“Enjoyed having Valeria check in on our pups. She is very communicative and made me and my husband feel better having someone check in on them. We look forward to continuing to rebook her for all future visits.”
“I use Tatiana regularly to care for my kitty Bella. Recently I had to be away for 2 weeks. Bella loves Tatiana and was relaxed and happy the whole time I was gone. Tatiana goes above and beyond to ensure I have peace of mind when I have to be away and to be sure Bella has everything she needs!”
“A fantastic relationship through and through. Kim is extremely responsive to communications. Her interaction with my little dog Fred - who is very shy and tentative with new people - was great. She reassured me during my trip that Fred was doing well and interacted with Kim very well. I am grateful for the sitting / home visits Kim provided. I would not hesitate to use Kim in the future.”
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.
“Devora did a great job watching our new rescue puppy for a week while we were away. We are still in training mode and Devora helped a great deal in getting closer to our goal. We highly recommend Devora for your pet sitting needs.”
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.
“Jocelyn did a fantastic job with drop in visits for our cats Cacio and Pepe. She covered all their basic needs and favorite things on each visit. She even cleaned up when one of our cats got sick. Loved receiving photos each time she finished a check in! Would definitely book again in a heartbeat.”
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.
“Dani is great -- my dog loves her! She's communicative, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs. She takes great care and even sent me a photo of something she noticed on my dog, which I truly appreciated. I can relax knowing my dog is in great hands with Dani!”
About: I've had 3 cats and 2 dogs. My current dog is 13. They've all lived a long, happy life. I would be happy to share my love with animals other than my own. Working part-time allows me time to spend with my dog as well as others. I can accomodate any time Monday-Thursday and limited times Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Whether for the work day or a vacation, I understand that it is stressful to leave your animal alone. I will treat your pets and home as if they were my own. Let's chat to see if we are a good fit.
“Kris and Angelica checked in on our senior cat and leachie gecko while we were away for our wedding weekend. They took great care of both pets and even generously left us a gift and card for our wedding! Thank you both again!”
“Pam was so great with our two kitties while we were away. She was on time every day and we truly appreciated the extra steps she took like vacuuming and offering to take out the trash. Would definitely book again. Thanks!”
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!
“Hillary was great at handling all my questions since the day I was leaving my cat started having issues with his eye. She followed my snack and medicine request perfectly and made sure everything in the house was secure before she left. Both cats were happy and well taken care of.”
“Kevin and Ana came exactly when they said, walked my dogs and dried them off from the rain, and were very communicative. When my new address was not updated in the system and they ended up at my old address, they contacted me right away and without hesitation went to my new address 20 minutes away. I will definitely get in touch again when I need a dog walker and sitter!”
“Kim is wonderful —very reliable and caring. She always arrived on time and took great care of my pet. She even helped bring in my packages, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend her and book again.”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Westport on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,930 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Westport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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 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.
