“Caitlin O was the perfect drop in cat sitter for us. She displays a personable warm animal loving personality. We were most impressed by her “cat whisperer” skills as our 2 shy rescue kitties warmed up to her very quickly by the second visit! Highly recommend her!! She was very attentive to socializing with them both, giving them outdoor time in their cat condo, food, water & litter box duty. She provided lots of pics & videos too. We have already scheduled her for the next time. Thank-you Caitlin for your loving kindness & care for animals. We appreciate you ♥️”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and making sure they get the best care. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, and small pets. I’m comfortable with any animal!

I have 6 cats and 2 guinea pigs that I take care of in my home. They all get fed daily and cleaned up after.
“Lauren is very sweet and personable with my both my boys and is understanding of my needs as well. I have one love bug and one wild child and she handles them both perfectly by letting them out to play and potty but recognizes when they’re too hot and will rub bellies on the couch to keep them company. I will be using Lauren weekly from now on which is of great help with my hectic schedule. It’s been so comforting knowing my boys aren’t left home alone too long and that my home is in good hands while she’s here <3”
“Sydney was a great help to us on our trip!! She came and did a meet and greet first. She’s super sweet, attentive and showed our furbabies lots of love while we were gone. Highly recommend! Will book again!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 walking neighborhood dogs. I have three cats at home and I have owned a dog before! I love pets, and love seeing a happy pet!! I am currently a full time student athlete, but have a very flexible schedule. I am totally willing to spend nights with pets and even just stop by for a walk here and there! I am still living in a dorm styled housing, so taking pegs in my home will not yet be an option. Although I’m sure if I had to walk the pet over, there are sooo many people that would love to give some love that are missing their pets at home!!
“Darshan was very attentive, timely and extremely caring with my two senior cats- one of whom requires daily meds. He administered the meds easily and my cat wasn’t any wiser and for my slightly younger cat who loves a good play session Darshan took the time to get in some great hunting. Both cats took to Darshan really well and I felt very safe knowing they were in his care. Will rebook again. 5 out of 5 stars!”
“Laurel is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Waylon. She communicated with us at each visit and sent pictures. Waylon is going to miss her and all the attention she gives! We would recommend Laurel to any pet owner!”
“Latrice went above and beyond. Truly. I appreciate all the sweet pics she sent of Dolly while i was gone along with updates:) my condo has a keyfob only entry and her flexibility in meeting me after a late flight home to drop keys was so incredibly kind and appreciated on my end. Dolly very much enjoyed being in Latrice’s care and ill absolutely be booking Latrice again the next time I’m out of town:)”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Westport
Ashley was very communicative and timely! If she was running late she was sure to let us know well ahead of time. Always sent pictures and assured us things were in place, the door locked, and the pets happy! Even with plans changing she was flexible and awesome.
Suzy has been absolutely wonderful with our fur babies, and we’ve been using her for over a year now. She truly knows them, their routines, and their personalities, and it shows in the way she cares for them. She’s always on time and sends thoughtful, detailed updates with photos after each visit, which gives us complete peace of mind. We trust her completely with our pets and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Westport is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $26 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 721 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Westport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
