“Brittany was a great communicator throughout her stay and the days leading up to her stay. I was able to share last-minute directions, she was quick to respond, and did a great job of caring for the dogs and my home during some rainy messy days.”
“Tabbatha watched our two dogs for two weeks in our home and she was truly amazing! It was clear that she really cared about our dogs and she went above and beyond for them, including sending lots of pictures of how they were doing! She was also flexible enough to stay an extra night when we had unexpected travel issues. Overall, we highly recommend Tabbatha!”
“Anastasia was a dream dog sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our young puppy was well cared for. She stayed in consistent communication and we were at ease knowing Mochi was in great hands. She left the house extremely clean. She even stayed longer than planned due to a big winter storm that pushed our flights back. We could not recommend Anastasia enough.”
“Willow is so sweet and loving to my baby Afi! She loves animals so much. Super easy to work with & communicative. I give her a shared note on my phone with directions and she follows them thoroughly. I’ll be booking Willow again!”
“Kayla was wonderful with my dog (and Guinea Pigs), and very easy to communicate with about the pet sitting. It was clear she took great care of my dog while we were gone. He was in such great spirits once we returned. Also, I loved how she sent pictures of him (and the Guinea pigs) throughout the time I was gone, showing him happy and being a good boy. Kayla’s pet sitting was very reasonably priced too. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Courtney was amazing with my cats. She was very attentive to them and kept me updated everyday on their wellbeing. It was a great comfort to know they were well taken care of as I do not leave them often. Thank you so much Courtney for loving on them so well!”
“Mia accepted a last minute 5 day stay after another rover sitter cancelled 30hrs before the start of our booking. She was so kind to make a meet and greet work same day. She took great care of Clyde, sent photos and was proactive and promptly responsive with her communication while we were gone, and left our house in great condition — washed our sheets, took out the trash, 0 dirty dishes. 10/10 recommend her for not only great dependable care but also being a lifesaver so last minute. Thank you, Mia!!!”
About: I have a lot of experience caring for pets, including overnight stays, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own home and making sure they stay on their normal routine while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and will make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. My most open days are Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine, keep their space clean and secure, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m respectful of your home and will treat it as if it were my own. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: DOGS WITHOUT LOVE ARE LIKE HUMANS WITHOUT PURPOSE! I absolutely love dogs. I have a thirteen year old miniature Australian Shepard who thinks he is my third child and is treated as such. I am 47 years old and have a rewarding career in plastic/reconstructive surgery, but also realize that caring for fur babies is yet another true passion in which I truly enjoy! Fur babies need lots of love and attention as well as activity through play dates, park time, hiking, walking swimming etc. Additional Services Include: Groomer drop off and pick up, vet visit transportation and attendance, medication administration and bathing are also offered. I am also available for meet and greets preceding scheduled services. I am available on nights, weekends and holidays. I DO NOT board more than one family’s dogs at a time. Therefore, you do not have to worry about safety. It is in the best interest of your fur baby to not be exposed to others in which could result in physical injury and or harm and or contagious illnesses. Rest assured, your fur babies are completely safe with me. Pictures and reports of your fur babies are sent to you on a daily basis! Fur babies should feel loved and cared for in the absence of their owners much like a doggie vaca! An experienced pet sitter that you can get to know, trust and feel comfortable with whom is much like family is a necessity! I work in the medical field and have the ability to adjust my flexible schedule to accommodate my pet clients needs and or requests on a client to client basis. At the present time-I am not offering boarding services in my home. I believe pets feel more comfortable and at ease in their own homes where they are familiar with their surroundings and specific care instructions will vary per client request which is discussed during our meet and greet session.
“We could not have asked for a better person to stay at our home and care for our “kids”. Bella and Opie were both so comfortable with Robin from first visit. We received daily pictures and videos of them and could see they were very happy and being taken care of. Not only did Robin care for our pets as her own, she also cared for our home as her own. There were so issues with our AC unit and she handled it, including having a repair technician come in. Cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% be using her again in the future!!”
About: Whether your furry friend is a standoffish cat, a hyper dog, or an opera-singing bird, I am the capable caretaker you can trust to suit their needs and make them feel safe + loved! My schedule as a pet sitter is open to any client! On a trip to see family? Only gone for an hour or two? No problem! I can come over day or night. Whatever your animal needs, I can provide! I do not currently board at my own home, but am available to sit/walk your pet in your area.
“Kate was incredible ! Always provided updates and photos and communicates really well. She also may have left our place cleaner than it was when we left! She’s awesome! Highly recommend!!”
“Gayle cared for our pup like she was her own! She was super respectful of our home and kept it tidy and clean for our return. I would recommend Gayle to anyone!”
“Kaylin is a special soul and one of very few sitters I trust my home and pets with! She was a fantastic communicator and took exceptional care of everything. She went far above and beyond!! I feel so lucky to have been able to meet her and look forward to many repeat visits in the future. She is a ROCKSTAR :-D”
“Jessica always takes good care of my boys Bennie and Maxx. They are both on meds and she always makes sure they get their dose when needed. She is dependable and my boys look forward to her visits.”
“Krista was very professional and understanding of my dog’s needs while sitting him. She kept me informed which made me feel comforted that he was in good hands while I was gone. She was the perfect snuggle partner for my dog while I was gone!”
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover, mom, yoga teacher, and all-around outdoor enthusiast who would love to help care for your furry family members! From big personalities to shy or sensitive animals, I'm comfortable with a variety of temperaments and love getting to know each animal's unique personality. I'm active, energetic, and love a good walk, run, or play session! Whether your pup or kitty needs an adventure buddy, some afternoon company, a drop-in visit, or a cozy place to stay, I'm happy to help. I also offer in-home visits and am comfortable administering medications, including injections. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else's care. I'll follow your instructions, respect your routines, and treat your home and animals with care. Expect plenty of adorable photo and video updates because I know how much we all love seeing our babies while we're away! Services include: Dog walking and exercise Drop-in visits and playtime In-home pet sitting Boarding for up to one week Medication administration, including injections Care for dogs, cats, and other animals by arrangement My flexible yoga schedule lets me stay mobile during the day and on weekends. I currently have no pets, so I'd be honored to care for yours. I have a large fenced yard and close access to running trails. I live on the back half of a duplex away from the road, which is nice. I have an Outback and after the damage my kids have done could care less if it gets dirty. When I was a nanny I often took the kids to school and then all three of their labs to the off leash trail to go get muddy - then to the groomers.
About: 10 years experience pet sitting professionally and have owned and cared for dogs for many more years. I’m home full time to make sure your pet gets plenty of love and attention. I have a chihuahua mix and a heeler mix at home. I have a large fenced yard and dogs have free rein in the house. My friendly pups are getting older so they usually just relax but will be interested in playing every now and then. I'm available on short notice so please don't hesitate to send me a request and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Beagles, chihuahuas, Australian cattle dogs and labradors have an extra special place in my heart but I love all pups! *I require up to date shots and that your pet is on preventative heartworm meds* Thank you for stopping by! 😊 🐕 🐕 I can let your dog outside first thing in the morning and then will separate the dogs so they all can have breakfast. They can have as many potty breaks throughout the day as they need since I work from home. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly, energetic girls to keep your dog company. I work from home and love to give my boarders lots of attention. I generally don't feed people food or allow dogs to jump up on their humans (but they are fine to lay on my couch 🙂 ).
“I couldn't have asked for a better home for my mini Aussies, Sydney and April. The yard was big and the house was super clean. Tricia and her husband loved my dogs like they were their own. Even let them sleep on the bed. They came home all happy and healthy. I highly recommend Tricia for any of your pet needs. Will definitely use again. Laura”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Briarcliff
Brittany was amazing! She is a great communicator, sends awesome pictures (better than any I've been able to take of our dog), and is very reliable. This was the first time we've left our puppy with a dogsitter and Brittany took great care of her. She is conscientious about not leaving her charges alone for too long and giving them all the attention they want. She's also a great house guest - everything is clean and neat!
Vanessa was wonderful with our two fur babies. Our 1 year old Basset Hound is very timid with new people, however she quickly warmed up to Vanessa. Vanessa stayed in communication with us throughout our time away, sending regular updates and photos of our pups. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were well cared for and loved while we were gone. We truly appreciated her thoughtfulness and highly recommend her!
We valued the responsiveness of Meg to the needs of our pets. She demonstrated her ability to adapt to one dog having several days of stomach issues and a bit more snow around the house than we had expected. She sent pictures daily, which we appreciated and gave us a summary of the week in a hand written note, which was helpful for us as well. Thank you for the snuggle time with the pups as well, Meg!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Briarcliff is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $91 per night. 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 November 2026, there are 4,433 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Briarcliff. 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 Briarcliff 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 Briarcliff 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 Briarcliff 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Briarcliff. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
