have her watch Rufus again!
I have a very fussy border collie who requires a lot of care, love, and exercise. Chloe immediately bonded with Lou and kept me up to speed on how Lou was doing while she stayed w Lou for an overnight. (She also took complicated directions on where to take Lou to get her a lot of exercise.) I feel tremendously comfortable with her taking care of Lou and staying at my house for an overnight. Highly recommend Chloe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Westover is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $100 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 10,114 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
