“Katalina was great while watching our dog and cat! She was responsive and left our home spotless! Thank you for helping us get away for a few days… not easy to do with 3 kiddos these days. It was such a relief to not have to worry about the animals. I would def recommend her!”
“Jennifer did an outstanding job taking care of Ryder this weekend! Anyone familiar with Vizslas knows they can be high-maintenance and need plenty of attention, and Ryder is certainly no exception. Jennifer went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for, even accommodating his late-night potty breaks. She was patient, attentive, and incredibly accommodating throughout the weekend. It was great to see and hear all the updates that she provided and to know Ryder was in such good hands while we were away. We really appreciate everything she did and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!”
“Diane was so kind and wonderful with our senior dog. She made such an effort to get to know us and our dog’s needs. She communicated clearly throughout her short stay. We can’t wait to book her again!”
“Sage was great! I was very nervous using a new sitter for this trip. We were leaving the country and had an elderly cat going through some health issues. Sage was willing to do all the things needed to help our cat, in addition to the regular tasks of care for her, our dog and a couple of little potatoes. She was reliable and very communicative during her stay. Left the house in order. Definitely will use her again!”
“Sean was an absolute treasure to our girl, Luna. He was very responsive from the get-go and made sure that all of our accommodations were met. I’m not sure that we will ever book with anybody else as Luna adored Sean when we returned. I would give Sean 100/10 stars if I could. I highly recommend entrusting him.”
About: I’ve had 40 years experience caring for my own dogs (3), a cat and parakeets. My current pets consist of an adopted 2 year old Labrador/Retriever mix and a red-eared turtle, that my son graciously brought home from a junior year field trip, 10 years ago. I have cared for pets not of my own, along with house sitting that included dogs, finches, parakeets and an African Grey parrot. Familiar with dog reactivity and leash pulling. Oral medication can also be administered. Currently working full-time as a teacher. I’m available before 8:30am and after 5:00pm for individual walks and/or house sitting. Weekends open for house sitting or individual walks. Following a routine is apart of my teacher life, so following your fur baby’s won’t be a problem. Daily reports with photos/videos can easily be arranged.
About: I’ve worked as a full time nanny for the past 6 years and have been responsible for walking and caring for their pets too, I also have my own senior doggie, a 13 year old schnauzer and have always loved caring for kiddos and their animal friends. I currently work as a nanny Monday- Friday, but only 4 hours per day because I am only responsible for school drop offs and pick ups, so a couple hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon and I have the rest of the day available for walks and pet sitting! I can crate your dog if needed and provide any medication necessary for your pets, I love doing long walks and can stick to any schedule necessary whether that be feeding time or potty time. I am always punctual and I feel very passionate about making your pets feel safe and well taken care of.
“Gaby was amazing! Truly an incredible dog sitter, and I’ll be reaching out to her again for her services in the future. She took great care of my three dogs one of which is over 17. They clearly had a great time with her and she sent me frequent updates, pictures and even video clips. They seemed less impressed with me when I came home, which I saw as a testament to how much they enjoyed Gaby‘s company. She also took excellent care of my home. Gaby’s responsiveness and communication did wonders to remove the added stress from a last minute business trip.”
“Lauren was amazing! She sent tons of pictures! When our girls made a mess after playing in the mud, she went out of her way to clean thoroughly. We are so grateful for her and will definitely hire her for future jobs! Thank you Lauren for taking such good care of our babies!”
About: Hi! My name is Chris, and I’ve spent over 10 years professionally working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My background includes dog daycare, boarding, overnight care, kennel management, administering medications, caring for senior dogs, supervising large playgroups, and professional dog training. While I currently work as a Keyholder in retail management, my passion has always been caring for animals, and I love being able to spend my free time doing what I enjoy most. One thing that sets me apart is my ability to understand canine body language and recognize when a dog is stressed, excited, nervous, or simply wants space. Every dog is different, and I take the time to build trust and provide care that matches their individual personality and needs. Although I’m not actively teaching training classes anymore, I still use the skills I’ve learned over the years to reinforce good manners, encourage positive behaviors, and create a calm, structured environment for the dogs in my care. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, a senior who needs extra patience, or just wants someone to play, cuddle, and keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and receiving the same care I’d give my own family. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care has always been a part of my life, even after transitioning into retail management. I work full-time as a Keyholder, but I schedule my Rover services around my work so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a great way for me to stay connected to a field I’ve been passionate about for over 10 years. Outside of work, I spend time with my own pets and make sure they receive the same love and attention I give every animal in my care. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, overnight stay, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care while keeping you updated every step of the way. I believe every pet deserves care that’s tailored to their individual needs and routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their schedule as consistent as possible, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. I know routines help pets feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I always treat my clients’ homes with the same respect I would expect someone to treat mine. I’ll clean up after your pet, keep food and water areas tidy, wipe muddy paws when needed, and make sure everything is secure before I leave. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well. If pets are staying in my home, they’ll have a safe, clean, and calm environment where they’re treated like family. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and downtime based on their personality and energy level. My priority is always your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. With over 10 years of professional experience working with dogs and cats, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies, kittens, seniors, and those who require medication or extra patience.
“Ashlee is the absolute best!! We try to work with her every time we leave town. She takes such good care of our dog, is super responsive and sends lots of pictures 😊 I can’t say enough good things about her !”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoyed helping take care of family and friends’ pets. I’m gentle, responsible, and always treat every pet like my own!! Whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply giving them attention, I always make sure they feel comfortable and loved💗 I’m currently not working full-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. I’m happy to care for pets during the day or evening, depending on your needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll be there to help!! I provide a calm and safe environment with lots of love and attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, making sure each pet feels secure and cared for. I’m happy to care for pets in your home or mine, depending on what’s best for your furry friend.
“Eddie was fantastic with our two huskies! He kept in regular contact with us while we were away, providing detailed updates on how our dogs were doing. We truly appreciated his communication and the way he cared for our fur babies. Eddie also respected our home, leaving it just as we had left it. It was as if no one had been there at all! Thanks so much Eddie for loving our babies.”

We really appreciate everything she did and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
Stephanie was very nice and both dogs liked her. She came to our hotel to watch the dogs and took them out for walks. She sent pictures to us several times which my wife really liked. Upon our arrival back as she was leaving the dogs thought they were going with her for a moment which showed how well she had treated them.
We had a wonderful experience with Dana! She took fantastic care of Kona during her 5-night stay, strictly keeping up with all regular feedings and walk schedules. Communication was clear and prompt throughout the booking, and she took wonderful care of our home while we were away. Highly recommend Dana, and we will absolutely book her again!
I cannot say enough good about Gena. She was wonderful with my kids, kept in touch regularly and just all around great. The house was, dare I say, cleaner when I returned than when I left. My 70+@ collie mix and normally vocal cat were very chill when I walked in the door. Definitely glad to see me but very relaxed and comfortable. I couldn’t ask for a better house/pet sitter. Will definitly check with Gena for all my future overnights away.
Isabel was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, Hawk and Trigger! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We received great updates and could tell that she genuinely cared about them. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would highly recommend Isabel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. We will definitely be using her again!
Max was an outstanding pet sitter, and I recommend him without hesitation. I was traveling internationally for over two weeks, so it was incredibly important to find someone I could trust with both my home and my senior dog, Daisy. Max exceeded every expectation. He sent thoughtful updates and photos every day, making it easy to relax and enjoy my trip knowing Daisy was happy and well cared for. It was obvious from his messages that he genuinely enjoyed spending time with her, and it was equally clear that Daisy had become very attached to him. As a pet owner, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your dog is not just being cared for, but truly loved. Max also took excellent care of my home. He brought in the mail, watered my indoor and outdoor plants, kept everything neat and tidy, and was always easy to communicate with. When I returned home, Daisy was happy, healthy, and clearly comfortable after spending time with him. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will absolutely book Max again, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, communicative, and genuinely caring pet sitter.
The weekend of my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding, Angelina provided care to their cat as well as my three cats, staying overnight for two nights at my home. Prior to that weekend, she came over to meet the cats and myself and run through their daily care routine. Even my shy cat Brody seemed curious about her. Wedding weekend, she was great at providing updates through text and photos throughout her stay, and I appreciated her attention to cleaning up their litter boxes and feeding mats one more time before she left. She has a gift for working with animals and is trustworthy and easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Brookfield is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $52 per night. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 7,978 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookfield. 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 Brookfield 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 Brookfield 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 Brookfield 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 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookfield. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
