“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.”
“Brittany did a great job caring for our dog, cats, and chickens while we were away. She took great pictures and sent regular updates. The house was clean when we got back. We would definitely hire her again!”
“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 was so amazing! She stepped in last minute after our previous sitter backed out and was so amazing with our older 17 year old kitty, who requires daily medication and special food. I could tell they were loved and cared for by the photos she sent and how relaxed they were when I got home. So grateful to have found her!”
About: After a walk with me your dog will be tired out! I am an active person who has a golden of my own that requires a lot of exercise. I am outside with her everyday taking her on new adventures and would love for other pups to join us, if they’re friendly and you’re okay with it of course! I have a flexible schedule working from home and years of experience with all different types of dogs in different environments. Growing up with a rescue dog I learned how to care for her throughout all stages of her life up to her senior years. My current golden, Luna, is great with other dogs and always brings the fun and energy. I currently have a very flexible work from home schedule. This allows me to be able to take your dog for a walk or pop in for a house visit anytime of the day that works best for you! I work Monday - Friday and am around most weekends as well. I currently live in a home with a fenced in yard so your pup can run around free. I do live with 1 dog, if your pup is not friendly I can always stay at your place while my partner stays at our house with our dog.
“Per usual Clementine had a better time than I did. She got lots of time to explore and play and see her friends. The photos I received were both hilarious and cute. I like that I get to know about Clems adventures and silliness. Jo always kills it l.”
“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!”
“Mitch did a wonderful job sitting Kizmet! She was extremely happy when I got home. He sent updates and pictures to me regularly. Also, on his first stay, I got stuck out of town, and Kizmet also had a seizure. He handled everything extremely well, and took good care to reassure me that all was well, and that Kiz was ok. I would recommend him wholeheartedly! You can rest easy if he is caring for your fur baby!”
“Easiest 5 stars for Mary Sue!!! Our girl got sooo many fun adventures this past week, we received at least 1 update every day and pics to go along, and we were so happy to see how much love she was getting while we were away! Mary Sue also took great care of our place and left us a clean home to come back to after our trip. We would be thrilled to have her back anytime, as would our Bumi !! <3”
“Tessa was great! She was responsive and took great care of our sweet guy. Our house was left clean, she asked to water our plants, and our cat seemed very well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use Tessa again!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Madeline was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of both my pets and my home while I was away. I came back to happy, well-cared-for pets and a house that was clean and well-maintained. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I had complete peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. I highly recommend Madeline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Nathan did a fabulous job taking care of our 4 pets this weekend- 3 dogs and 1 cat! He was very communicative and sent lots of updates and pictures. He followed our instructions closely and our pups seemed to really enjoy hanging out with him for a few nights. I highly recommend Nathan! He also cleaned our house before finishing up which was such a nice extra touch. Will book again in the future.”
“Bree was very responsive to communication. We felt very comfortable with entrusting our furry kid to her care in our home for 4 nights. She was so respectful of our home that she asked permission before inviting a friend over and she left the place in great condition. We really appreciated the daily updates which included photos!”
“Dilruba was so kind! She kept my one year old golden retriever active and outside for much of the day (her favorite thing). She kept the house very clean and was communicative. Will Book Ruby again! Thank you!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Englewood
Jenna was an amazing dog and house sitter! Very communicative and friendly, and conscientious and thoughtful of our home. When we arrived home, our dog, Felix, seemed genuinely attached to her and sorry to see her go! I would absolutely recommend working with Jenna, and plan to reach out to her again.
Mary was fantastic with our cats while we were out of town for the weekend. We appreciated the meet and greet before our trip and how quick Mary was with communication. Even though we had little cell service, we knew our babies were in good hands. Mary is one of the sweetest cat sitters we’ve had and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
Casey has taken care of Humphrey when we go out of town for the past few years, and she is great! This past time, she kept me extra updated on his eating because we were both concerned that he was only eating treats. I always know he is in great hands with Casey!
We usually use a boarding kennel for our dog when we are away, but this time we decided to use a Rover sitter. Shannon Bauman recently cared for our 11 year old Boston Terrier over a weekend. Shannon was very communicative and provided a daily photo with updates. She walked and played with our dog, which our dog (and we) appreciate! Our dog was well-cared for and genuinely enjoyed his time with Shannon. I highly recommend Shannon as a dog sitter.
Mia did an excellent job taking care of our kitty. She also watched our house and flowers. We.will use Mia in the future and we highly recommend her. We were gone for am extended stay in Europe and she communicated with a picture every day. She also trimmed our kitty's nails and brushed his teeth nightly. And on our return our kitty was calm and loving.
Kayla was a great sitter! Reliable, communicative and took excellent care of our 2 pups! She left the house in better condition than we left it and wrote us a thorough report on how everyone did. We definitely hope to use her again and recommend her to anyone seeking good, reliable pet care!
Nathan did a fabulous job taking care of our 4 pets this weekend- 3 dogs and 1 cat! He was very communicative and sent lots of updates and pictures. He followed our instructions closely and our pups seemed to really enjoy hanging out with him for a few nights. I highly recommend Nathan! He also cleaned our house before finishing up which was such a nice extra touch. Will book again in the future.

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.
