Stacey was amazing! Our baby has pretty high energy and he was having a really hard time the first day but she had so much patience with him & kept working with him to make him feel more comfortable. She even did daily check ins with me. We will definitely be using her again! :)

I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!

Tasha was amazing! She took great care of our pets while we were out of town for a week. It took a lot for us to trust someone to stay at our house with our pets and I am glad we gave her a chance. We came home to happy animals and the house exactly as we left it. She also sent daily pictures to keep us updated. 100% would recommend, she loves animals and will be great with your pets 😊

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog and recently became a dog owner myself, and I quickly realized just how much joy, comfort, and companionship they bring into our lives. I’m completely obsessed with my own pup and know firsthand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable when you can’t be there. There was a time when I needed someone to help care for my pup, and I remember how much that support meant to me. Now, I’d love to be that person for other pet parents. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and affection I’d want for my own. I’m excited to get to know each pup’s unique personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾 With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pup the walks, attention, and love they deserve! 🐾 I know how much peace of mind it brings to have someone you trust care for your dog, and I’d love to be that person for you and your pup. My pup is crate-trained and has his own comfortable space for when I’m not home, but otherwise he’s free to roam around the house as he pleases. We also have a backyard where he can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and explore. I want any dog staying with us to feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through dog sitting and training. I provide a safe, caring, and comfortable environment while making sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and positive interaction. I’m also experienced with basic training, including commands, leash manners, routines, and positive reinforcement. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have flexible availability for dog sitting throughout my daily schedule. I can work around your needs and provide care, walks, playtime, and attention while you’re at work, running errands, or away for the day. I can provide reliable and loving care for your dogs while you’re away or at work. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, food, fresh water, and bathroom breaks while keeping them safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.

Riley took care of my fur babies really well. They were happy boys when I left and still happy boys when I got back. I was missing them but Riley was constantly sending pictures of their happy faces and made my heart full every time. Thank you Riley for taking care of my boys and my house. Hope to use your services again next time!!

Lexi is one of the best sitters out there! You can tell she is passionate for animals and treats them as her own. She was so great at communicating with us and is very responsive. We received a video update on our pups as well. The house was left in the same shape we left it in. Very kind, sweet, and caring girl!

Miranda took great care of our dogs and bunnies! She communicated with daily reports while we were gone. She went above and beyond to keep our house neat and tidy. As a first time Rover customer this was a great first experience. I would rebook with Miranda in the future, and recommend her to others.

Abbigail was great for our two dogs! We had never used this service before and were a bit nervous. She met us and our dogs before we left and she did a wonderful job with them while we were away. It was so much better for us to allow them to stay home with her than to transport them somewhere else while we were away. We will definitely book again in the future! Thanks, Abbigail!

We are always scared to leave our dog with a stranger, but Sammy did great!! She updated me each time she went over and sat with him for a while so he wasn’t alone for so long. Will definitely book again in the future!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.

Marek stepped up to the plate and accepted a last minute day care request. My dog had a riotous day playing with his dogs and got more than his share of exercise. Marek's rates are very low and don't reflect the care that he gave to my grateful pet.

Cali did an amazing job with our (high-maintenanced) shiba inu! She was very communicative throughout the entire time she was house sitting for us, which made it easier to be away from our sweet pup knowing she was in good hands! We even came home to a very clean house! She will definitely be the first person we call next time we need a sitter!

Alexis was a great help. She was able to step in a week before our trip. She worked well with all three of our dogs. She was responsive with updates, and I appreciated her spending lots of time at the house so that the dogs got more social time with someone.

FAQs for House Sitting - Briarwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Briarwood on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,060 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Briarwood. 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 Briarwood 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 Briarwood 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 Briarwood 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Briarwood. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
