“Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.”
“Once again I loved having Kyra check in on my cat while I was out of town! She is an excellent communicator and always follows instructions! I know my girl is in good hands whenever Kyra stops by! I never have to worry, I really appreciate her!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since birth. I have so much love in my heart for my fur babies, and It’ll be the same for your fur babies. I’m huge on not only building trust with Pet parents, but the pets themselves. They all deserve the world. Pet care fits into my routine just like any responsibility I take seriously. Every day I make sure my pet is fed, hydrated, and gets enough attention and activity. Throughout the week, I stay on top of grooming and keeping their space clean so they’re always comfortable. It’s really about consistency and discipline, making sure they’re good no matter how busy I am. I have a fenced yard, and two friendly dogs. They go for walks every day, get fed twice a day and lots of snacks. They hate baths and getting their teeth brushed but it’s a need. They also get lots and lots of playtime.
“Just wow - kristina is a TOP TIER cat sitter! One of my kittos was scared and wouldn’t come out - she was relentless in coaxing him out and has now throughly bonded with him. I’m so grateful! Her persistence and kitty know-how helped me feel so comfortable and sweet relief that my kitties were in good hands.”
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve attended dog grooming school and have professional experience in the grooming industry, along with years of dog sitting and caring for pets for families. I currently work in the dog grooming industry Thursday through Saturday. This gives me the opportunity to work with dogs on top of dog sitting. I am currently available for dog walking Sunday through Wednesday Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! With years of experience working with animals, including professional dog grooming and pet sitting, I understand how important it is to provide a safe and loving environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I always follow each pet’s individual routine and any special instructions provided by their family.
“Amanda was so amazing with our scaredy cat who had never stayed away from our house before! She was incredibly patient with our kitty, made her feel safe and comfortable in new surroundings, and kept me updated to ease my mind. So grateful for Amanda treating our kitty like her own!”
“Nicole is an angel! There’s very few people I’d trust with my cats and Nicole is definitely one of them . She sends daily pictures and updates ,Followed through with directions and had fantastic attention to detail. 10/10 !!!”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 tortoise, fish, frogs, snails. I’m able to care for any sort of pet, with any sort of personality, and I take great care of the house, plants, and garden! I want to do Rover full time, so I’m open for booking! I’ve been cat and dog sitting off the app for the past 3 years part-time I currently live with my 5 year old Tabby named Bea and my family dog Cooper, a 4 year old golden doodle. I have a reliable means transportation, and am prompt with responses and updates!
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years, from childhood through adulthood, and have personally cared for five dogs over that time. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, so I understand the attention, patience, exercise, and love that goes into making sure they’re happy and comfortable. My current dog, Reyna, is a loving 4-year-old Micro Bully/Frenchie mix with plenty of personality. Caring for her has given me even more hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, exercise, and understanding a dog’s individual needs and behaviors. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. Whether I’m stopping in for a visit, going for a walk, or spending more time with them while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and care I give my own. I work remotely and have a very flexible daily schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine. Even on days when I have meetings scheduled, I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and spending quality time with your pets. I do train a couple of evenings during the week, but it shouldn’t interfere with providing consistent and reliable care. Working from home gives me the ability to plan around each pet’s normal routine rather than expecting them to adjust to mine. Whether your pet needs attention during the workday, a midday walk, or care while you’re away, I can be flexible and make sure they’re getting the time and attention they need. My home is already set up with pets in mind. My cats have plenty of comfortable spaces throughout the apartment, including a cat tower, a window perch, and different areas where they can relax or have their own space. My dog also has access to a dog park within my apartment complex, which makes regular exercise, playtime, and outdoor breaks easy and convenient. My dog and cats are all comfortable around each other and live together peacefully. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I understand how important it is to keep them comfortable by maintaining the routine and environment they’re already familiar with. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and any other routines you have in place. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and get plenty of attention while you’re away.
“Steve is great to work with. Very reliable and concerned. I have 2 cats and like most cats they may never make an appearance. He was very concerned but kept me posted and the texted photos were appreciated.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Brookdale
Olga took great care of Mango while we were away for the weekend. She followed our instructions and kept everything on schedule, sending updates and photos at every visit - which we really appreciated. Mango seemed comfortable and well cared for. We’d happily book Olga again!
We’ve had the pleasure of Thomas looking after our three cats on multiple occasions over the past few months, and every single time he has been absolutely fantastic. Super friendly, super responsible, super accommodating, and absolutely amazing in every way. Our cats also really vibe with him, which is probably the most important part.
Sabrina was absolutely wonderful! Finding her was a true blessing, especially after a bad experience with a previous pet sitter. She was so caring and paid extraordinary attention to detail during every drop-in visit. We will definitely be rebooking with her for all of our future trips!
Janice was absolutely amazing! It was my first time needing a pet sitter and I was a bit nervous but thanks to Janice I was actually able to enjoy my vacation. She is very kind and you can tell she loves animals, she treated my babies as her own and went above and beyond!! I will definitely be using her again in the future. I cannot stress enough how amazing she is.
Jonny was a lifesaver and helped with my cat, Bonnie, who’s suffering from terminal cancer. He’s gentle, kind, and highly reliable. As Bonnie deals with her daily hardships, Jonny’s calm and considerate energy helped her stay calm during medicine time, which was really appreciated. Highly recommend him!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She went above and beyond caring for my two cats! She came to my home twice a day and was incredibly attentive, reliable, and thoughtful. She sent me pictures and updates during every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats seemed very comfortable and happy with her, and she even cleaned up after them and left everything nice and tidy. I truly appreciated how much care and attention she gave them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. I will definitely be booking her again! 🐾💕
This is my second booking with Nicole. I was out of town for 5 days and I felt completely relaxed and without a worry because Nicole was watching my pets. I highly recommend hiring Nicole - she is kind, patient, caring, professional, and just an overall great person!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Brookdale is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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 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.
