“Extremely impressed with Maria taking care of my cat. My cat is newly rescued and very scared of people. While I was away my cat found some places I didn't even know were possible to hide that were probably not very safe for a cat. Maria went out of her way to get my cat out, and prevent her from going back. By the end of the week my cat was even opening up a bit towards her.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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 have cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I am dependable, attentive, and passionate about animal care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so I have a lot of free time. Why not spend time with furry friends! It’s also a great opportunity to take a breather and get fresh air during daily dog walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure that their daily routines are maintained to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure the home remains clean and secure while providing pets with plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environment while their owners are away.
“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!”
“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.”
“Samantha was very communicative and took adorable pictures of our pup. She also was kind enough to come and meet our special needs girl before the first drop in. I highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“Patrícia was great! It was our first time having a rover sitter in our new house so our cat was a little scared but Patrícia handled it well. We absolutely trust her with our pet and property! Thanks!”
“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.”
“This is our first Rover experience and it went very well. Christyna looked after our cat for a week. She helped brush our cat’s teeth, wrote up detailed Rover card, and took good pictures. Will definitely rebook if we are out of town again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Westport on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,898 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westport. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
