“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!”
“I reached out to Nathan re: a VERY last-minute booking for dog sitting at my home. He was flexible in setting up a meet & greet around my schedule and adjusting the booking on the fly. He was communicative throughout and sent lots of pictures and videos. I came home to a happy, healthy dog, and a spotless apartment. Definitely recommend Nathan!”
“Conrad was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was very happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and pictures were sent as requested. We will definitely be using Conrad’s services again in the near future.”
“Feleshia is very caring and communicate. She's also great with our pups. Our babies were actually a little disappointed when we got home. You won't be disappointed if you book her for housesitting.”
“Jo came to the rescue by housesitting when my dog couldn't stay at his normal boarding location due to a minor surgery. She was responsive, caring, and made sure my dog had a comfy stay while I was traveling. Jo sent frequent updates with great pictures and took great care of the house too.”
“Angie did an absolutely incredible job taking care of our dog, Loxi, while we were away. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing Loxi was in such caring and capable hands. Angie went above and beyond to ensure Loxi was happy and well-cared for, giving her plenty of love, attention, and exercise. It was clear that she truly cared about Loxi’s well-being...and we were sent multiple daily updates and photos! Not only did she take wonderful care of our pup, but she also kept our house spotless during her stay. We were amazed to come home to a clean and organized home—it felt like a dream return! To top it off, she even did some laundry and watered plants, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture. Angie’s attention to detail and care for everything was truly exceptional. We can’t recommend her highly enough! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet and home like their own, Angie is the perfect choice. Thank you so much, Angie, for everything you did—you’re the best!”
“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 !!!”
“Mary Sue deserves more than 5 stars. She went above and beyond for our 3 hounds! We will definitely be rebooking for our future needs! She kept us updated multiple times throughout each day and gave us picture updates to ensure our dogs were in great hands! Our place was clean when she left and our dogs were beyond happy which is everything we wanted after coming back home from a long trip! Would definitely recommend Mary Sue and he will use her again in the future!”
“Allison was wonderful with my dog while I was traveling. My pup can be slow to warm up to new people, and Allison won him over very quickly. She was communicative and I felt comfortable while away. I would definitely have her back anytime.”
“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”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Englewood
Justine was amazing with my two dogs. My scheduled sitter fell through, and she was available last minute and was fantastic. She provided me with updates and photos of my pups and was super communicative with me. Justine stayed at my house with the dogs and took such good care of my apartment and was so thoughtful while staying there. I would book her again anytime.
Melissa is an absolute gem - she always takes the best care of our senior pup, but this most recent time she went above and beyond to make him comfortable and nurse him back to health. She not only cares for our dog in the moment but genuinely cares about his long term health and happiness. She’s the absolute best!!
Kinta was so great! I needed a last minute dog sitter and she was a complete life saver who took great care of my senior baby. I got regular updates with photos and videos that put me at ease while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and use her in the future.
Brittany stayed at our home and watched our 2.5 year old 110 lb Cane Corso Stella. Upon arriving to our house, Stella instantly remembered Brittany from a few weeks ago when we did a meet and greet. Stella was happy and excited and so comfortable with Brittany that she followed her around and jumped right up in bed with her at bedtime. I really appreciate Brittany sending updates and pictures throughout the weekend of Stella as this was the first time she watched her. I could tell by the photos and videos that Stella was happy and having a great time. Brittany was an extremely considerate guest in our home, she ran our dishwasher and brought in our packages prior to us arriving home. We already have rebooked with Brittany for Dec/Jan and we are thankful we found her on the rover app!
Ella is an attentive, caring, and respectful pet sitter. She went out of her way to ensure that our cats were treated like family. She even connected with our senior cat who is very friendly but becomes very sad/withdrawn when we leave. All-in-all, we could tell that both of our cats were well cared for in our absence. Additionally, she treated our home with respect and left it clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend and use Ella again!
Working with Shannon has been an excellent experience. Her approach to making sure we were a right fit (2 greyhounds) for house sitting was very much appreciated. Her attention to detail, providing me updates while away and being overall attentive to the dogs’ needs was top notch.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Englewood on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,701 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.
