“Alessandria did a great job keeping my dogs safe and happy. I appreciate that she was able to be flexible on times as I wasn't sure with the weather if we were going to make it back on time. The house was left neat and tidy, and she helped prepare for a bad winter storm coming.”
“Avery was a phenomenal house and pet sitter for us! She took care of our dog, and three cats for the weekend, and I'd never had such peace of mind when leaving our fur babies. She gave an update per day, but was willing to give more if asked, and our house was clean and exactly the way we'd left it when we returned. We're definitely booking with Avery again!”
“Joy was fantastic! She did a wonderful job sending lots of pictures and keeping me updated. There was a winter storm while we were gone and she thought ahead to make sure we had flashlights set out as well as knew how to manually access the girls’ automatic feeders in case power was lost. It’s the first time I’ve bee able to travel without stressing about my kitties. The girls definitely have a new best friend….they may even like her more than me now lol.”
“Salem did a great job house sitting for our 2 pups! We had a medical issue with one of our dogs and she did an excellent job communicating. Will definitely ask to come back!”
“Winter was amazing and cared for all 3 of our pups. We received pictures while she was caring for them and had great communication with us. Thank you so much again for caring for our pups! I definitely recommend Winter and will likely book her again in future if she’s available.”
“Alexandra was great and sent me updates on my old man while I was away. She took the time to take him on walks and made him feel safe. Hes very anxious but he seemed to be comfortable with her. Would definitely recommend”
“Nick was an incredible sitter! I was nervous, as this was my first time leaving my dog with someone who wasn't a friend or family, and Nick did a wonderful job keeping in communication with me about how things were going. He also went above and beyond to keep my dog on her regular schedule, which made the transition seamless.”
“Sia is fantastic! She is a repeat sitter for my pup and I will call her again! She stayed with Z when I had a family commitment and Z got a GI bug and needed to go to the emergency vet. Unfortunately for Sia, Z was up all night, but Sia got her to the vet, stayed in close touch with me about the tests, medication and follow up, and my dog was in excellent hands. THANK YOU, SIA!”
About: I have 5 cats of my own as well as a small dog, and I cherish all animals. I have been petsitting for family and friends since I was about 10, and am flexibly available to take care of your babies when you need. I'm a high-school senior about to graduate, so during the summer I will have plenty of free time to devote to taking care of your animals! I will do anything requested of me regarding caring for your pets in your home, including keeping them company, going on walks, and giving them plenty of love.
“Meredith took amazing care of our home, cat, and chickens and ducks! She was proactive and resolved issues that came up when baby chicks were escaping from their coop. She sent us photos everyday and gave a detailed daily update so we knew how everything was going. We came home to a spotless house and very happy animals!”
“Jake was terrific - so thoughtful, responsible and very kind. Our dog can be a bit anxious (not aggressive, but not welcoming either) and Jake took the necessary steps and time to develop a great relationship with her and made sure she was well taken care of. The photos and videos he sent us throughout were evidence of how happy she was with him. We would enthusiastically have Jake stay with her again. Thanks again, Jake! We are very grateful.”
“Hayley was communicative, attentive, and friendly! I already have her lined up for another trip we are taking, and I know she will take great care of Hermione, because she did a great job! My husband said Hermione might like her more than us!”
“Brooke took excellent care of our two dogs and our home! She was very responsive and shared plenty of videos/pictures to keep us updated throughout our trip. I will definitely schedule with Brooke again :)”
“Brooke is great with both my senior dog and my puppy. What started as a 3 night house sitting while on a business trip, turned into 10 days due to passing of my father. Brooke calmly said she had it covered for me on the home front and not to worry. This allowed me to fully focus on my family during a horrible and stressful time. Brooke is a great responsible and kind person! I will for sure use her for my fur babies in the future.”
“Megan was great, she took good care of our crew including medication, having to put a cone on our dog, and a variety of feeding schedules/types of food for all the animals. Megan is very communicative and sends lots of photos!”
About: My kind and caring nature is apart of every interaction with your pets and you! I am a clean person and ensure your pet and home will be in top shape. Whether your pet is a high energy dog or a shy cat, I’ll treat them like my own fur babies for the entire time you are away, making sure they get the love and care every animal deserves. I’m currently working full time with an in person job, however my schedule is often fairly flexible and I am typically able to leave the job-site if needed for any reason. When I had my own pets, pet care was apart of my daily routine because they deserve care throughout each day. That is something I apply to every pet I care for. When caring for your pet(s), I also ensure your home and space are respected and maintained. House sitting means taking care of the space just as much as it does caring for the pets-both which I take seriously. Cleanliness and respect for your home will always be apart of my services.
“Alexander was a terrific dogsitter for our high-energy 3-1/2 year old Black Lab. We appreciated his immediate response to our Rover request when we were called out of town on short notice. He set our minds at ease as we could see how quickly Zoey took to him. Alexander posted photos and videos for us while we were away, which was such a comfort. We will definitely plan to ask for him again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Braggtown
Mardi was great with Jenny. She took her time and let Jenny warm up to her so she'd feel safe. She sent photos of Jenny and updates during our overnight away. Mardi was also very flexible when we decided to come home a day early. Good grief, our house looked pristine!
Brandon was wonderful house sitting with Maddie. He was friendly and sweet with Maddie. He followed my instructions for Maddie very well and sent plenty of updates with pictures. He was respectful of my home and belongings and responsive to texts. Maddie seemed to be well cared for after spending time with Maddie in my home. I would definitely invite Brandon to house sit or care for Maddie in the future!
Sol is a very patient and professional dog sitter who is very mindful of keeping the place clean. Sol is also good fit for sitting large breed dogs. Sol took good care of My 85lb active working line GSD for 4 days and made sure to ask all questions to ensure proper care.
Chelsea really went above and beyond to take care of our animals and house. She was very communicative, sent pictures and daily summaries about Lexie’s day, and even drove to pick up some anxiety meds for Lexie when she was having trouble calming down. I can’t say enough nice things about her services, so I’ll just say that my animals were very well taken care of and Chelsea’s services were worth every penny. I’d hire her again without a second thought.

Sarah was an amazing pet sitter for my pups! She took care of them while I was out of town for over a week. She sent me photos and updates on them everyday, which I really appreciated, and went above and beyond taking care of the house as well! Sarah was also very attentive to my older dog who sometimes has stomach issues. I’ll definitely be rebooking soon, and recommend her to anyone!
Avery was a phenomenal house and pet sitter for us! She took care of our dog, and three cats for the weekend, and I'd never had such peace of mind when leaving our fur babies. She gave an update per day, but was willing to give more if asked, and our house was clean and exactly the way we'd left it when we returned. We're definitely booking with Avery again!
Sara did such a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. Regular check-ins with photos showing them on walks, playing, cuddling, and napping. Communication was great. It's clear how much she loves and understands dogs, and having Sara there was a great comfort for us while we were away. I hope Sara's available next time we're out of town!
Jake was an exceptional house and pet sitter. From the start, he asked thoughtful questions that made it clear he wanted to understand our pets' routines and needs. Throughout our trip, he was communicative, reliable, and proactive, sending frequent updates and plenty of photos that gave us real peace of mind. While we were away, we even had a dead fire alarm battery issue, and Jake handled it with ease, keeping us informed and taking care of the situation without any stress on our end. We came home to happy pets, a well-cared-for house, and the confidence that everything had been in great hands. Jake was a wonderful guest, and we would gladly welcome him back anytime. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Braggtown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Braggtown on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,859 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Braggtown. 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 Braggtown 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 Braggtown 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 Braggtown 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.

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.
