“Suzanna was very responsive and proactive during our time away. She sent daily texts (usually more than one) with photos showing what she and our pups were up to. Her comments showed that she really has a great ability to understand dogs and their different personalities. She asked great questions, and left our home in excellent condition. When we got back, the dogs were very calm and content, which tells me that she really gave them all the love and attention that they are used to. We will definitely be asking for her help again! Thank you, Suzanna!!!”
“Abigail did a fantastic job!! She was on time, reliable, left our home in great condition, exceeded our expectations, and our fur-babies absolutely loved her! I came home briefly to grab an item, and found them all curled up on the sofa together. It was such a relief to know that my home and my animals were in good hands. We will definitely be using her again, and totally recommend her to anyone seeking quality pet care. Thank you, Abigail!”
“Alyssa was great! She was super flexible with our schedule, she showed up in a timely manner, and she really cared for Lucy. She played with her, gave her treats, let her outside and have her lots of company! She was great and we are definitely rebooking!”
“Kiera was so great with our pups. She kept us informed and bonded well with our elder dogs. She was very clean and went above and beyond to leave things clean when she left.”
“Tori took great care of our home and dogs. We were able to go away camping for a weekend while our house and dogs were in her safe hands. They played outside and got a ton of energy out. We will be having her watch them again in the future.”
About: I have experience as a groomer, walker for large working breeds as well as administering medications and post surgery care. I am no stranger to bites and scratches. Pet care is my full time job alongside working as a dmv actor. My schedule is typically extremely flexible and I can work around your needs. I take pride in providing loving, reliable care for pets in the comfort of their own homes, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and walks to administering medications, playtime, and cuddle sessions. I also treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean and secure while providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. Whether I’m caring for an energetic puppy, a senior dog, or an independent cat, my goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re in good hands.
“Finding someone who wants to pet sit two Great Danes is no easy task, but Elizabeth is an absolute natural! From the moment she came over for the initial meet-and-greet, she was so wonderful with them that they were genuinely upset when she left. She did an incredible job house-sitting and taking care of my giant pups in their own environment. She even went above and beyond by tolerating both of them crowding her on the bed—anyone with Danes knows they are world-class bed hogs! I could tell they were safe, loved, and thoroughly spoiled the entire time. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a top-tier pet sitter. In fact, I’m pretty sure my dogs are secretly hoping I travel again just so they can spend more time with her! 😊”
“Hailey truly went above and beyond watching my pup while we were away at the beach! Initial introduction was warm and could trust she'd be attentive and affectionate towards him. Updated me with photos and comments during our trip, and when I came back the place was as tidy as when we left it! She even made a handwritten note and Polaroid photo of my doggo which I will cherish. Very kind lady who will treat your pet great, highly recommend”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs to include puppies for over 10 years. I’ve been around dogs most of my life. I consider dogs a part of our families and I care about the dogs I sit and treat them as my own. I am available to board during the week and weekends. I work from home most days and I am available to be here more often. I can easily crate your pup if needed. I have a little Maltese of my own. He loves to play but can also keep separate from your pup.
“Melissa was great and Rocky loved her! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous but Melissa eased my mind. Not being used to “strangers” staying with him, Rocky had some separation anxiety. Melissa was very straightforward about it and kept me updated the whole time. I made some suggestions and she tried them all. I would love to have Melissa stay with Rocky again if she’s interested.”
About: I’ve had a dog my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. I’m comfortable with dogs that have different personalities, sizes, and energy levels! I treat every dog like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and happy when they’re with me I currently have a flexible schedule while I’m between jobs and looking for my next opportunity. This gives me plenty of availability to care for your pets and work around their routines Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe and secure.
“Lindsey is amazing!! She is so nice and took great care of our dog. She sent so many photo and video updates and our dog looked happy! She sent updates about bathroom breaks and food too. I also appreciate that she has experience with epileptic dogs so we felt comfortable leaving ours in her care. We already have her booked for another round of overnight sittings!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Greenwich on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 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.
