“MITCH IS AMAZING!! Our dog Vito has a few special needs and Mitch was WONDERFUL with him. He sent photos and updated us a couple times a day which put us at ease leaving him. We definitely recommend him!!”
“Kristen was great and kept us updated especially cause we have a younger dog who is still learning and gets some anxiety. She was very nice and helpful. Thank you again!”
“Vivien did an amazing job with my cat, Comet! He was instantly comfortable with her and trusted her right off the bat. Vivien was friendly, reliable and responsive, sending pictures and videos during the visit. I would absolutely hire her again!”
“Jo is amazing! On our recent trip we had a moment of panic when we didn’t have all the documents we needed to enter the country we were going to and Jo save the day by getting the required document and sending it to me by screenshot. We came home and the house was clean and our pup was happy. We can’t ask for anything more!”
“Caleb was awesome! We were gone for a bit over a week and Caleb kept everything running smoothly. Our pups looked like they were having fun on the walks in the pictures Caleb sent to us. We are so grateful to have a trustworthy, kind sitter to care for the two most important things in our lives -- our dogs!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Mackenzie! She was flexible with our last minute change of schedule. She left the house exactly like we had it. She took Rocky on a couple of walks. She is even played with my daughter! She went above and beyond and will definitely be using her again soon!!!”
“Ruby was fantastic... Communicated well, sent numerous pics and videos of my bff doggie, followed instructions and was conscientious regarding staying in my home... Highly recommended as I will book her services anytime I need assistance !!!”
“Zariah was a life-saver! I had a last-minute cancelation but Zariah was able to accommodate my needs and took great care of my dogs. Zariah provided great communication during her stay with updates on my pups. I would 100% recommend Zariah for the future.”
“Ella was amazing!! She helped us out so much since we booked a last minute trip. She was quick to respond and provided updates throughout the day. She took great care of our home and our 2 dogs absolutely loved her :)”
“Hadia was great with Riley and was very communicative with lots of pictures and videos while we were gone. She also asked lots of questions about Riley before we left to ensure she could provide a positive experience. Would highly recommend Hadia to anyone looking for a Rover”
“Baylee is an amazing sitter and made me feel at ease the second I met her and she met my baby boy Van! I will definitely be rebooking her for next time and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”
“Tessa watched our dog Canyon in our home for a week in March 2026. Tessa took excellent care of Canyon, provided us with periodic updates and pictures throughout her stay! As an over-the-top and unexpected gesture, Tessa even picked up the backyard, washed any linens she used during her stay, and left our home better than she found it. Tessa is now our preferred sitter and we will definitely ask her first when we next need a sitter.”
“Sonja is incredible at what she does!…. She dropped in on my 2 x kittens and sent me so many pictures and made fortresses for them!. They were so happy when I got home. Sonja came last minute and she always put my mind at ease. I will use her now permanently and I can’t reccomend her high enough”
“Erin was the 100% perfect petsitter package. She was friendly, considerate, and kind. I felt at ease knowing she was taking care of my two pups, Worf and Ood. Her frequent "pupdates" with photos of the dogs playing with toys, getting cuddles, and chilling in their beds made me so happy. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were well cared for and being pampered.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Englewood
Heather was wonderful! She took great care of Mina, who can be reactive at times, and handled her with patience, confidence, and kindness. She made the whole experience stress-free by communicating consistently, sending lots of photos and updates, and always being quick to respond. She was reliable, flexible, and clearly cared about making sure Mina was comfortable and well looked after. I would absolutely book with Heather again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!
Michelle is incredible! She was on top of meeting our kitty's higher needs, feeding, cleaning, and keeping her company. She sent consistent updates and pictures/videos so we could see how our cat was doing while we were away on our trip. She was also very kind, soft spoken, and gentle, our cat loved her. Terra is a high anxiety kitty so it's not often that she warms up to people very quickly, but she definitely did with Michelle! She left everything as clean as we left it when we came back. Thank you for everything!
Erin did an amazing job taking care of our dog and watching our house while we were on a 10 day trip. We’re so grateful to her for the love and care she gave our fur baby while we were away. We received updates with pictures and videos every morning without asking. She spent time each day playing with our dog, giving her snuggles, and taking her out to our yard to get exercise. She also handled giving our dog her twice daily meds while we were away, and followed our specific instructions on how to enter and leave the house so our dog who can be an escape artist didn’t get out. In addition to caring for our fur baby she watered our plants, brought in our mail, and put out and brought in our trash, recycling, and compost carts. She was awesome, and we will definitely be reaching out to her to take care of our dog the next time we are away. She is the best sitter we’ve had for our dog!
Ella was fantastic with Pippin and Arya! It was clear she genuinely loves dogs. They were well cared for, happy, and I came home to two very content pups. She communicated throughout the stay and gave me total peace of mind. Would absolutely book with Ella again without hesitation!
Lauren was really patient with our new little dog who has separation anxiety and our slow elderly dog. She kept both dogs’ routines and schedules. She gave frequent updates and kept us in the loop when our little dog was struggling. We came home from our weekend trip to happy dogs and a perfectly clean house. Thanks Lauren!

FAQs for House Sitting - Englewood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Englewood on Rover is $54.39 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 8,754 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Englewood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Englewood 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 Englewood 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 Englewood 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
