“Brittany was so great! Very easy to communicate with and helped me out with a last minute booking. Took great pictures and made sure my pup was given lots of love.”
“Lucia was amazing! Very reliable and professional, and went above and beyond to send us great photos and videos of our cats while we were out of town. We felt great knowing they were in such good hands!”
“Hiccup and Echo enthusiastically recommend Jennifer to be a pet sitter for your fur babies. We looked forward to when she would arrive to feed us and have a some playtime. We really appreciated that she made our humans feel less anxious and have the ability enjoy their trip knowing we were taken care of. Once again, we highly recommend Jennifer for any of your pet sitting needs.”
About: I aim for personalized, low-volume care with an emphasis on giving each dog the attention, activity, and routine they’re used to. For daycare, I intentionally accept only 2 guest dogs at a time. This provides a calmer alternative to high-volume daycare while still giving dogs plenty of opportunity to play, explore, and socialize. For drop-in visits, I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home and tailor each visit to their normal routine. Whether they need a potty break, feeding, medication, playtime, attention, or simply some company, I’m happy to adjust the visit to what works best for them. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including high-energy and strong-willed breeds Dogs have always been family to me. I’ve had my own for 8+ years, have long been the trusted sitter for friends and family, foster and volunteer with shelter dogs. I work from home, which gives me flexibility throughout the day for both daycare and drop-in visits. When dogs are in my care, I prioritize my schedule around their needs rather than trying to fit every dog into the same routine. For daycare: We live on 2+ fully fenced private acres in Spicewood with a 5-ft fence. Dogs have plenty of secure space to sniff, explore, play, and get their energy out. This is natural Central Texas acreage rather than a paved commercial play yard, so outdoor activity is always adjusted for weather, temperature, terrain, and the individual dog. My two resident dogs are well-socialized and enjoy playing when invited but also respect another dog’s space. Guest interactions are supervised, and dogs are never forced to play. For drop-ins: Drop-in visits can be as active or relaxed as your dog needs. For high-energy dogs, I’m happy to spend the visit focused on movement, play, enrichment, and helping them burn off some energy rather than simply providing a quick potty break. For lower-energy pets, I can keep things relaxed with feeding, potty breaks, medication, attention, and companionship. I follow your instructions and household routine closely so your pets can remain comfortable in their own environment.

About: I grew up on a farm and always had animals with me, I've taken care of animals my whole. From ducks to dogs!! My life is animals. I'm currently working PT so I have lots of free time after and before work and on weekends I don't work at all! Very open! I love dogs and cats and will care for them if they are or aren't mine!

About: Ive head pets my whole life and I am also a mom so I have a lot of patience dealing with teaching and watching over others. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I can watch pets at any time.

About: I grew up with several dogs and cats in the family home. I have raised and trained a Doberman, so I know what it takes to teach them obedience and the importance of consistency. I love animals so much, they bring me so much joy. Fun fact: when I was a little girl I wanted to be a veterinarian. I feel that I have a special connection with animals; they are usually naturally drawn to me. I didn’t pursue a career as a veterinarian because I had other interests. I currently don’t have any animals because I enjoy the flexibility. I would love to take care of your animals and treat them with extra special care. I am currently working part time and would have the time to care for your pet(s) after work or on my days off. I currently work a 2-3 days a week and am available by the afternoons on the days I am working. I typically pet sit in the owners home. I find that is more comfortable for them. I am not currently able to have pets where I live.
“Chealsea is so wonderful! My outdoor cat didn’t need as much tending to but with cold weather I definitely was glad she could get a look at her and make sure all was ok. Would book Chealsea again of course! Peace of mind with good check ins!”
“This is my second time booking Kayla to watch my dog, and she’s truly amazing! The first time I was out for vacation and booked Kayla to watch my dog overnight for a few days. She was the first River sitter I used, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She is incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs and gave him the right amount of love and cuddles. She cleaned my apartment and sent several updates on my puppy while I was away which made me feel so much better about being away from my dog. I booked her again for a drop in visit and will be booking again as needed! Can’t recommend enough!”
“Sam was incredible taking care of our atreven while we were away getting married and on our honeymoon! It was so much easier to enjoy knowing he was safe at home with Sam. We would love to book again for our next trip. 10/10 highly recommend”
About: I have taken care of animals ranging from horses all the way to puppies since I was a Sophomore in high school in my vet tech classes. I’m a full time stay at home mom, while my kiddos are at school three days a week, I still have three fluffies of my own I tend to. I have a large fenced backyard with a smaller fenced area to provide space between any and all dogs that may enjoy their privacy while taking care of business. Inside my home is also very pet friendly and we cater to all needs. Be it bathroom, toy and even treats.
About: Hi, my name is Chantel (37). I have been pet sitting exclusively through Trusted House Sitters since the beginning of 2025. Unfortunately I cannot share my profile link from that site here with you for you to read and see my reviews but if you reach out to me on here I can send you the link :) I am also a writer and coach with a flexible schedule and I work from home. I do not currently have pets of my own, I just watch other people's full time. I have an 11 year old son who is very tender hearted and loves animals (he sometimes cries if he sees a dead animal on the side of the road), and when he isn't with his dad he likes to tag along with me to take care of and play with pets. On a more personal level I love to read, go for walks in nature, listen to podcasts, Mediterranean cooking (all cooking really), farmers markets, road trips, pilates, gardening, and bringing beauty to my home life. I am not shy (I love learning about people and connecting in more intimate settings) but I am introverted and prefer 1:1 or smaller groups and I avoid big loud crowds. Non smoker, non drinker, non drug user. I have a very flexible schedule and plan to switch over from Trusted House Sitters to Rover more and use this platform as a main source of my work. My work is flexible and has always been easy to work pet care around that. I can care for most pets in your home. I am not boarding at this time. I can also stay overnight or not depending on what your needs and preferences are.
“Christina did a fantastic job taking care of my Great Pyrenees, Murphy. I could rest assured knowing my buddy was in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone and will be reaching out to her in the future.”
About: I'm a local Austinite who grew up always having a dog in the house and currently have three dogs who spend their days hiking through the greenbelt and exploring the great outdoors. I've had extensive experience dogsitting with dogs of all shapes and sizes and have no problem with multiple, long walks each day to make sure the dog is getting the appropriate amount of exercise. I have also volunteered many hours for Austin Pets Alive and fully support their mission to help the struggling animals in our city. Whether you have a big dog who needs to be tuckered out while you're away at work or a little pup who just needs to be let out and given some quality attention, I'd be happy to help!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I work from home and let my GSP run the apartment. She loves other dogs and the apartment complex dog park! I work from home so I am available 24/7. I am not usually gone for long periods of time and can be attentive to your pet majority of the time. Frequent potty breaks when needed. Park or walks around complex when needed. Any other attentive needs can be made upon request just let me know.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Briarcliff is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $38 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 November 2026, there are 7,302 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Briarcliff. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Briarcliff. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
