“Sarah stayed at our home with our senior dog for an extended weekend and she did an amazing job with our old guy. She sent picture updates and we were confident that he was being well taken care of and enjoying his time with her. Sarah followed our instructions perfectly and left our place exactly how she found it. She is welcome back any time! Thank you Sarah!!”
“Kelly did a wonderful job caring for our pup, Bodie, while we were traveling for a long weekend. We loved the pictures she sent to let us know that Bodie was living his best life! Thank you so much for taking such great care of Bodie <3”
“Katherine was great! She was communicative and provided constant updates on Harley while I was away. She took good care of her and I could tell she was comfortable. I would highly recommend.”
“Jenna took such good care of our senior dog. She left updates on her sore paw and double checked if anything special should be done to help. Her daily+ updates and photos helped us rest easy on vacation. Highly recommended!”
“Ashley was an excellent house/dog sitter! Our pup was clearly well taken care of, she spent lots of time playing and walking him. We appreciated the routine updates and she left the house clean and secured. Glad to know we can work with her again!”
“Alexandra took great care of our puppy! She watched him at our house the day after he got neutered and we felt very confident leaving him with Alexandra. She was prompt, communicative, and provided photos and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was amazing. She gave us great peace of mind knowing that our two boys were taken care of while we were away. I really appreciated the pictures she sent with updates on how they were doing. Our dog is 15 years old and Jennifer was very understanding of his needs and quirks!”
“Abigail absolutely saved me and my Frenchie when my originally-booked sitter no-showed me hours before an international trip. Abigail was communicative, calm, and quickly formed a rapport with me and my dog despite never having met either of us! I’m so grateful for the exemplary care and kindness she showed and will 100% book with her again in the future!”
“Peggy was hands-down the best house sitter we’ve had. She stayed at our house for a week with our two dogs and sent daily updates that kept us at ease while we were away. When unexpected tree work popped up at the house mid-stay, she rolled with it seamlessly and even kept us posted on how the dogs were doing with the noise. She also watered our newly-planted plants. Our Bernese Mountain Dog is noise-anxious and usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but you could tell in every photo Peggy sent that she felt safe and at ease. We can't recommend Peggy enough. If you want a sitter who's attentive, communicative, and genuinely great with anxious pups, she's the one to book.”
“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”

Natalie was fantastic. She house-sat and dog-sat for us for over a week and went above and beyond. The house was spotless when we got home, kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms were all clean, and she even left our mail in a neat, tidy pile. It was clear she genuinely cared for our home like it was her own. She took wonderful care of Ginger too, lots of walks, and she sent us so many fun photos along the way so we got to see Ginger out enjoying herself the whole time we were gone. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Ginger was in such good hands. We would welcome Natalie back in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter. Five stars all around!

Connie is an absolute treasure. We are so thankful for her putting our minds at ease while we took a family vacation. This was the first time we used a pet sitting service and were blown away by her kindness and professionalism. We knew our two pups and kitty were treated like family and that means SO much to a pet owner when you are away. Thanks Connie! 🫶
If you're looking for a reliable caring person to watch out for your four-legged family member Camryn is an excellent choice. Not only did she treat my sprocket like her own, but she also did an amazing job house sitting. Her attention to detail was excellent. She went above and beyond her obligations and was really just a class act from start to finish. I'd gladly use her again in the future.
Carol was amazing! Excellent communication, reliable, sent regular updates with pictures, and took excellent care of our puppy for the day! This was the first time I needed an all day sitter, I could not be happier Carol was ours! She gave me complete confidence and peace of mind that our girl was safe, healthy, and having a great day with her there. I will absolutely hope to get to work with Carol again in the future for any day / overnight sitting, and if you are looking for someone to take the best of care of your pet while you’re gone, I absolutely recommend confirming with Carol! Thank you so much!!
Jenelle did a great job taking care of our 4 dogs and 1 cat! She was very responsive and easy to work with. She sent daily photos and let me know how they were doing. She even watered my outdoor plants for me. We will definitely ask her again when we need a sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Brooklyn Center
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brooklyn Center on Rover is $45.26 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 3,478 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brooklyn Center. 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 Brooklyn Center 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 Brooklyn Center 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 Brooklyn Center 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
