My home is equipped with video monitoring, a fully secure fence, and a backyard where pups can safely play and explore.
“Andreina and Mercedes always take incredible care of our 2 babies! They send updates and pictures throughout the day. Whenever we go on vacation, we always leave feeling at peace knowing we can fully trust them.”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and over 8 years of hands-on pet care experience. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, helping with walks, meals, bathing, and daily routines. I also volunteer at animal shelters, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and calm with pets of all temperaments. I truly believe animals deserve love and care, and I treat every pet like family. I have plenty of availability preferably between 8am-2pm and I work for myself so I flexibility and I genuinely enjoy taking care of and spending time with animals I have a small yorkie that is super friendly with both small and big dogs and a small gated backyard.

About: Hi, My name is Michael M. I just moved backed home to Miami. Since my first memories we have always owned dogs. My mom had a habit of picking up stray dogs. Her heart always broke when she saw a furry defenseless dog begging for food or needing shelter. My mom's big heart exposed me to many types of dogs all different sizes and temperament. I have been dog sitting for a while now and it's one of my favorite things to do. I am a realtor and I am able to work from home during the day while clients are working and when I am away it's for only a few hours at a time. I have a fenced yard. Like I said my dog loves social interaction with other friendly doggies and would love to find friends he could play with. I am a real estate agent with my office at home. I will be able to watch over them while they play.
“Carlos was so attentive and loved Hera. She was comfortable and really formed a bond. He sent us consistent updates, which we really appreciated. Hera really enjoyed her time. We would recommend Carlos to anybody that is looking for a competent and diligent dog sitter. We will definitely be booking him in the future!”
“Mia did such an amazing job with Milo and Theo. She was prompt with responding to my messages and communicating if she was running late. My Theo got an upset tummy and she was proactive to communicate with me and give him some medicine I had in the house. I came back and my home was how I left it any boys were happy to see me. I would definitely book with her again.”
“David was a very accommodating sitter, and I felt comfortable knowing Boo and Roosevelt were in his care. He was flexible when we were delayed in getting back home, which was so sweet of him and his mother.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life and understand that every animal deserves patience, love, and individualized attention. I currently care for four of my own pets: Oliver, my 2-year-old orange cat; Rein, my 11-year-old Black Labrador mix; Nala, my 4-year-old Goldendoodle; and Tobias, my 7-month-old Shepherd-Bulldog mix. Caring for pets at every stage of life has given me hands-on experience with energetic puppies, active adult dogs, and senior dogs who require extra patience and gentle care. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, as well as cats, which hold a special place in my heart. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply needs a calm and reliable companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love, care, and attention that I give my own. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while giving owners complete peace of mind. Pet care fits well into my current schedule because I’m in the process of becoming a law enforcement officer and am looking for flexible work while I complete interviews, written exams, physical testing, and other hiring requirements. This allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available on weekdays, evenings, and weekends with advance notice, and I make it a priority to communicate clearly about my availability. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I’ll provide dependable, attentive service and treat them like one of my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I take the time to learn their routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions so they experience as little disruption as possible. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and affection while maintaining a clean and safe environment. I always keep dogs securely leashed during walks unless they’re in a safely enclosed area, and I make sure pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were a member of my own family.
“Connie was amazing! She was able to sit on relatively short notice, clear communication, adapted to my cats’ typical schedules, and took great care of them and my apartment for the 2 weeks while I was gone. Will definitely book again!”
“Nathalie looked after our two pups for a month and house-sat for us over the holidays. She did an excellent job, we received regular updates, both pups were very well looked after and the house also immaculate when we returned. Thank you and we definitely recommend!”
About: My hands-on experience as a former dog rescuer and PetSmart employee sets me apart. Being a dog rescuer has given me the skills to confidently care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During my time as a rescuer, I learned not only how to feed them and play with them, but also administer medicine and bathe them when necessary. As a pet care associate and cashier at PetSmart, I worked with multiple types of dogs and their pet parents to ensure they would get the best products and services. Because of my dedication to the well-being of dogs at PetSmart, I was offered an opportunity to be trained for a dog trainer position, but I had to reject it since I was moving out of state for college. Now, I’m back in Miami and ready to make your dog feel at home, even if you’re away. I’m a college student currently in Miami for summer and on a really flexible schedule, so I’m willing to dedicate lots of time to your dog. I will adapt to your dog’s necessities, whether they need going on long walks and playing at the park, or cuddles and quiet time. I believe that dogs are important members of the family and deserve to be treated as such.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brownsville
Here’s a warm, genuine 5-star review you can leave for Victoria was absolutely amazing with our dog, Leyla! She took excellent care of her, gave us regular updates, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Leyla and treated her like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Victoria is reliable, kind, professional, and truly loves animals. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and we will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much, Victoria! 🐾❤️
Blas was very responsive and knowledgeable about pet care. He kept great care of our dog and cat, provided lots of updates, and went beyond our expectations with cleaning up upon his departure (ie had already sanitized sheets and washed towels). We would recommend Blas for pet sitting services for anyone in the Miami area.
Phillip is a fantastic house and cat sitter. As a cat parent himself, he understands their needs and genuinely cares that your pet is healthy and happy while you’re away. He sent us regular updates with pictures, and I could tell our cat Hugo felt comfortable with him right away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and the outside kitty, and for treating our home with respect as well!
Keira is amazing! She was so kind and accommodating while taking care of my pup and apartment while we were away for the holidays. She was very communicative and I knew that everything was taken care of while we were done. Will definitely use her again in the future!❤️
I reached out to Jose Gabriel very last minute and he was willing to help me out in a pinch. He was very responsive, followed the instructions I left for him, and sent me lots of updates. I will definitely be using his services in the future. I am so grateful for his help!
Valeria house-sat for me for a few days and exceeded all expectations. She clearly spent quality time with both my dog and cat, giving them the attention and care they needed while I was away. Her communication was outstanding throughout the stay. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me such peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. The dog walks were consistent, and it was obvious she genuinely cared for my pets’ wellbeing. Valeria is incredibly friendly, responsible, and professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other pet parents, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you, Valeria, for taking such wonderful care of my fur babies!

FAQs for House Sitting - Brownsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brownsville on Rover is $39.15 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,062 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brownsville. 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 Brownsville 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 Brownsville 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 Brownsville 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brownsville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
