“Tori stayed with our two dogs at our house for five days. She did an initial visit and met the dogs and we felt very comfortable with her! She was amazing!!!! Super attentive to ours babies, sent pictures, lots of walks and cuddles. She kept us updated and had regular communication. We all love Tori!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Mayra was so thorough with updates and photos while we were away from our pups. She kept us very informed during her stay and kept the dogs happy and exercised during our absence. Would definitely recommend her services!”
“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
“I was very nervous to hire a pet sitter for my 2 dogs and elderly cat that requires medication twice a day. Jessica did an amazing job keeping me updated multiple times followed all our normal schedule for meal times and walks. She was incredibly organized and my usually shy cat came out of her shell and showed her true sassy self. She even kept up with the barn cats doing a head count daily and even gaining their trust to pet them. I came home to a clean house and very settled animals. They were happy to have us home, but not in that frantic traumatized way they have been with pet sitters in the past. I would highly recommend Jessica and will definitely us her in the future.”
About: I have been a long time animal owner including dogs and cats from all ages. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled animals. I’m an all around animal person who also has experience with caring for exotic reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatic animals. I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care. I have had dogs of all sizes and age throughout my life and also currently have dogs and cats of my own. I take dogs out to exercise twice a day and have a spacious home with animal friends for your companion’s stay. Please let me know if you are interested! Pet care is my top priority and only focus. I’m not balancing this with other jobs. Caring for animals is what I love and what I do full-time. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.
About: Grew up with goldens, it’s a relationship unlike any other. I’m grateful to care for your furry loved ones. I work remotely, and happy to be as present as you prefer. Let me know how can I be of service :) I write + meditate early in the morning. Work independently so I’m happy to be flexible with specific requests you may have. Early to bed - early to rise. I am not able to offer house sitting at my home at this time. But I feel this is best to maintain a harmonious experience for your pets. I’ve migrated a lot and am quite skilled at leaving a space better than I found it
“Kelsey stayed with our small dog in our home for 9 days. Our little dog was well taken care of and had great attention and walks. I trusted Kelsey completely in our home. I would be glad to have her again.”
“Hope is the best! We were so thrilled to have her watch our Tucker and stay at our home. She was a very conscientious guest, our house was absolutely spotless, and Tucker was a very happy boy. Highly recommend! We look forward to having Hope watch Tucker again.”
About: I genuinely love animals. I grew up with two dogs and a cat. I’ve watched over other family dogs and cats for weeks and even months at a time. I work at most 6 hour shifts per day and 4 days per week so I have plenty of free time for play, walking and cuddles. I currently live with one pup who I walk daily before work and we love going on hikes or to the lake on a nice day
About: I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication. As I create this account, I am traveling and petsitting on the road. My schedule is very flexible because of this, and so I am open to long or short stays. Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.
About: I love pets and I am happy to care for them while thier owners are away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your best friends behind when you have to leave town. I provide excellent care and comfort for your pets. I cared for my family dog, Maggie, for 10 years. She was a high energy blue heeler with Cushing's disease and big anxious heart. I also adore cats. I adopted a one-eyed senior cat with a bad hip, Sebastian, in 2020, and he lived out the rest of his days being loved and cared for by me. Now I have two younger cats, Ruthie and Atlas. I work from home. This is why house sitting works best for me. I can care for you pets constantly throughout the day as they need. I am very careful to keep pets safe around cars and other dogs. I understand how scary it can be to let someone else care for your pet and I will be dedicated to keeping them happy and safe.
About: Hi! I've had many pets growing up and am a fur mama to my beautiful and friendly black lab Arlo. Arlo absolutely loves other dogs, and I am hoping to find some new friends for him to play with since he is an only child, while also helping out their human moms and dads. We are looking forward to future play dates! I work from home so I can be flexible with your schedule and your pets needs. Please let me know if your pet needs anything special! Customized to what your dogs needs are. I walk Arlo multiple times a day and try to get off leash time in safe areas as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 128 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Burns. 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 Burns 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 Burns 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Burns 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.
