About: For the past few years now I’ve been a dog sitter for my family and friends, walking, playing, feeding, and cleaning up after them I can house sit, dog walk, and do drop in visits, Any time of the day Mondays to Fridays, And weekends if needed anything works. I get to learn pets usually routine. How many times a day to walk them, when and how to feed them, and their bed time.
“James dropped in on our cat for us while we were away for a weekend and did an amazing job! From sending hilarious pictures and videos while spending quality play time with her to going above and beyond by dealing with some house issues that arose, we could not have felt that she was better taken care of. And I think she found a new best friend!”
About: I've been a dog sitter for over a decade, on top of having my own pets as well. I've watched dogs as small as shih tzus and yorkies, to dogs as big pit bulls and labs. I am pretty active and love to go on walks, and would love to bring your dog with me! I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibility throughout the day to help take care of your pets! I am available for daytime walks or check-ins almost everyday, and available to house sit any time as long as you reach out in advance! I have house-sat for friends and family for over 10+ years, and feel very comfortable saying that I have always been a clean, respectful house guest. I am a non-smoker; and I would prioritize your comfort and privacy while staying in your home, ensuring your pet is well cared for when I am there.
“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Rosemary is THE BEST. She gives great updates (and the cutest pictures!) while watching our cats and I feel at ease leaving town knowing she is taking amazing care of them. She truly goes above and beyond!”
“Tawana took amazing care of my senior cat with health issues and navigated the various medications like an absolute pro. I am looking forward to working with her again.”
“She was absolutely wonderful caring for our cats while we were away. She checked in reliably, handled everything we asked, and gave us real peace of mind while traveling. On top of that, one of our senior cats had an emergency during the visit, and she handled the entire situation with so much care, calm, and thoughtfulness. It was an incredibly stressful situation for us to manage from afar, and she was genuinely helpful every step of the way. Her care for animals is obvious, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable cat sitter.”
“Yuting was super easy to communicate with and extremely prompt on her reply (especially with myself needing the check-in about 40 minutes ahead of schedule). On top of that, I had complete peace of mind that she was the one checking in on my old man (cat), especially after reading her profile and a brief chat with her. Extremely happy she had availability for me, and definitely will be booking again!”
“Courtney is fantastic! Responsive, thorough and caring is what comes to mind. She visited our 11 year old tabby cat, Numbers while we were gone over the 4th of July holiday (we live in Bedford, MA). Following each visit, she would text me to let me know everything was okay at home. I also asked her to water our garden, which she happily did as well as collect our mail. Highly recommend Courtney and looking forward to using her when we travel again soon. I know our kitty is in great hands with her!”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I adjust my care to match their energy levels, medical needs, and routines. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and any night after 4 pm. There will always be a trusted adult at home to keep your furry friend happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard and a border collie living at home. He is extremely friendly and his best friend is my brother's teacup Yorkie, so he gets along with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments!
About: I’ve been caring for my in-laws’ Tibetan Terrier for the past few years, and along the way I completely fell in love with pet care. Spending time with Cooper has taught me how special the bond between pets and their people can be, and I truly enjoy giving animals the love, attention, and care they deserve. I can’t wait to welcome and care for more pets as if they were my own! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, I can easily adapt to each pet’s schedule and needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, cared for, and never alone. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home or a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, and I keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Since I work from home, I’m able to be very attentive and responsive to their needs throughout the day.

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.
