About: I have both personal and professional experience working with dogs. I currently work at a dog daycare and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pet. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while providing owners with peace of mind. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or a more relaxed pace, I tailor each visit to their individual needs. Safety is my top priority. I am attentive during walks, aware of my surroundings, and always take extra precautions in busy or high-traffic areas. I also understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive interactions when working with dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and providing reliable care you can feel confident about. I currently work a part time job at a dog daycare. My schedule varies from week to week but I have days off on both weekdays and weekends and can work around my shifts as well. Im very safety conscious; as a dog owner I understand how vital it is for me to be aware of our surroundings. I use a leash at all times and take extra precautions in high traffic areas.
About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was a teenager, and over the years I've built up real hands-on experience through dog sitting and walking for my family, neighbors, and friends. That's ranged from quick drop-in visits and walks to week-long stays in their homes. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and take pride in keeping them comfortable, active, and cared for. I'm currently between jobs and actively job searching, which means my days are genuinely flexible. I can build my schedule around your dog's routine rather than the other way around, so feeding times, walks, and bedtime stay as close to normal as possible. The safety and comfort of every pet in my care is my top priority. I follow your routines and instructions closely to keep things consistent for your dog. I send regular photo and text updates so you always know your dog is happy and in good hands.
“Katherine was quick to respond and thoughtful to meet my dog prior to hire. She was caring and also knowledgeable. My dog warmed up to her. She was on time and communication was great.”
“Abby is always so happy to see Jennifer when she comes by - her tail doesn’t stop wagging. I love knowing that Abby is getting taken care of when I’m not around. Jennifer is reliable and timely and takes Abby for a nice, long walk. I trust that Abby is in good hands.”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, I've had a dog for 11 years, so I understand firsthand what it means to care for a pet like family. I have hands-on experience with dog sitting and walking, and I'm comfortable with daily routines, exercise needs, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in any environment. Your dog will always be in caring, attentive hands! I work part-time, which means I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week to give dogs the time and attention they deserve. Whether it's weekday walks or weekend sitting, I'm available, your pet always comes first. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is keeping things consistent and stress-free for your dog. I follow your established routines: feeding schedules, walk times, and any house rules, so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their own space. I treat every client's home with respect, ensure doors and gates are always secure, and provide updates and photos so you always know your pup is happy and safe.
About: I speak Spanish, so feel free to communicate however is better for you! I have personally helped my family and friends with pet sitting since I was a kid. I’ve been scooping poop and petting animals for a long time. I love to be active and can easily adapt if your pet doesn’t. My availability is completely flexible and open to fit your needs! I can be up as early as you need or as late! I currently live with a dog so it is like first nature to provide for your pet’s needs :) As someone who loves animals and also children, certain safety precautions are necessary in my mind. I, also, love to update and share pictures with parents who miss their babies!
About: I’ve taken care of pit bulls, golden retrievers, and tabby cats! Entrusted by friends and family with their pets, I’ve learned that I have a great affinity for animals (maybe more than I do for people) I currently work evenings at a restaurant, and I’m searching for daytime employment as we speak. In the meantime, I’m open to daytime supervision of animals as well as overnights after work. I have a fenced-in yard and a very docile and friendly golden retriever. She’s 11 and gets along with every animal she meets. When taking care of a pet at client’s homes, I prioritize leaving it in the same or better condition than I found it.
About: With over 30 years of experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, and fish, I’ve dedicated much of my life to making sure animals are happy, healthy, and loved. From playful puppies to senior cats, energetic birds to peaceful aquariums, I understand that every pet has unique needs and a personality all their own. I’ve also spent years volunteering at animal shelters, giving my time and heart to animals in need. Those experiences taught me patience, compassion, and how to quickly build trust with pets of all temperaments. Whether it’s long walks, cuddle time, feeding, administering medications, or just providing a calm presence, I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pets feel safe and cared for, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I retired from my corporate career in high level accounting and finance roles. Now I am focused on spending my time doing things I love. I love animals! So, my schedule is very flexible. I have a fenced in yard and a walkable neighborhood. I also have a mature female dog who is calm and friendly. I believe in making my guest feel welcome and loved.
About: Whether you need a simple walk, overnight care, or more specialized services (like drop-in visits for feeding and playtime), I offer a variety of flexible options to fit your dog’s routine and your schedule. I know how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see your dog enjoying their time, knowing they're in great hands. I currently have a rather flexible schedule because I only work freelance so I can make plenty of time for your pets and their needs. When I care for pets at your home, I make sure to stick to your pet's usual schedule—whether that’s feeding, walking, or playtime. This routine consistency helps reduce stress and keeps them comfortable in their familiar environment.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Westport. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Westport.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westport. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
