“She was amazing, she took my baby to get her puppy cup and also sent pictures throughout the day. My baby is quite shy and she was really patient with her 💕 I'll definitely recommend Katherine and I'll be booking again.”
“This was Courtney's first time to sit for me. She was very attentive to my babies and sent me photos on a daily basis. I appreciate her care and we'll be using her in the future!”
“Caelyn was great! We did a last minute booking and she took great care of our pups. She watched all 3 at the same time and she did great communicating with us. Strongly recommend to book her!”
“Kayla was fantastic!! I absolutely recommend hiring her and plan to rebook her for our future vacations. It’s always scary/nerve racking hiring someone new to take care of your fur babies and house sit but Kayla was great! She came by twice before our trip. Once to meet the fur babies and get acquainted with our place and then a second time right before we left to go over specifics for our animals and house. We hired her to both pet and house sit for us and when we got home our fur babies, house, plants, and packages were all very well taken care of! She was ver communicative while we were away and always responded promptly if I had any questions or wanted to check in. Not only did she house sit, but she also stayed the night at our place so our pups felt safe and comfortable sleeping. We’ve got quite a zoo and she handled all three dogs and two cats wonderfully. All in all, she was great and I highly recommend her! I’m happy to say that I think we’ve finally found a sitter I feel comfortable and confident hiring again. Thank you, Kayla!”
“Tatum is so great! She is very responsive and attentive. Our two boys just love her! She is definitely our new go-to after our last sitter‘s moved out of the area. We are excited to book her again – the dogs are too!”
“Isabella took care of my cat for 5 days, and both she and her partner were incredibly kind, polite, and flexible. Whenever I asked, they sent me photos and videos of my cat and kept me updated about how he was doing. Thanks to them, I felt much more relaxed and comfortable while I was away from my little cat. I truly appreciate their care and support.”
“This was my first time using Felicia. She did a great job, communicated well, & sent videos and pictures to keep me updated. She followed instructions and spent time outside with my dog, which he loves. I'm glad she was able to dog sit and look forward to having her do it again soon!”
About: I have grown up with animals since I can remember. I have cared for all sizes and breeds and have raised a few from birth. I also have chickens and have been around livestock. I am very detail oriented and will always ask questions if I am unsure. I also work in home healthcare so I am used to taking care of pets in my patients homes. I love animals and will always treat and care for them as my own. I am starting school so I am flexible. My weekends are pretty free but I will always be available if you trust me to watch your baby! I have a fully fenced yard, plenty of room, and a barn with an ac unit if your baby likes to have their own space. I have two Dalmatians that are both neutered and very friendly. I will always have my eyes on them because I would never want to put your baby in an uncomfortable environment. My dogs are very used to being around others but are trained enough to be able to be separate areas of the house/ yard if needed.
“She did great with my dog and followed the instructions I left perfectly. I loved that she sent pictures everyday with updates at least twice a day. Will be booking again if needed.”
“William was an amazing house sitter/dog sitter! He took very good care of my animals and left the house spotless! You could really tell the dogs had a good time while I was gone and I had peace of mind knowing they were being cared for so well. I got text message and picture updates throughout our vacation the communication was great and I would definitely use him again. Very trustworthy and kind. 5/5 stars for sure!”
About: I have great experience in both dogs and cats. I’ve raised both of my kittens since they were about a month old, so I am confident in working with younger pets in addition to seniors. I grew up with dogs, whom it was my sole responsibility to take care of. I have experience with all different dog personality types, including hyper. I am confident in my ability to care for either your cat or dogs needs! I am a full time student at Tech who typically works full time throughout the school year. This summer I am taking online courses and that is my only engagement. I am available most of the time to help you and your pet in any way you need! I think watching a pet in their own home/environment is important to them feeling safe and secure. I can ensure that anything the pet needs, I will be there to do it. I love notes and instructions, and would love to know your pets daily schedule, medications, treats, and any crucial information for your pet’s needs, and will follow it to a T.
“Shayla is probably one of the best sitters we’ve had in a long time. Attentive, communicative, respectful and caring! Samson and Dotty were truly spoiled with her here and I know they were very happy with all the attention from their new friend!”
About: I have two years of clinical pet care under my belt so I’ve already seen it all. I can handle medicating, walking, feeding, and much more. I currently have plenty of spare time to take care of your pets as needed. Whether that be walking, medicating, feeding, letting them outside, and playing! I will care for your pets like they’re my own, I have plenty of experience in both my own life and in a clinical sense.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Broadview
Courtney did an excellent job of caring for our girls. She is absolutely amazing with communication, and not only did she follow the instructions that we left, the house was in wonderful shape when we got back. Our pups were clearly well cared for, and I really appreciated all of the update photos she sent. She really went above and beyond. Will absolutely be booking with Courtney again.
I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure my girls were comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. She kept me updated and truly treated them like her own, which gave me so much peace of mind. My girls came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares. 10/10!!
Julia is an absolute pro at caring for dogs. I have multiple, and she is very detail oriented and writes down everything that is needed as far as care. She stayed at my house while I was traveling for work and did an extraordinary job, and would want to recommend her to everyone, but that would only make her less available to me. She is outstanding, courteous, trustworthy, and polite. And above all else loves dogs and has had years experience, caring for them, and gives them lots of attention and affection. She is amazing!
Danielle was fantastic! She took such great care of my pet and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly responsible and always responsive—any time I had a question, she got back to me quickly. I especially appreciated the daily updates with photos, which showed my baby eating well and looking happy. It was clear Danielle truly cared and went the extra mile. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive petsitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Broadview on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 252 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Broadview. 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 Broadview 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 Broadview 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 Broadview 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 Broadview. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
