“Melissa was great, she showed up right on time the day we left and helped keep our 2 large dogs calm as we left. We got photo updates nearly every day and it felt like our house and pups were in good hands while we were away. When we returned the house was in great shape, the dogs were happy and our plants were thriving! This was a fantastic experience, we would definitely book Melissa again.”
“We have used Rachel multiple times for house sitting our pup. It is such a comfort knowing Rachel is looking after her. She keeps us informed, has zoned into Lexi’s needs and wants, gives her medication and lots of love and attention! We feel so blessed to have found someone so caring and reliable for our little one!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She was incredibly thoughtful and diligent when caring for our 2 cats and 2 dogs while we were out of town. She went above and beyond which was evident when we returned home from our trip and found our house almost cleaner than when we left! We felt confident leaving our pets in her capable and caring hands and will 100% be using Jennifer in the future for any of our pet sitting needs.”
“Kaela is an exceptional pet sitter. She is incredibly kind, communicative, and dependable. She always treats my dogs with excellent care and genuine attention, and I can tell they’re comfortable and happy with her. Kaela is also very respectful of my home, leaving everything just as she found it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“We highly recommend Phillip and cannot fully express how grateful we are for his excellent care of our pup Bennie. Phillip was truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever had ! We booked for house sitting just a couple weeks ago when we planned to bring both our disabled senior dog Max and Bennie . At the time we asked for help with taking special care of Max, repositioning and taking him out every couple hours during our time at Church Retreat. Sadly Max passed before our trip, Phillip was kind enough to still be willing to hang out with Bennie as we were staying at an Airbnb that normally doesn’t allow pets and had given us permission since we have a sitter and a crate for him. Philip was so thoughtful and kind to our Bennie making sure he felt secure and loved. He kept us informed on how Bennie was doing throughout the 2 days and was even willing to drive 30 min to the church we attended, so that he could hang out with Bennie in a shady spot for a couple hours ! We look forward to booking Phillip the next time we come to PA👏🐶”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for dogs of all different ages and breeds since I was little. I’m very patient, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I always want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! :) I’m a college student with morning classes and a part-time job, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have plenty of room to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend my free time hanging out with your furry friends! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime! I’ll follow your instructions, stick to their usual routine, and make sure they have everything they need while you’re away. I’ll also be respectful of your home and leave everything neat and tidy! :)
“Left the house in great shape, took care of all mail, packages, put the trash out, etc. She took great care of our pets, and definitely seems very well versed in nervous dog behavior! Will happily rebook in the future!”
About: I am an experienced dog mom and love to take care of them! ♡ I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes and have experience with puppies, adults, and seniors. I would love to give your pup the same love and attention as I do for my own! My 10 year old teacup poodle Junabee is probably the most spoiled dog you will find! I adopted her after a loss in the family and take care of all her needs such as monitoring her leg after surgery, walking her, feeding her, grooming and making sure she is happy and comfortable. I also had my miniature poodle Booh who lived to be 18 years old. As she became older, she developed diabetes and I helped my family take care of her and make sure she was healthy. I also grew up with an Australian shepherd and a Goldendoodle, so I'm very comfortable taking care of big and small dogs. I've also had puppies and know what they require. I can help with anything from walks, playing, companionship, and more! ♡ I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to spend lots of time with your pup throughout the day, I am completely available on the weekends! ♡ I like to keep pets as comfortable and happy as possible by sticking to their usual routines, including meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you leave for their care and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their home. ♡
About: I have had dogs my whole life, and I often pet sit for friends and family. When I am visiting anyone with a dog they typically get most of my attention! I work full time during the week, however I am free most all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I do have some evening availability during the week from 5 pm to 8 pm. I will treat your house and your pet with the utmost care and consideration. I would love to drop by and walk your dog, and will be happy to give you a detailed report
“We had a great first experience with Zach! He stayed at our home with our two older, somewhat needy girls, and they were immediately comfortable and at ease with him. It’s obvious he’s very experienced and comfortable with dogs. He was timely, did a meet and greet beforehand, and sent us plenty of photos, videos, and updates throughout our time away, which we really appreciated. He was also very respectful of our home and left everything exactly as we had left it. Most importantly, the girls were happy and well cared for when we got home. Zach is genuinely nice, reliable, and someone we felt comfortable trusting with both our dogs and our home. We’ll absolutely use him again!”
About: I have been taking care of my family's dogs since I was young. It turns out we're mostly cat people now and I love playtime with cats too! I'm currently working full time and going to school but I would love to visit your dogs, cats or pets on the weekends and holidays. I know having your people leave home for awhile can be a stressful experience for pets. I think having time to play and run around is also an underestimated and important part of pet sitting beyond the basic and feeding and bathroom breaks.
About: I have always been so in love with all animals! I have grown up with all different breeds of dogs (as seen in my photos). Taken care of my own dogs (multiple breeds), my kitty and neighbors pets (dogs and cats) for years. Timely and reliable. Will always get the job done. Please tell me everything I need to know and what you would like me to do to make your baby feel comfortable! I am a full time nursing student but am only taking one online class over the summer. Besides that, I have a 3 year old golden retriever and a year old kitty that I love dearly and spoil rotten and would love to help other pet parents when needed! I will abide by the pet parents rules and make sure they are well cared for, fed, groomed, dogs walked, played with, happy, loved and for them to be as stress free as possible (rather than being alone from their parents and anxious).
“Kianna was fantastic!! This was our first time using Rover and Kianna was very helpful with the process and was amazing with our 2 dogs for the entire week. She sent daily updates (pictures and texts) of our dogs. I would highly recommend Kianna for anyone who’s looking for someone to housesit/dog sit your pet(s).”

The average cost of House Sitting in Brownstown is $34 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $47 per night.

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 Brownstown 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 Brownstown 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Brownstown 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
