“This was our first time using Rover for house sitting and it was worth it! Taryn is so sweet, she kept us updated on our pets and sent us plenty of pictures. We had a meet and greet prior to booking but of course my pets loved her! I knew my babies were in the best hands and look forward to booking with Taryn again! ?”
“April watched our gaggle of pups when we had to unexpectedly go out of town. She did an amazing job with them, was responsive, and I felt at ease knowing she had a handle on our crew. We have a puppy and an older guy needing medical care and she handled both so well. I would definitely recommend April!”
“We would 1000% recommend Katie. Katie was kind patient with one of our dogs that takes a little while to warm up to new people, even making a couple trips out to take her on walks before we left. During our time away, a new medical issue came up for our elderly dog. Katie was amazing at communicating with us, taking her to the vet for us, helping 3 way call with the vet while she was there and keeping a watchful eye on her until we could return home. We found our house exactly how we left it, everything tidy and clean. We hands-down will be using Katie again knowing that our dogs will be well loved and taken care of while we’re away”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have raised several from young puppies into adulthood. I currently care for my three dogs—Nala, Sage, and Willow—and have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, basic puppy care, and giving each dog the patience and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I receive my work schedule monthly, so I keep my availability up to date and am happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and provide a loving, dependable environment while you’re away.
“David did a wonderful job taking care of our cat and dog. He sent pictures daily, and was attentive to our cat who his shy around new people. Would definietly recommend, and we have already rebooked !”
“Miranda stayed at our home for almost a week and cared for our dogs while we were away. She kept the house tidy, collected our mail, which was appreciated, and replied promptly to our messages, providing text updates throughout the stay. The dogs were comfortable and looked after, and communication was smooth. Overall, she did a solid job and we were happy to have her stay.”
“Aurora was truly heaven sent. I needed to find someone last minute to care for my dad’s dog, Spunky, for three weeks while he was receiving medical treatment, and I truly cannot express how grateful we are that we found her. I live on the East Coast, so I wasn’t able to be there myself during this time. Naturally, that came with a lot of stress and worry—but Aurora immediately gave us complete peace of mind. Honestly, I don’t think I could have taken better care of Spunky myself than Aurora did. She went above and beyond in every possible way. She made sure Spunky was not only cared for, but genuinely happy—taking her on plenty of walks, out for pup cups, and around town so she could stay active and engaged. It was clear Spunky wasn’t just being “watched,” she was being truly loved. Aurora was also incredibly communicative and thoughtful. She sent us constant updates and so many photos, which meant everything to us while my dad was away and dealing with a difficult situation. It made such a difference knowing Spunky was safe, happy, and in such good hands. What really stood out was the extra level of care Aurora put into everything. She left a thoughtful care package for my dad and Spunky, and even took the time to clean the house—it was honestly cleaner than it’s ever been. Those little (but actually very big) things meant more than we can say. Aurora consistently went above and beyond for the entire three weeks. She is kind, reliable, and truly exceptional at what she does. She was an absolute blessing. I would trust her with Spunky again in a heartbeat and recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a kid. Growing up I had an adorable pit bull that I would feed, walk, and bathe regularly. My family and friends also had cats that I would occasionally watch and feed as well. Recently I have excelled with sticking to strict dietary restrictions for a senior dog I sat to also helping leash train and walk my siblings 6 month old dog. I'm a full time college student and have a part time job. Luckily between my class schedule and work schedule I have more than enough flexibility to provide the service you and your pet need. I have personal dog walking experience and can provide a comfortable walking environment for your pet. I also have experience with rowdy dogs and can safely handle playtime.
“Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.”
“Hi Rob, is a good person and a lifesaver. He came over and Housesat for me in an emergency with only 3hrs notice when I had a last minute cancellation. I would recommend him again to watch my pets anytime”
About: I have the most experience caring for kittens and cats of all ages and temperaments. I currently have three cats, each with their own unique age and personality, so I’m comfortable understanding and adapting to different needs. I’ve also owned a dog in the past and have experience providing short-term boarding for both dogs and cats. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re with me. I am currently at home full time, so I have plenty of free time to care for your fur babies. My weekend availability may vary from time to time based on personal travels but am available most weekends! I have 3 female cats in my home currently, all are spayed and up to date on shots. They all are cat & dog friendly - some more curious than others as to be expected but I can always separate my cats from the main living area if needed. I have a yard and plenty of walking paths but not fenced in so a leash will be needed.
“This is long overdue. Hannah was very reliable and took great care of our two energetic pups while we were away. They absolutely loved her. She constantly updated us which puts our mind at ease while we were away on vacation. She is highly recommended.”
“Alexis took wonderful care of our dog and home while house sitting. Great communication before and during our time away. I’d recommend Alexis to anyone and will look to rebook in the future.”
“Katalina gave us great peace of mind watching our dog Avery. She gave regular updates and pictures of our pup, and she was clear and friendly in her communication. Such a professional who wants to make sure your fur baby is taken care ofb”
About: I grew up in a multi pet home and learned to walk, train and groom pets from a young age. I cared for the last family dog through her medically tedious senior years. Through college I pet sat and walked for friends and family. For 2 years I worked for a veterinary clinic, although my job was marketing I often was asked to assist with holding and monitoring patients. When I became a pet owner I adopted puppies raising them through potty and crate training. I am proud to say they continue to be healthy and happy. Now we foster and pet sit dogs of all ages and sizes because of the dog friendly environment we’ve created at home. My success in pet lies with gaining the pets trust. I approach them slowly and go at their pace, sitting and waiting on the ground if necessary. I am pet sitting and walking full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to my clients! Dogs are typically walked and out between 7am and 9pm. I have a fully fenced yard with ample room for running and playing. There are four resident dogs who are friendly and used to guests. We can crate your pup or have them sleep in a bed or in bed with me. Water is available at all times through a 2 gallon water dispenser.
About: I am a student, and I am also just trying to figure out a way to pay for college. I am currently studying culinary arts, and would love to make cute little dog treats for all the dogs I walk. I love animals. I care for all animals. I am allergic to cats. I have always felt comfortable around animals,understand the respect, and love they need. I can care for dogs because I have dogs all my life. I have always had fish as well so if you need help feeding your fish I can help with that as well. No matter what breed of dog or fish I will take care of it. I understand dogs with specific diets and or immune system issues because of my own dogs. I look forward to helping with dogs or fish care for any one. I am open to work with any schedule. pet's are an important part to everyone's lives and families. So i veiw taking care of pets as taking care of childern. with love care and respect. Dogs are important in every part of my life and daily routine. I have cared for all ages from puppies to senior dogs.
“Gia was an excellent house sitter and pet sitter. I have two older cats, and was a little nervous about leaving them for two weeks. But when I returned, my house was clean, my cats were happy and well fed, and my mail was stacked on the kitchen table. Gia contacted me several times during my vacation, and sent photographs and video of the cats at home. I highly recommend her!”
“Nichole was great. My sitter backed out last minute and she stepped in with very little notice. She was thorough during our meet and greet which immediately put me at ease. While I was gone one of my dogs ended up getting sick. She took amazing care of him (even frequent potty runs during the night) and kept me up to date while I was half way across the country. Even after she was officially done watching Ollie and Ziggy she checked in to make sure Ollie was on the mend. I’d absolutely recommend her!”
“Natalie is amazing. She spent time getting to know our two dogs before house sitting and is a delight to chat with. She is dependable, responsible, respectful, and took the best care of the dogs (and the plants!). Very blessed to have found her and will absolutely rebook with her in the future.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Griffith is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Griffith
We would highly recommend Katie as a dog sitter! Our two dogs, Toby and Boo, tend to be very nervous with strangers, but they instantly felt comfortable with Katie. She has a welcoming presence that animals find calming, comforting, and safe. We will definitely use Katie in the future to sit with our dogs.
This was the best experience I’ve ever had. Aurora went above and beyond while watching my dog. She’s amazing at communicating and ensuring the safety and joy of our doggie. Aurora has a beautiful heart and she loves working with animals of any type. While me and my boyfriend were out of town Aurora watched our dog and took her on so many adventures, made sure to photograph all the fun they have, and ensure my doggie was safe. She’s great at following a schedule that works for you. At the end of our trip we came home to a new toy bought for our dog and a thank you card on our table. We couldn’t be more appreciative of what Aurora has done for our dog. We will be doing this again and I recommend you do too :)
Christian was able to take care of my pup last minute when I was desperate for puppy coverage. Thank you for helping me and my Jugni! Christian was a short and efficient communicator and sent updates as needed. Jugni is always excited to see her as well, so I know she’s being taken care of.
Alix was absolutely amazing! While I was away for 3 weeks- she spent time with my two cats even during the holiday season! She took such good care of them and sent pictures to show how happy they were to hang out with her! I would 100% rebook and recommend to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Griffith on Rover is $31.08 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 4,669 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Griffith. 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 Griffith 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 Griffith 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 Griffith 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 with handling special pet needs in Griffith. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
