“Sara is such a great sitter! She is caring, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator. She always sends pictures and updates. I feel she genuinely cares about my pup! I know Nova is getting great care when Sara visits and Nova absolutely loves her.”
“Maegan was fantastic! She showed up on time, everytime which is far different than sitters we have had previously. She was great with our dogs and they seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed her visits! Strongly recommend her!”
“Rose was wonderful and easy to work with! I never had to worry about anything with her. She is prompt, communicative, reliable, and most importantly great with my dog. We were both so lucky to work with her over the past 8 weeks. I’d book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Super duper dogwatch trooper! Provided regular updates and timely pics. Great attention to detail, remembering little quirks I told her about our dog. I’d say even nicer things, but I’d rather keep her a secret ;)”
“Once again an awesome experience with Misty and Fiona. They sent notes and pictures from every visit and we could clearly see that our girls were comfortable and well taken care of. This is the second of many more bookings in the future. Highly recommend- 5 stars”
“This is our second time having Kristine watch our boys and she was wonderful with them. Always prompt for the many drop in visits we had scheduled over the long weekend and communicative. The boys got plenty of exercise and playtime and were well taken care of. I highly recommend her and will have her help us again in the future.”
“Shelby was such a pleasure to work with on short notice. She took excellent care of my boys and even got my scaredy cat to come out of hiding. Highly recommend and would definitely work with her again!”
“We hired Ellie for dog walking services. She promptly returns my calls and was also happy to do a “meet and greet” with our rather shy, insecure 10 year old Havanese prior to her first visit. We were recently quite delayed in our travels and fortunately she was able to adjust her schedule same day to accommodate us. Thank you Ellie! We will definitely continue hiring Ellie for her services!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Valerie and the care she takes with our little one. This last time she was very flexible and was able to add an additional visit because our need changed. I highly recommend Valerie.”
“Friendly, communicative, understanding - Tracy does it all! She catered to my cat’s needs and made sure to help him feel comfortable. Tracy’s experience with pets is unmatched, and I would be comfortable to hire her any time.”
“Leslie is wonderful! I feel so much better knowing that our newly adopted dog has a break from the crate while we are at work. I love seeing the photos and detailed updates after her visits.”
About: I have two dogs and have been around animals all my life and I love helping out to take care of them! I have always had a soft spot for animals and would love to care for yours! I do have a part time job currently however I am able to stop by in the mornings, around lunch time, dinner time and even nights if needed! I can be open to home boarding for dogs if your dog likes other dogs and cats! I have a fenced in yard as well as two dogs and a cat that live in my home! My dogs are a bit timid until you get to know them! And my cat is the chillest cat and doesn’t bother anyone!
About: I’ve grown up with a 16 year old pup! I also have walked dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently work with dogs and cats on top of having 3 of my own! All different sizes too :) I currently have everyday open with a variety of different hours available! I can do one time a day or even 4 if need be! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I live next to a huge fenced in field, along with having extra enrichment items, treats, and different foods for all sizes of dogs and cats!
“Alex took such wonderful care of our cat, Pusstachio over our 4 day trip! He has clearly fallen in love with her and it has been such a comfort to know she was taking such good care of him during our absence! We especially appreciate the speed of her response to our last minute booking request! She made time to come meet our cat before we left to get to know his routine. Alex was also so kind to bring in our packages and water our veggies during our trip- which was so very appreciated! 10/10 experience for both us and and Stache!”
“This was my first experience using a dog walker via Rover and I’m so thankful that I ran across Dominique’s profile. She was amazing! She calmed my anxiety with leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, she was sweet and caring with my dogs and her communication was impeccable. I seriously cannot be more thankful to her!!! Please consider her for your pet care needs.”
“Connie is amazing! We love getting her detailed notes and pictures each time she stops by to feed and play with our kitties while we’re out of town. She always take such good care of them - haven’t gone to anyone else since finding her. Couldn’t recommend her more or your pet sitting needs!”
About: I have raised my own dog since she was ten weeks old, mentored by my father who has raised three litters of puppies throughout his life. I have also done pet-sitting for friends and family for dogs as small as beagle puppies to as large as a Labrador. I am currently on summer break from graduate school, but I take five- mile walks every morning year-round. As my classes are in the evening, I can fit dog-walking into my schedule in the mornings and early afternoons. I am attentive and responsible for my pets needs, and take pride in ensuring that the animals I care for are happy and healthy. I have a nine-year-old mixed breed dog who enjoys her daily walks and sunbathing on the deck, but does not enjoy the company of other dogs very much.
“Anhelika IS THE BEST!! This is our second time using her & we feel so confident and comfortable that our little guy is being well taken care of when we are away. She goes above and beyond to play with him, spend time with him, and make sure he gets all the love we would give! To us it feels like this is more than just a job for her and our little guy definitely feels it too. Thank you Anhelika for taking such good care of our fur baby!!”

Alex was so amazing with our three cats. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, gave them lots of love and attention, and was able to give my elderly cat her medicine. Alex sent updates and pictures throughout our trip. The kitties were all healthy and happy when we returned. We will definitely use Alex again!
We recently booked Mikayla to care for our two cats while we were away, and she did a fantastic job. One of our cats is very social and easygoing, while the other is much more anxious and cautious with new people, so I’m always nervous leaving them with someone new. Mikayla handled both of them so thoughtfully and professionally. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly paid attention to the details of their care. We came home to two happy and well cared for cats, which is honestly the best feeling after traveling. I also really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Westwood on Rover is $14.98 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,600 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Westwood. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westwood. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
