“Lila was a great sitter for Minnie. My very anxious “baby” took to Lila very quickly and that is not her norm, so I felt very comfortable leaving them together. Lila communicated and kept in touch well. She was very respectful of my home and even left a cute doggie thank you note. Minnie seemed to love her and I know this because often when I get home Minnie us sitting by the door waiting. She was sleeping in the living room and much calmer than my usual returns. I recommend Lila as responsive, responsible, and respectful. Thank you!!!”
“Deseray did a great job house sitting with our dog and cat. She communicated frequently, sent lots of pictures, and left the house in great shape. At the meet and great and through photos while we were gone it was clear she connected with and cared well for our pets.”
“Elated to have found Paulette. Meet and greet showed us a kind, warm person and our pets were instantly comfortable with her. Regular updates while we were away helped ease our anxiety and Paulette was kind enough to send photos on request when we were missing our babies. Came back to a clean house and very happy and content fur babies. Looking forward to our next booking.”
“We seriously could not have asked for a better dog sitter for Archie. Meaghon took amazing care of him while we were away and gave us complete peace of mind the entire trip. Communication was excellent with updates, photos, and check ins that made it so easy to relax knowing Archie was in such good hands. When we came home we could immediately tell Archie was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell Meaghon genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. She was professional, reliable, and incredibly easy to work with. We were so impressed that we have already rebooked with her again. Highly recommend Meaghon to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing to care for their pets!”
“Kristen is amazing! Punctual, friendly, calm. Great communication. Best of all, Teddy seemed to love her and be extremely comfortable with her. It was the fastest I have ever seen him settle down with someone even with meds. Will definitely be booking with Kristen again when someone is needed. Thank you!”
“Amanda was great! She was very responsive and responsible, and even jumped in during a pinch when we needed someone on short notice. Our super anxious pups (including our 85lb boxer) warmed up to her very quickly and we could tell they had a great time when we got home. We will definitely have Amanda back at our home to stay with our fur babies and recommend her for your sitting needs.”
“Erinn is the best! We have two senior dogs, one with special needs after having IVDD surgery, and when we came back from our little trip they were happy as ever. She’s knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly good with the pups. I’ve never seen them so at ease with a stranger. We’ll be booking her again soon!”
“Toysa is an enthusiastic and positive dog lover. Our two mini-dachshunds love her and she is patient as they jump all over her and attack her with kisses! Our home was neat and well cared for, and she did more than we asked her to! She responds quickly, sent pics, and our dogs were happy and healthy on our return. Definitely recommend Toysa!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience taking care of both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for pets in the past, so I understand how important it is to provide them with love, patience, attention, and a safe environment. I’m also a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat, which has given me years of experience understanding a cat’s needs, personality, and daily routine. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, providing companionship, or giving extra cuddles, I enjoy making pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your furry family member receives the best possible care. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my priority. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for my family’s dog and my friends’ pets, along with being a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat. I’m familiar with daily feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾❤️ I prefer pet sitting in your home because I believe pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment. Staying in their own home allows them to maintain their routines and feel less stressed while you’re away. I respect each pet’s boundaries, pay attention to their body language, and let them approach me at their own pace. I believe animals deserve the same kindness, patience, and respect as humans. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and loved, just as I would want someone to care for my own 6-year-old cat. 🐾❤️
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring dog sitter who truly loves spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping your pup company while you’re away, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. i just joined Rover, but I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience volunteering and caring for animals, so I understand how important routine, attention, and trust are when it comes to pet care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, with patience, structure, and lots of affection. I work full time during the week, but I always make time in my schedule to provide reliable care for pets. I plan ahead to ensure I can give each dog the attention, walks, and care they need, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends. I’m committed to being dependable and making sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow all feeding instructions, walk schedules, and any special care needs, including medications if required. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship so the pet doesn’t feel alone while their owner is away. I treat each home with respect and keep everything clean and tidy, and I always provide updates with photos so owners can feel confident their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pet and the owner.
“Morgan is a fantastic pet sitter! I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog and cat were in the best hands. Her communication was perfect, from coordinating a meet and greet through the end of sitting. She followed my pet's routines and gave them tons of love and attention, I highly recommend her! She also sent me pictures and video updates which were super appreciated.”
About: My whole life as long as I remember I was the biggest pet lover. I had my own pets and I’ve taken care and walked the dogs of my neighborhood. I just love them. I work part time, which gives me a lot of time to do my favorite thing: pet sitting!!! I work part time and have a lot of time for my favorite hobby which is caring for these lovely creatures. I have a fenced in yard and I love walking in the woods with the doggies. I have a fenced in yard and I walk the dogs three times a day. My 2 lovely dogs will keep your dogs company. I will make sure they are spoiled.
“Julie was once again wonderful with my crazy pups. She takes the extra time to ensure their comfort and safety. Bubba was much more comfortable with her for this visit and I truly appreciate her slow and steady approach with him. And Nala was thrilled to have a willing snuggle buddy!”
About: Ive bred and took care of newborn puppies. And the long term care the mother needed after birth. Helped keep her happy for the remainder of her life. Bathed and groomed more times than i can remember. Trained for practicality and for tricks! I volunteer in my town a lot. I am an assistant coach and i am about to be voted onto a town committee for the rail trail in our town. Also a full time care giver for my mother but i could have help with that if needed. A nice big open area to walk around in leashed.. and a big ole park (grenville park) just minutes away walking distance. Big apartment complex
“Keshia was great! My dogs loved playing with her and told us that we should go away more often. On time and our dogs were extremely happy and slept all night with out needing to go out. We were very pleased to have Keshia as oidog sitter.”
“Lilly took great care of our pets and our home during our vacation. There was a blizzard that came through the area while she was sitting with us, she kept us informed and comforted that she was on top of things. We were concerned that she might have difficulties if we lost power, etc. but she was very assuring that she had everything under control. She even shoveled our front steps before we got home! Anakin and Lily obviously liked her, they were content and happy when we returned. We will definitely want to have her again if need be. Thank you Lilly!”
“Amy took very good care of my two cats. She sends pictures to me everyday which is a blessing, knowing that the kitties are doing good. She is very responsive and easy to communicate. Would recommend to everyone in need a kitty friend.”
About: I have had pets in my life since I was a baby. We have enjoyed a lab, standard poodle and currently a mini cocker spaniel poodle mix. I love getting outside and being active with pets. I am at home with my daughter most of the time and I enjoy doing side hustles like selling vintage clothing online and seeking out antiques. We get outside with our dog, Carl often and would love to get a chance to offer outside time and love to other pets on Rover too! I always approach pets slowly with care and love. They feel our energy big time and have so much to share with us when we give them the chance.

Jenna was awesome! It was the first time leaving our pup for the night and I missed him as soon as I left but Jenna sent a picture right away of her and him playing outside together. He looked so happy and it made me feel so much better! Throughout the night she continued to send me several pictures and keep me updated on how he was doing. I highly recommend booking with Jenna!
Ashley did a fabulous job taking care of my dog Shelby. She is warm, communicative, and trustworthy. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my little friend and my house were in safe hands while I was away. Thank you, Ashley! Will definitely work with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,313 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Brookfield. 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 East Brookfield 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 East Brookfield 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 East Brookfield 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.
