“Brittany and her husband were amazing. They made our pup, Alaska, super comfortable from the initial meet and greet and let her roam around their house. You can tell how much they love dogs and they treated her like their own. Alaska has a ton of energy and they kept her busy with lots of playtime and walks and they even did some training. She’s very observant of all of Alaska’s habits and asked really great question to really establish the best stay for Alaska. Brittany stayed in contact and sent photos and videos throughout Alaska’s stay which made me feel super assured that my pup was not only safe, but legitimately having the time of her life. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again.”
“Annika, John, and Pepper are perfect sitters for our shy dog! She gets lots of time to play/explore, spoiled with cuddles, and loves going over there. They’re always communicative throughout the stay.”
“My furbabies were doing great with her. I love that she send pictures to us while we were far from them. She got 2 furbabies too but they got along the four of them! I will definitely use Jocelyn again as my dog sitter for my furbabies!”
“Paula is a dog person thru and thru and I loved knowing my Lily pug was safe in her care. Will use Paula again :) Thank you again for taking such good care of our lily pug!”
“Jane & Justin provided excellent care for our dog! They communicated very well, sent pics and went above and beyond providing care. We definitely will rebook with them when we have the opportunity!”
“Best sitter ever! My dog Cowboy loves True and their family. I appreciate all of the pictures and videos True sends when watching Cowboy which verifies just how much fun he is having there. Her vet tech experience has been a nice plus!”
“Debbie was fantastic! I was so happy Buttercup had the best boarding experience while we were gone on our trip. She made sure to take down important notes and always kept me updated on how things were going. I felt so comfortable knowing my baby girl was with someone I can trust and was getting daily attention. Thanks again for all you done Debbie and Ron! 🙂”
About: I’m a dog owner and lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I have a 7-year-old Shiba Inu of my own, so I understand the quirks of independent, strong-willed breeds. I work from home which means your dog gets consistent attention throughout the day rather than sitting alone for hours. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Your pup will be well exercised, well loved, and well cared for. I work fully remote from home, meaning your dog gets consistent company and attention throughout the entire day. No long hours alone. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can accommodate last minute requests. Walks happen morning and evening, and as needed with plenty of downtime in between. Your dog will be staying in my clean, comfortable apartment where they’ll be treated like family. I’m an experienced dog owner with a Shiba Inu of my own, so I understand dog behavior and body language well. I keep a calm, structured environment and will always communicate with you about how your pup is doing. Your dog’s safety and comfort is my priority.
“Brenda was great with my dog! she had multiple daily walks, lots of enrichment and Brenda has a nice fenced backyard for dogs too! Daily updates and pictures! Would definitely have her watch my dog again!”
“Got the cutest pics and videos of Ash enjoying his time with the whole crew 😊 he was super content and very well cared for. I'm going to have to find my trips are gone so he has an excuse to head over there again”
“Lisa sent adorable pictures everyday. She walked Honey Boy 3x day! That’s more often than we even walk him. She offered to brush him. She came to our place to meet him before he stayed with her. She problem solved with me when he was challenging. She was communicative, kind and just has a welcoming demeanor. I felt very comfortable with Honey staying with her while I was out of town and that really makes a difference in how our trip goes. Thank you, Lisa!”
“We are so grateful for Chaun for taking such great care of our Gus over Christmas! We got regular updates that were thoughtful and fun, and he seemed to have a blast with her own pups (and kitty). He came home tired and happy- thank you again for your care, Chaun!”
“Oh what a wonderful sitter. Ms. Allison communicated and kept me inform of my little guys day. Cozy home, active and would 100% book again. She really exudes peace and comfort.”
About: Dogs are very much a part of our family! We only board one dog at a time, so your pup will get lots of individual attention and truly feel like part of the family. My husband and I both work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention and won’t spend long stretches alone. We have a large backyard with an 8-foot fence, offer potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and take at least two walks a day at the large park across the street. We’re dog lovers and have a Golden Retriever of our own. He had knee surgery last year, so we’re also comfortable caring for dogs who need a little extra attention, including administering medications and following special care instructions. We also have a 6-year-old at home, so we’re a good fit for dogs who are comfortable around young children and other dogs. Our goal is pretty simple: to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while you’re away. With both of us working from home, taking care of dogs is already a part of our daily routine. We offer boarding and doggy day care seven days a week. Your pup will be treated like part of the family, with freedom to relax throughout our home and enjoy our large, fenced backyard with real grass. We can also easily accommodate crate routines, and our Golden Retriever makes a great companion for visiting pups.
“Elaine and her husband and her kids were just what manny needed for the holidays! He had a family away from his family. She sent us photos and let us know how he was doing and we picked him up we heard compliments from his stay 🥰 I’m so glad they both had great time!”
About: I specialize in caring for very small, senior, "sensitive" dogs who need 1:1 love and attention. My late dog, Smidgey (Rat Terrier mix rescue who lived to be 15+ years old -- the "+" is because the shelter didn't know how old she was when she was rescued) taught me compassion, patience, and how to find humor and joy in caring for these Silver Muzzled cuties. I work from home so I have time to care for your Sugar-faced furry friend on weekdays. I do occasionally need to run errands - though I am never away from home for more than 2 hours at a time. I'm also available for boarding on weekends. I specialize in older, very small, sensitive dogs that need extra TLC. My focus is on giving senior, small dogs a warm, safe environment to rest and relax. My work is primarily on the computer, so having a wise companion accompany me during my day would enhance my life as much as theirs. I love to break up my workday with frequent short walks with these Vintage Pups.

My dog had a fantastic time staying with Jill and Gregory. They were very accommodating even with last minute changes. Their dog is an absolute joy, he and my dog got along super well too. If you have a high energy dog, their yard and playful dog is a perfect fit. Will definitely book again!

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.

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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 OR 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.
