About: I grew up on a farm! So from chasing chickens to rounding up horses, I’ve had the best time being around animals. The current lady of the household is named Stix. I am full time dog mom! I work full time but always find the time for my Stix girl. We take many walks throughout the day and all the pets you could imagine! My dog at home has a safe loving environment. I’d love to provide that to your loved fur baby by staying true to your wants and needs for them.

Franki was an excellent communicator, went above and beyond spending her time with our dog in his own home so he would be comfortable, and we're so thankful for her! Great experience and our new go-to option if we need to travel!”

About: I grew up taking care of and pet sitting a half dozen dogs between my own and cousins’ houses. I take pride in treating your pets like family and ensuring a good time is had by all. My schedule is open allowing me to take care of your dogs in your home, mine, or engage in a daily walk schedule, plan etc. I’m happy to oblige to the care of your pets in your home, but generally wouldn’t be boarding, so to say, animals in my own home. I have a vehicle outfitted with a safety net, as well as the experience to know that dogs can surprise you and it’s better safe than sorry. Leashes are constantly held and my attention is not often distracted from your pet while they’re in my care!

About: I have been dog sitting for a little over 9 years and I haven’t met a dog that didn’t love me. I will love on and spoil your pup in it’s time with me! I am very active and love taking walks around our neighborhood and would love to do so with your dog! I have dogsat/housesat for many different families and they come back every year for their vacations because their dogs get treated like princes and princesses and it’s such better care then they would get at your normal vet or dog boarding facility. I do have a 5 year old golden retriever of my own that I typically have with me at all times but if that’s an issue we can discuss further! I’m currently an online student and working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to give your dog the care and attention they need! I live in an apartment so I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I will always make sure to keep in mind your dogs safety as first priority when caring for them!

About: I've been helping out families I know with dog and cat sitting since 2020 and am ready to do it in a more formal way. ——- Here's the story: my behaviorally-complex bestie turned me into a dog trainer, and now my day job is helping other families like mine. I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA) and Fear Free Certified Professional (FFCP). ——- I like to take things slow when I meet a new pet, unless they're not into that kind of thing and would rather go straight to sharing our personal space. I can take a hint...because I've spent time learning body language! ——— I believe in meeting an individual's needs based on their responses to activities. We can find all kinds of projects to fulfill your pet's physical, mental, and emotional needs. Enrichment is the key! ——- I also have lots of experience caring for reptiles and amphibians, and I share my home with two snakes. 🐍 I work full-time from home, and have a flexible work schedule. This makes it easier to fit caring for folks' pets in the comfort of their own home into my schedule. As a Fear Free Certified Professional, the comfort of the pet in front of me is my #1 concern. I want to meet your pets before I drop in, so let's set up a meet and greet! ----- I love engaging pets with mentally stimulating activities that allow the expression of their natural behaviors. Since I build enrichment plans for pets for a living, I tend to find creative ways to incorporate what is available to help pets use their bodies and brains to have a good time.

About: Besides being a pet owner myself, I’ve worked for a puppy breeder, at well loved dog and cat grooming salons, and been a veterinary assistant where I gained experience in medications. How to orally and transdermally administer, as well as some injections and fluids. I’ve previously been a full time pet sitter/walker before as well! I’ve had lots of experience getting to know the needs and behaviors of dogs and cats. I’m a huge exotic animal lover too so if you have any rodents, lizards, snakes I’d be comfortable taking care of those! I’m currently doing pet sitting and walking full time so I have lots of free time to accommodate your pet needs whether that be multiple visit through the day, or 1 hour + long visits. I am more than comfortable to take care of dogs in yours and their personal home setting as well as welcoming them to my home. I live in a safe community with no pets or children of my own at home currently. I have a yard that is fenced and also have plenty of space to walk them around my neighborhood.

About: I have cared for cats and dogs my whole life! I've personally had 5 dogs and 5 cats (at different times in my life) and I've cared for many more! I specialize in caring for bigger dogs such as Pit Bulls, Rotties, and Great Pyrenees, I love animals and want to see they get the most loving and compassionate care! I am currently not working a typical job so I have more than enough time to spend with your fur babies and am willing to make any schedule work! I live in a townhouse attached to an apartment complex where I have a small fenced in yard and an available dog run. I have two kitties of my own but they are comfortable being kept in the bedroom if your babies aren't fully comfortable with kitties!

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. Hi! I currently work for Amazon and have a schedule of four 10-hour shifts each week. Outside of work, I have plenty of time to care for and spend with your pets. I have been dog sitting since I was a kid and have always had a love for animals. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members, and I would treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own! I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!

I will always rave and rave about how professional, kind, and lovely Bree is. She's fantastic with my dog and I'm sure with every dog she sits for. It's been such a relief having her take care of my dogs, and her communication and pictures makes me feel so much more at ease when I have to leave my baby at home. Highly recommend!!!

Melinda was fantastic taking care of my babies while I was out of town. She communicated well and gave great notes for the check ins. She was also really flexible when our dates/times had to be adjusted. I’ll definitely be trusting her to babysit my dogs, cat, and bunny again. Especially with the extra TLC she gave one of my dogs when he had an anxiety episode.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Brookside Estates

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Brookside Estates is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 371 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Brookside Estates. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brookside Estates. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
