“I had a wonderful experience with Marcela caring for my dog. During our first meeting, my dog was anxious and barked out of caution, but Marcela did everything she could to help her feel calm and at ease. She followed my instructions precisely and carried out everything I asked exactly as requested. She was a calm, composed professional throughout, and her steady demeanor really put both me and my dog at ease. I would highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future!”
“Rosemary spent 6 days taking care of the house and animals. She was very responsive, sent oodles of photos, and was very professional in all our communications. We will definitely ask her to come again. It's such a relief to know you can trust somebody to come to the house rather than stressing the dogs out with time in a loud pet hotel.”
“From our first meeting with Perry, we knew our beloved dog and cat were in great hands. Perry was extremely sweet, gentle and thorough caring for our senior dog and spent time getting to know our shy kitty, Eddie. Perry’s communication is excellent. She sent us lots of pictures and videos. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog and cat were not just walked and fed, but loved on. Our home was kept tidy as well. She is definitely on our favorites list!”
“Carson was wonderful with my 2 cats! He sent pictures for updates and even dealt with a spontaneous hairball ? one of my cats was not happy about Carson but Carson continued to let him get comfortable and finally sent pictures of my cat hanging out on his lap!”
“Lindsay took great care of my dogs! I felt completely comfortable leaving them with her and knew they were in good hands while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I came home to two happy pups. I would be happy to book with her again!”
About: Pets have been a big part of my life, and I know the difference between a pet who is just being watched and one who is truly cared for. I currently share my home with a cat, so daily care is second nature to me: feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and the small routines cats count on.Especially Anxious (i know when your gargoyle wants to lurk-and when the rubs are needed. I’ve had two dogs, and both taught me a lot. My first, Ed, was an 80-pound American Foxhound rescued as a suspected abandoned hunting dog who had never lived indoors. Together we worked through house training, leash manners (no more yanking), a fear of stairs (which involved carrying him up three flights until he stopped being scared), and a distaste for rain. His name was not what he was rescued with, but he was clearly always an Ed. With my second dog, Kovu, I spent a lot of time on socialization with other dogs and on keeping him calm and quiet when left alone. Because of that, I’m patient with nervous, rigid, big dogs, and dogs still learning the rules. I know that consistency and a calm presence go a long way. All Creatures Welcome! Friends have long turned to me for help with their pets, whether furry, scaly, feathered, or creepy-crawly. I’m happy to talk through any pet’s needs, so ask me about yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet before booking. Send me a message and tell me about them! I am a remote worker with a need for reliable wifi more than happy to drop-in, sleepover, or sit for a while with my laptop on your couch. Clear updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away Strict adherence to your pet’s feeding, medication, and walking routines A calm, patient approach tailored to your pet’s personality
“Kelly was absolutely incredible! She watched our two cats and energetic puppy for a whole week and always kept us up to date on how they were doing through pictures and detailed texts. We can definitely tell she made them feel extremely comfortable while their parents were away and gave them lots of love. If you need someone who is responsive, caring, communicative, and can make your pets feel comfortable while you’re away, Kelly is fantastic. She will go above and beyond for you and your pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thanks for everything Kelly, we will absolutely be booking with you again. Migo, Liam, and Maggie already miss you!”
“Leore was fantastic! She was very communicative throughout the stay, handled Sadie’s shenanigans like a pro, and was incredibly accommodating with a last-minute schedule change and Mosley’s new medication. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pups in her care, and I’ll happily book with her again!”
“Elizabeth was phenomenal! She’s an absolute delight! Our pups loved her and she was extremely communicative. The peace of mind she provided was priceless and we will definitely be booking her again.”
About: I have a passion for all animals and 3 years of experience. I have an older dog myself and I am very comfortable working with animals of all ages. I am currently home from college on summer break with a very flexible schedule that can be tailored to any and all needs a pet may have. I'm all about making your pets day. It's already hard enough on them not having their favorite people home so anything I can do to bring them enjoyment and pass the time brings me so much pleasure.
“Kathleen was absolutely amazing with our pup! She made sure to give me updates daily and made sure our pup was well taken care of! Can’t wait to book with her again in the future! 😁”
“Rachel was so wonderful and patient with our four pups and gave so many updates! We were so anxious about leaving them for the first time and she immediately put as at ease. Rachel is the best!”
“Amyre was so good with our pups! They had a great time with her and were well cared for. She did a great job communicating with us. Will definitely be asking her to watch them again!”
“This was our first time using Brooke after we recently moved to Aldie Virginia. Our dogs LOVED her and always looked so happy in the pics she sent us. She communicated, she was punctual and overall she was just very kind. She even left my wife and I a nice note when we got back from our trip and left cookies for our dogs 😊 we will definitely be going to Brooke for all of our daycare needs!”
“Keira was an absolutely phenomenal sitter for our cranky old lady Bug! A ton of great communication and pictures, we never had to worry about how Bug was doing. Even though Bug was extremely difficulty taking her pills, Keira displayed a ton of patience with our pup. I could not recommend her enough!!”
“Brooke is an outstanding caretaker of our dog, Zoey. Brooke is extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviors and is absolutely fantastic with our fear-based reactive dog. She gives us daily updates with photos, giving us peace of mind that our dog is so well cared for. Based upon her feedback, we see and know that Zoey is secure and happy under the care of Brooke. We recommend her highly!”

Maryann was an amazing sitter for us! She was very communicative and we had no doubt that Echo was having a great time and feeling the love while we were gone. Echo is timid with strangers, but Maryann was really gentle and patient with her during our meet and greet and absolutely won her over. We definitely will be reaching out to Maryann again!
As a rover sitter and crazy cat mom, I’m very particular about who cares for my kitties. I am SO happy and glad I found Allison. She was so sweet and did great with my 4 crazy kitties. She took the time to meet them and go over all their care instructions. She had great communication with me during the stay as well. I was able to leave my babies for the weekend stress free, all due to knowing they were in great hands! I was very happy with Allisons care and will be rebooking with her in the future!
Christabelle was great with my babies- they both took to her right away. Communication was great throughout- I got lots of pictures and updates. She followed all instructions and I came home to happy babies and a house that was just as I left it. I will definitely book with her again.
Marcella took amazing care of all of our animals! Our skittish dog warmed up to her the fastest she’s ever warmed up to a new person. We received daily updates and consistent communication before and during our trip. We absolutely recommend Marcella to anyone who needs pet sitting services!
We could not be more grateful for Lindsey! She sat for our pup for four nights in our house and I would not hesitate to book her again. She was able to get my shy and nervous pup to settle and get comfortable quickly. She sent regular photos and daily updates and she left the place cleaner than when she got here. This was our first trip away without our pup and my mind was at ease throughout, knowing that he was in great hands. Thank you so much Lindsey!!
Habiba was great! Very friendly and took good care of my sweet boy while I was away for a long weekend. She gave him all the cuddles he wanted and kept me updated every day with pictures. She also cleaned up after herself, ran the dishwasher and took out the trash. I will definitely book with her again.
Kendall did another great job for us, this time staying two nights and not only taking great care of our dogs, but the house was immaculate upon our return. Great communication throughout and understood our dogs' quirky requirements. Dogs also give a 5 paw rating.
We had an excellent experience and Tyler was amazing. This was the first time we had someone watch our dog in our home and Barley seemed very happy. She is very anxious when we leave and is reactive to thunder storms and dogs. We were gone a week and there were several storms and her walks took her past several dogs; Tyler handled everything extremely professionally and we came home to calm and happy pup (he left us some guidance for those times, which we will implement). He sent pictures and kept us informed on a daily basis. Tyler was very respectful of our house and we returned to it looking better than when we left. I highly recommend Tyler, without reservation. I look forward to having him watch Barley in the future. Thank you, Tyler - we greatly appreciate all you did for Barley; she misses you :).
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Truly Above and Beyond Care We cannot say enough amazing things about Jen! She went completely above and beyond while house sitting for our dogs, Ren and Quin. From the start, she was incredibly thorough, thoughtful, and attentive to detail. She didn’t just follow instructions — she truly cared about our dogs and their experience. She made sure to check them for ticks, kept us updated, and was very proactive in making sure they were safe and happy. What impressed us the most was her flexibility and dedication. When she realized that the dogs needed a few extra visits, she adjusted her schedule without hesitation. That level of attentiveness and willingness to adapt gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. But the biggest sign of how amazing she is? When we came home, Ren and Quin were happy, relaxed… and honestly didn’t even seem that excited to see us because they had such a great time with her! 😂 That says everything. Jen is someone who genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own, and it shows in every interaction. We feel incredibly lucky to have her as our neighbor and our dog sitter. We would 100% trust her again and recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Brookfield is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $81 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 9,764 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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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.
