“Always Always Always the BEST!!!! I’ll be so sad if we ever lose her as a resource here in town. Shes amazing! Consistent communication, very clean, compassionate and understanding with our allergy hot mess of a dog 😮💨😬. We just adore Kelsie!”
“Wonderful experience for both our pups and us! Thalia was super responsive, cheery, and the pups really responded well to her even while we were away. Would happily have her house/pet sit for us again.”
“Matthew was great again! Havana and Lexi love their sitter! Thank you Matthew for your pictures while we were gone and keeping us updated on the dogs each day. We are very grateful.”
“Monica was absolutely perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better person to look after Sidney while I was in a last-minute business meeting that took the entire day. She walked him and ensured he was well cared for during the day.”
“Ashley did a great job taking care of our two big dogs and house sitting. So happy to have found her to take care of our boys! We will definitely use her again and recommend her.”
“Leandra took such good care of our two cats! I was so happy to see pictures and videos of our cats getting all the cuddles they wanted over the three weeks she was with them. We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing the cats were getting excellent and thoughtful care. ❤️”
“I am new to the area and was super nervous about finding a new dog sitter. My pups instantly LOVED Z’ie. She was so kind and friendly and always sent me updates with pictures and videos. I was so at ease while I was gone and was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. I highly recommend her!”
“Love love love! Jasmine was an angel! She came to sit for us while we were already out of town. We unfortunately did not get to meet her, but our dogs loved her right away. She was sweet to them, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond the call to make sure our poochies were taken care of. Do not hesitate to hire her.”
“This was the first time I used a dog/house sitter so I was a bit nervous about the whole thing. But Emoni was great! My pup liked her right away and I was totally comfortable leaving her my house key. She was super communicative and helpful during her stay, even when my dog decided to push down her gate. 🤦🏼♀️😂 I will definitely be a repeat client!”
“Heather was wonderful! This was my first time using rover as I was in a bind on the holiday weekend with no one to watch my 4 fur babies.. From the first few messages with her to meeting her she made me feel very comfortable and gives off the good people vibes.... She was very communicative and sent pictures/videos... came home to house and dogs just as I left it. Would definitely book Heather again, so grateful for the peace of mind knowing my wolf pack had good company ❤️🤗”
“Victoria exceeded all expectations! I have 2 cats (15 & 6) that both required different levels of care and Victoria was able to handle both of them. She was very thorough in her prep and we had a video consult to go over all expectations, requests, questions, etc. She was detailed and asked questions I hadn’t even thought to cover. During the pet sitting, she kept me updated at all time and provided pictures to let me know the girls were doing okay. My 15 year old cat requires multiple medications that can sometimes be difficult to administer and she was able to administer with no issues. Nothing about this was a negative experience and I would recommend her to anyone!! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
About: I've grown up around dogs and currently have three of my own, so caring for them has been part of my daily life for years. I've also dog sat for family and friends, handling feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. I'll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit. I'm currently a university student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate each pet's routine, whether that means morning walks, afternoon visits, or evening check-ins. I'm happy to communicate with owners to find a schedule that works best for both them and their pets. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions provided by owners and make sure pets stay on their normal routine. I'll always keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo and text updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Pamela has come over to watch my shitzu and labradoodle twice now, for 3 days each visit. She is amazing with them, they are happy to see her and get lots of cuddles. She goes above and beyond by helping pick up their poop in the backyard, helping doing light cleaning in the kitchen, and washes and tries the sheets from the room she sleeps in. Pamela is also amazing at keeping me updated multiple times a day. Highly recommend that you use Pamela’s service!”
About: Going on vacation, need a getaway, or just take a break? Trustworthy and reliable house and pet sitter can help. Need a companion to supervise your kids, pets, and elderly family? Caring for your loved ones at home, while they do their normal routine and activities, to be cozy and comfortable. I love being around people, kids, and pets doing activities, conversing, or just quietly keeping them company, if preferred. My experience includes property management, substituting in public schools, volunteer at animal shelters and rescues, helped with community cats, and also watch my own critters along with friends and family. I do have a part-time property management career during the day but can schedule you early mornings and late afternoon evenings, as well as weekends, and holidays. Visits and tasks are personalized with your instructions, to meet your needs. Let me know if I can assist you with anything and get some spare time on your hands to do more!
About: I’ve been around dogs for my entire life and have developed a strong understanding of their behavior, energy levels, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and consistency to senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra patience, or medication. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with owners, so you always feel confident your dog is in good hands. I’m very mindful of maintaining each pet’s normal schedule and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for, even on the days I’m working. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I’ll also keep the home tidy and can provide photos. No matter the service, I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet feels happy and stress-free.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bracken
Nancy was so great in looking after our fur babies! She had great communication, sent regular updates, and the house was left in perfect condition. Even our timid cat brought Nancy her favorite toy to play fetch. Would absolutely recommend Nancy for pet/house care!
Makala was amazing with Terre! She was reliable, communicative, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. What stood out most was how much Terre loved her. I got to spend some time with her myself, and Terre kept going over to cuddle with her, which says a lot because he’s usually pretty attached to me. It was obvious that he felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Brittany was absolutely amazing to my dogs while I was away. She provided detailed updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay at my home with my dogs. She even left a daily activity log outlining my pup’s potty breaks and eating schedule. She provided them with lots of love can care! I will be booking with her in the future.
Pamela was an absolute lifesaver while I was away! She took care of my dog, Zildjian, and my cat, Olive, for five days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she completely relieved my stress by being reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She came by three times a day like clockwork, making sure both of my pets were happy, fed, and well-loved. What really stood out was how thoughtful she was with updates—she sent regular photos and messages that gave me total peace of mind. Even during a horrible thunderstorm, she went above and beyond to check on them and make sure they felt safe and comforted Because of Pamela, I was actually able to relax and enjoy my vacation, knowing everything at home was in the best hands possible. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and incredibly dedicated, Pamela is the one. I would absolutely book her again without hesitation!
Ka'rynne was wonderful, checking in regularly and sending pictures and video. My dogs were very relaxed and displayed regular behavior, playing, etc... She was very respectful of my house and left it in the same condition I left it. I will use Ka'rynne in the future without hesitation.
Tiffany did such an amazing job with our Lelo! She also went above and beyond the care with helping with the watering of the plants and other helpful things around the house while we were on vacation. I would definitely recommend her and will contact her again for care for Lelo! 💕

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bracken on Rover is $40.66 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 1,902 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bracken. 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 Bracken 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 Bracken 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 Bracken 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 Bracken. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
