“Leslie was great with our dog and kept in contact with us the whole time we were out of town. Our dog takes daily medication and is stubborn in his old age. She was great with him and took care of everything he needed. We will definitely use her in the future!”

“Brandon is an amazing dog sitter! He treated all of our dogs like his own and was super dependable. He came over and met the dogs prior to his first stay with them and got along great. He isn’t afraid of asking questions and is very kind. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Emily did a great job. She was communicative, professional, and my animals loved her. It was evident that she loves animals. She was really helpful in not just one, but two last minute situations where I needed help. I highly recommend her and will certainly be looking to use her in the future.”

About: I am a pet owner myself. I have a 2 year old puppy, great pyrenees and mount bernese mix, Willow. We adopted her at 8 weeks old and have been happy ever since. I’m currently working part time at a local grocery store. I’m free in the evenings Monday-Wednesdays, available all day Thursdays and Fridays. Available late afternoon Saturdays and Sundays. I’ll follow any instruction that is needed to take care of your pet. I can give baths, play with your pet in the backyard, and I will clean any mess your pet makes. If your animal needs a brush, I don’t mind brushing them. I can give your dog walks around the neighborhood.

“We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.”

About: Caring for other is my passion. Whether it's people or pets. I love animals and treat them like another member of the family. I grew up with pets and I've cared for them my entire life. I also have a nack for training dogs as well. I potty trained my dog and taught her to open doors and take items to others. I can provide play data as well with family members who have pets as well with other rover customers if desired. I live in a safe and clean environment that will foster a great experience for all parties. I'm looking to build long lasting relationships with all pets and their owners. Choosing me will be a great choice. Have a great day. Thank you for your consideration.

About: I have been in the pet-sitting scene for 3 years now! Started with friends and family, then branched out from there! I've learned how to care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and my favorite type of pet: rodents (Guinea Pigs are the Best!). Taken care of older pets that need medications and careful care, as well as young and energetic pets that need some more playtime and enrichment! I believe one of the most important skills to have to be a great pet sitter is proper and clear communication with the owners. I communicate how often an owner would want! I would communicate with videos and pictures of your pet's adventures, or communicate any concerns if any arise. I want to make sure that while you're away, you can rest easy knowing your pet is safe and happy! :) I do work part-time as of right now, typically working 15-25 hours a week. I mostly work morning shifts from 10:30-5:00, but usually leave an hour early. If you need me to stay most of the day, please let me know at least a month in advance; I would happily take off work! There are a few things I would like to know about your furry little friend: 1. How often do they need to go out? 2. How much enrichment do they need? 3. Do they take any medication? 4. Do they have any triggers I should be concerned about? 5. Do they have a good understanding of commands? (It's ok if not :3) 6. How long can they be left alone? Please inform me of anything I need to know. I want to make sure your baby/babies are taken care of! I can't wait to meet some new friends! I'm currently working a part-time job typically working 15-25 hours a week. I usually work morning shifts ranging from 10:30-5 or 11:00-5:00, but sometimes get off an hour early depending on the day. If I need to stay for the majority of the job, please let me know at least a month in advance; I will gladly ask off! I will inform you of my schedule when we talk! :) I ensure I’m properly informed of your pets making sure I know their personality, if they have medication, habits, etc. I make sure they have plenty of enrichment through the day and I love to update my clients of their pets well-being by sending pictures, videos, and more!

About: I’ve dog sat and house sat for friends before and they have trusted me with their house and animals, generally for 1 week but sometimes for longer or shorter. I take very good care of the home and animals, listen to instructions careful and apply those instructions in order to be helpful. I will always be upfront and honest with everyone and I always communicate well. I currently work as a full time server at Texas Roadhouse and live by myself. I am not married nor have any kids yet so it’s just me. My schedule is pretty flexible in the morning to early afternoon due to having to serve at night generally. I don’t mind coming in to help before and after work. I don’t have any pets in my own home because I can’t due to landlord rules but I grew up with animals throughout my whole life. I play with the animals if they want to play, pet them, feed them when they need to be fed, take them on walks (dogs), just have fun with them!

About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs of all kinds my entire life. Although I don’t currently have a pet my friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and administer meds to their pets. My love of dogs makes being a sitter on rover the perfect job! I currently work full time two days from home and two in the office with one day off each week. My in office days are typically from 8:30-4:30 I have a fenced in yard and live in a dog walking friendly neighborhood. It will not be an issue to crate your dogs or let them roam my home freely whichever keeps with your normal routine.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been second nature. I’ve pet sat for friends and family, including caring for my friend’s dog during trips and helping care for my partner’s dogs while she’s in nursing school. I’ve also looked after a kitten. I make sure every pet is fed, gets plenty of exercise and potty breaks, stays clean if bathing is requested, and receives lots of love, attention, and patience.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would be honored to care for your furry family members. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large and small dogs, as well as indoor and feral cats, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, needs, and energy levels. My professional background is in senior care, where I coordinated care across West Louisville and served as an Activities Director in several local senior living communities. Those roles taught me the importance of patience, reliability, communication, and treating every individual with kindness and respect. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet. Whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, a calm presence, or just someone dependable to keep their routine on track, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My 2-year-old loves dogs, and caring for pets is a sweet way for our family to spend time with animals while providing them with a loving, comfortable home environment. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but my kids and I are very active and love going on walks, spending time outdoors, and giving pets plenty of attention and playtime. In my home, your pet will be treated like part of the family with a safe, comfortable space to relax, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, meals and medications given exactly as instructed, and lots of love and supervision. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and can accommodate crate-trained pets if needed. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet is comfortable in their familiar environment while providing reliable walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, cuddles, litter box or potty cleanup, and any medication or special care they need. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I had the best childhood dog growing up. We loved walks, playing fetch, just hanging out. My passion and love for dogs has helped me become the designated office house sitter. I really have no obligations outside of work and even while working, have flexibility to go home and walk and let animals out for fresh air. Hybrid work model so even have opportunities to work from home. Happy to do whatever is needed. I do tend to spoil animals I watch, but love long walks, fetch, etc. I’ve helped animals that have needed medicine, etc.

Selma did a great job watching Titus while I was gone for nearly two weeks. She made sure to work around what he needed and provided plenty of walks. He was on a difficult pill regimen for most of the time I was gone and she followed it perfectly and he is feeling much better.

I had a last minute booking due to other sitters not being able. My boys looked very well cared for when I returned. He has a very large yard for them to run around. He was also flexible with me picking my boys up early. I would use Nelson in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Brooks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 735 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 Brooks. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
