âOne of the most important things when our family goes away is making sure we have a caring, responsible sitter for our dog, Bucky. Alyssa is amazing! We can go away and be certain that Bucky will be loved and cared for! We highly recommend her!â¤ď¸â

âAleksander was great with Charlie! He was attentive and provided feedback while we were away. Was respectful of our home and would not hesitate to book with Alek!! We will definitely be booking again!â

âKathryn was awesome and very professional. She kept me updated throughout the day and made me feel very much at ease. Katie took excellent care of my dog (Ruben). I would highly recommend Kathryn!â

âThis was the first time we ever used the service for a week while we were away for vacation. From the first meeting with Alexis we knew Charlie would be in great hands. He had taken to her instantly and it was obvious her love for dogs. She kept us well informed throughout the week with text messages and plenty of pictures. Alexis was very respectful of our home and we returned to it as when we left it. It was such peace of mind knowing that Charlie was able to stay in his comfortable environment and keep his familiar schedule while we were away. Alexis was mindful and wanted to make sure Charlie kept to his familiar daily routine. She was an absolute pleasure to have worked with and we have no regrets. We will most definitely use her again in our next need . We would highly recommend her to anyone needed dog sitting. Thank you Alexis for taking such good care of Charlie!! The experience was more than we expected!!â

About: I currently have an 11 year old Rottweiler mix who is battling cancer. I am doing this to help pay for her treatment. I will love every dog like my own and show them true care. I work full time during the week but am available every day but Saturday (am flexible). I am available in the evenings and on Sundays. I have experience with crates, fences, and gates. I have a strong attention to detail and will make sure to be vigilant for anything your pet may need.
âKiara did a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat last weekend, keeping them on a good feeding and walking schedule, hanging out with them, and providing medicine to my cat. She was responsive in a very timely manner, keeping me posted on how things were going throughout the weekend, with texts ad photos. My house was in perfect shape when I got home and my dog and cat were happy -- the best evidence that they had been well cared for and completely at ease with their sitter. Thanks, Kiara!!â

About: Iâm a lifelong dog lover offering calm, attentive care in a comfortable, dog-friendly home. I live in a private residence with a fully fenced yard and host one dog at a time. I will accommodate 2 dogs from the same household. Iâm a responsible, professional pet sitter with years of experience caring for dogs. To maintain a peaceful and safe environment, Iâm best suited for calm, trained dogs who are comfortable around people and other dogs, so everyone can enjoy a relaxed and happy stay. I work from home with a flexible schedule. My schedule can be modified to accommodate my clients needs. I love walking dogs for daily exercise I have a fenced yard so your dog will be safe going outside. I am trustworthy and dependable. I value privacy, and I always respect other peoples space. I live in a smoke free environment, clean and free from harmful elements.
âI've had Peter petsit for a year or two now, and he's fantastic. He's responsive, timely, trustworthy, and communicative. You can tell he really cares about the animals and treats them like family. Peter goes above and beyond, and he's helped us with a crisis or two while we were out of town. He did really well with my reactive dog (who loved him despite being aloof with most people) as well as my new puppy. Peter is my go-to for pet care and once you hire him, I'm sure he'll be yours too!â


About: Iâve been taking care of animals since I can remember, however, a few years ago I took over on my own. My mom and I would watch animals for neighbors, family, and friends, and Iâm honored to take over that roll for the both of us as a responsible, reliable, and caring pet sitter. Iâm a college student, so Iâm typically in Blackwood from 8:30 am to 2:00. I also have a morning weekend job in haddon heights, but that is no longer than 5 hours every other weekend or so. My pets at home are loved, happy, and healthy. Their safety is more important than my own, actually. I believe that you should leave a space nicer than you found it, which is why Iâm a fantastic house guest. I will always respect your space

âReggi is by far THE BEST dog sitter in the world. She understood my dogâs pre-existing conditions and his anxiety as a result of his rescue. She has consistently striven to keep me up to date as often as I asked-and I would not trust my dog (aka my baby) to anyone else. I will continue to work with Reggi moving forward and Iâm so glad to have met such a wonderful person who truly loves what she does as much as we love our pets!â
About: Iâve had dogs of all sizes throughout my life, and pet sat for many friends! Friends know I am reliable, and will always prioritize your animals Iâm currently working full time, and looking to make some money on the side doing what I love! My schedule is flexible, meaning I can work around you and your pets needs to make sure they are getting the best care. I have 3 dogs of my own, and have plenty of experience with feeding, playing, and crating dogs. Because all our dogs have been rescues, I also have experience with puppies, untrained dogs, and dogs who aren't perfect on leash.
âCassidy was wonderful! She was patient and kind to my two pups who take a little longer to warm up to others. Her daily updates were perfect and she treated our pups like her own. Our home looked the same as we had left it as well!â


âMelissa watched our puppy for about 5 hours in the evening. I was initially nervous to have someone watch our young 10 week old puppy who had only been living in our house for a couple weeks. We also had our puppy on a schedule for naps, potty, and play time. But Melissa immediately put my nerves at ease when she came to our house for a meet and greet a couple days before. She welcomed all the detailed information I provided about our puppy's schedule, asked questions and was more than happy to stick to our puppy's routine. When she arrived, she was so appreciative of some last minute details I wanted to share before leaving. The night went smoothly and she was so attentive and caring to our little girl! She kept to our puppy's schedule and even sent us pictures while we were gone. She even put our puppy to bed in her crate before we got home because she knew her bedtime was at 11pm. Melissa was so easy to get to know, friendly, trustworthy and took incredible care of our puppy! I must also add that she was agreeable to watch our puppy while my in laws babysat our children at the same time in our house! That is huge! We will 100% be booking with Melissa in the future!â

About: Hi! I am a full time biology teacher who has her weeknights, weekends and summers off to hang with your fur babies đž While I was getting my teaching degree, I worked part time at Petsmart in the pet care department where I gained valuable knowledge for the needs and wants of pets. I currently have a Bernese Mountain Dog and 3 Torti cats ages 8-11. I have always had dogs and cats growing up of all sizes so no fur baby is too small or too large for some cuddles! I have also had some not so common pets like hamsters, fish (fresh and saltwater), frogs, turtles and even an Eyelash Crested Gecko! Being a teacher I have learned how to be compassionate, caring and unbiased and I carry these traits into my pet services too! All fur babies deserve to be loved and cared for with the utmost respect and compassion. My fur babies mean the world to me so I will always make sure your fur babies are cared for how I would want my fur babies cared for when mom is not around. I hope you donât mind me spamming you with cute pictures of your furry loved ones while I am hanging out with them. I believe you can never have too many pictures to capture all of the silliest moments with your âfurâever family members đž During the school year, Sept - Early June, I can work weeknights after 4 and weekends all day. For the summer months I can work Late June - August any time frame. đď¸ I am cautious about making sure all doors are locked and fences are locked so no fur babies can make a jailbreak. I am well versed in using different types of harnesses and how to correctly apply them. I always make sure to bring a portable water dish just incase your fur baby needs a drink mid-walk and I make sure to thoroughly clean it between each use. I require to have an emergency contact person in case of an emergency and would like to know what vet/emergency vet you prefer. A meet and greet with you and your fur baby is always the best way to start a fun and safe relationship!
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of experience handling dogs of many breeds and sizes, with a specialty in small dogs. I understand that leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so my #1 priority is providing a safe, structured, and fun environment while you are away. I am trained in canine first aid, experienced with high-energy small breeds, and skilled at administering medications. I treat every dog as if they were my own, sticking to their regular feeding and walking schedules to keep them happy and reduce anxiety. I am extremely communicative and will send you detailed daily updates with plenty of photos so you can enjoy your time away worry-free. My daily routine is incredibly flexible and built around your pet's needs. Whether I'm staying overnight at your house or just doing daily drop-ins, I offer early morning, midday, and evening visits with ease. For extended stays, I simply bring my laptop and work remotely from your home. This means your pets get constant companionship, plenty of potty breaks, and your house stays occupied for as long as you need me there. I know what it's like to lose a pet, so safety will always be my number one priority. Trust and security go hand-in-hand with my remote work lifestyle. Since I'll be in your home for extended periods, I can actively keep an eye on both your property and your pets. I take my responsibility seriously: I'll bring in your mail and packages, water your plants, and clean up after your pets daily. I am meticulous about locking doors and windows behind me. I will closely monitor your pets for any subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or illness. I always aim to leave your home exactly as clean, if not cleaner, than I found it.
âSarah was fantastic! She did such a great job with our dog. He has some special needs and Sarah was on top of everything. She spent a lot of time with him, played with him and sent us a lot of updates. She was very quick to respond to all of my communications. I look forward to having her watch our dog again when we need to travel.â

âQuanece and Malik were great--once again! They are very good with our quirky and anxious animals. They communicate as needed and treat your home like they would their own. Very clean and respectful of the space. We will absolutely use them again and again. No complaints!â

Bridget was very helpful on short notice when I needed an overnight pet sitter for my anxious Doberman. She sent me a lot of pictures and updates throughout her stay with him. Made me feel like she genuinely cared for him and made me feel at ease while I was away.

Ashiera watched our two dogs in our home while we were away. She was amazing! Our pups were well cared for and so happy and comfortable with all the attention they received. Ashiera was wonderful and kept us updated with messages and photos which gave us total peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend!

Sarah is great. I needed an in home sitter last minute and she was very accurate to that. My dog can be very anxious and shy around new people, but he warmed up to them very quickly during the meet and greet. Next time I need an in home pet sitter I will use Sarah again.

Thanks Alyssa for taking care of my babies. I always feel comfortable traveling when she is with them. My home was tidy after her stay, and most of all my girls were happy and content. Merry Christmas and a very happy new year! Will stay in touch for my next adventure!â¤ď¸đ

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Glendale is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $80 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 petâs 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 November 2026, there are 5,093 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glendale. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
