Doggy Day Care in Burlington

“Nicole Jazmin was great! She took care of Phoebe so nicely and we were able to have a fun care free day knowing she was taken care of!”

“Blair is great with animals AND people. She’s polite, kind, responsible and professional. We’ve had a variety of pets and she cares for them exactly as we instruct her to. We never asked her to play with the cat, but she’d do it in her own accord. We learned bc when she would come back home, my cat would run to her and stroke his head against her face in affection ❤️. She fed live worms to our bearded dragon, walk the dog, feed the turtle. I can’t recommend Blair enough!!”

“Gregg was awesome! Took great care of Howard and gave him some time out with his pup. 10/10 recommend!”

“Caitie was great! She was flexible, responsive, and very kind to me and my dog. Caitie asked good questions about my dog’s care. My dog was in a good mood after a day with Caitie. I definitely recommend her!”

“Tess is the best. She’s known my dog (Winn) since she was just a wee pup and has shown her nothing but love in all of their time together. Winn loves spending time with her auntie Tess, and I can’t imagine a better person to take care of your pups.”

“Janessa approaches dog-sitting like she approaches anything else in her life; with dedication, commitment, genuineness and responsibility. Her love for pets, reliability and consistent communication makes her an excellent choice for taking care of your beloved furry friends.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my whole life and have taken care of them for at least ten years:) (feeding, walking, bathing, administering medications, all the love, playing and pets,etc) I’ve also cared for my very old and very sweet cat who struggled with some basic tasks as he became blind and incontinent up to his parting, and would do the same for any of my families animals! I’ve housesat for a family friend’s 2 cats, as well as for my sisters and former partners 3 cats a couple times, and my other sister’s dog(whom I boarded), bunny, and cat on a handful of occasions:) I also recently just hosted my sister and one of her cats for over a month and now have a space with no pets again:( so I’d be happy to host! I am temporarily unemployed due to layoff during the winter season, therefore I have plenty of free time to provide excellent and holistic care for your pets! Have good amount of indoor space and some shared outdoor yard with picnic table and some frisbee tossing space! There are plenty of nice places to walk around my neighborhood in Winooski, and there’s a dog park 10 mins in walking distance from my apartment!

About: New to Burlington area and Rover! Moved from Jersey. I had a dog for 10 years, we rescued him from a farm when he was four (a handsome GSP) so I have been around dogs my whole life. We potty trained, crate trained, and yard trained him. After he passed away at the age of 14, I started dog sitting and house sitting a yellow lab named Maisey who loves to hike, has a bit of a sass to her, and won’t pass up an opportunity to jump up on the couch with you. I then moved to Burlington Vermont and am looking to provide the same love and care for dogs up here! I work from home, so it is very easy for me to be around the majority of the time. The longest I would plan on being away from the home is an hour. I go on daily walks and runs, plus always get outside during the day which is perfect for potty breaks. I live in Burlington so I am steps away from the waterfront and dog parks if approved by the owner. I currently do not have pets in the home. For walking, I go on at least a 20-30 minute walk every morning and do the same at night or a run down by the water. For boarding, I will be home the entire day to care for your pet since I work from home. For house sitting, since I work from home I could work from your house and be there for your dog the entire time requested.

“Bella is very responsible and reliable, with years of experience living with and caring for her own pets as well as family and friends’ pets. She is very attentive and caring. Always having a family pet, she not only understands the details and responsibilities associated with caring for pets, she truly enjoys time spent with them.”

Firstly, a great dog walker possesses a genuine love and affinity for dogs. This isn't just a job to them; it's a passion. They understand the nuances of different breeds and individual dog personalities, enabling them to cater to each pup's needs effectively. Secondly, reliability and responsibility are key traits. A dependable dog walker shows up on time, rain or shine, ensuring the dogs in their care receive consistent exercise and attention.

A great dog walker keeps open lines of communication with pet owners, providing regular updates on their furry friends' activities and well-being. They're attentive listeners, able to understand and address any concerns or special requests from clients promptly. Furthermore, a good dog walker prioritizes safety above all else. They're knowledgeable about canine behavior and are equipped to handle various situations that may arise during walks, whether it's encountering other dogs, wildlife, or unexpected hazards. Lastly, passion, patience, and positivity round out the qualities of an exceptional dog walker. Cia would approach each walk with enthusiasm, turning it into an enjoyable experience for both the dog & the walker :) Her patience knows no bounds, whether it's dealing with a hyperactive puppy or an older dog with mobility issues. And through it all, their positivity shines, creating a nurturing and joyful environment for the dogs they care for. In essence, someone who embodies these qualities would undoubtedly make a great dog walker, enriching the lives of both the dogs she walks and their owners alike.”

“My first time using Rover and I pick the nicest person! My dog is usually anxious around strangers and I was worried but Danielle kept her nice and comfortable. And she sent me lots of updates, keeping me at ease and entertained while I was apart from my dog. Definitely will be using her services again in the future.”

“Brian is one of the few people in the world that I'd trust to take care of my furry children. Brian's genuine love for animals paired with his professional expertise in animal and pet care make him an obvious choice. Through our friendship I've witnessed Brian take amazing care of many different pets Including dogs, cats, snakes, and chinchillas. Brian always puts Animals and pets first and will always be my first choice to take care of my pets when I am away from home.”

“Super friendly and flexible! Racer was sad to say goodbye.”

“Kelley is fantastic!! She took our pup out for an active day, sent lots of pictures, and tired her right out. We will absolutely be using Kelley in the future, and highly recommend her :)”

“As a friend, Joscelyn is an amazingly thoughtful and compassionate person. She’s exactly the same as a pet caregiver. Not only is Joscelyn is communicative, she has wide experience with pets of all kinds- and love for a wide range of fur babies. Big to small, fussy to sweet, and every animal in between.”

About: I grew up with pets in my house & grew up learning how to care for all pets. Making pets feel comfortable in a foreign area is something I pride myself on. I am a student at UVM & work part-time at the hospital. So I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups & take care of them when their parents are gone !! My apartment is VERY pet proof, and I live on a street that is great for short & long walks. There is also an unfenced area outside of my apartment for easy-access potty breaks.

“Violet had a wonderful day with Jack. They bonded right away, which helped ease my anxiety about leaving her with a stranger. It was evident that Violet enjoyed their time together when Jack dropped her back with us. I would highly recommend using Jack to care for your dog.”

“Bernie had a great day with Bre! He was well taken care of and we were updated multiple times throughout the day on all the fun he had. He came home very sleepy from a busy day!”

“Carly is the sweetest! This was Ruby's second day with Carly and when she got out of the car her tail went crazy and she ran up the steps. Carly is so sweet with her and I feel great when Ruby is in her care. Thank you for being awesome!”

“Nicholas is not only a loyal and caring friend to all. He also has an extremely huge heart for dog friends. As his close friend, I can see how much he loves his own dog (who lives in his childhood home). Nicholas has a calming energy which gives the support you need after a long day. Anyone would be truly lucky to have him take care of their dogs.”
