“Monica is amazing! She took such good care of our pups; specialized walks depending on energy levels, park play, spent time giving attention and love to them while being on top of all medicines or ointments. My dogs absolutely adore her and I will definitely book again and again with her! 🐶🩷🐶🩷”
“Angie was great. She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire time she took care of both our pups. The pups were healthy and happy and our home was kept clean. We would have her house sit for us again.”
About: Hey! I'm Nazareth. I'm 22, a part-time community college student, and I also work full time as the manager of a dog daycare and boarding facility in San Ramon. I started working professionally with dogs when I was 17, and over the years I've gotten comfortable with just about every personality. High-energy dogs that love to jump? No problem. Seniors who need medication? Happy to help. Nervous, anxious, or reactive dogs? I'm comfortable working at their pace and earning their trust. I currently work full-time, so my availability varies depending on the day. Workdays (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday): Available before 9:30 AM Unavailable 9:30 AM–1:00 PM Available 1:00 PM–2:00 PM Unavailable 2:00 PM–7:30 PM Available after 7:30 PM Days Off (Wednesday & Saturday): I'm generally available throughout the day and have much more flexibility for drop-ins, walks, or extended visits. If your requested time falls outside my listed availability, don't hesitate to reach out anyway. My schedule can occasionally be adjusted, and I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every booking. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, especially while their owners are away. While caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep food and water fresh, clean up after your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on what your pet enjoys. You'll also receive regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for. I'm experienced in recognizing animal body language and responding calmly to different personalities and situations. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I'll provide patient, reliable care tailored to their needs.
About: I’ve taken care of just about every pet under the sun; cats , dogs, hamsters & guinea pigs, frogs, lizards and chameleons and more! I adore animals and would be honored to look after your loved ones. Available pretty much any time for walks and check ins except for Tuesday/ Thursday from 1 to 5. Open availability for house sitting, shoot your shot and I’ll let you know! I am very respectful and will follow any boundaries you set, I know everyone does pet care differently so let me know your method and I will follow it! I’m comfortable driving animals around if needed, can take them on long walks around parks or neighborhoods, etc. Let me know if you have any questions!
“Laura was fantastic. She cared for our dog like her own and made sure to give us great daily updates while we were out of the country. She even cleaned the house, which was amazing to come home to after a long trip. We will definitely be rebooking with Laura in the future. She created a great friendship with our dog and we are so thankful!”
“Mary did a great job watching my pup while I was away for six days. She gave him lots of attention and short walks (he’s a frenchie so can’t walk too far in the summer). She provided updates and was quick to respond when I reached out, so my mind was at ease while being far away. My place also immaculate upon my return. Overall, I was very pleased and would definitely book Mary again.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs including my own senior Shih Tzu for 14 years. I currently offer daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight boarding, and in-home pet sitting. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, potty breaks, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and calm presence they need while their owners are away. I also make sure pets stay on their usual schedule as much as possible so they feel safe and settled. Whether it’s a quick visit during the day, a walk to get energy out, or staying overnight, I focus on being reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. About my schedule: Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I am available full-time. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable, consistent and attentive care while ensuring each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. We have a large fenced balcony at first floor. Also a big area in our community with natural grass perfect for play and potty breaks.
About: Hello! My name is Elise and I’m a dog walker with lots of personal pet training experience that specializes with reactive dogs both large and small. Just give me a list of things your pup may struggle with or that you want them to learn and I will do my best to help them learn to emotionally regulate on walks, around other dogs and people, or just while at home when I’m pet sitting :). I can also write you progress reports and training that should be continued at home for the best results. I can also offer my help to older dogs or dogs with arthritis or other joint/muscle issues. I am a certified personal trainer and a lot of the things I’ve learned about human muscles and pain relief also apply to puppy bodies. Disclaimers: I do not take dogs on off leash walks unless it’s at a private gated property I do not walk multiple dogs in one session as this will often cause/increase reactivity. Depending on how reactive your dog is, how new they are to walks, and how strong they are, I strongly suggest having a muzzle and, in severe cases, may require that they have one for a session. I can always help recommend the most comfortable one for your pet as my 90 lb dog needed one for walks in the beginning of training and still needs it for vet trips :) I taught her that it’s not a punishment and desensitized her to it by associating it with positive things like treats and now she helps me put it on her. I work from 6 am - 9 am every weekday morning and have therapy on Wednesdays at 10. Outside of that, my other commitments are flexible and my main focus is on building my clientele here on rover :) I plan on fulfilling any need/chore my client’s owner lists for me and I offer free training when wanted. Outside of that, I pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and potty/feeding schedule to ensure they are fed on time, let out for potty, taken out for walks, and played with as needed and in a way that is most fulfilling for their breed. For example, I play herding games for herding breeds, lots of training and learning tricks for working breeds, etc. I also love to help dogs with arthritis or other joint/muscle issues by massaging them. I am a certified personal trainer and a lot of the things I’ve learned about human muscles and pain relief also apply to puppy bodies.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, starting with Daisy, a cocker spaniel I got back in second grade. She lived to a happy old age and even had puppies. I kept one, a cockapoo named Lucas, and he’s still with me today along with his sister Bella. They’re almost 13 now, so I know senior dogs well, plus all the energy and walks that younger ones need. Over the years I’ve dog sat and house sat for family and friends, with everything from small dogs to big breeds like a Kangal and a pit/bulldog mix. I’m comfortable with all kinds, though small to medium dogs are my sweet spot. I’m also happy to handle the little stuff, like ear cleaning, that some breeds need. Whether your dog is a puppy, full of energy, or slowing down a bit, they’ll be in calm and caring hands with me. My schedule shifts week to week since I’m balancing work and school, but overall it gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m generally free most mornings and have stretches throughout the day to check in, walk dogs, or spend real time with cats rather than just rushing through visits. For house sitting, I plan my hours around your pet’s routine, not the other way around. I’ve had pets my whole life, so a calm and safe environment is second nature to me. For dogs, that means sticking to their walk and feeding schedule and being attentive during play and downtime. For cats, I’m careful about doors and entry points since I know how easily they can slip out, and I keep an eye on plants or anything toxic that curious pets might chew on. Either way, I follow your home’s rules exactly as you’d want them and pay attention to the small things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable with someone new around.
“Brittany took wonderful care of our dogs, cats, and rats! She was very responsive, attentive, and communicated well with us while we were away. We appreciated the way she tracked their schedule and went above and beyond cleaning up after them in our yard. It definitely made our time away more relaxing.”
“Jordan took care of our 2 cats for a week when we went away on vacation. He was really on top of things, responsible and reliable. He sent us photos daily by text to assure us everything was happening according to plan. He’s really nice too. I highly recommend him!”
“Elizabeth took such good care of our dog while we were away for our trip. She sent updates and photos daily and made sure our dog was comfortable and loved every day. We highly recommend Elizabeth for anyone who is in need of someone to watch after their pet and home.”
“Aida did an excellent job staying with Frankie at my home!! She is a great communicator, and I could tell Frankie was very comfortable with her. I will absolutely be asking her for help again in the future!! I am so glad that I found you Aida!”
“Jesika and Jyhikeen sat for our 3 rambunctious cats for 10 days, and were wonderful! Great, caring communication, daily photos, and we came home to a clean house and happy cats. We'd absolutely hire them again.”
“Tori was absolutely wonderful. Our dog is very skittish and does not warm up to people easily, but within minutes of meeting Tori, she was affectionate and clearly comfortable. Tori was incredibly responsive, responsible, proactive, attentive, and respectful throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated, took amazing care of our dog, and treated our home with real care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both our dog and house were in such capable hands. We cannot recommend Tori highly enough and are already planning to book her again to stay at our house when we travel later this summer.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Brookshire is $75
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brookshire
Daryl was an amazing dog sitter. I have a 14-year old terrier mix and she is hesitant about people she doesn't know well. It took her only a couple of hours to bond with Daryl. They enjoyed long walks in the neighborhood and sitting on the deck enjoying the birds and flowers. Daryl was also very helpful with watering my plants around the house, setting up a new TV and taking a defective one to UPS for return. The house was in excellent shape when I returned, and more importantly, so was my dog. I received photos and messages from Daryl throughout my travel, which put my mind at ease. In the 14 years I have owned my little dog, Daryl was by far the best dog sitter I have had. I will not hesitate to use his services again.
Destiny was great to work with and will be our go to as much as possible. She stayed at the house for the weekend and Millie had an amazing time with her. She was a happy girl when we got home. Destiny was responsive and kept us updated. She kept Millie engaged and on schedule (which is amazing for a puppy) and our house was in perfect condition. We feel lucky to have found a trustworthy caregiver!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookshire on Rover is $63.87 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 9,633 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookshire. 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 Brookshire 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 Brookshire 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 Brookshire 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.
