“Really enjoyed seeing photos of the doggos getting to play while we were out of time! Such a relief knowing they were getting love and attention. Very prompt responses, especially given how last minute I booked! Thanks again! Will definitely reach out on future needs.”

About: I believe I have always been reliable to be on call to take care of and walk family friends dogs since high school. Everyone gets busy and it’s important to have someone who’s always available. Hi! I currently work part-time at a clinic and attend college courses, I maintain a structured weekly schedule. Because of this, I’m very organized and plan my bookings carefully to ensure every pet gets my full attention. I’m available during designated time blocks throughout the week and always communicate clearly about availability. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I prioritize reliability and consistency. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and maintain their normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure food and water are refreshed, walks are completed safely, and pets receive attention, enrichment, and supervision appropriate for their energy level. I’m mindful of home security, always double check doors and gates, and keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals of all kind since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, family, and friends have trusted me to pet sit, play, walk, feed, give medication, and care for their animals throughout the years. I was raised with cats, dogs, and other animals my entire life and I now have 2 high energy spoiled dogs of my own. I just recently relocated to the area and became a stay at home dog mom. My availability is very open and flexible. I want to extend my love and care to your pets so that you don’t have to worry. I have pet sit multiple times making sure to show the pet love and attention, making sure food and water is available to them and if the pet is in need of medication I also have experience in how to safely and calmly administer the medication. I am also experienced in crating animals. I take my own dogs on daily walks. I work with them on not pulling, allowing them plenty of time to sniff and keep my head on a swivel of other people, animals, or anything that could be a trigger to them. I have experiences with dogs that may be more on the shy and introverted side, I work to encouraging them and show them that the world is not so scary.

Julissa was communicative and took such great care of our babies. I would highly recommend her and will absolutely be booking her again. She is kind and it’s obvious that not only cares for pets but goes above and beyond to make them comfortable and keep them happy and safe.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Brownsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Brownsville is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 111 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Brownsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brownsville. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
