About: Although I'm new to professional pet sitting, I've always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for them. For the past six months, I've volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I've helped care for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes by feeding, cleaning, walking, socializing, and making sure they felt safe and comfortable. I'm patient, dependable, and treat every pet like they're my own. I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are in the care of trustworthy people, and I'm committed to providing loving, attentive care at every visit. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I'll make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and exercise they need while you're away. I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for both of us. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner's care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special routines. Through my volunteer experience at an animal shelter, I've learned how to safely handle dogs with different personalities and needs. I'll treat your pet like one of my own and provide regular updates so you can feel confident they're in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: I’ve had no less than 3 dogs and as many as 5 for the last 25 years. All things dog put me in my happy place and I’d love to help you out with yours. I’ve had puppies and seniors and everything in between. I work part time so I’m semi flexible. Tell me what you need and I’ll do my best to make it work. I’d love to add to my end of week and weekend work. I have a fully fenced backyard and a separate fenced side yard. Both have shady areas. I also don’t mind having pets in my home so I’d imagine they would be inside with me the majority of the time. I’m also open to whatever you need for your pet in your home.

“I highly recommend Ann! She took amazing care of my two dogs while I was on vacation and she truly went above and beyond. She played with them, gave them lots of attention, and treated them like they were her own. She is incredibly kind and professional. She gave several updates every day with the best pictures of the dogs. She gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dogs were in such great hands. I appreciate her genuine care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hello :) I’m a Mom to humans, 3 dogs, 1 cat and a bird. I know it can be super stressful leaving your pets behind. I also know it’s hard to find a petsitter that will take care of your babies like their own. That’s what I’m here for! I’ll make sure they have everything they need while you are away, including lots of love. During my visits I can walk them, play with them, clean cages, litter boxes, and provide fresh food and water. Basically anything that will make your pets more comfortable while you’re away. Loving them is my favorite part, and I have a helper that likes to join me sometimes, my daughter. I do not charge for second animal or more during a drop in or housesitting. I’m happy to watch dogs, cats, birds including parrots and caged animals. I can only board for one family at a time. Your furry friend will be treated like family while at my house. Between myself, my kids and my mom, they will have lots of attention and love. I do foster puppies for a rescue, so at times I may have extras in the home. My home is open to board small spayed or neutered dogs that can get along with mine. They will have constant attention and lots of love. They'll have the freedom to play inside and outside, also to lay on the couch and watch tv. For night time, they can sleep in a kennel, play pen or in bed with a human. They MUST be trained to potty outside. No potty pads. Unless they’re puppies of course. During Drop Ins: I’m happy to grab mail, water plants and put out the trash. During Housesitting: I can stay in your home for up to 10 hrs. Example, stay 9pm - 6:30am with a 30 minute midday drop-in. Up for negotiation! Can only do this for 1-2 nights at a time since I have a family and pets at home. I will NOT walk dogs when the temperature is 85 and up.

About: Hi! My name is Kelvin, and I'm here to help make sure your beloved pets are cared for with the highest level of attention and love. 🐾 I enjoy answering your questions—and asking a few of my own—to better understand your pet’s unique personality and needs. I'm really looking forward to meeting your dog, and so is my own furry friend, Eevee! She just turned 4 years old and she is spayed! My goal is simple: after a fun and fulfilling walk, your dog will be happy, relaxed, and ready to rest for the rest of the day. Eevee and I are excited to get to know you and your pet. See you soon! I would love the opportunity to dog sit or walk dogs in the mornings through early afternoon, if possible. I'm available Monday through Friday until 2:30 PM. I coach at Jefferson High School in Daly City and need to be there in the afternoons. I have a house with a backyard and a spacious living room where my dog and your dog(s) can play together. I'm also happy to take your dog on long walks with my dog, Eevee, so everyone gets plenty of exercise and is tired out for the rest of the day! Our walks often include hills and trails, offering lots of great sniffing opportunities.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs alike for friends and family forever! I am great with making meals, administering medication, and keeping things clean! Please message me to schedule a meet & greet! ♡ I can work any day, any time! My hours are extremely flexible. I can work for just 2 hours or I can stay overnight if needed! I follow instructions exactly as they're given, including feed times & medication administration. I love following things by the book, so in my mind, having "too many" instructions isn't a thing!

About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration  • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!).  One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.

About: Your dog will stay on our private ranch with plenty of room to play, explore, and relax in a safe, supervised environment. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers a slower pace, I tailor their care to fit their individual needs. I treat every dog like one of my own and strive to provide a safe, enriching, and stress free stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'm experienced with dogs of all ages, from young puppies to seniors. Having raised multiple litters, I'm comfortable with puppy routines, potty training, and socialization, while also understanding the patience and attention senior dogs need, including medication administration and mobility support. I am not taking on reactive/aggressive dogs at this time unless they can be kenneled outside of the home. Reach out to discuss. Full time dog boarder and trainer working from home. I provide 24/7 care as if your dog was one of my own. Pickup and drop off hours in morning or evening. Very limited afternoon pickup/drop off availability. 5 acres fully fenced in along with smaller fenced in play yards. Home is air conditioned. Dogs can either exercise on the full property if recall trained or in one of the smaller, 6ft tall play yard areas if they need a smaller enclosed area.

“I’ve known Vicky for sometime now and she’s always been mature, responsible and a pet lover. So when I found out she does pet sitting, it was a no brainer that I’d be booking with her. She was communicative and was definitely invested in caring for my cats. Especially my senior who requires oral meds. My youngest cat warmed up to her so quickly to my surprise!! Definitely will book with her again.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, fish, and other beloved pets — learning that every animal has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and lovingly care for their pets while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, active, and genuinely loved in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like family. As a gentle added touch, I’m also experienced in animal reiki, which I’m happy to incorporate during visits if welcomed by both pet and owner to help encourage relaxation and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are with love, warmth and care. I currently work part-time. I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am available most days and weekends, including most holidays. I have a fenced dog-friendly where your dog can roam and play. I have a beautiful lawn and a beautiful tree lined neighborhood for long walks.

Taylor was absolute perfection during her 4-day house stay while I was away for a work conference! My dog is 18 months old and 130 lbs, so he is a large, energetic boy who can get spooked by new things and really relies on a steady routine. Because I work remotely, he is used to having constant companionship. Taylor provided incredible care, kept him company almost the entire time, and maintained his daily schedule beautifully. When it rained, she spent quality time snuggling with him inside, and during breaks in the weather, she made sure to take him on structured sniffaris to meet his physical and mental needs. She sent photo updates from morning until night, providing complete peace of mind. I came home to a calm, relaxed, and thoroughly well-loved dog who would be overjoyed to welcome Taylor back anytime. She was respectful of my home, wonderfully communicative, and truly attentive. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

FAQs for House Sitting - Brentwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Brentwood is $70 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $96 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,995 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brentwood. 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 Brentwood 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 Brentwood 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 Brentwood 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.
