About: Hi, I am Meg! I love any and all animals! I have 2 years of both dog and cat sitting experience and grew up taking care of cats. I enjoy creative and interactive activities and also have light experience in exotic pet care. I am also a nursing student, so I am trained in emergency situations if need be. No matter the pet, you’re in great hands! I’m a nursing student at UNC Chapel Hill looking for part time pet care! I love any and all animals and thought this would be a rewarding side gig along with school! My number one priority is safety. Whether we’re inside the home or out for an adventure, your pet is in safe hands! Please keep me informed on any additional safety measures or accommodations we can make!!
“Angela was wonderful. The dogs immediately loved her, the space is fantastic, she was responsive and kept me up to date the whole time I was away. Totally recommend.”
“Hannah was wonderful with our pup, Blazey, who was a first-time boarder. She was patient and gentle with Blazey and gave her time to acclimate to the new surroundings. Blazey is a rescue from a breeding lab so she takes a lot of care and patience and is not fond of change. Hannah sent us pictures everyday, sometimes several times a day, which greatly eased our minds. Blazey was glad to see us when we got back but it's such a comfort to know she was taken care of just like she was at home! Thank you, Hannah! We will definitely be asking for help again.”
“David was amazing! Lucky enough, we were traveling and we put in the request for a sitter pretty late, David was so understanding and took the time to build rapport and sent photos of our fur baby while we were away for the day and kept us up to date by telling us even small details of how our dog was settling in. I could tell my dog fit right in with David and had no issues at all. Would absolutely recommend and book David again!”
“Lisa and Jeff are wonderful! I got daily updates, usually more than once a day, with lots of pictures and videos sent each day. They are such caring folks who helped to ease my anxiety of leaving my dog. Glad I found such great people to care for her.”
“I can't say enough great things about Michaela! She is caring, reliable, and attentive. My dog had a great time while I was away, and Michaela kept me updated with photos and videos. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our pup Lizard loved her time at Shannon's, exploring the lovely backyard and hanging out with Shannon's pack! Shannon was a great host, very responsive to our messages, and always spoiling Lizard. Lizard will definitely be back!”
“This was my first time using this service and I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with Ashlee, she sent me great pictures and her services was 10/10. I will definitely be using her again and referring others.”
“Dessie took great care of our dogs. She took them to the dog park and sent us updates daily. She also gave us a nice bag of treats, doggie bags, and a nice letter! I could tell my dogs were super happy with their stay and well taken care of”
“Alicia and Matt was great! They sent pics of Nyla daily while we were away. That really made me feel good knowing she was in good hands. We will definitely be using them again!”
About: Hi, I have a passion for animals and I make sure they are well cared for! I go the extra mile to make sure they don’t feel sad while you are away. Hi! I am a mom of 3 and a nanny but I still pet sit. Sometimes I have to bring my kids and the kids I care for with me. I make sure they don’t damage anything. They are pampered with plenty of love! I treat them as part of the family and make sure to take pictures to send to the family.
“Kelly was absolutely wonderful with our dog Shadow. We were very nervous about leaving him at first as he is nervous of most people. But we left him in wonderful hands and he soon fell in love with Kelly and all her dogs. We really appreciated all the photos and updates to calm our nerves as well. Thank you Kelly!”
“Denise was a true gem. She cared for my little guy, who is almost 15 years old, like he was one of her own children. Alfonso was very content with Denise, and I would trust her to take care of him again.”
“Dapeng was a phenomenal sitter for Buster. He’s so attentive and makes sure your pet is completely comfortable. Dapeng is one of the best at sending pictures and updates. He loved taking Buster on long walks and made sure he had the most fun time. I’ll be sure to be using Dapeng again if he’s not booked up since he’s in such high demand! Thanks again !”
“Keyana saved the day after our usual dog sitter had to back out last second. She was very responsive and did a great job of following the directions we laid out for her. Would highly recommend Keyana to anyone considering!”

Lakonka was absolutely amazing. I needed a sitter at the last minute and she took Cannon right in. She was so sweet and easy to work with. He was loved on so much and taken care of like one of their own. I got lots of updates and pictures. Cannon had the best time, he was ready to sleep when he got home!
Anna was awesome. First of all she was so accommodating to a change in schedule last minute. Lucy absolutely loves Anna. I received lots of photos and videos and updates on Lucy. This was her first time staying with someone so we were nervous. Anna will be my go to dog sitter from here on out!!!
David was amazing! Lucky enough, we were traveling and we put in the request for a sitter pretty late, David was so understanding and took the time to build rapport and sent photos of our fur baby while we were away for the day and kept us up to date by telling us even small details of how our dog was settling in. I could tell my dog fit right in with David and had no issues at all. Would absolutely recommend and book David again!
I had the pleasure of hiring Danielle to watch Harmony for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with her care. She took excellent care of Harmony, keeping her happy and comfortable. Danielle was very communicative, checking in with me throughout the stay and sending adorable pictures of Harmony. It was such a relief to know my senior dog was in good hands. I will definitely be a repeat customer and highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Janie and her fur babies are wonderful! Janie is so caring. Sent pictures of Brandi. I appreciate her doing that. We don’t get to travel much, but whenever we do, I will definitely check with Janie first, and hope that she will be available. Thanks to Janie and Rover! Kathy Erdman

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Burlington is $35 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 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.
There are 740 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Burlington. About 94% of Burlington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
