Boba looked so happy in all the pictures and Alex did a great job building a relationship with him especially since Boba doesn’t usually like men. I plan to use Alex again in the future and am confident Boba is in good hands!”

“Tristen is hands-down the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. It is incredibly hard to find someone you trust completely with your animals, but Tristen makes it easy. They are super dependable, detail-oriented, and excellent at keeping us updated while we’re away. It is such a relief to travel knowing the crew isn't just being taken care of, but truly loved. Our pets absolutely adore Tristen, and we’ll definitely be keeping them on speed dial. If you want someone responsible and genuinely sweet, look no further.”

She stayed at our place, and was a wonderful guest in every way. Zaida exceeded our instructions and expectations in every way.”

Emily gave us great peace of mind while we were away on vacation. She was very reliable and communicative and watched our puppy for several hours for a few days. She gave us photos and daily updates for our high energy golden retriever puppy! We would happily recommend her and plan on rebooking her for our puppy soon!

We had a wonderful experience with Nadia as our house and dog sitter! This was her first stay with us, and she immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our home and our two dogs in her care. Nadia was incredibly communicative, attentive, and thoughtful throughout her stay. She kept us updated on how the dogs were doing, made sure they were fed and taken outside, and even asked questions about their routines when she wasn’t sure about something. She was also very respectful of our home and followed all of the little instructions we left for her. What really stood out to us was how much she genuinely cared about making sure the dogs were comfortable and taken care of. She even reached out for advice when one of the dogs was giving her a little trouble with his diaper, which showed us that she was patient and willing to make sure she was doing things the right way. By the end of the stay, we felt completely comfortable with Nadia. In fact, we’re having her come back to watch our two dogs for 9 nights while we’re away on our upcoming trip, which says a lot about how positive our experience was. Nadia was friendly, responsible, communicative, and treated our dogs and home with care. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets and their home!

I can't say enough good things about Lacey. She was kind, flexible, easygoing, and understanding, and she kept me in the loop with prompt, transparent updates the whole time I was away. Most important of all, my pups adored her. When I got home and the pups heard the building door open, they started barking, and every bark was an excited one. They had no idea yet who was coming up the stairs, but they knew they'd be happy to see whoever it was. That told me more about the depth of Lacey's loving care than anything else could have. I recommend her highly and without reservation, and I'd hire her again in a heartbeat!

Zaida was a fantastic pet/house sitter! We were in a bind and needed a sitter with short notice and she responded promptly and set up a house tour for the next day. She was fantastic with our two pups giving them plenty of attention and care. Very grateful for her daily updates and photos so we didn’t have to worry about a thing on our trip. Sebastian and Penelope both give Zaida four paws up and look forward to their next hang!

Monica was amazing! She was originally supposed to sit 2 dogs but my good boy passed away a couple of days before she came. I was so nervous and couldn’t cancel my trip (school) but she made sure that my girl (Panama) was well taken care of. It was her first time being an only dog and I felt terrible but Monica was amazing. Finally, they delivered my dogs ashes while I was away. She made sure to get them from the concierge and set them in a nice place until I got back. I can’t thank her enough and will definitely be my preferred sitter moving forward

FAQs for House Sitting - Brentwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Brentwood on Rover is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $94 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 10,808 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.

<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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brentwood. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
