“I appreciate Barry getting my pups out on short notice while I couldn’t be home with them! I feel bad leaving them for long days, but have comfort knowing they get some time outside along with care and attention while I’m away!”
“It's always a great experience with Jeremy & Rui. They've watched my pets several times over the years and I never have to worry about a thing! They go the extra mile and always send a ton of pictures which I love!”
About: I have had my own dogs ranging from Yorkies to Huskies and everything in between for the last 12 years. Hosting dogs have been one of my greatest joys. Special skills in doggy CPR, and experience in medicating dogs when needed. I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to work from home as well when needed. I am available everyday of the week, and would just need 24 hours to do any pick up or drop off. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs of my own to keep your pup company, and have a crate available if needed for them to have a comfortable place to stay.
“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”
About: Hello pet parents! I'm a 24/7 cat mom to a 3 years old cat child. I grew up having a Shiba Inu as a family dog and she passed away due to old age. Because of my lifestyle and work schedule, I decided to be a cat mom instead but my love for dogs is still there. My services and availability are limited due to my full time profession. I’m off on saturdays, sundays, and federal holidays. On weekdays, I get home around 5:45 - 6 PM so I'll be available for cat parents to drop-off/pick up their kids. **NO PET ABANDONMENT** - If you're unable to care for your pet and would like to surrender, please contact your local animal shelter or animal control. I’m off on saturdays, sundays, and federal holidays. On weekdays, I'm home around 5:45 - 6 PM so I'll be available for cat parents to drop-off/pick up their kids. Please keep in mind that the only time I will cancel your booking is when I'm sick or have emergencies that I cannot avoid Boarding: Your cat will have his/her own litter box. My home is tidy and is on the ground floor so your cat will get to see all types of animals outside. Drop-In: Feeding, scooping litter, playtime, changing water, clean up hairballs if needed.
“Need someone last minute. John responded promptly and was very communicative during his stay since it was his first time looking after my dog. Took him for a pee break and a little walk and gave him treats and my dog looked happy. Very pleased. Thanks!”
“Michele was EXCELLENT! Super patient with our little girl who takes a bit of time to warm up and trust new people. By the end she was a purring machine!! Highly recommend!!”
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs, quick to notice changes in behavior, and always focused on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I currently have a daytime weekday schedule through mid-June, so during the school year I’m typically available after 4:30 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. Starting in the summer, I’ll have much more flexibility with increased weekday and weekend availability. I’m also happy to communicate and work with pet owners to accommodate schedules whenever possible. While caring for your pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, from feeding and walk schedules to playtime routines and any special needs. I always keep their environment clean, provide fresh water, and give plenty of attention and affection. My goal is to make each pet feel at home, no matter where they are.
About: I have 10+ years experience as a dog walker/sitter but have had pets (dogs) mainly all my life and and able to take care of and meet new dogs are the highlight of my life. I care for them like I would my own and ensure an amazing time. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and am okay with cats as well! I am available full time with the pups as I work towards getting certified being a Veterinary Assistant. My true passion is animals and will be learning everything I can to ensure a comfortable, safe and loving environment. I treat each pup and/or kitty as if they're my own, I am very attentive and caring. I am respectful of my client's home and keep their home as comfortable and clean just as I would want someone to do the same for me. I am also happy to send over references!
About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Animals love me and I love them. I don’t have any pets at this time and would love to help care for yours. I’m currently self employed and create my own schedule which is very flexible. I have plenty of free time to care for pets. No worries for frequent potty trips. My home has a fenced in yard so perfect for playtime. Lots of birds and squirrels parading around for amusement. Very comfortable and reliable to come to your home as well.
“Shannon is AMAZING! She agreed to take my Charlie out after a few sitters turned me down due to timing. She is reliable, punctual and dependable. I have peace of mind knowing Charlie is in good hands with her. She also takes great photos of Charlie :).”
“Abby was absolutely amazing with my puppy. She followed instructions, took initiative and truly cared for my pup like her own. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a reliable responsible punctual caring pet sitter.”
“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!”
“Valleri was great! She was responsive, attentive to our instructions and needs, kind, and sent cute pictures of our cats while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and use her help again in the future.”
“Nicole was a great sport in helping me train Ellis to strangers and walk around the block, in the cold no less! She was wonderfully kind to Ellis, very soothing in tone and mannerisms, and by the end of our little session, Ellis was perfectly comfortable with her! Would trust her with Ellis again!”
About: I've taken care of many pets since I was a little girl and have a dog of my own. I just love animals so much! I take care of my own dog daily! We go on hikes and walks easily because I work from home. I believe every day should be exciting and fun because we only have our fur babies for so long. I have the friendliest Golden Retriever that loves having a pal! I live in a home with a yard that is fully fenced for pet safety.
About: I owned a dog for 7 years so I have a lot of experience with caretaking and training. I want to use those skills to help other people with their pets! I work full-time but have 2 days during the week where I work from home. So its very easy for me to pop in and check a dog or take it on a walk. At home I have a large yard with a doggy dog to go outside at my house. Other people home I follow whatever rules they have.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brockton
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 Pet Sitting in Brockton on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 10,656 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 Brockton. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
