“Our dogs have never had a sitter in our home, but we wanted to give it a try, as they are always out of sorts if we pick them up from a kennel. Kelsey gave several pupdates with photos, and we got to come home to 2 very happy boys that probably didn’t even notice we were gone. Hope she’d be willing to sit for them once in awhile in the future.”
“We came home to 4 happy healthy fur babies from our week long vacation. Lots of photos and check ins were sent to ease our mind. Our bed sheets were washed and bed re-made, house stayed clean. There is no doubt I will use Pat again. AMAZING!!”
“Madelyn was great when she watched our dog Cooper when we were on our week long road trip. She was very communicative and we could tell she took great care of Cooper. We definitely will book her again.”
“Emily was prompt, respectful, and communicative. She sent pictures and updates and my dog seemed very comfortable and calm when I returned. I highly recommend Emily and will happily book her again in the future if I need a dog sitter!”
“Amanda was amazing! I was worried our pets wouldn't want us to come home. She was very attentive, timely, did more than asked and was very patient with our crazy bunch. I highly recommend her!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Maiah and would absolutely recommend her. Our beagle can be a bit high-maintenance, but Maiah was so great with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in trustworthy, kind, and capable hands. Maiah was also an excellent communicator--we received regular updates, photos, and quick responses, which made it easy to relax while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Aly is great! She had a four day stray with us and my Lucy absolutely adored her! She gave us frequent updates and was soo sweet and positive! We will book with her again!”
“Keisha was amazing with our 10 year old dog! This was our first time using a sitter and it went so smoothly. We got tons of pictures updates and Keisha left the house in tip top shape. I highly recommend working with her! Best of the best!”
“Beth did a fantastic job! Great communication and very responsive. She successfully got our stubborn dog to go for walks and was very attentive. She left our home spotless. We would definitely have her stay in the future.”
“Lexi was great with my particular and somewhat shy senior dog. We planned drop-ins prior to the full weekend, which worked great for Lexi and my Coco to get to know each other a little. Lexi is very responsive and gave updates. I will feel more comfortable taking trips and time away with Lexi caring for my girl!”
“Rebecca was phenomenal with my little critters! Excellent communication throughout the week and she was able to adjust last minute to needing to give my dog extra TLC and medication. I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Joe was great with our Fifi, he was really a lifesaver! He stayed at our house as our rescue dog can be a little clingy. I received the cutest pictures and was really able to enjoy myself on vacation knowing she was at home!”
“Thank you so much for watching Bowey! We truly appreciate you taking such good care of him! Also it was super helpful when our trip got extended and you were able to watch him a few extra days! We will definitely be in touch for future stays!”
“Molly is the best! She is very patient and caring with our senior dogs. She takes initiative to engage and enrich our pups with lots of fun and play. Of equal, if not greater, importance is her quick thinking when unforeseen events arise. She’s shrewd, highly responsible, and I trust her in an emergency. She is always our first choice. All around, she’s a stellar human and highly capable sitter!”
About: Hi! have two dogs at home that I call my brothers and love them to death. My dad won't let them live with me right now so I always go home to visit and play with them. I have worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, so I do have professional experience with every type of dog. I promise I will show your dog all the love it deserves. I am currently going to school at University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and studying Biology and Zoology. After I finish school I want to transfer to University of Wisconsin-Madsion and receive my Prevet Degree. I want to help animals and care for them in my future in any way I can. I will watch over your dog like their my dog and treat them in the best possible way.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brookfield
While we were gone on a short trip, Angela brought in the mail and or packages and most importantly took care of my cat Buffy. When Angela dropped by to pick up the key, Buffy initially ran from the door but when she heard her voice, Buffy was rubbing her legs and so happy to see her again after the meet & greet. Angela really is a cat whisperer! When we returned from our trip, Buffy was calm, relaxed and all was well in her world. I definitely would recommend Angela to anyone, especially if you have cats! She is a gem.
Seth was great! He jumped right in to watch our boys last minute and was great about sending photos and updates throughout our time away. He was open and communicative during a scheduling snafu, which helped ease our anxiety. We came home to a clean house, which was so unexpected and appreciated, and two very happy dogs. We will definitely rebook with Seth in the future.
Bianca did a fantastic job sitting for our pup and our house while we were away. She kept us updated with several daily messages (with pictures) documenting her activities with the dog. He was clearly in very good hands and the house was too. We would definitely hire Bianca again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookfield on Rover is $44.4 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 1,290 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookfield. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
