“We had such a great experience with Dana. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated while we were away, which we really appreciated. Our pets were happy and well cared for, and our home was in perfect condition when we returned. It made traveling so much less stressful knowing everything was in such good hands. Highly recommend Dana!”


“Allison did a great job taking care of our senior dog, Bob Barker. It was our first time working with someone through Rover, and very happy we did. She stopped by to meet him before our trip and walk through his routine, then communicated with us during the trip. Bob and the house were in great shape and we look forward to booking with Allison again this month when we're out of town for another weekend.”

“Emma was great! She was extremely professional. She took amazing care of both my pet and my house while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be calling her again. Perfect all around.”

“Brandon completely went above and beyond to care for our two cats and home while we were gone for a week and a half! He asked thoughtful questions, followed all directions to a T, and often sent some greatly appreciated picture/video updates (and prompt responses). We were SO grateful to return home to find our cats in amazing spirits after clearly having some solid companionship, and to find our house exactly as we left it. Would absolutely book with him again!”

“Have had Nicole housesit twice with us. Each time she is prompt, extremely communicable, and able to navigate not only complicated instructions for each of our two dogs, but also how complicated our house is with codes, alarms and construction workers. She looked after my middle-aged slow Bichon who needs constant food and attention and our new rescue dog who is 10lbs of energy and desperate to escape. She handled them both with grace and sent lots of pictures and videos. I am happy to know I don't have to worry now when I travel!”


About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I’m an animal lover who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently part time working! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are a big part of my life. I make time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I have two cats of my own, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and providing companionship, even when owners are away. I’m able to incorporate pet care into my schedule by dedicating time for visits, walks, check-ins, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to provide reliable, loving care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, walks, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their routines stay consistent, so I do my best to make the experience as stress-free as possible. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm space where they can feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether at my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and loved.
“Tara is fantastic. She took care of our dog, cat, fish and frogs! We received photos every day. Questions when she needed clarification. Communication was important to us and she delivered. Highly recommend. We will hire her for our next trip.”

“Jenna was an amazing sitter for our dog Zeke and our house! We were gone for two weeks and Jenna made sure to keep in touch and send pics throughout that time. Her authentic affection for dogs was so clear from the first meeting. We’d absolutely book Jenna again!!”

About: I love dogs ever since I’ve as a child. I owned a beagle for over 15 years and she was my best friend and also part of the family. I miss having a dog but very glad there is a way to still enjoy the companionship and provide the best care to another. I will ensure your dog is cared for and all directions you provide are followed accordingly. I’ve cared for beagles, shihtzu, yorkie, Boston terriers, French bulldogs, various hounds, cavaliers, toy poodles, Siberian huskies and golden retrievers. My favorite activities are walks and maintaining your dogs cleanliness in the process by light grooming. In addition, I feed on schedule and ensure your dog is receiving adequate comfort. My schedule is open and can care any day do the week as I work from home and have the time and space for your dog. I have two fenced in areas in my yard as well as a garage space that opens into the house for easy access inside and out.
“I’m not kidding, I’m tempted to gatekeep but won’t because Alyssa deserves all the love and dog jobs in the world. Seriously, best dog sitter ever. Thoughtful, sent daily summaries and photos, my reactive dog was so HAPPY!!! I feel truly lucky to have found her. 10/10. She is the best. Will rebook again and again and again as long as she wants to keep watching pups.”

“Brooke is very courteous and conscientious and takes great care of Remy and our home. She has house sat a few times for us now and after she leaves, it’s as if she were never here.”

“Becky was absolutely amazing with our 10-year-old dog while we were away for a week. She gave our dog her medication reliably and sent us frequent updates and photos. This was our first time leaving Nala with someone who was not our family or friends but Becky took care of our girl like family. On top of that, she went above and beyond by caring for our home and helping with things like bringing in our packages while away. We came back to a happy, healthy pup and a clean home—couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Chris did a great job taking care of my dogs while i was away on a work trip. We did a meet and greet beforehand where he asked a lot of good questions. During the stay he kept me closely updated on how my dogs were doing and sent a lot of pics which was nice. Would definitely recommend. Professional and a big dog lover.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, with experience caring for breeds of all sizes. I have always had a natural ability to connect with dogs and have been comfortable handling and caring for them from a young age. Additionally, I have experience house-sitting and providing care for dogs belonging to coworkers, friends, and family members. My lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs allow me to provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every dog I look after. I am currently playing junior hockey, with practices scheduled Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I am fully available to provide attentive and reliable care for your dogs. My availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays varies depending on my hockey schedule, but I am happy to coordinate in advance to find a time that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while giving each dog plenty of attention, affection, and exercise suited to their needs. Having grown up around dogs of all sizes, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated on how their pets are doing for added peace of mind.

About: I have always had a very deep love for animals 🐈🐩and caring for them truly makes me happy, I am a very patient calm and loving person and I treat every pet like family. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats, including senior pets, blind pets, and pets that need medications or extra care. I also work in healthcare so I have knowledge in first aid and monitoring health conditions which helps me provide safe attentive and responsible care for every pet while making them feel comfortable loved and at home. I currently work part-time in healthcare, which allows me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I genuinely love making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to create a calm, caring environment where your pet feels at home, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I’m available on weekends, evenings, overnight stays, and most weekdays after work, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where every pet can feel safe and relaxed. I have two separate private rooms available if your dog or cat prefers a quiet space to rest, needs time to adjust, or if you request separate accommodations. I also have a very friendly cat who is gentle and comfortable around both dogs and cats. I have reliable transportation, so I can take dogs to nearby parks for walks, fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I have experience caring for senior pets, anxious pets, blind pets, and pets that require medication or extra attention. Working in healthcare has taught me to be attentive, patient, compassionate, and detail oriented, allowing me to closely monitor each pet’s behavior and well being. I will care for your furry family member as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved, comfortable, active, and stress-free throughout their stay.

About: I’ve had dogs growing up. As an adult I have had cats and dogs, many of whom had special needs. I have had two blind cats and cats and dogs with various chronic medical conditions. I also have a veterinary assistant certificate from Norwalk Community College and I have worked as a vet assistant. I am retired for now. This leaves me time to focus on your animals. I can do sleepovers as well as daily walks and home visits for cats. I cannot take pets in my home but can do walks and sleepovers in a clients home. If an owner has a fenced in yard and the dog likes going out in the yard I would go with the dog and not leave the dog unattended. If the dog is used to walks we would walk.
About: I'm Steven, a former science teacher who turned a lifelong love of animals into full-time pet care. I've cared for my own dogs for years (John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, my senior Chihuahua) and have looked after friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, and small pets for as long as I can remember. I'm Fear Free Certified and Red Cross Pet First Aid & CPR certified, and I'm fully insured and bonded. Teaching taught me patience, routine, and how to read what someone needs when they can't say it in words, which is exactly what good pet care takes. Every booking is handled personally by me, so you'll always know who's showing up at your door. I do this full-time, so your pet is a priority, not a side gig. For house sitting I keep your pet on their normal routine, same feeding times, walks, and bedtime, and I send photo and text updates throughout so you can relax while you're away. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly (I give my own senior dog her meds on a strict schedule, so I take it seriously). Every booking starts with a free meet & greet so your pet and I are comfortable before anything is confirmed. Since I come to you, your pet stays in their own home, familiar surroundings, their own bed and yard, which keeps them calmest, especially seniors and anxious pets. I treat your home with respect: doors locked, mail brought in, plants watered if you'd like, everything left as I found it. I have two dogs of my own, John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, a senior Chihuahua, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior care.
“Brandon was great! He came to meet us beforehand to make sure we were comfortable. Booch immediately loved him. While we were away he was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures. The house was also well taken care of. We would definitely hire him again!”

About: I have a yellow lab that is my whole world, and I spend a lot of my time at home walking, playing, feeding, and cuddling her. I have taken care of many of the local dogs in my town back in Connecticut, both as a walker and as a stay-in caretaker. I am a PA student in my last semester of grad school and currently on rotation in Greenwich. My day starts early in the morning, but I am typically done mid-afternoon and available for long walks and overnight stays! I’m very active myself, so I love to get my activity in with a furry friend! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care. I’ll follow your routines closely, keep a clean and secure environment, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate crating, feeding schedules, medications, and any other specific needs. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
About: I have always loved animals and have taken care of dogs and other pets for years. I even worked as a zookeeper for a short period of time! I studied animal law in law school and worked with the animal law clinic. I am available before and after work to walk dogs (Monday-Friday). I am available all weekend for walks or any other care necessary. I am looking to spend as much time with pets as possible :) I hope to offer your pets a fun and loving experience while dog sitting. This means making them feel comfortable and continue their routine. When I stay with a dog or cat, I make sure to treat them exactly how I would want my pet treated and loved.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Greenwich is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greenwich
Jennifer did a great job watching our dog while we attended funeral services for a beloved family member. Jennifer figured out quickly how to best care for our dog and it was a relief for us. She was very accommodating and positive. I will definitely contact Jennifer again when we are in the area. Thank you Jennifer!

Jasmine was terrific! Our boy Jack is a big insecure baby. He took to Jasmine right away. We went away for the first time able to leave Jack in his favorite environment, home. We got a photo everyday and correspondence on what was going on. Felt very much in touch. Thank you Jasmine. We will hopefully be able to book with you again soon.

Brandon took excellent care of Leo while we were away. He was professional and communicated well, took great care of our home and made sure that all of Leo’s needs were met. Leo loved cuddling with Brandon and especially appreciated the forest hikes! We’d highly recommend Brandon!

Anine stayed with our two Goldens and our two cats for a weekend. It was her first time staying with them and everything went seamlessly. She sent us several photos and the animals looked so happy and comfortable with her. She has a wonderful personality and took excellent care of the whole crew. I look forward to having her stay with them again (and I am sure they are looking forward to it too!
We needed a fill-in sitter for one weekend. Vinny got along with our pups and kitty really well and respected our home. I appreciate that he listened to our training requests with our youngest pup and not allowing him to jump. We had a last minute curveball with our oldest pup and she needed extra attention, she was well looked after. We felt at ease the entire weekend and came home to a calm, happy household.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Greenwich is $82 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $133 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 16,820 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greenwich. 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 Greenwich 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 Greenwich 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 Greenwich 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 Greenwich. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
