“Julie has been great whenever she has done drop ins with my cat Milo. She is super communicative, responsive and flexible. It’s given me peace of mind that Milo is okay when I am traveling. Highly recommend her.”
“Alissa was wonderful! I wasn’t worried about Buster at all while I was away because of her detailed reports and photos from each visit. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Anastasia was fantastic! She went out of her way to make sure our little scaredy cat Jake was super comfortable, and even went back to double-check on his comfort. She also was very communicative and prompt. And even brought in our mail! We will definitely be asking her for her services again! She’s wonderful!”
“Was incredibly attuned to my lil anxious Winston, provided consistent helpful feedback & was just overall a perfect pet sitter for my baby boy! I was nervous using rover for the first time, and Rachel exceeded my expectations & went above and beyond. Will be working with her again!”
“Alexandra was so great with Maker! She always included pictures from her visits and answered quickly when I messaged her for any reason. She was great! Occasionally a little late with scheduled times but that doesn't bother Maker at all so she was perfect for us!”
“Yaxin did a great job taking care of my cat. She is punctual and gives my cat some extra attention so he isn’t lonely while I am away. She is also extremely responsive.”
“As always, Nathan was fantastic and took amazing care of my little Frenchie! I love knowing that I can leave town and someone who actually loves my dog is going to be taking care of him. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello and thank you for visiting my page! I am a lover of all animals, and I have had both cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve had my cat, Burt Macklin (if you’re a fan of Parks and Rec) for over five years and he is my favorite creature! I have no problem taking care of cats of all sizes and am comfortable administering oral medication. I currently can’t own a dog in my apartment, so I love walking and taking care of dogs to get my fix. I can take care of dogs of all sizes and ages, and I’ll be sure to ask about their walking behaviors and any habits/training they’re working on. I am able to do overnight stays when needed and aim to give your house lion and/or pooch the best care while their human(s) are away. I am a very positive and optimistic person, so I will always bring an upbeat attitude to all my dog walks. I am an open book and can answer any questions as needed. Hope to meet you and your fur child! I’m currently working part-time and have lots of flexibility during the week and on weekends. I also have a car and am able to travel with your pet if needed. I take it very seriously when someone trusts me to take care of their pet, whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting. I am always considerate of other people’s spaces and treat both your home and your beloved support creatures like my own!
“Taylor did a great job watching our cat over the weekend. She sent detailed updates and made sure our cat was comfortable--I could tell he was well taken care of when I returned. Would definitely recommend Taylor to watch your pet!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with dogs, birds, and fish, so caring for pets has always felt natural to me. Over the years, I’ve regularly pet sat for friends and family, caring for both cats and dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well taken care of. Some of the responsibilities I’ve had before include administering medicine, specific dietary requirements, and playing or walking pets. I have always loved animals and will give your pet the care and attention they deserve. I know how important consistency is, and I will do my best to make each pet feel at ease. I also have a reliable car, so I’m able to travel to your home and accommodate different schedules when needed. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I treat each one with the same patience, kindness, and kindness you would. Currently my schedule is flexible so I can work with clients that may need flexibility and can also fit in time to play/walk pets as well. I can travel to client’s places and do visits as well as stay at a clients residence. In addition I have cared for pets that need temperature and time sensitive medication and for pets with dietary restrictions and other specific accommodations. I have worked with dogs of all sizes as well and have experience with cats. If you have other pets other than cats or dogs I am willing to accommodate that as well potentially.
“Kayla did a great job with my dog, Archie! She is professional, courteous and follows directions. I’m always worried to leave Archie with sitters, as he needs extra guidance on walks. but Kayla handled him like she had been watching him for years. I look forward to hiring her again!”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Brookline Village is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Brookline Village
I booked Claire while traveling out of state to care for my cat, Zelish, and she was exceptional. Claire was incredibly receptive to Zelish’s care instructions, paying close attention to specific details like water quality and regulating the apartment temperature during a severe heat wave. She even thoughtfully offered to water my plants, though it wasn't needed because I thoroughly watered before my departure. Her frequent photo updates gave me complete peace of mind while away. I am extremely grateful for her attentive care and would highly recommend booking with her again.
Ann-Marie was so wonderful I can’t say enough good things. If anyone knows me they know my cat is my whole world, so it takes a lot for me to trust someone with her. Ann-Marie was so attentive, kind, and understanding and gave daily updates with photos to really put my mind at ease. I would book with her again in a heartbeat!
Nicole was our first experience with Rover. We were going on a fairly long vacation and couldn’t take our cat with us, so needless to say, we were a little nervous about leaving her behind. We booked Nicole for nine visits, and she was fantastic. She always showed up when she said she would, did everything we had asked, and sent us detailed updates after every visit. She played with our cat, groomed her when needed, replenished her water bowls, and cleaned the litter box. Nicole is an extremely reliable and dependable pet sitter—no weirdness, no drama, just someone you can trust to show up and take good care of your pet. We know pet sitting is only a temporary, part-time job for Nicole as she finishes college and prepares to move away from Boston, but the maturity, trustworthiness, reliability, and sense of responsibility she showed us will serve her well wherever her career takes her next. We are extremely grateful to Nicole for taking such good care of our cat and giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her.
Highly recommend Marie! This was our first time using Rover and leaving our cat alone since adopting him and we felt so comfortable the entire time. She was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to handle our cat’s complex feeding routine, give him cuddles and play time, and take care of the litter box and water. Thank you so much Marie!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Brookline Village on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,997 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Brookline Village. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
