“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”

“Ebony was so kind and helpful throughout my dog baby's visit. She sent me tons of photos and updates while she had my baby. Baby(my dog) was well taken care of threwout her stay with Ebony. I'm so grateful for her, as she took my booking last minute since I had an unexpected family emergency come up. I will definitely use Ebony again in the future seeing as how amazingly she took care of what I consider a family member to me.”

About: I grew up in a house that was always full of animals and kids, so chaotic and energetic animals do not phase me, and I can adapt well to whatever care plan is needed for your loved one. As an example of this, the last two dogs I cared for were very different personalities. I took care of an elderly 14-year-old Jack Russell, who was a bit blind so would nip on occasion, and needed spoon feeding and consistent potty breaks starting at 6am. Conversely, most recently I did a house-sitting stint for an owner of a rescued 5 yo Pitbull mix that needed almost constant attention and good tiring play. I have also housesat for many cat owners in the past few years of ranging personalities and needs; some needing some attention and play, others just needing food and water topped up, while another needed me to help her clean herself as she couldn't go to the toilet. I know that there are people with strict routines, and I understand that getting an external sitter or a walker can really mess with the structure you are trying to create. I want to help build that, not tear it down. I pride myself in being able to use positive reinforcement as an effective disciplinary method. I do not bribe or abuse the animals entrusted to my care. I work remotely, so I can be very flexible to the needs of you and your animals. Let me know if you have any questions :) I currently work part-time and remotely, so I can be totally flexible to your animal care needs. In the case of early mornings of 6am and earlier, I would prefer to have the animals stay here or I stay at the clients' residence. I live on the second floor in an apartment building where everyone owns a dog. Having animals stay with me is no problem at all, but there is no yard, so for dogs it would be exclusively dog walking/dog park if they were to stay here. I can be totally flexible in sitting at a clients' home.

About: My goal is simple: to be the absolute best part of your pet's day! Loving animals is what I do best, and having owned dogs for over two decades, I know firsthand the immense joy they bring to a home—and how intimidating it can be to leave them in someone else's care. (I also have a 20-year-old fat cat, so I’m well-versed in all 27 feline moods and love them through every single one!) Let me take the stress off your mind so you can rest easy knowing your fur kids are in patient, loving hands while you're away. After stepping away from the corporate grind, I'm fully pouring my passion into pet care! I bring over two decades of hands-on pet ownership along with professional dog walking experience to make sure your fur babies get the love, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away. Safety is first! Collars and harnesses are fit checked before we ever leave the house. It's just as important to me that your pet is safe in my care. I check doorways before opening and closing, check areas for debris of any kind on the floor or in reachable areas that might result in a "not-so good time". Keeping your pet safe is my #1 goal.

About: I can show that I am committed to providing the best care for each pet by taking the time to get to know them. I am responsible. I can demonstrate experience by noting the breeds of animals you've cared for, any behavior challenges. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I am passionate about caring for animals. I am able to plan my schedule around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide consistent, loving care while keeping pet parents updated.🐾 I provide loving, reliable care for every pet as if they were my own. Depending on the service, I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure they have fresh water and a clean, safe environment. I am experienced with dogs and always pay close attention to their individual needs, personality, and comfort. I will also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel comfortable knowing their pet is being well cared for.🐾

About: I am the person at a party that hangs out with the pets of the house instead of socializing. I have pretty much always had a dog in my house. I am currently my dog’s secondary care giver but during the day I become the primary. I currently work a part time job that takes up my time after 4:30pm on week days and around 5:30-11:00 am on weekends. My Sunday’s will be free after the 27th though I can easily crate your dog if needed, I am pretty cuddly and also love playing with dogs. I am also an avid hiker and love long walks.

About: I grew up working at a dog kennel and have always owned dogs. Some of my best friends are trained professionals and I've learned a lot from them. I can do walks, playtimes and certain medications. I can do over nights just not at my house for the time being. I only work Saturday and Sunday but am Still available early Sundays and later after 9 as well as late (after 12am) on Saturday. My days are pretty open during normal pet care hours and outside of them. Dogs love me, and I understand dog body language. My dog was over 100 lbs and I can handle him just fine. I love dog play times and don't mind running with them to get energy out. I just love dogs and making money. Message me with any questions or concerns.

About: Ever since I was a young child I have been surrounded by and cared for pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and even some reptiles. I have experience caring for, and giving medicine to elderly dogs and can work with an animal if any size! I’m currently a full time college student, actress, and baker. I love animals and have been a pet parent my whole life. I am available all weekend and even some weekdays! I almost exclusively go off of the care instructions provided by the client, including any feeding, exercise, and medical instructions. In terms of walking I always care poo bags and water so that the pet is always taken care of!

Yanni was wondering with my super energetic Pomeranian. I was at ease while I was gone for 16 days, she made sure Gus felt comfortable & was being himself . She kept me updated on everything. I’ll definitely be using her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Glendale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Glendale is $21 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $35 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 November 2026, there are 1,407 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 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Glendale. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
