About: Hi!! As a lifelong dog owner, caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I understand that each dog has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to treating every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I always bring patience, love, and reliability. What sets me apart is my personal connection to pet care — I’m not just a sitter, I’m someone who truly understands the trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s hands. You won’t just get someone to look after your pet—you’ll get someone who genuinely cares. Pet care fits easily into my lifestyle. I play basketball regularly and have scheduled workouts or weight training during certain parts of the day, but once that’s done, my schedule is wide open. I use that free time to focus on what I enjoy most — spending time with animals. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just hanging out with your dog, I’m flexible and reliable. Caring for pets blends perfectly into my routine, and I have plenty of time and energy to give them the attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a large front yard for supervised play and a long walking trail in my neighborhood that’s perfect for daily exercise. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and a great place for dogs of all ages — whether they’re energetic puppies or mellow seniors. I also have one friendly, playful female dog who loves having company. You can trust that I’ll treat your pup like family, follow your care instructions closely, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.
“Blythe was fantastic and will definitely use her again! She stayed in our house and watched our dog for the weekend. She was super communicative and sent lots of pictures. Highly recommend for general dog sitting and/or house sitting.”
“Hailey is awesome! She has cat sit for us multiple times. She is so very conscientious. She sends pics daily so we can see our boys. She stays in touch with us if she has any questions about them. She makes it a point to play with them and keep them happy so they know they are loved. They also sleep with her, so that tells me right there that they really like her.”
“Great with multiple dogs Great with dogs who are a bit shy! Didn’t have to check behind her. I was able to enjoy my baby shower in peace without worrying about my babies.”
“Tammie did an outstanding job with our two high energy dogs. She sent many pictures and updates and the pups seemed to be having a great time. Will definitely use her again. I highly recommend her!”
“Loren was just amazing! We have 3 fur babies with 3 different personalities and they loved her!! Molly, our oldest, sat next to her when we were touching base and kept giving her sad eyes and Raven, the baby had to give her lots of love before she was able to leave. We will be repeat with Loren! Amazing!”
“Diana was great! She did a fantastic job. She kept us informed of how things were going and sent us photos throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend her to anyone and hope to book her again!”
“I had such a great experience! From the moment we met, she was kind, reliable, and clearly cared so much about our dogs. She kept me updated with photos and messages, followed our dogs’ routine, and made sure they felt comfortable and loved while I was away. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a clean home, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone”
“I contacted Canija due to a no show from a previous sitter. I was out of town and needed immediate care for my dogs at home. She responded promptly and showed up at the agreed upon time. My dogs seemed to be well taken care of and my home was in the same state I left it in. She stayed in touch and didn't hesitate to ask questions. I will definitely use Canija again.”
“Jhada was so sweet, the boys were so happy and the house was so clean, it doesn’t even look like the dogs were home all weekend much less a new person! Will definitely book again!”
“James is fantastic! He has watched our dog (and house) several times. It is obvious that he loves animals and he is very neat and conscientious staying at our house. It has been so helpful having someone we trust to take care of things while we are gone. Highly recommend!”
“Allyson is wonderful. She was able to get my elderly dog to eat when I rarely have been able. 🙏🏼 She is trustworthy and very easy to communicate with. My experience was wonderful 💕”
About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends and family over the past couple of years. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, giving medications when instructed, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets stick to their normal routines. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or simply companionship, I’ll make sure they’re cared for according to their routine. I work hard to be dependable and responsive, and I’ll always communicate with you about how your pet is doing during their stay or visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large four-bedroom home with plenty of indoor space to relax, along with a huge backyard for supervised play and exercise. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood that’s great for walks. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, crate training, and any special instructions. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home while you’re away.
“Alexis was amazing. There are very few people who can handle three precocious pit bulls and a cat, but Alexis was able to do it with ease. I will definitely use her service again.”
“I needed a last minute dog sitter and Kendall was kind enough to agree to help. She was great and did such a good job taking care of my Ellie and provided photos and updates throughout her stay. She even left a sweet gift for me upon my return. Would definitely have her take care of Ellie again!”
“Bhavana did a great job house sitting and watching our two pups! She was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. She sent us photos and our pups looked happy. It's always a relief to not have to worry while you are out of town. We requested her services last minute because our original plans fell through so we are very appreciative of Bhavana!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Brooks
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brooks on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,877 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brooks. 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 Brooks 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 Brooks 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 Brooks 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.

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.
