“Diana does really well with my dog who is very anxious about meeting new people. She keeps me informed about everything my dog does and takes great pictures of my dog. She is very good at taking instructions and takes great care of my dog.”
“Absolutely awesome! Great communication and was very understanding with my dog that has some unique quirks. I came back to an apartment that was as clean or better than I left it after Emily has watched Benji overnight for 6 days. 10/10 would recommend Emily!”
“Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.”

“Ellie had a great time with Yeisha. They played and cuddled, which is a big deal for my pup, who often takes time to warm up to new people. Looking forward to using Yeisha again soon.”
“Shariana took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She was very communicative and checked in regularly. She was super conscientious about our cats’ habits and needs. We felt confident that our cats would be happy and kept good company. She also left our apartment tidy and clean while she stayed at our place. Highly recommend trusting Shariana with your cats/pets.”
“We came back to a very happy pup! Would highly recommend Kaylamay — your pet will get plenty of good care and you’ll get plenty of updates throughout the stay.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Englewood
Danielle was absolutely wonderful. We have 2 German Shepards one working line and young that has a lot of energy and 6 year old large showline male who needs a moment to settle before being introduced. She listened to how we help him feel comfortable and within moments he was relaxed around her. She asks great questions to be sure your pets have everything they need. We also have a 15 yr old cat and she was great at spending quality time with him as well. She is an excellent communicator, gets back to you promptly, took amazing care of our home while we were out. We felt so at peace knowing she was there with them and she made sure they had a great time too. We are so grateful we found Danielle and look forward to her caring for our pets again!
We could not be happier with Aiyesha! She took such wonderful care of our cat who was recovering from a medical issue, giving him medicine and making sure he was feeling well! We got so many photos and updates, and she left the apartment spotless. Our cat has a new best friend!
It was a pleasure having Kendall watch my 2-year old ball of energy cockapoo. My pup took to her immediately when we did a meet and greet before an evening house sit. She was on time, respectful and even took my pup out for a game of catch! I’ll definitely continue to work with her and recommend her for your pup-sitting needs!
I can’t say enough about the diligence and care that Sam provides for Clyde. He walks him daily and also babysat him for 5 days while I traveled for work (in my home). He connects with Clyde so well. I thank God everyday for his help! What a gem. Thank you, Sam!
Justyn took wonderful care of my kitten during a 9 day sit when I had to travel last minute to handle a family emergency. He was communicative, thoughtful, and very attentive to her needs. I came home to a happy kitten and an apartment exactly as I left it, which says a lot when you’re trusting someone with both your pet and your home! He even made sure small things like packages and my keys were organized for when I returned. I really appreciated the updates and how comfortable Marcy seemed the entire time. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Carolyn did such an amazing job housesitting. I had to book last minute due to an emergency and she was at my place within an hour. My apartment looked just as it was when I left it, and Carolyn followed instructions perfectly. She was very communicative and very thoughtful with my anxious dog. I am so glad to have found her in such a pinch and will definitely be booking with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Englewood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Englewood on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 18,927 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.
