“Craig was an awesome dogsitter. My two little dogs were well taken care of and I received commentaries and pictures atleast twice a day. I would definitely hire him again!”
“Christina took great care of our two dogs and cats while we were traveling. This was our first time using a pet sitter and she helped us be at ease! We got lots of pics and updates which were so welcomed!”
“Lauren was amazing with our boys and communicated with us the entire time we were away. Would recommend her to anyone who loves their pets. Will absolutely be working with her again.”
“Our sometimes fearful of strangers 18 month old Belgian Tervuren warmed right up to Nicole’s careful approach. She came 4 times a day for walking, play with ball throwing and feeding of both Terv’s and sent us numerous photos with each daily report. We couldn’t be more pleased with her service and will certainly call her for our next time away.”
“Amanda was amazing with our pups. Communicated with us everyday, kept our home very clean and tidy. I have no doubt that if Bert and Gertie could talk, they would praise her highly!”
“Lauren sent pictures and kept us posted on our pets well being. They all seemed very happy. She was flexible as we returned early but we made sure she was compensated for the entire booking.”
“This is our second time using Ashton. The first time was for dog walking and this past week was for overnight home sitting for our dog and three indoor cats. Ashton did a great job of sending us updates and photos. She made sure to use the dog booties when it was scorching hot outside during walks. Our dog is anxious during storms and Ashton kept her close and snuggled with her to try to keep her calm. Good detailed instructions were helpful and appreciated. We are thankful for the care she provided.”
“Victoria is a repeat sitter for us this time however she watched all three of our dogs. They are finicky when interacting with each other and she did everything to make it a smooth weekend for them. I appreciate all the updates, care and compassion she gives the dogs.”
“These two sitters are wonderful! This is the first time we needed to leave our two dogs alone for an extended period and we were nervous. Philip and Lily restored our confidence! We met with them several times prior to departure and they asked all the right questions and had all the right answers to our questions! The dogs liked them and we returned to happy dogs and a home that was tidy - no incidents! They were super responsive to our inquiries while we were away. You cannot miss with this team!”
About: I’ve been watching both cats and dogs for friends and neighbors for a few years now, and now that I have more flexibility in my schedule I would love to provide my services to others! I work fully remotely and have a ton of flexibility to take care of your pets! If i’m not on vacation, i’m usually free to help :) I live in an apartment with my two-year-old chihuahua mix, Archie! Plenty of opportunities to run around the fenced dog area or ride over to a trail or park for more activity.
“Anna did wonderful with my cane corso, Saphira and Saphira really enjoyed her time with Anna as well. Anna followed all of our instructions and kept me updated throughout the day with lovely pictures. I would recommend Anna and will be using her in the future.”
“Linda was a fantastic sitter for Shadow and we will definitely use her again when we travel. She kept us very well informed and sent pictures daily. She even washed the sheets and towels used which was an added surprise. It was great to travel worry free with Linda’s care of our girl. Highly recommended and appreciated.”
“Peyton did a great job staying with Mabel and Roxy over the weekend. She sent regular pictures and updates. I was about to enjoy my trip because I knew my dogs were being cared for. 😊”
“I can't believe I neglected to write this review for so long! Likely because I returned home and was so comfortable and knew the dogs were safe and sound thanks to Deborah's”
“This is the second time Jenny has stayed at our house with our two pups and I once again, we came home to a clean house and two very happy well taken care of dogs. I love that she sends pictures and updates, it really helps an anxiety pup mom like myself to feel relaxed and enjoy myself while gone. Thank you again so much, Jenny!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Burton Woods
Alyssa did a great job with my boys. We travelled for 2 weeks and during that time, Alyssa was communicative and did a great job at giving us a great sense of peace that our 2 dogs were well and happy. She followed all instructions well and left the house spotless. We especially appreciated her "days of travel" communication - staying on top of our departures and arrivals with an eye to providing quality care for our boys.
Once again Joe went above and beyond with taking care of our pets and house. He sent photos and videos multiple times a day so I never had to worry about their care. Our overly needy pup was so relaxed and content when we returned so I know she was well loved! He was also very gracious about staying longer when we had a mix up about our return time. I highly recommend Joe for all your pet care needs.
Hannah did a great job caring for our energetic Rottie! She sent frequent updates and pictures, and we felt confident that she was providing great care to our fur baby. She also asked if there were any chores that she could do while at the house. We look forward to Hannah coming to pet sit again!
If you are ever in need of a reliable and compassionate pet center, I would strongly recommend booking Alissa. She was very sweet to our dogs and incredibly patient. We have two 2 year old sister Aussie’s and they can be quite a handful. She also took care of our kitty cat as well. We were leaving the country and needed to know that they would be in safe hands while we were abroad. Not only did she take wonderful care of both of our dogs, Allisa gave them plenty of exercise in the backyard playing and several long walks. Whenever I checked in with her, she was swift to reply and even sent photos. As a definite bonus she kept our house sparkling clean and tidy. For my family and I it’s such a relief to be able to go away on a vacation and not have to worry about our furry family back at home. She is definitely a pet sitter that I will be booking in the future as well as telling my friends and family to as well!
Regan did a fine job sitting with our dog,Bo. I would have loved a few more pics but she did a great job anyway. Our house was in good condition and she kept us up to date most of the time. She is a very engaging young woman and Bo clearly enjoyed his stay with her. We will be using her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Burton Woods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Burton Woods on Rover is $46.62 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 509 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Burton Woods. 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 Woods 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 Woods 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 Woods 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 Woods. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
