“Jenna is the best dog sitter I have ever had. She shows up early, puts your pet first, and my dog who doesn’t like anyone loved Jenna. She is a blessing. Also, my house looked better when I came home than it did when I left. I hope I will be able to use Jenna for all my dog sitting.”
“Poet was great. It was lovely to have peace of mind while they took care of the crew. They sent regular updates and pics. Our scaredy-cat of a dog even finally took to them. Everyone looked safe and happy and we would absolutely book them again.”
“Kate was so great with Bones! She was super sweet, kept me updated while I was gone, and took such good care of him. I felt totally comfortable leaving him with her, and he was so happy when I got back! He definitely loved hanging out with her, and I’ll be using her again!”
“Sophia took wonderful care of our 3 fur-babies. We were kept up to date and provided lots of pictures while we traveled. She followed our care instructions perfectly and went above and beyond our expectations!!”
“Loarann was amazing!! This was my first time using in-home boarding so I was nervous but she was so sweet and so communicative. I never once had to worry or wonder what was going on which is huge for when you go on a trip that’s stressful enough! I honestly think she left the place better than she found it and was so kind about my house being kind of a sight these days because of renovations. She seems to truly love animals and I will 100% use her again in the future, no question.”
“Caitlin was a fantastic dog sitter! My husband and I went out of town for a week, and she home sat for our two dogs. She sent lots of photos throughout the week and let us know how they were doing. Our dogs loved her and she took great care of them and the house while we were away. She even vacuumed up which was so thoughtful. Absolutely recommend her!”
“Julissa was wonderful with my dog. Lots of pics and Tucker was cuddled up to her giving kisses! I will definitely use her again and again, such a sweetheart, very professional!”
“Joy was amazing with Banner! I’m so glad we found her during our stay, she has made our trip worry free. I will definitely keep Joy in mind next time we come to town. If you’re looking for someone reliable and who will treat your pup like her own, Joy is the best sitter for you!!”
“Jennifer is amazing! She accepted a last minute overnight job and came to meet the animals the same day. The first time my boyfriend and I met her, we immediately liked her as did our dog, Bella. I look forward to booking her again!”
“Chelsea was phenomenal watching our two dogs while we went away for a weekend trip! From the moment we left, she went above and beyond—sending regular pictures and videos that gave us complete peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. She made sure our pups had everything they needed, stuck closely to their routines, and clearly treated them like her own. Her communication, attention to detail, and genuine care exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, reliable pet sitter. 11/10!”
About: I have been around dogs since I was in diapers, that's where my love of all things furry started! I can make sure they're fed and watered but the real fun is the playing and going for walks. I can also do training if they're is anything you want to work on with your pup. I have experience with senior dogs as well and I can give medications if needed. If your pup has any special needs please let me know and I will do my best to make sure they are well taken care of while you're away. I am currently job free so there is plenty of time for me to play and care for your pups! I am available for short stays but longer stays I will have to break the visit up so I can care for my babies at home, this break would be a mid day break only up to about 4 hours. I currently can not care for your babies in my own home since I don't have a yard or a safe outdoor area for them to play in as well as having two cats who have never met a dog. I prefer to play on the safe side when it comes to your pups and not take any risks I don't have to. I am available for in (your) home sitting though and will have no problem getting there.
“Tishara was a wonderful and caring pet sitter. She stayed at our home and ensured our pups were loved on while we were gone. She was quick to communicate with us when needed and shared great photos. One of our dogs requires medicine 2x daily so Tishara made sure she understood how to administer it as well as any emergency contacts she might need while we’re gone. It is so reassuring to know someone is looking after your pets with that much care and concern.”
“Rona is incredible! She is truly an animal whisperer and will put your dog or cat needs above everything else, including her own. I trust her completely and look to her for advice to get to know my own dog better!”
About: I know how it feels to leave your furry family member in someone else’s hands, which is why I provide the same love, attention, and care I would want for my own pets. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and safety will always be my priority. 🐶🐾 Since I work from home, I’m able to be with your pet throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I can keep a close eye on them, give them plenty of attention and affection, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. 🐾❤️ Your pet will enjoy a safe, calm, and loving environment. I live in a gated, secure community with its own dog park, perfect for playtime and exercise. I also enjoy walking around the community with my own dog, giving your pup plenty of fresh air, movement, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and provide lots of love, attention, and care throughout the day. 🐾❤️

Kate was so great with Bones! She was super sweet, kept me updated while I was gone, and took such good care of him. I felt totally comfortable leaving him with her, and he was so happy when I got back! He definitely loved hanging out with her, and I’ll be using her again!
Loarann was a fantastic sitter. She housesat for our 2 dogs and 2 cats for a week. On our meet and greet she took detailed notes to learn their routines and needs. They were all well taken care of with all their needs met. We have one energetic dog that loves chasing a tennis ball and Loarann made sure she had plenty of time for that. We came home to very happy well taken care of pets and had a great vacation without any worries.
Sara was great with our cat, Merlin! I certainly recommend her! She sent pictures of Merlin, stayed at the house to keep him company, fed him, played with him and let him in and out. She even notified us of an impending storm and secured items, plants and umbrellas on the deck. It’s obvious she loves pets and is very conscientious.
Felicia was absolutely AMAZING! This was my first time leaving my one dog with a sitter and she was so kind and understanding. She sent pics throughout the day and stayed over a couple of nights to snuggle with my pups a little extra. Her rates are way lower than the work and love she puts in. Thank you, Felicia!
Caitlin was just what we were looking for in a dog sitter! She was communicative, responsible and friendly. She sent great updates with photos every day. Our shiba inu and dachshund seemed to really enjoy her presence and warmed up nicely. We look forward to using Caitlin for more dog sitting needs in the future!
Matt was amazing!! Our baby wouldn’t eat when we left (he gets extremely sad when we leave), and he went out of his way to get our guy to eat! He went to the store and picked up different kinds of food, cooked him chicken and eggs, etc. And it worked! Our dog also requires a lot of medication and eyedrops, and Matt did all of it. Matt truly went above and beyond, and we know Porky was in such great, caring hands. We highly recommend Matt and will absolutely rebook him.
Dianne went above and beyond while pet and house sitting. We went out of town while our house just went on market and she was so flexible and accommodating while realtors and interested people came through. She left the house just as clean as when she arrived and sent us daily pictures of our dogs. Highly recommend her for pet and house sitting!
Claire did an excellent job watching my two dogs and three cats, she handled my senior chihuahua well and was great about keeping me updated on my two shy kitties. I appreciated her coming before the booking to meet the animals and make sure we all felt it was a good fit. Will definitely use her again and would highly recommend!

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 Brent 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 Brent 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Brent 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
