About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced dog lover who has cared for a wide range of breeds, including Labs, Mini Pins, Beagles, German Shepherds, Boxers, and French Bulldogs. I’ve worked with both energetic puppies and older rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from basic training to providing extra patience and care for dogs who may be anxious or need a little more attention. I’m very intuitive when it comes to animals and take pride in understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and feeling safe, I’ll make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training methods, or special instructions you have. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 I currently work part-time while going through a career change and taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate real, unhurried quality time to your furry loved one rather than rushing through visits or walks. My routine allows me to be dependable and accommodating for a variety of care needs, whether it’s daytime visits, walks, or extended time with your pet. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to carefully listen to and understand your specific instructions, routines, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent for your pet. I am highly attentive and detail-oriented, ensuring that all rules—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise needs, or home guidelines—are followed exactly as requested. I respect your home and your pet’s environment, creating a calm, secure, and stress-free experience while you’re away. You can trust that your furry family member will be cared for with patience, responsibility, and genuine attention to their individual needs.

I’ve owned and loved dogs my entire life, so I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals; they are cherished family members. Whether your pup needs a high-energy run, a patient walk, or just some quality couch snuggles, I promise to treat them with the exact same love and devotion I give my own. 🐴 Beyond Pups: My Diverse Animal Experience While dogs have my heart, my hands-on experience spans across the entire animal kingdom! I am comfortable, confident, and experienced caring for a wide variety of pets, including: Horses: Experienced with the unique routines, feeding, and specialized care that equines require. Cats: Master of the litter box, professional chin-scratcher, and expert at respecting feline boundaries. Fish & Lizards: Well-versed in the specific feeding schedules, habitat maintenance, and delicate care needed for aquatic and reptilian friends. Why choose me?

No matter the shape, size, or species, your beloved pets will be safe, happy, and thoroughly spoiled in my care! I work full-time in education, but am available after 3pm for your pet care needs. I have the summers off, so beginning in June, I have all the flexibility you need! As a highly depenable provider, I offer a comprehensive suite of in-home services tailored to your pet's specific schedule: Reliable Drop-Ins & Feeding: Strict adherence to dietary routines, medication schedules, and fresh water refills.

I will provide safe, controlled exercise tailored to your dog’s age, energy level, and stamina.

“Hunter was reliable and trustworthy. She took great care of my cats while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely use her again in the future!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Drake ]took amazing care of our pups while we were away—providing regular updates, photos, and making sure our dogs felt loved and comfortable. It was clear from the start that he genuinely cares about animals. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone responsible, kind, and trustworthy!”

“Priscilla was absolutely fantastic with our boys. They're prone to mischief, and not surprisingly Priscilla found some. She handled it by first letting us know immediately, and then even cleaned up the mess the boys made by tipping over one of our plants. Communication was excellent, and the boys were clearly comfortable with her caring for them. I recommend Priscilla unconditionally.”


“Kim was always on time, topped off the food and water, and cleaned the litter box for my two cats. Immediate rapport between my 'boys' and Kim was great! I would invite her again as needed.”


About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.
“Sara is amazing!!! She took great care of Taco. She eased the anxiety of being away from him by sending constant pictures and text updates. And taco loves her!!! He’s always happy to see her—will definitely book again!!”

“Sarah is a wonderful person. She was fantastic with our dogs. She goes out of her way to make sure they’re happy and safe I could not a better pet sitter. She is a wonderful person five star all the way.”

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and birds. While it has been quite a few years, I was a veterinary technician in high school and college. I love all animals and feel comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I am a second grade teacher looking to share my love of animals while earning extra income during the summer. I am a second-grade teacher with two high school children. I can be available most days during the summer due to my career. I am also available most afternoons/evenings during the school year. I will ensure any specific instructions are followed with care and accuracy and make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I can support the needs of both active and relaxed dogs, and love to provide a cozy lap and/or be a throwing companion for your furry family member.
“Jennifer was wonderful with our elderly cat, Ricky. She made sure he was well taken care of during the recent huge snowstorm (and even had the front walk and steps cleared). We came home to a happy, purring cat and everything was immaculate.”

“April was terrific to work with. She sent me a daily update and pictures and I knew my kitties were safe with her. Excellent communication also. I highly recommend April to care for your pets.”

About: Not only have I cared for other people's animals, but I have a furry friend of my own. I know what it takes to love and care for our little family members, and I know what an owner would expect from a caregiver. I take time out of every day to ensure my dog has the best possible care I can provide, and I'll give the same effort to your pet. I have always felt a special bond to animals. At a young age I started caring for animals and slowly gaining more responsibility over their care. I have left food out and changed litter boxes for cats while owners are away, and stayed over for multiple days to care for rescue dogs who needed the company and support while their owner's were away. I work 100% from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am a professional and already use my break times to get outside and take walks / go to parks, so getting your pet exercise is not an issue. I defer to the requests and comfortability of each client. Every pet is unique, and I want to give the best possible care for each furry friend.
About: I’ve owned a dog my entire life and regularly took care of my neighbors cats and dogs growing up. Currently own a rescue lab/whippet mix. Dog sit my sisters pit/lab mix. Grew up with ducks, chickens, rabbits and goats as well! Lover of all animals! I have a flexible, daytime schedule and look forward to spending some of my time taking care of and going on long walks with your pets! Safety is my number one priority! I will follow all instructions regarding pet care and follow up with any questions. I understand the love that owners have for their pets!!
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have been pet sitting on the side for over 2 and a half years now! I mostly do overnights, making sure dogs are well taken care of and attended to. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I will be available almost every day, at any given time! Whether that’s a drop in visit or an overnight stay! I try to spend as much time as much time as I have with your dog to make sure they have been let out to go to the bathroom and exercise if needed!

Burlington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hunter was our first pet sitter from Rover. We were a bit nervous to let a stranger into our home to watch our precious furry princess while we were away, but after meeting with Hunter during the meet and greet, we could immediately tell she was kind, polite, respectful of our home & cat, and she was very knowledgeable about pet care. While we were away, she followed our care directions to the letter, regularly sent us super cute photos of our kitty, and gave us updates. She even went above and beyond to water our basil plants which she didnt need to do, but was just another example of how great and thoughtful she is. Overall, she did a stellar job. We will absolutely hire her again, and we are so thankful for her excellent care of our shy cat. If you're looking for a responsible, attentive, and caring pet sitter, we cannot say enough good things about Hunter. She is the best!
