Our 3 dogs absolutely loved Gianna. She took amazing care of them and was fully engaged in them and their needs. She followed any instructions perfectly and dogs were so happy. The boys got the royal treatment. They will be so excited when she comes back to see us. Ty Gianna

Shay was great! Our Cooper was well taken care of and she minded our house conscientiously. She even had to handle some curveballs our home threw at her and she handled it well. Would book again!

They went above and beyond to understand our pets needs including pre-visits before we went away. Seemed to follow all our instructions effectively, and asked questions when needed. Communication is great and when we got home our pets seemed happy and content.

About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for several years and have grown very comfortable caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I always make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it's going for walks, playing outside, providing companionship, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply giving extra attention and affection, I'm happy to adapt to each pet's unique needs. As an active college athlete, I have plenty of energy for long walks and playtime, but I'm also patient and attentive with dogs who prefer a calmer environment. My goal is always to provide reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care is something I take seriously, and I have a schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention and flexibility. I work part-time as a lifeguard, which gives me the ability to take breaks throughout the day to check on pets, take dogs for walks, provide potty breaks, feed pets, or attend to any other needs they may have. In addition, I am generally available during mornings, evenings, and overnight hours, allowing me to spend quality time with pets and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet needs an active companion, a consistent routine, or simply someone to keep them company, I have the time and dedication to provide reliable, attentive care. My experience caring for pets comes from raising my own two rescue dogs. When my family first brought them home, they were nervous, hesitant around people, and not always easy to handle. Like many rescue animals, they needed time, patience, and consistency before they felt comfortable in their new environment. Over the years, I have helped them build confidence through daily routines, training, exercise, and plenty of love and attention. Watching them grow from uncertain rescue dogs into friendly, affectionate companions has taught me a great deal about animal care. It showed me that every pet has a unique personality and that building trust often takes patience and understanding. Today, caring for my dogs is a regular part of my life. I feed them a combination of wet and dry food twice a day, take them on walks throughout the day whenever my schedule allows, and make sure they get the exercise, attention, and affection they need to stay happy and healthy. One of my dogs also experiences seasonal allergies and requires medication during certain times of the year, so I am comfortable following care instructions and administering medications when needed. Because of these experiences, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone else's pet. Whether a pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, young or old, I strive to provide a safe, comfortable environment where they feel secure, cared for, and loved while their owners are away.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I treat each pet like they're my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each stay. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have a cat at my parents I have my own place. Every day I make time for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure my cat is happy and comfortable. Because caring for pets is already part of my schedule, it's easy for me to provide reliable, consistent care for your pet as well. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, stick to their normal routine, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention and care. I always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, ensuring you have peace of mind while you're away.

Matt was amazing! Extremely tentative and very professional. He watched out 2 dogs and cat over an entire weekend. He sent regular pics and updates the whole time. Provided walks for our Golden and was extremely accommodating with our senior dog, as well, who has the typical senior dog needs and “white glove” care. We will definitely be booking Matt in the future. I would highly recommend.

About: In Kindergarten, my family got our first puppy. Her name was Daisy and she is my guardian angel. We grew up together, we played together, I learned the responsibilities, better yet I discovered my natural connection with animals. I nurtured her when we were scared of storms and picked her up going upstairs during her senior years. Years later our family got another puppy named Mowgli and he is my pal. Raising him was a different task and experience but he turned out to be a great partner. We run, fetch, catch and of course clean and bathe often. I have dog sit and walked for neighbors and family. It would be amazing to get to know your pup! Currently working part time so very flexible. Hoping to have more time to assist in pet needs and get to know some new furry friends. Backyard has a fence and house has a few floors to play. If preferred or allowed, sure don’t mind pets in the bed or couch.

I’m so grateful for Brittney’s care of my two dogs and two cats during the Christmas week.From the start, she was responsible, reliable and kind. She visited our house twice a day, even during Christmas. Gave my cat medication properly and gently.She left my home clean and tidy. Most importantly, my furry babies felt safe and happy with her. They bonded with Brittney so quickly, and could see they were in wonderful hands. Her calm presence and reliability gave us peace of mind while we were away of the country and it’s so good to have now someone we can trust when a new trip comes. Our schedule changed several times and I’m so grateful for her flexibility and patience! I will definitely hire Brittney again! Thank you Brittney for everything - you made a world of difference for us!

Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!

After our meet and greet, I felt totally at ease with leaving my Lucy in Emily’s care. She obviously loves dogs, that’s for sure! I went away this weekend feeling no anxiety about going because of that. Emily took excellent care of her, sending me occasional pictures. When I came home, Lucy was very happy to see me, and my house was still in perfect order. Emily is the best💕

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who treats every animal like my own. I have always had pets growing up and I always help out my family and friends with taking care of their pets while they are away. I have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, and senior pets, including feeding, basic training, and giving medications. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to each pet’s needs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work in retail, so I can take care of your pets in the mornings and evenings. Occasionally, I’ll get off work in the early afternoon, so I’m also available in the afternoons. I’m quite adept at following instructions. If I ever have questions, I make sure to ask them instead of doing something and not knowing if it’s right or wrong.

About: I have grown up around animals and when I was 6 years old my family adopted our first dog. Since then, I have understood the importance around having an animal in your life, yet also the responsibility it brings with it. At the age of 12 I joined my sister in her dog walking business. Each day we would walk our neighbors dogs after school whilst making sure they went potty and were properly cared for via instructions given to us. As we grew older we started to watch them over night on weekends, and go with our neighbors to places where they needed help with their dogs. Dogs are not just pets…they are family. I have used that time as a dog walker to grow my own personal experience watching other families pets. I have since watched one family’s two dogs for three summers in a row due to the amount of trust and loyalty I have built with them. I can take care of any type of dog that you may have. Small, medium, large; young, adult, senior. It does not matter to me. I love them all and would enjoy watching as well as taking care of them. I am currently working part-time at Kent State University as a Graduate Assistant. The most time I spend in my office is about 4-6hrs per day. On the weekends I am home in Chardon. I will be able to accommodate your animals needs if needed on the weekends, and during the week. I will be home for the summer, but I will be moving down to the Kent area in the fall I always make sure that I meet the dog before I ever start taking care of them. As for walks, I would be sure to give them love before and after long walks. If I were to stay with them, I would ensure the pet and I would have time to play, go potty and a walk, as well eat dinner together so a bond and trust would be built. The pet would stay at their house so they wouldn’t be scared in a new setting.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experienced all kinds of different ages, breeds, and sizes!! I have also watched friends, family, and neighbors pets who have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for them while they were away. I strive to provide attentive, loving care so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident. Pet care would take up most of my time in daily or weekly routines! I am a student who is looking to help over the summer so I am pretty flexible!! Although I may be working two days of the week in the morning. Overall, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I love staying active and spending time with animals, so your pet will receive lots of attention, exercise, and care. In previous homes I have taken dogs out on the leash to go to the bathroom as well as take them on walks. I have also had a mixture of some who like to sleep in a crate or in the bed with me. At my house my dogs have a little fenced in area to go to the bathroom where I pick up after them and they sleep in crates!! So I have had a lot of experience acclimating to whatever different a needs the pets have!! I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel secure and cared for. I always keep owners updated with messages and photos, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to create a safe, stress-free experience for both you and your pet!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Burton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Burton on Rover is $27.75 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,043 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Burton. 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 Burton 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 Burton 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 Burton 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 Burton. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
