“Conrad was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was very happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and pictures were sent as requested. We will definitely be using Conrad’s services again in the near future.”
“Bree was very responsive to communication. We felt very comfortable with entrusting our furry kid to her care in our home for 4 nights. She was so respectful of our home that she asked permission before inviting a friend over and she left the place in great condition. We really appreciated the daily updates which included photos!”
“Morgan is a great dogsitter! I received lots of updates and pics while I was away. Beaux needed extra help because he had recently gotten surgery - he had to wear a cone and get meds and Morgan didn't skip a beat to take on these extra responsibilities. Will definitely book Morgan again!”
“Jade was so great with our 3 dogs and sent lots of pictures and videos. She left the house very clean and even left flowers for us. We will definitely be using Jade again!”
“So glad that Carissa was available to watch my babies for a long weekend! She was great with updates and pictures and I felt really good knowing she was there with them. She took wonderful care of my babies and my home, leaving my place so clean and nice. She’s a gem and I will absolutely use her again! Thank you Carissa! 🙏”
“Shannon watched our dogs for the first time last weekend on short notice and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, sent pictures of our doggies, and took them on walks and frequently let them out. Will definitely rely on her again soon!”
“We can’t say enough positive things about Alex! We don’t leave our dogs alone very often, and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a bit of a high-maintenance dog dad. On top of that, one of our two dogs is extremely anxious and usually has a hard time warming up to new people. Alex did a phenomenal job handling both the dogs and us 😂 She listened carefully to all of our instructions and tips and was incredibly patient and compassionate with them. Somehow she even managed to get our Mozzie to open up and make a new friend, which is no small feat. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which really helped put us at ease while we were away. It meant a lot to know they were in such good hands. We truly can’t recommend Alex enough and will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you, Alex, for the care and compassion you showed our dogs!”
“Would highly recommend Georgia! She stayed with my little man for five nights and did a stellar job. Lots of updates, left my apartment even tidier than she found it, and my pup seemed very happy when I got back. Thanks so much, Georgia!”
“Nautica was great with Cannoli! She was communicative and caring, I will definitely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Felecia was AMAZING and took incredible care of our pup and our home. It was especially helpful to know that over the holidays Poppy was cared for and loved by someone so thoughtful. Thank you again!”
“Helena was spectacular. I’m always hesitant using a first time sitter but she eased all nerves and let us thoroughly enjoy our vacation. She was punctual, communicative and attentive to all our and dogs needs/requests. We started with doing a meet&greet where my dog seemed quickly comfortable with her and her presence. She sent pictures, videos and updates throughout the day which were extremely appreciated. Oh it’s also embarrassing but must be mentioned she also left my apartment literally cleaner and more organized than we did. She’s an amazing sitter and will always be reaching out to her first when we need one. Couldn’t recommend more.”
“Noelle was the best! I’d had a previous bad experience with Rover a few years ago, so was hesitant to try again. After meeting Noelle, she gave me faith that there were still good people in the world who love dogs and work for Rover. Noelle was obviously experienced with dogs and got down on the floor to meet Bear. She stayed with him for several hours on 4 different occasions, took him for walks and was great company for him. Noelle is sweet and personable and I’d highly recommend her as a dog sitter. We appreciated her so much!”
“Dustin went above and beyond for my dog Tater! She was able to be flexible and come earlier than planned and also helped handle a surprise maintenance emergency with my apartment while house sitting! Great communication, sent lots of photos, and made me feel like I didn’t have to worry while I was away. 10/10 recommend!”
“Casey is absolutely so sweet and amazing. Having a 2 month old puppy who demands a lot of work and attention I was nervous bringing someone outside in. Casey was so thoughtful with everything I told you and keeping me posted throughout the day. Just over the phone I could already tell she was going to be so great to my pup and I’m so grateful to have met her and hired her. This is your sign to book Casey! She absolutely will not let you down”
“Stacie was exceptional. Competent, efficient, good with both dogs and cats, and the house was immaculate, which is not an easy feat with two giant indoor dogs and two cats. We recommend her highly and would absolutely book her again.”
“Kristen was great and kept us updated especially cause we have a younger dog who is still learning and gets some anxiety. She was very nice and helpful. Thank you again!”
“Tessa was great! She was responsive and took great care of our sweet guy. Our house was left clean, she asked to water our plants, and our cat seemed very well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use Tessa again!”
“We can't gush about Chloe enough. Attentive, responsive, kind and detailed, she is definitely an above and beyond caretaker. She was amazing at keeping Vada's routine, checking in with cute pics and sending consistent updates on how the day went. Our home was cared for and our pup was treated with tenderness and love. Her care was felt from miles away and made being away from our senior pup feel easier. We would happily book with her again and our pup Vada would agree!”
“Monica continues to communicate the perfect amount and makes excellent judgements calls about my senior dog's safety in this summer's extreme heat.”

I would recommend Maria soooo highly. She sat for our dog this weekend for the first time, and was the most updates of our dog I’ve ever gotten from a sitter. She’s truly amazing and left our home is amazing shape. She went above and beyond and even put up with our dogs incessant love for playing ball. Will definitely be booking again if she will have us!
Dan was absolutely incredible! This was our first time having him watch my dog, my brother’s dog, and my cat, and I genuinely could not have felt better about leaving them in his care. From the beginning, communication was great, and it was immediately obvious that Dan is a true animal lover. He took the time to get to know each of their personalities, gave them so much love and attention, and even asked if he could brush my brother’s Shepherd. He sent updates throughout the stay and, at the end, left me an entire hilarious and incredibly thoughtful “report card” for all three of them. He also went completely above and beyond with my house. He pulled the sheets, cleaned and wiped down surfaces, and left everything incredibly tidy. None of that was expected, but it was so appreciated after coming home from a trip. More than anything, I came home feeling like my animals had been genuinely cared for, not just watched. For the first time in a long time, I felt completely confident being away knowing that they were safe, loved, and in capable hands if anything happened. I would absolutely trust Dan with them again. Weller, Boomer, and especially his new best friend Luna give him an A+++.
We can't gush about Chloe enough. Attentive, responsive, kind and detailed, she is definitely an above and beyond caretaker.

Her care was felt from miles away and made being away from our senior pup feel easier. We would happily book with her again and our pup Vada would agree!
Katya is a sweet, competent and a fantastic communicator. I felt at ease leaving Mila for a couple nights with Katya in my home. Though she doesn’t dog sit at other people’s homes she made an exception since we had met Katya prior to this. Katya was reliable, very moving and focused on Mila and communicated consistently, sent me many updates, photos and videos. I highly recommend Katya who is clearly a dog lover and a responsible young woman. Thank you Katya! Mila & Tamara
Jenna was an amazing dog and house sitter! Very communicative and friendly, and conscientious and thoughtful of our home. When we arrived home, our dog, Felix, seemed genuinely attached to her and sorry to see her go! I would absolutely recommend working with Jenna, and plan to reach out to her again.
Jayden and her partner Annie could not have been better for us - both for our puppy and our home! They took excellent care of Rosie, provided us with steady updates about walks, play dates with their lovely dog Sadie, and more. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glendale on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,781 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.
