“Davian was absolutely wonderful! He dogsat for our two high energy golden retrievers for a week. He was friendly, communicative, and flexible. We received the perfect amount of updates to know that the doggies were doing great, but also to be able to disconnect while on vacation. The doggies were so happy and the house was spotless upon our return. We will definitely use Davian again!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Whether that means going for walks, playing with their favorite toys, getting some exercise or simply keeping them company, I love being an extra buddy for your pet! I had a dog for seven years who was the sweetest companion, and after graduating college, I got a dog of my own. She's now five years old, and I love having her by my side. I also have experience raising puppies, as I brought my dog home when she was just four months old. I'm a flexible and dependable person who is happy to accommodate your pet's individual needs and routines. As long as we communicate ahead of time about scheduling and expectations, I'll do my best to be there when you need me. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a little more attention or specific care, I'm always happy to help make sure they're in good hands! I can be pretty flexible. Anytime after 5 pm on the weekdays and anytime on Saturday and Sundays, I’m available. I work full time and so that does affect when I can walk your pet but I can definitely do drop ins. I usually walk my dog after work or play fetch for a hour or more. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard, with lots of space to sprint around and have fun with me and my fur-baby. The neighborhood is very safe and well-paved for good long walks as well. My dog is great with other dogs and loves to romp around outside with a ball, stick or pretty much anything.
“I can’t begin to express my praise for Tillie. I was so impressed the first time we met when she came to my home to meet my dog, Aspen, and I - she arrived on time, with a notebook and pen to take notes, asked thoughtful questions about Aspen’s care and my expectations, and she was so kind and personable. Aspen loved her right away as well. Tillie kept me frequently updated with pictures of Aspen, checked in with me, asked questions, and when I returned home Aspen was at ease. I really appreciated all of the kindness, care, and patience Tillie gave Aspen (and myself!). We adore Tillie and felt very comfortable inviting her into our home. We are looking forward to booking with Tillie again in the future.”
“Tamra did an outstanding job of house sitting, Fred sitting as well as keeping Fred and his overly concerned and worried parents happy. LOL We received multiple pictures and texts every day showing how Fred was doing and how much fun they were having together. We had the best possible experience having Tamra as our Fred's caregiver. In the future she will be our "go to" at home pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting several times a month for nearly 10 years and have experience caring for pets at every stage of life. From litters of newborn puppies to senior dogs needing medication and diaper changes. I have the flexibility to stay in your home, allowing your pets to stick to their normal routines and feel as comfortable, safe, and secure as possible while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all personalities, from timid pets who need a little extra patience to outgoing, energetic pets who love lots of attention and affection. I work full-time, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I flip between being in-person and hybrid, and my weekends are often available unless marked otherwise. I’m able to plan ahead to make sure your pets receive the care and attention they need while you’re away. We can work together to find a schedule that works best for both you and your pets. I offer in-home pet sitting, where I stay at your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and stick to their normal routines. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other specific needs your pets may have.
About: I currently have 3 (Riesen 18, Buddy 10, and Pepper 7) cats. I have also had a hedgehog, a dog with special dietary needs, fish, and bees. I am here to help keep them stress free and keep their routines as normal as possible. I love animals and ready to cuddle your sweet animal while you are away. I'm available Friday thru Monday and can check on your fur baby at least a couple times a day. I hope to give lots of cuddles and provide you lots of updates I can easily make sure to follow any security measures, check fences, just let me know your routine and I can implement during met and greets just give me a run down.
“Ingrid is amazing! She she took the time to meet our boys so that they would be comfortable around her. She's has great communication and made sure she understandstood the needs of our boys. She went above and beyond to take care of our dogs and our home. She actually left our home in better condition than when she arrived. She really loved our boys and they really enjoyed being with her. We highly recommend Ingrid as a sitter, she really is the best!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life. My sweet Charlie crossed the rainbow bridge in 2025, but when he was here he loved being a pal to all doggos and kiggies. Honoring his memory, I will care for your sweet critter with the same love and attention I have always shown to all creatures. I have one cat, who is aloof, but peaceful. Fenced yard, kiddie pool in the summer, and I am totally okay if your baby needs to dig a hole in the yard. This is a safe space for critters to be their authentic selves. I’m work during the week, so I am only available Friday after 5pm through Sunday at 9pm. I don’t go out on the weekends, so I’m totally dialed in to seeing to your pet’s needs for pottying, walkies, snuggles, and anything else that helps them cope with having their human be absent for brief times. I have a large fenced yard. The grass is soft, but I’m okay with them getting a lil diggy time in if needed. The neighborhood is safe and there is a beautiful park nearby for walkies. I also have a pet stroller if your furry fren needs the accommodation.
About: I was raised on a farm my whole life taking care of animals! I have a huge heart for any animal and always enjoy getting to know their different personalities. I have experience with diabetic and senior dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay at home mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily incorporate their feeding schedules, exercise, and individual needs into my day. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re in my care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines that help their pet feel comfortable. I make sure pets receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I've had a dog pretty much my whole life!! My family bred and raised dachshunds for a huge portion of my life. I was tasked with training them and giving them love.

“I have used Angela twice for 1-2 weeks when I was out of the country. She does a wonderful job with both my dogs, one puppy, and one very old dog. When I used to the second time, they seemed extremely glad to see her She even watered my plants! I highly recommend.”
About: I grew up on a farm in Kansas, have a degree in Biology and have been around animals my entire life. Anyone who knows me, will attest that I pay lots of attention to their pets. I have been asked to watch houses and pets for years by family and friends who don't trust anyone else. I have kept dogs, cats, sheep, cows, ducks, fish, reptiles, spiders, insects, birds and lizards as pets. I normally work a 9-5 schedule Monday through Friday and live alone in Rose Hill, KS. Most evenings I go for a walk when it cools down because I love being outdoors. On my walks, I usually end up petting several neighborhood dogs and cats that eagerly await my attention. In general, I try to observe and match the energy level and interests of a particular pet. My day job involves going into lots of homes with pets. I get plenty of practice meeting new pets and needing to win them over fast.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Greenwich is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 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.

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:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
