“Duncan did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and our home during his stay. He kept us up to date with pictures and messages. He went above and beyond to help with household tasks (watering garden) and kept our home tidy. He was very professional and we will plan to use him for future dog sitting needs. I highly recommend Duncan if you are looking for an in home dog sitter.”
“Klaudia was a great pet sitter! She sent pictures and updates about our pup each day, which was really nice. She was easy to communicate with and we would absolutely book her again.”
“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”
“Brandon was fantastic. He is a great communicator and clearly gave my dogs lots of love and attention while we were away. I highly recommend Brandon for your pet care needs!”
“Xena was great! We just moved into town and she made it so easy and stress free to know our fur kiddo was well taken care of when going out of town. She was forgiving of the chaos of our house due to the unpacking and was able to support Levi as a senior. Will be booking again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Leah was amazing! She was so sweet and loving with my Lily, gave her lots of playtime and cuddles. It was my first time leaving my 12 week puppy with someone else, so I was nervous of course but Leah made me feel so comfortable and sent lots of photos and videos throughout the day so I felt at peace! Leah also has a 9 month old puppy so it was so helpful to chat with her about her experiences and discuss puppyhood, she had lots of tips for me. Would definitely recommend Leah, she is such a thoughtful and responsible dog sitter!”
“Justin did a wonderful job caring for Queen and Isaiah! He sent daily updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. The dogs looked happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable snuggling with him—their favorite activity. We returned home to two happy pets and would gladly book Justin again. Highly recommend!”
“Michele stayed with our dogs for a week and took such great care of them (and our home!). She is caring, thoughtful, and thorough. We will definitely hire her again in the future. Highly recommended for your pet sitting needs!”
“Charlie house sat for us for a week. He took amazing care of our cat and dog. Charlie was very professional and an excellent communicator. When we got home, the pets were happy and the house was immaculate. I highly recommend Charlie for pet sitting. We'll be using his services again!”
“Malek did a great job letting Gimli adjust to a new human at his own pace. He asked for guidance when needed, to help Gimli build trust in him. Gimli greeted him happily when he returned to pick up his things, so I know Gimli feels comfortable. As the owner of a sensitive, intelligent and active dog this was just what I was looking for. Thank you, Malek!”
“If Manju is available, book her! She was our house sitter and pet sitter for 17 days and we could not have been happier. She sent pictures and videos of our pets everyday and gave updates daily. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and is excited to spend time with them. I am already looking for ways to book her again!”
“Ryan did an amazing job taking care of our Ricki in our house while we were away. She constantly communicated with us and sent pictures. She also did an excellent job managing Ricki's distrust of strangers. She also helped us by feeding our fish, and collecting our mail. Overall and excellent job, I will definitely use her services”
“Tabatha was absolutely perfect!!!! She was prompt for the arrival time, she kept us updated with photos and messages. We felt very relaxed knowing our babies were in good hands!”
About: What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized, compassionate care for every dog I meet. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, including helping reinforce basic training, maintaining consistent routines, and adapting care to different energy levels and mobility needs. Whether it's encouraging good leash manners, practicing basic commands with young dogs, or providing patient, gentle care for older pets, I focus on creating a positive and stress-free experience. I believe in clear communication, reliability, and treating every dog as if they were my own. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is getting attentive, dependable care from someone who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I currently offer dog care services during evenings and weekends, making me a great option for busy professionals, families, or anyone who needs dependable care outside of regular business hours. I'm available for evening walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays (if applicable), and weekend pet sitting. I strive to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible to ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and exercise they need. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow your pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise to help your pet feel happy and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat your home with the utmost respect, keep everything clean and tidy, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet stays in my home, they'll receive a welcoming, supervised environment with lots of love, enrichment, and individualized care to help them feel right at home.
“Tyler stayed at our house for 5 days with our dog and she was as happy as she’s ever been when we returned. Tyler is very reliable, responsive, and respectful. Would get my strong recommendation for anybody’s dog care needs!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life, including my own 10 year old goldendoodle and 6 year old bernedoodle, so I understand different breeds, energy levels, and needs. I have plenty of experience walking and sitting for other people’s dogs too, from high energy pups to laid back seniors. I treat every dog like my own. Im reliable, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. I recently graduated from Towson University and I’m currently working toward joining the electrician’s union, so my schedule has plenty of flexibility right now. I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and dog sitting at your home throughout the week, including weekends. As my career path progresses I’ll keep my availability updated, but for now I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. I have a fully fenced yard, which gives dogs plenty of safe space to run and play. My two are great with other dogs and help new visitors feel comfortable right away. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means separate feeding, extra downtime, or just close supervision.

Kelsey stayed with my three dogs for five days at my house and was super responsible each day. She send me pictures and updates multiples times every day and I could see my dogs are healthy and happy with her. Kelly was collecting my mail and keeping my house clean and organised. I was happy to return home and see that everything is in perfect condition. I will be happy to work with Kelsey in the future.
I cannot say enough good things about Alexandra! She was on time every time, gave extra time and attention, and really went the extra mile for my three dogs. She was an excellent communicator when my dog didn’t want to take his meds and problem solved through it. Would 100% hire her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookeville 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 11,406 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookeville. 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 Brookeville 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 Brookeville 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 Brookeville 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.

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.
