“Elissa was a great sitter for our 13 week old pup. She took her time to meet and get comfortable with our puppy. She was in constant communication with us throughout the day and sent us pictures and updates on her behavior. We felt really comfortable leaving her in our house and everything was kept neat and tidy. We would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.”
“Brad was really great with our dog Mooney! He gave daily updates and communicated very efficiently. We felt at ease knowing Brad was taking care of Mooney. Would highly recommend!”
“Erin was reliable, communicative, and made the entire experience stress-free. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care, and it was clear my dog was well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Breanna is a fantastic pet sitter! She watched Sophia and Valentina over the weekend and exceeded all my expectations. She was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated the whole time. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my girls were in such loving hands. Thank you, Breanna!”
“Gordon is so good with Asher, and an all around great guy to care for my ‘canine kid’ (many thanks)! Would certainly recommend him to folks looking for a caregiver for their beloved pet. ❤️”
“Kate spent two weeks with our 17 year old cat, Hunter. For the first four nights she also cared for our 5 year old Labrador retriever, Orli. Kate provided daily updates & great photos. It was obvious from the photos that both Hunter & Orli were comfortable and relaxed with Kate. Kate had no problem giving Hunter his twice daily insulin injections & keeping him on his feeding/meds schedule. It’s a comfort to know your fur babies are well cared for when you are away. We will definitely book Kate again to care for Hunter & Orli!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family and Andrew was absolutely amazing at taking care of our him and making us feel at ease. He was very attentive and picked up on our dog’s personality and needs fast. We enjoyed our daily updates and pictures of our happy dog. We highly recommend him and will definitely use Andrew again!”
“Naidilis was great with our dog Kimbo for the weekend. This was our first time booking with her and we were very impressed. She communicated very well and sent a lot of photos. She really spent time with our dog which was reassuring and took him on walks. Thank you so much! Highly recommended!!!”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, learning to love each breed uniquely. Our pets truly become part of the family and we must treat them as such! I have experience in potty training, crate training and teaching tricks! I am available for daily walks, days and nights. I am available for boarding Monday - Sunday. I am also available on holidays, please just let me know in advance. My dog, Arlo, is a super friendly Mini Aussie who will also keep your pup company. A fenced dog park is available nearby for them to play and run. I will follow feeding, potty, and medication instructions accordingly.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for many different pets. Growing up, I helped raise two family dogs and cats so I’m comfortable with both indoor pets and larger animals. For 13 years I was the proud mom to my Shih Tzu, Bruno, who taught me just how much love, patience, and daily care go into being a great pet parent. Though he recently passed🙏, the experience of caring for him still shapes how I look after every animal in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just making sure they’re comfortable and happy while you’re away, I’m here to give them the kind of care you’d want for them. I currently work remotely so I am able to give your pet all the attention they deserve and need. I can leave any time for walks and vet appointments. I’m a responsible and attentive caregiver who takes pet safety seriously. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and adapting to each pet’s individual needs.
“We recently met and hired Danuta to overnight sit for our pets for several days. Each day we received updates and pictures throughout the day to let us know how our babies were doing. It was so reassuring to know that they were happy and content while we were gone. She took them outside very often to play fetch and for exercise. Our pets bonded with Danuta very fast. Danuta followed all of our instructions and she asked questions if needed. We returned to a very happy house of pets and our house was nice and clean just the way we left it. We will most certainly rebook Danuta and I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs pet care. She is very caring, friendly, and trustworthy. Thank you Danuta! We appreciate all that you did to make sure our pets were happy and active.”
About: I loveee animals. I grew up with many pets from cute little bunnies, turtles, lizards, birds, dogs and everything in between. I’m very caring which will show in everything I do. Your babies will be my babies, I promise :) I currently work full-time as an elementary teacher. I’m available for boarding your babes on weekends, and weekdays after 4pm. Sometimes I’m off on holidays and I would board then as well. We will always have a great time. Your babe will be free to roam my apartment under my supervision, of course. I also have a large yard, but will keep him on a leash. I can also crate him or her if you prefer. Either way, we will have tons of fun together.
About: I’ve cared for animals for years and know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust completely with your furry family members. With a professional background in healthcare, safety, clear attention to detail, and sticking to established routines are second nature to me. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or your pet prefers a calm, quiet environment with steady companionship, I tailor my care to keep them comfortable and happy. You can always count on prompt communication and regular photo updates so you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I work full-time Monday through Friday, so pet care fits seamlessly into afternoons ,evenings, and weekends. My routine is highly predictable, meaning your pets always get on-time, dependable visits. Safety is my top priority. Before every stay, I secure your preferred vet details and 24/7 emergency clinic locations. I practice active environmental awareness on walks, ensure leashes and harnesses are properly fitted, and double-check all home entry points. In an emergency, I remain calm, communicate immediately, and prioritize your pet’s well-being.
“So appreciative of Zaria! She took amazing care of my two pups for a full week, one of which had just started a new medication the day before I left. From our first meet-and-greet, I could tell Zaria is a natural with pets and truly cares. She was incredibly attentive, catered to their individual health needs, and also provided me with the cutest pictures of my pups which made being away from them so much easier. Definitely plan to work with Zaria again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.”
“Cassie was an excellent sitter for our dog Bear! It was a slightly last minute booking and she made time for a meet and greet. She sent pictures throughout the stay. And when our flight was rerouted due to weather, she stayed extra hours beyond what we had booked. She truly went above and beyond. Thanks Cassie!”
“Krystie took wonderful care of our pup while we were gone for week! We’ve never had a house sitter for our dog and were a little reluctant at first. She sent daily updates, photos and videos daily so our nerves were eased by the end of day one. I wholeheartedly recommend Krystie & know both the people and pup in our house look forward to having Krystie back again!”

Gordon watched my three small dogs for three days! This included my one high needs fifteen year old dog and my one year old dog who has a grumpy attitude. Gordon was a pleasure to work with. He was super friendly. He was very attentive. He was super communicative and sent me tons of video and pics of my pups. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend! If you want your pups to be spoiled Gordon is your pick!
This was our first time using Brad to sit at our house with our dog, Winni. Everything went smoothly. He gave us an update every day and sent pictures. The first night he was at our house, our power went out!!!Brad was very capable and calm and assured us that it was no problem. We would definitely use Brad again.
Amara is fantastic - she leads with professionalism, care and communication. She took the time to understand exactly the type of care my dog needed, sent thorough and timely updates and bonded with my dog. Her level of care is exactly what I hoped it would be and I can’t wait to have her sit my dog again!
Naidilis was great with our dog Kimbo for the weekend. This was our first time booking with her and we were very impressed. She communicated very well and sent a lot of photos. She really spent time with our dog which was reassuring and took him on walks. Thank you so much! Highly recommended!!!
Megan is amazing, she came on time, followed instructions, took Athena out at night and in the morning as instructed, not to mention she stayed up all night with Athena🥹 which was very sweet of her, but not necessary. She sent us updated pictures and gave us a nice little summary before she left the house. We definitely will be booking with her again, thank you so much!!!
Jojo was an amazing sitter! We have a 5-year old rescue and started fostering another 5-year old who had been with us for only two weeks, so we were hesitant to reach out to anybody new. Jojo played with them all day, took them out for pup cups, and kept us updated the whole time. We could not be happier and will reach out to Jojo for our future pet sitting needs!
I had a great experience with Elissa! She took excellent care of my dog Jake and kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. Jake looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It was clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
I'm a bit of a hoverparent, so I was really happy with how communicative Jade was the entire time we were away. We got lots of updates on what our little weirdo was doing and how he was responding, complete with pics and videos. He seemed to have had a great time with Jade and we returned home to a totally chill and unbothered doggo.
I wish I could give 100 stars! Kevin is just amazing, he communicates any needs and is so great with all our asks of him. We get plenty of photos where our dogs just look so happy to have him. He walks them daily (we didn’t even ask for that) and sends photos of the cuddles and love they get while we are gone. Our house is always so clean, and he runs the laundry so we don’t have to. He’s literally perfect. Our vacations are just that, vacations, knowing he was here let us enjoy everyday. Thank you so much Kevin!!!
Siara is wonderful! She took excellent care of our 13 year old dog, including giving her daily medications, lots of belly rubs and gentle walks. Siara also took excellent photos and videos of our dog, which was so appreciated during our 5 days away. Siara’s communication was excellent too! And she left our house spotless: We will definitely book her again. We recommend Siara to anyone who needs a responsible dogsitter.
I can’t say enough great things about Lana! From the moment we connected, she was professional, kind, and clearly experienced with caring for pets. She treated my dog like her own making sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and got plenty of love and attention. I especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s not easy leaving your pet behind, but knowing he was in such caring hands made all the difference. When I came back, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely passionate about animals. I will definitely be booking again!
Trisha was terrific! She was very friendly and great with updates and photos. She took very good care of our 12 year old dog. She was very easy to communicate with and was very helpful with household tasks like watering plants, collecting mail and recycling while we were away. Our dog was very relaxed and comfortable with her. Highly recommend! Added bonus she gives great pet massages!
James was wonderful with Brio. Our much loved dog gets anxious and grumpy when we leave him in someone else's care, so we were delighted to see videos of Brio playing in the yard early in our trip. James was just the reassuring presence Brio needed! We were truly appreciative of his care, and look forward to having him back.
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was absolutely wonderful with our French Bulldog — so loving, attentive, and affectionate. Our dog felt safe, happy, and comfortable the entire time we were away, and we felt completely at ease knowing our home and pup were in such good hands. She even came by ahead of time to meet her, and they bonded instantly! Pretty sure our dog already misses her now that we’re back from vacation. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookdale on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 18,936 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookdale. 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 Brookdale 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 Brookdale 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 Brookdale 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 Brookdale. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
