“Lindsey was absolutely amazing! Samson took to her immediately, which says a lot because he doesn't instantly warm up to everyone. She was so kind, patient, and loving with him, and it was obvious from the start that she's a true dog person. Knowing he was in such caring hands gave me complete peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Lindsey to watch Samson again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog sitter!”
“This was my first time booking with Melinda and she exceeded all our needs, especially when my dog had a bad day health wise. I took the longest vacation in my adult life and overseas as well, she gave me peace of mind I needed to enjoy my trip. 1000% would rebook and recommend her wholeheartedly.”
About: I've have helped out with my family, friends, and Neighbors cats and dogs for about five years. I have experience with walking, feeding, and care taking for large dog breeds, spunky cats, and extremely anxious pets. Thus, I can support animals with all different types of needs! I am currently teleworking full time during the day (typically 8-4), but am available for lunch time playtime and walks. I am available to help on most weekends when out of town or in the evenings when life gets busy. Since I telework, my schedule is fairly flexible! Since I have experience with different types of pets, I am well suited to support your animal in the right way. I have two German Shepard dogs which require skill and responsibility to handle, along with an anxious pup who has particular needs. If instructions are left, I know how important it is to follow them to protect the animals and myself.
“Olga was very caring with our senior dog, and very responsive. She sent updates and pictures everyday so we always know how our little babies were doing! Our dog is currently in the middle of cancer treatment so her care and comfort was paramount to us and to her. We are so grateful for that. Only complaint is that our cat’s litter box was not cleaned regularly, and he began peeing on other things in response. We did not remind her to do this so we will take partial responsibility but the smell was very strong and it was clear it hadn’t been cleaned. Otherwise, we would absolutely have Olga back due to the peace of mind we had while she was watching our fur babies!”
“Jake was great! Inde seemed to really enjoy her time with him. We received updates while we were away, as well as pictures. Our apartment was also left completely clean. Will absolutely be booking him again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Brooke was amazing! She stayed at our house for 9 days watching our dog, our chickens, and a newly acquired gecko. She is an excellent communicator, keeping us informed every day with pictures and quick updates. She was an amazing houseguest, and left the house cleaner than when she got here. Our pets loved having her here and so did we. We will definitely book Brooke again.”
“Ten stars. Esther is a phenomenal canine friend and our old man absolutely loves having her over for extended house sits. She takes very good care of him and sends daily, lengthy updates on everything they did that day along with adorable videos and photos”
About: I grew up in a household with 7 dogs and I've been watching my neighbors and my family's pets for years. I also worked at a dog boarding facility for several years. I currently have two very high energy corgis but currently have a lot of time and love for more animals! I currently work remote so am very flexible with my hours to match your pets needs, weekdays and week ends. I am also able to accommodate last minute (even day/hour of) requests no problem if I have availability As I work from home I'm able to give the pets a little extra care no matter the time of day and without having to rush off for my own job or family (my wife is perfectly able to handle my 2 doggies on her own!). Able to send as many updates and pics as needed to ease separation and can handle any special requests.
“Rosemary was a legit godsend. She was amazing and I'm so happy I found her. My situation was very unique and she took it in stride. But the main thing was she helped my dogs feel comfortable and loved in a brand new house. She sent so many photos which helped ease my mind. Then she left my house super clean. I couldn't even tell she had been there. I will hire her again and recommend her to all my fellow dog people.”
“Darlin was an absolute angel! She stayed at our house with our Rucker boy for 5 nights. Darlin sent us daily updates, took Rucker for daily walks and administered meds. Rucker was extremely comfortable and loved every minute of it! We received the best pictures and were able to fully enjoy our vacation and time away knowing Darlin was staying at our house. We came back to a clean house (pretty sure cleaner than we left it!!) and has become our #1 go to when needed our fur baby cared for - she was the perfect house guest! We can’t thank her enough and already looking to book her for our next trip!!! Thank you so much!!!”
“Arabella was great with our girls and made sure they were loved while we were away. She sent tons of pictures and made us comfortable being away from them and will absolutely hire her again!”
About: Growing up, my family has owned many dogs and other pets, and I have always been heavily involved in their care. I had a dog walking business a few years ago, and I regularly watched the dogs of our friends and neighbors. My family also fostered a dog for a time, which I was heavily involved in. Over the last year, I have had the opportunity to walk and care for many different dogs through Rover. Throughout all of these experiences, I have had to care for many different types of dogs, both big and small, and old and young. As a result, I am comfortable with all types of breeds and know how to navigate challenges when it comes to pet care. Most importantly, I love dogs! I am available every day of the week from 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM. I am very flexible and can always find time to accommodate other schedules. Please check my calendar for any days marked unavailable. When caring for dogs in the homes of others, I make sure that they are comfortable, well fed, and loved. When walking dogs, I always make sure to go at their pace, pick up after them, and keep them safe.
“Raquel took great care of my dog and left my home in pristine condition while house sitting. She was highly communicative throughout the stay and made sure that my dog went out for plenty of walks and had lots of indoor play time. My dog does not do well with other dogs and Raquel did a great job in avoiding any issues while on walks. I would highly recommend Raquel’s services!”
“Lashawn was so great! I have two American Bullies and one American Staffordshire Terrier, which combined can be a lot of energy! Lashawn stepped right in and took over like he had known them their entire life. He understands dog behavior and a pack mentality, and managed all three of mine beautifully, one of which is very jealous of the other two and demands a lot of one-on-one attention when the others are being petted. Lashawn did an amazing job and I have already booked him to come back!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brambleton
Desi was awesome with our shih tzu Tinker! In her first overnight stay with him, she immediately learned to read his behaviors, and quickly earned his trust and right to cuddle. She was incredibly attentive and thorough, sending periodic updates that gave us confidence all was on track. She even got Tinker to walk without forcing him - a feat few sitters have been able to master! She's got the golden touch! She ensured his meds were administered on time and she was diligent in adhering to his overall schedule. Tinker was very calm upon our return - a huge accomplishment since he tends to get very anxious during our trips. We highly recommend Desi!
Sydney was great. She took care of our two pups for eight days. One of which is sweet but reactive to dogs she does not know. We asked her to stay an extra day so we could spend one more night at the beach and she reorganized her schedule....she if very nice to work with.
Alianna did a fantastic job house sitting for our golden retriever. She took extra care of him while he was recovering from injury, providing frequent ongoing updates to us on her visits as well as pics of our fur baby. Thanks for being so thoughtful and responsive!
Jake was great! Inde seemed to really enjoy her time with him. We received updates while we were away, as well as pictures. Our apartment was also left completely clean. Will absolutely be booking him again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.
This was our first time not using a family member to watch our dog and Kayla was truly amazing! She came to our home to meet our dog before spending the week with him to make sure he was comfortable with her. Not only did she keep our mind at ease with updates and pictures throughout the week, but she spend quality time with our dog and gave exceptional love and care like he was one of her own. We are so appreciative of her and her wonderful care and would 100% recommend her to anyone.
Ellie was a wonderful sitter. We were a little worried at first, as Ellie is younger than the usual sitters we have, but she surpassed our expectations! Both our cat and dog were very relaxed; Ellie ensured that both our pets were comfortable. It's tough enough to manage one pet, so the fact that Ellie was able to manage both our pets together proves her competence. We will definitely be hiring Ellie again in the very near future 🐶😺
Polly is wonderful with Lenny. She understands his wishes to run away and keeps him close and tight so he is safe. They had happy walks together Lenny enjoyed Polly’s son who even had Lenny singing/howling with him. I love having Lenny stay with Polly. I know he will be safe and happy
Beth is a wonderful pet sitter. She stays at our condo with our 2 dogs. We have used her multiple times and for some longer (2 weeks) trips. The dogs are always happy to see her and I know they get lots of attention and love. Beth goes beyond expectations with communication- she replies quickly and always puts our mind at ease. We highly recommend Beth.
We have used Phillip multiple times now and every time he is very communicative and accepting of our requests which is helpful when dealing with separation anxiety. This time we had an extra dog and extra complications and he still handled everything and house was in great condition when we came back (despite my dogs themselves making messes that he cleaned) Would use again

FAQs for House Sitting - Brambleton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brambleton on Rover is $66.6 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 9,643 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brambleton. 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 Brambleton 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 Brambleton 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 Brambleton 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.
