“Rebecca worked very hard to keep our dogs comfortable and safe. She did a fantastic job, even with our very shy dog. she kept us updated throughout, We would definitely use her services again,”
“Tonie is always amazing but she went above and beyond this time, immediately assuring us she would do extra drop-in visits when our flight home was delayed (on Christmas Eve no less!). Tonie is the best!”
“Mariah was amazing! She came to our house and watched our 2 dogs for 4 days and did a fantastic job! I got daily updates as well as pictures letting me know how the dogs were doing the whole time. She played outside with them and spent quality time with them! I knew they were in good hands while I was away. She listened to all of the directions and left our house very clean! I highly recommend her and will be using her again for future bookings! If you are looking for someone reliable and trustworthy, book with Mariah!”
About: I have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood and my own dogs from a very young age in all kinds of breeds and ages. I am currently an online college student working to get side income. I am able to work around lots of times to fit your needs! I will make sure to be attentive to any age dog in your home and provide wonderful enrichment and play time to get the energy out!
“Bree has spent the last week watching our 9 month old puppy. She suggested doing scent games to keep him occupied and mentally stimulated as well as other basic training he is still working on. She sent lots of photos and always kept us in the loop!”
“Teresa was excellent taking care of our two dogs and kitten. She walked the dogs everyday, sent updates and pictures, and was very responsive. She also tidied up before we arrived back home. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Franki was great! My husband and both felt immediately at ease when we met her. She took great care of my dogs and the house looked great when we returned. I will definitely be using her again.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Julia. She truly cared for our pets like they were her own family. Not only is she incredibly professional and trustworthy, but her communication kept us at ease the entire time. Julia has such a great character and is a natural with animals. We’ll definitely be booking her again—she’s awesome!”
“So, relying on folks we knew as reliable dog/house sitters hasn’t worked out well for us. So I thought “I’ll use a service.” Perhaps paying folks I don’t know - and who will rely on my review of their service as a means to obtain more business - and truly treating this as a business transaction, would be a better route than assuming all of my friends love my babies as much as I do. I chose Tracy solely based upon his large number of positive reviews. Tracy was all business, and I appreciated it. As a first time customer he made time to stop by and meet me and the pups and let me show him around the house. We agreed upon the time he would spend here, and that he would take my puppy back to his house for the night. And what we agreed upon is exactly what happened. I got regular updates and he humored me through my constant texts. I never waited longer than a few minutes to get a reply from him. It was equally refreshing to come home after being gone all night and have it seem as though nobody had been in my house, and to have the dogs happy, calm and content. Thank you Tracy!”
“Hannah took such great care of our dog and our home. And she sent lots of photo updates while we were gone! 🥰 I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs.”
“Alexis did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies. She made sure to keep them active, give lots of updates and make sure they felt spoiled and loved! Will definitely be using her in the future for all of our sitter needs!”
“We had a meet and greet and that went very very well. We found we had a lot of things in common and our dog Sammy really warmed up to them quickly. We just had a good vibe that they were gonna take really great care of our house and our fur baby.! They also provided excellent communication throughout each day by sending texts, pictures and videos! And when we arrived home, the house was immaculate. Everything looked so nice and welcoming after being gone for a whole week. We would highly recommend them and we’ll definitely use them again. Thank you both so much for your care with Sammy. 🥰🥰🥰”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alissa! She cared for our three dogs from Tuesday through Friday and did an excellent job. She followed all of the care instructions we provided, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home everything was exactly how we left it, clean and well cared for. Most importantly, our dogs were happy and clearly well looked after. We truly appreciate her reliability and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
“Christie was fabulous! Great communication, reliable, and just a kind person. We were really grateful for her to have stayed and our pup was sad when it came time for her to leave!”
About: What sets me apart is that I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bunny. Because of this, I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I have experience walking energetic dogs, caring for playful puppies, and making sure senior pets feel safe and comfortable. My background helps me tune in to each pet’s unique routine and give them the same love and attention they’d get from you. I currently work full-time, but I have some flexibility during the week with enough notice. I hope to be working from home full-time soon, which will allow me to be home more often and more readily available to help care for your fur babies during special events, last-minute trips, or whenever you need an extra hand! As of right now, I have a domestic long-haired cat and a puppy who is a Mastiff-Pit mix. I’ve had my cat, Garrett, since he was born and my puppy, Storm, since April of this year. They are getting along much better now, although Garrett will occasionally swat at Storm when he gets a little too playful—there have never been any fights between them. Storm is very sweet, social, and full of energy, and he loves playing with other dogs. I also have extra rooms available to give visiting dogs their own space when they need a break, some quiet time, or simply a little room to themselves.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brookside Estates
Bree is so much more than a dog sitter. Had big storms come through that knocked tree limbs all over the place, including my roof. Bree took a ton of pics and shared with me so I could accurately speak with my insurance. Aside from that, my pups were very well taken care of. Bree kept me updated on when she was leaving, how the dogs were doing, play time, and sent a TON of pictures throughout the week that were sent to me. My dogs seemed very happy and were worn out when I got home. I will definitely be booking with Bree again as travel needs arise for work. If youre reading reviews on Rover and not sure how to start this process (like i was), start with Bree. She came to my house for a couple hours prior to the requested dates, met the pups and asked a ton of questions about their personalities. I honestly probably overdid it with the details, but it honestly feels like she remembered the details. Stop scrolling through the reviews and reach out to Bree. 10/10 will book again.

Marissa was AMAZING!!! She sent updates multiple times a day and sent us photos and videos of our dog as well. She was very informative and followed our dogs schedule perfectly. She walked him, fed him his morning greenies, and more! We would book her again and again! She’s awesome with our dog and we knew from the moment she walked in they were going to be besties.

FAQs for House Sitting - Brookside Estates
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookside Estates on Rover is $54.39 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 231 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookside Estates. 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 Brookside Estates 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 Brookside Estates 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 Brookside Estates 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookside Estates. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
