“Amanda took excellent care of my beagle guy while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly love animals. I appreciated the regular updates and photos! It gave me real peace of mind. My dog seemed happy, well-exercised, and comfortable when I returned. I would absolutely book them again if I ever travel back to Houston.”
“Brianna did amazing caring for our senior dog and adult dog recovering from surgery. She truly provided excellent care for our babies, followed our dog’s special recovery needs and communicated thoroughly.”
“Ashley was great with both our young dog and our cat, the latter of which is not the easiest to please. She was a great communicator throughout the entire process and, as an added bonus, took photos of both pets that will probably end up framed in our house. I can’t recommend this person enough!”
“We felt really comfortable leaving our home and pups with Reagan and we will be asking her to stay again! She communicated well, was punctual, and followed the instructions that we left. She sent pictures while we were away and we returned to happy pups and our home just the way we left it 😊”
About: I absolutely love animals! I'm patient, caring, and understanding, and I believe every pet deserves compassion and kindness. I have a special place in my heart for rescue pets because every animal has their own unique story. Being attentive, patient, and making your pet feel safe and loved is always my priority. I'm here to help make life easier for both you and your furry family member. 🤍 I work at my family’s business that’s from home and I do pick up sides jobs very often to earn some more cash on the side i am most flexible weekdays early morning until 4:30pm if since I am able to move my schedule around then most people I can always try to work out after hour care if really needed I’m always understanding if anything! To ensure your furry one safety I would like to go down what your most comfortable me doing in certain difficult situations or any other situations your most convened about I will never do anything that I wouldn’t do to my own pets or wouldn’t like others to do so communicate is key 🔑
“Faith was fantastic with our 3 bullies! They took to her immediately. I could tell from the pictures that they felt right at home with her. She was excellent at giving the boys their meds and keeping track of it. She would also let me know of anything that seemed out of the norm asap. I give her 5 stars! It’s hard to find someone who understands and is willing to cater to my wild and spoiled boys, but Faith managed it with flying colors!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover! ❤️ My family and I began volunteering with the Houston Humane Society when I was young, and not long after, we started fostering animals — primarily dogs of various ages. Over the years, we’ve fostered more than 60 animals, each with their own personalities and needs. I also rescued a cat and cared for him until he found his forever home! I’m available for overnight stays, drop-in visits, and dog walking throughout the week and can be fully attentive to your pet’s needs during that time. I also work remotely part-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care, plenty of attention, and consistent companionship for your pets. I’m extremely vigilant, responsible, and respectful when caring for pets in a client’s home. 🏠 I make it a priority not only to care for the pet, but also to treat the home with the same respect I would expect in my own space. I carefully follow any schedules, routines, and instructions provided to ensure your pet feels comfortable and everything runs as smoothly as possible. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, so I’m very mindful about making sure both your pet and your home are well cared for.
About: I have been around dogs and cats my entire life. All of my friends, family, and neighbors have counted on me to care for their pets whenever they could not be home to do it themselves. I am currently self employed. I set my own schdule. So I will have ample time to give your fur-babies the attention they deserve. I normally schedule at least 45 minutes to an hour per visit. Allowing plenty of time to walk the dogs, love on the dogs or cats, clean litter boxes. And feed the fur-babies
About: I’m patient, genuinely attentive, and detail-oriented, your pet’s actual routine, comfort, and personality matter to me, not just the basics of food and a walk. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a daily walk, or overnight care in your home, I treat every pet like they’re already loved, because they are. I’d be honored to help care for your pet and your home. I am a freelance video editor, so Rover is the perfect way for me to meet new animals and finish my video edits in a calm environment. I treat every home and pet with real care and respect, keeping spaces clean, secure, and calm. I follow feeding schedules, medication needs, and safety routines exactly as instructed, and I always keep a close, attentive eye on pets, whether we’re indoors relaxing or out on a walk together.
About: I have taken care of my dog for 11 years and I treated her like my own daughter until she passed away lately. I have also taken care of my cat for 7 years. I picked him and his siblings up at the side of the street. I gave his siblings to my relatives and I kept one without the tail. He became my baby cat ever since. I'm currently working at home, so I have a plenty of time to play with your pups and kitten! I can work from 8-9am till 3-4pm. I can well take care of your dogs or cats all the time at your home. To make sure of them not getting hurt, not hungry, not thirsty, or not messy around.
“Desdrianneja was an amazing sitter, especially for taking such a last minute booking. Holiday travel plans changed and we ended up not having someone available. She took our booking at the absolute last minute and didn’t even bat an eye. She was punctual on check-ins with our cats, and went out of her way to keep an eye on our shyer cat who likes to hide. She helped clean up litter boxes and trash on her way on and overall was a perfect fit. Would book again.”
About: love dogs! I own a Bernese mountain dog and she is my entire world. Would love to help care for your fur baby like I care for mine. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any walk or drop in as necessary. I can also do weekends if needed and don’t require crazy amount of notice. I have a fence in yard with space for dogs to run and play. I wouldn’t take a dog outside in the middle of the day due to the extreme heat. As a dog owner myself I take the comfort and temperature of dogs very seriously
“We are new to Houston and this was our very first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous leaving our dog while traveling out of the country. Siyu completely exceeded our expectations! She stayed in our home and cared for our pup as if she were her own. We received regular updates and tons of pictures, which gave us such peace of mind and made us feel connected while away. Most importantly, our dog absolutely loved her and was so well cared for. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend booking Siyu. She will definitely be our go-to sitter for all future trips!”

Paris is absolutely wonderful and reliable! She kept Hudson comfortable and happy during our time away from home. She sent lots of pictures of Hudson, and Hudson really enjoyed her time with her. She was very thorough with Hudson’s care and left our home clean, which I’m very grateful for. I will definitely book with Paris again and I highly recommend her for your pet’s care. Thank you so much Paris for everything you have done!

FAQs for House Sitting - Brookside Village
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brookside Village on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,379 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brookside Village. 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 Village 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 Village 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 Village 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.
