“Briana house sat and watched our cat for us while we were away for 4 days, the longest we had been away from him so far. We received daily photos and videos with updates of our boy relaxed and happy! Everything went smoothly and Briana was wonderful! Would recommend her for anyone else and happily have her watch our kitty again!”
“Adriana made going oversees for the first time so easy. She was organized and kept us up to date each day on how our two pups were doing. She also took great care of the house for 10 days. We are so so grateful for her help, and we will definitely rebook!”
“Evangeline was very accommodating to adjusting to the small time change i made. She was on time and stayed the whole time. Left the house spotless as well. Always answered any questions through text. She was great for my girls.”
“Lejune never disappoints. My dog is happy and healthy, my house looks just like I left it, and she communicated with me the entire time we were away. We will absolutely book her again!”
“This was our first time utilizing ROVER sitters, and I am so glad we were led to Lindsey. From our initial meet and greet, our three-year-old playful and energetic Shepherd Theo loved her.She asked very thoughtful questions about his routine, and we could tell she genuinely loves animals. She quickly put our minds at ease as we had to go out of town for the day. I highly recommend Lindsay and we will definitely be reaching out to her again.🤗”
About: I was born and raised on a family farm. From the time I was born I have been riding in tractors and taking care of all sorts of animals. Growing up we always had dogs and cats in our home. I have always loved rescuing strays and rehabilitating injured animals of all shapes and sizes. I now have three fur babies of my very own and they are my life! If you entrust your pet with me I will not take it lightly as it is a deep honor and privilege. I love spoiling animals and giving them all the love. If I ever won the lottery I would adopt all of the oldest animals at the shelter and take them to my pet sanctuary. Please consider booking me so that I can continue to stay at home with my human baby as much as possible! 🐾 I am very part time right now since I stay home with my little one. I pick up evening shifts here and there but I am fairly free in the evenings once my husband gets home from work. Let me know what you need and we can work out a routine! I typically work with children and for that reason I understand the importance of trust, flexibility, and kindness. I will always uphold your privacy and I promise to do my best in every situation. I like to call myself an “over communicator” so I will always share details on your pet and I’m pretty good at taking pictures of fur babies too!
“Michael was great... he kept me updated with photos and was in and out as if he was never there! Followed my requests for my dog to a T! Highly, highly recommended! Very responsive. Thank you, Michael!”
“We're grateful to find someone that we can trust in our house and with our pets. She also took care of our daughters pets while we were away on vacation!!!! Great communication through text/Rover app.”
“Kaylee was great! She was so communicative and took such good care of our dog. She left our house cleaner than she found it. I would recommend Kaylee to anyone looking for a professional and caring pet sitter.”

About: Hi there! My name is Anissa (Nis), I am a reliable, patient, loving, safety-first dog walker and animal sitter based in Frederick, MD and Martinsburg, WV. Whether your dog needs a brisk midday walk, a trip around the park, or your animals require an attentive drop-in visit, I’m here to help burn off that extra energy and provide peace of mind for you while I care for your best friend(s), as well as your home! As a current Dachshund mom of 2 anxious angels with very specific needs, a cat mom, and mom of many other babies that I loved before them, I am comfortable with all sizes/breeds, anxiety levels, specific/complex needs, and prioritize positive reinforcement, calm handling, and showing the same kindness that I would provide for my own animals. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies/ferrets/bunnies/other small furry friends to senior dogs needing slow strolls, patience, and joint care. When I care for your babies, you will receive a detailed report, and photos during/after every single outing, as well as anything else that would make you feel more comfortable while your children are in my care. If you are looking for someone to love your family members like their own and ease any completely understandable anxiety you may have when trusting someone with a piece of your heart, please send me a message to chat or schedule a meet-and-greet! I currently work in Frederick from 8-4 M-F with flexibility to step away and return as needed during the work day. I have full availability on the weekends as I do not have any current commitments. I am flexible throughout the Frederick, MD area at any time, as well as house-sitting, and visits before/after 8am-4pm in the following locations: Martinsburg, WV Hagerstown, MD Shepherstown, WV Williamsport, MD as I have a unique situation and am able to stay/commute from any of those locations. When caring for your animals in your home, I strive to keep their normal routine, ensure safety, and maintain the household according to specific owner instructions in hopes to provide the same peace of mind that I require when leaving my own babies under the care of someone else.

“We happily give Pam 5 Stars, and we would give her more if we could! Pam is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She is very affectionate with our 3 fur babies, all of whom really love her! That is no small task, as our dog, Rufus isn't particularly friendly with strangers. She graciously traveled an hour to meet him ahead of time and to see if we were all a good fit. She worked her magic, and Rufus found a new friend. Our very shy cat, Honey even came out to say 'Hello', and she usually hides from people. Our kitten, Yoshi truly is, as Pam described him "a hot mess ... and he should have his own TicTok channel" Yoshi really is quite a hoot, and a bit of a handful, but super sweet. All 3 of our furbabies really took to Pam, and we were all very comfortable leaving them and our home in her kind and responsible care. We also felt like we made a new friend! My husband was having surgery 2 hours from home, which was extremely stressful for us. Pam helped ease our minds by sending us regular pictures and updates. She was also very kind in checking in on us to see how things were going with his surgery. She did everything possible to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible. She didn't even complain when I handed her a 5 page handwrtten set of information. So, we highly recommend Pam as a wonderful pet & home sitter. We really hope we will have another opportunity to have her take care of our fur babies and our home in the future, hopefully for a fun reason next time. She will always be our first choice! Thank You, Pam! We couldn't have gotten thru all of this without you! We are forever grateful! Sherri, Pete, Rufus, Honey & Yoshi”
“Jenna was absolutely fabulous when watching our baby, Bella, for a weekend! First of all she’s so incredibly sweet and we knew Bella would be in loving hands. Jenna focused on doing all the things Bella loved: playing fetch in the yard, going to the dog park, long walks, and cuddles in bed! Despite rainy weather, Jenna still took the time to do all these things with her. At the end of day Jenna sent many pictures of Bella’s day and sent a sweet recap! It felt so good from miles away knowing Bella was having the time of her life (most likely not even missing mom & dad!) She even worked on commands with her, which is much appreciated!!! Jenna also left our home like she was never even there! Clean and bed sheets stripped for easy washing :) Thank you Jenna!!! If you want someone to love your dog like their own - book Jenna!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Broadfording
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Broadfording. 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 Broadfording 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 Broadfording 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 Broadfording 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
