“Mai and Jonathan are wonderful dog sitters - going above and beyond to care for our two dogs. They took excellent care of our home and communicated with pictures and videos throughout their sit. Since they both work from home, they were with the dogs far more often than other sitters, and we are so appreciative of their kindness and enthusiasm with our babies. Highly recommend!”
“Carole was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She stayed with our 1.5-year-old rescue puppy and our 11-year-old cat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was friendly, reliable, and consistently sent plenty of updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Carole spent quality time caring for and playing with our puppy, making sure his energy and needs were met, while also being respectful of both pets’ unique personalities and boundaries—especially important for our older cat. It was clear she truly cares about animals and takes the time to understand them individually. We would highly recommend Carole to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and we”
“This was our first time booking with rover. Rachel’s profile stood out to us since she had pictures of schnauzers on her page and that’s what we have. Rachel came to our house a day early to meet our girls and get acquainted with them. I was so happy to see that our timid rescue girl even put her paws on Rachel’s leg, which was a huge indication that she felt comfortable with Rachel. She took great care of our girls and I had no worries about Rachel being at our house. She confirmed the times and sent us pictures of our very relaxed girls and even had one of them camped out laying beside her. We are definitely going to be using Rachel again!”
“Sam is simply the best. This was our second sit with her and both experiences made our traveling so much more enjoyable knowing the babies are in good, responsible, and capable hands. We received updates throughout the day with pictures without needing to prop her. She is respectful of our home and seems to genuinely care about our animals. I absolutely adore this sitter and will always come to her first with pet sitting needs.”
“Had a few bumps and adjustments, but Jessica was very responsive and took care of my pups and home while I was away. I have two senior dogs and Jessica was great in ensuring they got their medicine in time and had plenty of potty breaks. They enjoyed her stay!”
“This was our second time booking with Kasianay and it won't be our last! Our dog, Mable, loves spending time with her. She is an excellent house sitter and did a fantastic job communicating with us while we were away.”
“Stephanie was great with my two dogs! She communicated clearly and I never once had to worry that they were in goods while I was away. I have a high strung working line GSD who insist on lots of play and Stephanie picked up on all her games to keep her entertained inside while it’s too hot outside. Already have another stay planned!”
“Luna had a great time with Sara! Sara is a good communicator and sent lots of updates so I never had to worry how my girl was doing while out of town. She followed all instructions and we came back to a happy, content pup! I’d definitely use Sara again in the future.”
“Jenna was great even Sage our Jack Russell that gets anxious when we leave on a trip warmed up to her quickly. Nova our other dog loved her from the moment she walked in. She left the apartment clean and very happy dogs. Jenna’s response rate and updates were 100%, I would definitely recommend having Jenna take care of your pets.”
“We are so grateful for Kelly! She stayed with our three dogs from November 7–9 and took such wonderful care of them. It’s not easy managing three personalities, but she gave each of them so much love and attention. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When we got home, the dogs were happy, calm, and clearly had been well cared for — it was such a relief to know they were in such good hands. Kelly went above and beyond, and we can tell she truly loves what she does. We’ll definitely be calling her again the next time we go out of town or just need a drop-in!!”
“This was our first time using Angela and she was amazing. Asher fell in love with her right away. She was so communicative throughout our trip and sent picture updates throughout the day. She even got Asher some cute Halloween treats to enjoy! We will definitely be using Angela when we go out of town!!”
“Mackenzie was great! She was on time, communicated well and was super nice. She took great care of our pup and was respectful of our home. Will definitely book her again next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Carolina stayed with Maggie for a week while we were in Portugal. Besides being very sweet and accommodating, she went above and beyond just watching Maggie. She got the mail, watered the flowers outside, checked the skimmer baskets in the pool for us, dealt with contractors who were working on the pool and yard, dealt with Comcast because the contractors cut the internet line and washed and changed the sheets. The house was left exactly as it was when we left. Best of all Maggie, who doesn't like strangers to touch her, warmed up to Carolina like we have never seen before. We received pictures and videos of Maggie playing with her toys with Carolina and letting her give her belly rubs like she does only with family! Carolina was our second sitter because we were gone for 2 weeks and couldn't find anyone available for the whole time, so she met with the first sitter who went over everything with her before she left. We would definitely book Carolina again and now we feel more comfortable leaving Maggie, when before it was very much a challenge and other options hadn't gone well (drop ins, staying at other people's houses). Most of all Maggie would love to see her again! She's a dog whisperer!”
“James did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. He sent me pics and videos every day so I could see how my boys were doing. The house was spotless and so was the litter box. Highly recommend! And I would definitely re-hire.”
“Destiny cat sat our cat while we were out of town for 10 days. She came over daily to feed our cat, play with her, and keep her company. She left our home spotless and even washed the cat bowl and swept up the cat litter that our cat kicks out of her litter box before our return. She also send us videos and pictures regularly so our minds were put to ease that our cat was taken care of back home. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone reliable and responsible to come over to petsit their fur baby.”
“Dan was fantastic with our two pups! They were very happy and well taken care of when we got home and the house was spotless. Dan sent pictures and updates which was very appreciated. We will absolutely use Dan again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,803 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Braswell. 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 Braswell 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 Braswell 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 Braswell 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.
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.
