“Second time Chelsea had watched my pups. She’s amazing. Attentive to each pups needs. Both pups have a good time with her. Also updates frequently to keep you at ease while you’re away.”
“Erin was great! We had Erin for a few days overnight to take care of our two dogs. She sent constant communication and updates throughout our trip and our dogs always looked like they were having a blast without us! Erin took our high energy dog on daily walks and gave our small one all the necessary cuddles. Thanks Erin!”
“Rachel was professional, timely, and took great care of our dog. We received many pictures throughout her stay and it was nice being able to know our dog was in good hands. Rachel will be our first contact next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Hadia did a great job watching our puppy, Maggie. She sent pictures and updates during the day and Maggje warmed up to her immediately. I would definitely hire Hadia to watch our pup in the future!”
“Logan was outmatched in class! He was easy to deal with from the moment we met and did our little introductory, he was a great communicator with me before I left and while I was away, sending me updates and photos. He clearly loves animals and my cats responded in kind… I would not hesitate to recommend him to any new clients seeking a reliable competent Pet Sitter.”
About: I have taken care of rescues since middle school, about 11. Having dogs in this life time has been my greatest reward and joy. ❤️ I have almost full availability to care for your loved pet. I can work almost any schedule needed and can show up on short notice. Animals should be let out frequently and their body/minds exercised. Mixed with a hefty amount of cuddles and approved treats make a happy family member.
“Let me start off by saying Nikole is very professional. The last babysitter we had I couldn’t say the same she took care of Gracie as if it was her own pup. She shared pictures and updates daily which made me feel more comfortable being away. She left the house just as I left it also!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job watching our two dogs while we were gone. Stephanie was very communicative, sent us updates as necessary, and sent us pictures of the dogs having fun! Our house was clean and taken care of as instructed when we got back home. Will absolutely rebook with Stephanie in the future, thank you!!”
“Declan was great! Very responsive and a delight to work with. My wife and I just moved to SLC and immediately went on a trip after, so we were nervous about leaving our babies in a new place, but he was very reassuring and took excellent care of them. As an added bonus he’s a master pet photographer and captured great shots of our little monsters. We will absolutely be reaching out to him for all our future trips!”
“Sydnee took such great care of our fur babies! She sent lots of pictures and updates. She also cleaned up after herself - I think it was cleaner than when she started!! We will definitely be using her again.”
“Chris was the best! They helped us so much. They took such great care of our dog and our home. They took time to care for our anxious doggy and gave her love and time. They are calm, responsive, and so kind. Chris left our house cleaner then we left it! Couldn’t recommend Chris more highly ?”
“Emily was amazing! She made us feel comfortable by providing references before our meet and greet, and was willing to learn how to give our dog daily insulin injections with no prior training. She sent us pics and kept us updated the whole time, and when we missed our flight she was flexible and stayed for two additional nights! Would highly recommend her!”
“Lexie is the best! It’s wonderful to have peace of mind and know my babies will be well taken care of. Lexie is so good with my two pups, she also took them for a trip to get pup cups. Thank you Lexie!!!!🐾”
“Kimberly was great. She was extremely communicative, organized, and caring towards our pup. She left our house in great condition and well cared for over a weekend. Would recommend!”
“Noa is fantastic!!!! We all love her. So great with our animals (1 dog and 1 cat), our home, and very sweet to our daughter too. Great communication and wonderful personality to boot.”
About: Reliable, active, and attentive sitter who provides individualized care, regular updates, and patience for energetic dogs, seniors, and pets with unique routines. I am open to caring for any age dogs. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I enjoy taking breaks for walks, playtime, and giving your pets attention throughout the day. Im also open to taking your pup for a jog if they have extra energy to spend! I prefer caring for pets in their own home to help keep their routine consistent and reduce stress. I have a friendly cat, but in-home pet sitting helps avoid adjustment concerns. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and respectful care of your home and pets.
“We had a great experience with Mariesa. I expected things were going to go well when Sydney, who normally takes a while to get comfortable with strangers, immediately became fast friends with Mariesa at the first meeting. While we were away, Mariesa sent photos and provided daily updates. We returned to a home in order and a happy pup. I definitely recommend considering Mariesa for dog sitting.”
“Karington took excellent care of our two girls! She was very communicative and understanding, and I loved getting pictures of them each day. She was also very helpful with our younger dog who is still in the process of crate training!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Englewood is $55

Highly recommend Mariesa! She stayed at our house to watch our pup, Nova, over our extended wedding weekend and she was excellent. We knew our girl was in great hands while we were away and didn’t have to worry about her at all. She has some specific medication and dietary needs and Mariesa went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and healthy while we were away. Thank you Mariesa!
Cheyenne is the best! My place flooded the morning I had to leave and she took it in stride. She communicated with me about the clean up process and of course Bear. When he had an upset stomach from the stress of the situation she adjusted to his food needs and kept me informed me of changes she saw. It was such a relief to feel like my home and Bear were in more than capable, caring hands so I could focus on my trip without a significant amount of extra concern. I highly recommend Cheyenne!
I’m so grateful I found Kaitlyn! She is so sweet and was very eager to meet and care for my dog while I was gone for a weekend. She was very responsive, easy to work with, provided updates throughout the day, and truly a great person to watch your pet! Even though it was my first time meeting her, I felt very comfortable with the care my dog was receiving after chatting which really made being away much easier!! I can’t recommend her enough!!!! 😊 I know Pudge is looking forward to seeing his new friend again! 🫶🏼
Sara was great! On short notice she was able to watch our herd of 5 for an evening. We have a relatively strict regime with our animals and she followed instructions to a T! Her communication was excellent and we had no concerns of our animals safety or wellbeing in her care. 10/10 would book again
Amanda was great . My dog was not exactly a fan of us leaving her , and was pretty much grumpy the entire time . But she was patient with her and didn’t force her into doing anything she wasn’t comfortable with . Gave me updates. I still had a stress free vacation knowing she was going back and forth to my house to check on her . I will use her again if she will have it 😅
Delaney did a stellar job watching our two Aussies! She was communicative, proactive, sent us photo updates of the pups, and left our house spotless! We’ve already booked her again for another stay! Both of our dogs can be overwhelming when meeting strangers, but Delaney remained calm and friendly during the entire meet and greet. I had no concerns from the beginning that she’d do a great job!
Erin is simply an amazing human and pet sitter! She watched our two cats while we were traveling for a week. One of our cats can be pretty skittish and she was able to get her to come out of her shell when we've only ever seen her get close to my son. I'd highly recommend Erin for anyone looking for a pet/house sitter, we'll definitely ask her to watch our pets in the future. :) Thank you, Erin!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Englewood on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 8,736 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.
