“Julie is the BEST and if you are not using her you really are missing out! Her love for our pets is so sincere, and she is always going above and beyond making sure that our girls are well loved in our absence. I would not want anyone else taken care of her.”
“Was thrilled to be able to easily find a sitter pretty last minute for labor day weekend! If I'm in need of services in the future I'd happily book with Katie again if possible.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old and have been house sitting and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for the past 5 years. Throughout that time, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to give owners peace of mind by providing dependable, attentive care. I typically work Saturday through Wednesday from 6:00am to 3:00pm. During these hours, I may be away for my shift, but I always make sure pets are cared for before I leave and immediately after I return. I plan my schedule around their needs as much as possible and communicate clearly with owners to ensure their pet’s routine stays consistent and comfortable. I care for pets by ensuring they are fed, have fresh water, receive plenty of exercise and attention, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s regular routine, so I always do my best to follow their schedule for meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and bedtime. I also have experience administering medications. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog that required medication every morning and evening, as well as a senior dog with arthritis who needed oral medication each night. I know how important consistency is, and I’m committed to following each pet’s care instructions closely to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable.
About: Ever since we rescued our first dog when I was a teenager, I have felt a special bond with these amazing creatures. While I am not a professional trainer, I have attended beginner and intermediate dog training classes with my own pups and will happily enforce any training you already have in place in your household. I will also spoil your dog rotten if you wish. Whatever you say goes! Dog care is currently my primary source of employment and my schedule is incredibly flexible, so I will easily be able to accommodate any schedule. I we'll be happy to come visit and walk with your dog, rain or shine. While I did not list doggie daycare or overnight stays on my list of services, I do have a fenced-in backyard and small house with plenty of comfy spots for doggies to sleep. However, we would have to arrange a meet-and-greet with my own small dog first.

I know how to take care of small animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, hamsters, and gerbils! I have been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I know how to break up potential dog fights and how to take extra caution while walking a reactive dog. I am an 18 year old college student, and I have a very flexible schedule!

Monday & Wednesday: 6am-9am, 11am-Noon, 1:30pm-Midnight Tuesday: 6am-11:45am, 2:15pm-Midnight Thursday: 6am-9am, 11am-Noon, 2:15-Midnight Friday-Sunday: 6am-Midnight I will only be able to care for your animals in your home, the dorms do not allow pets, but I am willing to take dogs out on adventures to different parks around the area if you are okay with them being in my car. I use a seatbelt leash for any dogs, I do not let pets be unrestrained in my vehicle but I am also willing to just take them on a walk around the neighborhood! I am able to come for any feeding times and just to let them out to go potty and run around the yard!
“Nancy & Kevin were awesome! They treated Coco like their own & we don’t think she missed us at all. We would highly recommend them if you have a loving dog who is used to lots of hugs & attention.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. They are not like family, they are family. Many friends and relatives have entrusted me to care for their pets for short and long stays at my home where they receive love, attention, play, and care. When caring for your pets, they will not be alone for more than 4 hours at a time during the weekday. Evenings and weeknights they will not be alone for more than an hour at a time. I have a large fenced yard and close access to a public park for walks. I enjoy playing with animals and giving them attention and care.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. This includes cats and dogs with special needs such as permanent injuries, animal aggression and seizures. Volunteered at animal shelters all of middle and high school. Very loving and kind with all animals. I work full time as an electrician, however my schedule is very flexible and I have all weekends off. I only work a regular 8 hour day and have plenty of time to spare after work for your beloved furry family member. I live in an apartment but fortunately it has its own dog park area, nearby parks, walking paths and hiking locations. I am very active and enjoy high energy dogs, but I also enjoy relaxing and giving plenty of ear scratches to dogs that like their lazy days.
“I am so grateful for Ara! She did amazing with my young, large dog who can be a handful sometimes. She was very attentive and went above & beyond, making sure all my animals had their needs met & enough attention and love. I appreciate the communication I received as well throughout my trip. Will absolutely be using her again!”

I especially love keeping active dogs busy with walks and mental stimulation! I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is doing well. ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 417 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Brighton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brighton. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
