“Kai took great care of our pups while we were away. They both warmed to her quickly and they got along great. They were regularly fed, taken outside, and played with. We received pictures each day as well. Kai was accessible by both text and voice when we did our daily check-in.”
“Aunya watched my dog for me while I was out of town. My dog is an anxious rescue, and Aunya did so well with her! I’m glad I could have someone trustworthy and reliable to care for my fur baby.”
“Allison is awesome! This was our first time using Rover, and from start to finish, it was a great experience, in no small part, due to her patience and kindness. She is very responsive, and communicated early and often - before, during and after her stay. She was wonderful with our two pups, and they were happy and content when we got home from our trip. Highly recommend!”
About: My grandmother lives out of town, she has multiple dogs multiple cats, has owned horses, and keeps chickens and i have house sat for her before for well over a week. I’m great with animals and can fit into any schedule she needs, therefore I’m always the one to house sit while she is away. Not because I’m family but because I have the experience and ability. Monday-Thursday I’m completely free. I like to keep my weekends free but if I am wanted/needed arrangements can be made. I prefer to walk in the morning because it allows me to feel energized throughout the day. If there is a specific way I will follow the owners instructions, if left none, I will simply treat the pets how I would want me pets treated because I love my fur babies.
About: Hi! I’m Emma! Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 4 years old. I grew up with a German Shepherd mix and a Pit Bull mix, so I have experience with big and small, high-energy dogs and understand the attention and exercise they need. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, and they have a special place in my heart. Whether your pup is young and playful or older and prefers a slower pace, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I genuinely love being around dogs and would be thrilled to spend time with yours! I’m a full time touring musician, but I have multiple months in the year where I’m at home and don’t have much to do. I’m almost always available on weekdays, and sometimes weekends. I’m also usually available anytime between 8am-8pm I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. ☺️ I carefully follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise, and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I keep a clean environment, doublecheck doors and gates, and communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾
“Alyce took good care of my 2 poodles. She gave them their meds and kept the cone on one of my poodles due to a broken nail. She keep clean throws on couch and sent photos and updates daily. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Abby did a great job watching my dog! We had a chance to meet beforehand & she and my dog got along immediately. It is clear she’s a caring person and it’s important to her to take good care of the animals she’s agreed to walk & watch. I came home to a dog and a house that were both just as I’d left them, it all went wonderfully! Thanks Abby!”
“Ashlyn is wonderful. My dog adores her. She cares for my Sadie as if she were her own pet. Being gone for a week is always hard on both parent and pet, but Ashlyn made the separation easier with her communication and pictures. We also came home to a spotless house with the carpet vacuumed! You can’t find a better sitter for your house and babies.”
“Nolan was wonderful! She made sure my dogs had exercise before the heat set in and was truthworthy with access to the home without someone being there. Truly appreciate her and will hire her again!”
“Malia has been fantastic with our nervous shepherd, Selkie. I am very cautious about who I leave her with and Malia handled her fabulously, made sure she had the best time and keep us updated with photos the whole time we were away. It was super reassuring and so happy she could take care of her both times we have been away. Highly recommend and will 100% be calling upon her to pet sit for us in the future!”
“Christina was so wonderful! She stayed in our home for a full week and took great care of our dog. She reached out with pictures and updates and left our house exactly how she found it if not cleaner! We really appreciate it”
“Angelica was great with our pups and our home. Excellent messages/updates/pictures. Walks were good exercise, not just a quick walk for them to pee. We’re looking forward to having her back.”
“Bobby did a great job watching our two dogs! He was a great communicator, very responsible, and sent updates and pictures of the pups every time he came to let them out or feed them. He was great with our large dogs, and you can tell the dogs loved him too! We have never felt so comfortable leaving the dogs with anyone- Knowing Bobby was taking such great care of them made us feel so at ease when we were away. We are so glad we found Bobby, and will definitely be using him whenever we need a dog sitter in the future. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and an assortment of rescue animals! I’ve walked and petsat for friends, family, and neighbors for years, and am frequently scheduled to do so! I have experience in a rescue & shelter setting. There is no animal that I have not cared for! I am a recent engineering graduate who has returned to the Huntsville area for work and a post grad program. I work Monday-Friday until early evening but have availability afterwards and on weekends for your pet care needs! I am comfortable with animals of all sorts, and the training each of them are comfortable and brought up with, including crating, walking, feeding, and more!
“Sarah B. is simply AMAZING, Awesome, Extraordinary! Our four-year old poodle, Braxton has never been kenneled or left alone while we were away even a few days at a time. We recently traveled for over a week, and all of our extended family support was going with us! So, we contacted Sarah through Rover and all of our anxiety and concern evaporated at our first meet. Braxton climbed in her arms and cuddled like meeting an old friend. We were immediately set at ease and comfortable that we could turn our house and fur baby over for her protection. She is organized, smart, and most importantly, caring and comforting to dog and human alike. She kept us posted with lots of photos of walks, naps, play time with the hose, and cuddling on the couch. Communication from Europe was seamless, and every time we checked in, she was there to make us rest easy. We feel like we added a new member to our extended family, and you can be sure that we will hire her ANYTIME we need to leave home - even if only for a day. She could easily double her daily fee and would still be under paid for the value she brings. Peace of mind for your loved one while away is worth more than money! THANK YOU, SARAH - We love you wholeheartedly!”
“Elizabeth did a great job taking care of our cat and dog while we were away. We contacted here while we were already out of the country because of issues we had with the sitter we had hired. Elizabeth stepped in (even on a stormy night) and didn't miss a beat. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I have loved dogs since I was a little girl. My parents couldn’t find me when I was 5, finally discovered me curled up sleeping in the dog house with our dogs. I am a dog mom and love my babies. I can walk, feed, play, bath, and definitely love your baby. I have breed several litters so I can take care of expecting moms, and puppies too. Pets are family!! I am very flexible. I am available weekends and weekdays for all your pets needs for walking or sitting. I love animals and will treat them like my own. I am very trustworthy and will respect your home . I will take extremely good care of your babies and love on them and probably spoil them.
“Leona did a great job with Quinn! She stayed in our home for the weekend and gave Quinn her daily medication. She sent pictures every day we were away. Everything was in order when we returned and Quinn seemed happy!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background in healthcare and my natural attention to detail. As a nursing student and soon-to-be hospital worker, I’m very experienced in providing attentive, compassionate care — which easily carries over to how I care for pets. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering medications if needed. I also have experience with both young, energetic pets and senior pets who may need a little extra gentleness and support. I genuinely love building a bond with every animal I care for, treating them like family while keeping their safety, happiness, and well-being my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I am a nursing student who will be starting a hospital job on May 12, working from 3 PM to 11:30 PM. Until then, I have open availability to care for pets. Even after I begin work, I’ll be available during mornings, early afternoons, and late nights for check-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I start classes on May 27, but I only have one in-person class from 12–1 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, leaving plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m responsible, nurturing, and attentive—qualities that come naturally from my healthcare background—and I will treat your pets like they are my own. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication administration, and any special routines or preferences. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and safe. I also love giving pets plenty of playtime, affection, and exercise based on their energy level. Cleanliness and safety are important to me, so I always make sure their space stays clean, and I update owners regularly with messages and photos for peace of mind. With my nursing background, I’m very detail-oriented and comfortable providing extra care if needed.

FAQs for House Sitting - Brownsboro
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 351 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 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.
