“Jake was great! My little puppy just loved him. She got so excited when he came to watch her and was just all about him. It made leaving for work much easier. Jake was very sweet and respectful. We definitely book with him again when we need a sitter!”
“Allie was an excellent sitter for my 2 year old German Shepherd Dog Hero! She was attentive to his needs, took him on regular walks multiple times a day, walked him to the Dog park down the road and let him run and play, and sent me regular updates and photos of their time together. Allie is detail oriented and will follow instructions to the letter. Her and Hero played so hard while she dog/house sat with one of his favorite toys that the squeaker broke out of it and she went out of her way to buy him a close replacement for it as well as a bag of treats which she absolutely didnt have to do but Hero and I appreciated very much! I would highly recommend Allie's services to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was uneasy at first having a stranger stay at my home to watch my dog, but after seeing how comfortable Hero was around her within minutes of meeting her it gave me some peace of mind and Allie is absolutely worthy of trust and your business. Thanks for all you did for Hero and I Allie and I wish you nothing but the best I'll definitely be in contact next time I need someone to help with Hero!”
“Michelle is such a calm and reassuring presence around dogs. She can read their body language and reacts exactly how the dog needs. I would be thrilled to have her watch my dog again.”
About: I’ve had three dogs of my own over the years, so I know firsthand that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, cuddly and calm, or a little shy at first. When your dog is in my care, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m attentive to their routines, love giving plenty of playtime and affection, and will treat your pup with the same care I would give my own. You can feel confident knowing your dog is getting both loving attention and dependable care while you’re away. Would love if dog(s) are getting treated regularly for fleas/ticks especially if coming into my home. I currently stay at home all day during the week so I would be able to give full attention to your pets needs. If they’re staying over the weekend I would accommodate my plans to be home while they’re in my care. Your pet(s) would have free range in my first floor apartment townhouse. There is a communal dog park that is walking distance I would take them to only if no one else was there. We have a private community that I would take them on walks throughout the day.
“This was our second time to use Chloe to watch our pups and she, once again, went above and beyond! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing Chloe was taking great care of our four legged family members.”
About: I have been in a dog family my whole life! Labs at my dads & many different rescues. Pittbulls, chihuahuas, and everything in between. There is not a puppy (all dogs are puppies to me lol 🐾🐕) that I have not found a bond with. I am respectful and loving to them, their parents and space. I have been walking dogs professionally for about 2 year now, with 300+ visits under my belt. For me personally, my world is my/all dogs, my/all children, myself/all women, and nature! We are out almost every day enjoying life and being of service to others. I would love to become fast friends with you and your pets! I'm currently working part-time at a women's shelter for domestic violence on the weekends. I am home with my daughter and my teenage son for the summer. I'm in and out of the house a couple times a day, doing dog walks or taking kids places. But my availability is widely open and pretty typical with a wonderful support system. I can usually make anything work. I have a fenced in yard with a wonderful dog door in our laundry room. They have an easy ramp to go in and out of our backyard, with 2 friendly dogs to hang out with our 12lbs lil boy, almost 2 years old and the most gentle mixed lab/shepard/collie, six years old sweet girl. Our yard is shady, with a lot of big trees, plenty of room to roam around! Plus our neighbor dogs are our best friends too.
“Kaylie is amazing and made sure to give lots of updates and photos. She was a fantastic sitter for my pup and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”
“Cassandra spent the last few nights with our pups at our house. When we got home, I could tell the dogs loved her. From the pictures she sent me you could tell they were happy and well loved on. Thanks Cassandra, Denver and Dakota look forward to seeing you next month.”
“Our dog loved Zoe! He was so happy to see her that he’d cry and lean on her. This speaks volumes to what a great job she did with him! I’d have her sit with him again and again! So lucky we found her!”
“Jeannie was absolutely amazing! She watched our three pups—Lulu, Whiskey, and Indie—and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She kept us updated with tons of photos and videos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Each of our dogs has their own personality, and Jeannie gave them all the love and attention they needed. It was clear she truly cared for them like they were her own. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs—and that’s the best feeling in the world! We would 100% book with Jeannie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for their pets. Thank you, Jeannie! P.S. she makes one heck of a banana blueberry muffin 😊”
“This was our first time using Rover, and finding someone to stay overnights with my pets. That was a really big deal for me. James has been amazing since the first time we talked. He took great care of my babies, my home and made my husband and I feel at ease. He was communicative, punctual and transparent. I would recommend James to anyone!”
“AnnaClaire did a fantastic job caring for our pup! She asked good questions, made time to drop in and meet our dog beforehand, took our advice for walks, and kept her fed and happy. The house was in perfect condition when we came home. We'd gladly have AnnaClaire back anytime!”
“Kendra was fantastic! She sent several updates and photos each day while I was gone and Tucker really enjoyed his cuddle and play time with her ❤️ I came home to a tidy home and happy pup! Tucker looks forward to hanging out with Kendra again!”
About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has multiple years of care experience. I have a puppy so I am aware of the special care needs they may have. I also specialize in cats. I am flexible when it comes to cancellations and care times. I work second shift so I am able to provide care in the mornings or late at night. Late night care does not bother me, as I am a night owl! I am able to board, however I would prefer cats or small dogs. In my spare time I love to exercise, so I would love to take your pup on a long walk! I love animals, so rest assured your friend will be in loving, caring hands when you are away! I work overnights, so I am able to provide care in the mornings, during the day, and in evenings. I am flexible when I need to be! I reside in an apartment and have a large, unfenced yard. Perfect for supervised playtime! I have 2 friendly cats that would love to keep your pet company.
“rebekah was very attentive and caring towards cream while respecting his boundaries, she is eager to help and very accommodating to my work needs. she is a great help and anyone would be lucky to have her services. :)”
“Christa was everything you could want in a petsitter…she communicated clearly and often, was professional with my husband and I, playful & loving with our dogs, and sent the most amazing photos of the animals while we were away. All this made it so much easier to enjoy our trip knowing our dogs (and chickens!) were well taken care of.”
About: I can show that I am committed to providing the best care for each pet by taking the time to get to know them. I am responsible. I can demonstrate experience by noting the breeds of animals you've cared for, any behavior challenges. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I am passionate about caring for animals. I am able to plan my schedule around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide consistent, loving care while keeping pet parents updated.🐾 I provide loving, reliable care for every pet as if they were my own. Depending on the service, I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure they have fresh water and a clean, safe environment. I am experienced with dogs and always pay close attention to their individual needs, personality, and comfort. I will also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel comfortable knowing their pet is being well cared for.🐾

Mandi did such a fantastic job with our 2 cats and senior dog (who often needs special attention and medication) while we were away. I could not recommend her services enough. She had excellent communication that made us feel at ease while on vacation. She will be the first person we will look to should we need a pet sitter in the future. Thank you again, Mandi! You’re an absolute delight!
Taylor was great! She gave lots of updates, and let me know immediately when my dog got into the Christmas candy I left on the floor (luckily he didn’t eat any yet!) She left the house exactly as we left it, and I would not hesitate to contact her first next time we go out of town!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Brunswick on Rover is $37 per night as of October 2026.

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 Brunswick 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 Brunswick 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 Brunswick 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.

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.
