I truly believe that dogs are family, and they deserve to be treated with love, patience, kindness, and respect. I am also a proud dog mom to Apolo, my sweet Chihuahua, who has taught me even more about the importance of attention, affection, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your furry family member. My goal is to provide a loving, comfortable, and safe environment where every dog feels welcomed, happy, and cared for.

About: Having grown up with dogs my entire life and currently caring for 10 rescues of my own, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve cared for large, active breeds such as German Shepherds and Labrador Retrievers, as well as Bluetick Coonhounds and mixed breeds. I’m familiar with the different needs of energetic working breeds, playful retrievers, and scent-driven hounds that love to explore on walks. I’ve also gained valuable experience caring for rescue dogs, including those who may be nervous, shy, or still adjusting to new environments. I understand that some dogs need extra patience and reassurance, while others require plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. My experience includes caring for energetic puppies, maintaining consistent feeding and walking schedules, reinforcing basic routines, and providing extra attention to older dogs who may need a slower pace. What sets me apart is that caring for multiple dogs with different personalities and needs is already part of my daily life. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they receive individualized care, attention, and affection! Caring for dogs and cats is already a big part of my everyday routine! With 10 rescue dogs of my own, I’m very familiar with balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure every dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Fairfield County and am happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, an energetic walk, some playtime, or extra companionship while you’re away, I’m here to help! I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routines as familiar and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! Having experience with multiple rescue dogs has taught me the importance of understanding different personalities, recognizing body language, and respecting each dog’s individual boundaries. When caring for pets in your home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routines, including feeding instructions, walking preferences, and any specific care needs. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may be nervous around new people, reactive to other dogs, or easily overstimulated in unfamiliar situations. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes and harnesses fit properly, and walks are appropriate for your dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away!
“Caitlin is a wonderful sitter! She sends great updates and really cares about making sure that our cat is well loved and well fed. She also goes above and beyond taking care of our garden and other house-related things like taking in mail, putting out trash, etc. We have used her twice now and can’t recommend her highly enough.”

About: Growing up with cats and various household pets, and loving dogs all my life has lead me to care and appreciate pets into my adult life.

On Fridays and weekends I am also available for over night care as needed. In your home I will abide by all rules and routines you may have already. I can also ensure consistent care and attention to your pet’s needs.
About: Im comfortable working with friendly dogs of different ages, including puppies who need extra attention and older dogs who may need a slower, more gentle approach. Plus, my dog is very friendly and enjoys the company, which can help other dogs feel more comfortable and social. I've always loved being around animals, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Whether it's walks, sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I'll keep you updated with messages and photos while you're away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. I care for pets in both my home and my client’s home, depending on the service. I make sure they have a safe, clean space, follow their feeding and walking routines, and give them plenty of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep their pet comfortable and cared for.
“We are so thankful to have found Alexis! When we first met her, she instantly put our minds at ease. She is punctual, communicative, and responsible. She stayed at our house with our dog for a week and took wonderful care of both our dog and our home. We got updates and pictures daily and quick responses to our texts. With Alexis watching our dog, we were able to have a worry-free vacation!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by different types of animals my whole life! No breed is too big or too small, I love them all.

Charlotte was great! So dependable and easy going letting out our precious Pomeranian who is anything but easy going. Charlotte persisted to earn her trust and slowly Poppy warmed up. We will absolutely use Charlotte again. We feel very lucky to have come across her wonderful Pet Sitting Services.
I can’t recommend her enough! As a first-time dog sitter user, I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so easy and stress free. She’s kind, caring, and trustworthy. Benny is a huge fan too, which says it all! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westport is $25 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 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 4,814 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westport. 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 Westport. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 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.
