“Gregory is absolutely great with my pup. Spent lots of time to give my boy cuddles, took him to his play group and reliable. I have rebooked him a couple times since he's been great.”
“Brittany is AMAZING! We are so happy to have found her to care for my fur baby. She kept us at ease with constant updates and photos all while giving the best care to our Carlucci! She played with him, he bonded with her and I have to say my boy found himself a new bestie! Cats are finicky right? Well he warmed up to her as we seen in all the great photos and updates she sent us. I was so worried he would be stressed or sad. He was living his best life with Brittany. She followed all of his care instructions and left us without a single worry. She kept our home so clean in fact cleaner than when I left I feel. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for the perfect companion/sitter for their fur baby. We will definitely be calling upon Brittany in the near future.”
“I cannot say thank you enough! Mason was a great sitter for our 2 fur babies. Very attentive and played with them extensively. They had a very good nights sleep. Max suffers from separation anxiety but with Mason he barely knew we were gone. We received updates and pictures throughout the night. So again thank you and will definitely recommend Mason for anyone looking for a kind, caring and attentive sitter.”
“We’re so glad Anthony was able to stay with our little dog while we were out of town! He kept us updated the entire time and it was easy to relax on our vacation knowing Sunny was in great hands.”
“Kathryn was awesome and very professional. She kept me updated throughout the day and made me feel very much at ease. Katie took excellent care of my dog (Ruben). I would highly recommend Kathryn!”
“Leah stayed with my 100lb pittie over the weekend and she was absolutely a delight to work with. She sent us multiple updates and pictures a day, and took our guy on lots of walks which we appreciate so much! We came home to a clean house and happy pup! We will definitely be using Leah again!”
“Kiara did a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat last weekend, keeping them on a good feeding and walking schedule, hanging out with them, and providing medicine to my cat. She was responsive in a very timely manner, keeping me posted on how things were going throughout the weekend, with texts ad photos. My house was in perfect shape when I got home and my dog and cat were happy -- the best evidence that they had been well cared for and completely at ease with their sitter. Thanks, Kiara!!”
“Jillian went above and beyond for our dogs during her housesitting visit. She sends tons of photos, spends lots of time with the dogs during overnights, and goes out of her way to make sure they have plenty of treats. We all adore Jillian!”
“This was the first time we ever used the service for a week while we were away for vacation. From the first meeting with Alexis we knew Charlie would be in great hands. He had taken to her instantly and it was obvious her love for dogs. She kept us well informed throughout the week with text messages and plenty of pictures. Alexis was very respectful of our home and we returned to it as when we left it. It was such peace of mind knowing that Charlie was able to stay in his comfortable environment and keep his familiar schedule while we were away. Alexis was mindful and wanted to make sure Charlie kept to his familiar daily routine. She was an absolute pleasure to have worked with and we have no regrets. We will most definitely use her again in our next need . We would highly recommend her to anyone needed dog sitting. Thank you Alexis for taking such good care of Charlie!! The experience was more than we expected!!”
“Jacob was AMAZING with our four...challenging pets (two cats, two dogs). His communication with us was clear and consistent throughout our entire trip, he followed all of our instructions exactly as we asked, and our animals (and house!) were all well taken care of. I can't recommend Jacob enough!”
“James did an amazing job taking care of my two very energetic dogs. He went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for as best as possible and kept me updated the entire week. I could not recommend James enough he made me time away stress free, thanks again James!”
“I’m a bit of a worrier when it comes to leaving my dog and house; but Christina was the best house and dog sitter I could have asked for. She was extremely professional and easy to work with. She was highly communicative and made it very easy to relax while on vacation. She even endured a winter blizzard while house sitting and offered to stay at the house in the event our flight was delayed or canceled. Our giant Bernese mountain dog can sometimes be a handful (hence why he’s not in a doggie hotel), but again, Christina was amazing with him. It is clear that she genuinely enjoys her job and working with pets. I now have zero worry for the next time we travel because Christina is amazing.”
“Amazing! Aside from the adorable videos that Natalie shared during her two night stay with my dog Nola, she absolutely left the house beautiful!! Such a relief after a long trip. And Nola was so happy and totally herself when I got home, so she clearly enjoyed being able to stay in her normal environment and hang out with someone who gave her all of the attention that she craves! I will ABSOLUTELY be using Natalie for my future overnight and dog walk needs!!”
“Stella had an extended stay with our pup and she was so wonderful at making sure our baby felt comfortable while we were gone. It was our first time being away so we were understandably anxious about how Philomena would do but Stella sent us loads of updates, photos and videos. Our pup had a wonderful staycation all thanks to her!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brooklawn
I've had Peter petsit for a year or two now, and he's fantastic. He's responsive, timely, trustworthy, and communicative. You can tell he really cares about the animals and treats them like family. Peter goes above and beyond, and he's helped us with a crisis or two while we were out of town. He did really well with my reactive dog (who loved him despite being aloof with most people) as well as my new puppy. Peter is my go-to for pet care and once you hire him, I'm sure he'll be yours too!
Felicia was awesome with our dogs Sammy & Mojo. She stayed at our house each day from 4:40 - 8:30 pm to keep our dogs company. She played ball with Sam and took lots of pictures which assured us that they were in good hands. Felicia also brought in the mail and fed the birds. I highly recommend her.
Krystal was an amazing house and cat sitter for us! She was available on short notice and during the Holidays which was such a relief! She was respectful of our home and more importantly took great care of our kitties and sent us periodic photos and updates! Great communication and a lovely person! Highly recommend Krystal!
Mary did a good job with our pets last week. Our only concern is Casey was left for longer than we requested in our notes to her. We don’t know that for sure of course but that’s something that can be asked of Mary. If we were to use her in the future we need-to be assured that they,especially Casey would not be left for longer than the six hours. All in all everything was fine and we appreciate the care they received.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brooklawn on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,355 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brooklawn. 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 Brooklawn 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 Brooklawn 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 Brooklawn 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
