About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and grew up with everything from Yorkies to German Shepherds and Goldens. I’ve also cared for dogs on and off since I was 18, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom and, unfortunately, this just isn’t the right time for our family to have a dog of our own. Rover gives me a chance to get some much-needed dog time while giving someone else’s pup a little extra love and attention—which, for me, is a pretty great trade! I really try to meet each dog where they are. If your pup wants a friend to play with, I’m happy to play. If they’re older, shy, or just happiest with some calm company and a good belly rub, I’m equally happy doing that. I pay close attention to behavior and will always communicate if I notice even a subtle change that I think you should know about. I also believe you know your dog better than anyone. I’ll respect your routines, rules, training, and preferences and care for your dog the way you’ve asked me to—not the way I think it should be done. Safety always comes first. Dogs stay securely leashed with me, I avoid interactions with other dogs unless you’ve specifically told me otherwise, keep an eye on what they’re getting into, avoid hot pavement, and double-check doors and gates. I do ask that any history of aggression be shared with me so I can keep both your dog and myself safe. I’m home during the day and have flexible availability for early-morning walks (even before 7!), daytime visits while you’re at work, and evenings. And fair warning: if you’re the kind of dog parent who loves getting pictures, you’ve found the right person. I will happily take a million. 😊 EM As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is fairly flexible and pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m available for early-morning walks (including before 7 a.m.), daytime walks and drop-ins while you’re at work, and evening visits. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, so getting outside for a walk or stopping in to give a pup some attention is something I look forward to—not just another task on my schedule. Your pet’s safety and your trust are my top priorities. In your home, I’ll always respect your routines, rules, and instructions—you know your pet best, and I believe their care should stay as familiar and consistent as possible. I’m very safety-conscious. I double-check doors and gates, keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid interactions with other dogs unless you’ve specifically told me otherwise, and pay close attention to my surroundings and to your dog’s behavior. I’m also careful about things like hot pavement and anything they may try to pick up along the way. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet with patience and genuine kindness. Whether they want to play and burn off some energy or just need calm company, affection, and a belly rub, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’ll also keep you updated and let you know if I notice anything unusual—even a small change in behavior.
“Tara was fantastic! She doted on our kitties while we were out of town. She was available last minute & very flexible. I would highly recommend Tara for any cat-sitting needs!”
“Yiting has been so great as a cat sitter. She shares lots of updates about how the cats are doing and whether they're eating. We get tons of photos of our cats and videos, which is super reassuring.”
“My cat Hannah was well taken care of and in good hands while I was away! Lisa gave great drop-in visits and left Rover cards to keep me updated. Thanks for a reliable service!”
About: I have been regularly pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors and family members since I was 13 years old, and have been relied on to make sure their animals are fed, provided with the proper medications, and routinely exercised. I have significant experience with taking care of dogs of all sizes, from Shih Tzus to Bull Mastiffs! I have a great amount of experience with taking care of cats as well! Lastly, I grew up with and took care of the most gorgeous Lab-Shephard mix! I am a young professional in Arlington who works a hybrid schedule, and have availability on weekends and my remote days to help you out with your pet care needs! I truly love being around dogs, and will prioritize making time for their well-being between my personal responsibilities. I will provide your pet with the greatest care possible while they are kept in the comfort of their own home, while treating your space with the utmost respect!
“Korrey was amazing with my. He kept me up to date with everything. He is definitely passionate about animals. It’s the small things like him getting poop bags after I forgot to leave them out. Will definitely call him next time I am out of town.”
“Kaiyue was an excellent cat sitter to our kitties! She was so communicative and on time so we never worried and sent so many pictures - if you’re wondering if you should book her, if she’s free, you should !!”
About: As a proud owner of an adorable Yorkie, I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your dog like family. I have hands-on experience caring for my own 10 pound pup and feel especially comfortable caring yours. Whether your dog enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I strive to make them feel safe, happy and loved. I’m happy to follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, exercise and daily routines to ensure your furry friend receives attentive, personalized care. I work a hybrid schedule during the week, which gives me the flexibility to coordinate pet care around my workday. I’m available for dog walking, dog sitting, and house sitting, and I enjoy making time for animals to receive companionship and attention they deserve. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise and affection and maintaining familiar routines. I would be proactive in communicating with you to coordinate expectations as well as ensuring that I provide dependable care while you are away. As a Yorkie parent, I understand the importance of patience, compassion and attentive care. My own dog experienced separation anxiety, so I prioritize quality time, regular meals, exercise and helping him feel safe and helping him feel safe and comfortable. I provide gentle, loving attention, follow their routines, and make their well-being is my priority. I want every furry friend to feel secure, cared for, and loved while their family is away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westover
Renee was an amazing sitter to my cat charlotte! She was able to meet her needs and give her adequate playtime and attention during her visits. She was extremely responsive and communicative throughout the stay. I felt like my fur baby was in good hands! Additionally, my cat had a couple messes outside the litter box during the pet sitting period uuthat Renee managed to clean and I really appreciated this extra effort and help on her part! Would highly recommend and book again in a heartbeat
Mitzi is a fantastic cat sitter. She came to the house a few days prior to my 7-day trip away. Met my cat (a ragdoll) and got to know her and her likes/dislikes. She sent me pictures and updates daily which was very sweet and great to hear the feedback. When I got home my cat who usually gets very upset with me for leaving (sitting with her back towards me and yelling loudly) didn’t do any of that. I think it’s because she liked Mitzi. Highly recommend Mitzi.
Stacy was wonderful! She took such great care of Louie while we were away, and it was such a relief knowing he was in kind, capable hands. She was reliable, thoughtful, and attentive to his needs, and I really appreciated the care she put into looking after him. It’s not always easy leaving your pet behind, but Stacy made the whole experience so much easier. Louie was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Vivian. She was extremely dependable, followed Sebastian's routine, and kept me updated so I never had to worry. Sebastian was happy and relaxed when I got home. It’s such a relief finding someone you can trust completely. Plus she lives close by!!!—10/10!
Brittany was so wonderful with Daisy. Daisy is very nervous about strangers entering the house, but Brittany was a pro and knew all the tricks to put our pup at ease. She was able to get Daisy to go for a walk with her, and do some backyard play. I can see why Brittany is a star sitter, and look forward to having her hang with Daisy again!
Another wonderful experience! We have used her several times now, and she continues to be absolutely fantastic with Ollie. This weekend, she was incredibly accommodating with our schedule, making multiple drop-in visits to ensure Ollie was well cared for while we were away. It's such a relief knowing he's in great hands, and we truly appreciate the time, attention, and care she gives him. We couldn't recommend her more highly and will absolutely continue booking with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westover is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 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 16,185 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westover. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westover. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
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.
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.
