About: We both work from home, fenced in yard, and live on cul-de-sac street. We are not looking to be a kennel so we only allow one additional dog (to our two) so we can give your dog our full attention! There is a dog play area in the neighborhood and lots of sidewalks for regular walks. We have two older children (15 and 16) that have been taught how to be a pack leader so they know how to act around dogs. We have many years of experience watching and caring for dogs and we have met so many amazing dogs and owners through this process. We are still friends with many of them! We are not a kennel but rather a friendly service for a very small number of dogs & their owners who need a short term home for their friend while they are away. This way we can provide maximum attention to each of our furry guests :) All dogs accepted must be kid friendly and fully house trained! We live in an HOA community so no barkers please :) A portion of our proceeds are donated to Project Halo (helping neglected / unwanted dogs find loving homes).
“My pup had the best time with Nancy, Coffee & family. The fenced in yard was great for her to run around off leash & I felt very comfortable leaving Winnie in Nancy’s care. Winnie played fetch & even received a special treat. Nancy’s family is very friendly & Winnie is excited about her next visit!! Well.. after her long nap! Haha.”
About: I have always had an innate love for animals! Starting at a young age I have always been around dogs, cats, and horses. I have trained many animals and am known among friends and family as the animal whisperer! I currently have two fur-babies, Blue and Barley. They are both spoiled rotten! Both are treated like family and have a pretty paw-some pet life! They both go pretty much everywhere with me and love people and other animals. They are full of energy and are provided play time, training, and multiple walks per day. Blue was rescued from a bad situation at a young age and is my little sweetie. Blue likes to talk (hunting breed, so he has that bay) and loves to play- he is also very good at moderating his play based on the size and energy level of his playmates. Barley came to us a very young age and has been worked with since day one. He is the friendliest gentleman and tends to go everywhere with us. He likes to hold your hand and cuddle and is basically like a little human! I truly care about animals and will go above and beyond to provide the best care to them. If your dogs are trusted with me, they will get nothing but the best! My schedule is very flexible and I’m home a lot of the time. If your pet is here with us, we try to stay home as much as possible and offer frequent outside breaks, playtime, and cuddle time. I have two very friendly dogs of my own- they love to play and are pretty good at adjusting their play behavior to their playmates. I’m happy to accommodate your pet's needs in any way I can. I want them to feel like you never left. I’m also happy to help with training, crate training, leash walking, etc. I often work with pet parents to make sure all behavior expected with them is reinforced during my visits. I like to learn what their day typically looks like and help to parallel that while you're away to limit their stress and anxiety.
About: I have taken care of pets in a wide variety including special needs & disabilities of all ages. Maintain extensive responsibilities for the smallest pets to horses over 1,000 lbs. You can depend on me to exercise, bathe & feed their family pets as well as transport when need be. We can set up a meet & greet at your convenience! I can accept last minute bookings whether you need short term or long term. I’m happy to help any way your pets need to thrive! I have an open floor plan, fenced in backyard, security cameras, and friendly neighbors with dogs of their own. Every dog is well behaved, and gets along nicely with my girls.
“My Winston absolutely loves it at Kim’s house! He just struts right in like he owns the place. Her pups couldn’t be any sweeter & we feel so lucky we found her . Thanks Rover for making this so easy.”
About: I grew up on Farm and have cared for animals my whole life. They are gods creatures and deserve the best care!! Love them all I am retired and live in Denver. This is something that I Love to do And have the skills to work with all type animals I care for my own pet with a fenced in yard, collar, and leash when needed. My pets have always been treated like a family members
About: Have been an animal rescuer/foster and provider to friends' pets for over 30 years. I domesticate feral cats, and with Angels to the Animals rescue and provide care to neglected and abused dogs, primarily pit bulls in Lincoln County. Am retiring from selling horse farms and am seeking supplemental income doing what I love best- animals. I make my own schedule and am available most of the time with notice. I am a walker and would love to exercise your dog. No overnites as I have 11 pets of my own . Mu dogs are all walked daily (small breeds) and my cats are mainly indoor except for 2 ferals who like to go into my backyard.
“Carol is the best. I requested in the last minute to watch my dog. I forgot vaccines record, yet she agreed to look after my Bentley. She is very kind and helpful. Though for few hours, she keeps updating me about Bentley. My dog settled with her very well and he was very happy after coming from her home. Thank you so much, Carol. I will highly recommend her if anyone looking for day care for you fur babies. I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
About: We are a homeschool family with lots of boys and lots of yard to run around in. I am home most days so taking dogs out to play or taking them on walks is no problem. Our family has a four year old Aussie who is very friendly and loves other dogs. Her name is Lily and she’s been part of our family since she was 8 weeks old so puppies don't scare me either. My children are kind and gentle and can be trusted to love on your dog. Your dog will not be left alone for extended hours but will feel like part of the family. I can send text updates as well. I am excited to start this journey! I am super flexible and ready to help. We are home most days and weekends. We love going to the park and going for walks. We have a very active lifestyle and spend lots of time outside. I will try to replicate the care you give your pet. I can crate them or let them roam and sleep wherever. If coming to your home, I'll do as you request.
“Today was Willow’s first full day with Michele and she came home happy and tired from 2 walks and plenty of playtime. She’s ready to do it all over again tomorrow!”
About: I have had dogs since I was born. We have had anywhere from 1 to 4 dogs at a time. As a family of four with two working parents, I have always been responsible to care for my dogs in the way they need. I currently work remotely for my full time job. I tend to do some traveling but also have much free time on my hands when I am at home. My two dogs at home are fully potty trained. I am comfortable taking them out on leashes, cleaning up after them, and crating them if needed.
About: I also invite friends that don’t have fenced in backyards to bring their small dogs to play in our fenced in backyard. No charge! Love small dogs. So sad that our last dog, a Cavalier passed away recently. I am home almost all the time. Dogs are never alone. I would treat them as lovingly as we have treated our deceased dogs. Cuddling with dogs is good therapy for them and us humans. We so miss all of our previous dogs. :( I am also experienced with dogs with disabilities such as totally blind and deaf. I am almost always home so pets are never home alone. We were so saddened by the recent death of our beloved Cavalier. Working with Rover has given me more dogs to love and cuddle. We have a home with a fenced in backyard, I would treat every dog as if it were my own. Love to take dogs on walks and play with them in the house and outside.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. It started with my own, and I gradually got hired to take care of various neighbors pets when those neighbors went on vacation. I’ve taken care of puppies and older dogs, and can do so well enough as long as I’m provided details on their needs during the meet&greet. I work Part-Time and attended one in-person class twice a week, that means I’ll be home most of the time and can take care of your pets whenever they need. I also live with someone who works from home, so even when I’m not around, your dogs will be in good hands. I give your pets the same respect I give my own. I pet them and play with them if that’s what they want, and if they don’t want that then I just keep an eye of them and make sure they’re not up to any mischief. And if I have to leave the dog alone overnight, the first thing I do in the morning after letting them out is check any areas available to them for any accidents, just to be safe.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life and currently own a dog myself, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels. Friends and family have relied on me for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication, and general care. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Chis was so patient with Sasha, our rescue of 3 months. He kept us updated on her with pictures. It took almost all day to get her to come inside. But I could see she was warming up. Chris will be watching her soon for 5 days. Thanks Chris!!”
“Porter had a great time. The pictures with your comments throughout the day were so reassuring that she was in good hands and enjoying her stay. Thank you Kristen for your excellent care!”

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Westport on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Westport commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,652 sitters in Westport, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.

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.
