“Noah is the best!! We had a friend cancel on us and he came through last minute to house and pet sit. It was our first time booking on Rover and we were a tad nervous to leave our pets and house with someone we didn't know, but were so at ease once we met him. Our pets loved him and he left our house in perfect shape. 10/10 recommend booking him!”
“If you're trying Rover for the first time like we were, I can't recommend Jenna enough. We chose her because she had more reviews than almost anyone else we looked at, and she still maintained a perfect five star rating. Now we understand why. We were gone on a deep sea fishing trip, and Jenna came by twice to take care of our dog, Ruger. She didn't just let her out for a potty break. She spent time playing with her, throwing the ball, and making sure she got plenty of exercise. Ruger was happy, tired, and clearly well cared for when we got home. Jenna was reliable, caring, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”
“Julissa was fantastic. She sent many updates and pictures of my dogs. She not only cared for them and made them comfortable, she made sure my mind was at ease. Very experienced and kind sitter”
“Madison watched our dog for almost 2.5 weeks while we were on a holiday trip to see family. We did a meet and greet before the trip to make sure she got to know our dog (as he is reactive) and I loved that she asked questions so that she knew what our wants/needs are for the stay. She is so sweet and did so great during the whole stay. She also has really great communication and I highly recommend her!”
“Joni did an amazing job taking care of Winston, Matilda and our two cats while watching our home! We came back to happy, well-loved babies and everything in perfect shape. She’s reliable, caring, and we’d absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“Rona is warm, incredibly intuitive, loving, conscientious and responsible. From the moment both my dog and I met her we immediately felt so comfortable with Rona. She brought out such playfulness in our shy girl who is usually quite timid around new people. I had Rona stay at our house and was incredibly responsible keeping me updated, clearly taking such kind and attentive care of out girl and she kept the house immaculate. I felt so safe having Rona who just radiates responsibility. I would recommend her anytime and will be using her again and again! She has a gift with dogs and people!”
About: I absolutely love caring for pets and making sure they feel happy and safe while you're away! 🐾 Whether it’s teaching playful puppies new tricks, giving extra love and patience to senior pets, or keeping up with your pet’s routine, I treat every furry friend like my own. I’m also comfortable with medications, special diets, and lots of snuggles. My goal is to make sure your pets feel loved and cared for every step of the way! ❤️ I have a flexible job that gives me plenty of time during the day for drop-ins and walks. On weekdays, I’m available for longer visits after 4 PM, and I have open availability on weekends. I’d love to help care for your pets whenever you need! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their usual routines. I provide fresh food and water, give plenty of potty breaks or walks, and spend quality time playing, snuggling, and keeping them company
“Dianne was amazing with our doggies. The dogs warmed up to her and loved all the playtime. They probably doesn’t want us to come home. Great updates throughout the stay and she went above and beyond.”
“Stephanie watched our cat and dog at our house over the holidays and did a great job! She spent a lot of time with our animals and gave updates/pics. We appreciated that she took in our mail, brushed our dog, and even cleaned a Roomba vac that ran over a pet mess. Highly recommend!”
About: As a lifetime dog and cat owner, I know the feeling of wishing you could do more for your pets. From volunteering at an animal shelter growing up to having a 60 pound hound, I am confident that I can provide your pet with great care. I work full time, from home and am able to make runs to homes for doggy potty breaks or longer visits. Early mornings are great and anytime after 3:00 I will always be available. I will be a companion for your animal, a friend. Being respectful of client’s houses is my top priority. I am working full time from home, making my schedule extremely flexible for pet care. Early mornings or late evenings all will work with my schedule. I will ensure gates are locked/ closed prior to letting pups out, if applicable. It is important to me that your pet has plenty of water in this Florida heat. The details are important to me.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. There is nothing better than spending time with animals. I put love and care into every interaction - even with random pets I see while on a walk! Animals deserve respect and companionship, especially when their loved ones are on a trip! I currently work as a barista, so I work in the mornings and have the rest of the day to hang around! I am also a student getting my Masters in Public Health online, so that allows me to still take care of your loved ones even while learning! I love to play with pets or match the energy they require - couch potatoes are just as fun, lol! Willing to follow any requirements for your sweet baby that will create stability while you’re gone (even the odd tendencies, my dog has some of his own haha).
About: I have always had a love for animals. I’m not sure where it came to grow from but honestly, I love that I have that love. I studied veterinary technology after I graduated high school, didn’t get to finish but plan to go back once I find a better place to stay. I worked at an animal clinic for 2 years and am currently back at the same one after moving away for a year. I have 3 years experience of being a kennel technician as well as pet bather. I have also dog sat and bathed my family’s pets. Can do anything morning, midday and night. I do have a full time job at a vet clinic so I know everything to look for. I have two friendly dogs that would love to have playmates. I do have a cat that stays away from everyone as she wants her own space. Working in a vet clinic, I know and understand body language well and have a way with dogs.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Brent is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brent
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!
Lindsey was amazing! Our go to sitter from here on out. We are so thankful for her great communication, looking after our babies and making our weekend away so easy! She stayed at our home with our two dogs and I had full trust! Very thankful that she loved on our babies and they love her already!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brent on Rover is $49.95 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 659 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brent. 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 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.
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 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 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 Brent. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
