“I can’t say enough amazing things about Likun—she is truly the BEST dog sitter we’ve ever had! From the moment Chewy arrived, he was showered with so much love, attention, and care. 🐾💛 She spent tons of time playing with him and made sure he was always happy and engaged. Her large backyard was an absolute dream—plenty of space for Chewy to run around, explore, and have the time of his life! It honestly felt like a mini vacation for him. What really stood out was the 1-on-1 attention she gave him. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and Chewy absolutely adored her. I picked him up relaxed, happy, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and full of love for your pup, Likun is it. We will definitely be booking with her again—Chewy can’t wait to go back!”
“Arnav is an excellent caregiver for our dog. He is a great communicator, and the pictures he sent, showing our dog relaxed in his house, enabled us to enjoy our trip. So glad we found him!”
“Elizabeth and Neil are the best sitters we have found. Their passion for caring for animals is undeniable and to know my pup was in great hands the entire time was such a relief. They were incredibly communicative and we appreciated all of the videos and images of our pup having a great time. I would highly recommend them - your pup will be loved and in safe hands! Thank you Elizabeth and Neil!!”
“Monica took care of my little (rescue) rat terrier overnight. She did an excellent job! My dog is anxious and Monica was very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures and kept me informed about my dog's experience throughout the stay. I am looking forward to my next booking with Monica!”
“Janette and her family were so welcoming and loving with my dog, Ridley. We got lots of updates and photos of her enjoying her stay, and felt completely at ease leaving her in their care.”
“Asia was WONDERFUL!! This was our first time leaving our pup Chickoo for such an extended period of time and she went above and beyond to ease my mind. She was extremely communicative, provide multiple updates with pictures daily, and answered any questions we had. Asia took care of Chickoo like he was her own and we are so thankful we found her! 10000% recommend her to anyone looking to have peace of mind while traveling.”

“It's always hard to leave your dog behind while on vacation but I instantly felt as ease as soon as I dropped my baby boi off. He had an amazing time and the daily photos and updates were much appreciated. And because he was so well taken care of, I could fully enjoy my trip. I highly recommend.”
“François was absolutely fantastic. He went over our routine with Atlas and took Atlas for multiple long walks - Atlas was in heaven. François kept us up-to-date on their activities together and was easy to communicate with!”
“Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.”
“We were abroad when we suddenly needed doggie care, so I reached out to Maddy, and she responded immediately! She did a fantastic job caring for our sweet 6 year old lab. She sent plenty of amazing photos and updates, which made us feel completely at ease, especially since this was our first time using Rover. Maddy was communicative, friendly, and made sure our dog got plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. It was clear he was incredibly well cared for and absolutely loved his time with her! I would highly recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will absolutely be boarding our dog with her again!”
“Howie runs into Elizabeth and Rodrigo’s home every time I drop him off like it’s his own home!! That’s all you can ask for as a pet parent!! They are so communicative, flexible and kind.”
“Frodo had a great stay- enjoyed playing with the hosts' dogs, I got great pictures and video updates, easy to communicate with. Would absolutely use again.”
“Heather took great care of my goldendoodle (Riva) for a weekend. Heather was very communicative and shared pictures and updates throughout the stay, and it was comforting to see Riva looking so relaxed and at home. She seemed to fit right into Heather's family! I would definitely recommend Heather to others.”
“Peter and his family are just great. Bailey had a wonderful time and was well cared for. It was the first time I left him with someone other than family. I could just tell how excited he was to be with the kids and have so much attention. He slept well when I bought him home so I know he was well taken care of and exercised. I highly recommend Peter. Will definitely return! Cathy H”
“I was thrilled with the level of care my dog, Charlie, received with Luciana. The whole experience was delightful and it was a very happy and positive experience for everyone involved. Luciana is a person who is, quite clearly, very skilled at caring for dogs. A+”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Burlington
Likun was a great sitter! Appreciated the daily pictures or videos to keep us aware that our pup was doing okay separated from her usual pack. We don't travel too often these days so our dog has gotten some bad separation anxiety and Likun was patient and adaptable to our dog's needs.
Luna had a great time with Danielle! We loved receiving pictures and updates about how she was doing. It was reassuring to see that Luna was happy and well cared for. We’re very happy with the service and truly appreciate the care and attention Danielle gave Luna!
Asia was WONDERFUL!! This was our first time leaving our pup Chickoo for such an extended period of time and she went above and beyond to ease my mind. She was extremely communicative, provide multiple updates with pictures daily, and answered any questions we had. Asia took care of Chickoo like he was her own and we are so thankful we found her! 10000% recommend her to anyone looking to have peace of mind while traveling.
Ms. King is a very trustworthy and caring sitter! She took care of our senior Boston Terrier for six days and sent us lots of photos every day. Our dog isn’t always super friendly with other dogs, so I was a little worried about how she would do, but her Golden Retrieve, Gabe, was very calm and gentle, and they did great together! We would definitely love to have Ms. King take care of her again!
Liz and Neil were wonderful with our dog who is always very anxious with new people. It’s always hard to find someone you can trust who cares for your pets the way you do, and I’m so glad we found them. We really appreciated the many photo, video and text updates throughout the day - they were always responsive and kept us well informed of how Cleo was doing. They even accommodated a later pick up than anticipated, the flexibility was truly appreciated. We would recommend them without a doubt!
Pete was a terrific host for Hank! Hank and Fudge got along wonderfully and became great buddies. Pete kept Hank on his regular schedule, made sure he got plenty of enjoyable walks, and treated him like one of the family. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Hank was genuinely sad to say goodbye to both Pete and Fudge. We wouldn't hesitate to have Hank stay with Pete again!
David is fantistic with my dog, Cassey. Cassey is getting older. David takes great care of her and caters to her every need. I got many pictures of Cassey during her stay at David's. Cassey is very calm and content when she's at David's. It's like her second home. I am very relaxed on my vacation knowing David it taking care of Cassey. She's always in good hands when she's with David. Thanks David for your kindness and calmness with Cassey.
We were so thankful Kristin was able to watch our Golden Retriever, Rylie, on short notice! She has such a calm, easygoing personality that instantly made us feel comfortable leaving Rylie with her. You can tell she truly loves what she does and genuinely cares about the animals in her care. She also checked in a couple of times each day with adorable pictures and little updates, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was such a great experience, and we’d absolutely book with Kristin again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl! 🐾💕
Andrea was AMAZING! I never had to worry about Enzo at all, I knew he was in great hands. Andrea was a great communicator, sent updates and photos, took him on walks and played fetch (his favorite thing ever) and treated him as if he was hers. The only thing I worried about was if he was going to want to come back home with me! Highly recommend!
Jessica was great with Teddy, my golden retriever, when he boarded with her. She sent updates and photos daily and seemed to treat him just like her own dogs. I trust her completely and won't hesitate to have Teddy stay with her in the future. I highly recommend this wonderful sitter.
Yiru is an incredibly responsible and thoughtful sitter! She took wonderful care of Rosie and kept me updated with photos throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up times. Yiru is extremely polite and easy to communicate with—I felt completely comfortable leaving Rosie in her hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Burlington is $70 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $90 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,020 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Burlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Burlington can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Burlington home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Burlington.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Burlington. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Burlington sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
