“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.”
“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!”
“Monica is truly a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our anxious senior pup! Monica took her on nice long walks, sent photos/updates daily, and left our apartment sparkling! I highly recommend Monica for all your pet sitting needs, we’ll definitely be using her 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!”
“Vlad is the best! Always available, always extra caring with my Murphy and takes great care of the house on top of A+ dog sitting. My go-to Rover sitter everytime. Thanks Vlad”
“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!”
“Dustin is absolutely outstanding - excellent communication, sent TONS of pictures and videos, and our two cats just loved her - even our extremely anxious/shy girl! We had total peace of mind while she house sat for us over a long weekend. We will absolutely be repeat customers!!”
“Andrew came over for a meet and greet which was very appreciated. He texted us updates each day and was a great communicator. Roux seemed very happy when we arrived home.”
“I felt peace of mind with Sarah and Erin watching our dogs. They were very communicative with me (in a good way) and attentive to the dogs. I would definitely recommend them and will ask them to sit our dogs again in the future.”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job taking care of our cat and dog. She sent a lot of photos and updates each day to ease our minds. Kaitlyn took our dog on outings to get her puppy energy out. It was amazing. From a home standpoint, she kept everything clean and even took out the trash/kitty litter and put all of her laundry in the laundry room. I will hire her again.”
“Stephany is a wonderful, trustworthy dog and house sitter. She went above and beyond to keep our two anxious pitties happy while we were away on our trip this weekend. She provided thorough updates each day with photos. Thank you Stephany!”
“Mary Helen watched our pup Frankie while we were out of town and we couldn’t recommend her more! She gave him tons of attention, played with him, took him on daily long walks even when she wasn’t feeling well and took great care of our apartment as well. Thanks so much, Mary Helen!”
“Brittany was so wonderful to our pups! She did an amazing job following our instructions and communicating with both me and my husband. I will have her back in a heartbeat if we need another sitter! She works from home so she was able to be with our pups consistently which is super important for me. Thank you Brittany!!”
“I can’t thank Ian enough for helping us with our one year old dog when we left town. I can tell Ian has been around dogs and he even gave me pointers about what to do when we take our dog on walks. Our dog is full of energy and he needs a lot of attention. Thank you Ian!”
“Minna was so kind, communicative, timely and flexible for us. We have a puppy with lots of energy and an old dog and Minna did an amazing job. Would absolutely want her to watch our pups again!”
“Mary Sue deserves more than 5 stars. She went above and beyond for our 3 hounds! We will definitely be rebooking for our future needs! She kept us updated multiple times throughout each day and gave us picture updates to ensure our dogs were in great hands! Our place was clean when she left and our dogs were beyond happy which is everything we wanted after coming back home from a long trip! Would definitely recommend Mary Sue and he will use her again in the future!”
“Chanel was wonderful, and I would definitely book her again to stay with our pets! She was highly communicative, sent updates each day while housesitting, and left our place spotless (she even took out our trash!). Our dog got plenty of walks and seemed happy when we got back. Thanks Chanel!”
About: I moved from AZ one year ago and got experience fostering dogs, volunteering at animal shelters, no-kill sanctuaries and have cared for friend's pets overnight. I am a full-time student, but my schedule fluctuates. Typically available every night after 5pm and free most weekends. Very flexible with timing, I want to make it work! I enjoy parks, walks and going for runs but also inside play and cuddles. Supporting all energy needs and personalities are important to me! I am open to getting a crate if needed.

Hannah took great care of our pups! She spent a lot of time with them and communicated frequently with us. We were at ease that they were well taken care of with her while we were gone. She also left the house in great condition. We will reach out to her again in the future!
Incredibly grateful to have crossed paths with Maegan! She stayed in our home for nearly 3 weeks, tending to our dog and cat, indoor and outdoor plants, and everything in between. We came home to happy pets, a clean home, and healthy plants. She stayed on top of checking the mail, taking the trash out, being available for packages, and all the small things that are easy to forget as part of looking after someone's home. She went the extra mile with administering oral medication and brushing our dog's teeth (no easy task). We will absolutely rebook her again!
Christina & Carlos were great! They took amazing care of our dog Walter, we knew he was happy and loved on while we were gone. They even put up with me being a needy dog momma which is not easy so we appreciated the communication and pics/videos. Would def recommend them to anyone looking for someone to care for your pup like they’re their own ❤️
Jenia was AMAZING! She took beautiful care of my home and even better care of my pup. Jenia was extremely communicative and sent regular (p)updates with pictures. I’d highly recommend her to anyone with a pet that has a special personality and requires a little extra love and patience.
Ruya is so sweet generally speaking, so that’s simply a bonus. We didn’t worry at all about our animals. She sent plenty of photos and went above and beyond with the walks and generally with attention to the young pup of ours and the cat. I hope they don’t expect more from me now, ha! We have already booked the next stay, whew! Don’t let the good ones get away.
Breeanna watched our pup Eska for the third or fourth time (can’t remember lol) but she is the best! We never worry on our vacation knowing our dog is in great hands. She’s awesome with consistent updates and our dog loves her - she’s always so calm when we get home. Don’t hesitate to book Breanna if you want a reliable and trustworthy sitter who really cares for your pup :)
Emmy was wonderful! She house sat with our dog ginkgo while we were traveling. She was an excellent communicator beforehand, she was flexible when we needed last second changes to our travel plans due to illness, she was reliable and sent us frequent photo updates. Our dog was very happy and relaxed when we got home. We’ll definitely try to book her again next time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Glendale is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $89 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 8,703 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
