“Victoria was amazing! I can’t say enough about her! One of my dogs is really scary and he doesn’t deal with anyone, she was able to make him feel comfortable! No accidents in the house, Victoria made sure they went out on a timely schedule. Also the house was left in immaculate shape! She cleaned up behind herself and the house was just as I left it, I would definitely book her again and will be booking in the future! She made sure to send pictures and updates! I felt safe leaving my house to her! Thank you Victoria! You were amazing.”

“Julie & Roger took such great care of our pup while we were away! He's anxious around new people so to say we were concerned is an understatement. Julie & Roger sent us so many photos of how much fun he was having! I don't think he missed us even a little bit and he seemed to warm up to them quickly. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Guster for us!”

About: I am able to watch and take care of birds, reptiles, fish, and any other exotic pet you have. Hey there! My name is Penelope and I’ve been working for Rover 4 years now. I am open for all options and very flexible with any additional needs you or your furry friends may need! I have worked as a vet tech for 2 years and as a zookeeper for 2.5 years so I have a medical background. I have worked at a doggy daycare and for petco as the animal caregiver for 5 years. I have experience with lots of different animals from dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. As a pet owner I know they are like family, and it can be hard to leave them so I provide lots of updates with pics and I can be texted at any time. I am very active and love going on walks and giving your pets lots of attention! I am currently home full time so I have plenty of time to take care of and play with your fur babies. I am able to provide frequent potty breaks and checks. I have plenty of extra room in my house to keep everyone separated if anything ever happens. Plus lots of outside space to run around.
“Val did a great job watching our 3 dogs for a week long trip at our house. The dogs were cared for, fed and they warmed up to her. She was communicative and sent daily pictures/updates.”
“Dolly has been wonderful to work with. Very prepared and professional. Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety since our older dog died, and we had no problem leaving him with Dolly there. He was comfortable with Dolly immediately! Will definitely call on her again.”


About: I’ve been around animals for all of my life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I currently have a large friendly Bernedoodle of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger dogs, energetic puppies, daily walks, feeding schedules, and lots of playtime! I also have an animal science and equestrian background, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for animals and paying close attention to their behavior and individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and make sure owners receive plenty of updates and photos while they’re away. As a college student, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and will always communicate clearly about my availability so they receive consistent, reliable care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and household rules. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure pets are secure on walks and comfortable in their environment. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing while they’re in my care. I am also Cat and Dog CPR certified in case of emergency!
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs since childhood, including a Pit Bull, a Boston Terrier, and my 3-year-old Boxer. I have also cared for a senior dog who needed medication and extra reassurance during fireworks, and I comfort my own Boxer through his fear of fireworks as well. I’m patient and comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, routines, medication schedules, and care preferences while maintaining clear communication and providing regular updates. I am a college student on a nursing pathway, and my class schedule leaves me with flexible time for pet care. My best availability is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons, as well as weekends. I can also accept selected visits on Tuesdays and Thursdays around my morning classes and evening lab schedule. I keep an organized calendar, so I will only accept bookings when I can give your dog reliable, unrushed attention. I prioritize each dog’s safety, comfort, and normal routine. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and household rules; keep dogs securely leashed outdoors; provide fresh water; and send regular updates. I have a 3-year-old Boxer and have previously dog-sat, so I understand the importance of patience, exercise, affection, and watching for changes in behavior. My Boxer currently lives with my family in another city, so there would not be another dog present with me at college. As a nursing-pathway student, I am responsible, attentive, and comfortable following detailed care and safety instructions.
“Meghan was wonderful with my babies! She let me know how they were doing every morning and evening and was very communicative. I came home to happy puppy and kitty when I came home from my trip. It was such peace of mind to know that they were taken care of and loved on while I was gone. I will definitely use Meghan again in the future!”

“Kim is a wonderful sitter, and we were very comfortable leaving our pups with her. Our dogs each have their own behavioral quirks, and she wasn’t fazed as at. She communicated really well while we were out of town and our dogs were happy and healthy when we got back. Thanks Kim!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for family pets and about 7 years of hands on experience training and caring for my own dogs. I currently have a small Maltese/Yorkie mix and i understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs. I’m naturally fun and high functioning energy, so I’m comfortable keeping up with active dogs, but I’d say patience is one of my biggest strengths. Working in healthcare has taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and compassion are, and I bring that same approach when caring for animals. I work PRN(as needed) in healthcare, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care and make sure your pet gets plenty of playtime, walks, and companionship. I live in a one-bedroom apartment with access to a dog park, a large open field directly in front of my complex, and several nearby walking trails. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of opportunities for exercise and outdoor time. I’ll also follow any routines, feeding instructions, or special care preferences you provide so your pet feels as comfortable and safe as possible.

“Gabe is a nice man with a great heart for your pet(s). He communicates well and delivers on his promises. I feel I can trust him again to take care of my fur family of five.”

“Brett was great with our dogs! We did a meet n greet the day before, and our dogs settled in with him fairly quickly when he came to house sit. He sent daily updates with pictures and videos, which was very much appreciated. We felt very comfortable knowing our dogs were so well taken care of while we were gone. We highly recommend Brett!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, starting with my own pup who taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and unconditional love. From feeding routines and long walks to medication schedules and belly rubs, I’ve handled it all with care and attention. I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog—and your home—in someone else’s hands. That’s why I treat every pup like family and every home with respect. I keep things clean, calm, and consistent so your dog feels safe and happy in their environment while you’re away. Whether your dog loves daily walks, playtime, or just a quiet companion, I adapt to their needs and routine. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. Let me help make time away stress-free—for both you and your pup! I’m currently only working some days so whenever it works for our schedules I would love to provide you with all the times needed to help get the best in home pet care! I will care for the pets for when I’m at the clients home, the animals will have my full attention because they matter to me as much as they matter to you!
About: DISCLAIMER * As of 10/26/2024 * If i cannot meet you and your pets before the start of the booking, i will not accept the booking. This has become a safety issue for me. I will no longer be able to accept verbal verification that your pet will be fine with a stranger entering the home. (Exceptions are small puppies) I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. My neighbor growing up had 4 cats, that I loved dearly! She was the first person who allowed me to watch her fur babies when she went on vacation! I've pet sat many times since then. Dogs big and small of all breeds from a little pug to a 100lb+ Rottweiler. I own a 85lb pit bull mix and a 10lb weenier dog. 🐶 They are my babies.💗 I can drop in anytime to check on your fur babies. Spend extra time with them. I do bathing, and walks also! If you need your fur babies to be crated, no problem! I will make sure their safety comes first. You can put your mind at ease knowing your pets will be taken care of! This is my full time job, I enjoy every second of it! So day or night I can always do a drop in visit or a walk! Your pets safety comes first! So during a meet and greet I will be going over a small list of questions to make sure I can take care of your fur baby to the best of my ability. With this I create a “pet profile” so when you need to rebook with me I’ve already got a reference to look back at. EXAMPLE; if your dog is good with other animals, or if there is a certain amount of food that needs to be given. These are just notes I make for myself, and so you can rest assured your fur baby is getting the best care!
About: Hi there! I’m Roo, a lifelong animal lover with 25 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or giving extra cuddles, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and at home. I’ve cared for dog/cat's seniors, puppies, rescues and always follow each pet’s routine closely. Communication is really important to me — I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. When I’m not pet sitting, I love visiting the Cat cafe with my son to play with other cats, we actually adopted our lovely Stormy from there. I treat every pet as my own and can’t wait to meet yours! Working from home so I have flexibility with my schedule to care for a few more animals. I have a 5-year-old son who loves to play with them as well. I have a fenced in backyard with tons of space to run around and soak up some sun. I have indoor space for indoor pets as well.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Westridge is $45

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Westridge walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Westridge maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Westridge choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
