“Ashley is so helpful and so kind. My senior dog is downright high maintenance, and she took special care of him and the others, too. Highest recommendation!”
“Taylor was great to work with. She communicated during her stay at our house about our dog who takes many medication and how he was doing. Even sent us a great picture of him lounging on the couch. I would recommend her highly.”
“Sydney was completely wonderful! Our dogs loved their time with her. She took Louie on a hike and on several walks in a nearby woods. She sent us photos of them , both on walks and when hanging out together. It was clear that she had done everything that we had asked- and much more.”
“McKenna was incredible! My picky dog loved her right away, and she navigated his separation anxiety so lovingly and effectively. Her knack and intuition with animals shows. She was extremely communicative, clear and thoughtful at every step. Can't wait to book her again!”
“Keri is THE BEST!! Our dog is a bit shy around humans and it was honestly stunning how quickly they became friends. Not only was Keri extremely responsive when we were setting up this last minute booking, but she kept us updated regularly throughout our entire trip. It was clear that she showed him so much love, taking him on adventures and cuddling with him. We could tell Keri really understood his unique personality and she made our trip completely worry-free. When we got back, our house was even better off than it was before. If I could give 100 stars, I would!!”
“Caitlin was amazing! It was obvious that Ollie and Daisy loved her. She was very accommodating and took care of our pups with love and kindness. I would ask Caitlin to watch Ollie and Daisy again in a heartbeat! Thank you Caitlin!!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my older dog for a quick trip but Sally was an absolute dream. Right off the bat she eased my concerns and my dog was very comfortable with her. It was clear she was highly knowledgeable about animals and definitely an animal lover! I'm very happy with Sally's communication and I can honestly say she went above and beyond for my fella. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my precious pup was being spoiled at home. Rest easy with booking Sally, she's a dream to have as a sitter!”
About: I love animals! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats so I have been exposed to the needs of animals since being a child. I have 2 of my own cats, Mushu and Micha, so I understand how hard it can be to leave them behind. Let me assure you that I will take great care of your cats and treat them like they are my own! I have 3 years of experience cat-sitting for families. I know how hard it is to find reliable care for your animals, that’s why I’m here to help! Hi! I am a college student who is home for the summer. I have a part time job, but I can easily accommodate visits. Please reach out, I would love to take care of your pet! In my home I feed, brush, and cut the nails of my cats. I also clean and change their litter boxes when necessary. I have some experience administering medicine, but only pills and tick medicine.
About: I have had animals (cats, dogs, gerbils, you name it!) all my life. They are what brings me joy no matter what. I love creating fun and loving environments for pets especially when they or their owners are anxious about being apart. After having to find my own sitters while moving to the Berkshires, I realized how wonderful it is to have someone you can trust to take care of your loved ones. I'd like to help be that person for you. I work in hospitality in Lenox part time (usually 10-6 with an hour break) 4 days a week. Would be willing to come by in the morning for a few hours, at lunch, after work and stay overnight if needed. In my home, I love my two boy cats more than anything! One is indoors and one is a mix. They are groomed often and always have a flea and tic collar. The boys get a small breakfast and then wet food at night. Jaylen usually sleeps at my feet and Oswald roams about until breakfast! Their litter is kept downstairs in an entire room of their own and they have their own food bowls away from each other and water is kept fresh and separate. Although I only have 2 cats right now I grew up training family dogs and am just as comfortable with them!
“Trista stayed overnight with our fur babies. She was so good with our 3 dogs. She put our mind at ease. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day. The pups were happy too :) Will definitely book again.”
“I cannot say enough about Claire. She took care of everything. In my opinion, tater ( the dog ) would rather live with Claire than me at this point. That’s how good she is with animals. 100% recommend her!!!”
“Brenna was an amazing pet sitter for us. We have two dogs, both seniors, and one with significant health issues. It is always hard to leave him but had our son's wedding in Canada to attend. Brenna sent constant updates and photos to ease our mind while away. They were very well cared for and loved. I would use Brenna again in a heart beat!”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats. My family was part of helping a farm when i was little, I got to take care of ducks. They were so cute. I love animals and let me know if you had questions. I work at Marshall’s. I will be taking care of the animals during my days off. I will make sure they have everything they need I grew up with cats and dogs. I love all kinds of animals. I will take good care of them. I can bring them to my house as well.
About: I have two chocolate labs at home. I have cared for these dogs for 8+ years, and I have also dog-sat plenty of my neighbors', community members', friends', and relatives’ dogs over the years. I love to adventure with my dogs, but I can accommodate whatever adventure means for each dog, based on ability and the owner's desire. Also, I have done training with my oldest dog, have experience giving medication upon the owner's instructions, and have sat with quite sick dogs (my attentiveness to needs in this department is high). Overall, excited to sit for you! And let me know if you have further questions for me! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pups! I’m available for watching on both weekends and weekdays when you need my help! I will have work throughout the week, but I can pick up times to watch as my schedule is flexible. I spend a lot of time with my dogs when they go outside, and I walk/run them every day. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I also have experience ensuring owners’ dogs receive their medications and the correct dosages. Overall, I can adjust to all your pup’s needs!
About: I have care and experience with dog`s for more than 20 years. From puppies to adult and elderly. From Chihuahuas to Great Danes. Training Puppies from indoors to out doors potty training and pee pads is a + ... I recommend my own pee pads for training purposes! I own only 1 dog presently. A Chihuahua, Blue Tic Hound breed. Weighing in at 5.8lbs. She is now 19 years young. Gets along great with cats & other dogs. I am retired, so no worries about time, just scheduling. First come first served, so to speak. I will not turn down a client or pet/animal owner unless the animal is a potential threat to my well being and health. I have experience administering medications to needed pets/animals and care of feeding, washing (shower/bath care) and walks. Play time is essential, especially for young to middle aged pets because of the energy they posses. There is nothing more happier than a tired dog to sleep happy dreams from exertive play time or a cat playing laser tag and cat and mouse games. : )
“We are so grateful to have found Kelly and Nabil! They are incredibly attentive, caring, and down to earth. We are already planning another trip knowing our dog will have such amazing care.”
About: I have been a volunteer at the Berkshire Humane Society for about 6 months now working within the kennel and have been trusted with friends and family's dogs throughout my life! I have personally trained both of my large breed pups and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs! <3 I currently work part-time from Fri-Sun so I have full availability throughout the week to play with your pup(s)! I will always find the best time and place to give your pets what they need. I am not able to bring pets to my apartment, but will gladly give them all the care and attention they need in their home, or out and about!
“Alyssa is great! My pets and home were well cared for. My dog gets pretty anxious when I go out of town but he seemed very calm and relaxed when I came back. He seemed like he had a great time with Alyssa!”
“Sophie took wonderful care of our two kittens while we were away on a long trip. Since it was our first time using a sitter, we were pretty nervous but she was very communicative and attentive which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell that she was going above and beyond to make sure they had lots of love and attention. When we came home, it was clear they had been well cared for—happy, healthy, and content. We’re so grateful and would love for Sophie to watch our girls again sometime.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glendale on Rover is $79.92 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 304 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glendale. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
