“Neha did such an amazing job and took such good care of our little puppy while we were at work! She stuck to his schedule and made sure he didn’t tear up our house! We would definitely use Neha again!”

I am comfortable following detailed routines to keep your pets safe, happy, and relaxed while you’re away. I am a retired flight attendant and the best part of my job was to transport rescued furry pets to their “forever home”😊 I am responsible, clean and respectful of your home, non-smoker, reliable and detailed oriented. Looking forward to caring for your furry family members and your home!!🐾🐾🐾 I'm currently available full time every day of the week!

“Sarah & David are so sweet and took great care of our 2 nervous dogs & house while we were gone. They were very communicative & sent great pictures. I would definitely book them again.”
About: I love all animals and I have experience in lots of different animal care, including aquatics and exotics. I myself have two cats and a dog, and I have helped out folks with many different species, including husbandry. I’m so excited to meet your pet! Every morning my cat kids wake me up around 5:30/6am. The cats and I eat our breakfast together, Babygirl gets her meds, and then just spend the rest of the morning lounging and relaxing. When the senior dog wakes up, he gets his meds and breakfast and then it’s walk time!! Lunch time the cats each get a little churu treaty, and they spend some time playing before afternoon naps. They basically bounce back and forth from silly time to deep sleep for the rest of the day, then it’s dinner time, walkys for Kenji the dog and more playtime, then bed. Pets aren’t “spoiled,” they are cherished. Taking care of beautiful creatures that love us and make us their whole world is a gift. They deserve kindness, compassion, and respect. I love all animals as an extension of the love I hold for my own, and I can’t wait to meet yours and give them love and care.
“Dominique was amazing with my anxious old man. He usually takes time to warm up to new sitters but it seems like he felt comfortable right away. I got lots of picture and video updates and came home to a clean house and happy dog!”
“Yessica is great! She sends lot of photos & videos of her on hikes & adventures with our dog. I love that she goes above & beyond to bring him on fun outings. She is also very trustworthy & errs on the side of caution if encountering new situations with our dog. She leaves our house in the same condition we left it for her in, which I appreciate.”
“Rachael was prompt, kind, and communicative throughout the entire time she watched our dog. She continually updated us with pictures, walk routes, and details about how our dog was doing. I highly recommend her and will absolutely be using her services again.”
“I'm a person with really high standards and I was impressed with Emilie. She can be quiet and a little shy at first, but ultimately is incredibly communicative. She cares a lot about getting the details right and I truly appreciated how much it mattered to her to understand our directions as clearly as possible. She's the kind of person that is observant to the nuances of animals. And our cats took to her right away! I would undoubtedly hire her again. She's a gem.”
“Alejandra was fantastic! She showed up on time, interacted well with the dogs, sent us many updates including pictures and videos. It was comforting for us to know that our dogs are being taken care of in the same fashion that they normally are. This was our first time using Rover for overnight and we were very pleased with Alejandra.”
“Jennifer is the ABSOLUTE best. Our pup has a true staycation with her each time she watches her. I always trust her and know our dog is in good hands when we’re away.”
“Madeline was such a great doggy sitter! I have two pups, both with their own special personalities (one is a little shy and anxious and the other is a little reactive to strangers). She came to do a meet and greet so they would feel comfortable the day of, and she was so patient and sweet with them. She was very attentive and listened to all the details we were sharing with her. She seemed super confident and experienced. For the day of (we were actually getting married!), we did not have to worry one bit about them and she sent us many cute pictures to update us on how they were doing. They looked at ease :) Would definitely recommend her and will contact her again if we ever need a dog sitter. :)”
About: I have been taking care of my friends doggies for a few years. Just thought I could continue to do so and also make money. I am a graphic & fashion designer. I am currently working from home part time meeting a few time a month. My schedule and hours are pretty flexible. I would preferred making visits to the clients/pet's home. It is more convenient, less stress for the owner and pets since they are use to their environment. I'm also open to staying over there as well if requested.
“Traci was great with our 12 week old puppy. This was his first time being away from us and she made him feel right at home in his routine. She sent lots of photos and made us feel super at ease. Sokka had a great time with her- highly recommend!”
“Liency was very kind. She listened to all of our dog/home needs and wrote them down with intentionality. Kept our home clean, and even left us some yummy homemade pumpkin bread for thanksgiving :'). Our dog is a senior rescue and it seems she was very cautious and intentional to make our dog feel safe and warm up to her naturally. She asked if we wanted and sent us photos regularly which I really loved.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been one of my greatest passions. My love for pets runs incredibly deep, and I truly treat every animal as if they were my own. Professionally, I have over seven years of experience caring for both dogs and children. For the past five years, I’ve provided reliable dog sitting services, and throughout college I worked for an established babysitting and pet care company. I’m happy to provide references upon request. In addition to professional experience, I grew up caring for my neighbors’ pets whenever they were away, giving me experience with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who require extra patience, medication, and gentle attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I’d be honored to provide that peace of mind Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. My schedule is completely flexible, allowing me to accommodate feedings, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship. I understand how important consistency is for cats, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine and provide attentive, dependable care while you’re away. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible. I respect your home, keep a clean and calm environment, ensure doors and windows remain secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glendale
Clare is and has always been special. We are repeat clients of hers and have come to expect her excellent communication, attention to detail, and love for our pets. Our most recent trip took our love and appreciation for Clare to another level. Two out of our three pets were sick, one had to go to the emergency vet, and there were some complicated care instructions. Clare showed us and our boys such compassion, diving right in to take care of every last thing and then some. I can’t really put into words what it meant to us, so I’ll just say that Clare is incredible, I trust her implicitly, and your pets would be lucky to get time under her care.
Alexandra is awesome! While she was house sitting, one of our dogs got skunked and the other had to be taken to the vet for a vaccine, and she handled both situations like a pro. She sent lots of pics & updates and was always quick to respond (which is important to me because I’m a worrier when I’m away) and the house was perfectly tidy when we got back. Highly recommend!
Brigette was so good with the kitties! She played with the kitties a lot and kept our babies happy while we were out of town. She was as great at communicating everyday to update us on them and how they were adjusting, and when we got home, the cats looked happy to see us but also in a great mood! Would definitely book her again in the future!
Lilit was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond in taking care of Churro while we were on our Cruise. Lots of walks and loves shared in pictures during the week. I felt 100% confident in have her watch our baby and my home. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her if you are looking for someone dependable that will love your pet.
Sophie was wonderful with Reggie. I was anxious leaving Reggie as he had pain in his hind legs before our trip. She had no problem administering medication when Reggie needed it. She was attentive and followed his feeding instructions, and cleaning him after his walks. She gave us regular updates with photos. We had some issues with our smoke alarm and although she was out, she returned home quickly to check on Reggie and the house. Reggie loved cuddling with her - he is quite picky :). I would definitely hire her again! Thank you Sophie for your care for Reggie and giving us peace of mind on our holiday!
Hailey was seriously the best. She watched JoJo while we were in Dallas for a wedding and we could not have asked for a better sitter. We got to meet Hailey before the trip and had her over for dinner to get to know her, and we felt so good about having her watch JoJo. She was so kind, easy to talk to, and you can tell she really cares. While we were gone, she was amazing. She communicated with us the whole time, sent so many pictures, fed JoJo on time every day, played with her a ton, and followed all of our instructions really well. JoJo looked happy and comfortable the entire time, which meant so much to us being away. Honestly, Hailey went above and beyond. She wasn’t just “watching” JoJo, she really spent time with her and cared for her. We are so thankful for her and would absolutely book with her again. Cannot recommend her enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glendale on Rover is $72.15 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 14,429 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Glendale. 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 Glendale 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 Glendale 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 Glendale 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.
