“We absolutely love Tawny taking care of our Pearl! She and her daughter spent a week here and we loved seeing the two become the best of friends! Tawny makes sure to take care of your place - to include laundry, dishes, trash, even cleaning it up before we arrived home - all without being expected of her. She really does go above and beyond and she will be our forever fur babysitter! Pearl adores her and her daughter so that’s obviously a huge bonus!”

About: I am currently a dog mom of 2 looking to help care for your pup! I am well-versed in dog training and can work on things that you might be working on at home. I raised my pup from 8 weeks old and she is currently 2, however my mom rescues/fosters senior dogs so I am familiar with them as well. I feel comfortable with dogs of all sizes. As a dog mom myself, I know how stressful it can be to find a place you feel comfortable leaving your pup. I want to be that place for you! I am a teacher on break for the summer. I am working a few hours of summer school each day. You can ensure that your pup will get plenty of walks and playtime outside of my working hours. I know how important normalcy and routines are, so I strive to make your pups stay as comfortable as possible. Whatever routines and rules are in place at their own home I would try to keep in place!
“Ryan was an amazing dog sitter! He was attentive, caring, and kept great communication throughout. My dogs were very comfortable with him, and I felt completely at ease while away. I’d definitely book with him again!”
“We were in need of a sitter on short notice and we are so glad to have met Beth Ann thru Rover! While away she sent pics and kept us informed of how he was doing. Just two days before we were to leave, Cruz had injured his paw! We called Beth Ann to let her know what else would be involved with her stay with Cruz. She reassured us she’d be just fine with giving him the meds, the cone he’d have to wear and extra care he may need with this injury! This was so comforting to hear just days before leaving him for the weekend! Beth Ann pulled thru yet again when our flight home was delayed unexpectedly a day! Very happy with Beth Ann’s care for our “Cruzie bear” and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Katie is amazing. My persnickety and aloof Shiba Inu has warmed right up to her in record time. I know Milo is super well cared for and content when Katie is watching him. I do not stress about how Milo is doing. That is a huge!”

About: My family and I are Christians. I was making plans to get my son a dog once he started working this summer. His big sister, who is now 20, worked at Ripleys Aquarium before she joined the Airforce a year ago. He wants a job there this summer just so he can learn more about animals. He is a natural around dogs and other animals. He is an honor role student who wants to be a vet one day. While I was out walking in my neighborhood, I ran into a sweet lady who told us about Rover.com. I thought how perfect is that. We get the love and warmth of a dog, and I will be able to teach my beloved son about responsibility and helping others. Your dog will get the love and care that you would expect and will be completely safe with us. The last dog I owned was a Staffordshire Terrier. We loved him. His resting place is in my home Bermuda.

FAQs for House Sitting - Briarcliffe Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Briarcliffe Acres on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 425 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Briarcliffe Acres. 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 Briarcliffe Acres 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 Briarcliffe Acres 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 Briarcliffe Acres 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
