“Aksana was wonderful with my pup! She was very communicative with me both before and during the drop-in, and made sure to send me lots of photos and updates. She was very attentive and sweet with my pup at the meet & greet, and I knew that I could trust her to follow all of my instructions and give him lots of love. I will definitely be contacting her again! :)”
“Michael was fantastic! He gave my husband and me updates on Ringo and sent pictures! I think Ringo was very happy and we'lldefinitely hire Michael again to hang out with Ringo!”
“Megan was incredible!! She sent us videos and pictures of our kitties every day and gave us an update on her visits. She gave us peace of mind and listened closely to our instructions and descriptions of both of our cats with different personalities. We couldn’t believe that our skiddish/shy cat allowed her to pet her! Thank you Megan for showing love to our kitties while we were away!”
“This is our second time having Traci as a babysitter for our cats and we couldn’t wish for a more wonderful and caring person! We are so happy we found her that I hope she is always available to help us out whenever we’re out of the city!”
“Irina was AMAZING. I was out of town when my sitter could no longer care for my animals and Irina stepped in last minute to help. She was on time, took a ton of pictures, and updated me constantly. I was initially stressed because I didn’t have anyone to care for my animals but Irina made the experience stress free. My animals were well taken care of and loved. I would absolutely use and recommend Irina to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.
“Alex was a fantastic caretaker for our two cats. He followed instructions to the T and left very detailed notes and plenty of pictures everyday, giving us assurance and ease while we were away. We will happily work with him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a responsible, caring guardian for your pet.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid! I’ve interacted extensively with large and small breeds of dogs, and felines of all types. While I’ve always loved caring for cats, last year I got my first dog CeeCee and have found a unique love for canines. I trained my dog through Anthony at URBANK9 here in LA and take her to the dog park to socialize weekly. I keep my 2br home quiet, cool (central A/C), and clean. I work remotely during the day and on site some nights so I will be able to take your doggy out multiple times during the day and once more before bedtime. Weekends are similar schedule. I have one friendly dog who will keep your pup entertained. I can crate my dog (or both) during feeding and sleep if necessary. Safe dog friendly neighborhood with lots of grass available I keep guests to a minimum while sitting. I do not let the temperature get over 77 in the apt (will turn on a/c) if needed to maximize your baby’s comfort.
About: I’ve had my anxious baby boy black cat since he was a little foster kitten in 2020. I also grew up with a crazy maltipoo, birds, turtles, and more, so I’m very comfortable caring for all types and personalities! I’m currently working part time as a nanny for human babies, so I have plenty of odd hours to help with your fur babies too! I’m happy to follow any safety and care instructions you have. I can play with more social animals or be gentle and quiet with more anxious pets.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. From looking after neighbors’ dogs to caring for friends’ cats, I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves personalized attention, patience, and love. What sets me apart is my experience with senior pets and those who require extra care. I had a dog who lived to be 15 years old and needed special attention as she aged, which taught me the importance of patience, gentleness, and understanding. I also have a 7-year-old cat of my own, so I’m very familiar with feline care and behavior. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxing environment, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I am currently going to school full time (online), so I am available throughout the week to walk, play, and care for your pet! I can work with your schedule. I have a fenced back yard, a cat at home who is comfortable with dogs, and the availability to take your pet outside for play time or restroom needs whenever they need to.
About: I've had 4 dogs of my own and shadowed at an animal hospital in college. Embarassing story: I used to talk to and sing to the animals that were recovering from surgeries. I considered vet school for several years before deciding on a different path. I love cats as well and have cared for several cats. But I love animals more than I can say. I work full time from home and I also take a few classes during the week. So my schedule is flexible and I have my own car. I live in an apartment in a very safe area. We have our own security and a prevalent police department. My area is very clean, dog friendly, and very safe to walk in, even at night. I do not have a yard so any dogs (especially larger dogs) need to be comfortable in an apartment.
“Sara is the best!!! She is such a thoughtful and considerate cat sitter. Our foster cats have opened up even more under her care while we're out of town. It's comforting to know they have someone so loving with great attention to detail looking after them. Thank you Sara!”
About: I have been pet setting for over six years! I love dogs, cats, and basically everything in between. I just like to be in their presence! Currently, I work part-time so I’m very free to take care of animals! I’m looking to build a trustworthy clientele of pet owners to help out in Los Angeles <3 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. In your home, I respect your space and follow all care instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have volunteered at humane societies for a few years mainly as a dog kennel ambassador. I also have experience with bigger dogs, puppies, and senior dogs! In fact I have had a yorkie since he was a pup and a childhood dog of 15 years! I have taken care of bigger breeds such as husky/wolf mixes and very small dogs such as chihuahuas. Not only that I also have a cat! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I am a college student and have most days free expect for Tuesday and Thursdays after 12pm. Any other day I’m available so don’t be afraid to book! I only do drop-ins and walks but when I am in someone else’s home I make it a priority to be respectful of your space and make sure nothing is moved around or messed around with.
About: Trust your beloved pets to a mature, responsible adult. I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. We can board up to two dogs at one time, but they must be from the same family home. I am a successful small business owner and I work out of my home. I live within convenient probity proximity to downtown Glendale and the 134 freeway. Each visiting dog may arrive with a bed, blanket, toys or anything else you think necessary for them to enjoy a sense of stability and security. If requested, we're happy to send updates, pictures and videos to assure you that all is well with your pet. Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glendale
Let me start with I will rebook Yana definitely because now I can travel with peace of mind. She is reliably on time, messaging when on her way. She fed my cats timely, cleaned the box, and entertained them by playing with them, sending pics and videos twice a day. My babies LOVED her. Thank you Yana! I am so grateful.
Mackenzie was very thorough and diligent with her communication while we were away and sent us many photos and videos. She took excellent care of our two kitties, including one who needs oral medication, and adapted well to suit their behavior. Plus, the house was in great order when we returned. Would definitely recommend her services!
Vienen took such amazing care of my cat and kept me updated with pictures and a little description with each drop-in. ❤️ She also went above and beyond when she couldn’t watch my cat the whole time I initorequested so she connected me with another sitter and made that transition super smooth! Highly recommend her!
Anna did an incredible job taking care of my two cats! She followed their care instructions perfectly and provided them with tons of play and stimulation. On top of this, the photo updates she shared with me are stellar, true works of art! I highly recommend Anna if you’re looking for an excellent sitter.
Eileen was amazing! My cat immediately took a liking to her at the meet and greet, and I felt at ease knowing she was being taken care of by someone who not only loves cats, but has years of experience with her own. Eileen was super communicative, sent tons of photos (and even a bonus video!), and kept me updated on my chatty, playful little girl all weekend. She gave Manu so much attention and affection, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’d ask her back any time.
Emiko went above and beyond in every way while watching over our diabetic cat while we were away. She is incredibly easy to communicate with, is dependable and goes the extra mile when caring for pets. She provided thoughtful updates that reassured us everything was ok at home. We would recommend her without hesitation, and would happily have her look over our cat when we are away in the future. 10/10.
Yvette did such a great job taking care of my cat Ember! She was very communicative and even let me know if the apartment was getting too hot, etc. I have peace of mind when traveling knowing she’s in good hands, I would definitely book again in the future

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Glendale is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $43 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 19,736 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Glendale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glendale. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
