“I was only gone for two nights, but I could tell Emmanuelle loved my fur babies like they were her own. I got lots of pictures and text updates, and she was always responsive when I reached out. I will absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have been watching family and friends animals since I was 12. Always my passion, I have spent walking shelter dogs for Regional Animal Shelter of King County, which fed my soul. I love animals and I will go above and beyond so that your fur baby feels all of your love when you're gone. I don’t work at all so I’m available just about anytime. I would have my son with me. I pick up my other son from school around 11:40 so in between that and after I’m available. I live in a double wide trailer with lots of space and a beautiful big yard. I could also crate them if needed. My kids are very gental with dogs as well and they love to play!
“Cessily is great. We have used her multiple times, and our dogs love her. She is great at communicating with us and responsible. It’s nice to know our dogs are taken care of while we are away.”
“I wasn't quite sure what to expect with Keleia. She barely said 3 words at our meet-n-greet, so I was a little nervous! But I am very happy I still booked! She was a fantastic communicator over text and always told me when she needed to pop out and was on her way back. She also sent pictures as I asked and my dog looked healthy and content in them. When I arrived home, she had run the dishwasher and changed the bedsheets as I asked, and the house was nice and tidy. My dog also was in good spirits and didn't seem overly relieved I was home after my short absence, so I think he had a great time with her. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Taylor looked after our three furry hooligans while we took a trip out of state. She was kind, responsive, and always kept us updated with pictures of pups, who were happy and well taken when we got back. Would absolutely recommend to others and would love to have her watch our dogs again.”
“We could not have asked for better care. It was immediately clear that Russ was attentive to all our pets' needs, and he communicated every step of the way with such thoughtfulness about the details that it's obvious he's not only an animal lover but an all-around compassionate person. We had such a tall order to fill — in particular, it included care for a frail senior dog who required constant supervision over long days. It was such a comfort to know he was in Russ's calm, capable hands, ready for whatever snags came along. This was Russ's first booking but he is clearly a ready professional.”
“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. Megan went above and beyond for our pups and we are so grateful to her for showering our pups with love while we were away. Great communication, left the house spotless, and sent pictures every day. We will definitely contact her again for any future needs.”
“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”
“Cara was so considerate and amazing when our original sitter cancelled last minute. I really appreciate it - she went above and beyond for us and Luna. Thank you and we’d love to book again!”
About: I have been pet sitting professionally for three years. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks and lizards. I am comfortable working with dogs of all sizes from 130+ lb livestock guardian breeds to 5 lb chihuahuas. I have experience working with dogs with behavioral challenges like resource guarding and anxiety. I have over three years of experience with positive reinforcement training and I am currently working on a certification program to become a horse trainer. I would love to keep up your dog's training while you are gone and work with you to support any current training or management plans. I am patient and I love to work with puppies (and kittens) and adolescent dogs. I have 9 years of experience volunteering at a horse barn. I am comfortable working with horses and other livestock animals. I have experience giving oral medication and all the day to day care a horse requires. I am currently pet sitting full time. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate your pet's needs and routine. Let me know how much alone time your pet is comfortable with. I always follow instructions and management plans to the letter. I don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or clarifications as needed. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority.
“Halston was fantastic! He followed every single instruction I left for my dog and made sure he stayed on his routine, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. His communication was excellent. He sent regular updates with photos and videos, so I always knew how my pup was doing. Most importantly, it was clear how much he truly cared for my dog. When I came home, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I will absolutely be booking again. Thank you so much!”
“Olivia is a gem. It’s such a gift to find a pet sitter that is very communicative, considerate, thoughtful, and trustworthy. Olivia was proactive with our pets and asked us really good questions to ensure all their needs were met. She was wonderful with her updates and photos. Our pets just loved her! We highly recommend her pet care and we will be booking again!”
“Kaya is a calm, quiet, and sweet person. She made herself available on a last minute request. She was on time, and Zion liked her right away. Kaya followed instructions, and sent us a pic and updates on how he was doing. I would definitely request Kaya again.”
“Tina was absolutely phenomenal with my energetic 2 yo. She took Saoirse on wonderful walks at Point Defiance and Sehmel Homestead Park, kept her happy and engaged, and made sure Saoirse had the perfect mix of exercise, care, love, attention, and joy. The regulare photos and videos were absolutely delightful to receive (and share :). Tina’s updates, attention to detail, kindness, and genuine love for dogs shine through in everything she does. According to Saoirse, Tina deserves a thousand stars — and I couldn’t agree more. Thank you for taking amazing care of my sweet girl!”
“Mackenzie was very prompt with her responses and saved me in a pinch to give them a potty break while I was at work. For the overnights I appreciated her enthusiasm and communication throughout the stay. She provided daily updates and was happy to send more whenever I wanted, which I really appreciated. She also made a good effort to keep the dogs’ routine as consistent as possible, and I could tell she genuinely wanted to do a good job caring for them. One of the dogs happened to get into a few things, including the TV remote but this wasn't his first remote to destroy. Overall, I appreciated her effort and care, and I would use her again. I think clarifying the dogs behavior beforehand about a few of these things would help ensure an even smoother experience next time! I would definitely recommend Mackenzie to care for your fur babies!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Burley is $70 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $51 and $78 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Burley 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 Burley 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 Burley 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.
