I highly recommend Katrina. She took very good care care of our two cats, was very professional throughout the process, and sent updates so we knew how they were doing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely book her again!

Cheryl was lifesaver by helping me with a last minute drop in for my two (very large) pups! She gave detailed updates, was sensitive to each dogs needs, and was very friendly. She even stopped by before the first job to introduce herself and meet the pups in person. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again for my drop in / walking needs.

About: I have always loved fur babies and have worked with all different age groups and energy types! I love learning about every pet's story and what makes them special. I am home for the summer from college, so I typically have a flexible schedule to fit your needs. I will be going back to school in mid-August. Every pet has different needs and boundaries, and I always aim to respect their trust. My own dog was very anti-social with people and other pets, so I know how to navigate those difficult interactions and make them feel safe.

About: When you love dogs or cats that love will always be with you whether you’re caring for your own pets or someone else’s. I believe pets should be treated like people, with love and a concern for their comfort, happiness and well being. After owning a family retail business for many years, and then working for a major national bank, it was time for a change. Why not do something that involves my love for pets? Dog walking was the answer. For the past eight years I've been delivering dog walking services to pet owners, ensuring strict supervision of pets during excursions while providing a safe and nurturing environment for dogs with different needs, temperaments and medical conditions. Most importantly, you can rest assured that the safety, security and well being of your dog will always be my number one priority. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs or cats, Monday through Friday between 8 am & 4 pm. I’m not usually available on weekends, however, if you’re in a bind and need a walk or a visit on a Saturday or a Sunday, and I have no plans that weekend, I most likely will be able to do it as long as it’s no later than 12 pm. For your dog's safety, dogs are prolific sniffers, inevitably putting things in their mouths that they shouldn't. I pay close attention to and keep a watchful eye on the ground to make sure your dog doesn't put anything in its mouth that can be harmful. In the unlikely event your dog or cat needs medical attention, I’m certified in cat and dog first aid by the American Red Cross.

About: I have a dog and cat of my own and raised them since puppyhood/kittenhood. I believe all furbabies deserve the most loving care and attention possible. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for boarding, visits, and walks. Feel free to reach out and I will work with your unique schedule. If your fur-baby is more shy or independent, I have extra rooms where they can rest comfortably and confidently. If your fur-baby is more social, I have two pets that can keep them company. Safe community with private walking paths and not much traffic for peaceful dog walks. Clean and well-maintained household.

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs over the course of my life and have grown a passion in their care, upkeep, and most importantly, their loving personalities. I understand that every animal is very unique and I enjoy their individual quirks and characteristics that make them who they are. I personally own a variety of pets including a dog (Yogi), and various lizards, fish, and frogs. To go along with my pets, I have also cat sit on plenty of occasions for my main man Mr. Cat. My passion for animals has lead me to this app to share my love with all animal types . While I am new to this app, I promise I am more than experienced with animal care. I look forward to meet you and especially your furry friends! I currently have a lot of free time as a recent college graduate. I am very flexible with time of day and will be able to accommodate with your schedule. I will be able to work with any environment whether that be a fenced in yard, taking on walks etc. I am more than comfortable with any type of animal and can certainly make sure that he or she eats, has water, and any other individual need.

Tracy and Steve were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sent regular updates and videos of Dakota, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. They were so kind, easy to talk to, and genuinely cared about her. They even left her treats and a thoughtful note, which was such a sweet surprise. I would absolutely trust them with Dakota again😊

Thank you! You put Pete's mind at ease. He's just beginning to travel again and the cats are like his children. His anxiety was gone and he loved that Ellen was patient and understood that they both do not come out for most folks. It can make it boring for the human. Lol. So thank you for being kind and understanding! Appreciate you.

Maxibel did an amazing job taking care of my two pups! From the start, communication was clear and consistent, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares about animals my dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. I came home to two relaxed and content pups, which says everything. I would absolutely trust Maxibel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

About: I work as a behavioral therapist so I am very familiar with how to handle people and animals. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from work it’s patience, I take the time it takes. I work with my clients for a few hours a day and am not in any classes currently, so I have plenary of time to walk, sit, and care for pups and kittys. I have two loving kitties that curl up to anyone who meets them, and I also have a car so I can totally drop by and give your pup/kitty all the individual attention they need.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of family friends as well and clients of families i babysit for the past 6 years. I am a huge dog lover and some would even a dog whisperer. No dog is too big or too small for me! I am currently awaiting a summer internship that starts in July so I am very free until then! I am the most free in the afternoon! I have a fenced yard in my home and I have the tightest grip on a leesh you’ve ever seen! I have never lost a dog!

Tyler is such a wonderful person, he's very patient and kind towards the dogs! Rescues can surprise you with new reactions, Tyler showed compassion and love and eventually the problem child learned to trust him. I will recommend Tyler to anyone who is looking for that extra help! Thank you!

Kathryn took wonderful care of our two sphynx cats! She has such a calming presence they both felt comfortable around her right away, even our little girl who is normally shy around new people. Communication was great, and I felt so much better knowing my babies were well cared for while we were away. I’ll definitely book Kathryn again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Tina was incredible. Our mini schnauzer is high wired and 12! But he was so happy and excited when we arrived home this evening after two days and three visits from Tina! Thank you so very much we will use you again and again and I advise all to do the same such a town at ease with all pictures and texts nonstop of our dog and Tina. Appreciative beyond.

Lindsay was so great to work with! Our Poodle Pippa had major surgery a week prior so my wife and i were nervous about leaving her with someone new (she’s get too excited and tear her stitches) but when we met Lindsay we were immediately reassured. Very professional, pleasant, and responsible. Not to mention she did all of this on Thanksgiving! Highly recommend.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Westville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Westville 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 25,506 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westville. 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 Westville 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.

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 Westville 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!

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Westville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westville. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.

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.
