“Bonnie was great! This was the first time we left our highly anxious dog by herself for a long trip and Bonnie was super professional. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Rachel did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Stella! I’m always nervous about who watches my cat, but she made me feel right at ease with great updates and photos. Stella even curled up with her on the couch, which she doesn’t do with just anyone! Stella looks forward to Rachel coming to play again :)”
About: Hey, friends! Welcome to Waggin' & Walkin'. I've had many types of animal family members in my life. From dogs and cats to a ferret and a guinea pig! I've also volunteered at the Rota Animal Welfare League while stationed in Spain. My duties included feeding, cleaning the grounds, and spending time with my furry pals. There's no doubt that your dog will be in great hands. Whether it's feeding them, walking them or simply relaxing with them to ensure they're comfortable, I'll be there when you can't to ensure they're good to go 💯👍. I have a really great schedule which will allow me ample time to take care of your pets needs. My typical work schedule is from 6am-2pm so any time after that I can assist. From walking to pet sitting, I'll ensure they are loved and cared for so you can relax and focus on what you need to do. As of now I plan to perform the following services: Dog walks, Pop-ins and pet sitting at the client's home. I might add Boarding in the future. When you're not home I will do all tasks that you require to ensure your loved pet is nourished, interacted with and feels safe & happy.
“As always, Katherine is a joy and takes such great care of our little kitty. I cannot say enough good things about her. Definitely recommend her, and we always choose her whenever we’re going out of town.”
“Melissa has provided outstanding care to our miniature dachshund Charlie. After my initial outreach to Melissa, her communication was excellent and we could tell immediately that Charlie would be comfortable with her even though he is sometimes apprehensive about people he hasn’t met. For over a month, Melissa has provided reliable daily care for Charlie which has given our family peace of mind during a time of transition. With both my wife and then me being off work for almost a year on parental leave, we were concerned Charlie would be spiteful of our return to both working. Melissa’s excellent care, attention to Charlie and reliability clearly helped Charlie settle into our new routine. We give Melissa our highest recommendation and are grateful for her care!”
“Michelle is so patient with our dog… and me, as a first time Rover user. Our dog has anxiety and is very active. Michelle has worked with her to build trust and comfort. She’s also great with communicating through the app.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood. Growing up my family had a Dachshund — my first lesson in just how much personality a small dog can pack — and later a German Shepherd, who taught me that larger dogs need confidence, consistency, and genuine respect. I also spent years walking a neighbor's Irish Setter, which gave me an early appreciation for athletic, high-energy breeds that need real exercise and engagement, not just a quick lap around the block. Most recently I had a rescue dog I adopted when he was older and already managing some minor health issues. He later developed a heart condition that required daily medication — which I administered myself throughout his illness. Caring for him through that journey gave me hands-on experience with senior dog care, medical management, and the kind of patience and attentiveness that serious health conditions demand. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs for neighbors and friends — from drop-in visits to boarding them in my own home. My regulars have included a Westie who, despite the breed's famously stubborn reputation, spends most of his time demanding belly rubs and reminding me that Westies are really just cuddly dogs in a tough-dog costume. I have also cared for a Pit/Boxer mix who turned out to be one of the most docile, cuddly dogs I have ever had the pleasure of caring for — a reminder that reputation and reality are often two very different things. I judge dogs on who they are, not what breed they are. I also manage a regular medication routine for the Westie in my care. If your dog has a medication schedule, it will not be skipped, forgotten, or treated as an inconvenience. I am fully dedicated to pet care right now — home throughout the day, taking a limited number of dogs at a time so every guest gets real attention. Whether your dog needs a calm quiet environment, daily medication, or just someone who will truly enjoy their company all day — I am that person. I am home all day every day and fully available for pet care morning through evening. No day job, no busy schedule pulling me away. I follow each dog's individual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. Pet care is my full-time focus and I treat it that way. My home is calm, comfortable, and set up with your dog's happiness in mind. Every dog in my care gets out daily — just nearby is a beautiful park with a lake that makes for a perfect morning walk, along with plenty of neighborhood routes for dogs who love to explore and sniff every corner. Inside, dogs have comfortable resting areas and a relaxed, welcoming environment to settle right into. Your dog will never be cooped up or bored.
“We are so happy to have Sophie help us out with our senior GSP. She asked great questions as we were getting to know her, which made us feel more comfortable that our dog is in great hands!”
About: I’ve had a dog for four years now! I foster cats for the past year now and I love spending time with both dogs and cats! I recently graduated and have not started work yet! As of right now, I am full-time open to helping out! I’m open to spending nights as well! I don’t prefer to house cats or dogs in my own home. We have an invisible fence for Milo at my house. He uses collars for it
“Megan was fantastic taking care of JacQueese. She had good communication with me and I could tell from the pictures JacQueese enjoyed her time with Megan. I will definitely ask her back the next time I’m out of town.”
About: Whether you have a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or a unique exotic pet, I offer personalized, compassionate care right in your home or mine. With experience across a wide range of animals, I ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Flexible scheduling, daily updates, and lots of love guaranteed! I work from home, and have a fairly flexible schedule. It’s rare that I’m out of my house longer than two hours. I take frequent walks. I have a fenced in yard, safety is always on my mind, and I’m very detail oriented. I take my job seriously, and treat your pets as if they are my own.
“Faced with a last minute cancellation by our regular pet sitting service, we were fortunate to find the Rover App and through the App, Tresa. Our cats, normally skittish, readily welcomed her and Tresa’s daily reports and pictures reassured us they were in the very best hands. Looking forward to being a repeat customer 🙏”
“Lauren was wonderful! I enjoyed receiving pictures of my pup from every visit. She was great with communication, always prompt and on time! My pup was so happy to see her on every visit! I would highly recommend her and will be booking again for our next trip!”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and am lucky to still be caring for my childhood dog (17 years old!). Because of this experience, I know some dogs require a routine schedule to make sure they continue to be happy and healthy. Every dog has a one of a kind personality and I love getting to know each dogs quirks and little joys! I will be working close to a 9-5 schedule around 4 days a week. I will be able to give potty breaks or walks before and/or after my work during the work week but I am much more flexible Friday-Sunday. I live in an apartment so I unfortunately cannot offer dog sitting at my place at this time. Because I live in an apartment, I make sure to give my dog morning and evening walks and can make sure your dog gets the same treatment!
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Burke is $20

Rachel did a wonderful job watching both our dogs. She was on time, stayed longer than scheduled and simply gave them the love and care they needed. Our dogs were much more relaxed then when returning from other trips. I will not hesitate to use her again. Thank you Rachel.
Sonia did a great job taking care of our fur babies! We needed to go to a soccer game so we just needed her to drop in for a couple hours and she was great! We even had a little mixup with the timing of our booking but she was more than willing to accommodate us for the timings we discussed and made sure our fur babies got the care they needed! She went above and beyond in their care, sent lots of pictures and was very communicative! We will definitely be using her services again!
Ella took amazing care of Bailey while we were away. She was attentive, patient, reliable, followed our routine perfectly and sent the best daily photo updates. I was able to relax on my trip knowing my fur baby was well taken care of. We will definitely book Ella again!!
Jing is the petsitter I trust the most! She is so sweet and kind to Pepper and Walnut. Pepper is a big dog and can intimidate some people, but Jing wasn’t fazed by his size at all. He adores her and gets so excited when she shows up. She also gave medication to Walnut and double checked she didn’t avoid the pills hidden in her food. She’s very responsive and takes lots of pictures of them when she visits. She even cleaned their bowls her last visit before our return. She will be our petsitter for as long as we have our dogs and she’s still pet sitting 😊
Lauren was wonderful! I enjoyed receiving pictures of my pup from every visit. She was great with communication, always prompt and on time! My pup was so happy to see her on every visit! I would highly recommend her and will be booking again for our next trip!
Krysta was communicative and extremely responsive before, during, and after planning and check ins with our big dog. She shared photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while away. Our pup was happy and relaxed with her! We lost connection while away and though we got it resolved, she even offered to come back and check things out. We really appreciated her services and resolve to make sure Meeko was taken care of.
Ella was absolutely amazing with my dog Chewbacca over the weekend! She treated my little boy with so much love, care, and respect the entire time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Chewbacca was so happy and comfortable with her, and you can truly tell she genuinely loves animals. Communication was great, she was very kind, attentive, and went above and beyond. I will 100% be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!
Cindy is a life saver ! I booked her last minute and right there and then she went as soon as possible to do the drop in for my pets. Cindy truly cares for your pet ! She will go above and beyond. Cindy was so sweet , my fur baby’s got so comfortable and felt a good connection with her right away. Cindy thank you again! Will be booking again!
David and his family went above and beyond to care for our golden while we were away. It was our first time leaving Hank alone at our house for the weekend so we were filled with nerves. That was until we received the first pictures and rover card for their first visit. It was evident that they made Hank feel comfortable and even excited when they arrived! They popped in for 4 hour-long visits each day, doing two long walks and making sure he was fed, put to sleep, and played with each time. It was wonderful seeing multiple members of the family there with him. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
We were impressed with how thorough and detailed David was during the meet and greet, and this carried over when we were away and to the attention he gave to our 2 large pups for a week. Once all of his questions were answered, it is clear he provided excellent care and carried out all instructions to the tee. He sent updates 3x a time with pictures so we knew they were doing well - exactly what you want for your fur babies and so you can enjoy your vacay without that worry. We would absolutely book David again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Burke stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Burke 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Burke with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
