Absolutely. I’d make it a little warmer and more polished while keeping it natural: Emily did an amazing job taking care of my two pups while I was away for two weeks. She was very communicative whenever something needed my attention, but was also incredibly independent and trustworthy in caring for them. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. I would absolutely recommend Emily!

Kimberly came over multiple times in a week to let our dog out while my husband was away. She is always on time and gives so much attention to our dog which is so appreciated when he is home alone all day. We can’t recommend her enough!

About: Hi there! My name is Rachel and I absolutely love dogs! I have a dog of my own, his name is Chipper and he’s a chocolate lab, he’s the best😋 but I have always loved dogs and being around them. I do everything for my own dog, varying from walking him to giving him a tubby! We always watch my extended families dogs too whenever they go on vacation or out of town, so I’m very trustworthy when it comes to taking care of dogs, in all shapes and sizes. Bigger dogs can tend to scare some people, but not me! I’m happy to be with any type of dog, no matter the size of them. If you don’t believe me, just ask my own dog and he can vouch for me ☺️

About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I’ve had 3 years of experience helping care for dogs and cats. Now pursuing art, I’m looking to continue to help take care of pets.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have cared for many different animals, including dogs, cats, and many more. I’m experienced with energetic puppies who need patience and structure, as well as senior pets who require gentle, attentive care! I’m very reliable and follow routines closely, which is why many families trust me and book with me again and again. I truly love animals and always treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m a college sophomore, and pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. When I’m not in class, I dedicate my time to caring for pets and making sure they get consistent attention and care. I attend college about 25 minutes away, which allows me to stay flexible and reliable with scheduling. I’m currently on winter break until late January, so I have extra availability and flexibility during this time! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, maintain routines, and make sure pets are in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I’m attentive to details like feeding schedules, medications, and any special needs! I treat every home with respect and always communicate with updates and photos so pet parents feel at ease. I aim to create a safe, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away!

About: I have experience working with dogs and cats through pet sitting and hospital experience. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years, chinchillas for the past 5 years, and hedgehogs for the past 7 years. I am able to detect symptoms and abnormalities that may require medical attention. I enjoy bringing my pets to a variety of places such as state parks, pet stores and public pet events. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I do not mind staying over for overnight care. My time is pretty flexible for now and I am able to drive to locations within an hour radius using my own car. I have a finished basement that would be used for the pets I care for. It has a bathroom with a hand held shower for easy bathing. I have a crate available for use for dogs under 30 pounds. The basement also has direct access to the back yard for easier potty times. The temperature in the basement is cool during the summer. In the winter the temperature would be adjusted using an electric fire place. Dogs would get enrichment through daily walks, puzzle toys and trick training. Cats would have access to the whole basement to free roam but will not have access to outdoors.

Diana took great care of our cats for just over a week and with one of our cats having relatively recently been in the hospital. Two of our three cats are shy around folks they don't know but clearly they warmed up to playing and being around Diana! Our cats were in good spirits and looked happy upon our return.

About: *Please Note, Boarding Services Are Only Available for Hypoallergenic, Non-Shedding Dogs, as I live with someone who is allergic* Hi! I'm Lindsey, and I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else—that's why I treat every pup as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, happy, and part of the family. Whether your pup loves to play, snuggle on the couch, explore on walks, or simply relax, I tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so you'll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your dog's stay. I want you to enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is happy, loved, and in great hands. I understand that every dog is different, so I'm happy to follow your feeding schedule, medication routine, exercise preferences, and any special instructions to help keep things as familiar as possible. When your dog stays with me, they're not just another booking—they become part of the family. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I work full time in the Athletic Department at Bridgewater State University! I work approximately 9-5, but am only ~15 minutes away from my house and can go home on lunch breaks for potty breaks, play time, and cuddles! I have one 8 year old, 75-pound, Goldendoodle, named Trooper who LOVES friends...so your pup will never be alone! We live in a condo complex with lots of other dogs around, and a small fenced in area for off-leash play!

Lauren was wonderful! Excellent communication skills, and took great care of our two Aussies. She sent lots of picks and went above and beyond! They also warmed up to her quickly (which is unusual and speaks a lot to her character and skill with pets!)!!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs all my life. Dog sitting for my aunt for when she went on vacation and cat sitting for friends and co workers! I love animals and would love to help others as well! I am currently employed at Mansfield deli. I usually work 5-7 days a week but my schedule varies. I get my schedule on a weekly basis so I’m not really sure of my schedule ahead of time but I normally work the same hours every week! Unfortunately I am not able to have other animals in my home due to having my own cats and dogs but I would love to care for other animals in the homes they are comfortable in. I am very well adjusted and have plenty of experience with pet sitting to help keep animals safe and taken care of! In my home we have 2 dogs and 2 cats.

About: Growing up in a household full of pets, I have had a lot of experience caring for animals. Throughout my life, I've cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, horses, and chickens. As an adult, it has been a wonderful experience adopting my very own cat, as well as being able to care for the pets of my friends and family. As a teacher, I am available after school hours, Monday-Friday, after 3 pm. I am also available on Saturdays from 12 pm to 7 pm. My hours will change during the summer, with more availability. I adopted my cat, Lacey, six years ago, and she has truly become my best friend. She is very well cared for and sees her veterinarian annually. As an indoor cat, she gets plenty of exercise through daily playtime and her favorite zoomies around the house. Lacey was diagnosed with asthma five years ago and has received consistent, attentive care ever since. When caring for your pet, I will make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and safe in my care. They will receive the right balance of love, food, and play, just as I provide for Lacey. I’m also a proud chicken mom! I enjoy giving my chickens treats and watching them soak up the beautiful weather from their coop. My chickens are pets, not food, and they are cared for with the same love and attention.

Jazmyn was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! We were honestly very nervous about leaving them with someone new because our dogs, especially our female dog Kali, usually don’t like new people. We were amazed to see how comfortable and happy they were with Jazmyn from the beginning. She was so sweet, patient, and caring with them. She really took the time to understand our dogs and gave them the care and attention they needed. Jazmyn even came by in the evening just to let them outside to do their pee business, which we really appreciated. We are so thankful to Jazmyn for taking such great care of our dogs. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! 🐾

Excellent experience with Brian! He took his time to ensure Ellie got the attention, love and care she needs. He also allowed time for her to get out her "zoomies". And he actually spent longer than the paid time with her playing and walking her. Overall, I would absolutely work with Brian again. 10/10

Svitlana went above and beyond in caring for our elderly dog and elderly cat in two visits coving dinner and a 2nd visit taking the dog out in the rain, then helping the cat eat more, as he only eats a little at a time. She was a pleasure to meet at the meet & great and a please to work with around this day of two visits.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Brockton on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 10,072 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Brockton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Brockton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Brockton 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Brockton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 90% 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.

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.
