âGrace was amazing! She communicated with us and sent pictures during our time away. Our dogs were very well cared for and were exhausted when we arrived home. Would 100% use Grace again! First Rover user and I couldnât have been more impressed with everything!â

âI had to go out of town for a few days and needed a boarding kennel for my 70lb lab. My kennel that I have used previously closed down operations so I needed to find someplace new. I couldn't find any place I liked so I started searching online for someone to care for my dog at their home. That is how I discovered Rover. I found Charles on Rover and rather than keeping my dog at his home he offered to come stay at my home. Which for me was the best possible outcome. It worked out great. Charles was very respectful of my home and my dog liked him. If I have to board my dog again, Charles will be my first choice. I highly recommend him.â

About: Iâve been around dogs my entire life and have experience providing overnight pet and house sitting for stays ranging from a week to 10 days at a time. Iâve also helped family and friends with basic dog training and behavior support. As a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely enjoy the companionship dogs bring and love keeping them active, engaged, and happy through walks, outdoor adventures, hikes, playtime, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. As a small business owner with a flexible schedule and a few part-time commitments, I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Iâm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, cat care, feeding, and house sitting, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. While I occasionally need to step away for client appointments, I am typically gone for no more than 4â5 hours at a time and always make sure pets receive timely meals, potty breaks, exercise, and attention. I appreciate advance notice whenever possible so I can plan accordingly, though I may be able to accommodate same-day requests depending on availability. When caring for pets, I like to take time to get to know each animal and build trust at their own pace. I believe every pet has a unique personality, so I try to follow their lead and create a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and secure. Depending on the petâs needs and temperament, I provide enrichment through playtime, walks, outdoor time, and plenty of affection. Whether a pet is energetic and social or more reserved and independent, my goal is always the same: to ensure they feel cared for, content, and as comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
âI recently had the pleasure of having Alexandra come to my home to take care of my golden retriever, and 2 maine coons. We went on a 5 day vacation and Alex took great care of my home and fur-babies, she sent lots of pictures, and responded to text immediately. She fed the animals on time and kept the litter boxes clean, I came home to a clean house and happy pets. Thank you Alex! I will definitely be contacting you for our next vacation.â


About: I've been caring for dogs, mine and other people's, since I was about 12. I have owned 2 wonderful Labs and have cared for everything from Chihuahuas to Dobermans. I have experience dealing with behavioral issues and teaching puppies their manners, and everything in between. I have a calm, assertive training style, but I know the importance of a nice fetch and cuddle too! I am happy to adapt to any special needs or medical issues your dog might have, and can administer whatever medication they need. I'd love to meet your pup and go for a nice walk! My schedule is very flexible! I'm new to NH so I'm looking to add some new dog friends to my life. With a couple days notice I can accommodate most requests! Safety is the #1 priority for both me and your pets. Caring for pets on their home turf helps to keep them comfortable and secure. On walks in the neighborhood I focus on leash manners and getting your dog's brain to work so they're ready for a nap when we're done.
âLiz did an amazing job with Gizmo. She entertained her and got her out for fresh air several times during her watch. I would have Liz watch Gizmo again if Iâm ever in the area.â

âSarah was communicative, flexible and personable. Our dogs took to her immediately and Sarah was able to watch them at our B&B for an extended period of time. Sarah sent pictures, kept us informed throughout the evening and prepared the dogs for our return!â

I am available weekends and love to get outside (ideally with a dog). On weekdays I am happy to work around my class schedule to make sure your dog has plenty of care and time outside! I live in an apartment but have grass area outside. I also love taking dogs for walks or hikes. I am happy to take care of clients households as well, keeping the area clean, animals fed and walked, and plants watered.
âDanny was awesome with our German Shepherd mix rescue pup! She can be timid around new people and she warned up to him very quickly! He was responsive and sent photos and updates! Weâll be using him as a sitter again soon!â

âSue was communicative and it was obvious that our pup was well cared for in our absence. She left our home in great condition as well. We very much appreciate her calm presence, particularly with our anxious doodle. We would definitely book with Sue again in the future.â

About: Starting at 15, I began petsitting for families in my neighborhood and continued until I moved away after college. During college, I was employed at PetSmart as a bather, so I am well trained in basic nail trims, sanitary trims, and expressing anal glands. I have worked as a veterinary technician for the past 3.5 years. Because of this professional training, I am able to administer medications that your pet may need as well as provide attention to important behaviors. I have full availability during the week and weekends for drop in visits and walks as well as overnight stays in your home. I cannot do boarding in my home as I have my own animals to care for at home. I provide optimal comfort and exercise for your pet along with regulating their meals and medications (if necessary). I am also able to provide light grooming and nail trimming for dogs and cats.
âWe couldnât be more grateful for the amazing care Trie provided for our 13-year-old Maltipoo. He has a tough time with separation anxiety and often struggles with eating when we're away, but Trie was absolutely incredible with him. She stayed by his side, took him on several walks a day, and knew exactly how to encourage him to eat. Trie sent us frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. For the first time, we were able to truly relax on vacation knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, kind, and attentive â exactly the kind of person youâd hope to find to care for your pet. Weâll definitely be booking with her again for any future travel!â

About: Hello! My name is Alexandra and I would love to take care of your pup. I have grown up with boxers my entire life and constantly dog sat other pups as well. Having someone care for your pet is personal and I understand that. I am a true dog lover and love going for walks and playing outside (although I may give too many cookies)! In the summer I also love taking pups swimming if thatâs what they like to do! I look forward to helping you and your pet get the care and service that you need. My schedule is flexible and I am generally available in the Derry and Concord areas. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. I look forward to meeting your pets! I care for your dog the same way I care for my own. I am kind but can also be stern, if necessary. Although I am not a trainer I will use consistent key words with your pup to achieve a most efficient and safe visit. I currently work full-time. Therefore, I am mostly available early mornings and late afternoon/evenings during the week. I am most available on weekends. Depending on location I can stop in and go for walks midday as well. We have enough space to play inside but I also love going for walks. I have a small fenced in yard but am more likely to take your pup to the park or a walk on a nearby trail.
âLani was great taking care of our two senior dogs that have special needs. One is blind, requires medications, and wound care; the other one canât hear. Lani handled it all with ease and professionalism, communicated well, and the dogs seem very comfortable. Highly recommend!â

FAQs for House Sitting - Glendale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glendale on Rover is $88.8 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 253 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 sitterâs 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 homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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
- 90% 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.
