About: *Hanscom AFB Access* I've been an animal lover my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages and personalities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, needs, and quirks, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just having a calm companion nearby, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to details, and I'll follow your care instructions closely to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I'll care for your pets as if they were my own while keeping you updated with plenty of photos and messages for peace of mind. As someone who works on Hanscom Air Force Base and has base access, I'm in a unique position to provide convenient, dependable pet care for military and civilian families on base. I can easily stop by for early morning, lunchtime, and afternoon visits during the week, and I'm also available for flexible check-ins throughout the weekend. Whether you're at work, traveling, or TDY, I'll make sure your pet receives attentive, reliable care. I work four days a week, which allows me to offer early morning, lunchtime, and afternoon check-ins throughout the week. I live nearby and have a flexible schedule, making it easy to provide reliable care and keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. On weekends, I have even more availability for multiple visits and extra quality time with your pet. During every drop-in visit, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, playtime, walks if requested, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection based on your pet's personality and preferences. I respect your home as if it were my own, making sure doors are securely locked, everything is left clean and tidy, and your pet's routine stays as consistent as possible. I'll also send updates and photos after each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.

“Sara was a great pet sitter for our dogs and cats. She was very responsive and went the extra mile offering to make some rice for one of our dogs when she wasn't feeling well. Luckily our dog was feeling much better by the end of the day. She communicated with pictures after every visit. I highly recommend her and we will call on her again the next time we have a need for a sitter.”

Ray is happy we're back, but I can see he misses James now!! Thank you, James - you are awesome!”

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish.

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.

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 Burlington 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 Burlington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
