“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!”
“Monica was absolutely fantastic to deal with and made us feel so safe that our dogs were in good hands. This was by the far the most relaxed/least stressed we have ever seen our dogs when we came back from a trip. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Stacie was very loving and kind with our pups. She made us feel reassured that they were safe and taken care of. I would definitely use Stacie again the 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!”
“Michael helped out in a last minute situation and I’m so grateful. He was able to stay at my place and take care of my two pups. I have one that’s 6 months old and one that’s 5 that needed extra and to be carried down the stairs. He instantly put me at ease with how he engaged with them and how he communicated with me. He kept ne updated and shared many cute photos during the stay! I will definitely hire Michael again!”
“Danielle took great care of our boys and apartment while we were away. She gave us daily updates and adapted quickly to the nuances of our dog and cat. We would be happy to have Danielle back over in the future!”
“We had a great experience with Genelle housesitting our dog. She was punctual and provided daily updates with pictures while we were away. Even during a thunderstorm, she helped our anxious girl stay relaxed and cared for. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Sara and Erin did a fantastic job taking care of my two dogs and my chickens for the week! They were diligent, communicative and left the house spotless. Thank you!!”
“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.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we feel lucky to have found Stephany! She sent us thorough daily updates and photos of our boy living his best dog life. This gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our trip. Stephany was also respectful of our home and left it as she found it. We highly recommend Stephany and will definitely book with her again!”
“Hannah was so sweet with Yogi, she sent daily updates with pictures. She took great care of the house as well which was completely unexpected but very appreciated! Would 10/10 recommend and we hope to use her again in the future!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“Kelsey did a great job with our dog Pollo and I would certainly use her again. Before we went on vacation, I had planted a number of new small plants in our yard and also asked her to regularly water them. The dog and all the plants were happy and healthy when we returned!”
“Revann took care of our Kai for a long weekend while we were out on vacation. She is friendly, kept us updated daily, and followed the instructions we left her in our Kai care guide. 😊 She also respected our home, followed the house rules, and cleaned up before we returned. We highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”
“Joan was extremely communicative, provided regular updates, and went through rigorous security procedures to make sure her stay went smoothly. She left my home spotless, and Luna was extremely rested on my return. I love Joan and will use her for all my services going forward.”
“Angie gave us completely peace of mind while we were on an international trip. Being very picky of who watches our pups, we were completely satisfied and happy knowing they were taken care of with daily updates and photos. We can’t thank Angie enough!”
About: I had a dog my entire childhood and took care of her from when I was age 9-25 (yes she lived a long time!). Since then, I’ve watched friends dogs, spent time with them, and generally given any dog I meet an outpouring of love. I love hanging with them, walking them, pets, fetch — I can’t have a dog right now because my building doesn’t allow them, but I genuinely LOOOOVE dogs and would be stoked to hang with yours!! I work from home most days of the week and can schedule walks or dog visits around meetings. Additionally, I can do overnight stays as long as you have reliable wifi so I can work from your home :) I can’t host dogs at my home, sadly, as my building doesn’t allow them. However, at your home I intend to diligently follow your instructions about your dog’s care and rules to keep your pet safe and happy. I am also vigilant about keeping an eye on dogs to make sure they stay safe (and don’t get into mischief!), and that’s something I take very seriously.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glendale
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!
Andrew was phenomenal with our girls. We have one dog who is reactive to other dogs and a senior who is very high maintenance with several health issues, including advanced degenerative myelopathy. Our senior requires oral and topical medications multiple times per day, a special diet, use of a wheelchair to ambulate, a very specific 7-visit-per-day bathroom schedule, and manual stimulation to poop regularly. Andrew handled all of her needs over a weeklong stay absolutely beautifully. We came home to happy and healthy puppies and an orderly house. Couldn’t recommend Andrew more strongly. Absolute gem.
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!!
I needed a dog sitter for a few hours and it was on the fly- she responded quickly and was able to get me in the next day! Offered to do a meet and greet before hand, asked good questions, and was really helpful and attentive to my puppy, Nala. Will be booking with her again in the future for sure :) you can tell she really cares for animals and has experience. Thank you!!!

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.
