“Emily was AMAZING with my 3 pets. We have two huge dogs (mastiffs) and a skittish cat and she handled taking care of them perfectly. Our cat runs away and hisses at any strangers, but she warmed right up to Emily. My dogs also love her since she gave them so much affection and attention. She kept us updated throughout our trip, and she also cleaned our house and left it looking better than before we left for our trip. Emily rocks!”
“If there were 10 stars to give, Mayumi would get all. She was fabulous! She bathed my baby regularly, took her for walks, sent me photos and videos, and when I came home, my home was as I left it and Saji was in happy spirits, well-fed and healthy. I will definitely keep Mayumi as my prime contact for when I need someone to care for Saji. I highly recommend her!”
“Kairo is awesome!! We have a lot of anxiety leaving our dogs, especially since we work remote and they’re used to having us home all the time. She gave us multiple daily updates and sent pictures. Our babies were well taken care of!”
“Meghan clearly loves dogs and gave special care and attention to both of my needy dogs. She sent regular updates and I felt so comforted that they were safe and taken great care of!”
“Eucalyptus was fantastic, she was so patient with everyone, took time to make sure all the dogs felt loved, kept up with all the routines, and made it the least stressful she could for everyone. Definitely will be using her services again.”
“Marisa was a great fit taking care of our Rottweiler Kali. She was very confident initially meeting her and definitely gained full trust in a very short time period. We will definitely be using Marisa in the future. Thank you again Marisa.”
“Raquel was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Gracie and Rowdy! From the start, her communication was excellent—she kept us updated regularly and sent lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is incredibly sweet and clearly has a natural connection with animals. She bonded with both dogs right away and took the time to really understand their individual personalities and little quirks. It was obvious they felt comfortable and cared for in her presence. One of our dogs was dealing with some pretty bad allergies during her stay, and Raquel truly went above and beyond to keep him comfortable. She was attentive, thoughtful, and kept us informed every step of the way, which we appreciated so much. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would hire her again and again without hesitation. Highly recommend Raquel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dedicated!”
“Caleb and Sara were excellent with our pups Sunni and Cali! They sent me daily pictures and texts letting me know that things were going well at home. I felt reassured throughout my time on vacation. They took out our trash barrels and brought them back in and our house was left in the condition that I left it in. I would highly recommend Caleb and Sara! Thank you Rover, Caleb and Sara!”
“Is it possible to leave 6 stars?!? Erick was amazing. He came to the rescue on short notice & exceeded all expectations! He was responsive, great communicator & sent up pics & updates during the stay. The pups LOVED him! Erick will be top of the list for our future trips!”

Currently on break from college, I have a flexible schedule and am available any day of the week after 10 am. This allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for your pets, ensuring they receive the best possible care and company. I prioritize safety and trust when caring for pets in my clients' homes. I follow all provided instructions meticulously, ensuring that pets are comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I keep a clean and organized space, promptly clean up after pets, and make sure they have fresh water and food. I also engage them in regular exercise and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you’re away.
“Lili was wonderful with our boys, Ozzy & Luke. She communicated with us throughout the stay. She sent updates and photos of our pups, which we really enjoyed. She treated the pups and our home with lots of respect. We’re looking forward to her spending more time with our pups in the future. Lili is great, your fur babies will warm up to her immediately. 💛”
“I hired Kaylee to sit at my home with my Belgian Malinois with separation anxiety. I appreciate her quick responses thru the Rover App, and her willingness to arrive for an early morning appointment. We will definitely call Kaylee again in the near future.”
“Skylar is the sweetest most caring sitter! Jasper immediately wanted to snuggle up next to her. She sends frequent updates and adorable pics. Very thoughtful and kind individual who you can trust with your fur babies in your home!”
About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.
“I recently had the pleasure of using Maria as an all-day dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was very friendly and immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout the day, she provided plenty of updates, sharing photos and messages that showed how much fun my dog was having. It was clear that she genuinely cares about animals. I felt completely trusting leaving my pup in her care. I highly recommend Maria to anyone in need of a reliable sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,791 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Glenoak Hills. 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 Glenoak Hills 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 Glenoak Hills 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 Glenoak Hills 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.

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.
