“As we just moved to a new place and did not find a cat sitter yet. After reading the positive reviews we decided to reach out to Kimm & Kenn S. Kimm has been such a treasure during our time away. From the get go she communicated very timely, clearly and really wanted to make sure she understood what we were looking for. Throughout our time away she kept us up to date on our cat's wellbeing. We are so happy she took care of our furry friend and will definitely reach out again in the future. Thank you, Kimm!”
“Amanda took excellent care of our two cats! She communicated and provided updates. We had an issue with our key copy and she was very patient and flexible while we got it resolved. I really recommend Amanda!”
“James is the best!!! Very communicative, provides full run through of activities and behaviors during the visit. He is very loving to the dogs and takes lots of photos and videos! Will 100% book again.”
“Rosemary was an amazing caretaker for our two cats while we were out of town! She was always on time for check-ins, gave detailed reports of her visit & tons of photos. She went above and beyond caring for our cats (and finding them in their many hiding spots); we couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience.”
About: I have grown up with dogs of all different breeds and sizes throughout my life and they have become a constant part of my life. My parents, aunts, and uncles have always had dogs growing up as well, and they truly become members of the family. I have watched all my families dogs and also worked at petsmart in the pet hotel for three years. I expect the high level of care that I have given my pets when I have looked for care for my own animals. I have watched dogs through rover now for around three years and have plenty of great reviews . We love having dogs of all sizes and breeds and our dog blue loves all dogs that come over to stay

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.
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had pets, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. Caring for them taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each pet's unique personality. I know that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care based on their individual needs and routine. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, interactive play, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their daily schedule, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Communication is very important to me. I'll send regular photo and video updates, along with messages about how your pet is doing, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I'm available for last-minute bookings whenever possible. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I'm happy to follow your pet's feeding schedule, medication routine, and any special instructions. I am currently working part time and have sufficient extra time to care for your kitten or cats! My availability is before 11 am and after 1pm daily. I have an apartment with a yard to walk around within gated community if needed. Additionally, it is on the ground floor for convenience or easy access.

About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds throughout my life. From dogs and cats to snakes and chinchillas, I have experienced it all! I have over a year of experience working alongside a wonderful pet sitting company that has taught me everything there is to know about our furry friends. Before that, I have experience with my own pups! I've had Chihuahuas, a Husky, and a Jack Russel, so there is truly no task I am unwilling to take on. I am always trying to grow and educate myself on behavior in pets! I currently work at a Pet Servicing company, working weekdays from 10am-3pm. I am fully available on the weekends, and anytime in the morning or nights on weekdays. That leaves plenty of time to hang out and care for your beloved furry family! I am here to take care of your fur babies and absolutely nothing more. Any information you provide me with will be kept solely to myself, and will be 100% safe. If there is any specific tasks you need me to perform around the household, I will always be willing to help!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats at places like farms and apartments to even a houseboat! More than happy to ebb and flow with whatever you and your pets need to have a seamless crossover! Currently working first shift at an assisted living community, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets so it doesn't feel like a beat has been missed while you're away. I will treat your pets exactly how you would, I believe that they truly thrive when they get to stay in their typical environment and routines.

I love puppies but they must be house trained. My wife and I both work from home. I am self employed so I make my own hours and that allows me to provide exceptional care to your dog. We have a 2 year old French bull dog who is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs.Because I am an animal lover and giving back is so important to me I WILL DONATE 5% of my earnings to The MSPCA! I have a fenced in yard and we live on a quiet dead end street. The park is 2 minutes from our home and we go there often to allow our dog to play.I never have more than 3 dogs in my house at once which allows me to give your dog my undivided attention and love. Your dog will always be safe, happy and very well cared for.
“We had a great experience with Annette! She took the time to come beforehand and learn our guinea pigs’ routine, which we really appreciated. She was reliable, attentive, and took great care of them while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“We booked Claudine for a last minute trip and she was very easy to communicate with through the app. We needed someone to come by and give our cat some attention while we were gone and she did just that! We received some updates after her visits and felt better knowing someone was checking in.”
“My dog is not a very easy going dog if you first meet her but she loves Rebecca the first time they met. Rebecca did a really great job taking care of our dog and cat and our home. We are really impressed and grateful for her and would highly recommend!”

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.
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.
