About: Hi! My name is Lucie and I have a huge passion for all things dog, I have been a dog groomer for a year now and have been pet sitting for at least 4. I am very used to nervous or difficult dogs. Dogs are a huge part of my life :) I work 4 days a week but my job is very flexible so I can easily leave to quickly let pups out to pee on work days! Like i mentioned I have been pet sitting for 4 years and have built a lot of trust with my clients! I do lots of text check ins with pet parents so they know they’re baby is doing good!
“Alexandra is the most amazing dog sitter!! She was fantastic with my two labs on walks and playing with them and meal time! Her pictures of the girls are wonderful! She is my go to sitter!!”
“Wonderful and highly recommended care of our babies! Lis takes away all and any worries and goes above and beyond! The doggies really love her and look forward to their special time together.”
“Grace did a wonderful job! She was patient with my crank old boy. She came and took wonderful care of cosmo even when he wasnt the friendliest with her the firsr couple days. She remained calm and continued working with him until he fully warmed up to her. Grace continued to give me updates on how he was doing everyday and even noticed when he was acting a little different due to him having a mild reaction/ itching a lot due to treats that were provided and went out of her way to get new ones for him. I could not have asked for a better sitter to pop in on my boy.”
“Brooke was great with my kitty. She came in daily for a week and I could tell Ravi was very comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Brooke to all! This was my first time using Rover and Brooke was very responsive which put me at ease.”
“I reached out to Kassandra for drop in visits for my five cats while I went on a trip. I was a little nervous leaving them in a strangers care but when I met her for an initial visit I immediately knew they were in good hands. I got updates and pictures multiple times a day and even my scaredy cat came around her. She followed their usual routine to a T. Highly recommend!”
“Leeann was incredibly sweet and took wonderful care of our pets. She was very responsive to messages, which we really appreciated! Our only suggestion would be to better utilize the Rover cards to track her visits. Overall, she did a great job, and we’d happily recommend her!”
“This was my first time using Elisabeth and I am very satisfied with her services! She was very attentive and informative in the notes and made me feel calm and at ease when she cared for my fur babies. I definitely would use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Laura has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She does weekend check-ins and walks for us, and I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better. My dog can be a little more challenging than most, but Laura is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive with him. She really takes the time to understand his personality and needs instead of just going through the motions. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and dedicated. She goes above and beyond every time.”
“Missy was so wonderful with my puppy Corbin! I had zero concerns leaving him in her hands. She was very communicative, followed directions, was respectful of my home, and was detailed in her updates. The photos she included in her updates were the highlight of my day! I could tell she really enjoyed her time with him and he was having fun and felt safe with her. Thank you so much, Missy!!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’m incredibly impressed with Abby as a sitter! From the very first visit, she made sure my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. The updates were top-notch every time, with the cutest photos and thoughtful notes that gave me total peace of mind. My dog absolutely lights up when Abby arrives, which says everything. She clearly cares so much and is amazing with pets of all personalities. Communication is quick and smooth, scheduling is easy, and she is always reliable and professional. If you’re looking for someone kind, trustworthy, and truly dedicated to caring for your fur babies, Abby is the perfect choice. Your pet will be in the best hands! 🐾❤️”
About: Loving, Reliable Dog Care Since 1998 My passion for caring for dogs began in 1998 when I started walking dogs in Washington, DC. What began as a simple love for dogs quickly grew into a rewarding business built on trust, reliability, and genuine care. With decades of experience, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I provide dependable, personalized care so pet parents can feel confident knowing their dogs are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether it’s dog walking, sitting, playtime, or simply giving your pet some extra attention and companionship, I treat every dog as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Over 25 years of experience. A lifelong love of dogs. Care you can trust. I have a 5 lb. Yorkie for your dog to play with. I am retired so I am home all day, every day. We love to go out and walk every day . I have a fenced in yard with wire all the way to the ground. My built in pool also has a safety fence. I have a 5 lb. Yorkie. My house is free for your dog to run around.
About: We only take dogs up to 30lbs due to my daughter being afraid of most bigger dogs despite us having one of our own. We will give consideration to dogs over that weight if we feel it’s a good fit. We have recently begun boarding in our home again and have adopted a new goldendoodle Lincoln on 3/22/24. He will be about 60lbs once full grown He’s sweet and full of energy and loves to play with all dogs. I have had my own dogs for about 11 years and have also taken care of friends pets although usually in their own homes.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Burlington on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,045 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Burlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Burlington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Burlington. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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.
