“Rosemary did a great job house sitting for us for 9 days and taking care of our 2 small dogs. She is very responsive with communication, regularly sent photos, and kept us informed. Upon our return, the dogs were healthy & happy, and the house was neat and clean (with one exception - which was remedied easily enough). We appreciate her help and will call upon her again! Thanks Rosemary!”
“Steph is wonderful. She is considered and extremely polite. She took great care of our two boys and sent us daily updates and pictures. The boys looked happy and relaxed enjoying their time with Steph. She also took care of my hydrangeas that did not like the heat. We will definitely be using her when we are out of town again. Thank you Steph and Rover”
“Kaitlin did a phenomenal job for us during a last minute overnight house sitting with our dog and cat! She was very professional and did everything the right way. She also was sure to send lots of pictures and updates. We appreciated the effort Kaitlin put into this and we felt very comfortable with her sitting in our home. We would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up in a home with multiple pets and have extensive experience caring for animals. Over the years, neighbors and friends have trusted me to care for their pets while they were away. I’m also a four-time foster parent with the Rockingham-Harrisonburg SPCA, where I’ve cared for animals in need and helped prepare them for adoption. I currently work full-time during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends to give your furry family my complete attention and care! I’m available anytime after 5:00 PM on Fridays through Sundays. I’m a true animal lover and will care for your furry family members as if they were my own. I prioritize being present and attentive to their needs, making sure they always feel safe and supported—wherever they are, I’m right there with them.
About: I have had 6 dogs and 4 cats in my life. I’ve trained and taken care of all of them since I was young. I’ve also walked and taken care of family’s and neighbors pets as well. I’m currently on summer break from college so I have plenty of time to take care of pets! Available night and day, whenever needed. I am working on this site part-time over the summer. I do not offer pets to stay at my home but at my clients home I can feed, play with, walk and for extra wash your pup too!
“I am so appreciative of having Lorene as my dog sitter for our recent vacation. She kept us updated with a daily report, added some cute pictures, and learned more of the dogs’ quirks making it a great fit. We knew we could travel without any worries because she took great care of my boys. They loved hanging out with her and Cash even took on the role of “work supervisor”. Would highly recommend Lorene for any of your dog needs.”
“Vinnie did a great job! He took care of my senior pup over the weekend while we were out of town. He dropped in 3 times a day, fed, and gave my boy his supplements/medication. Vinnie even hung around and kept my boy company after he ate, waiting for him to digest his food and then took him out again. A + service!”
“Allegra constantly exceeds expectations and alleviates any anxieties I have about leaving my dogs for several days at a time. She is responsive and great with the dogs and house. I'll never book another dog sitter if Allegra is available!”
“Our dog was so excited to meet Alex for the first time that he quivered all over! We knew it was a match. Since Bear is 100+ lbs, we needed someone who is strong and can command respect. Alex is that person, and he does his job with love. He sent us daily communications and photos about walks, grooming, feeding, etc. Bear was in good hands. We came home to a happy dog and a clean home. Actually, I think Bear is missing Alex today. We will definitely call on him again!”
“Colleen did a great job keeping my timid dog going strong while we were away. And my cat just loved her too! Leaving one's furbabies is very stressful but now I feel comfortable to travel again if Colleen is available for my babies. Thank you so much!!!”
“Katherine did a great job communicating with me and taking care of my dog, Luray! It was the first time I have used Rover for an overnight stay and it was a great experience because of Katherine!”
“Andrea was incredible and we would absolutely recommend her! She looked after our two pups Doug and Goomba and we were assured throughout our trip that they were in good hands. She gave us very frequent updates and pictures and was extremely responsive. She was incredibly kind both when we met and via text, and I know she was just as great with our dogs. Thank you so much Andrea!!”
“Kim did such a great job with our dog! She is an excellent communicator, and was very kind and understanding of our dog’s quirks related to his separation anxiety. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I am a local college student/lifelong pet owner, and frequently care for my friends and families pets. I also volunteered at a veterinary hospital, where I walked and cared for dogs and cats staying in the boarding area (walking dogs, feeding pets, refreshing water and litter). I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to provide attentive, loving care and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while ensuring your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away! I am a local college student with plenty of time between and after classes to pet sit. My schedule is generally very flexible week to week. I do my best to keep their routine consistent and follow your instructions to ensure that they remain comfortable, whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with them. I'll also send updates and photos so you can feel confident that they are in good hands.
“Hannah is amazing! She’s helped with walks, drop-ins & week long stay! Reliable in every way, sending daily updates & photos. My puppy absolutely adores her. Her care and attention gives me so much ease.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Brookfield is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brookfield
Colleen took great care of Lucky. She communicated with us everyday with pictures that were just wonderful. She put our worries at ease and allowed us to really focus on our vacation. Colleen left our home in immaculate condition and communicated with us on the day we arrived back home. We would love to have Colleen watch Lucky in the future again. Wonderful experience!!
Lindsey is amazing!! She is so nice and took great care of our dog. She sent so many photo and video updates and our dog looked happy! She sent updates about bathroom breaks and food too. I also appreciate that she has experience with epileptic dogs so we felt comfortable leaving ours in her care. We already have her booked for another round of overnight sittings!!
Abbey did a great job house sitting for us. My dog is epileptic, so leaving her can be a bit stressful, but she took fantastic care of her and managed her medication perfectly. She sent regular pictures and updates and also left my home exactly as she found it. Stax was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were gone. I'm happy to recommend Abbey to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive siitter, and I wont hesitate to book with her again.
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 for House Sitting in Brookfield on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 9,989 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 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.
