“Felecia was AMAZING and took incredible care of our pup and our home. It was especially helpful to know that over the holidays Poppy was cared for and loved by someone so thoughtful. Thank you again!”
“Lara did an exceptional job of caring for our kitty, Finn. Making sure someone was with him when schedule changes came up, and working with us when we had a travel emergency as well. She is kind, caring, responsive and responsible. Highly recommend!”
“Brittany was so wonderful to our pups! She did an amazing job following our instructions and communicating with both me and my husband. I will have her back in a heartbeat if we need another sitter! She works from home so she was able to be with our pups consistently which is super important for me. Thank you Brittany!!”
“Morgan was amazing - daily updates and pictures - arrived to a clean home - and most importantly, my dog was happy and well exercised when I got home! I will definitely use Morgan again! She even sent me pictures of my flowers that bloomed while I was away!”

“Sarah did such a great job watching our 2 doggies who are opposites in everything! She sent daily pics with updates & took care of our home while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with her again!! Thanks so much Sarah!!”
“Nevaeh did a wonderful job watching my little dogs! She was caring, professional and kind! She followed all of my instructions and she even took my trash bins in from the outside on trash day. My older dog wouldn’t go upstairs to the guest room with her so instead of leaving him alone downstairs she chose to sleep downstairs with him which was very sweet. Everything was left perfectly clean and Punky and Wilbur were so well taken care of and happy. Thank you so much for your excellent care, Nevaeh!!”
“Katie did a wonderful job taking care of my puppy! She sent updates throughout the day and was quick to respond to my messages. Best of all, my dog Milo seemed to really get along well with her, so I knew he was in good hands!”
“Tim is a superb pet sitter! Certainly among the very best. He has a gentle nature and my dogs loved him. The house was impeccable when we got back. Even with my younger dog still in a very mouthy chewy phase he managed her very well. I would definitely book him again!”
“Susie (Deborah) did a wonderful job watching our two cats and two dogs while we were on vacation for a week! The dogs are large and high energy, so I know that it was not easy work! She sent us photos and comments to reassure us that everything was going well. We’re so grateful we had her there!”
“Bergen is amazing ! She was absolutely wonderful for my puppy who was 130 pounds and doesn’t know his size yet. She just has the best energy about her.”
“Angelika was a great help in house sitting with our dog and cat over 5 days. She gave us periodic updates and even helps us out with some house things when we were in a pinch. Highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Englewood
Kaitlyn did a great job watching our dog Stella in our home. She was very accommodating when I let her know Stella had a leg injury and needed some extra care while we were away. When we came home, Stella was healthy and happy and we trusted Kaitlyn with staying over with her in our home. We would definitely recommend her!
Jenny was awesome taking care of my cats Odin and Coco! She was very communicative with updates and sending pics and videos of them, and they definitely took a liking to her as well :) she took great care of my home too and was super accommodating/replied quickly allowing me to extend my trip twice. It was such a relief to have her help and I'd book her again in a heartbeat!
Heather is amazing! She watched my two dogs while I was away this week and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust with both of them. They have very different personalities and routines, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re in her hands. I’d happily book Heather again and again, and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies Heather! 🤍
This is the 2nd time Mariesa has cared for our two dogs and she was wonderful while we were away for 11 days! She sent us photos and updates, which were appreciated. She made sure they had enough play time and had their medications. The house was also immaculate when we returned, which we really appreciated!. We highly recommend her as a sitter!
Joanna was an amazing dogsitter for Willow! She was communicative throughout her stay, followed all instructions, administered medication, provided photos, and left my house neat and tidy! I was nervous leaving Willow with someone new as she has reactive behaviors, but Joanna handled her well and did not report any issues. Joanna was also very flexible and accommodating when my flights home were rescheduled several times. I would book Joanna again and recommend her to others!
Tessa was AMAZING! She met our dogs before the week she sat with them and was very thorough in preparing. While we were gone she sent us text updates and pics through the app so we could see how happy and relaxed our pups were the whole time. One of our dogs turned 9 while we were gone and Tessa celebrated with her, and gave both dogs their scheduled heartworm medicine. She also helped with various minor household things (brought the mail in, put the trash out) and was just all-around a great sitter! We'd definitely ask her to watch Cheyenne and Callie again!
We always love to have Jo watch our fur babies. She always is so attentive and careful with them. We have a senior dog and she follows his medication and care directions so carefully. Jo is fabulous and would 100% recommend to anyone who needs someone to watch their animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Englewood is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $91 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 8,586 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
