to look around (in detail), to check (for something)
Examples
네가 부엌을 살펴보는 동안, 나는 거실을 살펴볼게.

When you'd hear it
살펴보다 is neutral and common in both conversation and writing. It appears when someone carefully looks over a place, object, or situation, including everyday plans and workplace instructions.
What learners get wrong
살펴보다 suggests looking over something carefully, not just seeing it as 보다 does. For searching for specific information or an item, 찾아보다 is often the more natural choice.
