“Rebecca did an amazing job watching our Susie Q. We absolutely love her trust her and would highly recommend her. She’s on time kept us updated throughout the visit and the overnight stay. We are very satisfied.”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, frogs, lizards, chickens, and ducks over the course of my life, and I'm more than happy to add the fuzzy critters in your home to that list! I currently work full-time, but I can always spare time to take care of any animal! My days off of work are Wednesday and Thursday, so on those days I can spend as much time as is needed! I will give your pets all the care they deserve and then some. I follow all instructions left by the owner at their house, and am used to comforting pets that may have some anxiety.
“Kaitlyn was SO great! Zeke is a 4 month old puppy that is quite high maintenance right now and Kaitlyn was so understanding and patient and treated Zeke as her own. I can’t say enough great things about her!!”
“This was our first time having Bailey watch Trooper, and it was his first time being at a doggie sitters home. Bailey was very calm and reassuring with us on our meet and greet. When dropping him off for his stay we went over his needs since he is older with meds, food and etc. She did awesome with him while he was there and he had a great time with meeting/socializing with other doggies all sizes and ages. Would love to have Troops stay with her again!!”
“Carolyn is thoughtful and attentive to both her two and four legged clients. She checks in with us and sends pics of our pups. They love when she comes to visit and we feel so comfortable leaving them with her!”
About: I have grown up around animals my entire life between pet sitting, breeding, owning, walking, bathing you name it i have done it. I am currently in training to become a dog groomer. I am very passionate about animals and i love them like my own I’m currently training to become a dog groomer twice a week so i’m looking for side jobs to help through it and pay for my tools I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, toys, and companionship from my dogs, while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible.
About: I’ve animal sat for lots of family & friends, I have animal sat snakes, chinchillas, cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, and lizards! I love all animals, and even if I haven’t taken care of a certain animal, I am willing to educate myself on how to take care of them. I do currently work full time and go to school part time. I’m available on weekends at any time, during the weekdays I’m available before 2:30 and after 11pm I’ll always be outside with a dog when it comes to using the restroom just to make sure nothing happens, if your dog isn’t good with other dogs I’ll ensure that we go to the park when there’s no other dogs, or if I’m walking and another dog is coming I’ll just go to the other side of the sidewalk.
About: I have cared for pets my entire life, from watching extended family’s dogs and cats to owning and loving my own. I understand that pets are family, and I promise to treat yours with the same care and attention that I would my own. Whether it’s playing, cuddles, or ensuring their routine stays on track, I am committed to proving excellent care and an stress-free experience for both you and your pet! I am currently working full time. However, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate my full attention and time to pet care when needed. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I can easily incorporate pet sitting into my daily routine! I promise to plan my day around their needs ensuring they receive the most adequate attention and care. I am available on weekends, and weekdays for sure after 5pm, but I can adjust that schedule if need be. I prioritize safety, trust, and an stress-free environment when caring for my pets, whether in my own home or a client’s home. I follow any specific instructions that are given regarding feeding, walking, medications, and routines to ensure consistency and comfort. In a client’s home, I respect their space while keeping the pet’s environment secure. I also keep pet parents updated with regular check-ins and photos of their furry friends. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hi, I’m Emma! I’ve been passionate about animals my whole life and have over 4 years of hands-on experience working at a doggy daycare. I’ve grown up raising dogs and recently welcomed one adorable cat- Phoebe-into my life. ❤️ -I’m certified in pet CPR and first aid through the Red Cross, and I’m trained to administer medications, including pills and insulin. I’ve worked with senior pets, animals with disabilities, and those with medical needs, so your pet will always be in capable and loving hands. -Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for reptiles, rodents, fish, and birds. No matter the breed, size, or temperament, I’m confident and comfortable managing all types of pets—including those with reactive behaviors or special quirks. I’ve truly seen it all! -Whether your pet has feathers, scales, fur, or fluff, I promise to treat them like my own—with lots of love, patience, and care. Animals are my biggest passion, and I genuinely enjoy every moment I get to spend with them. ❤️🐾 I currently work part-time, typically closing shifts on the weekends, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the week and throughout the day. Even with my part-time job, I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. When I take on longer stays or more involved care, I adjust my schedule to prioritize your pet’s needs—so they’ll never miss out on attention, love, or routine. Your pet’s comfort and consistency are always my top priority! I care for your pets right in their own home—where they feel safest and most loved 🐾 I can stop by during the day for walks, meals, and playtime, or stay overnight for extra cuddles and company. Park adventures are always on the table too! 🌳🐶 Your pets get all the love—just like you’d give them 💕

FAQs for House Sitting - Brown City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 212 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brown City. 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 Brown City 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 Brown City 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 Brown City 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.
