“I had a house full of guests the week prior to Cara's staying with my cat, Muffin. Muffin and I were both stressed by the time Cara arrived. When I returned from my week-long trip, Cara had helped Muffin get his zen back. Cara is a cat whisperer. I highly recommend her for all of your pet needs.”
“Laura was fantastic! Timely updates and pictures, genuinely loves animals, and takes great care of your fur kids and home giving you peace of mind while you’re away. 10 out of 10!!”
“Melissa is THE BEST. I cannot say enough amazing things about her and her ability to care for an animal. As we all know, our pets are our babies and she resonates with that! I received numerous photos AND videos of my pup every single day. She took time to take him to his favorite store and let him pick out a toy. Melissa has been my biggest blessing and BEST EXPERIENCE through this app and I couldn’t recommend her enough! I did not have a single worry while I was away on my trip! Thank you, Melissa, for having such a big heart for fur babies!!!! 🩵🩵”
“Alexandra did such a great job at taking care of our dogs in our home. They loved her and were very comfortable around her. She updated us through out the day and included pictures. We highly recommend her and we will be using her again.”
“Jeffery did a great job with my cat! I hired him for a short house-sitting stint and he did quite well. Cinnamon seemed to get along well with him, and he took care of her feeding schedule expertly. The extra tasks I needed (bring in mail, set the faucets dripping for the freezer warning, etc.) were handled. Everything was in order when I came home, as far as I can tell. I definitely plan on turning to him for his help if I need it again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10. My family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I would be a great help and it would be an honor!! I have 2 dogs & 2 cats of my own as well. I work remote full time in Marketing with a lot of flexibility. Because of this, I have a lot of time throughout my day to go on pet walks and bathroom breaks. Working remotely also allows for overnight stays when needed as long as there is a wifi connection! My dogs and cats are all fed day and night, played with often, and cared for as needed. I’m very experienced with animals so I know how to cater and take care of them well.
“Thomas was Fantastic! He made sure to send us updates and picks of our pups daily and made sure our house was taken care of as well. We would strongly recommend.”
“My pups were very happy in Brittany’s home. When I picked them up they were clean and happy. Brittany is very thoughtful and tried to cater to my pups personalities. She and her family are so sweet.”
About: Hi! My name is Elizabeth. I have my own cat who is 8 years old. I have also watched dogs and cats within the family for years. I am here for your animas needs I work a part time job right now and go to school. I can work around your schedule, weekends or weekdays. We can work together. I only have one indoor cat. But I will do whatever you need your animal to do. I will work around your schedule and do whatever you need me to do for your animal.
“Isabella is amazing! She took such great care of our nervous dog and you could tell they had a blast all weekend. Will definitely book with her again! Thank you Isabella!!”

“I cannot possibly say enough great things about our experience with Kelly. She was great with our last minute booking, sent lots of pictures and videos, and made sure my dog had the best time staying at her house. I originally had just requested a basic sit, but Kelly went above and beyond to make sure my pup had a blast.”
About: As mentioned, I work in vet med! I am experienced with all ages, temperaments, breeds, health issues, and needs! I love a couch potato but I also own and love a working breed. I understand the importance of routine & mental stimulation! I spoil my fur children & understand wanting to keep yours happy while you’re away, but also able to trust that they’re safe! I own a dog that is overcoming his reactivity & that has required a lot of training & positive reinforcement work from myself in the presence of triggers—so I understand the difference in reactivity/anxiety vs aggression. I work full time Fridays through Mondays currently, but I have full availability during the week on Tuesdays through Thursdays. I don’t mind early mornings or late nights I would never leave someone’s pet unattended while under my care. I like for pets to have my full attention when I’m there. It’s what I’d expect & would want for my own! I’m very familar with canine & feline body language, anxiety, & aggression, and I know how to appropriately and effectively approach/handle pets whether they’re scared, reactive, or excited!
“April is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her! My babies adore her, and she is so communicative while we’re away. Can’t speak highly enough about April and her exceptional level of care for our pups!”
About: As an animal lover, I've taken care of multiple animals since high school. The number of animals that where in my care ranged from dogs, cats, reptiles, hamsters, rabbits, etc. I currently have a full time job from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. I am available for check-ins, housesitting, and walks in the morning. I have a small apartment that is great for smaller dogs and cats to roam. I provide toys and have a friendly rabbit to keep them company.
About: I love all animals - big & small! I have consistently owned dogs and cats throughout my life and have had some non-traditional pets as well such as potbelly pigs, a duck, a chicken, various birds (mostly rescues), rabbits, fish, turtles, hampsters, guinnea pigs and more. I am self employed and I work from home (or anywhere) so I can take time out during the day to care for pets and animals. I am honest and trustworthy and I am available to visit client homes to care for their pets or host pets in my home, if needed. I am available to walk dogs, feed/clean up after pets and love them! I can also do house sitting and stay with your fur babies if needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gluckstadt
Do your pet a favor and hire Cara to pet sit. You will both be glad you did. Cara is kind, dependable, thoughtful and conscientious. She obviously has a way with pets. My cat was enthralled with Cara from the first meeting - headbutting her, rubbing up against her. And, from the pics Cara sent while I was away, my cat’s crush on Cara continued. I was away for nearly three weeks and returned to find a happy and contented cat. Thank you, Cara.

FAQs for House Sitting - Gluckstadt
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 83 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gluckstadt. 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 Gluckstadt 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 Gluckstadt 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 Gluckstadt 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
