“We’ve used Samantha many times, I can’t say enough great things about her! Our dog Millie is super shy, and she was so patient and sweet to her as they got to know each other. Now they are the best of friends. :)”
“Aunya was fantastic. She made sure all four dogs were well taken care and even cleaned up as she left the house. She was very responsive and provided check-ins. I would definitely let her take care of my wild pack any time!”
“We had Ashlyn stay at our house while we were out of town for a week. She took great care of our pup and kitty while we were gone! It was wonderful getting the photo updates and so nice to not stress out our animals by kenneling them. Everyone was so much happier (including us!) to have Ashlyn house/pet sit. We will be booking again for sure!”
“Great dog dog sitter. When I returned from my trip I found she left my home tidy and my dog was healthy, happy and clearly card for. I really enjoyed the pics and vids she sent and would hire her again!”
About: Alongside taking care of my own pets, I have three years of professional experience working with hundreds of dogs daily at a pet care facility. I have been professionally trained to handle feeding, bathing, and medications, including insulin injections and needles, while maintaining clear and professional communication with owners. I have experience handling dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to dogs in their golden years, as well as a wide range of sizes—from Chihuahuas weighing under 3 pounds to large Dalmatians and Rottweilers weighing well over 120 pounds. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and my number one goal is to make sure your pet is well cared for, comfortable, and feels just as loved and secure as they would if you had never left. I am currently a full time student. My week is when I am busiest: Monday and Wednesday I am in class from 8am - 2pm. Tuesday and Thursday I am in class from 1pm - 4pm. I live in an apartment with a fairly strict pet policy so they cannot stay with me personally. Otherwise, I am more than willing to take care of a pet in your home, learn your routes and routines while getting by to know your beloved pet.
“Emma was great staying at our house and watching our dogs and cat. She was very communicative and respectful of our home. Our babies were very comfortable and felt very loved with her.”
“This is the second time I’ve used Josue and I have not had any problems at all. He is very good with Mylo and very responsive when needed. Kept my place in good condition and took great care of Mylo! Will be using him again!”
About: Hi! My name is McKayla, I am 25 years old and I have owned animals my whole life! I currently have 4 cats, 2 dogs, and one bearded dragon of my own. I have daily experience with medication for cats and dogs, and daily experience with specifically picky animals of all ages 🥰 I have a Morning part-time job where my hours extend from 4:30 am - 1 pm of not being available besides Sundays. I am more than comfortable with afternoon/evening/overnight sits and watches! If needed, my house is big with a fenced in yard where I can keep clientele animals separate from my own. MY animals are of no threat to others - however from past experience - it is preferred that boarding at my house be a very last option! I prefer to care for peoples animals in their own home to avoid any change of environment to cause anxiety or depression in your animals. In the past, the animals I have had board at my house will refuse to eat, play, or use the restroom. This breaks my heart to see your fur babies experience this, so anything we can work out to avoid will work with me! 💖
“Danielle took exceptional care of our pets while we were away for a week. She gave me daily updates with pictures which was very reassuring since it was the first time we left them with someone other than family. She went above and beyond by taking out the trash and washing and remaking the bed she slept in and even left a toy for each of the pets! We will continue to hire her whenever we need pet care.”
About: I’ve kept my grand dogs for years and have stayed overnight for several friends on multiple occasions . I have references that talk and bark 😁 I am retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can stay overnight and am usually available on weekends with advance notice. I love snuggles! I ask for an idea of what their day is like and try to follow it as much as possible. I have kept all ages and don’t mind giving medicine or potty training. I live going on walks also!
About: I’ve taken care of pets, dogs, cats, rabbits, and turtles since I was a little girl. I love animals and find comfort in caring for your sweeties. I especially enjoy taking walks with dogs. I am also a registered nurse and have experience in home care for special needs children and seniors. I’m only working part-time as a nurse so I have lots of time to spare to play with your animals. I am available for house sitting a few nights/ week. I will follow your care instructions for your pet and love on them as if they were my own. I appreciate your trust in sharing your animals with me.
“Jeni is the best Rover I’ve ever worked with! Incredibly communicative, prompt, and reliable. I never doubted for one second that my house and dog were in good hands. I will definitely be booking Jeni again!”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have been working with them since I was a young teenager! Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience at a dog boarding facility, a veterinary clinic, and now full-time at a local animal shelter, caring for pets of all personalities and needs. Through fostering, I became even more familiar with cats, and at home, I share my life with two dogs and three cats. I’ve had several long-standing pet-sitting clients before moving to this area outside of Rover, and I love meeting new pets and building bonds with them. I’m confident administering medications and giving attentive, loving care to make sure your furry friends are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. If your pet has fur, I’ve got it covered! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work full-time, so I’m available for morning check-ins or walks before 8 AM and evening visits after 5 PM. On weekends, I’m wide open and happy to schedule drop-ins or walks based on what works best for you and your pet. I may also be able to accommodate a midday walk or check-in between 12 PM and 2 PM, depending on your location and your pet’s needs. I’m also available on government holidays, and I’m always happy to communicate and find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and well cared for! I care for every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. I strive to make every interaction safe, fun, and fulfilling for the animal while respecting their individual needs and boundaries. On walks, I stay alert and attentive, ensuring pets remain safe at all times and calmly leaving any situation that makes them seem uncomfortable or stressed. During drop-in visits, I closely observe each pet’s overall well-being, including their behavior, energy level, and routine, and I will promptly report any concerns to the owner. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so pets feel secure and well cared for in their home or while out on walks.
“Debbie did a fantastic job taking care of my 4 dogs over the weekend. She was so personable, was excited to meet each dog, and lived on them like they were her own dogs. Debbie also took care of the house, straightened up prior to our return, and even washed the cloths I had left in the washer. I will definitely request Debbie next time I need a sitter.”
About: Hi I’m Sarah! I’ve have experience caring for dogs of all personalities. My family has had dogs growing up and I’ve been dog sitting for 6 years now. I’m a huge animal lover, and always try to make sure your pup follows a similar routine to what they’re used to. 💗 I work full time during the week, am home on Fridays, and available on weekends for boarding, providing a calm and attentive environment for your dog. I have a fenced yard and a golden retriever mix who loves to play and socialize! I can easily crate your dog if that’s a part of their routine.
“As all other pet owners have written, Christie does not disappoint! Super attentive to the animals and their needs, and going above and beyond the call of duty. Christie braved walking our crazy bark at everything that moves outside dog twice daily, Wow! Our home was well taken care of and we really appreciate everything Christie did to ensure our pets were safe and well cared for! Thank you so much, Christie! You are greatly appreciated 😻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Ren has an amazing amount of patience with my rescues and the new puppy! Some just like to laze around and others have mass amounts of energy and Ren meets each of them where they are! Already have her booked for more dates!”
About: I’ve had a pet dog since I was 12. One of my favorite things is greeting an animal. Walking and litter boxes do not intimidate me! I work part time for a golf course and attend Athens State. My schedule is flexible. I don’t mind staying overnight if I am given a day to prepare. I like to tend to their restroom needs first, whether that is letting them out or cleaning the litter box first. Playing with animals is fun and good to get some energy out.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 349 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brownsboro. 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 Brownsboro 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 Brownsboro 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 Brownsboro 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 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.
