About: I love animals and have been caring for them since I can remember. Whether it be my own pets, volunteering, or as a job. I have taken the time to learn about the mannerisms and needs of many pets, cats and dogs in particular. I am comfortable accommodating medical issues and more challenging personalities. I strive to be thorough and responsible with my care, not only for your satisfaction, but because I want your babies to be as comfortable as possible! I have ample time throughout the week to dedicate to sitting though it will change periodically due to potential work schedule changes or school or personal plans My care will vary depending on your wishes and the personality of your pets! In general, I prefer to clean the litter box periodically throughout the day (for dogs bathroom breaks every two hours or less is optimal), as well as replace their water 2-3 times. I believe intellectual stimulation everyday is important via playing or other new experiences. I also own adjustable harnesses for supervised outdoors time so long as that is something you’re comfortable with.

As you know, it's so stressful trying to find someone who will care for your pets like you do, but Shari was absolutely fantastic for us! I've never seen our two cats act so well adjusted coming back from time away like they have with Shari taking care of them- We knew we were in perfect hands when we met her- She really cares about pets and their well-being. --Great communication, professionalism, and showed great care! We couldn't recommend her more! Thx Shari-

About: I have loved and cared for animals my whole life. Since I was very young, I have always had pets in my home. Growing up in Brazil, I cared for dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and other small animals. I am comfortable with feeding, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, giving attention, playing, and making pets feel safe and loved. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs patience, kindness, and care. I am responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I will treat your pets like family and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you are away. I work Monday through Friday from 7am to 5pm, so I’m available before 7am, after 5pm, evenings, and weekends. I’m also open to overnight care when it’s a good fit, as long as I can return by morning. I’m happy to discuss schedules and find the best option for you and your pet. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust with every pet in my care. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, medications, and any special instructions. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and comfortable. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring, reliable hands.

Hailey was absolutely amazing! I hired her to watch my two cats while I was away on a long trip, and she did such a wonderful job. She checked in every day, kept me updated, and made sure my fur babies were happy and cared for. I came home to two very content cats and a spotless space. I’ll definitely be hiring Hailey again for future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

About: I have taken care of my best friends dogs for a year, indulging in services like dog walking, feeding them, taking them out for potty and spending good time with them. I have two dogs of my own who are my world. I decided that pet sitting would be a good start to spending more time with animals giving them the love they deserve. My guarantee availability is Fridays and Saturdays. I currently work a part time job at Aldi as a cashier. At the moment I only work two to three days a week at random schedule. I am usually pretty flexible and can make myself available upon request. I am open to walk the dogs, take them out and feed them. I can stay at my clients home if they request and need someone to take care of their pets, spend some time with them and give them love. I am interested in knowing more about your pets before I take care of them. Are they good with other dogs? Do they have any allergies? Are they on any medications or specific conditions I need to be aware of ? Regardless, I am more than happy to taking care of them and will care for them and love them as my own.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a young girl. There was always a dog and cats in the house, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I recently lost my dog to old age, and I really miss that daily companionship, which is why I’d love to help care for other people’s pets. I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years, and now I’m ready to open that up to more families. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I have two cats of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable and easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m home most of the day, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and care. I do have two kids, so with a little advance notice I’m happy to plan ahead and make sure I’m fully available for your pet’s needs. I’m an active person and enjoy going on walks, so dogs will get plenty of movement and time outside. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting during the week and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I have a fenced backyard, and pets are always supervised when they’re outside. Most of the day they’ll be with me, so they’re not left alone for long. I handle all feeding, walks, and care myself to keep things consistent and done right. I have two cats that are indoor and outdoor. They’re friendly and used to being around other animals, but they mostly keep to themselves and won’t bother your pet. My home is calm, clean, and safe. My kids are gentle and love animals, and I always make sure interactions are respectful and supervised. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to make them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve joined with Rover because dogs make me smile! They genuinely add happiness to my life! Little ones, big ones or puppies are welcome! What better way to make a couple extra dollars, allowing owners flexibility at a lower cost and a super safe environment where they don’t have to be caged and their owners can have a piece of mind while they take their needed time away. I work from home so I am always there! I am an early riser so if your dog likes to go out early it’s no problem. I do not like to walk dogs after 10pm to avoid any encounters with wildlife. However, if your dog just needs to do a quick potty break after 10pm I can make that happen when needed. I do have a dog myself but I have a large room completed with windows over looking a lake! There are sliding glass doors to my main room. They even have their own entrance to a back yard where we can play ball and get some exercise. Or if they prefer to just lay in the sun that it is okay too! I live in a safe neighborhood for daily walks! I do have a large crate if needed.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals. While I may not have years of professional experience, I have cared for dogs for friends and families and always treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand how important pets are to a family, and I’ll always make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and care. Pet care fits easily into my routine right now because I’m on summer break and have lots of free time and flexibility. I’m available during weekdays, especially during the day, but I can also do evenings or nights if needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so making time to care for pets is something I genuinely look forward to! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, whether I’m in my home or a client’s. I follow any routines, feeding schedules, walking times, and special instructions carefully so pets can stay happy and stress-free. I give them plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision, and I always make sure they have a clean, safe environment. I also respect my client’s home and treat both their pets and space with care and responsibility.

About: I grew up on a farm and took care of 20+ animals all at once! I have always had a passion for taking care of furry friends, from big to small! What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail and adaptability. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, whether it’s providing extra patience for senior pets, giving a lot of playtime for active ones, or following specific training routines. I’m also great at building trust with pets, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. My experience with both young animals and older animals means I can handle a variety of needs with care and patience. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special needs they have. Whether it’s a daily visit or longer stays, I stay organized and make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I always prioritize their comfort, routine, and safety. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and playtime (or quiet time if they prefer that). I keep their space clean, follow any specific instructions from the owner, and check in regularly with updates and photos. I want pets to feel as relaxed and happy as possible while their owner is away.

About: I have a long history of pet care, and have extensive experience with the Shar Pei breed. I have owned Shar Pei's for over 25yrs and have done some rescue work with them as well. I have owned cats and dogs my entire life. I have experience with dogs that may need extra care such as meds or extra attention. Can't imagine life without them they just bring such a joy into our lives. You can have confidence in knowing while I'm taking care of your pet I will treat, and love them as my own. I know how hard it is to find the right person to take care of your pets, and will take the best of care of your 🐾🐾babies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I intentionally structure my schedule to ensure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets are never left unattended for long periods. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I maintain a reliable and flexible schedule to meet each pet’s needs. My goal is to provide dependable, routine-based care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident knowing their pets are a priority. I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs, whether in my home or my client’s home. I prioritize building trust by following the pet’s normal routine, maintaining a clean and secure space, and ensuring constant supervision and care. I’m mindful of each pet’s temperament, dietary needs, and any special instructions, and I take precautions such as secure doors, leash use, and hazard-free surroundings to keep them safe at all times. My goal is to create a comfortable, low-stress environment where pets feel cared for, protected, and at ease while their owners are away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of my own and family members from about the time I was 10. I’ve bathed, walked, fed, and given so much love to each and every one of them. Currently am working part time, and would like sometime extra to do on my down time. I am only working 4 days a week right now I unfortunately wouldn’t be able to care for in my own home due to family allergies, but I’d love a backyard to play in, and to be able to take for walks!

We recently moved to the area and were a bit stressed about finding a reliable pet sitter our dogs would feel comfortable with. Thankfully, we found Catlyn—and we couldn’t be happier! Before committing, she took the time to meet our dogs and get to know them, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her flexibility, clear communication, and genuine care for our pets really stood out. She kept us updated and made sure the dogs were not only safe but truly cared for. You can tell she loves what she does. I’d highly recommend Catlyn to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable pet sitter. We're so glad we found her and are looking forward to having her care for our pets again in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Englewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Englewood on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 1,375 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Englewood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Englewood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Englewood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Englewood. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
