“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.”
“Fatima was amazing to work with. I booked her on short notice before the holiday when my original plans fell through. She offered and made it a priority to come do a meet & greet on days notice. I’m always a little nervous when using a new sitter especially when they stay at mine, but my mind was at ease immediately when I met her. I could tell she has a big heart and really cares for animals. She followed all instructions and she went above and beyond spending time with Diesel doing his favorite activities (walks, playing fetch, swimming, etc.). She was incredibly communicative and sent a lot of pictures and videos which was much appreciated. As a former Rover sitter and a frequent user of Rover’s services, I can confidently say that Fatima is one of the best sitters I’ve come across. I will definitely be using her in the future and have already recommended her to others looking for sitters. Thank you Fatima!!!”
About: From week long in-home stays to quick 15 minute walks, I have done it all! I started occasional dog walking in 8th grade and i’ve continued pet care for 9 years. I have experience with high energy and large dogs like Belgian Malinois to lower energy senior dogs that just need companionship. I can truly cater to each dog and what they need. I grew up with dogs and currently have two, a rottweiler and a lab. I currently work two jobs but they are usually pretty spread out time wise. I work in the morning from 7:30 to 2:00pm and two nights a week from 7:00pm to 12:00 am. I have weekends free so plenty of time for visiting! I will not be able to offer any in home care as I have two dogs at home that do not enjoy the company of others.
“Stepen and Amelie took great care of our 1 year old dog and our home. They took our dog on multiple walks, played with him and made sure he was comfortable. They were great about keeping us up to date with pictures, videos and messages about how our dog was doing. We came home to a detailed list of what our dog did each day, how much he ate, when he used the bathroom and when he slept. We were very impressed and would recommend Stephen and Amelie.”
“Maiah did a terrific job taking care of my dog. She gave us daily updates and photos, left the house clean and even stayed with my dog so she didn’t get lonely! Amazing!”
“This was my first time leaving our puppy Fritz and first time using Rover. I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Adrienne! I appreciated the daily check ins and pics/videos and I could tell that Fritz was happy and content and well cared for. I would recommend Adrienne and will use her again the next time we go out of town without the pup.”
“Kandice took excellent care of sarge. She also took him in her truck which he loves. Kandice was very conscious of his exercise and didn't just sit around waiting for me to return.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 3 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.
“Jeremy was amazing. He was prompt, insanely responsive, and went above and beyond when we forgot to leave our son’s soccer stuff out for pick up. He even ran to purchase new shin guards when he couldn’t find them for us. This man is truly amazing and we appreciate him watching our three puppies. Our shepherd is usually super depressed when we are away and he looks so happy in all the pictures we received.”
“Catilyn was an amazing sitter. Will for sure utilize her services again!! I needed someone last minute due to a cancellation and Catilyn responded to my message promptly, was able to do a meet and greet same day, and housesit for me that weekend. She is polite, professional, wonderful!!! I can home to a washed and made spare bed, home in great order, and happy pup!!!”
“Tegra made me feel comfortable with leaving my senior pup. She provided photos and communicated with me when the many times I reached out to check in on Tedi. I came home to a happy pup!”
“Tara is exceptional when it comes to watching your fur babies! She watched our dog (Marley) while on vacation for a week. She provided plenty of updates with pictures that helped in knowing Marley was doing well. I would highly recommend Tara if you are in need of a pet sitter.”
“This is our first time using Rover and I am so glad that Lily was the one to watch Rosie. She did a great job keeping us updated, sending pictures and it looks like she and Rosie had a blast. She even did a little training for us. I highly recommend Lily and we will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Molly absolutely crushed it- I can’t say enough good things. Our dogs have huge personalities, some bizarre behaviors, and special needs (and so does our weird old rental house) and she handled all of it with aplomb. Our resident canine klutz tore his paw pad the night before we left, and even though we totally sprung this development on Molly at the last minute, pro that she is, she jumped in and changed his dressings, kept the area clean, AND kept the dog calm to prevent further injury. He was basically fully healed upon our return. Thanks, Molly! We will be back if you’ll have us- with fewer surprises next time, we hope!”
“Aimee was great. She made sure the pups were loved the entire time and these two bulldogs want to be with people. Aimee kept the pups happy the entire time. Aimee communicated great and was very responsive if I checked in on things myself. I definitely recommend Aimee...as long as it isn't during a time where I would love her to stay with my pups, lol.”
About: I am going through a divorce and want to stay busy and find joy. I love dogs and have had them my whole life. I recently lost my dogs to old age and need a good dog fix in my life. I dog sit/walk for friends and family all the time. I do work full time, so please contact for additional days/times needed. I work full time and going through a divorce. I am looking to stay busy with activities that I enjoy, and dogs make me extra happy! I can easily assist with any doggy needs. I am a capable dog sitter, and any special requests from the owners are fine for me.
“Terri was great with our dog Bella! Bella is a rescue dog & she takes time getting to know new people & situations. Terri was extremely patient & loving with Bella. Terri also kept me up- to-date with how Bella was doing & sent photos & reassured me that Bella was doing good. We were extremely pleased with Terri’s services & very fortunate to have her look after our dog. We highly recommend Terri!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, I adore them and I'm always excited when I have the opportunity to meet and care for a new fury friend. I have 1 amazing, clean and well-behaved dog-baby. She’s sweet and high energy but doesn’t have playmates so this platform allows me to help out other doggy-parents and gives my dog an opportunity to meet new furry-friends. When your pup is in my care you can trust that they'll be treated with the utmost love, care and respect. My home is always clean and there is a dog park nearby. I respond quickly to requests and provide you with as many or little updates as you'd like while your dog is in my care. If there is a particular schedule/regimen your dog follows, please let me know and I'm happy to accommodate that. I welcome last minute requests and will do my best to help if I can. I work full-time from the comfort of my home so I have the flexibility to keep watch over your dog and tend to their needs. My home is always clean and sanitized. I have a dog who has updated shots and in excellent health. When your dog is with me, I take extra care to make sure they are safe. I follow all instructions given by you regarding food, walks etc. and if checking into your home, your privacy will be respected and your home will be secured when entering and exiting the property. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide attentive care for your pup, including walks, playtime, and meeting any special needs they may have. Your pet’s comfort and happiness will always be my priority. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, playtime, and love. In your home, I ensure pets feel at ease, follow their routine, and maintain a secure and nurturing atmosphere.

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.

FAQs for House Sitting - Brookfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Brookfield is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $86 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 1,236 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:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
