Dog Sitting Burlington

About: I've owned family dogs for the past 20 years and have been walking friends/neighbors dogs for 2 summers. Alongside my family I have trained our 2 year old pit bull. I love all breeds of dogs I'm currently a student and working part-time during the week. I have full availability during the weekends to play and take care of your pets and availability before 11am during the week. I have a one floor house with no other pets, a little park right outside my house and a wonderful neighborhood to go on walk in. I have the room to be able to crate your pet if needed and three dog loving roommates who can give snuggles whenever needed.

“Lacy is great with Chester, our special needs dog. He took to her right away, and she spends time with him during the day when we can't, takes him outside to do his business, and is very accommodating. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m also studying veterinary medicine, giving me a strong understanding of animal health and behavior. Over the years, I’ve dog sat for many families, caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities while you’re away. I work part time and I have a yard and a full apartment where an animal could be very comfortable in. I’m very active and take many walks throughout the day. I have a lot of space in our home. A lot of space for a dog bed or crate to be in the bedroom or even sleep in the bed. I have a private yard that is set away from the street and other neighbors with friendly dogs. I follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Kate, and I’m a college student at the University of Vermont studying Child Psychology. I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I have 4 years of experience dog sitting and caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Through my experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and attention are when caring for someone’s pet. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, relaxing company, or sticking to a specific routine, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I’m responsible, dependable, and communicative, and I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I always prioritize safety, follow owners’ instructions closely, and make sure pets receive lots of attention and affection while you’re away. I also have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule, which allows me to be dependable and accommodating whenever possible. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, whether that means early morning walks, consistent feeding schedules, playtime, medication routines, or overnight care. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I always try to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. Some pets need lots of activity and attention, while others prefer a calmer environment and a consistent routine. I’m happy to be flexible and work with owners to make sure their pets receive the care, attention, and routine they’re used to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I know pets feel safest in their familiar environment, so I make sure to follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, crate routines, and any specific preferences or needs. I always make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while their owners are away. I also keep the home clean and respectful, provide regular updates when wanted, and prioritize safety at all times. My goal is to help pets feel relaxed, cared for, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in dependable hands.

About: (I am currently unavailable for new bookings Thursday through Sunday.) My name is Casey, I'm a student majoring in creative writing, and I'm looking to expand my house sitting portfolio. I have been a dog walker and house sitter for three clients/families in 2025 so far and love popping by for walks every two hours with your pup. Size, barking, and puppy-ness are non-issues! I have extreme patience and good shoulders. My grandma always told me to leave the house you're visiting neater than when you got there, so I have an eye for cleanliness and I don't want you to feel like someone has been living in your home when you come back. I.E. I will ask you if I can vacuum. I'm starting school in the fall at Vermont State University in Johnson, so I am free to book any time this summer, unless I have another doggie booked that day. I'm a list maker so I like to write down your instructions when we have a formal introduction. Food, walks, potty time, play time, training, and housekeeping will all be done to your standard.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs. I started my first dog walking business when I was 8 years old walking dogs in my neighborhood and have been dog walking and pet sitting ever since. I grew up with both easy going and mellow dogs as well as very difficult dogs and have lots of experience training with dogs, especially dogs with behavioral issues. I have my own dog as well who loves other dogs and is happy to have them around! I pet sit regularly for a handful of people mainly in the mad river valley and have been recommended to many. I love dogs and am great with them! I work hybrid/remote so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule and can do my best to work with you to best for your dogs needs! I keep dogs safe and happy. I am an active person, so if the dog enjoys it I would take them for hikes, walks, runs, etc. in the home I like to be respectful of the dogs space but also make sure they are stimulated and having fun. I do not have a fence on my yard so in my yard dogs are leashed and supervised.

About: I have taken care of pets most of my life. I have had dogs since I was 5 and am comfortable with dogs of all backgrounds and sizes. I know that every pet has a unique personality, needs, and quirks, and I take the time to get to know each one. My goal is to provide easygoing, loving care that helps your pet feel secure, happy, and relaxed while you are away. I'm currently a college student interning at Williston Recreation and Parks for the summer. I have a pretty consistent schedule, though there are sometimes last-minute changes. Most of the time, I have a pretty consistent schedule and work 4 hours a day, usually in the morning and sometimes into the early afternoon. So the afternoon would be great time-wise. When it comes to dogs, their safety is my top priority. I put in the effort to make sure every pup in my care has a happy, healthy, and safe experience. I stick to their routines, keep things clean and secure, and always treat each dog with love and patience. Good communication is key, so I’m always up for sharing updates and keeping you in the loop!

“Beatrice helped us out last minute with some check-ins during the work week. She always gave us a rover card with pictures and info about the walk/play date!”

About: I’ve been taking care of family dogs as well as those of friends, neighbours, and extended family for about 15 years. I’m a lover of dogs of all sizes and breeds, and doing activities from walking, hiking, running, playing and even just chilling on the couch! Over the last couple of years I’ve been watching a few different senior dogs over night for long periods of time, providing medications and other remedies they may need. Hello! My name is Harry, I live in the Burlington area and specialize in nature/adventure focused pet care. I love going on runs, hiking, swimming, road trips and walks with pets of all ages, sizes, and outdoor ability. I’m currently free just about any day to help care for your furry family members, shoot me a message and I’d be happy to chat more about the kinds of services I can provide :-) I currently live in the South End of Burlington next to a large park, the bike path, and the waterfront. I have enough space here for your pet to run around and play either solo or with my other furry friends. Inside my home I have the ability to care for three to four pets at once based on size as my partner and I have several rooms in our apartment for your pet to lounge, play, and enjoy themselves! In regards to care in your home, I am able to stay over night, check in daily or even just walk your pet when needed! I have a car so I can meet just about anywhere and I’m happy to take your pet on little adventures if desired. I love to stay active so playing, walking, hiking, running and swimming are some of my favourite activities to do! However if needed I can kick my feet up and be a homebody for the more lazy pups.

About: My family grew up with dogs and cats; the animals are treated as family. Pet sitting (and baby sitting) were part of the routine from early on. My Consulting work is done remotely, which makes my schedule flexible for Rover assignments, and, additionally leaves ample Time for getting out on the trails with tails. I enjoy being out-of-doors, and hope that some time outside is part of your furriends’ daily care plan. I believe in sticking to the schedule that clients have established with their animals for meals, toileting, play time and quiet rest.

“Thank you for taking such great care of our cats while we were away!! Emma is very communicative and responsible and we would definitely book with her again.”

“Jessie was great with my dog Mr. Bear. She sent plenty of updates and photos and followed his care instructions. Mr. Bear is looking forward to her next visit.”

About: I have had doggos in my life since I was a kiddo. I currently have 4 dogs in the home each with their own personality, 1 blue heeler (4 yrs old), 1 black lab (5 yrs old), 1 pit bull mix (2 yrs old) and 1 yellow Labrador (14 yrs old.). Having 4 dogs in one home has really taught me how to read different behaviors, making sure they all feel respected and loved, I’ve learned to always keep them trained with commands and above all to make sure they’ve gotten their energy out. I currently only work 8 hour shifts on Wednesday and Fridays, all other days in the week I am available to care for your pet/s. I make sure to follow every instruction provided when caring for a pet in someone’s home. The pet’s human knows them best and it’s essential to follow all instructions to a tee. I make sure to be present with the animal during all aspects of the visit including play/free time. I’m very careful and safe with animals and I try to make sure the dog/cat’s needs are met before leaving the home.

“Janelle was communicative really super with our cat. Will rebook if needed. Thanks Janelle!”

“Christine was amazing!! It always feels so good to leave a pet in the capable hands of a friendly, caring person. She was on time and followed instructions - with a puppy that can be a challenge at times so I truly appreciate the effort. Thanks so much- I will definitely reach out again if I need help with Zoey again”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards, and plants! I am also great in a crisis and have experience bringing sick animals to veterinary hospitals. As a school teacher, I work on weekdays and arrive at home close to 4:30pm each day. I’m available for dog walking or feeding animals after school and available for longer care on weekends. In a clients home, I will care for the animal and the house as requested. I am very communicative and am always professional and respectful.

“We had a great experience with Hannah! She was incredibly responsive, sent lots of pictures, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’d absolutely recommend her and book with her again!”

Scott & Michelle A.

“Abby was so great! She came over to my house prior to sitting so I could meet her and show her where everything was. It made me feel so comfortable, as I’ve never had a sitter before. She was great with my animals and even watered my plants for me while I was gone. I will absolutely be using her again and so should you!”

About: I have been my friends and some families go to house and pet sitter for a very long time. While I mostly have experience with cats and dogs I like to take care of all pets. I like to take pictures to catch the funny moments. While I am in school this give good flexibility for dropins/walking and overnight stays letting me easily fit into you and your pets schedule. While I can't take care of your pet in my home, I can do house sitting and dropins/walks. I am familiar with complex nutrition requirements for different animals as well.
